Chapter 31: Where Are Her Eyeballs?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Everyone was surprised.

“What the hell, she’s not blind…”

When Mia sat down, Andrew Hall in the back row suddenly kicked her chair hard, cursing. “Why do you blindfold your eyes if you’re not blind, bitch?”

Then, he reached out to tear off the girl’s white cloth.

Mia turned her head with a jerk, and Andrew stiffened. His hand that was still holding the white cloth froze in the air, and panic gradually covered his face.

Screams broke out in the classroom.

Even Derek was also howling. “Oh my god!”

Awakened, Claire pulled off her earphone irritably.

She raised her head and followed his gaze.

In the front row, the new girl was facing Andrew.

In her eye sockets, the pupils were gone and there were only whites of the eyes, which looked quite creepy.

She looked like a zombie from the movies.

Almost scared out of his pants, Andrew threw the white cloth in the girl’s face. “Fuck off! Don’t fucking look at me!”

The girl picked up the white cloth from the ground and put it on silently.

The other students were all huddled up and had not yet recovered from the shock.

Derek asked Claire. “Where are her eyeballs?”

“Eaten.” Claire replied with rare patience.

Derek blinked. “By whom?”

Claire held her chin and said slowly, “There is a monster who eats the eyes of a certain kind of person. Do you want to know what kind of person it is?”

Derek asked like a curious baby. “Yes?”

Claire tilted her head and stared at him. “People who talk a lot.”

“…”

Restroom.

Claire turned on the faucet to wash her hands and glanced sideways at the skinny girl beside her, who was the new student who had just come today.

She bent over and rinsed her hair in the water. A large piece of chewing gum was stuck to the end of her hair. The white cloth was wet, outlining her eyes.

Back to the classroom.

Andrew put his legs on the desk with a wicked smile.

Someone next to him said, “You’re really bad. It’s not easy to get the gum off once it sticks to the hair.”

Andrew snorted coldly. “She scared the hell out of me, OK?”

Claire glanced at him coldly.

Class time.

The teacher was facing the blackboard and writing a formula.

Andrew raised his foot and kicked Mia’s ass fiercely.

Caught off guard, Mia fell to the ground together with the chair with a bang and hit her mouth on the ground.

Startled by the loud bang, the teacher whipped his head around. “Mia, are you okay? You can’t even sit properly?”

The whole class burst into laughter.

Without a word, Mia silently got up from the ground, picked up the chair, and sat down again.

When the class was over, Mia turned her head and her eyes that had no pupils but the whites looked straight at Andrew through the white cloth.

Feeling as though being electrified, Andrew shivered.

Can this bitch see or not?

“What are you looking at?” He snapped.

Mia didn’t move.

Andrew became furious. “I said don’t look at me! Are you not only blind but also deaf?”

He lunged to his feet, grabbed Mia’s long hair and smashed her head against the table.

The two loud bangs were scary to hear.

With blood dripping down from her forehead, Mia took out a tissue and covered the wound silently.

After school.

Claire left the school and didn’t walk in the direction of the Smiths’ mansion. After she went around a few street corners, there were fewer and fewer people.

She carried her school bag on one shoulder, put a hand in her pocket, and walked leisurely. The headphone cord was hung around her neck. She had headphones in one ear and not the other.

She said, “OK, I’ll be right there.”

On the other end of the line, a man’s gentle voice rang. “I’m shopping for groceries. What would you like to eat for dinner?”
