Psy walked down the hall, staring at the floor. He was the only creature at his new school with a single eye. Whack! Psy bumped into Mark, the largest minotaur in the school.

赛伊盯着地面，沿着走廊往前走 他是这所新学校里独一无二的存在，长着一只眼睛 砰！ 赛伊撞到了马克，他是学校里块头最大的牛头人

Sorry, I didn't see you, Psy said. Can't you see at all, One Eye? Mark asked. Just then, Psy saw Medusa heading toward them. That gave him an idea. He'd been at school long enough to know about her powers.

“对不起，我刚才没看到你。”赛伊说。 “你是不是根本看不见啊，独眼怪？” 马克挑衅地问。 就在这时，赛伊看到美杜莎正朝他们这边走过来。 他突然想到了一个好主意。 他来学校有段时间了，早就知道美杜莎的特殊能力。

I actually see something really cool over there," Psy said. Mark turned to look, made eye contact with Medusa, and instantly turned to stone. Then, without thinking, Psy met Medusa's yellow eyes. He looked down at his hands in alarm. To his surprise, however, he was still just Psy.

“哎，我看到那边有个超酷的东西哦。”赛伊说。 马克立刻转头去看，刚好和美杜莎对上了眼，瞬间就变成了石头。 紧接着，赛伊下意识地也看向了美杜莎的黄色眼睛。 他慌慌张张地低头看向自己的手。 可让他意外的是，他好端端的，一点事都没有。

Ugh! Medusa turned someone to stone again, a student groaned. A group dragged Mark to the nurse's office. Medusa burst into tears and ran away. Sai raced after her. Outside, he found Medusa with her face buried in her hands.

“哎呀！美杜莎又把人变成石头了！”一个学生抱怨道。 一群学生把马克拖去了医务室， 美杜莎哇的一声哭出来，转身跑开了。 赛伊连忙追了出去， 在外面看到美杜莎正捂着脸哭呢。

Can I talk to you, Sai asked. Go away if you don't want to be turned into a statue, Medusa said. You looked me in the eye and I'm fine, Sai said. Maybe it's my eye. I can't be turned to stone.

“我能和你聊聊吗？”赛伊问。 “不想变成石头的话就赶紧走开。”美杜莎说。 “你刚才和我对视了呀，我一点事都没有哦。”赛伊说。 “说不定是因为我只有一只眼睛的缘故。” “我是不会被变成石头的。”
