Hello, Mr Werewolf.

Chapter 7: Layla

Can you tell me why you are standing here? Sir, it's okay if you don't want to answer. Glenn saw that the other person was quite talkative, so he continued to ask cautiously.

He didn't think he would get an answer, but unexpectedly the man spoke, his voice low and hoarse:

'I'm considering whether to save her or not. If I save her, I must go back to Dudu and find a clinic. If I don't save her, it's not good...'

'Er...' Glenn hadn't expected him to struggle with this. After a moment's thought, he said, 'Maybe I can help. If you're willing, you can help me get these things back to my house and I'll take this... lady to the clinic. What do you think?

The man simply nodded after a few seconds of silence.

Seeing this, Glenn smiled and held out his hand, 'Hello, my name is... Glenn Nybakru.

Thinking that he might not need to contact the original owner's acquaintances again, Glenn decided to change his name to his own, which didn't sound out of place in the local language anyway.

The man looked at Glenn's hand, shook it slowly and said, 'Black Raven'.

Black Raven? What a strange name. Looking at his expression, it didn't seem like he was referring to a nickname or anything... He couldn't help but sneer inwardly, but Glenn didn't show it.

He then told Black Raven where his house was and where he had hidden the key, without worrying about what the other person would do.

Firstly, there was nothing of value in his house, and secondly, he could see from Black Raven's actions that he was not a despicable person.

What's more, Glenn had already memorised Black Raven's scent, and with a werewolf's powerful sense of smell, he could easily find the other person.

As soon as Black Raven had taken his belongings, Glenn checked out the woman lying in the weeds.

She was a woman in her fifties, with slightly grey hair, deep wrinkles on her face and plain clothes, so it was obvious she was a commoner.

There was a little blood at the corner of her mouth and her exposed arms were covered in bruises, which told Glenn that she had been hit hard with a blunt object. There were also several cuts and bloodstains on her clothes, indicating that she had been stabbed, but the wounds were not deep and therefore not fatal.

After briefly tending to her wounds, Glenn picked her up and said to Black Raven, who was standing quietly nearby,

I'll go first, Mr Black Raven. Remember to deliver the things to my house.

After seeing the other man nod, he turned and left, and Glenn also walked towards Dudetown.

...

After saying goodbye to his friends, Leila returned home as usual, but when she saw the scene at home, she was stunned.

The furniture was all over the place, in a mess, as if someone had ransacked the place.

But that was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that her mother was not there.

Mummy! Mummy! Where are you? Oh God, please don't let anything happen to her!

Leila's tears flowed freely as she searched the house for her mother.

But there was no sign of her.

She rushed outside and asked the neighbours.

Perhaps hearing a noise, Mrs Mann, who lived opposite Leila's house, opened the door and met a frightened Leila. She seemed to understand what had happened and waved to Leila, saying

My dear girl, it's Bob. He's drunk and he beat up Mrs Deli in your house. I saw him chasing after your mother.

Dad! Layla's heart sank. God knows what that maniac would do to Mum!

Without thinking, Layla grabbed her simple skirt and ran in the direction Mrs Mann was pointing.

...

Carrying a person weighing over 100 kilos for ten kilometres was not difficult for Glenn these days.

Of course, ten kilometres was just an analogy; it was only two or three kilometres from the edge of town.

After some enquiries, the injured woman was finally taken to a private clinic.

The clinic had three doctors and two nurses. After the nurse had carried the person in, one of the doctors came up and asked:

'Are you the family member of the injured person?

No, I met the lady on the way here,' Glenn immediately shook his head and explained.

I see. Then would you be willing to cover the costs, sir?

'Sorry, I don't have any money on me. I'd rather wait until the lady wakes up and let her pay for it herself.

'...OK, sir.

Then Glenn waited here for a while, thinking it would be better to wait until the person woke up.

Soon a doctor told Glenn that the person had woken up. He got up and said, 'I'll go first...'

Just then, a familiar figure rushed into the clinic. As soon as the person entered the door, he grabbed Glenn's hand and said with teary eyes and panting, 'Sir, did you just bring in an injured lady on your back?

Leila? Why was she here? Glenn nodded blankly.

Duder Town is not a large town, but it is not a small one either. Many of the townspeople know each other, and Glenn, carrying a dying person covered in blood, was quite conspicuous as he walked down the street looking for a clinic.

Leila had searched the town for a long time, her tears almost dry, and was desperate when she suddenly heard someone tell her about Glenn. She felt hope returning and after writing down Glenn's physical description, she ignored her shortness of breath and lack of energy and ran to the clinic.

Laila, having received confirmation, rushed into the consulting room.

When she saw the frail figure lying on the bed, she rushed to the bed and could not stop sobbing:

"Mummy...

The woman in the bed also hugged Laila tightly and cried, 'My poor child...'.

Glenn stood outside with some doctors and nurses and watched quietly.

'What a touching scene,' a doctor exclaimed.

Yes...' two nurses agreed with tears in their eyes.

Glenn, on the other hand, looked as if he were deep in thought.

She really is a very pretty girl, with beautiful eyes, a pretty face and a pretty nose. No wonder the original owner noticed her and even knew her name so well... Glenn remembered the scene just now and made a mental comment.

Perhaps remembering that she also had a benefactor, Leila forced herself to calm down, took a few deep breaths and said something to her mother before slowly walking towards Glenn. Looking at Glenn with red, tear-filled eyes, she bowed her head and said,

Thank you, sir, really. If it hadn't been for you, I don't know what would have happened. So could you please leave me your address and I will come and thank you personally?

Seeing such a pretty girl begging him so gratefully, Glenn thought he should thank the Black Raven instead, but after thinking about it, he rejected the idea as he would have to explain it.

My home? You don't want to go there, you'll probably be scared to death when you get there... Glenn thought about refusing, but seeing the other person's attitude, he would not give up so easily, so he nodded and said,

Baiyake Town, go straight ahead after the main gate, you will see a villa and a large three-storey house, and my house is between them.

I'll have the beast protect it secretly, and there shouldn't be any problems... Gron thought to himself.

Upon hearing this, Leila's little face was full of happiness, and she bowed to Gron again, saying, "You are truly an incredibly kind gentleman.

Haha, you don't know what you're in for yet... Gron thought mischievously.

'Baiyek City?

The doctors and nurses around them looked at each other as if they had never heard of this city, which Gron had expected.

Seeing their puzzled expressions, Glenn simply said that it was a relatively remote place and excused himself.

The two towns were so close to each other that he didn't think anyone here knew about it. If Leila asked around properly, she would find out.
