'Huh?' Glenn froze after greeting the guest, 'I just guessed'.
But Leila had already started talking: "She was really scared that day. God bless her. Poor Bonnie. Since that day, she has been quiet and withdrawn. We've all tried to cheer her up, but it's no use. Her mother is even more worried. She has visited her at school more than once. Sometimes she hides in a corner and sheds tears in silence. I have seen her.
If I hadn't taken her with me, none of this would have happened. It's all my fault...'
As the compassionate little girl spoke, her eyes filled with tears and Glenn quickly gave a wry smile of reassurance:
'How could it be your fault? You're a good girl, we all know that, right?
He said as he winked at the three teenagers behind him who, after a few seconds of inertia, nodded in agreement.
Glenn was very pleased and continued to comfort them, 'So it's not your fault. If you want to blame someone, blame...'
Blame me! Damn it! Glenn suddenly realised that he was the one who had caused all this. He coughed twice to stop himself talking, 'Anyway, it'll be all right. Time will heal everything. Trust me...'
Let's go see the little girl today. It's all my fault... Glenn thought to himself.
Yes, Leila, don't worry too much. Bonnie will be fine,' the red-haired Bork said in time.
The others also offered words of comfort.
Even Pernas wanted to come over, but after holding out her hand, she didn't move.
As Leila's mood improved, Glenn glanced into the distance and teased, "Okay, this young lady in fancy clothes seems to be running out of patience.
His voice was loud enough for the blonde girl to hear, which was intentional.
But when she heard it, Pernas craned her neck and gave a soft snort, like a proud swan.
Leila felt even more embarrassed at this point, but Glenn had already said what he wanted to say and she didn't want to stay and interfere with the other person's business.
I'm sorry, I'll speak well of her, please don't hold this against her,' Leila bowed and then left with her friend.
Glenn waved with a smile before bowing his head and continuing with his business.
Once they were some distance away, Boke couldn't help but ask, 'Layla, how do you know this gentleman? And what happened between you and Bonnie? You don't say anything no matter what I ask...'
Layla pursed her lips. She was extremely reluctant to come out. Her father's threat had not yet been lifted and she did not feel safe coming out like this. Even though the city's police had been patrolling more frequently lately, so that she would not have any problems on the streets, the worry was always in her heart and would not go away.
Had it not been for the worried looks of her friends, she would not have agreed to go out with them just to reassure them.
Now that Boke had asked, she knew she could no longer play dumb, so she whispered what had happened when she had met her father.
Her friends were shocked, and Pernas went so far as to come over and take her hand, her eyes full of concern and worry. This is terrible! How could you not tell us when something like this happened to you? You must be very worried at the moment. Come and stay with me for a few days, bring Bonnie with you and the guards at home will protect you.
Leila felt the other person's genuine concern, and her resentment towards the other person also subsided a lot. She shook her head and said, 'I'm not going. My mother needs me. I'd rather take Bonnie, she needs me more.
'That's OK, your mother can...' Pernas tried to persuade her, but the other person obviously didn't want to talk about it anymore, so she had to drop the subject.
...
After sending off a few boys and girls, Glenn's butchery business continued as usual.
In the course of an unintentional conversation with a customer, Glenn also heard about what had happened in the town recently.
It turned out that there had been several cases of children going missing, causing panic among many families. The families of the victims often went to the police station to make a scene, and the pressure had led to the phenomenon on entering the town.
It seems that Layla's father is involved. If they can, they may not even spare teenage boys and girls. Human traffickers? It's not surprising that it's rampant in this era... Glenn was a little distracted as he thought about this incident during his break.
I'll think about it again when I get a chance,' he muttered to himself as he stretched.
He had hated these human traffickers in his previous life and if he came across them, he would definitely hit them hard and not tolerate them.
Boss, how much is the meat?
A pleasant voice rang out, bringing Glenn back to reality.
'One bella four...' Glenn said subconsciously, but his expression froze when he saw the person standing in front of the stall.
It was a very beautiful woman, wearing an exquisite wide-brimmed woman's hat, a simple but luxurious long dress and black lace gloves on her hands.
Her skin was very white, unnaturally so, and her lips were bright red. She stuck out like a sore thumb.
She looked at Glenn with a half-smile on her face.
'You're not quite normal, young lady...' Glenn asked, raising an eyebrow.
The young lady's smile froze at the question. She had expected countless reactions, but this one took her by surprise.
'Ha...' She brushed the hair from her ears and her smile remained, "Why don't you tell me what's so abnormal about me?
Not only her appearance, but also her smell gave Glenn an extremely abnormal feeling and the blood in his body stirred slightly. If the other person had the scent of the small town of Bayek, Glenn might not be surprised, after all, there were no surprises about what kind of freak was on this side, but the other person did not.
There is nothing abnormal about you," Glenn replied with nonsense.
'You...' Miss Irregular's pretty eyes were half closed, as if she was trying to see through Glenn. Suddenly she put her hand on the counter, her bright red lips close to Glenn's ear, and whispered, "You're not normal either, Mr Werewolf.
Oh, you noticed, I'm so surprised," Glenn said with a grin.
The lady across from him was once again taken aback by Glenn's reaction, and then she was actually a little annoyed. A mere werewolf pretending to be something in front of her.
But she suppressed the small anger in her heart. It was absolutely inferior to get angry in front of the enemy, she had to remain elegant.
A werewolf actually sells pork in a human city, is it because your leader can't afford you anymore? The lady with the abnormal appearance sneered as she ran her fingers over the pieces of pork.
What kind of person is he? Judging by his appearance, he looks like a vampire, but it's broad daylight and vampires are afraid of sunlight, right? A very powerful vampire? Glenn watched the other's every move and asked casually:
'Leader? What leader?
'You're a stray wild dog! !' Miss Unusual's eyes widened, and this time her surprise was obvious.
'Try calling me that again! Glenn glared.
But the other person ignored his threat and actually giggled, covering her mouth with one hand as her shoulders continued to shake.
Glenn's look at her suddenly changed to one of madness.
After laughing for a while, as if she had had enough, the lady looked back at Glenn and said something incoherent:
The old Wolf King would be very angry if he knew what you are doing now.
