My Werewolf System-Novel

Chapter 788  School Reunion

Xin had decided to stay in the city of Slough for a while. She was on a break from her regular training before she would take on a big match. She wanted to spend time with her family and in this short period try to find any news on her brother as possible.

It was why she would constantly browse through the news channels, and would be on several at the same time. Her phone was going through articles, her tablet was set up to news live streams, and the TV was on the more focused traditional media when she saw it, the news of Gary having been taken in.

'What is going on!' She jumped out of her seat and got within inches of the screen, trying to confirm that the Gary on the TV was the same as the one she thought of, and without a shadow of a doubt it was him.

'How did this happen, how did it even… is it because of the request I made?' Xin started to think. 'No, it can't be that, it must be something else.'

She started to think back about the recent information she had found out about Gary, how he was secretly a gang leader. She didn't know the ins and outs of the whole underworld business, but perhaps this whole thing was a set-up.

Looking at her phone, she was wondering who to contact, but she had no one. She wasn't heavily involved in Gary's life, having left it shortly after. She had even broken her phone a few times, on accident, during training sessions.

So all the numbers she had from the time they were in school were gone. It was Gary who had contacted her and kept in touch with her once in a while, which was why she was able to keep his number.

'Isn't there Tom, or that blonde-haired guy that's always around him, what was his name again? Gosh, it's been so long.' Xin said to herself. She was now pacing back and forth in her hotel room.

It wasn't just the passage of time that had passed, but she couldn't exactly think straight with everything that was going on either.

'I should try and help with what I can, maybe I can do something. I wasn't able to help Jayden, but I should at least be able to help Gary.' Xin thought as she went ahead, grabbing her phone, and heading out of her room.

It had been a while since she had roamed the streets of Slough. She was still amazed by how much it had changed, from a town, now evolving into a city, filled with people walking the streets.

There was a sense of uneasiness going on though, and every once in a while she could see people looking at their phones, in shock as they were all discussing the news of Gary.

'You did a lot for Slough, Gary, and more than people realized. It seems that others are feeling the effects of what is going on already.'

Since she had no clue on the way to reach the blonde-haired man or get in touch with the gang members of the Howlers, instead she had decided to take a more typical approach.

Down the high street of Cipen, which was full of designer-styled shops, Xin noticed men walking up and down the street in black and gold clothing. It was the Howler Gang's colors.

Just like the people, they seemed a little agitated as well, but regardless she had to show no fear as she went up to a group of three of them standing outside one of the shops.

"Sorry to bother you guys, but I have some business with the Howlers," Xin explained. "Is it possible that you could get in contact, or if there was someone I could speak to?"

"Huh?" One of them turned around, his eyebrows furrowed at her. "Who is asking to meet one of our bosses randomly on the street? Do you really think that we would just say yes."

As the other two turned around to look at the woman, one of the men started to tap his friend on the shoulder.

"Hey, hey, it's her!! It's her, she's the AFC fighter, the one that's about to enter the top 50 rankings. Xin Clove, they said she came from Slough, I can't believe she's actually here."

Upon closer inspection, all three of them soon recognized Xin. It was normal for gang members who enjoyed fighting to watch the AFC, so meeting Xin was somewhat like meeting a minor celebrity.

"It really is her, and they want to meet the bosses, get in contact with them straight away, and hurry!" The guy said as the others pulled out their phones.

Xin couldn't help but be flattered; she wasn't quite used to this treatment and smiled a bit.

As she waited for them to make contact, one of the men's eyes started to bulge.

"Look out!" He shouted as he pushed her out of the way to the side.

Immediately something crashed where the group were, the brick tiles breaking on the floor. Dust started to appear, and several screams were heard as they were shocked by the sound of what just happened.

The man quickly let go of Xin, and could see his friends were okay, as well as she. They stared into the spot where they just stood, and when the dust started to settle, they could see a large muscular figure with a hood on.

"Hey, doesn't that guy match the reports!" One of the men said.

"Ah yeah, a large hooded muscular figure, they told us to report if we saw anything, that must have been the guy who attacked Notsburg!"

On their phones, the report was quickly going in.

Meanwhile, the hooded man started straight in Xin's direction.

"Ah, seeing you here is bringing back memories of school, what a reunion we are having, right?" The hooded man stated.
