The Wolf is Coming Ch. 21
Hampstead was a famous city that never slept in this area, with bright lights and wine, and it was a unique scene.
Abraham got his first job in the Muggle society in a bar in this city that never slept.
The name of the bar was Blues, which sounded like a bar, but it was actually very chaotic. After being recruited from the street by Leonard, Abraham became a nightclub security guard here, commonly known as "watching the place".
This kind of work was actually not difficult for Abraham, but he was used to being quiet, and suddenly he was in such an environment, and it was a little difficult to adapt for a while.
The bar's resident band sang the popular rock music again. The high-decibel electronic music mixed with human voices stimulated Abraham's eardrums, and his head was buzzing. The collar of the new uniform was also a bit stiff. He tugged at the collar of his shirt a little irritably until he pulled off two buttons and vaguely revealed his collarbone. Only then did he finally feel that his breathing was smooth.
The bartender behind the bar couldn't stand it anymore, so he handed Abraham a glass of ice water and said, "Brother, don't be impatient. It's only a few hours now. It's still early for the evening show to end."
Abraham took the glass and said thank you vaguely.
However, after drinking a whole glass of ice water, Abraham couldn't get rid of his restlessness. It wasn't until the blood in his body boiled like boiling water that he finally realized that the full moon day had arrived.
He was so busy these days, getting familiar with the city and working part-time that he didn't remember that he should have asked for leave until the full moon day.
The longer he delayed, the stronger the restlessness in his blood became. At this moment, Abraham didn't care whether his salary would be deducted. He greeted the manager, changed his clothes in a hurry, and left the Blues Bar quickly.
The night in Hampstead was also bright, with all kinds of neon lights dotted on the streets, making it almost impossible to tell whether it was lights or moonlight that sprinkled on the ground. Abraham simply pulled down the hood of his coat and put himself in a shadow. He didn't dare to look up, for fear that he would become a wolf on the street.
Suddenly, he stopped.
A group of people surrounded him from all directions, everyone holding weapons, obviously coming prepared. The leader saw him and spat on the ground with disdain, "Are you Abraham Cromwell? With your small body, I heard you can fight?"
Abraham didn't say anything. His champagne eyes looked from under his hood, faintly glowing yellow, like some nocturnal creature.
The leader pulled out a silver knife and tossed it in his hand, "This area is my territory. I advise you to be sensible. Let us fight back the way you beat my brother that day. It's better to give some compensation, and this matter will be considered even. Otherwise..."
Abraham roughly determined the number of people surrounded, and intuitively thought that the chances of winning were not great, so without waiting for the man to finish, he quickly kicked one person away, and then ran out of the encirclement through the gap of the man before everyone could react.
"You dare to run, brat? Chase him!" The man shouted angrily behind him.
The feeling of blood boiling in his veins was not very good, so Abraham ran very fast, trying to get rid of the trouble he had caused. The summer night wind poured into his hood, almost blowing it off, so he pulled the brim of the hood and let the wind whistle in his ears.
To be fair, Abraham's speed was not slow, but the problem was that he didn't know the way very well, and after turning several turns, he accidentally turned himself into a dead end.
There was no way to go ahead, and behind him, the dense footsteps were approaching. He could even hear the people chasing behind him say proudly, "Hey, this stinky boy actually ran into a dead end by himself. This is good, we can catch him directly in the jar."
Gritting his teeth, Abraham simply pulled off his hood and looked at the full moon in the sky without hesitation.
When the people chasing behind rushed into the alley, they found that Abraham had disappeared. There were pieces of clothing scattered on the ground. A large snow-white dog was standing on a pile of debris in the alley, looking at them with its yellow eyes.
"Strange, where is he?"
Just as they were wondering, the white animal that they thought was a large dog showed them its sharp teeth, and its cold eyes finally made them react.
No,
It's a wolf!
