Chapter 218: Going down a tier (2/2)

With his hood now up, Gary entered the Chavley area, whereup their patrols Using his enhanced senses, as well as his personal route, the high schooler successfullymembers on the way to his apart the area where his apartment block and others were located, Gary could see that athered outside, near the bulletin board However, they didn’t seem interested in the stuff that was posted there, instead they were talking to an old e, sure, but Gary couldn’t deny the resemblance

The , Mr Morten Getting closer, Gary was interested to hear what all the commotion was about He remained at the back of the crohich was filled with families, students and all sorts

“This is crazy, you have to say so to them, Morten!” An older woman yelled “If this continues, then soon on’t even be able to afford to live here! And then we’ll…have to… ”
