At the weekend, Ryan, the vampire, closed Anderson's house, postponed all appointments, deliberately vacated the next three days, and postponed all affairs to three days later. Because the full moon was coming, the whole Anderson family was shrouded in an atmosphere of anxiety.
This anxiety came from Benjamin. One day ago, during an attack by hunters, Benjamin thought Ryan was dead and burst into wolves, which made him more difficult than ever before in these three days.
After eating this morning, Ryan decided to advance his diet plan by half a day so as not to challenge Benjamin's wolf nature. To reduce the desire for food, our vampire was like a real dead man, lying 'asleep' in the basement.
Sitting on the dome of the warehouse of Anderson's house, Benjamin's nose twitched. He frowned and changed his position under the shelter of the water storage tank. Near the full moon, the werewolf's senses were booming. He found the first 'guest'.
Laura Porto, with red eyes, ignored the "closed" sign in front of the corridor of Anderson's house and kept pounding the blue door.
"Closed today!" The door had opened a crack inward. Old Hank's voice was like a bell, and his wrinkled face stared at the startled girl, "can't you see the sign!"
Laura looked at the sign of "closed", and her red eyes were more aggrieved: "I'm looking for Alice. Is Alice here?"
Old Hank gave a heavy Snort and stepped aside. After Laura entered, he went out and put the sign of close in the middle of the front porch. Then he closed the door again.
Today Alice looked more haggard and anxious than usual. The big Dane dog followed her to the coffin display area of Anderson's house. She was not too surprised by Laura's visit. Looking at Laura's red eyes, she probably guessed what had happened.
"Laura, what are you doing here?" The Banshee didn't have to act. At the moment when she was attacked and the full moon was approaching, her anxiety was natural.
Laura hugged the Banshee: "I ran away from home! ..."
Alice patted Laura on the back, not knowing how to comfort her, "what happened?".
Laura held the Banshee for a while. Is it time to share the frustrations in her own life? Of course not!
"Is Benjamin there?" Laura asked sobbing.
Yes, girls' minds are so magical. When they are wronged, they prefer to have a favorite partner nearby when they talk. This will arouse the other's sympathy.
Alice was a little flustered in her eyes and lied, "Benjamin is not here."
Laura was disappointed, but she quickly threw it away and took Alice's hands. "Can I stay with you for a while? I don't want to go home."
Alice forced out a smile. "Well, let's go to Benjamin's warehouse."
Laura nodded with a smile on her tearful face.
The two walked to Anderson's house hand in hand. Old Hank silently wiped his work (coffin). In his old eyes, we don't know whether he was happy or sad.
After obtaining Laura's agreement, Alice first called Porto manor in Ryan's office to at least let Laura's family know where Laura suddenly "ran away" to put them at ease.
On the dome of the warehouse, Benjamin leaned against the water tank, and the spring breeze floated the werewolf's unusually vigorous hair. Benjamin could even hear the air swirling on his upturned hair. So now, under the dome, he could hear the conversation between the two girls clearly.
"Kyle." Laura's mood seemed to be occupied by grievances: "they are going to send Kyle to St. John's high school!"
"St. John's school?" Alice had not heard of the school, but she knew that 'John', a figure among the saints and bishops of the largest religious faith in the union, was one of the disciples of the son of God and was famous for 'Redemption'.
"In the west of the union! It's a religious school! Kyle can only come back once a year!" Laura's hands were rubbing on her eyes. Even the best cosmetics can't help such violence.
Alice reluctantly took the wet cotton to wipe off the blooming Eyeliner for Laura. Alice didn't know what a boarding school was, but hearing this, she almost guessed that it was a place that deprived people of their freedom. This should be the result that Benjamin and Ryan want. Alice thought for a while and comforted: "Kyle is a senior. It only takes one year. Don't worry."
"Why not worry!" Laura was a little angry. She sat cross-legged on Benjamin's bed and waved her fist excitedly: "it's a completely closed school. There are 10000 rules to abide by! He can't go out at will! What if Kyle becomes the kind of person who can only say 'May God bless you?"
Alice was a little relaxed, and her friend always seemed to have strange ideas about things. Ordinary people will only think that this is a school for educational reform that specifically controls Delinquent Teenagers.
"Don't worry. Just in time, Kyle can hide outside. Maybe when he comes back, your father, Mr. Porto, won't force him to study law."
Laura took the small mirror out of her bag and looked at the corners of her wiped eyes. She was depressed again. "Don't worry about it. Father won't let Kyle learn the law."
"Why?" This is curious. After all, the law is the most direct way to politics and take on the 'Porto' surname.
Laura's eyes became confused. It seemed that she didn't know why, "yesterday." Laura looked at Alice and whispered, "grandma and father are very angry with Kyle. It seems that it's because of a notebook found in Kyle's backpack."
Alice tried not to act as if she already knew.
"They argued until midnight. I heard them arguing about 'did you do what it says?' Kyle said that he hoped he would do so and would do it if he had the chance. It seems that it has something to do with Connor, Becky street where the construction is being carried out, and the safety belt." Laura shook her head. It seemed that she didn't overhear much. "Later, my grandmother burned his notebook and my father banned Kyle. I wanted to ask Kyle what had happened, but Kyle locked the door and ignored me."
The 'leak' deliberately left by the vampire was wonderfully connected with real memories.
Kyle resisted Connor's provocation and didn't kill Connor by mistake. However, his performance in the game made him lose the possibility of pursuing a career as a professional football player, and he had to give in to his father's arrangement.
Therefore, he had a grudge against Connor. Under the unwilling accumulation, he kept replaying Connor's provocation in his mind. His brain gave him a plan to get away completely if he did not resist the provocation and killed Connor by mistake! He wrote the plan in his notebook. After a week's observation of Connor, Kyle decided to implement the plan.
Did Ryan's magic pupil leave a leak? No, this leak was only for Mrs. Porto's commission. Ryan didn't completely bury Kyle's crime! The vampire disrupted the sequence of events, reconstructed the false and true into a new memory, and threw the 'sin' back to Kyle, leaving the Porto family to deal with it by themselves!
Laura had a sad look on her face: "I overheard the conversation between grandma and dad again. They said that Kyle would never touch the law, 'the shame of Porto', grandma said."
Alice looked down and patted Laura on the shoulder.
