My Werewolf System Chapter 313 – No Longer There

Chapter 313 - No Longer There

Quickly, Gary began searching through his room, the last thing he wanted was for Amy to come across an a.s.sortment of bones, especially since Kirk’s head was also in there. The former would already be hard to explain, but the latter would make it impossible.

Gary spent an entire hour looking through every nook and cranny of the apartment, yet it was nowhere to be found. The Werewolf had even used his nose to look for signs of blood, yet he was unable to pick up anything.

‘Why can't I remember where I put it… it's like on the night of the full moon. I can't remember anything for some reason. Did I just black out?’

Gary was trying hard to replay the events after Kirk’s head in his head, but there was no such luck. Since it definitely wasn’t in their apartment, the only thing he could do was head outside. Before he did, he was about to reach for his hoodie, but soon placed it back, realising that it probably wasn't needed any more, not after yesterday’s events.

It was the middle of the day, and roaming around in the streets, Gary was following any scent of blood he picked up on, searching for any clues to what he could have done with the bones, yet he only managed to find some roadkill, as well as a man who seemed to have cut himself shaving.

The teenager increased his search radius, taking the route between his home and the fighting that had taken place yesterday. Unfortunately, he was unable to carry out his plan, because there were several policemen that seemed to be conducting an investigation. They had blocked off the areas that had been attacked yesterday.

Still, the biggest change he noticed was the absence of the Underdogs. There were no members in the area. Walking without the need to hide his face, having to check behind his back, or putting his hood up was something he had never treasured before.

Now, it was a freedom he had regained. Gary was finally able to walk around his own home area, without worry. What this also meant was he could continue his search, albeit outside the closed off areas.

Alas, the next few hours were uneventful. Not even a hint, even after retracing his last steps that he could remember on the top of his head.

‘Well, I guess if even I can't find it with my nose and knowing where I should have pa.s.sed by yesterday, then it hopefully means no one else will find him.’ Gary reasoned.

Since it was getting late, he decided to head home. Just in time as well, as Amy entered their apartment a few minutes after him. Gary welcomed her back and tried his best to act normal. Stating that he had a falling out with one of his friends the other day.

Which was why he wasn't in the best of moods. Of course, Amy had seen right through his lie, but decided to take it head one, just like she had all the others. She was just happy that her brother was somewhat back to his usual self.

Before going to sleep, there were a few things that the high schooler had done. For one, he had messaged Olivia. He had initially wanted to check up on the Beta Wolf after a.s.signing her the Hunter Cla.s.s to test a few things out, but due to his impromptu scavenger hunt it had gotten too late. The Lady Boss had received the message, but she had left it on read without further reply. Gary could feel that she must be p.i.s.sed at him for not giving him any prior warning.

Unfortunately, she wasn’t the only one who seemed to be ignoring him. The teenager had constantly checked his phone waiting for Kai’s supposed message, but neither he, nor any of the others, had sent anything.

Still, Gary took it as a good sign, believing that everyone had used this day to recuperate. He would just ask him personally what had happened. For the first time in a long time he was able to get a good night's sleep.

In a way, Gary was hoping that the matters with the Underdog and the Grey Elephants could be solved before the full moon. That way, he would be able to fully focus on himself and Olivia during that period of time. Unlike last time, when it had annoyed him greatly, he decided to use the notifications as a type of calendar.

Following his usual routine, Gary was the first to leave the apartment, excited to meet up with the rest. He wanted to learn about what had happened to them after he had left. What the news was like in their areas, and most importantly, talk to Kai about their next move.

Maybe it was something that he wished to do in person rather than over the phone in the first place, which was why he hadn't given the others an update. Either way, he wanted to meet them.

Tom was still away on his special interns.h.i.+p course, so they were really the only ones he would be able to talk to. When entering his cla.s.sroom, he of course saw that Tom’s seat was empty. However, next to it, Innu's seat was empty as well. At first he thought he was just there early, but even when the lessons were about to begin, that fact didn’t change.

‘Did he take the day off? I guess it would make sense for him to take a few days off. After all, he knew those orphans personally. d.a.m.n, I've been thinking about my own situation all this time, without even stopping to think about him.’ Gary realised. Pulling out his phone, he thought it was best he sent him a message to at least try to cheer him up while he was away. However, before he could, the teacher entered the room.

“Okay, listen up, everyone. I have some news to share with all of you.” Mr Grey announced. “Our recent transfer student, Innu has decided to transfer out. I'm afraid he will no longer be with us any more. Let's all wish him the best at his next school… or whatever he wishes to do in the future.”

Gary had stopped in the middle of his message. He couldn't believe it, why would Innu leave school because of what happened.

“Hey, do you think he really transferred to another school?”

“I doubt it. He was definitely the one on the news the other day! Even Mr Grey seems to think that.”

“Yeah, he was with that gang, the black and gold one. What were they called again, the Howlers?”

“I can't believe we had a gangster in our cla.s.sroom all this time. We should have known due to him having those weird bandages all the time.”

Gary was able to hear everyone talk about Innu, and he hadn't even realised what had occurred. Focusing on his own set of troubles, he had been completely unaware that the whole event had been broadcast that day.

However, it was clear from listening to his cla.s.smates that must have been what had occurred.

‘c.r.a.p, this is a big deal, isn't it? Neither Innu, Marie, nor Austin had masks covering their faces! Everyone knows that they would have been involved in that fight. c.r.a.p, did the camera manage to capture my face when the mask fell off as well?’

Thinking about this incident, reminded Gary that there was at least one person, who certainly had seen his face that he would need to deal with. However, the fact that none of the students were talking about him, meant it was unlikely that his ident.i.ty had been revealed.

As the lesson went on, the bell went off signalling it was time for lunch rather than eat though, Gary had sent a message to the group, asking what exactly was going on, why Innu dropped out of school. Heading to the upper floor, the teenager decided to head to Kai's cla.s.sroom.

When looking at where he would usually sit staring out the window, there was no such person there.

“Sorry, but have you seen Kai or Marie anywhere?” Gary asked one of his uppercla.s.smen.

“Kai… oh, we just got told today. Those two will no longer be attending Westbridge, apparently.”

It was then that Gary was sure that something was seriously up.
