Gu Ning held Cook's furry hand, following Barto into the Central District.
Cook looked all around, sniffing the air constantly.
He had been in this state of high alert ever since they entered the Central District.
Gu Ning rubbed his back from time to time to calm him down.
She guessed Cook was acting so anxious because he was in an unfamiliar environment.
The Central District was strictly controlled, and Beastman security guards would occasionally walk past them.
As Gu Ning and the others were about to pass through the barrier of a residential area, two Beastman security guards stopped them.
"Hey, you."
One of the Beastman guards frowned and sized them up. "Mixed Breeds? What are you here for?"
Gu Ning had thought the Beastman guard was about to chase them away, but to her surprise, he didn't. He only asked their purpose for being there.
She was a little surprised.
