Vine scooped Gu Ning up from the snow while the other young wolves pulled Cook aside.
As they pulled him away, they said to the unlucky Beastman:
"We told you not to mess with them. They're brothers, so if you mess with one, you mess with both. You've really got some nerve."
"Why would you provoke a Mixed Breed for no reason? It's the middle of winter. If their mutation worsens because of this, we won't let you off."
"We're usually so careful to keep them calm. Look at the mess you've made."
"For letting things get this bad, we're going to file a complaint against your inspection department!"
Hearing them turn the tables and blame him, the lead Beastman was furious. He wanted to hit someone, but the slightest movement sent pain shooting through him, causing him to hiss and gasp. What's more, his eyes were so caked with blood he couldn't see clearly.
"WOOF WOOF WOOF!!!" Cook, held back by the young wolves, still tried to lunge forward and bite him.
