Kapitel 125: Hiding the next wave out

"So you were Layn's..." Markus raised his eyes at the girl, trying to figure out the answer just from the expression she made.

Absolutely no one comes here outside of weirdos like Layn," she said before shrugging her arms and smiling. "The only ones who could just happen to appear here are those who share Layn's traits, am I right?"
