Chapter 219: Butcher John
With Abigail leading the way, Leon didn’t have to wander around like a headless fly.
Of course, as payment for her guidance, Leon told her about their recent sea voyage and the general situation.
But just as he was getting to the part where the three of them landed on the beach and found a giant snake’s shed skin, Abigail suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Only then did Leon notice that they had arrived at their destination.
To his surprise, Butcher John’s meat shop wasn’t far from Pierre’s General Store at all—just up in the woods to the northeast.
Leon had never been to this part of town before. It wasn’t on the main road. To get here, you had to take the stone-paved path between Pierre’s General Store and Joja Mart, go around the small square to the north, and pass through a patch of woods before it came into view.
No wonder he’d never noticed it before. Without looking for it on purpose, this place would be nearly impossible to find.
“We can finish the story later. Buy your meat first.” Abigail patted Leon’s shoulder, pointing to a shop with a sign of perfectly marbled red meat.
“Mm.” Leon nodded and stepped inside. The first thing he saw was a massive freezer taking up half the space, and a burly man in a blood-stained apron holding a boning knife, working on butchering a sheep.
