Allan discovered Sophie had six toes when David and Sophie were fishing for shrimps. This led the Wenders to flee Waknuk.
The secret that he discovers is that she has six toes on each foot, which he knows by observing her footprint.
In Chapter 1 of "The BFG," Sophie could hear the Queen's snores, the BFG's footsteps, and the ticking of the clock in the orphanage.
The inspector confronts him about Sophie, telling him that it is against the rules to hide deviants, etc... so perhaps that: hiding Sophie. He never gets accused of being a telepath, because he has already run away at that point.
One example of a simile in "The Chrysalids" is when David describes Sophie's physical deformity as "as sudden as a sword." This comparison highlights the abrupt and shocking nature of her mutation. Another example is when David compares the shape of the Sealand woman's ship to a "great gleaming gull." This simile conveys the graceful and majestic appearance of the vessel.
Sophie is a mutant who has six toes on each foot, while Rosalind is a normal human without any mutations. Sophie is forced to live in hiding due to her mutation, whereas Rosalind can live openly within society. Sophie is more vocal and assertive in challenging societal norms, while Rosalind is more cautious and practical in her actions.

The Wender parents are important because their daughter Sophie is a mutant (with an extra toe on each foot). Sophie is important because she is the first mutant David (the main character) sees as a person. He even becomes friends with her. When a local boy sees Sophie's foot, she and her family must run, and this causes David to consider what would happen to Sophie if she was caught. He worries that she would be executed like the animal mutants are. Later on, when David, Rosalind and Petra have fled to the Fringes, they meet Sophie and through her learn of the horrors of Fringe life.
In "The Chrysalids," examples of lovers include David and Rosalind, friends include David and Sophie, and enemies include David and Joseph Strorm. These relationships play a significant role in the development of the plot and characters throughout the novel.
