    Chapter 29

    The atmosphere fc65532f45 in the e25b083f73 basement had a8a0d29c91 changed. It had always been 6a22dec295 quiet, but now it 60826a279d felt, how should I 1c7b55270f put it, desolate and 6b51851513 chilly. Like a dry 0ae0cc7d35 winter field, with 0ad7260435 an eerie stillness b5eeb1c2a6 lingering and only f1aad00c6e the sound of 6e78e72142 eyeballs rolling. 90bc5736d6884dec

    My interpretation was that he would feel angry even if someone kicked the streetlight in front of my house. The streetlight (me) didn’t belong to him but he was mad nonetheless.c2cae3bd8b3996ee

    It was an extremely crazy idea to ask for wrists, but the redhead, who couldn’t possibly know the situation, poked my arm and whispered, “Is it true? The crazy dog must really like you. But why don’t you feel happy?”d4bbdecacd5d55c0
