Bab 343: Fifty Percent

In the evening, crazy Elsa was caught at the fair by the Caligula's servants and taken home to bathe. "Bye, big dog!" said Elsa, sitting on the man's shoulder, reluctantly saying goodbye to the friend she had just met today.

The dirty boy, known as 'big dog,' copied her and waved. When he giggled, his nose streamed and his voice became vague and hoarse. He squatted on the ground and watched the girl fade away. His eyes grew sad and he whined.

Someone pressed onto his shoulder, pulled out a handkerchief, and carefully wiped his snot. "Casper, having fun?" Torre squatted down to look at him. Together, they watched as the girl left. He took Casper's hand. "Let's go back. We can come to her next time, alright?"

Casper looked at him, puzzled. Then he laughed happily as if he understood what Torre had just said. He followed behind his brother, and they disappeared in the crowd.
