Chapter 31 freedom and comfort

Gigi was sitting on the curb next to Brian against the wall when he noticed a puddle of blood next to the dog's injured leg.Brian squirmed and moved closer to him, resting his head on his lap.It didn't make any sound, but it seemed restless and uncomfortable, and occasionally trembled all over.Gigi stroked its ear, trying not to look at the horrific wound. The warm weather made him drowsy.He closed his heavy eyes and slowly fell asleep.Even with his eyes closed, the bright sunlight still made his eyes glow with golden light. Something is wrong. He opened his eyes and saw that the sun hadn't moved in the sky after all this time playing in the tavern.He glanced at his watch instinctively: 6:10.He put the watch close to his ear, and he could still hear the sound of ticking, ticking.

Finally, he finally realized that there was nothing wrong with the watch.He came here at the beginning of time.Time in Turnaog hadn't been fully established, only the eternity of stillness had just stirred up a little.He couldn't hope to fully understand what was going on, but like a force was beginning to gather, he could already see something.The best explanation is that Turnaogg only received a tiny bit of leaked time.But even this slow leak is not something Gigi's own world can afford. At least, that means at home, it's time for the dance, right?Or is it long past prom time?That uneasy feeling came back.Is this time correct?Is it ten past six at home now?Maybe, the time at home goes faster?Jiji was about to think of something, but the sudden appearance of the goat diverted his attention.It jumped out of the door, gave Jiji a disdainful look, and jumped down the street again.

Brian sighed, turning his head to lick the wound.Gigi looked into the distance.Maggie came out with the violin case, waved to him, and headed for the pier.The goat looked around, then turned and followed her.Others are also going in that direction.Gigi guessed there might be another dance party.He noticed that one or two people looked at the sky as they walked, but he could not see anyone in the village showing any signs of anxiety.How could they be so obsessed with prom?Why doesn't everyone look for places where time leaks?Perhaps, as Agas and other bandmates say, there's nothing to worry about here.Maybe they don't realize how bad things are in this other world.Will they care about it?

Gigi imagines a terrifying scene in her head: the earth is spinning faster and faster like a tennis ball, and its inhabitants are busy like crazy, trying to adapt their lives to shorter and shorter times.The trouble is, how do they know where to find time?Even if you were standing at the leak point, how would you know?People cannot see, hear, or smell time. Da Willie walked out of the bar with the others. "To the pier?" Jenny asked. "Don't you think it's more important to look for leaks in time?" Gigi asked her. They looked up at the sky at the same time, then at each other, and finally at Gigi.

"Ah, Aegas is here." Marcus said with relief. Aegas appeared on the corner of the street and walked towards them.People simply greeted him a few words and walked towards the ball. "Are you sure you don't want to go with them?" Aegas asked. "Rule number four," said Gigi, "don't dance." Aegas closed his eyes, Gigi guessed he must be hiding his anger.But when he opened his eyes, he looked as happy as before. "So, what's your plan?" he asked. "I don't know," Gigi said. "I was expecting you to have a plan."

"Actually, I don't have a plan." He thought about it, then added, "Are you from the farm?" "You could say that," Gigi replied. "You must often run around up and down the mountain?" "Yes. Why do you think of asking this?" "So, have you encountered any leaks?" "I don't think so," Gigi said. "I've never heard any music come through." "What else?" Aigas asked, "Have you ever seen something that shouldn't appear, or heard someone in the sky" w.`F v`a L .c `n "Speech?

"No." Gigi replied.However, when Egeas took out his cigarette, he remembered that once when he was looking for a lost goat, he encountered something in the hazel forest on the farm. "I've smelled smoke, it's tobacco, but there's no one there." "That's what we're looking for," said Aegias. "Where is it?" Gigi told him the location. "We're going now," said Aegas.
