Semua Bab Arrest Me Officer: Bab 11 - Bab 15

I so much agreed with the saying because I was really sure that Alberto was part of the many mad people who were not roaming, unlike the few who were. “ What does that even mean?” I asked, still unable to precisely break down and comprehend what he meant by his words. “ That I do not want the audio to be used in court as evidence, that is what it means”, he retorted, instantly making me realize that he was part of the many who were mad but were not roaming. In fact, his madness outweighed that of Alberto. “ Okay, okay, calm down”, I said to myself, realizing that I was already standing on my feet without even realizing it, “ when dealing with mad people, especially those who don't really look mad, you have to take things slowly, unless they snap and attack”. I took in slow breaths, trying to calm myself. “ Okay. You don't want to use the audio record as evidence in court? No problem. Absolutely no pro
