Meanwhile, Red and Blond were thinking the same thing. the gray-haired kid just straight up lied on their faces without a shred of shakiness in his voice. He must be a professional liar. Red and Blond concluded.
With everything laid on the table, Red, Blond, and Grey forged their friendship on a single misunderstanding which they won't know until later.
