You don't know what they're like, the state asylums. Grotesque. I don't have the words. There... There are no words in my lexicon. One word, no flourishes. Grotesque. The screaming is constant and so... desolate. They don't have enough toilets. I can't let Zelda stay in such a place.
你根本无法想像州立救济所 那里面是什么样子 畸形怪诞 我不知道该怎么形容...在我的字典里 找不到合适的词 只能想到一个词 畸形怪诞 那里面时刻充斥着此起彼伏的尖叫声...是那么凄凉 而且里面厕所也不够 我不能让塞尔达待在那种地方
