Underworld Player Chapter 29 - Perfectly Accurate Deductions, Guaranteed

Time passed, and with it went the rumbling sound of thunder. The rain, however, did not relent but fell with renewed vigor all around them.

It invaded the house through the broken window on the east side of the living room, the copious splashes of water mixing with the mysterious striped stains on the concrete wall and the grime on the floor to form repulsive rivulets that oozed everywhere.
