Three days isn't a long time; compared to a more extended life, it's just a fleeting moment.
However, three days was enough for Mr. Selei to grasp some situations. When they got out of the car, basked in the sunlight for the first time, it felt like their lives had been reborn.
The van felt like a womb at that moment, and he was like a child emerging from it, barely able to walk.
For three days, he hadn't stretched his body — like a fetus — though he didn't need to curl up in dark corners, there was no space to stretch out either.
He hadn't stood up, always crouched with his legs, so that after getting out of the car, he had to hold onto the door for a while before he could stagger and walk on his own.
Soon after, he found himself in a luxurious office, facing Lance.
"Please, have a seat," said Lance, behaving like a gentleman.
