We’11 have 13to escape, and the slower and weaker mice will hear her coming and be able to14!” Hearing the words, everyone got 15and they congratulated him on his good idea.
“We’11 tie it so tightly that it will never 16!”
“She’11 never be able to walk 17again! Why, the other day, she suddenly appeared right in front of me! Just imagine…”
