Chapter 72 Summary

Cristian meets Starfish and informs him of their imprisonment and what happened to Luca. Starfish urges him to be careful and helps him enter Liliana and Luca’s building. Cristian convinces Luca’s sisters to let him enter their apartment. The girls tell Cristian that rumors circulate that the water has been poisoned. Their parents are out looking for Luca, but Cristian does not inform them of what happened to him. Cristian cleans his wounds, dresses in some of Luca’s clothing, and writes a note to give to Liliana’s family. As he leaves, Luca’s sister Dana begs him for information, and Cristian advises her to tell her parents to check the hospitals for Luca.
