hungary is an abandoned fort wherein uh

you cannot enter after 6 pm the

government

you know it's prohibited basically so if

you enter after 6 pm

it will not be the government's

responsibility you can go on your own so

no one goes inside

and there are stories that you know

there are people inside

thing

yes

okay and uh once you grow like you

become 25 26 and you become an ice

officer

and you want to like help people
