Red chief

Im sure we all know that the red chief was truly a really crazy and hyper active kid, but what if he wasn’t? There are some loose strings that need to be attached but it’s possible. When I first started reading the story, I initially thought that the red chief kid was faking being crazy. It would have been a smart move to get out of the kidnapping. The red chief mentioned to the his kidnappers about how he did not want to return home. The kid could have said this so he would let the billl and sams guard down of him escaping. There are some loose strings to this tho. For example when bill was going crazy and decided to let the red chief go home, if he truly was faking his excessive behavior, then he would’ve went straight home. On the other hand if the kid wasn’t faking it, it’s very hard to believe that a kid is so dumb to not know he’s getting kidnapped. It could have been a very interesting plot twist if the red chief was faking it.
