The Saboteur

This story was kinda of slow in the being... "Aw a 'happy new couple'"and then all the sudden it took on a new sort of twist. The police man instigated Mr. Chiu 's negative reaction by throwing hot tea at the feet of himself and his bride's. You sympathize with the man, he was only trying to get home from a long honeymoon and exhausted by illness.
So you just gotta feel sorry for the poor guy. I did admire his persistence he constantly asked 'why' which if you think questioning the government in a communist society will most likely get you no where productive. He was a scholar and as far as he was concern these police were pigs looking for a good time, and exercising their authority in unnecessary ways. Now whenever Mr. Chiu saw the folder on his case he wondered how the could have that much paper work within an hour. It makes you wonder if what the officer said was true; were they in fact eyewitness statements, was the officer bluffing or foraged? Or do the police have so much control over that region that can manipulate society to provide false statements? ... It makes you wonder. I found it quite humorous though that Mr. Chiu was able to get his revenge, I wonder if some of the police who arrested him were among the three hundred people that died because of the 'mysterious' hepatitis outbreak.... Hmmm.
