Red Rope: Twenty Years of Original Sin in Rouge Creek

The water of Rouge Creek in southern Fujian has been cold for twenty years, and it is soaked with half my life's guilt. That year I watched A Yao being pushed into the water by his companions, and I watched him reach out for help, but chose to remain silent out of cowardice. Twenty years later, people from that time drowned one by one, with red ropes wrapped around their wrists, and the innocent souls demanded their lives. I, the last sinner, was finally forced back to where I started. It turns out that escaping is useless. Only by kneeling by the stream and telling the truth that has been hidden for twenty years can I give Ahe and myself a belated explanation. It turns out that escaping is useless.
