On Hide-and-Seek in China

0

Hide and Seek originally is a kind of game. In America’s dictionary, it is called cops-and-robbers. Everybody played the game in our childhood. But the name of the game turns out to be the hottest network language nowadays. It results from a case. 

 

 According to the report in China Daily, the mysterious death of Li, 24, who allegedly died of a head injury while playing “hide-and-seek” game with fellow detainees, sparked wide discussion and doubts over internet.

 

Some warm-hearted netizens even formed a “hide-and-seek incident investigation committee” to investigate the sudden death of the detainee. This case continued to draw fire from the online community.

 

I am not stupid, so I just cannot believe the reason provided by the local police office as everybody else. We can imagine the size of space in a local detention house. How would a detainee could have enough time and space to play such a game. Based on my knowledge as a lawyer, a detainee could not have such freedom to go around somewhere besides their small cabinet, let alone play any game there. Even if they have enough freedom, how do they have such a mood! Yeah, based on the logic of such reasoning, Li and his fellow detainees are probably be nuts.

 

Not being a member of this committee, I think I just know the truth. One of our unspoken rules to examine the suspects is to “give him some color see see”. Maybe this time, one of the officers just neglected enough to harm his life.

 

Who can play hide-and-seek any more?
