     Yu Jihui: “A Stinking Old Ninth – A Tale of the Coal Capital” (updated on July 2020)
               testimony. With  it the school  authority, no doubt,
               could  punish you! We don’t need you to  confess
               anymore,” The  political supervisor said patiently.
               “But we want to save you. If you could answer our
               questions  honestly you might escape  the school’s
               punishment.  You must understand  our sincerity.
               Could you promise to give us a good confession?”
                        “Y…  yes,” I mumbled,  thinking  that what the
               political supervisor said was true. They had the copy
               of White Swan’s letter as testimony.  It was the most
               convincing demonstration. It showed everything we
               did. That’s enough for punishing us. There would be
               no necessity for them to collect any other proof.
               They didn’t need me to confess at all.  They  might
               have even consider giving me a chance! They might
               want to save me!
