On this particular day I had just bought some new dress shoes at the newly opened 'Big Toe' shoe store. And by newly opened this place had been completely gutted, renovated, and fully stocked up and running in what had to have been less than 10 days. On the walk back to the bus I had one a "Um, what should I do?" moments in my head. And this is what I saw that put that thought in my head...
Yes, it is what it looks like. A guy laying on the ground, eyes closes, in an awkward position that doesn't look like he is sleeping kinda of way, and a slight wound on his head. So upon approaching the scene I noticed at least 2 dozen bike riders look, stare, then ride away. O did I mention the guy in the black must have been there for a while because he is selling sweet potatoes on his makeshift oil barrel oven? So, yes I was confused on what to do, stop and nudge the guy? Ask him if he is okay in my non existent Chinese? Or just act like the locals and walk right by? Well none of the above, I took it upon myself to act like the look like a local tourist who lives here. Yup I walked right by, turned, stared for a bit, then decided it would be a good picture to share as my experience in China, and took a picture (quickly though). So now it is on the Internet for all to wonder and think about the same thing that I thought. Is that guy really dead?....
**Please don't think down on me, I am wary after hearing about the scams in China where no one will stop to help someone, and the one tourist who does gets blamed for injuring that person...Unlikely in this case, but I'm not falling for that one... ***
