He put them in her quarters, but he mistakenly put the flowers on YING’s bed. CHUNG loved to play, but he had made LEUNG lose his opportunity to be promoted to brown belt. When BUN knew, he punished CHUNG to make many straw men. CHING went to the camp, and accidentally said that SHAN was admitted to the hospital. BUN made his excuse to leave the camp and went to the hospital, and knew that SHAN had only three months to live.
