Upon hearing his sister’s anxious words, “Your mother is sick, how could you not… Are you sure you are not going?” Mr. Doh enters the gate of the factory again. He tries to pray for his mother by taking a bible from the library, but the wall of the staff library is even higher than the Berlin Wall for him, an irregular worker.
