Afterwards, Sun Ruiming searched for opportunities to ask around about the purpose of the recent visitors. As they say, diligence pays off—he eventually found out.

Since his arrival, he hadn't contacted his family. Embarrassed by his empty pockets, he was unable to bribe the guards even to send a letter.

With the family now falling apart, they had neither the energy nor the financial resources to inquire about Sun Ruiming's whereabouts. Consequently, he hadn't received a single letter or package from home.
