"It was said that an old man named Zhou traveled to Beijing and stayed at a guesthouse. The staff observed that he was generous with his spending and suspicious in his behavior, leaving early and returning late, so they reported him to the authorities.
The police were quickly dispatched to wait for him, but when he saw the uniforms, he bolted. Enthusiastic locals helped capture him.
The old man shouted that he hadn't committed any crime, so why was he being arrested? The police asked why he ran and to explain what he was doing there.
He claimed that he was visiting relatives.
They asked who his relatives were.
He said it was inconvenient to disclose publicly.
This angered everyone, and they said he must be an enemy agent; otherwise, why couldn't he talk, suggesting he was trying to pass information to accomplices. They helped the police escort him away.
