Before going back to work one afternoon, Policeman Li took a big bite out of the red apple on his desk. He had no time to eat his lunch that day. He was busy dealing with a traffic accident report.
It seemed that a man named Wang Jie had run a red light, running into another person's car. But he said that the light had been green when he drove across the crossing.
Li decided to question Wang Jie again. Maybe he could get some more information about the accident. This time Wang Jie still insisted (坚持) that the light was green when he drove across the crossing. Li had no reason to doubt what Wang Jie said. He told Wang Jie that he was free to go.
"Thank you so much, Policeman Li By the way that green apple on your desk looks delicious! I hope you enjoy it!" Wang Jie said with a smile.
Li stopped for a moment. "Wait. Sit back down. I think we need to talk some more.
When Wang Jie described Li's red apple as being green, Li realized that Wang Jie must have run a red light.
