I love the way Silent Reading goes to great lengths to paint rich people as just absolutely horrific, with no consequences for their crimes, and hammer in that horror so you want and desperately feel a rage that this kind of shit should not be possible
#silent reading#lb#i will say silent reading goes Way soft on 'kind police' but luo wenzhous a police captain so of course it does#it does touch on superiors in police being corrupt tho which i suppose is more than notjing#but in terms of the evil of the rich??? fei chengyu is considered NORMAL milktoast 'nice' rich and hes#just AWFUL. then theres wei and hes got assassins. theres director zhang (zhang donglais family) who maybe#is killing and letting all kinds die. and now im at zhou yahous reveal#and fucking wow he was a child trafficing rapist who then sold teens to human trafficking to die#youd be hard pressed to find a single morally Not Horrific rich person in this novel#like.... zhang donglai might be the nicest? since hes only punched people?#fei du watched his mom be tortured and killed animals so hes not e#exactly plain toast. and wei kid? did teen prostitution bullying hazing and hired an assassin#yeah... zhang donglai might be the most Decent rich person in this novel... no wonder fei du admires him tbh#what perhaps makes me mosg horrified is when i read Silent Reading i remember there was a real rich person island like this villa#that trmp visited and many others who never got arrested for it. but just also... the rrality that the very rich#likely can do all of this horrible shit and there is nothing to stop them#at least nothing that actually gets Done to stop the.
