第二天早上，一個「挾控」不解的問我：「你怎麼一晚沒睡臉反而紅紅的？」
我在發燒。但我什麼也沒說。
另一個「挾控」說：「你的腳腫的很厲害，一般人站五、六天才可能這麼腫。你現在只要口頭答應放棄法輪功，我就讓你睡覺！」
我沒說話，繼續站著。
倆個「挾控」就大罵我，說搞不定我看守罵她們，說我不投降害的她們不能早日自由（勞教所已對「挾控」們許諾：整法輪功越有功越提早釋放）。
我沉默著任她們罵。
我的腿腳已經僵硬、沉重的像灌滿了鉛一樣，痛的像十幾把刀在割。我感覺它們隨時都可能支撐不住而倒下。
但我不允許自己倒下。
我要自己堂堂正正闖過這個魔難，震懾邪惡。
當晚，我聽見一個「挾控」站在牢房窗邊對在牢房外巡邏當差的犯人小聲嘀咕：「她的腳腫的很厲害，誰知道會出什麼事。我們得告訴看守，別到時她有什麼事，看守把責任推給我們。這些看守都是在利用我們，信不過的，我們得提防她們。」（待續）

“Why is your face glowing red while you didn’t sleep all night?” one of the watching-inmates asked me in surprise the following morning.
I was running a temperature. But I said nothing.
The other watching-inmate said, “Your feet are swollen badly. People usually have such swollen feet after standing for six days straight. Now as long as you verbally consent to give up Falun Gong, I’ll let you go to bed immediately!”
I stood there saying nothing.
Thereupon the two watching-inmates began swearing hard at me, saying the guards would scold them if they couldn’t make me yield, and that my refusing to yield was preventing them from becoming free (Chatou had promised to all the watching-inmates: The more successfully they tortured Falun Gong practitioners, the earlier they were released).
I kept silent, letting them swear as they pleased.
My legs had become extremely stiff and leaden, hurting like being cut by a dozen of knives. They could fail to hold on and collapse at any minute.
But I wouldn’t allow myself to collapse.
I had resolved to break through this tribulation in a dignified and upright manner, thereby shaking evil.
At night, I heard one of the watching-inmates whispering to the patrolling-inmate outside the cells by the cell window, “Her feet are swollen horribly. Who knows what would happen. We have got to report to the guards, thereby preventing them from shifting the responsibility onto us once anything happens to her. The guards are just using us. We can’t trust them. We have got to guard against them.”
