Assassinating a country's head of state and then hanging the body on the flagpole that symbolizes the nation's power is a brutal, excessive, and Black Devil-like act.
However, Yang Yi found it somewhat incredible. He had seen the Ukrainian Parliament building and the Presidential Palace—there were flagpoles, but they were all positioned relatively inward. The difficulty of hanging someone on a flagpole wasn't just great; it was tremendous.
Unless those Black Devils had gone mad, they would not risk their lives for an act that, aside from provocation, held no meaning.
The Ah Ming that Anton mentioned was not Uganda's Ah Ming, but the President of Afghanistan, Ah Ming. In 1979, a Soviet colonel breached the Afghan presidential palace and shot President Ah Ming to death. But that's just the official story—who knows if it was really the Black Devils who killed him and hung him on the flagpole, or even hung him there alive.
