The Ability of a Finalist

Everyone in the stadium looked aghast. What had happened that day was something they had never thought possible.

The person who emerged victorious from the 400m sprint's "group of death" was a para-athlete who had lost both his legs!

"Is something wrong with my eyes? Was the first person who ran past the finish line the 'blade warrior?' But he's disabled! He doesn't have legs, and he only has a small part of his calves. A person without legs ran faster than people with legs?"

"What's going on? Isn't this the 'group of death?' Why is a disabled person in first place? What were the other seven contestants doing? Were they imitating a tortoise? Why would they let a disabled person get first place?"

"Fixed race. This must be a fixed race! How else can a disabled person top the group! The other seven contestants must have been bought!" announced a person who had read a lot of mystery novels.
