The Mysterious Warning Sign on the Telegraph Pole

In a remote village, along a winding path, stood an eerily straight telegraph pole that seemed to be the site of frequent accidents. Not long ago, a young couple met a tragic accident as they carelessly rode their bikes into it, resulting in their untimely demise.

One evening, 5-year-old Xiao Zhi and his mother were passing by the site on their way home. Xiao Zhi suddenly exclaimed, "Mom, there are two people on the telegraph pole!" His mother, clutching his hand, hurriedly pulled him away, saying, "Don't speak nonsense, my child!" However, the incident quickly spread through the village.

One day, a journalist came to interview Xiao Zhi and asked him to show him the location of the accident. Xiao Zhi confidently led him to the site. The journalist inquired, "Where is it?" Xiao Zhi pointed upward. The journalist looked up and saw a sign hanging on the telegraph pole that read, "Traffic Safety: Everyone's Responsibility."

This simple tale illustrates how an ordinary telegraph pole became the focus of attention in the village, reminding everyone of the importance of road safety.
