It's Jie's attempts to always do the right thing that gets him into trouble.

#99: "If I hand't gone they would have sent someone else."

Plot goes off the rails for #100.

And there is 100! I missed a few days, but only a few. Also, the end is in sight. It's still a couple of months away (possibly more), but I think I know how to get there now. I'll probably change it once I get close, like I did with Yellow Tape and Coffee.
