Li Mei's Pin

"You know, my job is not really to judge my customers' deeds, separate the good from the evil, and all that. That's your job. I just make the burgers. Just because I let them buy from me doesn't mean I agree with what they do." says Pin to the shadow.

"But whose side are you on, Pin?"

Pin shrugs. "Mine. That is what this place is. Just me and my rule." ...
...

"If you don't stand for something, you'll fall down for anything. And hell is a long way down, Pin. I heard it's got the hottest place reserved for neutrals like you."

Pin grins, but there is no humor in his eyes. The steam rises to his glistening face as he presses the meat onto the hot plate.
"We are already in hell, Mr. L. And you're right, I'm in a pretty sizzling spot." Pin flipped the patty. "But it's alright, I can take the heat."
