When Magpie's friends decide to go to the McDonald's in search of Magpie, it's afternoon and rapidly getting dark. In Shenzhen, however, it's been dark for as long as three hours. (There is a six-hour time difference between Finland and China in winter you know.)
Panda invites Magpie to stay overnight in his place. The stay there makes Magpie spot several differences between his home surroundings and Panda's. What makes Magpie puzzled is the complete absence of number 4 and the negligence of P's and Q's, not to mention, the mattress he has slept on and the cold inside.
