Personality
For a 17th Century Chinese police officer, Jin has some decidedly strange ideas about law enforcement. Simply put, he is a strong believer in equal justice before the law. No one, in his mind, is above the law, and all should hold to it―or else laws are useless and enforcing them is meaningless. This attitude doesn't make him popular with his superiors, and even Jin will admit to being known as a "rebel" among his fellow officers and magistrates. On the other hand, this does mean he treats most everyone fairly, and tries to find the true solution to a mystery or crime, not the most expedient one. Jin has also stated that society's aversion to the dead makes it hard to truly examine a corpse (such as a murder victim) and envies (after a fashion) the Dutch, who he hears, have turned death into a science, with something called an "autopsy."
Quote: “I just believe that no matter how low their position, everyone is entitled to some justice.”
