【Xmas Secrets of Fringe】#2 Secret of the old documents
75 years this day Hong Kong was under intensive bombing and shelling by the Japanese army invading Hong Kong. Later on, after HK surrendered on Xmas Day, it was known as the Black Xmas. British citizens were interned in camps. A non-British staff of Dairy Farm tried to hide the office records in a secret place here, but were discovered by the Japanese before the end of the war and destroyed. That's why we've so little pre-war information on our building.
