D - The fact that the immigrants were from china is important, but does not explain why the officers dismissed the writing as grafitti.
B - This is the next most likely option, but I chose A over it because it makes the most sense (logically) Its hard to pick though, because it also never states that the writing was in chinese characters, but I chose A anyway because there's a higher chance they would write something in their own language to either, 1, prevent the officers from understanding, or 2, prevent the writing from offending any officers (which would have been possible, had they understood what it meant in english)
There's a lot more reasons why A is the best choice, but heres a basic rundown.
