On her way to the office, Yin Zhu paid no attention to the flowers and plants; her mind was still preoccupied with what she had just seen.

Of course, she couldn't believe Dr. Wavy Hair just because he said that. Even if the cause and effect and interests so far were correct, Yin Zhu still found it difficult to view the people of Sin City and the treacherous ones with the same attitude she would show to normal people.

Therefore, Yin Zhu's trust in the doctor with the wavy haircut actually stemmed from a picture posted in the elevator.

The picture not only shows the floor number and the corresponding department, but also depicts a strange scene: chains binding many dark figures, but the lock on the door is represented by a dotted line.

In the lower left corner of the picture, someone wrote four characters in red pen:

Don't look back.

This corresponds exactly to what the doctor with the wavy hair said, which can be seen as proof of his sincerity.

As mentioned before, Yin Zhu had been keeping an eye on Dr. Wavy Hair's movements, so she naturally noticed his gaze. However, strangely, Dr. Wavy Hair seemed unable to see the picture.

His gaze often lingered on the floor number and the outside of the open elevator doors, even staring at his own reflection in the elevator for a few seconds, but he never lingered on that picture for even a second, as if it were always empty. This thing was exactly as he described; if he could see it, he couldn't possibly be completely unresponsive.

Of course, it's also possible that he's had enough of seeing it after working for so long. Therefore, Yin Zhu has another piece of evidence: the picture isn't reflected in the elevator's image either.

Not only that, but as Yin Zhu stared at the picture, she also received a questioning look from the doctor with the wavy hair. He followed Yin Zhu's gaze, then turned back, giving her a conflicted look, as if he wanted to ask her why she was looking at an empty space so intently.

Through repeated analysis, the answer was arrived at.

If you eliminate all the impossibilities, then even the most outrageous answer is the truth.

The nursing home is subordinate to the nursing hospital; the biggest connection between the two is the old man in white. Yin Zhu had always suspected that both the old man in white and the old man in red were supernatural, and now that suspicion has been confirmed. She just doesn't know how the old man in red came to be.

But that's not important. What's important is that Yin Zhu is too lazy to play games with the city lord anymore.

Although going to the hospital was unexpected, after going inside, Yin Zhu basically confirmed that none of the elderly people and colleagues were the people she was looking for, so the only ones left were the few people in the office.

There are only four employees in the office. Excluding Hong Xigua, Lu Youqi is the most suspicious of the remaining three.

Moreover, Lu Youqi had clearly intended to frame her before. If Hong Xigua hadn't spoken up for her, Yin Zhu would have been in real trouble. Judging from his actions and intentions, the probability was quite high.

It is also worth noting that the point where Lu Youqi omitted a word when writing the rules was precisely after Yin Zhu and Hong Xigua mentioned the city lord.

Since the city lord is so cautious, it is perfectly reasonable that he would secretly harbor murderous intent upon discovering that someone wanted to inquire about him. After all, no one is safer than the dead, and the dead can even be resurrected by him into monsters to serve him like slaves.

Thinking about it this way, could it be that my going to the hospital was also part of his plan? Otherwise, it wouldn't have been such a coincidence that this happened, and he specifically asked me to go.

It seems that Lu Youqi probably wants me to stop bothering him.

Unfortunately, your expectations have not been met.

Yin Zhu had already reached the entrance of the office. Seeing Lu Youqi chatting with Hong Xigua inside, she hesitated for a moment, but then decided to go in and grabbed the corner of his sleeve: "Can you come out with me for a moment? I have a few questions to ask you."

Lu Youqi was clearly surprised by Yin Zhu's appearance: "What's the problem?"

"About the city lord, about the outside world, or rather, about the chosen ones from Blue Star, about how Dawn Star perished."

Yin Zhu didn't beat around the bush at all, directly throwing out the key words that the city lord cared about most. Apart from Hong Xigua glancing at the two of them, the other two employees in the office completely ignored them.

When he mentioned the first two, Lu Youqi's expression was still quite natural, but when he heard the third, his smile froze.

"Come with me."

This time, Lu Youqi grabbed Yin Zhu's arm and forcibly dragged her out of the office lobby, disappearing with her at the door.

Watching the two figures walk away, Hong Xigua stopped, her expression turning somewhat forlorn.

Her whisper could be faintly heard in the air:

"My memory... was definitely wrong a long time ago..."

"We can't keep deceiving ourselves..."

...

Almost the instant Yin Zhu left the gate, she saw a strong electromagnetic scramble appear on the screen in front of her. When it calmed down, the scene in front of her had changed from the exterior of the nursing home to an indoor office.

Looking out the window, you can see dark clouds filling the sky, tiny elderly people, other towering retirement apartments nearby, and a department store in the distance that seems almost within reach of the clouds—this place seems to be quite high.

Based on the feeling of this height, Yin Zhu was immediately reminded of a place:

"Is this the 14th floor of the apartment building?"

"Tell me, what do you mean?"

Lu Youqi sat expressionlessly in the main seat. Although he was looking at the same time as Lu Youqi, he gave people a sense of superiority, as if he could control everything.

Yin Zhu noticed that the clouds outside seemed to be thicker, enveloping the entire floor.

Meanwhile, the live broadcast was interrupted.

This is different from the previous black screens, which only meant there was no sound but the live stream continued. However, this time, the words "Live stream content is being interfered with and is being repaired" were clearly displayed on the Blue Star live stream screen.
