Chapter 10: The slaughterhouse in the nursing home can’t kill all the livestock all day long, it’s a mess…
The slaughterhouses can’t kill all the animals all day long, and the messy scraps are piled up together, making it impossible to clean them.
These minced meats are transported here in a messy and filthy state, and they must be cleaned before being used to make nutrient supplements.
Since they are free labor, naturally all the dirty and tiring work is thrown at them to do.
Fortunately, the factory knew when to quit. After washing the smelly raw materials for a few days, Linxi Sicong was assigned to transport goods again.
They have to make more than ten trips to and from the slaughterhouse every day, and when they have free time, they are arranged by the slaughterhouse to transport livestock to the farm.
Help catch chickens, ducks and geese.
The chickens, ducks and geese in the previous life were not big in size, but their fighting power was evident. The fighting power of the Zerg chickens, ducks and geese was even more explosive. It took at least two Zergs to hold down a chicken, so there was naturally a shortage of Zerg hands.
There are simply not enough insects assigned to the farm to carry out tasks.
The Linxi team came to transport goods, and they were conscripted and asked to help shovel shit.
Parker wore a gas mask to protect himself from the biological weapons, but it was useless because his clothes were pickled with the smell.
When it was finally finished, Parker took off his mask and took a deep breath, almost passing out from the breath.
Lin Xi smiled secretly: He wanted to remind Parker, but he just didn't open his mouth, because Parker always complained about him behind his back.
Parker made a bitter face, and Xander comforted him, "It's okay, go back to the dormitory and take a shower and the smell will go away."
Muyas's expression also looked a little grim. Lin Xi picked up the bag outside and handed it to him, saying, "A new mask. Take it off when you get back to the dormitory."
Muas was indeed feeling uncomfortable from the smoke. His sense of smell was more sensitive than that of other insects, and he was on the verge of suffocation.
But the one showing goodwill was Lin Xi, and Muas felt a little awkward.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally couldn't resist the impact of the stench and took it with a frown.
Parker came over and said, "Boss, do you have any more? I want some too."
Lin Xi glanced at him and said, "Get lost. You're dreaming. I don't have any myself."
Muas, who put on a new mask, felt that the mask on his face was burning.
He shouldn't have taken it!
…
"Change of mission, change of mission!"
"It's finally time to change my mission. I don't want to feed pigs or shovel pig shit anymore!"
"I don't want to clean up goose poop anymore. The goose keeps nibbling at my butt!"
"All you have to do is nag. You don't have a leader, so you don't have any bugs to watch. Look at me. I was helping the patrol, and when some troublemakers started picking a fight, we went to mediate. Over a disagreement, a fight broke out, and I stood by and took the beating. Look how badly I got beaten. It's been a day, and I'm still not recovered!"
"You were accidentally injured, but at least you have medical expenses. Our mission was to repair a house for public welfare, but the workers refused to work and threw all the work to us. When the leader came to inspect the work, he ran out and took all the credit. In the end, the leader didn't even say that he would split the fruit reward between us."
"You guys are not that bad, there are even worse ones..."
“…”
The insects talked about their experiences one after another. There is no most explosive, only more explosive ones.
Lin Xi couldn't help but sigh, society is so cruel, these young people are still too naive.
"This time, our mission is to take care of lonely and elderly female insects in a nursing home."
Back in the dormitory, Lin Xi told Ji Chong about the mission.
Parker immediately slapped his thigh and said "Ouch!", which scared Muas, who was concentrating on copying something, so much that the tip of his pen trembled and a piece of paper was wasted in an instant.
Lin Xi immediately said with a sullen expression, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you see that you scared the other bugs?"
Parker shut up awkwardly, looked at the honest Sander, and then looked at Muas who threw the paper ball into the trash can. It was obvious who was scared.
Parker felt a little aggrieved, and Lin Xi said unhappily, "Tell me, what happened?"
Parker then spoke up: "I heard from the bug next door upstairs that their team also accepted the task of the nursing home. This task is quite difficult!"
"High?" Lin Xi didn't care. How difficult could it be to take care of a group of old grandfathers?
Feed the old man, massage his legs, rub his back, chat with him, let him bask in the sun, and observe his physical and mental health issues...
Although this is a Zerg race that values force, the old man is old and he probably won't challenge him to a fight, right?
Parker continued, "Many of them are retired veterans who have served on the battlefield. Their mental turmoil is frequent, and if you're not careful, it's easy to..."
Lin Xi raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, following Parker's words, if they rioted without paying attention, maybe the inhibitors would be useless. If they couldn't hold on, it would easily drag the surrounding insects down with them.
Being a caregiver in a nursing home is a high-risk job that requires certain abilities.
Parker shook his head and said, "That's not all. I heard there are thugs hanging around nearby. They don't do anything bad, but they're a bit unethical. They break into nursing homes and steal clothes and nutritional supplements, and sometimes they can't be caught."
"The buildings in the nursing home were built a long time ago and need frequent repairs. Today we have to mend the east wall, tomorrow we have to mend the west wall, and occasionally we have to fix the leaking roof..."
Oh, and by the way, I can also share the work of the patrol team and the construction team.
Lin Xi was wondering before, the task at the nutrient factory alone took nearly half a year. Instructor Fim said that every task could be done once, and he must be fooling them. She didn't expect it to be true.
Although they did not accept the tasks of the slaughterhouse and the breeding farm, they accepted the tasks of the nutrient factory and completed the other two by the way.
Lin Xi said: "Wouldn't it be better to tear it down and build a new one?"
It doesn’t cost many star coins to build a house anyway.
Parker said, "It's easier said than done. If we demolish the house, the insects inside will have to move out temporarily, and the old female insects are unwilling to move."
"Maybe they're afraid of spending their star coins, and they don't want to cause trouble for other bugs. The nursing home is a public welfare benefit, funded by the government, but demolishing it and building a new one requires a report. I heard they applied several times but were never approved."
"There are kindhearted bugs donating money, but the old female bugs would rather save it than spend the star coins on building houses."
Lin Xi frowned. It was indeed difficult for the old man to have such a mentality.
From this point of view, the task is indeed a bit difficult.
…
Outside the nursing home, the walls have been patched over and over again, the colors are uneven, and they are mottled. It really looks like a dangerous building, gloomy, and the lighting doesn't seem to be very good.
A middle-aged nurse came out of the courtyard and said, "You must be the new volunteers, right? Please come in!"
The caregiver looked at them as if they had seen a savior, which made Lin Xi and Ji Chong feel uneasy.
The caregiver was also very efficient. He brought the insects in and without any polite words, directly assigned one insect to an old man.
The insects assigned to Muas and his colleagues all had disabilities to varying degrees. One of them had no hands or feet, and needed the insects' help in walking, sitting, lying down, and washing.
The insect that Lin Xi needed to take care of had healthy limbs. Perhaps the nurse saw that he was the weakest and took special care of him.
"Uncle, are you thirsty? Would you like some water?"
The old man ignored him.
Lin Xi asked again: "Are you bored, uncle? Do you want to play some light computer games or watch some TV series?"
The old man still ignored him.
Lin Xi continued, "I'm quite skilled. How about I give you a shoulder massage and a back rub?"
The old man raised his eyebrows and said impatiently, "You young worm, you are so noisy!"
Lin Xi raised her eyebrows. So the old man likes quietness. Why didn’t you say so earlier?
Lin Xi nodded and said, "Okay, sir, call me if you need anything."
The old man turned his head to look out the window and ignored him.
Lin Xi went to take a look next door, and saw Muas next door.
"How's it going? Do you need any help?"
The insect that Muyas is taking care of suffered internal injuries in his early years and needs to take medicine on time. Muyas is preparing the medicine according to the instructions.
Prescribing medicine is simple, but this old man is not as easy to serve as the one in Linxi.
Either they dislike the water being too hot or the medicine being too bitter, and they refuse to take it.
Muas's face was tense, and he couldn't force the other party to take the medicine, so the situation was at a stalemate.
Seeing this, Lin Xi took the medicine directly and began to coax the old man in a good mood.
He is quite experienced in taking care of old grandfathers.
After a while, the old man was coaxed into happiness and took the medicine without being urged.
Muas was a little surprised. Lin Xi stood up and met his surprised eyes, then smiled: "Have you realized my charm and suddenly been fascinated by me?"
Muas's face, which had just been moved, suddenly turned cold and hard.
Lin Xi pulled Muyas out of the door. Muyas had a cold face and took his hand away after walking out: "Just talk, don't pull and tug."
Lin Xi was helpless. He glanced around the room and found that the old man didn't notice them. Then he whispered, "The one I'm taking care of has a good temper. How about we switch?"
Muas narrowed his eyes, suddenly snorted coldly, turned around and left without saying anything.
Lin Xi was a little confused. Was this an agreement or a disagreement?
Seeing Muas walking back into the room, Lin Xi thought to himself, if you don't want to change, then don't change. What's the point of snorting at him before leaving?
Lin Xi couldn't help but wonder, could it be that he thought he came here to show off?
Lin Xi cried out that he was wronged. He really did it with sincerity, wanting to make Muas's task easier.
Lin Xi returned to his room and saw that the old man was still sitting in the same position, looking out the window, as if he had not moved at all.
Lin Xi also looked out the window. The window faced the gate of the nursing home. If any insects came in, they would be the first to see them here.
"Uncle, are you waiting for the bug?"
The old man didn't say anything.
Seeing that the other party ignored him, Lin Xi started working.
The sun was shining brightly today. Lin Xi took down the mattress and replaced it with a new one, and threw the dirty one into the washing machine.
I found a rag in the drawer and started wiping the furnishings in the room.
The whole morning passed like this.
At noon, Parker and his friends went to get nutritional supplements, but these were not for the old grandfathers. The grandfathers were old, and one nutritional supplement a day was enough. These nutritional supplements were the volunteers' share.
In the afternoon, Lin Xi wanted the old man to go out for a walk and bask in the sun, but the old man refused to move.
The nurse passed by the door and saw the situation and said, "This old man has always been like this, don't worry about it."
Lin Xi said: "This is not good for your health."
The nurse smiled and said, "Don't worry, isn't it good?"
Lin Xi frowned and said nothing.
