Yin Zhu forced herself not to think too much about it, to avoid affecting her appetite too much. She quickly finished the food on her plate, then hurriedly stood up and left the charity canteen—everyone else did the same, and it seemed that there were people specifically assigned to collect the tableware.
Back at her residence in Yaoguang Tower, Yin Zhu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This is only my first day at the nursing home, and I've only met a small fraction of the elderly people I've met, but the mystery is getting deeper and deeper.
Are the children at the Sunny and Cheerful Kindergarten not real children? Are the elderly in Sin City really old people? Yin Zhu expressed strong doubts about this question.
That's why she claimed to be applying for a job from the beginning.
If she were to become a child with short limbs, just like in kindergarten, her subsequent actions would be extremely difficult. The elderly in the Sin City Nursing Home are all very old and move very slowly. If Yin Zhu were to suddenly age, she would likely face many dangers and be quite passive.
Moreover, are there really only that many elderly people in Sin City?
The most outrageous rule is the one for pets:
15. Pets are not allowed in this retirement home. Your pet may make some residents feel uncomfortable.
However, you can board your pet at the office and soon see it at the retirement home. As long as it doesn't enter the retirement apartment, it's safe and harmless, and you can feed it any food you like.
Because Sin City is full of prisoners, there is hardly any production activity, so animals have almost disappeared, and even homeless people hunt for food in accordance with the rules.
Given this premise, it's quite peculiar that the Sin City Nursing Home even has pets.
Is it a fantasy pet, or...?
Yin Zhu considered some unsettling possibilities, and coupled with the phone call between the security guard and the boss before the job interview, it was hard not to speculate about various conspiracy theories.
If it were outside the city, Yin Zhu could indeed use reasons such as "animals can keep the elderly company" to explain and rationalize these things automatically. However, in Sin City, Yin Zhu's mind simply refused to accept such a simple and superficial reason.
To believe such a reason is an insult to her intelligence.
It is by no means an easy thing to be written out as a rule.
That said, in Yin Zhu’s eyes, the operation of Sin City was abnormal in many ways: for a society to function, there must be people engaged in primary and secondary industries, but the source of Sin City’s resources is often hard to describe. How can it expand outwards while simultaneously meeting its internal needs?
Of course, in this eerie world, getting bogged down in overly realistic issues would make Yin Zhu seem like she's crazy or overthinking things.
After all, the food in nursing homes is regularly refreshed in the refrigerator, so it wouldn't be so strange if someone told Yin Zhu that bread could grow on the supermarket shelves in Sin City.
