Because she was unfamiliar with the hospital environment, Yin Zhu didn't wander around and waited patiently at the entrance of the emergency room until Grandma Yan was wheeled out.
Yin Zhu hadn't encountered this situation on Earth, so she could only clumsily imitate what she'd seen in TV dramas, anxiously approaching a doctor with wavy hair and asking:
"How is the situation?"
"I suffered a comminuted fracture of my ankle. Fortunately, I was brought in in time and I'm fine now, but I'll need to stay in the hospital for two or three days."
The doctor with the wavy hair simply replied.
"How long will you be staying? I have to go back to work."
Yin Zhu wasn't sure if working at the nursing home and accompanying someone in the hospital would be paid separately, but if staff members were required to bring someone to the hospital, then it should probably be included.
Sure enough, the doctor with the wavy hair who had just answered the question confirmed Yin Zhu's guess: "You don't need to go back. We'll notify the nursing home. The hospital is more important."
Hospitals have a higher priority.
Yin Zhu nodded, accepting the doctor's explanation, and followed beside the hospital bed: "Which ward will she be staying in?"
The doctor with the wavy hair took out her notebook, scribbled a few lines, and found a blank page: "Room B26 on the fourth floor should be empty now, right? Let's stay in that room."
Yin Zhu noticed that there was bloodstain in the lower left corner of the notebook, and there were also splatter marks next to it.
Doctors wouldn't use this to hit people, would they?
If that's not the case, then it can only mean that the lower left corner of this notebook was once soaked in blood, otherwise there wouldn't be dark red marks only in that area.
As Yin Zhu pushed the unconscious Granny Yan into the ward, she realized it was a double room.
"During the stay, you can sleep on the bed next to the patient."
"No need, I can sleep on the floor."
Yin Zhu declined the doctor's suggestion. After all, the Sin City Nursing Home clearly had rules regarding cognitive impairment. Who knew if she would be considered a patient while sleeping in a hospital bed? If the doctor stopped her from leaving, would she still be able to find the city lord?
Having spent several days navigating the City of Sin, Yin Zhu had almost figured out the rules of the supernatural world and even started to predict what rules might exist.
The rules may differ in style for different versions.
However, Sin City is the same instance. Even if there are slight differences in the rules, the differences will not be significant. All the rules are new rules built on the same set of rules and have the same foundation. To give an example, it is like all swords returning to their origin.
The doctor moved Grandma Yan's bed to its designated spot, secured the movable bed, and then briefly explained the situation to Yin Zhu:
"There are no nurses in our hospital. If anyone claims to be a nurse, please do not believe anything they say."
"And what about 'hello'?"
"...They probably wouldn't say something so boring to you."
"So, what if you don't like eating shit?"
"In short, don't believe it." Dr. Wavy Hair interrupted Yin Zhu's fault-finding behavior and placed a bag of medicine on the bedside table: "You can find the specific precautions in the bag. Remember to give the patient the medicine on time. We have other things to do."
"You're not a nurse, are you?"
Yin Zhu suddenly asked a question.
This time, Dr. Wavy Hair stared into Yin Zhu's eyes for a while before uttering two words: "Of course not."
"That's good, I'm not a patient either." Yin Zhu smiled and started to shoo him away. "You can go ahead and do your work, I'll take good care of her."
After Dr. Wavy Hair left the hospital bed, Yin Zhu's smile faded slightly.
This person is definitely not a nurse.
If he were a nurse, then his statement "Don't trust nurses" would be false, and conversely, "You can trust nurses," in which case his statement would be true. However, his true statement is "Don't trust nurses," which is a contradiction.
But why is this doctor looking at me so strangely? What is he wary of?
Perhaps the answer to all of this can be found in the rules.
Yin Zhu easily found a piece of paper in the bag full of medicine; it was covered with tiny, densely written characters.
Both sides of the paper were filled with information: the front side contained the timing and dosage of medication, while the back side contained the rules governing the area—the "Qinglongshan Royal Sanatorium Headquarters Hospital Rules."
Yin Zhu had heard of the hospital's name before and remarked at the time, "No wonder this place looks so wealthy." She never expected to see it again so soon, especially in a hospital. Actually, there was no hospital name displayed before entering, so this was the first time Yin Zhu had seen the hospital's full name.
"That's a really long name."
Yin Zhu casually made a comment, then glanced down and suddenly felt that something was not quite right.
[Rules of the Headquarters Hospital of Qinglongshan Royal Sanatorium]
[1. Hospital rules take precedence over nursing home rules; please stay in the hospital for at least three days.]
2. Remember to take your medication on time every day, two tablets each time. Your doctor will come for regular check-ups.
