The day before Admissions, overcast, 27°C
No.1 Settlement District
This district is among the first batches built for ordinary Residents in Jupiter City and is nearly thirty years old.
It is even older and more dilapidated than No.13 District where Luo Di lives. Many buildings are labeled for imminent demolition due to stability issues, and few people still live here.
Building Three, Apartment 502
A two-bedroom with a living room, simply furnished with outdated furniture, but the cleanliness is maintained exceptionally well.
The birdcage that should be hanging in the house is empty, without any sign of the bird.
Midnight,
The lights inside the house are all turned off, relying solely on the streetlights outside for illumination.
A woman in her forties sits before the dressing table in the master bedroom, surrounded by expensive cosmetics that seem out of place in this home.
It is time to sleep, but she is applying makeup.
