At three o'clock in the afternoon, in the back alley of Taiyuan Hospital.
Chao Xue was weak and hunched over, pouring the last bucket of filth into the Night Incense Car. The rancid smell mixed with the bitterness of the medicine left him unable to open his eyes. The two young medical workers had already fled, leaving him, a rootless old eunuch, to clean up the mess.
"Old castrated dog, please be smarter with your hands and feet!" The night guard shouted from a distance.
He smiled apologetically, showing half of his yellow teeth. There was some blood stuck to the edge of the bucket, and he used his hands to pick it out - anyway, these hands had been soaked in the smell for a long time.
