In the middle of leading a zombie-fighting charge in a post-apocalyptic world, Nina Chase finds herself transported to yet another nightmare—a toxic wasteland where 80% of the land is contaminated. Humanity is divided into five classes, and lucky Nina? She’s now stuck at the bottom as a fifth-tier citizen, a so-called "defective." Broke and desperate, Nina takes the only job she can find: a garbage cleaner. Rumor has it that cleaning jobs in the wasteland pay well and are easy enough. Dream job, right? But soon, Nina realizes that cleaning in this world isn’t what she expected. Her first assignment? Entering the abandoned Line 1 subway, where she encounters a fish-headed bureaucrat with a briefcase. Then, there's the popular hotpot restaurant that tries to eat its customers. Don’t even get her started on the haunted house with furniture that chases people at night, or the oceanarium filled with overly friendly merfolk, mechanical jellyfish that drain your blood, and invisible creatures lurking in the water. And let’s not forget the dental clinic, where it literally rains teeth. But the real nightmare? The cleaning company is hiding some huge secrets. The AI might be pulling all the strings, and the shady pharmaceutical company seems far from innocent. Nina’s quickly getting dragged into conspiracies she never wanted any part of. One wrong move in this wasteland, and it’s game over. Nina: Is the universe playing a sick joke on me? --------Hi! I have returned to Royal Road. Thank you for following/commenting/sharing/voting!
