An Eco-Ship harboured a forbidden zone.
As soon as the assistant was assigned to the Life Science Department, they heard about the existence of the forbidden area. If not required by work, all department employees kept their distance, unwilling to step even half a step into the forbidden zone. On the occasions that work necessitated it, they mostly delegated the task to newcomers.
They had one thing in common, after returning from the forbidden zone, newcomers usually fell seriously ill and missed several days of work.
Fu Ling, the supervisor, had long since grown accustomed to this. She would reward these employees with a holiday until their physical and mental state fully recovered.
The assistant had always thought these were just spooky tales spun by bored people to scare those who had just joined.
