She chose the pedestrian street because she had once worked a part-time job there for a few months at a Japanese-owned amusement park. At that time, she was still studying early childhood education; she worked regular shifts on weekdays, and took on part-time hours on weekends and holidays.
Her hourly wage in 2020 was 20.5 yuan, which later rose to 22.5 yuan. It was a rare, interesting part-time job that offered relatively high pay among the options available to her.
However, the amusement park where she used to work was not the one on the pedestrian street. She didn't go to that branch because it was too far away. The subway didn't go directly there, requiring a transfer to a bus, and the commute alone took over two hours. If she got assigned to the late shift that ended at 10:30 PM, she wouldn't get back to campus until the early morning hours—it wasn't safe, and the school wouldn't allow it.
