Chapter 16: The Weeping Corpse
"What's wrong?" Shen Yihuan looked down at the photo carefully, but didn't find anything unusual.
I didn't dare to look at the photo again, because it was none other than Mr. Chen's secretary Li Nian.
Shen Yihuan looked at me in surprise: "Do you know her?"
I tried to keep my composure: "Uh, I've seen it once...... In the afternoon of the day of Mr. Chen's cremation. ”
"That's right, it's okay, you don't have a psychological burden, if you really can't do it, go to the side to rest first, I can do it alone." Shen Yihuan put the photo on the operating table, pointed to a chair not far away, and motioned for me to come over.
I glanced at the bloody corpse, and Li Nian's expression instantly appeared in my mind.
I met two sirs in the director's office just now, saying that the murderer had committed suicide in fear of crime, it is difficult to say that it is Li Nian, after all, I also heard someone in the farewell hall say that she is the most suspicious.
The most terrible thing is that I can't help but make up the picture in my brain, from when Li Nian asked me to burn the ghost charm along with Mr. Chen's body, to now she appears in front of me like a puddle of meat mud.
I seem to hear her grievances, if I had put the ghost charm on Mr. Chen's corpse, would she not have fallen to her death, so I should be the person she hates the most.
"Yang Kui, are you okay?" asked Shen Yihuan with concern.
I woke up like a dream, folded my hands and bowed to Li Nian's body, and muttered: "Li Da Beauty, there is a debtor and a debtor, don't blame me, I don't want you to die." ”
Shen Yihuan was shocked and angry at my actions, and scolded: "What are you doing? Aren't you afraid of anything? What are you doing?"
I forced my composure and explained, "I'm not afraid before I meet a ghost, but I'm afraid of encountering it, so I'll just in case." ”
Bang......
The headlight in the corner of the powder room was broken, and a puff of white smoke came out.
Shen Yihuan and I looked at the white smoke, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was cold to the freezing point.
"I didn't ...... Thing, the lamp has long been out of order, just let the master fix it later, let's use the spare lamp first. Shen Yihuan turned around and slapped the backup power switch, and the makeup room instantly returned to brightness.
However, the power of the backup lamp is small, although it can be illuminated, it is not as bright as the headlight.
As a result, Shen Yihuan and I were bright in front of our eyes, but there was darkness behind us, and I couldn't help but wonder if there was a pair of eyes staring at me viciously in the dark.
Shen Yihuan said vigilantly: "Okay, don't be stunned, the deceased must be repaired today, and she can't be allowed to spend the night in the dressing room." ”
I shuddered slightly, but I still wanted to know why: "Why?"
"No why, just no, it's the rule. Shen Yi was anxious, with a hint of anger between his eyebrows.
I decided to remain silent, so I picked up tools and worked with her to fix them.
As time passed, Li Nian's face gradually became three-dimensional, but it only regained a silhouette, her facial features seemed to be glued to the skin, twisted and arrogant, like a stitched ragdoll.
Shen Yihuan has tried his best to repair it, but it is still to no avail, and it is absolutely impossible to restore it to the way it was when he was alive.
I looked at the wall clock on the wall, there was still more than half an hour before the end of work, if it was normal, I would be happy, but not today, I must complete the body repair before the end of work.
Although I don't know what the consequences of the corpse staying overnight in the dressing room will be, judging from Shen Yihuan's reaction, it must not be a good thing.
So I silently prayed in my heart that I would finish my work early and leave the dressing room as soon as possible.
I asked, "Probably...... How long is it going to be?"
Shen Yihuan didn't raise his head: "Don't ask, hurry up, you fix the back of the deceased's head with rivets, add a few more nails, and make it more reliable." ”
I picked up a nail gun and aimed it at the back of Li Nian's head, but I refused to cut the hair, always feeling that it was cruel to drive steel into her skull, even if she was dead.
"What are you doing? Didn't I tell you? Empty yourself and don't think about anything. "Shen Yihuan snatched the nail gun from my hand, and quickly fired several shots at the shattered skull.
The bones and metal grind against each other, an indescribable harsh sound, a bit like the squeak of chalk writing on a blackboard.
Soon Li Nian's skull was fixed, and the next step was to cover the head with artificial skin, which was a meticulous job that could not tolerate sloppiness.
Shen Yihuan and I both know that there is not much time left for us, and we have to come up with the fastest speed to repair it, and at the same time ensure the effect of the repair.
"Do you think she's going to resent me?" I muttered.
Shen Yihuan didn't understand my words a little, his forehead tightened, and asked, "Why do you resent you?"
At this time, I realized that Shen Yihuan didn't know much about the inside story, and even just sorted out the relationship between Li Nian and Mr. Chen, but whether there was anything else behind the two, no one could tell.
Shen Yihuan said anxiously: "Come on, come on, you hold the chin of the deceased, and I will stitch up the broken forehead." ”
I hurriedly stretched out my hand to cooperate, the coldness of the corpse passed through the glove to my fingertips, I wanted to withdraw my hand, but I could only insist in order to cooperate with the work.
When Shen Yihuan finished sewing the minced flesh on Li Nian's cheeks and forehead, I took a look at it and almost lost my breath.
Due to the swelling of the muscles after the death of the person, the skin could not be covered, and more than half of Li Nian's eyeballs were exposed, which looked very scary.
"Okay, there's one last step left, rub some foundation on her, cover the needlework scar as much as possible, remember, the movement must be light, as if the deceased is sleeping......"
As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Yihuan's body swayed from side to side, and I hugged her and said with concern: "What's wrong with you?"
Shen Yihuan said weakly: "I suddenly felt a little dizzy, maybe I was guilty of low blood sugar, help me to sit next to me for a while, you hurry up and put makeup on the deceased." ”
I stared at Shen Yihuan's pale cheeks, and doubts rose in my heart, why didn't I faint at this stubble sooner or later? Is it intentional to train me, or is Li Nian's ghost making trouble?
"I'll take care of the rest, and you rest first. I settled Shen Yihuan on the chair, picked up a makeup pen and walked to Li Nian's body.
The makeup powder flew under the small brush, and only a small part was left on Li Nian's face, because after the death of a person, the body would become stiff, and many times the foundation could not be hung up.
I try to let myself go, holding a tray in one hand and a paintbrush in the other, like a painter sketching my work.
But whenever I see Li Nian's rolled eyes, I always feel that it will roll in the next second, and the more timid I am, the stronger that feeling will be.
"How's it going?" Shen Yihuan held the thermos cup in both hands, his spirit eased a little, but he still looked soft and weak.
"Right away. I replied as I put the finishing touches on Li Nian.
Shen Yihuan was not at ease, slowly walked to the front, pointed to the mouth of the deceased, and said, "Remember to wear lipstick, it can't be big red, it can't be dark red." ”
I was stunned, I didn't know the visual difference between bright red and dark red, Shen Yihuan looked at me stunned, turned around and touched a lipstick from the shelf, and motioned to apply it to the deceased.
"Miss Li, I'll put lipstick on you to make you beautiful. Of course, we have limited repair technology and can only restore you to where you are now, so don't blame us. I put lipstick on Li Nian and muttered softly, this time Shen Yihuan didn't laugh at me, but sighed lightly and left.
I continued: "No matter what is going on between you and Mr. Chen, the past is in the past, so don't worry about it anymore......"
Suddenly, I was stunned by the scene in front of me, Li Nian's eyes actually shed two lines of liquid, as if they were teardrops, but how could the deceased shed tears?
"Shen Yihuan, come on...... She ......"
"What's wrong?"
Shen Yihuan heard the panic in my words, and an ominous premonition surged in her heart, and she rushed to Li Nian's corpse as fast as she could.
"Is she crying? I'm not mistaken, you're well-informed, tell me it's a normal reaction of a corpse, right? I shook Shen Yihuan's arm, and she stared at Li Nian's corpse.
Shen Yihuan muttered to himself: "The corpse sheds tears, and the person walks back." ”
I exclaimed, ", what do you mean? ”
Shen Yihuan pointed to the wall clock on the wall, the time had reached 4:55, and there were still five minutes to get off work.
"Hurry up, get out of this room right away. Shen Yihuan closed the zipper of the body bag, and then firmly fixed the body with the bandage on the operating table.
I didn't have time to ask the reason, so I picked up my phone and ran to the door, and Shen Yihuan hurriedly followed behind.
", the wall clock is broken. "I habitually glanced at my phone, and found that it was already half past five, and the power light of the wall clock had been turned off, and the hands were fixed at the position just now.
"It's broken, the door is locked. Shen Yihuan pulled the door hard, but he couldn't open it.
Knock Knock......
A strange sound echoed in the dressing room.
