Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Undertaker

The eyes of the four of them looked in unison to the point where the light went. Wang Feiyu found the light switch here and immediately turned on the light.

The fluorescent lights flickered a few times and illuminated the entire space, and not far away, a man lay down.

Several people immediately walked over, and Ning Hao looked at it and looked at the corpse with a frightened face: "This is a tiger tooth!" ”

"What tiger fangs?" Wang Feiyu frowned and looked at Ning Hao seriously.

"We were together last night, he's the old man's son."

Murong Qianxue said: "Look at his nose, there are bruises, Officer Wang is right, there are traces of a fight outside. ”

Wang Feiyu squatted down and looked at the corpse carefully, although there had been a fight, these bruises were not enough to be fatal.

"The cause of his death was not due to force, but for another reason." Wang Feiyu stood up and said to Murong Qianxue, "Let the other police officers dispose of the body and take it away, and the autopsy will depend on you." ”

Murong Qianxue took out her mobile phone and was about to call the police, but here, the mobile phone could not receive any signal.

She suggested going back to the earth.

Before leaving, Ning Hao saw a device that had been connected to the top of this secret room, which should be the statue of the Virgin.

After a few people walked out of the basement in the basement, the rest of the officers had already arrived. They have already disposed of and put together the two dried corpses.

"Come down with us, there's a freshly dead corpse there." Murong Qianxue beckoned to the other police officers.

Back in the basement, go back the way you came, but the body is gone.

"This ...... How so? Ning Hao was surprised.

"There are other people in this basement!" Wang Feiyu raised his tone, "Now conduct a comprehensive search!" ”

Officers began to search, but found nothing. And here, there is no secret door, where is the corpse?

Murong Qianxue said: "It's not a way for us to search and wait here, let's take other police officers to transport the dried corpse down the mountain first." ”

Walking on the way down the mountain, Ning Hao was uneasy, not only did he not find out who picked up Ning Miao, but also encountered these unbelievable things.

Why was Huya killed?

Huya's body was transferred in a short period of time, and these series of events were much more difficult to deal with than the previous swimming pool murder and cannibal cases.

He always felt that there was a latent force secretly manipulating all this, but for a moment he didn't have the idea to figure it out.

Walking to the bottom of the mountain, Murong Qianxue and the other police officers quickly got into the police car and transported the body for examination.

Wang Feiyu said to Ning Hao: "I'm going to take a trip to the town and ask about the Huya you said, as well as the old man." ”

"I'll go with you."

"Then we'll go to the mayor's house."

"Then you drive, I'm not in very good shape."

Although Ning Hao was very worried about Ning Miao's safety, he tried his best to prove the fact that he was not in the New Sacred Heart Hospital last night.

Now that Huya is dead, only the old man can prove that he spent last night in a cabin in the woods.

But the most annoying thing is, even if it is proven, where is Ning Miao now?

He took out his mobile phone and dialed Ruan Xingchang's number: "Hey, where did you pick up Ning Miao?" ”

"I don't know what you're talking about?"

"When I went to the hospital today, Ning Miao was taken away, no matter who took it away, I just want to know, where will she be taken?"

The other party didn't let go and said: "I spent most of my time in class yesterday, and the rest of the time I stayed in the research institute with a few professors, I haven't been to the Sacred Heart Hospital, I don't believe you can go to confront people in these places!" ”

Honk......

After a busy sound, Ning Hao sighed helplessly.

When he came to the town, the police station helped contact the mayor, and Ning Hao followed Wang Feiyu to visit.

The mayor of the town did not look very old, almost forty years old, and he was well-read and eloquent.

Wang Feiyu asked: "Do you know that there is a Huya person in the town?" ”

"Tiger Teeth?" The mayor was puzzled and continued, "Are you talking about the third son of the Tang family, Tang Hu?" ”

Ning Hao answered: "His father told me that you asked him to guard the mountains and forests and prevent outsiders from setting foot in the Sacred Heart Hospital. ”

After hearing the words "Sacred Heart Hospital", the mayor's face changed slightly, and he was slightly solemn: "I didn't give such an order, but it's not strange that he said this." This Uncle Tang is a sick person, old and confused. ”

"What disease?" Wang Feiyu asked.

"It's not clear what the specific disease is, it's probably Alzheimer's disease, Alzheimer's disease or something." The mayor shook his head earnestly and continued, "Some people used to say that he had recruited something unclean, that he had a problem with his brain, that he didn't speak before and after, and that many people couldn't understand him, so many people kept a certain distance when they saw him, and no one dared to approach him. ”

After Ning Hao listened, the loudest words that fell in his mind were: "Recruited something unclean?" ”

"Tang Bo used to be an undertaker in the crematorium and often worked with corpses. When he retired, he kept chattering, and then he built that hut in the woods, and sometimes he would go there to keep vigil, and we would not care about him like that, and no one would set foot in that woodland anyway......"

After thinking of the explanation that the old man had told him about sedatives, Ning Hao asked, "But he actually has sedatives, where did that come from?" ”

"Is that so?" The mayor asked rhetorically, as if he didn't know.

Wang Feiyu interjected and asked, "Then where does this Uncle Tang live now?" ”

"Except for the wooden house, it is his old house at the entrance of Dongjie." "If you're going, I can show you the way." ”

I felt that this town mayor also knew very little about the affairs of the Tang family, and Ning Hao and they didn't get any effective information from him.

But now it is known that the old man used to be an undertaker.

This profession has been revered from ancient times to the present day.

This kind of work requires a strong psychological quality, after all, in addition to facing the corpses of natural deaths, they also need to face those who have died unnatural deaths****** accidents, suicides, homicides, ...... The image of these dead is generally chilling.

Walking out of the mayor's house, Ning Hao asked Wang Feiyu: "You have been a police detective for so long, what do you think of the undertaker's career?" ”

"I have a lot of respect for them." Wang Feiyu said.

The mayor answered: "Uncle Tang used to be responsible for putting makeup on the dead in the field, and I have heard others say that this job actually requires a high degree of professionalism.

For those corpses that look ugly, the mortuary will sew them with needles and threads, fill them with cotton, and change the clothes of the deceased in the order of socks, shoes, pants, and clothes.

After that, plastic surgery and makeup are performed, and the whole process takes more than 3 hours...... Watching the deceased with a damaged face become natural and serene, the work of the mortuary is completed. ”

Wang Feiyu didn't mention the matter of the dried corpse to the mayor of the town, and now he is waiting for Murong Qianxue to issue an autopsy report.

They came to an old house in a deep compound at the entrance of Dongjie.

The mayor pointed to the old mansion and said: "This is the ancestral house of the Tang family, which has now been listed as a key protected cultural relic, but Uncle Tang still lives here." ”

"Usually he lives here alone?" Ning Hao asked more.

The mayor said, "Yes, usually the older generation of the town will come over to help. His eldest son and second daughter come to see him every week. ”

"What about the youngest son Tang Hu?"

"I rarely came here before, because Tang Hu was working in the field, which was not very convenient, but he often appeared in the town recently, and it is estimated that he suddenly realized his filial piety."
