Chapter 108: Sneaking in the middle of the night

The moon slowly rose, and the shadow (yīn) was darkly covered in Yuqian's car, which looked like it was covered with a mottled camouflage from a distance.

Yu Qian raised his right wrist and glanced at it, and said to Bai Tianqing

"It's almost time, let's go inside."

"Uncle Yu, you say, will something happen if the camera is placed there?" Bai Tianqing seemed to wake up, and hurriedly said, "I still think it's unreliable to just leave the camera on the side of the road, will it be stolen?" ”

"Steal? It's a military compound, don't worry, I've said hello to the patrol guards in the courtyard, and they'll help take care of it. Yu Qian comforted

"Then they won't keep watching, won't anything?"

Sensing Bai Tianqing's uneasiness, Yu Qian smiled slightly and said playfully, "So, why don't you go and stare at the point?" ”

"Uncle Yu, what are you talking about, we still have to investigate the funeral home!" Bai Tianqing hurriedly refused, "We have to hurry up, it's not good if it's late." ”

"Don't talk so much nonsense if you know." Yu Qian's tone changed, and he said solemnly, "Have you remembered everything I told you before?" Don't hold me back for a while. ”

"No, no." Bai Tianqing nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice.

Because Yu Qian watched Ma Wen's body being pushed into the incinerator, it was very likely that he appeared in the incineration room if he asked. Yu Qian studied the layout of the funeral parlor and decided to go directly into the funeral parlor from the back mountain and sneak into the incineration room to investigate.

S City Funeral Parlor covers a huge area, in addition to the main building, roughly divided into four areas, set funeral services, mortuary cremation, carved coffins, burial in the cemetery in one, is a super large comprehensive funeral institution.

Tonight, Yu Qian and Bai Tianqing's target was the incineration room located in the center of the entire funeral home, at the back of the main building complex. Considering the night duty staff, Yu Qian planned a route from the northeast corner to the foot of the mountain from the northeast corner to the cemetery area, and then climbed through an old wall at the foot of the mountain, and climbed up the mountain to avoid the main entrance and directly enter the incineration room.

If you can't find a clue in the incineration chamber, go back to the morgue through the hallway. If there is no problem with these two places, then the possibility of any problem with the funeral home can basically be ruled out. After all, Yu Qian watched Ma Wen's body be pulled from the morgue all the way to the incineration room that day, and he had touched Ma Wen's body with his own hands before that.

The security of the funeral parlor is not very high, on the one hand, due to its special (xìng) inherently few people, and on the other hand, there are really no items worth stealing. The valuable things of the whole funeral home are nothing more than the funeral supplies parked in the warehouse, and it is the right thing for the funeral home to prevent theft by insiders.

The two took advantage of the moonlight to quickly sneak into the cemetery, where rows of neat and white marble tombstones were arranged straightly, and the name of the tomb owner was carved in vigorous font. The entire sprawling cemetery has only one night watchman at night, occasionally carrying a flashlight to swing around.

Bai Tianqing followed Yu Qian's (shēn), his eyes fixed on Yu Qian's broad shoulders from the shadow of one tombstone (yīn) to the shadow (yīn) of another, and two shadows (shēn) in camouflage uniforms moved rapidly in the forest of steles. From time to time, Bai Tianqing could see that there was still water and flowers in front of a certain tombstone, or some other sundries for memorial services. Occasionally, when he paused, he could look up and see a black and white posthumous photo staring straight at him by the moonlight, and he was horrified to see.

"The sundries of the memorial service, the cleaning staff of the cemetery do not take advantage of the daytime to clean them up in time." Bai Tianqing could only rely on thinking of something in his heart to ease his nervous (qíng) feelings, and in a slight flash, Shenyu Qian had already thrown him off and ran out more than ten meters.

Although the huge cemetery was quiet and did not have a trace of popularity, Bai Tianqing still remembered Yu Qian's instructions before departure, and did not dare to shout, so he had to desperately turn his legs upside down to keep up with Yu Qian's pace. In the dark night, Yu Qian was like a cluster of erratic shadows, shuttling between them, leaving Bai Tianqing, who was not good at movement, far behind.

After running for a distance, Yu Qian also noticed that Bai Tianqing had not kept up with him, so he had to stop and lean against the shadow of a tombstone, watching Bai Tianqing catch up.

"What are you doing?" Yu Qian looked at the shadows of the night watchmen around him who were not on the lookout, and couldn't help but reprimand Bai Tianqing in a low voice to catch up

"Uncle Yu, you, you're walking too fast, I can't keep up." Bai Tianqing took out the small kettle beside his waist and took a sip of water, panting and said

"Drink less, there's nowhere for you to pee." Yu Qian said dissatisfiedly, "You follow closely, you have to climb the mountain in a while, and you don't have so much time to rub in." ”

Bai Tianqing nodded busily, he had always thought that his physical strength was good among his peers, but at this moment he realized that he was a second-level cripple compared to Yu Qian.

After passing through the cemetery calmly, Bai Tianqing's fear before setting off was obviously calmed down, and after thinking about it, he suddenly felt that his previous fear of ghosts was a little childish and ridiculous.

The courage was strong, and the strength suddenly surged, and then looked at the heavy funeral home (yīn) under the cover of the night, and it was no longer scary, thinking that he might solve a big secret by his own hands for a while, and suddenly a little hao (qíng) rose in his heart.

Yu Qian didn't know what had happened to Bai Tianqing's mentality after passing through the cemetery, holding a tactical flashlight covered with black cloth in his hand, carefully distinguishing the shape of the wall.

"Xiaobai, let's go in from here." After finding the right direction, Yu Qian turned off the flashlight and whispered to Bai Tianqing to come close to him. Stretched out his finger, pointed at Bai Tianqing, and crossed his fingers and pointed at his eyes to signal his attention. He took out an asbestos blanket from his backpack and threw it on the wall to cover it, bent his knees and gently boarded the wall, and easily climbed the wall with both arms.

Standing still at the top of the wall, Yu Qian bowed his head and beckoned Bai Tianqing, "Xiaobai, don't rub it off, come up quickly." ”

Bai Tianqing looked at Yu Qian who was lying on the wall in surprise, and couldn't understand for a while how Yu Qian, who looked majestic, climbed the wall more than two meters high. hurriedly walked to the wall, and also learned from Yu Qian to jump up and pick up the wall, but he grabbed it, but his arms didn't have the strength to pull himself up.

This wall is one of the few old walls in the funeral parlor, and the top of the wall is not pulled with barbed wire, but with glass sheets embedded in the cement as a precaution. Through the thin asbestos blanket, Bai Tianqing clearly felt the sharp edges of those pieces of glass, and he was extremely uncomfortable.

"Come on, where are you drying fish?" Yu Qian looked at Bai Tianqing hanging motionless on the wall, and couldn't help urging

"Uncle Yu... I can't climb up..."Bai Tianqing rubbed his face against the wall and said vaguely

Yu Qian at the head of the wall was speechless, reached out and grabbed Bai Tianqing's arm, and dragged him up with all his strength. The two carefully went down the fence to distinguish the position, and then touched the back door of the funeral home.

The hill that carries the main building of the funeral parlor is not steep but very long, and when he climbed to the top of the slope, Bai Tianqing was exhausted, his legs were filled with lead, and he couldn't take a single step, and his feet were like stepping on cotton.

"Uncle Yu, no, it's really not good, I have to take a break." Bai Tianqing pulled Yu Qian's sleeve and said weakly

"Hold on, it's coming soon, and even if you rest, you can't rest here." Yu Qian grabbed Bai Tianqing's wrist with his backhand and dragged him all the way to the door of the incineration room.

There are no items of value here, and the duty officers of the natural night watch are not interested in wandering around here. Yu Qian shook off Bai Tianqing's wrist and studied the door lock.

Finding the lock-picking tool from his pocket, Yu Qian held on to the two iron needles and concentrated on fiddling with the reeds in the lock cylinder. dragged Bai Tianqing, who was sitting on the ground, into the incineration room, and closed the door again.

"You're resting here against the door, pay attention to if there's anyone coming over from the night watch, do you hear me?" Yu Qian said in a low voice

"I'm rested, Uncle Yu, let's go in together." Thinking of acting separately from Yu Qian, Bai Tianqing suddenly felt a thrill, and hurriedly said that he had rested.

"Then you follow closely." Yu Qian nodded and led Bai Tianqing to find the crematorium where Ma Wen was cremated that day according to his memory.

The huge crematorium has a cold, metallic sheen, and the front is where the ashes are collected. The two walked through the adjacent leather curtain to the back of the crematorium, where there was a long conveyor belt.

"Uncle Yu, why are there so many cameras here?" Bai Tianqing looked at the camera next to the conveyor belt and asked curiously, the voice echoed in the room, and he couldn't help but shiver.

"Now the cremation process is open to the whole process, and families can watch the cremation process." Yu Qian said angrily: "The incineration takes more than seventy minutes from the beginning of the furnace, and the family can watch the whole process if necessary." ”

"Uncle Yu, there is so much surveillance here, we won't be filmed, right?" Bai Tianqing suddenly remembered another question

"It's possible, but under normal conditions (qíng) no one looks at it, and after seven days it will be covered."

Unlike Bai Tianqing, Yu Qian has been a criminal policeman for so many years, and he knows a lot about the crematorium, so he left Bai Tianqing, who was at a loss, and checked it carefully.

Yu Qian held a tactical flashlight covered with black cloth strips, and carried a slender saber in his hand to knock here and there, trying to find something abnormal. However, the crematoriums produced by different manufacturers are also different, and he is not a professional in this industry after all, and he is not sure whether it is normal or not.

Looking at Yu Qian, who was busy, Bai Tianqing also had the courage to come up and say

"Uncle Yu, did you see Ma Wen being pushed in with your own eyes that day?"

"How is it possible, I quit when I started incineration, how can I watch the whole time. But then again, except for the picture of burning in the furnace, the whole process of the corpse entering and leaving the furnace is monitored. Mutona and her husband should be watching, how can it be so easy to do things. Yu Qian said with his mouth and hands non-stop, and his words had already circled around the crematorium.

"Something is wrong, this stove is wrong." Yu Qian rubbed the stubble on his chin, feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it for a while.

"Huh? What's wrong? ”

"I always feel like there's something missing in this way, but I can't say it." Yu Qian racked his brains and thought about it, he rarely went to the back of the crematorium, and what could make him feel that something was wrong must be a very obvious problem.

Bai Tianqing didn't dare to disturb Yu Qian, and pretended to knock around the crematorium, wanting to see what was wrong.

"Where's the observation hole! By the way, what about the observation holes! Yu Qian reacted suddenly, "There is no monitoring in the furnace, but there must be an observation hole for the workers to confirm whether it is burned." ”

"Isn't it all computer-controlled and fully automatic incineration now? There's no need to look at the hole or anything, right? Bai Tianqing asked

"How is it unnecessary, who can guarantee that there will be no problems, no matter how well the electronic equipment is prepared, it is necessary to leave an observation hole to prepare for emergencies. If there is any fault in the furnace, it must be the most reliable observation hole, and no matter how advanced the crematorium is, it is impossible not to have this. Yu Qian went around to the front hall to pick up the bones and took a look, and sure enough, he didn't find a large observation hole, and the entire crematorium turned out to be a "black box" state after it began to burn.

Turning back the conveyor belt that transported the corpse behind, Yu Qian whispered to Bai Tianqing

"Maybe you kid is really wrong, there is really something wrong with this crematorium, I want to go in and take a look!"
