Chapter 154: Funeral Parlor Steals Corpses (3)
The large wooden door had been locked by the funeral truck driver with a marble.
Manager Zhou asked Han Shengmei to stay here, and walked around the cold storage for a while, and when he returned, he had an extra slender steel wire in his hand.
I saw Manager Zhou insert the steel wire into the keyhole, stir it up and down for a while, and then use the palm of his hand to push it hard, and the iron lock was easily bounced open.
Then, he slowly pushed the big wooden door open one meter wide, led Han Shengmei into the cold storage, and smelled the pungent smell of formalin disinfection in the morgue.
They didn't dare to turn on the lights, relying on the faint light of their mobile phones, they quickly found Hua Nianping's location.
Manager Zhou leaned down, supported his hands forward, and then lowered his head and shook his shoulders, and Hua Nianping's body was firmly on his back.
Han Shengmei saw that Manager Zhou's movements were agile, as if he was well-trained, and he couldn't help but be secretly surprised in his heart.
Under normal circumstances, the corpse of a person after death will begin to ossify in about two hours, and it will become stiff after ten hours, but when Hua Nianping is put into the carriage, his body can be curled and laid flat, and his skin is still soft as usual.
Touching Hua Nianping's face with her hand, Han Shengmei found that it was slightly cold, and she thought that this was probably because it had been frozen in the freezer just now.
Han Shengmei thought in her heart that now Hua Nianping's breathing and heart have long since lost signs of life, and it is impossible to rescue him if he is sent to any hospital.
The only thing she can do is to return Hua Nianping's whole corpse, take him to Shenzhen, choose a good cemetery, and bury him properly, and it is not in vain that Hua Nianping helped Walter Company a few days ago.
Both Han Shengmei and Manager Zhou are well aware that according to the Criminal Law, stealing the body of another person is also a very serious crime.
The two did not dare to slack off at the moment, and decided to follow the location they lived at this time, and immediately drove away from Beijing along the southwest direction of Fangshan District, aiming towards Baoding and Shijiazhuang in Hebei Province.
After calculation, the journey to Shenzhen is roughly 2,700 kilometers, and if they drive this delivery car along the Beijing-Guangzhou Expressway in shifts day and night, it will be enough time in one day.
However, Han Shengmei was very worried that she would encounter accidental police interrogation on the highway, so she could only choose to take National Highway 107.
After driving from Fangshan for a few hours, Manager Zhou suddenly shouted "not good", because the road sign in front showed that it was no longer the planned direction of Baoding, but to the east of the foot of the Taihang Mountains.
It turned out that in a hurry, it was actually at a highway intersection in Hebei, forking off the 107th National Highway, and rushing west along the way.
The road in front of me is even more uncertain.
Fortunately, Yizhou belongs to Baoding City, Hebei Province, and there must be a provincial highway between the two places. But at this time, it was more than three o'clock in the morning, and it was dark all around, and there was no one to guide the way.
Han Shengmei saw that Manager Zhou was very anxious and tired, so she asked him to lie down in the driver's seat and rest for a while, and wait until dawn to make plans.
This nap lasted until dawn, and when Han Shengmei woke up, she saw that she was the only one left in the cab, so she got out of the car and moved her legs on the side of the road.
She raised her eyes and saw that on the mountain road two hundred meters away, there was a large and dense ancient tree, soaring high in the clouds, and a boulder several meters high stood under the tree.
Not far away, there is a big lake, the stream is green, and the vastness is boundless; There is a mountain by the lake, and on the top of the mountain stands a tall tower, shaped like a sharp sword, pointing straight to the sky.
At this time, the sky was faintly cloudy, and the cool breeze around him was slow, although it was winter and not completely dissipated, but the refreshing breath came to the face, which made Han Shengmei feel refreshed.
Manager Zhou's face was full of excitement, and he walked back with a smile.
He originally found out that this place was not far away, which was where the county seat of Yizhou was located, and he had been there many years ago. In the city, there is one of his comrades-in-arms who was in the North Sea Fleet, and he has opened chain pharmacies in many cities and counties in Tianjin and Hebei, and is also one of the main distributors of Walter's pharmaceutical products.
Not long ago, he also contacted this comrade-in-arms surnamed Chen and asked him for a part of the accounts owed to the office.
The two of them hadn't eaten since last night, and they both felt very hungry at this time. Manager Zhou had already used his mobile phone to contact his comrades-in-arms, who happened to be at home in Yizhou City.
They drove along the mountain road to the old tree. But I saw that the trunk of the tree was covered with green moss, the diameter was too wide, and there were piles of pebbles under the tree, and the grass and trees were overgrown.
The two of them chose a relatively flat grass next to the boulder several meters high, and carried Hua Nianping out of the carriage, with Han Shengmei left to take care of it, and Manager Zhou drove alone to meet his comrades.
Han Shengmei instructed Manager Zhou to bring back some food, and also buy a pair of shoes according to the shoe size on Hua Nianping's feet.
She was extremely reluctant to see Hua Nianping taken to Shenzhen barefoot.
After Manager Zhou left, Han Shengmei looked at Hua Nianping who was lying on the ground for a while, and couldn't bear the bruises and sludge on his body and head, so he used the mineral water bottle on the car, went back and forth many times, and took a little water from Bihu Lake to scrub him.
Gradually, the grass around Hua Nianping was soaked in a large area of red by the blood that flowed down.
After slowly washing away all the blood stains and mud on Hua Nian's plane, Han Shengmei's heart suddenly moved, and she couldn't help but secretly think that the man in front of her might really be saved.
Because, although more than ten hours have passed, Hua Nianping's pale face still has some subtle touches under the direct sunlight.
And when Han Shengmei's fingers, which were soaked in cold water, touched Hua Nianping's limbs, she would obviously feel a kind of skin elasticity and warmth.
In medicine, if the human heart stops beating for more than half an hour, doctors often use this as a criterion and consider the patient dead. However, the premise is that necessary rescue measures such as medication, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, ventilator, and electrocardiogram testing are taken.
But as soon as Hua Nianping was admitted to the hospital, it was determined that there was no need for rescue. Therefore, in Han Shengmei's view, the emergency center of that hospital did not rescue Hua Nianping's condition ineffectively, but did not rescue him in many ways at all.
However, in front of him, Hua Nian was lying calmly and silently on the grass under the big tree, which was an indisputable fact.
Han Shengmei thought that when she was studying at a medical university, in clinical medical theory, for traumatic brain injury patients who were in a deep coma, if the patient had a strong desire to survive and was constantly called by relatives, there would be a certain chance of waking up.
"Brother Nianping—"
Han Shengmei then tried to call the first call.
Thinking of the physically disabled man in front of her, when she was still a teenager, she was very impressed by Hua Nianping's internship in her father's company, although he was lame, he looked elegant and introverted, especially those deep eyes, which not only flashed with a smart and charming gaze, but also gave people a melancholy and blurred feeling.
Now, he closed his eyes tightly, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.
