Chapter 56: Who's Playing Whom
In recent years, lipstick has suddenly become popular, basically all young girls will carry a few tubes of lipstick in their carry-on bags, it can be said that a certain Li surnamed has brought goods, revived an industry through live broadcasts, I don't know what that thing is made of, I heard that there is pig blood?
I don't know.
After waiting for more than a minute, the spirit of the hearse finally finished writing, and there were only two words: girl.
The child is also written incorrectly, and there is an extra 丿 below.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
The spirit of the hearse remained mysterious and did not respond, I pondered while driving, puzzled, but looking at the handwriting of the spirit of the hearse, although it was relatively naïve and ugly, the handwriting was not hurried, unlike last time, it was written in a hurry, which shows that the gaffe is not serious, maybe it just gave me a kind reminder (last time the situation was critical, it was written in a hurry).
"Nothing else?" I asked again.
Not only that, but the word "girl" gradually faded and finally disappeared.
"Well, if something happens, please notify me in time." I said to the air, and the spirit of the hearse still didn't respond.
I deliberately pressed the speed of the car, all the way carefully, and when I arrived at the city funeral home, it was already ten o'clock in the evening, I asked them to park the car at the door of the morgue, after opening the car door, first evacuate and drive a distance, and then I invited Lao Qin over, and the two of them cooperated, and successively transported seven corpses with different postures, but they were all more shocking into the morgue and put them in the freezer, but they could not be numbered for the time being, because all the corpses had no skin, let alone clothing, and the identification work was estimated to be carried out only when the family of the deceased came.
After everything was done, Lao Qin and I came out, he even retched a few times, but in the end he held back and didn't spit it out, I took a piece of Huazi from the car and gave it to him, Lao Qin nodded, accepted it by default, sandwiched it in his clothes, and staggered back to the duty room.
I pulled over the water hose again, rinsed all the metal coffins in the hearse (there are drainage holes underneath, just flush it, no one needs to go in to clean it), wash away the blood, fat and other dirt, and then called them over and drove the hearse back to the front yard.
The two colleagues were okay, after all, they didn't have direct contact with the corpse, and they came back safely, both gloating and elated, because there was a subsidy to take.
Xiao Wang looked a little regretful, and secretly told me that if there is this kind of work next time, give priority to him, and he will definitely not be afraid.
I didn't train everyone in the hearse class to be a "senior driver" who specializes in pulling people who died unnaturally, this job is really not something that anyone can do, not to mention anything else, is there a hearse spirit in their hearse to assist? Definitely not (I didn't have it in the car before).
Out of the driver's cab, Wu Shan was still waiting for me.
"How's it going, Boss? Hire me? Wu Shan is very confident.
I took out a wad of money from my wallet, about more than 3,000, just so much cash: "Take it, the labor fee for this trip is hard for you." ”
"What do you mean?" Wu Shan put her hands in her pockets and didn't take the money, "You still don't want me?" ”
"I want to, but the price you offer is too high." I smiled and said, 50,000, the five buddies of our hearse team combined, the monthly salary is not so much money!
"Is 50,000 high?" Wu Shan raised her eyebrows, "In the past, when I was racing in the imperial capital, the entry fee for one game was 50,000!" ”
"Then you can go back to the imperial capital and continue to play." I laughed.
Wu Shan didn't get angry at my teasing, she just pouted, shook back and forth in place, and bowed her head and said, "I just want to find excitement!" ”
"It's because your family won't let you drive a race car, right?" I guessed.
Wu Shan nodded: "Well, my dad said that driving a car is too dangerous, don't let me do it, and said that you can drive any car, but you can't drive a car anymore, I am angry with him, so I want to try to drive a hearse." ”
"Not everyone can drive a hearse, you have no problem with your skills, no matter how fast or slow, you can master it very well, but ...... Do you believe in ghosts? I deliberately grimaced Xie Xin'an's demeanor.
"Ghosts?" Wu Shan sneered, "Don't be funny, I'm a materialist, how can there be a ghost in the world!" It's just those stupid people and laymen who scare themselves. ”
"Don't believe me, right?"
"Don't believe it!"
"But there really are ghosts." I'm in the right way.
"Then prove it to me! It's like the real thing! Wu Shan pouted.
Although I have seen ghosts, I can't summon ghosts, I have to rely on chance encounters, when I was in the morgue just now, everything was very calm, I didn't meet ghosts, Xie Xin'an didn't seem to be here, how should I prove it to Wu Shan?
There's a way!
"Get in the car, I'll take you somewhere." I pulled out Alpha's car keys.
"Where?"
"Cafe."
"Is there a ghost in the café?" Wu Shan rubbed her hands and asked, it seemed that she was still looking forward to it, and when she saw a real ghost after a while, would she pee her pants!
The two drove away from the funeral home and headed for Yincheng Street, on the way, Wu Shan kept listening to the song with headphones plugged in, humming in her mouth, I don't know if she was pretending to be relaxed, or if she was already relaxed, she was not afraid at all.
Entering Yincheng Street, looking at the funeral supply stores on both sides of the street, Wu Shan seemed a little scared, took off her headphones, and looked here and there from time to time.
"Haven't been here before?" I asked.
Wu Shan shook her head: "No, I've been out of town all the time, rarely in this city, isn't it all for the dead here?" How can there be a café? ”
"Dead people drink coffee, too." I joked, and Wu Shan visibly shivered and stopped squeaking.
When I arrived at the door of Yuantai Cafe, it was almost eleven o'clock, and there were still a few living customers here during the day, but at night, I was foiled by the dim lights of the surrounding shops, and it was estimated that no one dared to come.
"Inside...... Is there really a ghost? Wu Shan slowly unbuckled her seat belt and asked in a low voice.
"Not necessarily, try your luck, maybe there is, maybe not." I laughed.
Turned off the engine and got out of the car, looking through the window, there were really two customers, two little nurses, it should be from the second hospital next door, night shift, come over for a cup of coffee to refresh yourself, I knocked on the co-pilot glass, Wu Shan reluctantly came down, lifted the brim of the cap, and looked at the signboard of the café: "Okay, it seems that I have heard of this café." ”
The city is a third-tier town, and there are only three or five cafes in total, and it is strange that idlers like her who have money, wild and petty bourgeoisie at home have not heard of it.
Entering the café and looking at the front desk, Xiaoli and Liao Xin were standing inside.
"Huh?" Xiao Li's eyes were sharp, and she saw Wu Shan, who hadn't come in yet, and whispered, "My lord, your girlfriend is wow?" ”
"No, ordinary friend, is there a floor upstairs?" I looked back, Wu Shan took a deep breath, tightened her face, pushed the door and came in.
"Yes, please come with me." Xiao Li walked around the counter and greeted warmly.
I nodded to Liao Xin, and she also nodded at me, it was originally a nodding friend, and I may be able to get acquainted with her in the future, but I have to take the initiative to have a good relationship with her, people's father, but the God of Wealth of the underworld, is always rich!
Xiao Li led me and Wu Shan to the second floor, I noticed that Wu Shan had been staring at Xiao Li's pair of chopstick legs, the same as when I first came, because those two legs were too fake, although Xiao Li can also walk like a human (but in front of me, she is used to floating around), but when walking, the muscles on the calves will not be deformed at all, just like two silicone legs.
On the second floor, it was still the No. 1 private room, and I sat opposite Wu Shan and pushed the menu to her.
Wu Shan looked at it casually: "You order, I'll do it." ”
"Two cups of Americano." I say.
"Okay, you two wait." Xiaoli withdrew with the menu in her hand.
"Did you notice anything out of the ordinary?" I asked with a smile.
"I don't think anything is right anywhere! It's eerie! Wu Shan lowered her voice and whispered.
"Right? This is a café that specializes in ghosts. ”
"But...... Where the hell is? Wu Shan asked.
"Didn't you see it just now?" I took a sip of lemonade, took out my flowers, and lit one.
"The waiter?" Wu Shan's eyes widened.
I nodded, "What, isn't it like?" ”
Wu Shan was noncommittal and looked out the window suspiciously.
It was still raining a lot outside the window, and under the yellow street lamps, people without umbrellas were strolling forward.
"Huh? Why is it raining? When I got off the bus just now, it was still full of stars! Wu Shan wondered.
"What you see is not Yin Cheng Street just now." I say.
"What's that?"
"Underworld."
"Huh?" Wu Shan shuddered for a moment, and quickly retracted her gaze, "True, true or false, don't scare me!" I'm too timid! ”
I took a puff of my cigarette, shook my head and smiled, "You say, where are we now?" ”
"Cafe!"
"What floor?"
"Second floor, what's wrong?" Wu Shan blinked.
"When you entered the door just now, didn't you look up at the signboard, recall, how many floors are there in this café?" I smiled at her frightened look, just like me that day.
Wu Shan tilted her head and thought about it, and suddenly her pupils widened: "This is a bungalow!" How can there be a second floor! ”
"So, let's both of us are in the underworld now."
"You! Are you a human or a ghost! Wu Shan suddenly had a suspicion on my head.
Before I could answer, outside the private room, a coquettish laugh suddenly came: "Heh, the thief shouted to catch the thief, threw himself into the net, and smashed the little, and actually deceived my person?" You don't open your dog's eyes to see whose territory this is! ”
When the words fell, Xie Xin'an lifted the curtain and entered the private room, wearing a white impermanent uniform, wearing a high hat, and carrying the mourning stick in her hand, before I could react, she smashed Wu Shan's head with a stick!
