"Any idea why I like Duck Duck?" What responded to Xia Min was the blank gaze of the man in the mask.

"I like Team Rocket...", there was a long silence before the masked man finally said this.

Inadvertently, the sky seems to be talked to death.

In order to alleviate the embarrassment, Xia Min changed the subject: "By the way, the Liberation Association, is there any danger when removing the spirit?" ”

"Ordinary spirits are not threatening, just like the little girl just now, she is at most scaring and scaring people, and after being frightened, she will get sick at most.

But if it's an evil spirit, it's hard to say, our city's chapter, as far as I know, one or two members die every year.

Of course, most of the time there is no danger, and the luckier members will not even encounter evil spirits for the rest of their lives. The man in the mask explained.

Xia Min had an expression of admiration: "The reason why our city is bright is because of these heroes that we can't see to keep the darkness out!" ”

The man in the mask lowered his head, with a smile in his eyes, as if he was very useful: "It's not so exaggerated, but many people are indeed not easy." ”

Xia Min continued to knock on the side: "So your identities are very mysterious, right, you are the kind of hidden master who will only go out of the mountain at a critical moment?" ”

"Also... Not counting... In short, each member has their own story, we are not independent, many people have their own lives, which is just an extra layer of identity and a mission for us. ”

It seems that he feels that he has said too much, and after a long time, the man in the mask finally felt that something was wrong, he frowned and urged Xia Min: "You still can't sleep?" ”

"Sleep, sleep, last question, what's your name?"

The man in the mask hesitated for a moment, and finally spit out two words: "Qiuyi." ”

Xia Min saw that Qiu Yi didn't want to talk much anymore, so he decided to sleep honestly.

One thing to say, Xia Min has not talked to someone like this for a long time, although he was a little wary at first, but when it really ended, he felt a little lost and lost in his heart.

Maybe that's the man.

When Xia Min woke up again, it was the third time the alarm clock rang.

"I'm hanging Nima, I'm still twenty minutes late, and the cuckold brother is going to beep me again about the story of his divorce from his wife because he didn't water the flowers on time!"

When Xia Min got up, he almost fell because he was in too much of a hurry, and his hand inadvertently propped himself up on the stool that Qiu Yi had sat on last night, he paused, suspecting that Qiu Yi hadn't left yet, so he pretended to be a little strange and spoke.

"Strange, I put this stool here when I went to bed yesterday?"

Xia Min looked a little confused and moved the stool away, and a figure disappeared gently from the balcony outside the window.

By the time Xia Min arrived at the funeral home, it had already been half an hour past the working time, and the director of the green hat had already waited for Xia Min on the way through.

"Coming?"

"Here we are."

"It's early."

"Young people should come early."

“… You think I'm complimenting you? ”

"What do you mean?"

“… Ma Yu let me go to work, the young man didn't know the importance of punctuality at all, if I had watered the flower a minute earlier, would Ah Xiang have gone with that man? I said you're too..."

Xia Min rolled his eyes at the director's back, and at the same time sighed a little, if he didn't really like it, who would want to be a licking dog?

When I walked into my room, my client was already lying on the workbench and waiting.

Xia Min bowed: "I'm sorry to keep you waiting, if you are not satisfied, please point it out."

Oh? You said it doesn't matter, thank you for your understanding, the only dissatisfaction is that the director in charge of reception is a lewd uncle?

Oh, I'm really embarrassed, I also want to replace him, but I can't help it, let you be wronged, so what are you going to do today? ”

After arranging the director of the green hat, Xia Min picked up the report next to the workbench and looked at the information on the table word by word:

"Car accidents... Hit the wall... Squeezed into the co-pilot's space of ten centimeters... The corpse is completely deformed, and the family hopes to be decent..."

Xia Min uncovered the white cloth on the corpse and sighed, life, a girl in her twenties, what a pity.

The head of the corpse is like a deflated ball, the hands and feet are unnaturally twisted, and the skin is also unnaturally purple-black.

"If you become a spirit, will it be an evil spirit?"

I don't know why, Xia Min muttered to himself, but he got out of that state in a blink of an eye, clapped his hands, and was full of energy: "Is the whole body beautiful, it's okay, if you are satisfied with the service, please give a five-star praise, if you want to come again, you can contact our director, who is the one who was in charge of receiving you just now, thank you for choosing our company!" ”

It was already evening when Xia Min was about to walk out of the somewhat cold room, and the girl's body was finally almost recovered.

In fact, the groomer also needs medical skills, especially surgical things, after all, assembling toys is much more troublesome than disassembling them.

In the same way, trying to restore a broken body is much more troublesome than simply dissecting it.

Filling, patching, fixing, washing, makeup.

All the processes are done in the whole body, and the difficulty is no less than that of a delicate and complex operation, not to mention that the whole process is only completed by Xia Min alone.

Stretching his waist, Xia Min shook his somewhat tired head and waved his hand at the corpse: "In the next life, I hope you can live longer." ”

After speaking, he tightened the coat on his body, shrunk his shoulders and walked out: "Yesterday, the cerebral palsy had to watch me sleep, I was embarrassed to take off my clothes, it must have been so hot in the middle of the night that I kicked the quilt and now I have a cold, I'll go, it's so cold..."

The director greeted Xia Min an hour ago, and he had already left first, and now the technicians in the funeral home have basically left work, and only the service staff and the chef in charge of receiving customers are still working.

Looking at the people in the lobby who wore linen and filial piety but talked and laughed on the mahjong table, and the spiritual position and posthumous photos who stayed alone in the corner, presumably the deceased was also lonely before he died, right?

Xia Min smiled a little relieved: "From this point of view, there is not much difference between those of you who have family and those who don't have family." ”

Xia Min went to put incense in front of the posthumous photo without anyone noticing, and then walked out with his hands in his pockets and swaying.

"Today's service is also a full score, you can reward yourself with a game down the road Yasuo, well... It has to be ranked. ”

Sitting in the taxi home, Xia Min thought to herself.

The funeral parlor is also in the suburbs, but one with Xia Min's family is in the west of the city, and the other is in the south of the city.

Xia Min passes by this city every day, and he often thinks that the place where he lives is about to become like this, but he really doesn't want to leave, after all, it is the last memory left to him by his mother and grandmother.

Although no one lives in this urban area due to water and electricity cuts, there are still street lights due to the road, otherwise you may not even dare to take a taxi from here, after all, the older generation often say that this kind of old town is the most prone to some evil things.

Thinking that he would be able to get home soon, order a takeout and drink happy water and play games, Xia Min was excited, just like an old man who had been married for many years and fell in love with a forest for the first time.

But suddenly, the driver slowly stopped the car.

"What's wrong, out of gas?" Xia Min was a little strange, and leaned his head to the driver's side to look at the dashboard, "Can't you, isn't this dissatisfied?" ”

"It's not..."The driver's voice was a little nervous at this time: "What do you see in front of that?" ”

Xia Min looked up through the windshield, there was an intersection in front of him, the traffic lights kept changing strangely, as if they were out of order, and under the flickering street lights, in the middle of the road, a long-haired woman in red clothes stood quietly.

Occasionally, a cool breeze blew, blowing some gaps in the woman's hair, which covered her face, revealing her skin that was not quite normal.

There was also a pile of flickering flames on the side of the road, which seemed to be burning a pile of paper money, and there was no one near the fire, but there was a faint cry.

Xia Min's eyes narrowed slightly, the corners of his mouth hooked a little arc, he pressed the driver's shoulder, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here." ”

After speaking, under the driver's unknown gaze, he stuck his head out of the back window and shouted: "Our car has a dash cam, don't work with me!" ”

"It's not..."The driver was a little speechless after hearing Xia Min's shout, but he still said cautiously: "I think this... It's not like touching porcelain. ”

Xia Min retracted his head, looked at the woman who did not react in the slightest, and looked at the driver solemnly.

"I can't... Could it be, soliciting customers? ”
