Chapter 9 Looking Back
"I killed him." As soon as he got into the police car driven by Yang Zi and them, Zhao Xiaoyu said calmly: "I hate him, he ruined everything for me." ”
With Zhao Xiaoyu's narration, the context of the corpse case in Christmas Eve Square was completely and clearly presented in Yang Zi's mind.
Because her parents died unexpectedly when she was 10 years old, Zhao Xiaoyu has always grown up in a welfare home, relying on the care of the welfare home and the help of some well-wishers in the society, she barely finished high school.
In order to be able to support herself as soon as possible, despite her good academic performance, she still gave up her desire to enter the university, and chose to study in a technical secondary school.
After graduating from secondary school, Zhao Xiaoyu was assigned to work in a factory, thinking that she could finally settle down, but fate seemed to like to play tricks on people, so she only went to work seriously for a few years, and the factory closed down because of poor management.
When her livelihood was already in question, she did not give up on herself, and while supporting herself by working part-time jobs, she participated in beauty training classes and wanted to master a skill to make ends meet.
After obtaining the qualification certificate of the beauty training class, Zhao Xiaoyu also went to work in a beauty salon, but she has always been honest and kind, because she was not used to the boss's fraud on customers, and was dismissed by the boss under various excuses.
Just when she was worried, the teacher of the welfare home knew that the S City Funeral Home was going to recruit a groomer, so he kindly helped her sign up.
With the encouragement and persuasion of the teacher, Zhao Xiaoyu overcame his psychological obstacles and fears and accepted the job.
Although she had to face all kinds of corpses every day in this job, Zhao Xiaoyu quickly adapted to it, and under her serious and responsible work attitude, every deceased person who had been processed by her hands had a serene and lifelike face when accepting the farewell of relatives and friends before her death.
The only regret is that she doesn't have many friends, because she is engaged in such a job, she knows that it is easy to be taboo, so even at the age of flowers, she has to go alone and close herself more and more.
At a memorial service, when the body of the deceased who died due to an accidental fall from the building was placed in an ice coffin and pushed into the sight of relatives and friends, everyone present was stunned, because what they saw was far from what they imagined to be horrible.
Although the atmosphere at the scene should have been somber and solemn, there were also a small number of curious people who began to discuss and ask questions in low voices.
Ling Yunyan, who also came to attend the memorial service at that time, happened to hear that it was Zhao Xiaoyu, a young girl who had just been hired to work as a groomer in the funeral home, who gave the deceased plastic surgery.
After deliberately approaching the ice coffin to carefully observe the deceased's remains, he had to be picky, he had to admire, the methods of the deceased arranger were indeed very delicate, and there were almost no traces of stitching on the deceased's face.
This made a flash of inspiration suddenly flash through his mind, which was struggling with the source of the corpse's organs......
After the memorial service, Ling Yunyan found Zhao Xiaoyu's appearance finishing studio without much difficulty.
Although he was thinking about how to meet and approach Zhao Xiaoyu all the way, when he really faced Zhao Xiaoyu, he found that Zhao Xiaoyu, who longed for friendship and longing for friends, was too easy to approach.
When he entered Zhao Xiaoyu's studio, she was putting on makeup for the deceased, Ling Yunyan stood on the side and watched for a while, and praised Zhao Xiaoyu's superb makeup skills, looking at her somewhat lonely expression, he didn't leave immediately.
Later, when she finished her work, the scheming Ling Yunyan only used one action to make Zhao Xiaoyu disarm the strange man.
He warmly shook Zhao Xiaoyu's hand, and then introduced himself to her.
The simple Zhao Xiaoyu didn't know what the man in front of him was doing, he just thought that he was a relative and friend of the deceased, and because he was moved by the work she did to the deceased, he came to thank her.
In her opinion, since he can not taboo her hands that move around on the face of the dead every day, and shake hands with her warmly, then this man must have noble sentiments and a broad mind.
Unlike some people in society, when they hear that she is engaged in this job, let alone shaking hands, they just hide far away when they see her walk by, for fear of being contaminated with her breath.
Therefore, when Ling Yunyan asked her for her mobile phone number, she subconsciously did not refuse, nor did she think too much about what his purpose was, so she casually told him.
originally thought that this was just a small episode, and forget it after that, so Zhao Xiaoyu didn't take it to heart, and still completed his work seriously.
When she received a call from Ling Yunyan a few days later, she almost couldn't remember who he was, and Zhao Xiaoyu was surprised when she heard that he was going to invite her to dinner.
But she is still very happy, at least someone is willing to know her, willing to be friends with her, for her who is about to close herself into autism, Ling Yunyan's appearance is like a spring breeze, blowing warm her cold heart.
In this way, the two gradually became familiar with each other, often having a meal together, chatting or something, although some colleagues in the funeral home secretly asked if she was in love, but Zhao Xiaoyu denied it with certainty.
After all, she knew her experience and identity, and she also knew that Ling Yunyan was not only a doctor in the hospital, but also a doctor who had stayed abroad and drank foreign ink.
In terms of her knowledge, Ling Yunyan and her are not of the same class, and they are almost very different.
So she has never fantasized about and hoped for love, but simply thinks that the two are just good friends.
She thought that Ling Yunyan just regarded her as a confidant and confidant, because in their contact, Ling Yunyan often told her about her experience, and often complained to her that she was treated unfairly, etc.
She sometimes felt that it was probably because Ling Yunyan, like her, had no friends in the local area, and it was inconvenient to tell others about these troublesome things at work, so she was so close to her, and she had a feeling of sympathy.
Usually Ling Yunyan also gave her some things, but she excused herself if it was too valuable, and only accepted some worthless bits and pieces.
It can be seen that Ling Yunyan appreciates her very much, and also respects her self-esteem, the two have been dating for two or three months, and the places where they take her to eat and drink tea are all mid-range places, and they have never been to high-end restaurants or coffee shops.
She was also very satisfied with this arrangement, firstly, the gentleman's friendship was as light as water, and secondly, Ling Yunyan paid the bill, and psychologically felt that she did not take advantage of him.
Until one time, Ling Yunyan learned that her parents left her a small house when they died, but she was always occupied by a distant relative and refused to return it, and she lived outside with someone else.
Ling Yunyan was very upset with her, so she found a relationship that she didn't know and helped her get the house back.
In order to thank him, after Zhao Xiaoyu moved back to his house, he specially cooked a table of meals for him. That day, because of happiness, both of them drank too much, and something happened that shouldn't have happened.
