As soon as the staff member surnamed Zhao shouted like this, everyone looked down and saw a bunch of keys lying on the ground not far from the door...

"Fuck..."The director's brows twisted into a pimple, "It's obviously out of here, what do you know where to put it, we've been restless enough in this hall lately, you kid actually returned the key, if you let the curator know, see if he doesn't kick you..."

"I, I really didn't... I saw it when I closed the door yesterday and there was no key here at all..."

"Okay, okay, don't be fake..."The director looked impatient, "Hurry up and get down to business..."

I looked at the key in the staff member's hand, and Yuxin and Yu Xin looked at each other... The staff didn't lie, we didn't see the key here when we came in last night, so where did the key come from now? … I glanced at the small door leading to the incineration workshop in the mourning hall, and said to myself, could it be that the key was dropped here when the male corpse returned last night? …

The 'white fat man' narrowed his eyes and looked contemptuous, "Whew... Look at you guys... It's not surprising that even a key can be dropped, and the cremation oven is broken..."

The director's face was full of embarrassment, "Alas... This, really... I'm so sorry..."

The 'white fat man' chuckled, pouted and shook his head. The director walked towards the small door with his head bowed, and we followed.

When he was approaching the door, the director suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at me and Yuxin, "Hey, I said, what are you two doing with you?" ”

"Just take a look." I replied.

"This incineration workshop, do you say you can see it by looking at it?" The director raised his hand irritably, "Don't make any more trouble, hurry up and get out, get out..."

"Isn't your incinerator broken?"

"What's wrong?" The director's voice widened.

"Oh, nothing," I said seriously, "I'll take a look, maybe... I can fix it. ”

"You?"

The director pushed his glasses up and stared at me.

"yes." I said, "I graduated from Lanxiang Technical School, a technical engineer, can repair all kinds of equipment, although the incinerator has not been repaired, but it does not necessarily mean that it cannot be repaired..."

"Aren't you the one, paranormal researcher?"

"That's a halfway monk, I am an undergraduate at Lanxiang Technical School (I don't care if this makes sense)..."

"Director, it's okay to let him take a look, maybe he really knows how to cultivate?" The staff member whispered.

The director had seen me cast spells before, and he didn't dare to underestimate me, so he nodded hesitantly.

Yuxin secretly twisted me, her eyes widened, and she bared her teeth at me, and I stuck my tongue out at her.

Even though it was daytime, the incineration room was still eerie, and the air was filled with a sullen, unpleasant smell. The 'white fat man' covered his nose as soon as he came in, and his two eyes, which were not big, were so narrow that they were almost invisible, like two marks that someone had used his fingernails to pick out on his face like white steamed buns.

"Hey, where are you going? The director said.

I ignored him, went straight to the paper coffin in the corner of the incineration workshop, stretched out my hand and lifted the lid, and when I looked inside, my heart was cold... We were right, the corpse did come back, and at this moment, this male corpse... To be precise, this old man is lying motionless in this paper coffin. It was too dark last night, I didn't see it too clearly, but at this moment, I looked carefully under the light of the incineration workshop, and I saw that although this person was wearing a lot of makeup on his face, he could still vaguely see the aging skin and wrinkles on his face, so it is estimated that his age is at least sixty-five years old...

"What did I say you did?" The director patted me on the arm, "Aren't you here to fix the furnace?" ”

"Huh? Don't rush yet. ”

"You..."

"Ah, I said." The 'white fat man' spoke, covered his nose, and said, "Hurry up, no matter what method you use, in short, I will see the ashes when I come in the afternoon." ”

"Good, good..."

"Damn, it stinks..."

The 'fat white man' fanned the wind with his hand to his nose and muttered as he walked outside.

"I said, what the hell are you going to do?" After the man walked out, the director asked angrily.

"Don't do it." I said lightly.

"Hurry up, hurry up, or I'll call the police..."

"Let me ask you, when did this man come to your funeral home?" I pointed to the paper coffin.

The director was stunned, "Why are you asking this?" ”

"I ask you when."

"He..."The director was suppressed by my momentum, "Xiao Zhao, when did you pull it?" ”

"Almost—" the staff member snapped his fingers, "more than a week ago..."

A week ago... I felt a 'chuckle' in my heart.

"Let me ask you again, after this person is pulled over, is he parked in the same morgue as that Li Juanjuan?"

"Li Juanjuan? … yes, yes, what's wrong? ”

"Borrow a step to speak."

I picked up the director and walked out.

"I said you..."

All the way outside, I let go of my hand and said, "I've found out the truth about the haunting of your funeral home." ”

"You... What did you say? ”

I told you about what happened to me and Yuxin last night, and the director's eyes were straight when he listened.

"It's not Li Juanjuan who cheated the corpse at all, but the old man who parked in the morgue with her..."

I've always wondered why Li Juanjuan had been dead for a while, why didn't she cheat the corpse at the beginning, but suddenly started to cheat the corpse a week ago...

"Then if Li Juanjuan didn't cheat the corpse, then why did Uncle Zhang, who was keeping vigil, have her fingerprints on his neck?" The director asked.

I didn't understand this either, so I shook my head slowly. Previously, I speculated that it was the 'little monster' who controlled and drove Li Juanjuan to do it last night.

"How did this old man die?" I asked.

"Sudden death."

"Sudden death?"

"Hmm..."

The director said that that day, they received a call from the city hospital, saying that an old man had fainted on a bench in the scenic area, and the hospital's 120 cars rushed over and found that he had died, so they notified the funeral home and asked them to go over to collect the body...

"Scenic area?"

"yes, that's the one..."

It's that scenic spot again, and Li Juanjuan just ran there, and then had an accident when she went back.

"What does this old man do, you know?" I asked.

"I don't know the specifics, I should have some ability, those people who came one after another at the funeral yesterday seem to be quite rich..."

No matter how much it is, I can't ask anything.

"A-Leng, where are we going?" After leaving the funeral home, Yuxin asked.

"Grab a bite to eat and go to that landscape..."

When I came to the scenery, it was already noon. I slowed down and rustled along the road, looking out the window as I thought about my thoughts.

If the old man's death is also related to this place, could it be that he also went to 'somewhere' along the ramp like Li Juanjuan at the beginning? … Also, why did Xu Shi's first son, the 'monster' child, come here... I feel that this may be the case, that old man is the first to cheat the corpse, and the little monster is coming later...

It was the time to eat, and there was no one in this scene, and two cleaners were pushing the cart and collecting garbage.

When I finally came to the intersection of the ramp, I hit the steering wheel and drove up. When I reached the junction of the bluestone path that led to the 'mage's residence, I pulled over to the side of the road and walked up the path with Yuxin. It is the warm spring season, the woods on both sides of the road are fresh green, birds are singing, and the sun shines through the branches and leaves of the trees, mottled and mottled.

After discovering the mage's body, the police came to the mage's residence, which is the hut behind the forest, and cut the security door with a gas cut to enter, and found that it was empty and there was nothing. Yuxin and I walked around the front and back of the house and found nothing. Back on the road, I drove along the road for a while, but still found nothing, so I had to give up.

When I went back, it was almost dusk, and there were a lot of walkers, dogs, and old men practicing in the scenic area.

"Uncle, do I want to ask you something?" I pulled over and said to an old man.

"Huh?"

The old man, who seemed to have a bad ear, stretched his hand and took two steps closer.

"Ask you something."

"Oh, let's talk about it."

"A week ago, an uncle died suddenly on a chair in this area, you know?"

"Brute?"

"Sudden death is sudden death..."

The old man tilted his head and closed his eyes and thought for a while, "There is such a thing. ”

"Oh? Are you familiar with that uncle? ”

The old man shook his head, looked left and right, pointed to an old man who was practicing in the distance and said, "Go and ask him, he seems to know that person..."

"You're asking him?"

"Yes, come, uncle, smoke a cigarette."

"No, no, I don't smoke." The old man waved his hand.

"Do you know anything about the dead uncle?"

"Yes, hey," the old man shook his head and sighed, "He's bitter." ”

"Bitter?"

"Hmm."

"His family was originally in very average conditions, and his children were incompetent, and they were not very filial. Anyway, he has a pension and does not depend on them. He doesn't usually have any special hobbies, except for hanging around here, just buying that, lottery tickets. In addition to eating and drinking, the rest of his monthly pension is all lottery tickets. Ay? Who knows, the year before last, he bought a lottery ticket and won the jackpot, whether it was hundreds of millions or tens of millions, I don't remember, anyway, it was in the newspaper. From then on, his sons and daughters went to him every day. Although he took out a part of the money and gave it to them, the big head was still in his own hands. One day last year, all of his money was suddenly gone..."

"Run out? So much money, all at once? I asked, surprised.

"yes, no one knows where he's spending his money. Until the day before he died, I asked him, "I said, where did all your money go?" He couldn't help but be worn by me, and smiled mysteriously at me and said, I bought something that I couldn't buy with any amount of money. I asked him, what? He patted me on the shoulder and said, old man, take good care of your body, I hope that in a few decades, we can still sit together like this..."
