Chapter 91. Case 14: Close to the truth

I was a little confused, not knowing what to do next, but after a few seconds, the corpse was still in this position, but its eyes were looking at me. Hu Zongren began to slowly walk behind me, walked behind me, and he said softly to me, you reach out and hold his hand.

I turned my head and glared at him and said, "It's easy for you to say, why don't you come by yourself?" So Hu Zongren suddenly pressed my left shoulder and pushed me to the side, and he himself stood in my position. I stood aside and looked at him, only to see his eyes looking at the corpse, and the corpse's eyes began to look at him, and the two of them looked at each other affectionately, one dead and one alive, and then Hu Zongren squeezed out a stiff, ugly and hypocritical smile, and then reached out to hold the corpse's hand.

The corpse's hand slowly drooped, as if it was much more relaxed, but there was still smoke coming in and out of his mouth and nose, I really envy him for having such a stunt, in this way, I don't have to go downstairs every day to buy cigarettes, one cigarette is enough for me to be cool for so long. I stood on the side of the two of them, and from my point of view, the posture of the two of them holding hands was very similar to the posters of those bloody Taiwanese idol dramas many years ago, except that it was usually a combination of handsome men and beautiful women, not Hu Zongren and a corpse. Hu Zongren's smile was still bright, but he probably didn't like the smoke in the corpse's mouth, so he pouted softly, then blew, and then returned to his original smile.

I asked Hu Zongren, and then, what do you mean by that? Hu Zongren looked at me with a smile on his face, and then puffed out his eyes and glared at the ground a few times, only to find out that he was talking about my compass on the ground, at first I was in a hurry to escape, I actually dropped it on the ground and didn't pick it up, so I immediately understood what Hu Zongren meant, bent down and picked up the compass, and said to him Xiao Luo, I'm sorry for you, I will never leave you again, and by the way, I observed the agility on the compass.

The agility is there, and it's still not weak, but compared with before, it seems to be much smoother. If at first it was like a fiery horse, now it looks like it has been tamed. So I said to Hu Zongren, now that the agility is quieter, you can ask some questions, I will help you keep an eye on the agility, and I will tell you if there is a fluctuation.

Hu Zongren nodded, thinking about what to ask. So soon the first question came up, he asked, do you not want to die, if so, be a little more intense. Isn't this nonsense, who wants to die! But the compass only moved slightly, which meant two things, the first was that the ghost of the corpse in front of us was willing to cooperate with us, and even knew that we were here to help him. The second meaning is that he didn't react very much to the question, because I guess since he was hospitalized with cancer, he knew that day would come sooner or later.

Hu Zongren would look at me every time he asked a question, and I would nod and shake my head to answer whether his question was to the point. Then Hu Zongren asked several questions in a row, and the compass didn't even respond, so I reminded Hu Zongren to ask from a different angle, and Hu Zongren asked, are you staying and refusing to leave because of your family and children?

The compass began to fluctuate quite largely, so I hurriedly told Hu Zongren and continued to ask along with this. Hu Zongren asked again, is it because he is reluctant to them? The compass doesn't react much. Hu Zongren asked again, is it because they are not good to you? The compass flicked for a moment, and it quickly calmed down. At this time, I suddenly thought of a situation that Political Commissar Liang told us before, saying that the deceased was not picked up by his family for unknown reasons, and that he had a family and children, but he put the body here for so many days, which is past the first seven days, is it too disrespectful to the deceased. So I walked up to Hu Zongren, although I didn't hold the hand of the corpse, but I began to ask questions, and after asking a few more questions in a row, I gradually sorted out the meaning that the ghost wanted to express into a relatively smooth sentence.

To put it simply, his wife and children did not feel much grief at his death, but did not come to pick up his body because some financial relationship was not agreed.

In this way, it seems to be a little simpler. Hu Zongren and I have nothing to do with the corpse in front of us, we are both willing to help out, but his own wife and children let him stay in this cold cabinet for so many days, which makes me and Hu Zongren, two people who have nothing to do with each other, a little angry, so I said to him, at this moment, I must give you an explanation, but it is still quite wrong for you to always come out to scare people, so please go back and lie quietly, we will give you an answer as soon as possible.

The compass's reaction told me that while this was probably not the ghost's most desirable idea, it was the best way to do it at the moment. So soon he closed his eyes and mouth, and collapsed to the ground, a person who had been dead and frozen for many days, his joints were still so soft, I must go home and tell Sister Cai, who practices yoga every day, to make her feel ashamed.

When the corpse falls, it becomes a real corpse, but the agility is still there, but it is not in the corpse. Since this ghost would not hurt me or Hu Zongren, we had nothing to fear, so we lifted him back to the freezer as if we were carrying potatoes, and then lifted the board along with the corpse, stuffed it back into the freezer, and then closed the door. When he was about to turn around and go out, Hu Zongren suddenly folded his hands and bowed to the freezer, saying that there is no doubt that there is a lot of offense or something like that, I understand what he means, because there is more than this corpse in that whole row of cabinets.

After seeing me and Hu Zongren go out, Zhao Jing's already big eyes opened wider in horror, and she couldn't wait to ask us, how is it, is it done? Probably she saw us coming out unscathed, and she should have been able to collect the money after it was done. Hu Zongren still ignored her, but said to Political Commissar Liang, Political Commissar Liang, please take us to the nurse's station in the thoracic surgery department to find the information of the deceased's family and check the account. Political Commissar Liang agreed and took us out, it is estimated that he has long wanted to leave. As I walked, I asked Hu Zongren, what do you want to do? He told me that you would know the truth when the time came.

After taking the elevator directly to the thoracic surgery department on the second floor, Political Commissar Liang took us to find the head nurse, and then quickly found out the information of the deceased and the phone number of the family. Only then did I know that the deceased's surname was Wu, 58 years old, not young, but he died at this age, it was still a little early. The cause of admission to the hospital is "lung mass", which is just a deception to patients, because most patients do not know the so-called mass, in fact, it is almost the same as cancer. After getting the phone number, we walked to the rest area outside the ward area, where there were many cinema-like chairs, and judging from the number of them, the admission rate of this department was quite impressive. Hu Zongren took his phone, entered one of the numbers, and then handed the phone to Zhao Jing and said, Didn't you always want to help just now? The call is given to you, and your chance to perform has arrived.

After Zhao Jing took the phone from Hu Zongren, she asked him very puzzled, do you want me to call? What should I say? Hu Zongren said that whatever you say, even if you lie, it's okay, but you must call me to the hospital with this person on the other end of the phone. Zhao Jing asked again, who is the owner of this number? Hu Zongren suddenly said angrily like a child, how do I know Lu Dao? Why do you ask me everything? Do I look like Baidu?

Zhao Jing looked at Hu Zongren angrily with the phone, but she didn't say anything, and after a while she sat down, probably organized the language, and pressed the dial button. Soon she said in a very feminine and very gentle voice, Hello, are you a family member of Wu Moumou? What is his relationship with the person?

Then, after a while, Zhao Jing said again, this is the case, there is a little problem with the mortuary equipment in our hospital, and the qualitative change of the corpse seems to be a bit serious, and now your father's body has a little bit that can not be put down, we need you to come to the hospital, how to deal with it, or the issue of compensation, we also need to communicate with you face-to-face. It seems that the other end of the phone is Lao Wu's child, and judging from the effect of Hu Zongren's inferior phone that can hear the other party's voice without turning on the speakerphone, the other party is a man, and that is Lao Wu's son. After a while, Zhao Jing said again, sir, don't get excited, we are also here to solve the problem, if you don't cooperate with our work, we can only hand over your father's body directly to the funeral home, their equipment is probably more backward than ours, so the deceased is big, how to say that it is also your father, I hope you come to visit, we will solve it in person.

Then Zhao Jing added that as for the issue of compensation, you can rest assured that you will not be at a loss. Then Zhao Jing politely said goodbye, and then hung up the phone. That's like those customer service ladies who are often teased by me.

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Jing suddenly threw the phone to Hu Zongren, and Hu Zongren almost failed to answer it. Zhao Jing said that this person was the son of the deceased, and he didn't tell me that he didn't want to pick up his father's body, but it sounded like this person was not in a good temper, and he said that he would go to the hospital in an hour, and call us again to ask for a place when he arrived. I asked Zhao Jing, then you said he was excited, what was the other party excited about? Zhao Jing said, if there is a problem with the corpses of your family members because of the storage relationship, can you not be excited? But I see that this kid and his father don't seem to have a deep relationship, if they really treat it as a family, they don't pick it up after dying for so long, what does it mean.

I didn't continue to ask, and for the next hour or so, we waited in my car on the second floor, during which Hu Zongren still didn't talk to Zhao Jing, and Zhao Jing didn't seem to please him anymore and ignored him. On the way, I asked Zhao Jing to call the son of Lao Wu again, saying that he should come directly to the second floor of the surgical building, and we would wait for him here.

More than an hour later, with the sound of a whistle turning in the garage, the lights shone in, and I saw a black Audi drive in. It's an SUV, the one I've always loved.
