Chapter 13: Two Dead
"What's the matter?" I was a little nervous when I heard my grandfather say it was tricky.
Grandpa frowned and said in a deep voice, "There are dead people in the village." ”
I was stunned for a moment, "Who died?" ”
My grandfather said that when he returned to the village in the morning, there was a commotion in the village, and when he asked, he learned that two people had died.
These two people are the daughters of the Liu family and the village chief's family, and they all have their hearts gouged out in the same death.
The body was found by villagers who had gone to the hill behind the village this morning to cut firewood, not far from the grave of the man's body.
The police have been called, and a forensic doctor has come to perform an autopsy, and the time of death is not far from the time when the male corpse left our store.
I was shocked and asked, "Grandpa, did it happen to a male corpse?" ”
"Hard to say!" Grandpa couldn't be sure, after all, it was too much of a coincidence.
He resealed the sarcophagus and hurried back to the town, where he heard the news of Wang Laowang's violent death.
Because the murderer may be a male corpse, I am so scared that I can't help but wonder, will he kill me like that?
My grandfather was very busy today, and he went out again after dinner, leaving me alone in the store.
I was terrified and wished that the winter break would be over so I could go back to school.
There are so many people in the school, the male corpse probably won't look for me, otherwise, the neighbor found me hanging upside down in the window last night, and he wouldn't have left.
Recently, the business in the store has been a little deserted, so I have to tie some paper figurines so as not to be idle and cranky.
Grandpa came back very late, and the red-robed earth ghost had already been transformed by him.
Within a few days, before the case was solved, the bodies of the two women in the village were brought back by their families.
This is not surprising, those policemen in the bureau, when they encounter difficult cases, are perfunctory, and they just go through the process and let people take the body away.
The village police are just reporting to the police station, and they don't expect the police to find out the real culprit.
In the morning, the Liu family and the village chief's family came to ask their grandfather to help with the funeral.
The store handles all funeral items, and if necessary, you can also help the deceased with makeup.
My grandfather happened to be going to a neighboring town on an errand, so he asked me to go back to the village today and put on the makeup of the two deceased women first, and he would rush back tomorrow.
I've helped with makeup before, so it's hard for me, but I'm afraid.
What if the male corpse suddenly breaks the seal under my grandfather and comes to me?
Fortunately, my grandfather promised to come back as soon as possible and left me a few more talismans.
******
I went to the village chief's house first, his family is very powerful, and in normal times, he will definitely not let me, an 'ominous person', enter the door, and today he is very polite to me.
My grandfather had explained in advance that they knew that I was here to put on makeup first, so they didn't ask too much.
The village chief pointed to the corner room and said, "In the inside, you can go in by yourself." ”
"Have you taken a bath? Are you ready for the old clothes? I asked.
When the deceased dies, the dirt of the world must be washed off and then put on old clothes, that is, burial clothes.
The village chief's mother-in-law said, "It's washed, and the old clothes are ready." ”
"One of you comes in and helps put on old clothes." I said.
It is very particular about wearing old clothes, and it is generally necessary to put them on with the help of the deceased's close relatives under the guidance of the funeral director.
didn't expect the family to push three or four, and none of them were willing, even the village chief's mother-in-law.
My relatives died, and I refused to help put on old clothes, I was a little angry, "I've washed all the baths, what about helping to put on old clothes?" ”
The village chief's eldest daughter muttered, "We didn't take a bath." ”
"Shut up!" The village chief scolded her and asked his mother-in-law to follow me into the house.
When I saw the corpse on the kang, I was furious.
I turned to the village chief's mother-in-law and asked, "Why can you do this?" ”
