Chapter 9: An Inexplicable Knock on the Door
But the good times didn't last long, and after I licked my face and chatted happily with Sister Liu for many hours, Sister Liu was finally going to get off work.
I looked at the time, it was ten o'clock in the evening, and tomorrow's morning shift Uncle Quan would not come back until eight o'clock at the earliest, as soon as Sister Liu left, I was bound to stay in this crematorium for nearly ten hours alone.
When I thought of this, my heart suddenly chuckled, and the whole person felt like a thief ship; No wonder it is said that the salary in the crematorium will be high, no wonder it is said that there will be so few employees here, and it is so cheating that it turns out to be such a cheat!
Sister Liu looked at me, a pair of beautiful eyes swept me around, and before she left, she pretended to say to me mysteriously: "Silly brother, don't be too nervous about going to night shift for the first time, you will go and close the door and find a place to sleep at eleven o'clock." ”
"Well, thank you Sister Liu for reminding me, alas, I'm afraid that I won't be able to sleep and scare myself enough!" I frowned and said truthfully.
"Giggles, you're scared too?" Sister Liu winked at me, I looked at such a charming woman in front of me, if she hadn't told me that she had already given birth, I really didn't believe that Sister Liu was about to turn thirty.
I saw Sister Liu pause, and then said again: "Silly brother, don't say that my sister didn't take care of you, remember, when you work the night shift, don't go to the back row of small rooms; If you hear something in the middle of the night, don't be afraid, just yell. ”
"Huh? Will there be a sound in the middle of the night?" Now I'm completely blindfolded, this crematorium is gone, how can there be a sound in the middle of the night?
But when I thought about it again, I couldn't help but play a clever ......
"Okay, silly brother, my sister is gone, don't worry about my sister." Sister Liu winked at me mischievously, and soon walked out of the dressing room.
Seeing this, I hurriedly walked out with her, thinking that by the way, I would close the door of the crematorium, and then go on a random patrol to find a place to sleep decisively.
In the dark night, there was an old yellow lamp at the door of the crematorium that I don't know what age it was produced, and under the dim light, I saw Sister Liu's figure slowly disappearing into the night......
I made up my mind, fortunately, Sister Liu's home is not far from the crematorium, otherwise, it is estimated that she would not dare to go home alone at this point in time.
As soon as Sister Liu left, I quickly closed the iron door of the crematorium, and then returned to the dressing room to take out a flashlight, thinking that it would be done with a casual patrol.
And just a few minutes after I was patrolling with a flashlight, there was a sudden knock on the iron door that I had closed!
In the silence of the night, the sudden knock on the door scared me enough, and my heart felt like I had fallen straight into an ice cellar!
My face turned pale instantly, and even my eyes were a little afraid to look at the iron gate!
"Silly brother, open the door, it's my sister and me."
At this time, a familiar voice came from outside the iron gate, and as soon as I heard it, I quickly breathed a sigh of relief!
It turned out to be Sister Liu,, this is too scary!
I quickly ran over and opened the iron door, only to see Sister Liu looking at me with a resentful face, and said, "Sister forgot to take something, and just wanted to come back to get it, the door was locked by you." ”
Hearing Sister Liu's words, I unconsciously touched my head and chuckled awkwardly.
Sister Liu winked at me, then went back to the dressing room and picked up a bag containing clothes, and then said goodbye to me again: "Silly brother, my sister is really going home now." ”
"Well, goodbye, Sister Liu." I looked at Sister Liu's somewhat playful smile, and I wanted to say that Sister Liu, if you don't want to accompany me anymore, I am really panicked to keep this night shift alone.
But the dignity of a man still needs to be done, under Sister Liu's playful smile, I still gritted my teeth and firmly said that I was fine, wasn't it just a night shift? Mere trifle!!
Sister Liu left with confidence, and when I saw that Sister Liu's figure was gone, I quickly closed the iron door again, and my heart seemed to be 10,000 grass and mud horses galloping by.
As soon as the iron gate was closed, I grabbed my flashlight again and hurriedly patrolled the crematorium, there are not many buildings on this side of the crematorium, which is basically divided into two parts, the front is a condolence hall and a place for family members to rest, and the back is the main component of the crematorium; Including incineration and powder rooms, plus a small warehouse and small office......
Of course, apart from the small warehouse, which still sells some memorial supplies, there are hardly any other places of value; The two large stoves in the incineration room, all kinds of cheap cosmetics in the dressing room, these things are too lazy to ask for not to mention thieves, even three-year-old children.
After patrolling the inside of the crematorium, I came to the outside of the crematorium, there are men's and women's toilets built outside the crematorium, which I naturally didn't bother to go in to patrol, and behind the other side, there is a row of small black houses.
I fixed my eyes and found that the design of this row of small black houses was also a bit strange, it was completely a row of small black houses, and the inside was even darker; On the first day I came, I thought it was a resting place for the staff of the crematorium, but when I asked Uncle Quan what it was for, Uncle Quan chuckled at me a few times, saying that I wanted to know what was inside, and I would be able to see it clearly......
And just now, Sister Liu told me that when I was patrolling, try not to get close to the small black house behind the crematorium; I don't know what's in this little dark room, but I know in my heart that Sister Liu shouldn't hurt me, she told me not to get close, and if I don't get close, I'll have it.
After a hasty patrol, I looked at the sparsely lit interior of the crematorium, and I felt a little uneasy......
However, just as I was about to step into the dressing room to go to sleep, suddenly there was a weak knock on the door behind me.
The door of the crematorium is an iron door, and when the iron door is knocked, the sound is naturally very clear and audible; But this weak voice sounded, and I was stunned for a moment, and thought to myself: Could it be that Sister Liu didn't worry about me and ran back again?
I hurriedly looked back at the iron gate, but in the dim yellow light, I didn't see any figure.
I couldn't help frowning, the knock on the door just now was very faint, maybe it was not necessarily the wind? This winter is coming, and the night breeze is naturally a little strong......
I shook my head, and was about to lift my leg again and go inside; But before my footsteps fell, there was another knock at the iron door behind me; And this time, the voice is obviously much louder than just now!
I looked back without hesitation, but I still saw that there was no figure outside the iron gate!!
At this moment, my heart instantly became furious, and my back spine was even more cold!
What the hell is going on? Why is there a knock on the door when no one is there?
"Dang!"
The knock sounded again, and I could no longer hold back the astonishment in my heart, and I turned back and walked tremblingly towards the iron door, but my legs were as heavy as lead!
"Who is it?" I shouted weakly to the iron door, but there was no response outside the empty black paint door......
"Who's out there?" I yelled again, then approached the iron gate and looked up!
However, outside the iron gate, under the dim yellow light, not to mention people, not even a shadow was seen......
The knocking had stopped, and I stood by the iron door, feeling a pang in my heart; Uncle Quan once told me that as long as the iron gate of the crematorium is closed, no matter what he is, he will not be able to enter; But this inexplicable knock on the door made me sweat a little.
I quickly turned to leave, thinking that I would ask Uncle Quan again tomorrow what the knock on the door was, and why it still rang from time to time......
And just a few seconds later, before I had gone far, a faint woman's voice sounded at the iron door where there was a knock.
"Excuse me, have you seen my sister?"
The woman's voice was very good, and I looked back unexpectedly, only to see that outside the iron gate, there was already a young woman in a long white dress......
