Chapter 156: Is It Okay?
Hearing this, Pei Yao looked at Chu Wenzhong, his eyes showing thought.
Last time, she asked Rong Li to investigate this competition, and she didn't find out anything, but his attentive attitude made her suspicious.
"I refuse, I won't participate."
"You think about it again, the competition is still half a month away, we really need you, and didn't you just finish filming a documentary, you can promote it together when the time comes, and you will become an Internet celebrity."
"I don't have any interest in becoming an Internet celebrity, not to mention, I still need to keep my hands for two months, and the answer I give you today is still no, so you'd better not come to me again, and I'll really call the police if I do it again."
When the words fell, Pei Yao looked at the two apprentices standing at the door.
"Lin Lin, Xiao Yuan, send off."
Chu Wenzhong was carried away by the two of them, and took the person to the door Lin Lin and Xiao Yuan returned to the funeral home, and after getting in the car, he looked at the people sitting in the back seat.
"Pei Yao hasn't agreed yet."
"Then continue to lure, if it is really as you said, there is a force behind her that we can't investigate, then she must participate in this competition."
"I understand, don't worry."
The car drove away from the funeral home, and Pei Yao walked out of the door, she looked at the back of the car, and her eyes were full of thought.
There must be a reason why Chu Wenzhong is so persistent, but they haven't found it yet, so why did he definitely let himself participate in that mortuary competition?
After standing at the door for a while, Pei Jiao went back, since he couldn't guess here, he didn't think about it, and went back to work hard first.
A few days later, the funeral home delivered a body.
The body was a seventeen-year-old boy with many bruises and purple scars, which at first glance showed to be left behind by his life.
He was accompanied by his parents, who, though they were crying, were full of dissatisfaction with the dead boy.
Pei Yao watched the boy being pushed forward by Xiao Yuan, and he was about to go back, but he was suddenly stopped by the boy's mother.
"Girl, how much does cremation cost, we don't have any money, can we do it more easily?"
"You can go over there and ask, I'm the mortuary, and I'm not in charge of this."
Hearing the three words of the mortuary, the woman immediately shook off Pei Yao's hand, and the action was disgusting.
"Undertaker? Bad luck, bad luck. ”
She left here as she said this, Pei Jiao just glanced at it a few times and didn't say anything.
It's just that not long after she was at the funeral home, there was another noisy sound outside.
"Why is it so expensive? It costs more than 3,000 to be cremated when the child dies, why don't you grab it? Do you have a conscience to earn even the money of the dead? ”
Pei Yao looked through the window, and the child's mother was sitting there crying and making trouble, pointing at the staff in charge of their reception and scolding her.
"This lady, our pricing is set by the government, there is no situation where we overcharge, and we provide you with the cheapest."
"What's the cheapest? Why does cremation cost more than a thousand? Don't you think we don't know, just turn into a pile of dust, why is it so expensive? You still say you're not robbing money? My son is only seventeen years old, and he will take the college entrance examination next year, and he is about to soar, and I have put so much effort into him, and he is now saying that he will die if he dies, and it will cost so much money to die. ”
Hearing this, the entire office fell silent, and Pei Yao looked at the couple and then withdrew his gaze, hanging his head and not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, she glanced at Lin Lin, who was still looking outside.
"Where's the body of the boy you just delivered?"
"It's in the freezer, and it shouldn't be possible to be cremated for a while."
Hearing this, Pei Yao didn't speak, just walked out of the office.
Walking to the door of the freezer, she changed into overalls and walked in, she remembered that the boy had wounds on his exposed skin, and she didn't know what kind of persecution he had been subjected to before his death.
She looked closely, and there were many bruises on the boy's body, especially on his arms, which looked like he had been whipped from the whip.
After looking at it for a moment, Pei Jiao restored his body to its original state and returned to the office.
The noise outside gradually subsided, and Lin Lin also withdrew his gaze.
"Do you know where this body came from?"
"It seems to be the school, I just heard the deceased's mother say that he committed suicide at school, because the pressure of the college entrance examination is too great, too, how can such a pair of parents not be under pressure, hey master, I heard ......"
Before he finished speaking, Pei Yao's gaze looked over, and Lin Lin suddenly stopped.
"I won't say it, I won't say it."
But she only spoke lightly.
"Go on."
Hearing these three words, Lin Lin was stunned, but continued to speak in Pei Yao's gaze.
"I heard that the school he attends is Xiude Middle School, which is a very famous private school in our city, and the tuition fee is very expensive, but the students who go to this school are generally not very obedient and usually do not like to study, but it is amazing, as soon as they arrive at this school, everyone's grades have improved significantly, and they are more obedient than before, so this school is gradually becoming famous."
"Xiude Middle School, Suicide ......"
Pei Yao muttered these four words in his mouth, and he always felt a little strange in his heart, if it was suicide, there were obviously too many scars on his body.
"How is suicide determined? Did the police give it? ”
"Yes, he was alone in the dormitory when he found the deceased, and everyone was in class at that time, because he was short of teachers. ”
"Is that so?"
Pei Yao's eyes looked outside, and the couple was still standing there, as if they were dissatisfied with the price, and their faces were long.
She could tell a hint of sadness on their countenances, but only a hint of it.
When she retracted her gaze, she swept to the door, and she saw a boy in a school uniform standing in the doorway, looking at the mourning hall that was being arranged.
She stood up and walked to the door of the funeral home, the boy didn't notice her, and the boy didn't react until Pei Yao walked next to him.
"Are you his friend?"
Pei Yao's voice startled the boy, and he suddenly turned around and looked at her with a very unfriendly gaze.
"Who are you?"
"I'm the undertaker here."
Pei Yao's voice was rarely softer when dealing with strangers, because she could feel that the boy in front of her and the child who had passed away should be very good friends.
"What is an undertaker?"
"It's to put makeup on the deceased, clean him up, and let them leave clean."
When the words fell, Pei Yao saw that the boy was silent for a moment.
"Did they, his parents, let you do that?"
