I was so frightened by this face that I went into cardiac arrest, and I was about to shout subconsciously, and Jiang Xiaohan covered my mouth in time at the critical moment.

The girl's hands were much smaller than the boys', and the fingers were thin and long, tender and white, which instantly diverted my attention.

She buried her head in my arms, her body motionless because of nervousness, and her other hand, hiding under the quilt, was clutching the corner of my clothes tightly, I think she must be more scared than me.

My eyes were fixed on the woman's face above my head for a moment, because of the fire, her face was no longer visible, only the vague outline of her facial features.

At this time, I suddenly remembered that she was the girl who was reported on the news half a month ago! She was trapped in a rental house, burned alive by the fire, and when she was found, she was unrecognizable and could not be saved, along with her pet cat.

She was taken to the funeral home as soon as she died, but because her family could not be contacted, the body was not claimed for a long time, so she could only be refrigerated and stored in the morgue.

Seeing this scene in front of me, even if I firmly believe that there are no ghosts in this world, I can't help but be shaken.

Isn't she dead? Why do you show up in the mailroom in the middle of the night? Jiang Xiaohan and I didn't dare to breathe!

For some reason, she didn't seem to be able to see us, and stood at the head of the bed for a while before leaving, and I stuck my head out to look at her back, and saw the pet cat that was always following her, limping.

Funeral Home Staff Code 3: No one is allowed to keep pets in the funeral home, so any animals you see are fake.

I gradually began to understand these mindless employee rules, it turns out that each of them is a point, and it is the experience summed up by the previous employees!

When the footsteps faded away, I had the courage to turn on the lights in the mailroom again, and asked Jiang Xiaohan with palpitations: "What was that just now?" ”

Jiang Xiaohan was surprisingly calm, and his voice couldn't hear a trace of abnormality, "Didn't you see it all?" ”

"Is there really a ghost in this world?"

Jiang Xiaohan did not answer my question directly, and pointed to the big-character poster on the wall again: "Article 1 of the Employee Code." "I burst into flames.

"Jiang Xiaohan, who are you fooling! This bullshit employee code of conduct except for the first one that says that there are no ghosts in this world, and the last eight articles tell me that there are ghosts in this world! How else would you explain these words? ”

Article 2 of the Employee Code: When sharing the same room with the body, it is forbidden to talk to yourself, otherwise you will bear the consequences.

Article 4 of the Staff Code: It is forbidden to wear red clothes into the funeral home, and you must always dress uniformly for work.

Article 7 of the Staff Code: It is forbidden to enter the morgue to count unclaimed corpses without instructions from superiors.

Article 8 of the Staff Code: Do not look in the mirror in the funeral home after 12 p.m. until dawn.

Article 9 of the Staff Code: Do not spread ghost stories in the funeral home, and do not care about things outside the scope of your job duties.

Jiang Xiaohan didn't look at me, he lay down and covered the quilt again, still facing the wall with his back to me, and coldly dropped two words: "Sleep!" ”

After what happened just now, where can I still sleep? pestered Jiang Xiaohan to ask for an understanding, Jiang Xiaohan seemed to be annoyed by me.

"I don't care who recruited you, since you can't do it, then you will leave tomorrow, the funeral home does not need irresponsible employees like you."

I was choked by Jiang Xiaohan speechless, but if it weren't for the high salary here, who would want to come to the funeral home at a young age to keep vigil on the corpse!

I am an orphan, I started working everywhere after graduating from junior high school, I am just twenty-four this year, God seems to have played a big joke on me, I was diagnosed with kidney failure, and a dialysis cost tens of thousands of yuan.

I haven't enjoyed happiness yet, I haven't found a girlfriend, I don't want to die, I can only find a way to get out of the way.

I was very lucky, I met Master Zhao at breakfast, Lao Zhao is the funeral home manager, he introduced me to this job, I can give 800 yuan in one night, more than 20,000 yuan a month, enough for my treatment expenses.

So I can't go, even if there are ghosts in this world, it won't scare away me, a poor ghost! There is a glimmer of life if I stay, and if I lose this job, I will die immediately!

"Jiang Xiaohan, don't look down on me, Lao Zhao told me, he is very optimistic about me, I want to work here forever!"

Who knew that when Jiang Xiaohan heard the words "Lao Zhao", the whole person immediately bounced up from the bed, grabbed my collar and asked me: "Which Lao Zhao are you talking about?" ”

"It's Master Zhao who is the manager of the funeral home, he is responsible for my entry assessment, and the contract is also signed from him, eight hundred a night."

Jiang Xiaohan was so shocked that her pupils were frighteningly large and her breathing was short, and she told me: "There is only one person in the funeral home whose surname is Zhao, and that is the former night watchman, who died in the middle of the night due to a myocardial infarction a few days ago!" ”

My mind went blank and I couldn't believe it was real.

Because just yesterday, I was eating steamed buns with Lao Zhao at the breakfast stall, but Jiang Xiaohan told me that Lao Zhao had already died? Wrong! There's definitely something wrong with that!

I pretended to be calm and asked her with a smile: "Jiang Xiaohan, did you deliberately scare me?" I'll tell you, even if the two of us just hit the ghost, I'm not afraid of these things! You're just trying to squeeze me out and have this high-paying job to myself! ”

"Believe it or not?"

Jiang Xiaohan only left a back for me, and as soon as the light was turned off, the two of us were crammed back to back on a bed, and we would touch each other if we moved a little.

I couldn't sleep, so I decided to go to Lao Zhao tomorrow and ask him what was going on.
