Daughter-in-law

Chapter 257 Morgue

The old face was wrinkled like a piece of dry old bark.

Especially that face now pressed tightly against the window, and grinning at us with a mouthful of yellow teeth.

"Damn it!" Seeing that face, Duanmuqing immediately jumped up.

The two policemen immediately put their hands on their waists, as if they were about to draw their guns.

The funeral home worker who had been sitting in front of the computer let out a scream of fright, so he didn't pass out.

Even a person like me, who is used to seeing ghosts and ghosts, was taken aback by that old face.

This is not cowardice, this is a human instinct.

It's getting dark outside now, especially since we're still checking out that weird video, and no one can resist the sudden appearance of such an old face.

The old face saw us, smiled, and moved away from the window.

Only then did I see clearly that it was a hunchbacked old man wearing an old black suit and gesturing with his hands.

Seeing the old man outside the window, Jiang Zheng first breathed a sigh of relief, put down his hand, and then pulled up the staff member who was frightened under the table.

Looking at the old man outside, the staff member who almost peed his pants finally breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand to the window annoyedly, and said, "Uncle Liu, I have something to do today, I'll be leaving later!"

Hearing his words, the old man grinned again, then nodded, turned around and walked away with his back bent.

"Who is this person?" Looking at the old man's back, I couldn't help asking.

"Our gatekeeper, I don't know what his name is. We all call him Uncle Liu. He is a deaf-mute. He can't speak, but he can hear." The guy sat down on the chair again, wiped the sweat from his head and said .

Looking at the old man's back, I couldn't help squinting my eyes.

There was nothing unusual about this old man other than a little scary, he looked like an ordinary old man.

But for some reason, looking at this old man, I felt an indescribable awkwardness in my heart.

It was an indescribable feeling, especially the old man gave me a sense of familiarity.

"Is there any problem with that person?" I turned my head to look at Duanmuqing and asked him.

Duanmuqing shook his head, but did not speak.

Seeing him shaking his head, I didn't say anything else, Duanmuqing is a corpse keeper after all, if there is anything abnormal about the old man, he should be able to see it.

After all, the family of cadavers belongs to the same family, and ordinary cadavers can recognize their peers at a glance.

The old man left, we continued to check the video, and the remaining two videos happened last year and this year.

The situation is almost exactly the same as the previous video, with the corpses walking out of the room by themselves.

"What do you two think?"

After watching the surveillance video, Jiang Zheng handed me and Duanmuqing a cigarette each, and asked.

His attitude is very polite, it seems that Xu Yang must have said something about me in front of him.

After all, the police generally don't believe this kind of thing, but this weird thing happened on their own territory, and Jiang Zheng was helpless.

"I want to go to the morgue to have a look." Duanmuqing said taking a puff of cigarette.

I nodded, since the body came out of the morgue, maybe there was something weird there.

"Okay, Xiao Liu, take us to the morgue." Hearing Duanmuqing's words, Jiang Zheng said to the staff of the funeral home.

Who knew that Xiao Liu's face turned pale upon hearing his words, and he swallowed and said, "Captain Jiang, I really dare not go, you don't know, now we don't dare to work night shift at all, the big morgue I really dare not go at night!"

Hearing his words, Jiang Zheng frowned, a little unhappy, but he didn't get angry, because anyone would be afraid of such a thing.

Seeing Jiang Zheng's unsightly expression, Xiao Liu hurriedly said, "Don't be angry, I will ask Uncle Liu to take you there. He is on duty at night."

After he finished speaking, he picked up the phone on the table and dialed it.

"Uncle Liu, come here. The police are going to the morgue, so you can take it with you." Xiao Liu hung up the phone after finishing speaking.

Because that Uncle Liu is dumb and can't speak.

Not long after, the old man walked over again with a hunched body, stood at the door, holding a bunch of keys in his hand, and gestured to us.

"Captain Jiang, you just follow him." Looking at the old man at the door, Xiao Liu seemed to see a savior.

Jiang Zheng glanced at me, I nodded, and followed the old man out.

The funeral home in Liangcheng is relatively large, with the working area in the front and the morgue in the back.

The old man led us all the way to the back, and then came to a row of low houses, and took out the key to open the gatehouse door.

The door opened, and a cold breath rushed over, making people shiver uncontrollably.

Duanmuqing walked into the room, looked at the row of morgues, with a trace of excitement on his face, and took a deep breath.

He is a corpse breeder, so he has a natural sense of closeness to the breath of corpses, although he himself is disgusted by this feeling.

I squatted down, put my hands on the ground, and felt the breath around me.

Dead silence, the surroundings are dead silent, there is no aura left by the activities of ghosts at all, only the cold corpse aura of the dead.

All the corpses are parked in the cabinet. Of course, we will not open the cabinet to disturb their cleanliness, but just check to see if there is any abnormality here.

But obviously, neither I nor Duanmuqing found anything.

"Well, what did you find?" Xu Yang walked up to me and asked me.

I shook my head and didn't say anything.

The morgue was really quiet, nothing unusual.

"It seems that it was really done by a colleague, and he is a master." At this time, Duanmuqing came over and said to me.

"There are no living people in the morgue at night, just these corpses, so the guy who moved the corpses must have used a method outside. Being able to mobilize the corpses from such a long distance is considered a masterpiece among us cadavers." Senior."

After Duanmuqing finished speaking, I nodded. Since there is nothing to discover here, I can only leave first. After all, it is impossible for us to stay in the morgue overnight on this late night.

We went out and the old man closed the door.

I've been watching that old man, because I don't know why, I always feel that there is something wrong with him.

It was an indescribable feeling. There was nothing unusual about the old man's aura, but I just felt a familiar smell from him.

But I don't know where that familiar smell came from.

I looked at him, the old man closed the door, turned around, looked at me, and then grinned at me.
