Chapter 22 022. Mirror
Before Qiao Mu got up, he sent a WeChat message to Zhou Mingke, briefly saying that he was going to spend the night at the funeral parlor. However, Zhou Mingke only replied to ask Qiao Mu to pay attention to it and did not give him any more information.

He also picked up a flashlight, turned it on, and found that it was a little dark. He shook it and it seemed that the brightness had become stronger.

"What is said in the game is indeed true."

Qiao Mu followed Chen Qixing to the corridor.

"What do you usually watch on patrol?"

He remembered the funeral home rules at the front desk, which said you couldn't go to the morgue when you were alone.

"Go around every room, there's usually nothing going on here."

Chen Qixing said, and opened the door of the room next to the security room.

This is the office. The room is not big. It is dark with the curtains drawn. The light of the flashlight can shine on the cabinets, tables, chairs, computers, etc. that hold the files.

Closing the office door, he walked to the next room.

Qiao Mu took a look at the sign on the door, it was a dressing room.

Some people who died miserably need to put on makeup before they are buried, and this room is used for this.

The light of the flashlight turned on, and Qiao Mu saw a face looking at him.

The face was bloodless, the eyes were lifeless, and there was not a hair on it.

It was a bust of a mannequin doll.

"Fuck, who is so wicked? Why would he put this thing like this without scaring anyone to death?"

Chen Qixing cursed, then walked in, moved the bust to the ground, and covered it with a piece of plastic sheet.

The flashlight in Qiao Mu's hand illuminated Chen Qixing and the room, and he saw a table covered with white cloth, and next to it were cabinets containing cosmetics and various repair tools.

After Chen Qixing finished, the two locked the door and returned to the corridor.

They passed by the empty mourning hall again, where the farewell ceremony for the body was usually held.

Behind the mourning hall is the incineration chamber.

The night was quiet, but Qiao Mu kept hearing a buzzing sound, like a gas stove that was not turned off.

Chen Qixing opened the door of the incineration room. There was a burning smell inside, mixed with a greasy smell. The dull air made people subconsciously hold their breath, making them feel even more suffocated.

Naturally, the incinerator inside was not opened.

However, Qiao Mu could hear the clearer sound of fire coming from the incinerators.

[Don't worry, the heat is perfectly controlled here, and you will never taste overcooked food! 】

The blood-red text appeared in front of Qiao Mu's eyes.

"The stoves are turned off here?"

Qiao Mu asked.

"Of course, it's dangerous to keep burning."

Chen Qixing asked strangely. He moved his nose slightly and sniffed the air in the burning room, but found nothing unusual.

Qiao Mu's flashlight shone on one of the incinerators, but he could clearly see that orange-red flames were shining through the gaps in the furnace. It seemed that something was struggling, and the shadow trembled, dyeing the entire incineration room with a haze. Layer crazy colors.

"really."

Qiao Mu exited the incineration room.

Obviously, as an ordinary person, Chen Qixing didn't have enough depth to see these weird scenes.

"I'm going to the toilet."

When he came to the toilet door, Chen Qixing said something.

"Then I'll be there too."

Qiao Mu followed.

This is an old-fashioned public restroom. Facing the corridor is a sink and a large mirror. The women's restroom is on the left and the men's restroom is on the right.

The lights in the corridor were very dim, and the mirror was also blurred, as if there was a layer of mist.

The light cast the shadows of the two people on the mirror. There were only two dark shadows, and the facial features and appearance could not be seen clearly.

is two.

Qiao Mu confirmed.

Chen Qixing washed his hands first before walking into the toilet behind Qiao Mu.

The toilet was also very dark, and the light had not been repaired for a long time. It was dimly lit, as if it would go out at any time.

Qiao Mu found a nearby urinal, pulled down the zipper, and heard footsteps from the next door, and Chen Qixing approached the urinal.

For a while, there was silence in the toilet.

I understand everything, some people just can't pee when someone is around, Qiao Mu waited for a while, and found that Chen Qixing next door was silent.

"Should the two of us stop torturing each other? Some people look at me and I can't get it out."

Qiao Mu couldn't help but say something.

"Who's watching you?"

Chen Qixing's voice suddenly came from behind Qiao Mu.

Qiao Mu was stunned.

From the corner of his eye, he did catch a glimpse of a person standing in front of the urinal next to his.

The man was dressed in pitch black, like a cloud.

Qiao Mu immediately turned his head.

But the urinal next to him was empty.

Chen Qixing walked behind Qiao Mu.

"Hurry up, I'll wait for you outside."

The light of the flashlight swept behind Qiao Mu, and his footsteps left the toilet.

Qiao Mu used the dim light to confirm again.

Nothing at all.

He quickly finished using the toilet and turned around to glance at the stalls.

Almost all the doors of the slightly old compartments were open, only the one near the window was ajar.

Qiao Mu turned around and left the toilet.

However, at the moment when his eyes turned, he seemed to see a pale hand suddenly withdrawn from the gap in the door.

"Remember to close the door when you use the toilet."

He muttered and walked outside the toilet.

Turning on the faucet of the sink, Qiao Mu let the cold water wash over his hands. Chen Qixing waited behind him, and the flashlight illuminated the corridor.

With some water on her hand, Qiao Mu raised her head.

There were only two black shadows in the blurry mirror.

Qiao Mu couldn't help but wipe it with his hand.

The moist and sticky mist was stroked away by Qiao Mu's palm, and a face was reflected in the smooth mirror.

It was pitch black, with only two pale eyes without pupils staring at Qiao Mu.

[Hey, be careful with this guy, it’s ready to pull you in at any time, turning a blind eye is the best way to deal with it! 】

Qiao Mu glanced at Chen Qixing in the glasses, it was quite normal.

The black shadow disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only Qiao Mu's slightly malnourished face.

"Back to Nantian, it's too humid."

Chen Qixing complained.

"Does the morgue still need to be checked?"

Qiao Mu shook his hand, picked up the flashlight placed by the edge of the pool, and asked.

According to the rules of the funeral home, one cannot enter the morgue when alone, but now that there are two of them, Qiao Mu doesn't know if the rules still need to be followed.

"Yes, of course."

Chen Qixing said matter-of-factly.

He carried a flashlight to the morgue they had been to before.

Since I have been here once before, I am very familiar with it this time.

Under the cool-toned energy-saving lamps, the freezers stand quietly in place like solemn and solemn guards.

Qiao Mu followed Chen Qixing and scanned the gaps in the freezers one by one.

Soon, they arrived in front of No. [-] freezer.

Chen Qixing's flashlight swept around, illuminating the gaps between the blocked freezers. They were empty.

He moves on.

Qiao Mu glanced casually.

He saw a woman in a red dress standing there.

The woman's hair covered most of her face, and she could only vaguely see her pale skin and overly bright red lips.

The red dress exposed her arms and calves. Qiao Mu saw that it was densely covered with various scratches, which made Qiao Mu feel familiar.

Qiao Mu looked at each other's eyes covered by black hair for a moment.

Ding-dong-

Suddenly, Qiao Mu's phone vibrated. He looked down and found several messages from the netizen.

[Flower of Dark Clouds]: Doctor, I just remembered something.

[The Flower of Dark Clouds]: I was thinking, could my illness be related to work?
[Psychiatrist Qiao Mu]: What is your job?
Qiao Mu typed immediately.

After a while, the other party replied.

[Flower of Dark Clouds]: I work in a funeral home and often keep vigils.

Qiao Mu looked up suddenly when he saw these words.

He saw that, four or five steps away from him, Chen Qixing had reached the end of the aisle in the morgue and was turning around. The light from the flashlight made it difficult for Qiao Mu to see the people behind him.

"what happened?"

Chen Qixing's voice seemed to become a little distant.

Qiao Mu slightly blocked the light of the flashlight with his hand. He saw Chen Qixing approaching and put down the flashlight.

Just as Qiao Mu was about to speak, he realized that Chen Qixing's eyes were not on him.

The night watchman's eyes were on the empty freezer next to Qiao Mu.

At this moment, the woman in red was standing there.

Only one thought came to Qiao Mu's mind.

—he could see it.
