Rent Affair

Chapter 252 Mysterious Occupation
I didn't dare to breathe, and there was only one word in my mind, "The visitor is not kind."

The slow person probably walked away, I want to take off the quilt, I want to secretly see who is that person?That's when I realized I couldn't move at all.

The weight on my body was getting heavier and heavier, like a weight of two hundred catties was pressing on me, and I couldn't move.

It's been a long time, and I can only move my fingers, holding my hand desperately, sweating profusely, and even the sweat flowed into my eyes...it hurts.

I just took my finger in such a self-injurious manner, and stabbed myself in the neck fiercely.

That sense of relief made me feel relieved.

Sitting coldly on the bed, turning on the desk lamp, is it a ghost pressing the bed?Is that person hallucinating?is real?

A series of questions made me sleepless again.

Since grandma left, I don't seem to have slept well, and I even long for a coma, at least so that I can't feel anything.

The next day there was no school, I originally made an appointment with Yoyo to go shopping, but this girl actually missed the appointment, in the end I had no choice but to curse and say a few words to Yoyo and let this dead girl go.

By the way, I must introduce Yoyo here.

On the first day I came to university, I saw Yoyo standing at the school gate like a fairy, saying that beautiful women don't need to carry their own luggage to go to college, and Yoyo is such a girl.

At that time, looking at Yoyo in fluttering white clothes, I thought she was some kind of delicate and contrived young lady, but when I saw Yoyo rejecting all the seniors in a chic way, I admired this girl very much.

Yoyo was extremely powerful that day.

What I didn't expect was that I was in the same dormitory as Yoyo. In just two days, Yoyo and I became the best girlfriends.

……

I missed my homework for a few days, and I just took advantage of this time to make up lessons. Everyone said that good things will not last forever. There is some truth to this sentence.

A comfortable life has always been a luxury for me. Not long after I stayed in the library, I saw a message from Uncle Seven.

"Tang Xiaoyan, put on makeup at the crematorium tonight!"

Seventh Uncle, he is my life-threatening ghost, can't he stop for a while?

It's makeup again, Uncle Qi's supernatural Taobao shop is almost becoming a gathering place for the dead.

Ever since I signed the contract with Uncle Qi, I have never dealt with ghosts in a serious way. I either put makeup on the dead or took the dead on the road.

I went to Taobao and took a look at the customer's specific requirements. It was almost the same as the previous beauty's request. I had already started, so I wouldn't be so nervous.

So I called Uncle Qi, made an appointment, and hung up the phone quickly. Uncle Qi and I had no intention of talking at all.

After finishing my homework, I went home to rest.

It was exactly twelve o'clock when the alarm bell rang.

I was just wondering, going to a crematorium to put on makeup is a very scary thing, why did you choose this time, it is said that twelve o'clock is when the yin is the most serious in this kind of place, and the money is not worth it. It's really not easy to make money.

In my opinion, people who don't sleep and work in the middle of the night are generally the only ones like me except peripheral girls.

Running over other people's funerals.

Or pull those unclean things away from you, so that you no longer fear death, no longer feel death.

But the more things like this happen, the more worrying it means to me.

After a while, I arrived at the crematorium. After twelve o’clock, generally no one would come to the crematorium. Just as I reached out to knock on the door, the door opened. I shivered and saw a hunched old man. He glanced at me listlessly, "The undertaker?"

"what?"

I didn't understand the old man's words. At this moment, I was still thinking, would all the guards in crematoriums or morgues choose such an ugly old man first?
I don't mean to despise, but I think that such people may have experienced too much, even if they encounter ghosts, they will not be really afraid, so they dare to come to such a place to work.

"Make-up for the dead?" The old man was obviously a little impatient.

"Ah, oh..." I nodded, not daring to say much, and followed the old man in.

Uncle Qi told me before I came that the east side of the crematorium is the morgue, and the west side is the cremation place. The old man led me to the east, and I followed behind the old man dully.

The empty corridor echoed because of our presence.

But it was just the sound of footsteps. It was surprisingly quiet at the moment, as if a needle would echo when dropped on the ground, and the sound of pattering footsteps was even more bewildering.

This corridor seems to be very long, and there is not even a single light, "Uncle, why is there no light?"

"You are an embalmer, are you still afraid of these things?" Although the uncle didn't look back, I could imagine that he must be despising me at this moment.

I'm clearly just a college student, alright, and I'm still a college student who just entered college, but I wasted the nights of my prime years on such weird things. If I tell it, few people will believe it.

The undertaker, if I remember correctly, really specializes in dealing with the dead.

Look at the good deeds Uncle Qi has done, probably not many girls can do this job, right?

"Are you short of money?"

"What do you mean, uncle?"

In the quiet surroundings, I can only hear my breathing, but the uncle’s sudden words made me tremble suddenly. If this uncle goes to make a horror movie, it will definitely be a blockbuster. It has its own halo, and there is no one in the horror atmosphere. .

"How can a little girl do this? You are fancy, right?"

"It's hard to say, uncle!"

I have always been a very cautious person, I never strike up a conversation with strangers, let alone take the initiative to tell others about me, so I don't want to explain this.

Fortunately, in the process of chatting with the uncle like this, we soon arrived at the morgue.

Looking at the three big characters of "mortuary" and the flickering candle in the uncle's hand, I didn't scare myself. After all, this is the first time I have come to a crematorium to do such a thing, so I inevitably have no idea.

"Go in, the body is in there."

When the uncle turned around, the candle just shone on the uncle's face, just like we used to scare people when we were young, shining a flashlight on our face.

I couldn't help but back away.

"If you're scared, there's still time to go now."

"I..." I really wanted to say: OK, then I'll go.But the agreement between me and Uncle Seven forbids me to do this, and I am [-]% unhappy, but I still have to do it.

"Are there a lot of dead bodies in here?"

"Is this your first time doing makeup?"

Well, I nodded, but then shook my head. Naturally, it wasn't the first time, but what's the difference between this and the first time, it was only the first time yesterday.

I think in such an environment, it is obviously better to have one more friend than one more enemy.

The uncle raised his eyes and looked at me, but I didn't dare to look directly into the uncle's eyes, his eyes were hollow, I don't know if it was because of the night or innate.

"follow me."

The uncle opened the door as he spoke, and did not stop talking, "Go to the room inside, where the lights can be turned on, and you will be there tonight, putting on makeup for Xiao Li, you go and wait for me, I will push Come over the corpse."

"it is good."

It was still dark inside. After the uncle came in, he pointed to a door and let me in, and extinguished the candle. Fortunately, the door was not far from the door I entered. I groped in and found the switch. , Turn on the light, and this is not so scary.

Clutching his chest, he breathed desperately.

"what……"

"What's the name of the ghost, don't you know they don't like to make noise?"

As soon as I yelled, the uncle pushed the corpse in. I covered my mouth, looked at the uncle, and then at the naked corpse opposite me, with disheveled hair and straight eyes looking at me. How could I think of the inside of this room? Will there be another corpse?

The uncle looked at the corpse that was originally there, and then said casually: "This also needs makeup, but the person who put on makeup was scared away, so he didn't put on makeup all the time, and her family also asked someone to do makeup." , I guess it's coming soon."

When the uncle said this, my heart eased a little.

After the uncle put away my employer this time, that is, Xiao Li, he went out.

I wanted to call Uncle, but that Uncle seemed to have clairvoyance, so he refused before I could say anything, "I won't stay here with you, if you can't do it, go now."

I punched the uncle's back for a while, but it was limited to movements.

When the uncle closed the door before leaving, he left a sentence that reassured me a little, "In half an hour, that person's mortician will also come."

In other words, I'll be fine for half an hour by myself, facing the tightly closed door.

After getting dressed and getting everything done, I started to make up for Xiao Li.

As I said before, I have already learned how to make up, but it is only superficial. Thanks to Uncle Qi, the hateful boss, if it weren't for his coercion, I wouldn't be able to watch a hundred movies and videos. How the mortician puts on makeup is not a fun thing in itself, the more I think about it, the more sick I get.

Looking at Xiao Li, she should have been a resentful woman before she was alive. There was resentment in her eyes, and she didn't know how she died.

I shook my head again and told myself not to think about these things, why do I think so much about other people's affairs, just do what I have to do well.

Just after finishing Xiao Li's hair, the door creaked and was pushed open. I thought it was the mortician, and I was very happy to say hello to him.

But no one came in for a long time, the wind outside the door blew in, and my legs became weak after a while, in a place surrounded by corpses, a closed door suddenly opened, I Even if I'm stupid, I can still think of those unclean ones, right?

I swallowed, and after making sure that no one really came in, I walked over quietly and prepared to close the door.

As soon as I touched the door, it was pushed open.

"what……"

"What's the name of the ghost? Don't you know that the dead need to be quiet?" A very impatient voice came to my ears, the words were still the uncle's words just now, but they were not uncles.

I opened my eyes and saw a man in black looking at me with a frown.

"The undertaker?"

"Could it be, do you think it's a ghost?" After being ruthlessly despised by others, I was embarrassed for a while, and I grinned, trying to ease it up, but they didn't plan to talk to me at all.

Everyone was busy with their own tasks, and three hours passed like this.

In the middle of the night, I stretched my legs and arms, but I didn't see the undertaker when I raised my eyes. It was strange that he was still there just now, why did he disappear after a while?
