The sound in the mortuary

  The sound in room 021 of the mortuary

  For Jin Hai's sentence, I have to toast him a glass. Originally, I thought he was just a gentle and amiable old policeman, but now it seems that he is also a man of iron will.

  I was having a drink with Jin Haicheng in the duty room when the door was suddenly pushed open. It was that little policeman Ma Jian who had just come in. I saw that the blisters on his face had all disappeared, but his lips were still severely chapped.

  "Little Ma, you're okay now, come on, sit down and eat together." Jin Haicheng was delighted to see Ma Jian recover.

  Ma Jian stood at the door, glanced at me, and saw that I was actually chatting and laughing with Jin Haicheng, which left him somewhat bewildered.

  This kid should have no idea it was me who let the leeches loose, I smiled at him with a somewhat guilty conscience.

  "Come on, come in. It's cold at night, have a drink to warm up. The Wenshan side has confirmed that Xiao Xu was indeed there last week and didn't have time to commit the crime." Jin Haicheng hastily made an excuse.

  "Master, there was a call from the hospital just now." Ma Jian walked into the room with a somewhat strange expression and whispered a few words in Jin Haicheng's ear.

  "Hospital?" Jin Haicheng's face was initially filled with confusion, but after listening to Ma Jian's words, his entire face turned serious.

  "Xiao Xu, what was it you told me earlier about how to deal with a zombie?"

  I sat in the back seat of the police car, Ma Jian was driving, and Jin Haicheng was sitting in the passenger seat. It was now 2:30 at night, we were driving on a deserted street where not even a ghost could be seen, our destination was not to take me home, but to a nearby hospital.

  It's like this. It is said that the security guard of the hospital heard some strange noises in the morgue during his night patrol. After entering and checking, it was found that the sound came from the freezer, and after checking the records, it was the body of Uza, which was sent by the criminal police team for autopsy three days ago, so the hospital staff on duty directly called the handler Xiao Ma.

  It's already midnight, and he dares to patrol the mortuary, I really admire that security guard. What makes me even more admirable is Ma Jian, this young man, when Jinhai City said he wanted to go to the hospital for a check-up, he also volunteered to follow him, without even considering that there were still some symptoms of dehydration on his body that had not been relieved.

  。

  Ma Jian is so dedicated to his work, I have a bit more respect for him. As for why I'm also sitting in the car, it's purely because Old Master Jin Hai Cheng himself was feeling guilty. He heard that I know some martial arts moves and insisted on taking me along with him. I've only been studying on my own for a few days, what real skills could I possibly have? But since I finally got to know Jin Hai Cheng, I couldn't refuse, so I had no choice but to come along with him.

  The hospital is not far away, and we arrived in no time. The hospital still has that gloomy and eerie atmosphere, even the temperature feels a bit lower than outside. According to Taoist theory, this is because there are many sick people and dead people in the hospital, so the yin energy is heavy, making it easier to attract some unclean things. If explained in a more scientific way, it's that the hospital has a stronger "negative magnetic field".

  When going to the tomb, I feel the cold wind is also the same reason.

  The hospital sent only two people, the security guard who discovered the situation and a young doctor on duty. The young doctor is not to be mentioned for now, but the security guard's appearance was quite "outstanding".

  In our Yunnan, the ultraviolet rays are relatively strong, so most men have darker skin. However, it's rare to see someone as dark and ruddy as this security guard, especially with a large patch of purple on his face that covers almost half of it, making him look quite intimidating, probably similar to the "Green Faced Beast" Yang Zhi from Water Margin.

  Just like the red mark on my forehead is called "Red Cloud", the birthmark on the security guard's face also has a story behind it, and this birthmark is called "Purple Qi". People with Red Cloud on their foreheads are born with abundant spiritual energy, so whether they practice Buddhism, Taoism or witchcraft, they can easily achieve success. On the other hand, people with Purple Qi on their faces have extremely strong yang energy, and their eight-character destiny is very tough, in simple terms, it's called "ghosts see trouble", even small ghosts and monsters tremble with fear when they see them, and are afraid to get close.

  These people are also a group of bold and straightforward masters, and because they look fierce, in ancient times they would often become prison guards, tomb guardians or executioners. So it's no surprise that the little security guard in front of me didn't even miss the mortuary during his night rounds.

  The young doctor on duty was pale, apparently frightened, and his words were somewhat incoherent. On the other hand, the little security guard spoke very logically, but I don't know what kind of Mandarin he was speaking, anyway it sounded very awkward.

  Jin Haicheng waved his hand, and let the little security guard lead us to take a look at the morgue. This is my first time going to such a place, and who knows if there's a zombie inside, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't scared. But looking around, we have five big men on our side, including two armed police officers, and one "ghost-seer" with a purple gas mask, so dealing with just one zombie shouldn't be a problem, and I regained my confidence.

  。

  The security guard led the way, the young doctor followed behind, and we five people walked in a line to the morgue at the corner of the hospital. I found the young doctor's timid and absent-minded appearance somewhat amusing. I had heard before that medical students' first lesson was to practice bravery, and there were rumors that new interns had to spend a night locked up with corpses. Regardless of whether this rumor is true or false, those surgeons who perform operations every day should not have small hearts.

  This young man looks about the same age as me, should be a rookie, no wonder he was assigned to night shift. I handed over the Yulin Spring in front of the little doctor and asked if he wanted to drink some to boost his courage, but the little doctor declined with a hint of embarrassment.

  This half bottle of Yulin Spring was what we had left over from eating barbecue and drinking earlier. My master's book said that the most effective way to deal with zombies is to burn them with fire, so before I left, I brought this half bottle of wine with me on a whim. Even if it can't be used, drinking it will warm me up.

  The morgue was on the basement level, and just through a door, I felt a chill emanating from inside, which gave me a sudden jolt, and the last bit of drowsiness in my brain instantly dissipated. The security guard opened the lock and led the way in, without any hesitation, really bold.

  The four of us followed the security guard in.

  The inside of the morgue was actually like this, with rows of corpse cabinets on both sides, each with a number label on the door. In the empty space in the middle of the morgue, there were also two stainless steel trolleys, probably used to transport corpses.

  The entire morgue was filled with a strong smell of disinfectant, the eerie chill sent shivers down my spine, and I estimated that the temperature in here was several degrees lower than outside. I even heard the sound of the young doctor's teeth chattering behind me, which made me feel cold all over too, so I couldn't help but take another sip of Yulin Spring water.

  The environment in front of me is indeed a bit scary, but what was said on the phone earlier about hearing knocking sounds from the mortuary cabinet didn't happen at all. The whole funeral home was quiet except for the sound of our breathing and the compressor working, there were no other noises.

  Jin Haicheng furrowed his brow, I could tell that Old Jin was actually quite nervous before entering the morgue, but now it seemed like nothing was wrong, just a bit annoyed. In the middle of the night, he ran to a place like the morgue which was unlucky, and there was no situation at all, so he felt somewhat uncomfortable in his heart.

  "Little girl, you just said that you heard someone knocking on the door in the mortuary? That's impossible." Jin Haicheng asked the security guard.

  "I didn't deceive you, I knocked very loudly when I came just now, it can be heard from outside the door, is he too tired to sleep at this time?" The security guard said in a serious tone.

  。

  I almost got amused by this security guard, someone who has died once can still fall asleep from exhaustion? It seems that the saying "purple air pressing down" is not nonsense after all, this silly energy makes me suspect if this kid is missing a few screws in his brain.

  Ma Jian checked all around the mortuary and then walked to Jin Haicheng's face, shaking his head to indicate that there was nothing unusual.

  Jin Haicheng leaned in close to the young doctor and asked in a low voice, "Does that security guard at your hospital look stupid? Is he all there?"

  The young doctor made a sad face and said to Jin Haicheng, "Officer, please take another look. It's not that the security guard misheard. I came to check it out myself before you arrived, and there really was a strange noise. Otherwise, I wouldn't have called you."

  "I've never lied to anyone, everyone knows that my mother said that if you lie, you'll be punished by the King of Hell and have your tongue cut off after death. I'm afraid of pain, so I've never told a lie." Unexpectedly, this silly security guard's ears were still quite useful, and he actually heard Jin Haicheng and the young doctor's conversation. He knocked on the door of a nearby morgue, making a thumping sound.

  "The sound just now was like this," said the security guard with a smile.

  "Stop knocking!" The young doctor seemed to be frightened and yelled at the security guard.

  I stared at the security guard, no wonder he found such a job, it turned out to be a reckless fool, his untimely knock made everyone present feel uneasy.

  "Officer, take another good look. The body you sent over earlier was really suspicious. Anyway, the autopsy has been done, hurry up and cremate it." The young doctor continued to say.

  It's not up to Huo Yuhao to decide whether or not to burn the Sea of Flames. I'm a bit curious about this little doctor who's trembling with fear.

  I asked him: "Dude, as a doctor, you must have seen many dead people. I'm not even scared, what are you afraid of?"

  The young doctor didn't get angry, he said that when the forensic doctor came to their hospital for autopsy before, because his assistant didn't come, so they temporarily assigned one in the hospital, and he was assigned by the director to take on this glorious role because of his shallowest seniority.
