The next morning, Qi Lu came to the door of the director's office of the Laojie funeral home, and saw that the door was open, and there seemed to be a voice talking inside.
Qi Lu took a deep breath, and read the details that he had thought out with Lao Wu yesterday in his heart again, before reaching out and knocking on the door.
"Please come in" Qi Lu raised his legs and walked in, and saw a middle-aged man on the office chair put down the newspaper in his hand, and there was a post card of the curator on the side of the table, on which Zhang Shifan was written in bold.
On the sofa on the right, there is also an old man who is nearly sixty years old.
"May I ask what is the matter with you" Zhang Shifan looked displeased, the funeral home has not been peaceful recently, he was afraid that the man in front of him was a tabloid reporter who came to the funeral home to listen to the news.
"Hello Curator, I'm here to apply for a job."
Qi Lu tried his best to make his tone sound like a graduate who had just left school, and then took out a forged resume and handed it to Zhang Shifan.
"Oh."
The curator breathed a sigh of relief, took Qi Lu's resume and looked at it.
"Mr.
Qi, although we don't pay attention to academic qualifications here, the major you studied in this technical school graduation certificate is not compatible with our funeral home, and it is difficult for me to hire you."
The curator said very politely, but Qi Lu still heard a hint of ridicule.
"I'm sorry curator, I think you misunderstood, I'm not here to apply for a makeup artist, didn't you publish a newspaper a few days ago that you were going to hire a morgue administrator?"
"What" The curator raised his head in surprise, looking at Qi Lu in front of him, he looked like a handsome guy both horizontally and vertically, but he always gave people a feeling of being a hanger.
The old man was also squinting at Qi Lu, and the expression revealed in his eyes was very complicated.
Zhang Shifan asked: "Many people are taboo about this job, why do you want to apply?"
"To be honest, it's really difficult to find a job with a low education like me.
Moreover, my parents are now laid off at home, and I urgently need to share the financial difficulties of my family. ” "That's right, I can see that you are a filial child."
Zhang Shifan turned his mouth and asked him: "But are you bold?"
"Boys are generally not timid, and when I was a child, I often walked alone at night."
"I have to come into contact with a lot of corpses every day in this business, so boldness is the first thing I consider when recruiting."
The curator smiled and pointed to the news in the newspaper on the table and said to him: "You see, two days ago, a timid woman was scared to death in the alley near our funeral home, and her body was being parked in our morgue. ” Only then did Qi Lu understand that when he came to the funeral home, he saw several police cars driving in the haunted alley last night, and there were many passers-by gathered around to watch the excitement, and it turned out that there was a murder.
"Yes, very few people are scared to death."
Qi Lu chuckled in his heart, remembering his bizarre encounter last night, he subconsciously glanced at the newspaper, and he was stunned, he couldn't believe his eyes.
Because he saw the photo of the deceased published in the newspaper, wasn't it the drunken woman with whom he had talked last night?
This is impossible, she was obviously a big living person last night, how could she be dead for two days Qi Lu hesitated for a moment, then picked up the newspaper and read it.
"She's really been dead for two days," Qi Lu asked hesitantly.
"Yes, the forensic doctor has already done it."
The curator's tone was calm, he had worked in the funeral home for more than twenty years, and he had long taken things like dead people lightly.
How could it be that she had a conversation with me last night, and the woman's miserable face couldn't help but come to mind.
"You say how can a girl nowadays be so timid," the curator sighed.
"Director Zhang, I don't know if I can get this job" Qi Lu hurriedly diverted the topic, avoiding Zhang Shifan from perceiving the panic in his heart.
"Well, you're hired.
Go back and prepare, come to work tomorrow, remember to bring the relevant documents to the personnel department to sign the contract. ” "Thank you, Director Zhang, I will report on time tomorrow."
Qi Lu didn't expect to get this job so easily, and yesterday he and Lao Wu were busy for a long time.
Walking out of the door, Qi Lu heard the old man say to Zhang Shifan: "Curator, you really want to recruit him, I think this kid is angry, I'm afraid he is not suitable for this job." ” "Didn't you shout all day long that your work was too tiring and you needed manpower, why did someone apply for it, but you were picky?"
"I feel like this kid is a coward, I'm afraid he won't be able to do it for a few days before he runs away."
"Don't pick, I've posted the recruitment advertisement four times, except for this stunned young man, who else dares to come to the past and the present, this unfortunate thing in the museum stall, it's good if I didn't close the door."
Qi Lu chuckled, it seems that the haunted thing of the funeral parlor has been rumored, and he has already scared away all the people who came to look for jobs, and he is just picking up a ready-made bargain.
However, what the strange old man said reminded him that it was also a good choice to pretend to be a coward once in a while, so that he could secretly investigate what was going on in this funeral parlor.
Walking out of the gate of the funeral home, Qi Lu looked at the alley on the side, hesitating in his heart, but finally decided to go to this alley to take a look.
The narrow alley is deserted, and the thrilling scene of last night is gone, and there are still traces of the police investigation of the scene on the dirty road.
Qi Lu was very disappointed, because he didn't see anything related to the woman, or any valuable clues.
Yesterday, I couldn't feel the slightest yin qi on her, but the curator said that she had been dead for two days, and Qi Lu remembered that she was vomiting beside him, and he couldn't believe that it would be a realistic action that a ghost could make.
Just as Qi Lu was pondering, a dry cough gently came into his ears, like the moans of a dying person.

Qi Lu looked at the sound and saw a short and thin old man staggering towards him, his thin body seemed to be able to blow him down at any time with a gust of wind.
The mouth of the alley was at least a few dozen meters away from the old man, and Qi Lu hadn't seen anyone passing by a few seconds ago, but the old man suddenly appeared in front of him at this moment.
Qi Lu was neither deaf nor blind, but he didn't see when the old man came in, let alone where he came from, Qi Lu looked at him in surprise, not believing that someone in this world would walk so fast Just when the old man was about to pass by Qi Lu, he suddenly asked Qi Lu for no reason, "Young man, what day is the lunar calendar tomorrow?"
"The third day of the third month of the lunar calendar."
Qi Lu secretly thought in his heart, the old man didn't have anything unclean, maybe he was too worried, he was just a pedestrian passing by.
"You know what the third of March is" "Halloween."
Qi Lu finally remembered.
On the third day of the third month of the lunar calendar, the legendary Halloween Festival, the day when the ghost door of the underworld is wide open.
Tomorrow night, there will be many lonely spirits and wild ghosts in the Netherworld to celebrate their festival "So young man, don't walk around these days, it's not fun to bump into ghosts."
"Uncle, may I ask if there is a dead person here" Qi Lu still had the figure of the beautiful woman yesterday in his mind.
"Dead man, there have been several deaths here, I don't know which one you want to ask" "Several" Qi Lu paused and asked him again: "Did a woman die here two days ago?"
"yes, the body was only found in the early hours of this morning."
"Why didn't I find it for two days in the early morning, it's impossible that no one passed by this alley?"
"The body was left in the garbage can, who would have paid attention if it hadn't been for the morning cleaners to clean up the garbage, it is estimated that no one would have known until now."
Qi Lu realized at this time that he had really encountered a ghost last night, and his face couldn't help but feel feverish, because he didn't realize that she was not a living person, which was really a shameful thing.
"What do you mean by the fact that there have been several deaths here," Qi Lu then asked.
No one answered his question, and Qi Lu realized that the old man was gone, just as treacherous as when he mysteriously appeared.
The cold wind blew, Qi Lu looked at the dark-colored garbage can, and shivered involuntarily. i0 t1706231537:
