Chapter 81 This Corpse Brother is Really Polite

Seeing that her agent hadn't spoken for a while, Yun Shu said again, "Do I still have to go to the company for rehearsal? The people at the crematorium are in a hurry for the body and have arranged for cremation this afternoon."

If I need to go to rehearsal, I'll have to have them send a hearse to pick up the body.

"No!"

The agent quickly said, "You can send the body over first. You don't need to come to rehearsal today. Come back tomorrow."

"oh."

Yun Shu hung up the phone with satisfaction.

She was near the crematorium, holding a roughly made flute in her hand, and a person wrapped in a black cloth bag was standing not far away.

Or perhaps it shouldn't be called a person, because the skin of the ankle exposed under the bag was an abnormal bluish-gray and covered with lividity.

Yun Shu also tied a rope around his neck, with the other end of the rope attached to her hand, to prevent the corpse from escaping.

"Brother Corpse, let's continue on our way."

Yun Shu glanced in the direction of the crematorium and continued playing her flute. Suddenly, the thing wrapped in the black cloth bag started to move and, following her guidance, jumped towards the crematorium.

The back door of the crematorium.

An employee named Lao Qian was waiting for Yun Shu, looking anxious.

He saw Yun Shu walk out from the side path and hurried over to ask her, "Miss Yun, how did it go? Did you find the body? I really don't know which scoundrel actually went to the crematorium to steal a corpse!"

The body's family all came; there were so many relatives, a huge crowd, all waiting to send him off on his final journey! If they find out the body is missing, they'll definitely make us pay!

"They're here."

Yun Shu played a tune on her flute.

With a thud.

A black cloth bag suddenly jumped out of the bushes next to him, right in front of Lao Qian, and a strong stench of corpse wafted over.

"Wow!"

Old Qian covered his nose and took a step back. "The smell is too strong. It's probably going to rot. Quickly take it in and have the beautician give it a makeover!"

Yun Shu nodded and continued playing the flute, causing the corpse to jump through the back door and into the prepared mortuary.

"Old Qian, has the body been found? The family has been waiting for three hours, and they're getting impatient. They say they want to come in and check on the body!"

Staff members came over from outside.

"Found it! I'll do some minor repairs and then it'll be ready to be sent out!"

Old Qian opened the body bag and found that the corpse had more and more lividity, and the stench of death was very strong. There were also two very obvious knife wounds on the knees of the corpse's legs.

These two knife wounds were deep enough to expose the bone, but no blood flowed out to soil the skin, indicating that these two knife wounds were made after the person had died.

"He was perfectly fine when he died, but after going out for a while, he has two holes in his knees. I wonder if he encountered a pervert who abuses corpses. There are all kinds of people these days!"

Old Qian complained, then helped the beautician repair the body, applied makeup to restore its appearance, removed some of the odor, and had it sent out.

After the body was taken away, Old Qian finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He turned to Yun Shu and said, “Miss Yun, luckily I’ve been watching your live stream and I know you’re capable. Sure enough, it was the right decision to ask you to solve this problem!”

Otherwise, if the body is lost, the family members will probably tear me apart; they're notoriously unreasonable!

Yun Shu asked him directly, "How did this body get lost?"

Old Qian frowned deeply. "It seems someone broke into the morgue through the window. When I left the morgue last night, I checked that the doors and windows were closed, but this morning when I found the body missing, I saw that the window was open."

However, he was still a little puzzled. "But I didn't find any signs of forced entry on the window. It seems that the thief was very skilled at picking locks!"

"Maybe he opened the window and ran out by himself," Yun Shu suddenly said.

"ah?"

Old Qian's eyes widened suddenly as he looked at Yun Shu in disbelief. "Don't scare me! If you open the window and run out, wouldn't that mean you've turned into a zombie?"

Old Qian swallowed hard, recalling the scene of the corpse jumping back. "Right, he jumped back just now. Could he really have turned into a zombie? I need to go check on the furnace. I have to burn him as soon as possible!"

"Come back, come back."

Yun Shu quickly grabbed him, "Don't be so scared. If he really had turned into a zombie, he would have attacked me long ago. Why would he have followed me back?"

"What happened?"

Old Qian was puzzled. "If it wasn't a zombie resurrection, how could the corpse have run out on its own?"

Before Yun Shu could answer, a staff member ran over from outside, "Old Qian, something terrible has happened! Another body has gone missing from the morgue!"

"What!"

Old Qian rushed over to check.

Yun Shu followed.

When we arrived at the morgue, the staff said, "The body that was to be cremated this afternoon was taken out for cosmetic purposes a long time ago. The door was closed, and you were the one who locked it!"

Because of the body being stolen last night, I hired two new people to watch outside the morgue, and no one went into the morgue during that time!

But just now, as I passed by the morgue window, I saw a cabinet door open, and the body on the trolley was gone! So I rushed over to find you. Open the door, and we'll go in and check to see what's going on!

"Okay, I'll open the door first."

Old Qian was a long-time employee who managed the morgue. He was in charge of keeping the keys, and every time a body was moved in or out of the morgue, it had to go through him.

He took out the key and was about to open the door when he remembered what Yun Shu had said.

Old Qian paused in his action of opening the door, then looked at Yun Shu, "Miss Yun, could this be another case of zombies turning into zombies? If the corpses inside have all turned into zombies, wouldn't it be enough for me to open the door now?"

"..."

Yun Shu was speechless for a while. "I just told you, this isn't a zombie resurrection. Someone is probably controlling the corpse."

"You mean like you, transporting corpses?" Old Qian cried, "Isn't that still a zombie apocalypse? These corpses can move! What if they control the corpses to attack us!"

Seeing everyone's terrified expressions, Yun Shu had no choice but to say, "Open the door first. If the corpse is still hiding inside, I will protect you."

"All right."

Old Qian opened the door, his hands trembling.

The moment he pushed open the door, everyone else stepped aside, only daring to look from the outside, completely unwilling to enter the morgue.

Yun Shu went in first and immediately saw the open cabinet door, preventing half of the trolley carrying the body from being exposed.

She checked all the windows in the morgue again. Most of them were locked, but one window was unlocked and had a small gap, about the size of a fingernail.

Seeing that Yun Shu came in unharmed, the others became bolder and entered one after another.

Yun Shu pointed to the window and said, "As expected, it ran away on its own. This zombie was quite polite; it even closed the window after it went out."

Old Qian walked over, his expression complicated. "I remember locking the window, Xiao Xu, you were right next to me watching!"

He then turned to Xiao Xu to confirm.

Xiao Xu nodded. "Yes, I saw you lock all the windows with my own eyes! The corpse opened the window? Then it really is a zombie!"

Everyone's expression changed drastically.

Yun Shu said, "As I just said, it's not a zombie resurrection, but someone is using a special thing to control the corpse. If it weren't for that thing, the corpse wouldn't move."

Old Qian pressed on, "What is it?"
