Chapter 83: The body is lost and another ghost appears; things are getting increasingly bizarre.

The safe was full of valuable jewelry and a lot of cash. Yun Shu counted it and found that there was more than 300,000 yuan in cash alone.

"Could it be that the Corpse Brother stole the safe just for money?"

Yun Shu searched carefully again and found a folder at the bottom of the safe. Inside the folder were some contracts and an account book. At the very back of the safe was a bag of seals, including company seals and personal seals.

"Let's give it to the police."

Yun Shu knew that the owner of the safe lived in this community, but she didn't know which villa it was. However, she had seen the police station when she came to look for the body.

Yun Shu played her flute, and the corpse not far away stood up straight from the ground. Yun Shu then placed the safe in his hands and made him hold it.

To prevent the contents of the safe from falling out, Yun Shu also put a garbage bag over it.

The sound of the flute faded into the distance.

When they arrived near the police station, Yun Shu hid in a distant place and did not show herself. She let the body jump into the police station's courtyard, put down the safe, and left.

It's quite far from the crematorium, and it took Yun Shu a lot of time to get back.

It was past nine o'clock at night, and the crematorium was deserted. All the staff had gone home, and only Lao Qian was resting in the security room.

Yun Shu hadn't returned yet, and Lao Qian was hiding in the security room, too afraid to go out, clutching the amulet Yun Shu had given him tightly in his hand.

Fortunately, the morgue was also equipped with surveillance cameras, so Lao Qian could see what was happening inside without leaving the security room.

Old Qian stared at the surveillance footage, muttering to himself, "Several people have come into contact with those two corpses. I wonder who planted the corpse-cursing insect. Everyone's gone home now, no one's sneaking back. Things should be fine tonight, right? I hope no more bodies go missing tonight."

The doors and windows of the morgue were tightly closed, and there were no living people inside. The footage captured by the surveillance cameras was almost still, like a photograph.

Because of the frequent disappearances of bodies, Lao Qian has been monitoring the situation here all afternoon and hasn't had dinner yet.

"I'm starving, let's get something to eat first."

Old Qian got up to boil some water to make instant noodles, but as soon as he stood up, he saw the surveillance video of the morgue playing!

The cabinet at the far end of the morgue was shaking incessantly, as if someone inside was pounding on the cabinet door.

Old Qian's eyes widened, and then he saw one of the cabinet compartments open, and a pair of pale, bluish-gray hands scrambled through the cabinet door and slid out from inside.

After it came out, the corpse's eyes were still closed. Then it jumped straight off the cart and skillfully landed by the window.

Old Qian witnessed the corpse open the window, jump out, and disappear into the night.

Although he had already seen the footage of the body jumping out of the window when he checked the surveillance footage in the afternoon, he was still shocked to see this scene happen with his own eyes this time.

It took Lao Qian a long time to come to his senses. He quickly took out his water glass and took a big gulp of water to calm his nerves.

"Which bastard did this? People are dead, and he still can't let them have some peace!"

Old Qian cursed under his breath, then looked around at the surveillance footage from other parts of the crematorium, wondering if someone had sneaked in and was hiding in a corner, controlling the corpse to escape.

But after searching for a long time, he couldn't find anyone.

Suddenly, the surveillance camera at the security room entrance flickered and turned completely white.

Knock knock knock.

Old Qian vaguely heard a knocking sound at the door. He was startled and felt a cold sweat break out all over his body.

He stared intently at the now-white surveillance screen, too afraid to open the door and check what was outside!

Old Qian quickly took out his phone, intending to call Yun Shu and ask when she was coming over.

His hands were trembling as he held the phone, and it took him a long time to find Yun Shu's name in his contacts.

The call was made, but there was no dial tone; the screen quickly showed that the call had been connected.

In that tense moment, Lao Qian didn't have time to think things through before putting his phone to his ear.

"Miss Yun, when will you..."

Old Qian had only spoken halfway when he heard the clicking sound of a doorknob turning on the other end of the phone.

He was standing facing the door of the security room when the door opened from the outside, and a head poked its way in, but that head...

No facial features!

"Ah! A ghost!"

Old Qian screamed in despair, only then realizing that his phone had no signal at all, and his call hadn't gone through at all!

Old Qian was so frightened that he dropped his phone and collapsed to the ground.

The amulet on his body had become noticeably hot and was emitting a golden light.

However, perhaps sensing the power of the amulet, the head shrank back, and with a click, it closed the security room door from the outside.

Half an hour later.

Yun Shu returned from transporting the corpse and went straight to the security room to find Lao Qian. She found him slumped on the ground, looking somewhat delirious, and muttering something to himself.

"A ghost, it's a ghost...!"

"It must have been done by that ghost!"

When Yun Shu saw that the amulet in his hand was somewhat burnt, she knew that he had encountered something evil and was so frightened that he had lost his soul.

She quickly grabbed a handful of rice from her canvas bag and sprinkled it on both sides of Lao Qian's shoulders.

Yun Shu scattered uncooked rice, but when it was scattered on Lao Qian's shoulder, the rice became soft and sticky, clinging to his clothes.

A person has three life lamps, located on the top of their head and on both shoulders. If these life lamps go out, it means that the person is about to die. A person with strong life lamps will be protected from even evil spirits.

Rice can ward off evil spirits and strengthen one's life force. Old Qian's life force was suppressed by ghostly energy, which is why he lost his soul and became mentally unstable.

About three minutes later.

Old Qian calmed down.

Upon seeing Yun Shu, he jumped to his feet and exclaimed in fear, "Miss Yun, I just saw a ghost! He must have stolen those corpses!"

Yun Shu asked in surprise, "This is a crematorium, it's not unusual to see ghosts here. Haven't you seen any before?"

"Nothing this strange has ever happened before!" Old Qian shuddered at the thought of the ghost's appearance.

Old Qian said excitedly, "That ghost was terrifying! It had no facial features! Its face was a bloody mess, its eyes had been gouged out, its nose had been cut off, and it had no lips, only a row of pale white teeth showing!"

This guy doesn't look benevolent at all; he's definitely not an ordinary ghost, he's a vengeful spirit! Did he come here to steal corpses to try and possess them and return to life?

Seeing that he was talking more and more outrageous, Yun Shu said, "Resurrection by borrowing a body is against the will of Heaven, and it cannot be done casually. I have checked, and those lost corpses cannot be used for resurrection."

"How did that vengeful ghost get here? It almost got into the security room! It was definitely trying to harm me! If it weren't for your amulet protecting me, I probably would be dead!"
