funeral parlor
There was a continuous drizzle and the sky looked so gloomy and dark. People were coming and going at the door of the funeral home. They were wearing low-key dark clothes, and everyone's face revealed a solemnity.
It is obvious that everyone who comes here feels sorry and sad for the deceased.
The closer she got to it, the closer Tonghua's mental defenses came to collapse. She was about to face a fact that she absolutely did not want to face. Although everyone around her had told her that her husband Qin Zun had passed away in the past few days, she still felt that it was just a dream, a painful nightmare that she could not wake up from for the time being.
But once she saw the body of her dearest and most beloved person with her own eyes, she could no longer escape and deceive herself that it was just a dream.
Tonghua's whole body trembled slightly. She walked very slowly, step by step. Suddenly, she stopped.
"Do you need help?"
Fang Zhengfan, who was standing by, couldn't bear to see her in such pain and offered to help.
Tonghua clenched his fists, breathing heavily, his eyes reddened: "No need."
After a pause, Tonghua seemed to have used up all his strength and courage, and walked towards the interior of the funeral home step by step, more firmly.
Fang Zhengfan followed behind Tonghua silently. When he saw someone looking at Tonghua's every move with puzzled, doubtful, curious and suspicious eyes, Fang Zhengfan approached Tonghua unnoticeably and blocked those inquiring gazes for her.
Finally, they finally walked step by step to the lobby of the funeral home. In this room, in the center was a large black and white photo of Qin Zun. In the photo, his eyes were still so sharp and lively. The photo was surrounded by large white chrysanthemums. The open space in front of the photo was filled with flowers and condolences sent by people from all walks of life.
Fang Zhengfan lowered his head slightly, walked forward and looked at Qin Zun's portrait, and silently placed the bouquet of white and yellow chrysanthemums in front of the portrait.
Tonghua stared blankly at the small door at the innermost part of the room, where Qin Zun's coffin was placed.
After the worship, Fang Zhengfan advised Tonghua: "Let's go, go back."
Tonghua said stubbornly, "No! I want to go in and take a look." Tonghua pointed to the room inside. "I was useless last time. This time I want to see his body with my own eyes."
"But so many days have passed, it's inevitable that Lao Qin's body will be somewhat...corrupted. Are you sure you can accept this?"
Tonghua didn't even think twice and said, "He's my husband and the father of my child. There's nothing I can't accept!"
Fang Zhengfan nodded: "Okay, I'll accompany you."
As Fang Zhengfan and Tonghua approached the door of the small room, two people rushed over from the left and right.
Their tone was very bad, and they scolded: "What are you two doing? You can't barge in here, do you understand?!"
Fang Zhengfan kindly explained, "We just want to go in and see my brother one last time. We don't have any other intentions."
Unexpectedly, the guard's attitude was still very bad. He said, "Who cares who you are?! Anyway, the higher-ups have ordered that no one is allowed to come near here. If you want to worship, go to the front hall."
After he finished speaking, another guard was about to drive them away, but Tonghua spoke up: "Even me?!"
The two guards were stunned for a moment, then looked at the woman in front of them from beginning to end. She was wearing a black cheongsam with a small white flower on her chest, and asked, "Who are you?"
"I'm his widow, don't I have any rights?!"
Hearing this, the two guards looked at each other, knowing they were in the wrong, but they turned around and said firmly, "Anyway, the higher-ups have given the order, no one can enter!"
Seeing their tough attitude, Tonghua also became angry. The person lying inside was her husband, and now she didn't even have the qualifications to see him. This was simply a huge joke!
When Tonghua was about to step forward to argue with them, Fang Zhengfan stood in front of her and winked at her: Watch me.
The fairy tale stopped. Fang Zhengfan, with a friendly smile on his face, put his arms around the two men's shoulders, took them aside, and said, "We actually know how hard you've worked. We won't make things difficult for you. This is a small token of our appreciation. We hope you can be flexible."
As he spoke, Fang Zhengfan took out a stack of red bills from his pocket and handed them to the two of them.
But what was abnormal was that this method, which had always been effective, was now ineffective. The two guards were unmoved by this and began to drive Fang Zhengfan and Tonghua away.
One pointed at Tonghua and said, "I tell you, this trick is useless. You'd better leave here as soon as possible..."
The guard pointed at Tonghua and walked towards her. At this moment, Fang Zhengfan saw that the situation was not good and shouted at Tonghua, "Run!"
Tonghua understood, nodded, and ran inside.
When the two guards saw someone go in, they naturally wanted to catch Tonghua out, but how could Fang Zhengfan let them do so? He first grabbed the back of the collar of the guard in front and pulled him back. Seeing that the situation was not good, the other guard actually punched Fang Zhengfan directly.
Fang Zhengfan hurriedly took a few steps back. In the chaos, he touched a chair and threw it towards the guard.
"Bang--"
The chair fell to the ground with a loud noise. The chaotic fighting scene naturally attracted the attention of other people in the mourning hall. Everyone thought that a terrorist attack had occurred here and was afraid that they would be affected, so they all ran to other places in panic. The people who entered the mourning hall later to pay their respects did not know what had happened and were still walking in.
Suddenly, there were sounds of running, screaming, and heavy objects that might fall and injure someone...
The scene became more and more chaotic, and these abnormal reactions naturally attracted the attention of those who were interested.
A group of men in black suits and uniforms walked into the mourning hall.
When Fang Zhengfan was fighting the two guards, something cold and hard suddenly pressed against his neck: "Don't move!"
Fang Zhengfan immediately smelled the smell of gunpowder, making him realize that there was a gun against his neck.
Fang Zhengfan immediately stopped and raised his hands in surrender, and the two guards also stopped fighting.
Fang Zhengfan turned his head, looked at the strange man in front of him, and asked, "Who are you?"
The man in the black uniform said, "I advise Master Fang not to interfere in our affairs... Go, bring that woman out to me!"
"yes."
The two guards obeyed the order and escorted Tonghua out on the left and right.
But Tonghua came out without saying a word, and his expression was a little strange. When Fang Zhengfan wanted to ask Tonghua if anything had happened, the man in black gave a look and asked the two guards to take Tonghua away.
Fang Zhengfan was furious: "Where are you taking her?! Let her go!"
