The university he attended was not in Jiangyu, but in the neighboring province, which was not far away.
Before he set off, Lin Xi gave him a booklet and told him to read it more often when he was free and to memorize as much of the content and formulas as possible.
What she gave Zhang Hejin was an entry-level book on physiognomy.
Strictly speaking, it is actually a notebook. The contents of the notebook are all written by Lin Xi himself, including simple face-reading techniques and corresponding examples.
If Zhang Hejin understood the booklet thoroughly, setting up a stall under the Tianqiao Bridge would not be a problem.
Zhang Hejin cherishes the booklet Lin Xi gave him very much and said that he will read it carefully and memorize its contents carefully.
After Zhang Hejin left, Lin Xi also had to register for school in two days.
She had wanted to take advantage of these two days to rest and adjust her mood in advance, but she didn't expect that she had no time to rest at all.
Not long after Zhang Hejinqian came, another customer came into the store.
As soon as the guest walked in, Lin Xi frowned slightly.
Because that person has a lot of yin energy.
Either they have been dealing with corpses and ghosts for a long time, or they are haunted by ghosts every day.
Finally, after listening to the man come in and briefly explain the situation, Lin Xi sighed.
She guessed it right, but she didn't guess it right.
The person in front of him was indeed an employee from the funeral home, and at the same time, he was haunted by a ghost.
So he encountered both situations.
The man in front of me is Zhang Changhai, forty years old, and an employee of a nearby funeral home.
What he did was to guard the corpse, and he was also called the corpse keeper.
Some family members are lazy and don't want to stay in the funeral home at night to watch over the bodies of their deceased relatives, so they will hand them over to corpse keepers like Lu Changhai to look after them.
Others have to temporarily place the bodies in the morgue because there are not enough mourning halls and move them out later.
In short, for various reasons, the morgue in the funeral home actually stores a lot of bodies every day.
Zhang Hai has been working in this business for more than ten years and is considered an experienced veteran.
When he first started doing this job, he was a little scared, but he couldn't find any other job at the time. Also, although he was guarding the bodies at night, he was working the night shift.
In fact, the work content is very simple and easy. You only need to guard the door of the morgue at night, and then walk around the morgue halfway to take a rough look at the situation inside and whether the bodies are intact.
After the inspection, he can go outside and continue playing with his phone or sleeping.
So in fact, as long as you adjust your mental state, treat those corpses as "meat", and no longer be afraid, then this job can be said to be a pretty perfect job.
Lu Changhai has been a corpse keeper for more than ten years and thought that he would live in peace forever. However, some time ago, he suddenly encountered something that only appeared in TV dramas.
That night, as usual, Yu Changhai was playing with his phone at the door of the morgue until around two in the morning. Then he opened the door of the morgue and prepared to take a symbolic look inside.
There is only one door and no windows in the morgue, so it is impossible for a body to disappear inexplicably or be accidentally damaged.
Yu Changhai casually walked around with a flashlight, and seeing that nothing unusual had happened and the number of corpses was consistent with the number he had registered before going to work, he decided to leave.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, he suddenly heard a sound behind him.
It sounded like an iron frame shaking.
At first, Lu Changhai thought he was hallucinating. There were only dead bodies in the morgue except him, so how could there be any noise?
He thought about it, didn't care anymore, and continued to walk towards the door.
However, the sound became clearer and clearer, and even the sound of someone knocking on the iron frame could be heard.
Yu Changhai paused instantly.
The device for storing corpses in their morgue is not a pull-out device, but a simple iron bed-like rack.
Looking around, it looks quite similar to a student dormitory.
There are just too many beds, at least dozens of beds in one room.
The room, which was usually so quiet with only the sound of the air conditioner, suddenly heard the sound of the iron frame shaking.
After all, it can't be that the ceiling above my head is falling down, right?
Yu Changhai was actually a little scared at that time.
But then he thought that he had never encountered any "corpse resurrection" or other such things in all these years, so this noise could not have been made by the corpse.
He didn't want to look again, he just wanted to get out of the morgue quickly and lock the door.
But he was also worried that something might have happened to the body, like the ceiling might have fallen down and hit a body.
If the body is damaged, he will be held responsible!
After hesitating for a second, Lu Changhai finally mustered up the courage to turn around.
He looked in the direction where the sound had just come from, and the scene before him scared him so much that he almost collapsed to the ground!
I saw a corpse sitting up on a morgue bed in a row on the left side near the other end of the room.
He sat upright on the bed, like a living person, with his back and legs at a 90-degree angle.
His gaze passed through the space of the morgue and looked straight at Yu Changhai.
Corpse, the corpse sat up? !
The corpse sat up!!!
Lu Changhai was so frightened that he subconsciously shone his flashlight over the corpse and could clearly see the pale and blue face of the corpse.
That person is definitely dead!
After confirming that it was a dead person, Lu Changhai ran straight to the door without hesitation.
There was only one thought in his mind, which was to run out of the room as soon as possible and not stay in the morgue any longer!
But something even more terrifying happened.
The door of the morgue was less than two meters away from Yu Changhai, but he couldn't run to the door no matter how hard he tried.
He was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He gritted his teeth and sprinted, but he still couldn't reach the door handle.
Lu Changhai realized that this must be the work of that ghost.
But why did that thing treat him like this!
He doesn't even know whose body the body belongs to or how the person died!
Lu Changhai was already scared to tears by what he saw.
He continued to run forward, crying and shouting for help.
Unfortunately, there was no one else in the morgue except him.
Even in the entire funeral home, due to its structure, the morgue is some distance away from other rooms. Even if colleagues in other positions were on duty, they would not be able to hear his cries for help.
Lu Changhai had no one to turn to for help and couldn't escape. He was scared enough, but at this moment he heard footsteps behind him.
Then, a bone-cold hand grabbed his shoulder.
Before the "corpse" could say anything, Lu Changhai was so frightened that his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
When he woke up again, he found himself in the staff lounge of the funeral home.
A colleague was patting his shoulder and calling him.
"Yu Changhai, wake up!"
Lu Changhai opened his eyes in a daze, and when he saw that he was not dead, he burst into tears.
Then he told his colleague what had just happened while crying.
The colleague was a little bit unconvinced after hearing this.
After all, he had worked in a funeral home for many years and had never seen a similar situation.
"Are you dreaming? When I looked for you at the morgue door just now, I saw you lying there with the door open. Are you too tired and fell asleep?"
He had come to find Zhang Hai to ask him if he wanted to have a midnight snack, but he ended up seeing him lying on the ground.
Only then did Yu Changhai realize that he had fainted outside the morgue.
But didn't he remember that he never ran to the door and was always at a distance?
Thinking of the scene at that time, Lu Changhai shuddered again.
Seeing that his colleagues didn't believe him, he said, "There's surveillance! Let's check the surveillance in the morgue!"
You'll know she's not lying.
Seeing how excited he was and since there was nothing else to do at the moment, the colleague agreed.
In fact, he was also a little suspicious of Lu Changhai's appearance.
Could it be that he really encountered something?
But after they watched the surveillance footage in the morgue, they found that what Lu Changhai described did not happen at all.
It can be clearly seen on the screen that Pa Changhai entered the morgue at around 2 o'clock and conducted an inspection as usual.
After checking, he headed for the door.
Until he walked out the door, there was nothing unusual about the bodies behind him.
It was Lu Changhai himself who suddenly fell to the ground when he was at the door of the house.
A few hours later, the colleague showed up, helped him up, and took him to the lounge.
"I called you and you didn't wake up. I even prepared an ambulance."
After watching the surveillance video, the colleague hesitated and said, "Are you really sick? I think you should take some time out to go to the hospital. Your sudden fainting is no small matter."
Yu Changhai did not reply, but stared blankly at the surveillance camera.
how so?
How come the situation on the screen is completely different from what he has in his mind!
Could it be that he was really ill, and that caused his memory to become disordered?
But he could still remember the feeling of that hand patting his shoulder, it was so cold!
Unfortunately, the scene before him was nothing like the one in his mind.
In the end, Lu Changhai could only attribute it to his fantasy.
After get off work that day, he was worried and went to the hospital for a check-up. The final conclusion was that he was not sick at all.
Especially the head, there is no problem at all.
He also consulted a doctor about some inexplicable memories and images that suddenly appeared in his head.
The doctor explained that this might be his own fantasy, or a dream, because he might subconsciously believe that this is true, so there is a discrepancy between facts and memory.
The doctor said so, and the surveillance footage was indeed different from his memory, so Yu Changhai felt relieved.
When he went to work the next night, he kept telling himself not to think about random things, lest it be the same as yesterday.
After giving himself countless mental preparations, it was already past two in the evening and it was time for him to patrol the morgue.
