Chapter 378 The Terrifying Castle Owner (38)
This was a disguised way of revenge for Fu Qi, and Chen Yuan ate her meal with extra relish.
After working for a whole morning, she could already tolerate the maggots wriggling on the corpses, and even found them cute after looking at them for a long time.
Fat and round.
She took a break from work and brought some medicine to Fu Qi.
I don’t know if the wounds from the beating he received yesterday have healed. Judging from his temper, he probably wouldn’t even bother to take medicine even if he had it.
As soon as I returned to my workstation, I met Tan Qing.
"What's wrong?"
Shen Yuan tilted her head and asked him, noticing a strange expression on the latter's face.
An indescribable strangeness.
"07:23, I found it."
Shen Yuan was completely confused.
"What did you find?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Yuan realized that something was wrong.
Tan Qingping never called her 0723.
Could it be that... there's a bug in the game?
Tan Qing narrowed his eyes and looked Shen Yuan up and down with sharp eyes, his expression cautious.
"do not you remember?"
Chen Yuan immediately adjusted his mood and showed an expression as if he finally remembered something.
"Oh, now I remember. You said it so suddenly that I didn't react for a moment."
Something that could make the original owner and the foreman so concerned must be very important to them.
"Really? You really found it?"
The foreman looked at Shen Yuan again and could not see any disguise in her.
It seems I'm overthinking it.
The foreman looked around cautiously, trying not to attract the attention of other workers.
He pulled Shen Yuan aside and lowered his voice: "Come with me."
Chen Yuan followed the foreman and left the corpse-picking area.
Several female workers nearby saw the two of them leave simultaneously, and they curled their lips and grumbled in dissatisfaction.
"Look, that 0723 is having an affair with the foreman again. How shameless!"
"That's right, she rushed over to me. I don't know how such a disgusting person like her can stay in the cemetery."
"Of course I feel good about it. I have a man to love me every day. How can we have such a blessing?"
After a round of contemptuous laughter, a female worker said symbolically:
"Okay, stop talking. If the foreman finds out, we'll be in big trouble."
...
Chen Yuan followed the foreman to the confinement room in the scraping area. The foreman had a bunch of keys in his hand and opened the innermost room.
The original owner had lived in the cemetery for so long, but had never been here.
Each area in the cemetery has its own dedicated confinement room, which is used to punish workers who make minor mistakes. They are locked up for two days and deprived of food and water for two days. After they come out, they will behave themselves and dare not make the same mistake again.
"I searched the cemetery for a long, long time, turning it upside down, and finally I found it."
Shen Yuan listened quietly without saying anything.
She still didn't know what the original owner and the foreman were plotting, but what was certain was that the relationship between the two was definitely not what outsiders said.
There is no ambiguity, it seems like they are using each other to find something.
Chen Yuan simply kept silent, as the more he spoke, the more mistakes he would make.
"Come and give me a hand."
The foreman worked hard to move the bed in the solitary confinement room, and Chen Yuan hurried over to help, lifting the corner of the table.
The iron bed was very heavy, and it was not easy for two people to move it.
"0723, please use some strength."
"I've already used all my strength."
Tan Qing's face, the foreman's soul, really looked a little uncomfortable when he spoke.
Chen Yuan gritted his teeth and moved the bed away. Suddenly, dust flew up and rushed into his lungs.
"Cough cough! Cough cough cough!"
Chen Yuan covered her nose and coughed repeatedly in pain, even tears came out.
The foreman handed over a towel, which Shen Yuan took but did not use.
Not to mention whether the foreman had noticed her flaw, she couldn't guarantee whether the foreman had any bad intentions towards the original owner.
At critical moments, it is always better to be more careful.
The iron bed was moved away, and the scene under the bed was completely exposed to the sight of the two people.
A rusty iron door was embedded in the ground, covered with a thick layer of dust, and the door handle was locked.
"Ever since I arrived at the cemetery, it's been locked. The executioner won't let anyone get close to it. He's obviously hiding something. A while ago, the executioner finally left the cemetery, so I finally had time to come here and take a look. Guess what I found?"
There was a glint in the foreman's eyes, and he was obviously very excited.
Shen Yuan followed up by asking, "What?"
The foreman pulled a small notebook from his jacket pocket. "This is the diary of the worker who was first locked up in this solitary confinement room."
The edges of the diary have turned yellow, and it is quite old. The handwriting on it has become blurred, but it can still be clearly recognized if you look closely.
March 8
[Why does this cemetery feel weird? It's so eerie everywhere.]
March 10
[Is it because I'm too tired? I never remember what happened the night before.]
March 12
"This foreman is so annoying! Why should I be asked to carry corpses?"
March 14
[0723 is so beautiful! No wonder the foreman likes her so much, even I...]
When he saw this, the foreman tilted his head and glanced at Chen Yuan awkwardly.
Chen Yuan avoided her gaze and pretentiously lifted the hair beside her ear.
"Well, it's just average actually."
The foreman pulled the corner of his lips and said something after two seconds.
"Keep watching."
March 17
[Today I learned how to use the communicator, but I have no idea where this place is. There are things everywhere I've never seen before.]
March 20
More and more bodies are being brought to the cemetery. Is the war still that serious? I wonder if my parents are still alive.
March 28
[How horrible! How horrible! This isn't a cemetery! It's a slaughterhouse!]
The three big words "slaughterhouse" were written with particular emphasis.
A month later, this person started recording again.
April 28
【I discovered everyone's secret~】
May 1
"You think you can rest easy just by locking me up here? I'll escape! I'll definitely escape!"
There was no more content in the diary after that. What was even more terrifying was that there was a large spurt of blood on this page, which had dried and turned black.
"This person was silenced."
The foreman came to his conclusion after only one glance.
"The Chief Executioner controls the entire cemetery, and there's a huge secret hidden within it. If this person discovers the secret, the Chief Executioner will naturally leave no one alive."
As soon as he finished speaking, the foreman suddenly fell to the ground with convulsions all over his body.
Shen Yuan was startled and hurried over to help: "What's wrong with you?"
The foreman didn't react, curled up like a shrimp, and trembled like a sieve.
"Hey, don't scare me, at least finish what you're saying."
Chen Yuan pushed the foreman's shoulders, and after a while, the arc of his twitching suddenly became smaller.
Shen Yuan struggled to drag him up and leaned him against the wall, then patted the foreman's cheek.
"Are you feeling better? Wake up."
Half a minute later, he opened his eyes with difficulty, covering his aching head and feeling weak all over.
"Why am I here?"
