Chapter 9 Eat the next one after finishing it
Episode 09 Eat the next one after finishing it
"Li Zhi, you are worthy of being me! You actually managed to keep Fu Lin here."
"He said in the group that he is worried about your safety and wants to find the missing Shanghe Star, so he postponed his plan to leave for the time being. Maybe he will accept the appointment of Anubis Judicial Officer who resigned before. In this way, maybe he will stay here for at least one more year!"
Early on Friday morning, I heard the clear sound of Xiaozhuang. There was a hint of excitement in her tone, but it made me feel a little stressed.
When Xiaozhuang entered the morgue and saw me, the first thing he said was not "Why are you here today?", but to tell me the devastating bad news. This shows that she is really happy.
Actually, I didn’t want to come because it was raining today.
However, face-to-face chatting builds trust and can more accurately judge emotions and status.
Of course, I didn't come here because of what Director Zhan said, "There is a highly corrupt giant view today."
Impossible Impossible!
Anyway, my hands paused, and I silently put on another plastic apron over my PPE (personal protective clothing). In pursuit of breathability, protective clothing sacrifices waterproof properties. No one wants to experience the feeling of blood or rotten water seeping into the skin, so an apron is crucial at this time.
"How did you do it?" Xiao Zhuang asked curiously, his eyes sparkling with anticipation. "Could it be that letter? What did you write?"
Xiaozhuang has typical choleric characteristics and is easily affected by emotions. In a small team, she can easily become a member who stirs up emotions, and sometimes she can become a mouthpiece and booster for others, stimulating emotional resonance in others.
"I didn't write anything." I said calmly.
What I wrote were just some ordinary farewell words, and some of them were even picked up from the Internet. Life is not a novel. When the protagonist is about to leave, hinting to him that "he is actually a time traveler" is undoubtedly superfluous and asking for trouble.
I just thank him.
Seeing that I didn't show the expression she imagined, Xiaozhuang subconsciously put away her active desire to express herself and turned to care about my mood, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
I sighed sincerely and said, "Because I caused him trouble. He wanted to leave so badly, but he was held back by my affairs. I feel really sorry for him."
Xiaozhuang quickly comforted me and said, "It's not entirely true. Think about it, didn't Shanghexing lose contact? Fu Lin stayed for him."
She didn't understand my point.
"I think," I looked at Xiaozhuang, seriously and firmly, "we should help Fu Lin solve the problem. Do you understand what I mean? We should let him get on the road home smoothly. I know you really want Fu Lin to stay, but now is not the time to sacrifice Fu Lin's personal feelings. We all know that he misses his family very much."
After Xiaozhuang was touched by me, his expression quickly began to struggle, and finally he lowered his head, "Li Zhi is right, I understand. We should help Fu Lin, not stop him."
"I have something to say to them," I paused and said to Xiaozhuang in a firm tone, "Can you help me set up a new chat group?"
The fact that Shang Hexing can imitate Fu Lin does not mean that he is born with strong social skills. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been alone in our team for so long. You know, most of our team members are enthusiastic and kind-hearted. No matter how difficult a person's personality is, they will automatically find the good points in the other person.
In such an environment, Shang Hexing was still indifferent to their kindness and was not close to them. This must mean that he had defects in his social skills.
If he thinks he can play this role-playing game with logic, then I will play the psychological game with him.
The most important thing is that he can't destroy my peaceful life now. Otherwise, I will have to use Plan B that I have treasured for many years - leaving Anubis City with my whole family.
This idea has been going on for a long time.
After all, I knew from a young age that this place was destined to be uneasy.
This plan has a natural advantage for me.
Because, for comic book players, they can't leave Anubis. But to the natives, Anubis is just a city. As long as I leave here, I will be free from the influence of the plot.
The reason why I didn't leave before was because our family's roots are here. Although my parents don’t have the highest salary here and their positions aren’t the highest, they have lived here for so long and their social circle is stable here. Letting them leave suddenly is like giving up a big gaming account that has been operating for many years. Without better conditions, it would be difficult to convince them.
However, difficult does not mean impossible.
I know that no matter what, I have a way out.
"Besides, I can handle my own affairs."
I have the ability to survive in this high-risk society for so long.
Xiao Zhuang, who was originally depressed, immediately refused when he heard me say this, "That won't do! You feel uncomfortable even on rainy days and ask for leave, how can you face the murderer alone?"
I was startled by Xiaozhuang's sudden and firm reaction.
Before I could respond, the door was pushed open. It was Director Zhan.
As soon as he saw us, he smiled and said, "You are so eager to learn! Quick, prepare the camera, the Giant View is coming."

The body was packed in three black plastic bags and taken to the autopsy room by four police officers.
The exhaust fan has been adjusted to maximum power, and even through the door, one can feel the door resonating slightly with a dull "whoosh" sound. However, as soon as we entered the door, we could smell a strong smell. Xiaozhuang had just taken a step when he automatically covered his mouth and nose with the mask and took three or four steps back.
The so-called gigantism is that when the body decays internally, microorganisms and enzymes release a large amount of gas when dissolving the organs, causing the body to swell like a balloon. It's filled with methane, carbon dioxide, ammonia, and the volatile natural toxin cadaverine. This volume can be increased to 1.5 times its original size.
It can be imagined that the corpse has become a happy paradise for microorganisms and maggots.
The sight of giants is as rare as a whale explosion. However, the corpse will not explode, so apart from the stench and putrid fluid, there is basically not much danger.
Director Zhan asked me to perform the first operation.
The feeling of the knife touching my skin gave me a slight jolt.
I wonder if anyone has ever cut a water balloon with a knife?
I don't actually have one, but I think it should be very similar. I would find that the taut skin had a sense of rejection towards the sharp knife, and the blade seemed to bounce off something slippery. The skin, which had been stretched without any wrinkles by the gas, even rippled slightly due to the force I applied.
Wow--!
I was about to share what I saw and felt, when I turned around and saw Director Zhan and the others were at least five steps away from me, "..."
"Cut it quickly." Director Zhan urged.
When I was about to turn back, the strength between my fingers increased unintentionally, but in fact it was only a few Newtons. It's just that the scalpel is too sharp.
I had just turned my head when Director Zhan exclaimed, "Li Zhi, get out of the way!" The next second a green liquid with a foul odor spurted out. I didn't dodge completely and was still splashed half way across my face, and even my hair was not spared.
The gas was still leaking. I could hear Director Zhan running over. I was about to say it was okay, but I saw Director Zhan arranging Xiao Zhuang to measure the distance of the liquid splashing. "…Fortunately, Li Zhi didn't block all the liquid."
Perhaps noticing that I was silent, Director Zhan seemed to have just remembered me. He quickly looked up and asked me anxiously, "Li Zhi, are you okay?"
I was silent for two seconds, and finally said, "…It's okay."
I reminded him again: "When the data volume is finished, share it with me as well."

Before dinner, we all took a shower.
The unit has a bathroom.
I showered for more than thirty minutes, making sure there was no other smell on my body before I came out. There were people queuing in the boys' bathroom waiting for a hair dryer. I calculated the time and realized it would be my turn in 15 minutes, so I just dried my hair until there was no water left and went to the cafeteria.
I ordered a bowl of beef vermicelli and was about to find a seat in the corner when I heard Xiaozhuang's voice from behind, "Li Zhi, come and sit here."
When I turned around, I saw "Fu Lin"'s face and my heart stopped with fright. Then I saw Xiaozhuang holding a pot of crayfish.
Seeing him staring at me without saying anything, I took the initiative to greet him, "What a coincidence."
"Fu Lin" said: "When I had dinner at your house yesterday, I thought the food in your company was delicious. I just happened to come to pick up Zhou Qiuying's car accident information, so I stopped by."
Xiao Zhuang agreed with a smile: "Fu Lin said you are very good at peeling crayfish. I want to learn from you."
I think there is a big and deep pit here.
"Fu Lin" smiled and said, "It would be nice if I could enjoy Li Zhi's service again."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaozhuang glanced at "Fu Lin" in surprise, as if wondering why he would say that. And "Fu Lin" responded to Xiao Zhuang calmly, saying: "I was just joking."
Xiao Zhuang also followed suit, "Then I want to enjoy it too~"
I glanced around and thought for a while, "That's not impossible. After all, there's no need to dirty so many people's hands. But if I have to peel them, I have to eat them all."
Xiao Zhuang asked in surprise: "Is it really possible?"
"Fu Lin" also raised his eyebrows slightly, "That's really great."
After sitting on the chair, I helped the two people peel the food carefully, and as I passed them, I said, "One for you, one for you too."
Xiaozhuang a crayfish meat.
"Fu Lin" is a raw garlic.
I responded with a smile, “After you finish eating, you can eat the next one.”
