Zhou Ze began to push his feet outwards, trying to get himself out, but there was a "clicking" sound from outside, which meant that the lock on the outside of the ice coffin had been fastened.
Locked in, can't get out,
For a moment, Zhou Ze seemed to have returned to the scene where he was put into the cramped coffin.
However, this time, Zhou Ze was neither manic nor angry. He just reached out and knocked on the metal plate where his head was:
"What's up?"
Zhou Ze didn't think that someone came here to help him push the ice coffin in and then lock it, unless that person was a mentally ill lunatic, and Zhou Ze didn't think his luck would be so bad.
and,
After he entered the morgue, he closed the door. A madman who knew the password to the morgue door
Do you believe it
Therefore, Zhou Ze could only think that there was such a thing that "helped" him, and helped him thoroughly.
However, after this question, there was still silence outside.
Zhou Ze simply ignored it, closed his eyes again, and prepared to have a good sleep.
I fell asleep very quickly this time.
After all, I haven't slept for two days, and a lot of things have happened in these two days, so the accumulated fatigue is extremely terrifying.
Even if there is a flood after my death,
Now no one can stop me from sleeping.
… …
I don’t know how long I slept. When Zhou Ze opened his eyes, he felt refreshed and had the energy he hadn’t felt for a long time. Unfortunately, his body was also frozen.
The stiffness of his body was somewhat terrifying. Zhou Ze tried his best to wiggle his body a few times in the narrow space. Waves of "crisp" sounds came, which were so comfortable that people made sounds subconsciously.
At this time, Zhou Ze's ten fingernails naturally grew longer and black, shining with a strange luster. The stiffness in his body and the coldness in his body that was unbearable for ordinary people were slowly gathering at the tips of his ten fingers.
The whole process did not last long, but it made Zhou Ze no longer feel cold and uncomfortable.
He subconsciously pushed his foot again, and the ice coffin slid out naturally.
Lock,
Unleashed
Zhou Ze was a little surprised. He sat up from the steel plate, walked down, and then pushed it back.
The clothes on his body were a bit stiff, hanging on him like cardboard, making him feel extremely uncomfortable, while Zhou Ze's eyes were darting around.
The morgue of the affiliated hospital was not very big. Compared with those large hospitals in big cities, it even seemed a little shy, but there were still quite a few corpses stored in it.
Zhou Ze didn't know who had helped push him in before, and it was indeed a bit difficult to find him now.
Fortunately, since the other party had unlocked the lock while he was sleeping, Zhou Ze didn't plan to create any more trouble here.
He walked towards the door of the morgue, intending to leave, but when he passed by the beds covered with white cloth, Zhou Ze stopped.
There was nothing unusual about the bodies covered with white cloth.
Even the old lady wrapped in her home floral quilt seemed to have not changed much.
But Zhou Ze still stopped.
Because he remembered that the old woman's head and feet were lying upside down.
It is impossible that the morgue manager ran in while she was sleeping and shook the old lady around without doing anything else.
Zhou Ze stopped beside the old lady and said:
"If it were you, I would leave if you didn't come out at this time."
The old woman pushed him in and locked the door, which might have been with bad intentions, but she quietly unlocked the door for him, which meant that she didn't want to harm him.
Maybe someone came over immediately and saw the secret cabinet with the lock open and discovered me.
After all, it is obvious from the outside whether these secret cabinets are locked or not.
After waiting for half a minute and seeing nothing unusual, Zhou Ze decided not to wait any longer.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, a sigh came from behind him.
Zhou Ze was disgusted by this feeling.
Twisting and hesitating,
Want to refuse but also to welcome,
She was clearly an old woman when she died, but she had to act like a little girl.
Well, age discrimination is indeed wrong, but normal people will always have a slightly higher tolerance for beautiful female ghosts, which is also human nature.
If Nie Xiaoqian had a face full of wrinkles and yellow teeth, do you think Ning Caichen would still have a human-ghost love affair with her
Zhou Ze turned around and looked behind him.
An old woman with silver hair was squatting there, wiping her tears with a washed-white handkerchief in her hand.
But ghosts don't have tears, so from Zhou Ze's perspective, the old woman looked more like she was howling.
"Go on crying, I won't bother you anymore."
Zhou Ze prepared to leave.
He found that he was just an ordinary person after all, and even when looking at ghosts, he still had some concerns about appearance.
"Help me, I have money." The old woman suddenly said.
"Yeah." Zhou Ze responded. He was short of money.
The damn Xu Le had less than 200 yuan in Alipay and WeChat combined, plus the 1,100 yuan sent back by the "murderer", which means that Zhou Ze's total assets are now less than 1,300 yuan.
Zhou Ze's house and savings from his previous life should have been donated to an orphanage, leaving him alone.
"My money is in the mezzanine of my cabinet, an old yellow-painted cabinet, with 30,000 yuan in it, and also my dowry, jade hairpins, jade bracelets, I don't know how much they are worth.
I died in a hurry and didn't have time to tell my sons because I was afraid they wouldn't know. "
Zhou Ze nodded, "I'll take some."
The old woman looked like she was struggling, but she still nodded and said, "It's what I should do."
The old woman knew that without Zhou Ze, the "outlier", to pass on the message, her sons might not be able to find the property she left behind.
… … …
After leaving the hospital, Zhou Ze took a taxi directly to a place called "Xingdong Town" in Tongzhou District. It was not very far away, and Tongcheng Airport was in this town.
Zhou Ze had inquired at the registration office at the hospital before. The old woman died after being sent to the hospital and failed to be rescued. The family members simply abandoned the dead body in the hospital and still owed the hospital a medical fee.
About half an hour later, Zhou Ze arrived at the town and found the village according to the old woman's description.
It was a two-story building built by the family, and next to it was a small brick house similar to a rural thatched hut.
When Zhou Ze arrived here, he found several workers demolishing a house there, and of course, they were demolishing the brick house.
Zhou Ze walked over, handed a cigarette to a chef, and asked, "It's almost New Year, are you still busy?"
"Just make some more money before the New Year. We are from the same village anyway." The bricklayer was quite free and easy.
"What's going on with this house?" Zhou Ze asked while looking inside. There were already two workers lifting the roof, and the bricks on the wall of the small house were being removed for later use. Inside the house, let alone the yellow lacquered cabinet that the old woman mentioned, there was not even a small bench inside. It was completely empty.
"His mother passed away, and she used to live in this house alone. Now she plans to demolish the house and build a new kitchen." The master leaned over and asked Zhou Ze to light his cigarette. He smiled a little stiffly and said, "Look, the one who just walked past the front of the house is their eldest son."
Zhou Ze looked over and found that the man with graying hair had some bruises on his face.
"Five brothers have been fighting over the money left by my mother. After the bricks are unloaded, the other four will come and share.
You see, the world is different now. Their mother is still in the hospital and none of the brothers are willing to pay back the medical bills they owe."
"What about the things in the old woman's room?" Zhou Ze was concerned about this. From the old woman's description, he knew that the 30,000 yuan in the cabinet was her life savings, but those jade bracelets and hairpins were the truly valuable things. It shouldn't be a problem to sell them for a few hundred thousand yuan."
"I sold it to the junk collector. It was cleared out a long time ago. I sold it when the old woman was first hospitalized." The master took another deep puff of his cigarette. "I'm going to go to work."
Zhou Ze licked his lips with a somewhat amused look, thinking that this trip was in vain.
Not only did the old woman not get a share of the things she left behind, but even her son was not able to enjoy them either. They could only sell them cheaply to a furniture dealer.
Zhou Ze is a little annoyed now. Having no money is really a big problem. He is not willing to use his ability to cheat people for money. Although this seems simple and cool, he almost died of pain last time when he saved a girl. God knows what problems will arise if he continues to mess around.
Zhou Ze didn't know if there was a god above his head.
But if he kept digging three feet deeper, he knew there must be hell, because he had been there.
He knew that he was not a human, and this was the human world. Moreover, Zhou Ze still remembered clearly how the patient who died in front of him shouted in fear "I've been discovered" before he died.
but,
Money,
Zhou Ze wanted to push the millstone.
But who gives the money
Zhou Ze needs money now, not to mention getting rid of his status as a "son-in-law".
At least you should buy yourself a freezer or a large refrigerator, right
Otherwise, I have to go to the hospital morgue every day to enjoy the air conditioning
Feeling somewhat depressed, Zhou Ze lit up a cigarette and took a deep puff, feeling extremely annoyed.
At this moment, the phone in his pocket rang. Zhou Ze picked up the phone. It was an unfamiliar number. He answered the call:
"Hello." Zhou Ze.
"Brother, the goods have arrived safely. When can you come to inspect them? The police have been checking very strictly recently. It's not easy for this batch of goods to come in." The person on the other end of the phone lowered his voice and spoke carefully.
Zhou Ze slowly opened his mouth.
No sound was made.
at the same time,
Xu Le's image suddenly rose higher and higher in his heart.
