Zhou Ze was stunned for a moment.
Then he observed the female corpse again.
The female corpse was not wearing any clothes.
Perhaps it was because the female boss was unlikely to let other people see her again, so she didn't make any preparations.
Zhou Ze nodded and said:
"You're in pretty good shape."
The female boss was neither shy nor angry, but smiled and said:
"Thank you for the compliment."
They are all people who have died once.
I have let go of what I should let go of.
It's not to the point of being promiscuous and open, but it's definitely not restrictive.
Zhou Ze reached out his hand, stroked the female corpse's neck a few times, and asked:
"He wasn't bitten to death immediately?"
According to the female boss's previous self-introduction, she lived to be thirty years old. Taking into account the five years she spent as a ghost messenger, the female boss was only in her teens when the zombie incident occurred here at the end of the last century.
But this corpse is not that of a young girl.
“Yes, I was not bitten to death immediately. In fact, I didn’t die because of this.
My Lord, it's cold here, let's go upstairs and talk."
Zhou Ze really wanted to say no, as he felt quite comfortable here, but after looking at the trembling face of the female boss, he thought about it and nodded in agreement.
Everyone returned to her office.
Zhou Ze sat at the main table and was in a good mood.
He didn't expect that he would find the clue directly, and it was very likely that he found one of the victims from that year.
Sometimes you may really look for something in vain.
The female boss brought another cup of tea. Zhou Ze was not a tea lover. His work in his previous life was quite busy and he had no time to pay attention to these things. In this life, he drank more coffee. Occasionally, he drank Pu'er tea brewed by Yingying for him.
Putting the teacup aside, Zhou Ze said:
"Go ahead."
The female boss didn't ask Zhou Ze why he wanted to investigate the matter. Firstly, it was because of her status and position, and secondly, if Zhou Ze wanted to investigate the matter, she was actually willing to help.
After becoming a ghost catcher, she also tried to look for traces of that night when she was returning home from school, but in the end, she still found no clues.
She wanted revenge.
I want revenge.
Because of the wound on the neck,
Although it did not directly bring her death, it brought her something even more terrible: more than ten years of torture!
If she had been bitten to death that night, she might not have such a strong resentment.
"That was more than 20 years ago. I was 12 years old at that time. I have lived in Dujiangyan since I was a child. But at that time, Dujiangyan was just a small county town, far from being as developed as it is now.
Remember that night,
I went home alone after school in the evening, carrying my schoolbag. Because I had to rehearse for a song and dance party at school, it was already dark when I got home from school.
Speaking of which,
The female boss seemed to be in a heavy mood.
That memory was probably one she was very reluctant to recall.
Of course.
Zhou Ze wouldn't be so bored as to step forward to comfort someone, let alone hand over a handkerchief or tissue to wipe the tears.
joke,
They are all people who have been to hell.
Still need someone to comfort you
"A dark shadow suddenly grabbed me from behind, and then I felt an itch on my neck."
"Itchy?"
Zhou Ze couldn't help but touch his teeth with his gloved hand.
itch,
What does it mean
"Yes, it was very itchy, just like the feeling of being bitten by a mosquito. At the time, I really didn't feel any pain, just an itch, a sour itch that seeped into my bones."
Zhou Ze felt his back itchy after hearing her description.
But it was inconvenient for him to scratch his back now.
Upon seeing this, Yingying immediately stood up, walked behind her boss and started scratching his back.
call,
Comfortable.
"Then, I passed out."
The female boss said.
"Fainted?" Zhou Ze was a little confused. "Fainted from the itchiness?"
"Too much blood loss."
"oh."
"The whole process lasted about thirty seconds. I could even hear the sound of the other party sucking blood from my body."
"Why didn't you die?"
This was what Zhou Ze was very curious about. After all, the girl in front of him at that time was not a ghost messenger, but just an ordinary twelve-year-old girl.
"I was found unconscious on the road and taken to the hospital, where I was given emergency treatment."
"Then, is there anything wrong with your body?"
"Something went wrong. Not long after I was discharged from the hospital, I dropped out of school because my health was getting worse and worse. Every night when I went to sleep, I would have nightmares, very scary dreams.
I felt like I was in a nightmare. Not only that, but the pain in my body was also tormenting me.”
"Not fatal?"
"If my grandfather wasn't an old Chinese doctor, if he hadn't used his secret prescription to treat me, I wouldn't have lived for more than three months."
"Oh, is your grandpa still alive?"
“Still, but I have no contact with him anymore, because you know that people like us have too much contact with ordinary people, which is not good for them.
Especially if they are blood relatives from the previous life, they carry too many and too heavy karmas."
Zhou Ze nodded to show his understanding, but still remembered this person.
There are really many amazing artists among the people, and each of them is a treasure. The old Chinese doctor who was able to save the life of the man in front of him is truly admirable.
It’s a pity that Boss Zhou’s current injury cannot be cured by medicine. Even the most awesome doctor can’t make you grow in reverse, right
I remember that in my previous life, there was a period of time when anti-aging health products were very popular. The manufacturers even specially found old celebrities who always pretended to be young to endorse them, but in the end it ended in a mess.
“I survived, but it was a painful life.
Nightmare,
The nightmare that has been with you,
It's torturing your nerves every day.
For others, sleeping is a very happy thing, but for me at that time, sleeping was really a torture. "
"What about now?" Zhou Ze added, "You would feel happy even if you had nightmares at that time, right?"
The female boss was stunned for a moment.
Smiling and nodding,
It's considered as a default.
At least it’s much better than now, when I can’t even sleep.
"This torture continued until I was 30 years old. I never got married. My family knew about my physical and mental condition, and no one forced me to do it."
"How did you die in the end?" Zhou Ze asked curiously.
"An accident."
"oh."
"He was electrocuted."
"Does it hurt?"
"Well, it lasted a lot longer than I expected. So long that I regretted it."
"Expected?"
"On my 30th birthday, I sat in the bathtub and threw the hair dryer in."
"Yeah." Zhou Ze paused and continued, "It's good, better than getting in a car accident."
Yingying, who had been scratching her boss' back in the back, found it a little funny to hear the two people's topic becoming more and more off-topic.
The two of them were actually discussing how they died seriously.
perhaps,
This is probably a topic that only ghost officials can talk about.
Zhou Ze seemed to think that this topic was too self-indulgent, and immediately asked:
"Did you ever explore that matter before you became a ghost messenger, including after you became a ghost messenger?"
"I looked for him, but it was no use. I didn't see his face. That was the most fatal thing because I was very scared at the time. Now I really regret it. No matter how scared I was, I should have turned around to take a look."
After all, she was just a twelve-year-old girl at that time.
"However, these things were very common at that time, and the news was very intense. It is said that many people died."
"Not reported?" Zhou Ze asked.
The female boss shook her head. “My family discussed it at the time, but decided to keep it secret.”
It's like when a girl is raped.
There is a reason why many people are reluctant to call the police.
"And then what?"
"After that, I never gave up looking for it, but all my efforts were in vain. However, after I became a ghost messenger, I returned to my hometown and lived under another identity, which gave me a clue."
"What clue?"
"That was my second year of opening this hot pot restaurant and my third year as a ghost messenger. Late at night, the restaurant received a customer who was eating hot pot. He drank a lot of wine, and I drank a little with him."
Zhou Ze frowned.
Didn’t they say there is no accompanying drinking service
As if she saw Zhou Ze's confusion, the female boss added: "He looks okay."
Zhou Ze coughed and said:
"You don't have to explain."
"I'm sorry, sir, but he and I were drinking."
"After drinking?"
"He just paid and left."
"oh."
"But he said that his mother had been sick and stayed at home, which made him very miserable. It wasn't that he didn't have money for treatment or that he was unfilial. He just felt that his mother had suffered so much for so many years, which made him very uncomfortable."
"Is there something wrong with his mother?"
"Well, he said his mother often had nightmares, her body would always spasm, and she was very afraid of cold. He took his mother to many hospitals in China and even abroad for treatment, but there was no effect.
I didn’t think anything of it until he told me when his mother first started having these attacks. That’s when I became alert.”
"At the same time as you were bitten?"
"Yes, he could even go as far as to say the same day, because he said his mother was injured on his birthday when he was a child, and he remembered it very clearly.
And that day was also the day I was bitten, and I remember it very clearly.”
"Then what?"
"I followed him home, not in his car, but behind him, to his house."
"Her mother was also a victim?"
"yes."
"Have you asked?"
"I sneaked into her mother's room, but she was already out of her mind and I couldn't get anything out of her."
Zhou Ze blurted out:
"Kill her and ask the soul directly."
The female boss's face changed.
Looking at Zhou Ze in disbelief,
It seemed that he didn't expect such words to come from the mouth of a ghost catcher.
You must know that ghost messengers cannot kill ordinary people without reason, otherwise they will be punished by the underworld.
Zhou Ze smiled awkwardly.
The female boss in front of me is a ghost messenger.
It’s really pure.
But he also didn't want the other party to think that he was cold-blooded and disregarded human life.
A bowl of chicken soup came right away:
“If she lives, she will only continue to suffer, and killing her will be the same as relieving her of her torment;
At the same time, you can help her and you get revenge together.
I say this,
Right
