After hanging up Sun Lu's phone, I felt my scalp was almost blowing up.

When he was in the forensic department, Sun Lu must not joke about such things.

He cried like that on the other end of the phone, and he said Zhang Xi was dead...

Zhang Xi is dead.

Then who did the one I saw before I came out of my residence and asked me to help him find Li Rui?

Holding the steering wheel, my brain was in a mess.

The fire broke out and a gust of wind drove back to the residence.

I went upstairs and opened the door, and the room was empty.

The towels and quilts on the bed seemed to be what I looked like after I woke up a few days ago.

I called Zhang Xi and the phone was actually connected.

Sun Lu's voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Xu Fai, Fai Fai, don't be fucking hard, come here quickly! I can't stand it alone!"

After hanging up the phone, I turned around and looked at the bed, got off the stairs, got on the bus, and drove directly to Qitian County.

On the way, I remembered what my grandfather scolded me:

"You shouldn't be born, you are just an ominous person, a scourge!"

I unconsciously thought of Sang Lan, Ji Yayun, and what I had encountered these days.

I graduated after less than a year.

As long as I pass the psychological assessment, I can graduate, have a job, and have a free dormitory arranged by the public.

Why did it all change like a change of the sky all of a sudden?

Hurry up to Qitian County and Zhangxi County home.

As soon as I entered the front yard mourning hall, my heart twitched violently, and then my scalp almost exploded.

The mourning hall was obviously arranged in a hurry and very simple.

Below the big word "Dian", there were actually rows of photos of five people on the Eight Immortals table!

A bright red painted coffin was parked in the middle of the mourning hall. The coffin was open, and Zhang Xi was lying inside!

"Who handled this?" I asked Sun Lu angrily.

Sun Lu glanced at two middle-aged men next to him, a man and a woman.

The man actually smiled and said to me: "You are Zhang Xi's classmate, right? I am Zhang Xi's uncle, this is his aunt. My brother-in-law and his family are poor, so we can only handle this funeral."

Seeing that Sun Lu looked ugly, I asked, "Where are you asking about the matter? Don't you ask about the matter?"

Zhang Xi's aunt sighed, "Oh, my brother-in-law and his family are all five dead. Our family's economy is not very good, and we can't do a big fuss. We can only take a ceremony to send them off. Tomorrow morning, I found a car to take Zhang Xi to the crematorium and cremated. Finally, I can't live up to their family."

Seeing her sighing, the couple did not look sad at all. On the contrary, they were still a little happy in their eyes.

Looking at Sun Lu's dark face, I understand the situation a little.

Zhang Xi's family was all dead. Most of the couple were looking at their family business and had no intention of managing the funeral.

I walked to the coffin and looked at Zhang Xi's body carefully. The more I looked at it, the more I felt something was wrong.

"When did he die?" I asked.

Sun Lu walked over and said, "I came to find him three days ago. There was no one in his house. When I asked the neighbors, I found out that something had happened in his house. I was afraid that Xizi would not be able to bear the blow, so I looked for him everywhere, but found that he was hanging in his Taoyuan."

"When do you think he died?" I asked again.

Sun Lu was stunned, "From the degree of stiffness of the body, when I found him, he should have died less than twenty-four hours. By the way, his family happened seven days ago."

Seven days ago?

Isn’t that the day before I was about to come to Qitian County?

At that time, I called Zhang Xi and it couldn't be reached. Could it be...

No, he called me on the way back that time.

I looked at Zhang Xi's body carefully again, and asked Sun Lu who changed his clothes.

Sun Lu said he changed it, and while saying that, he glared at Zhang Xi's uncle fiercely.

Zhang Xi was wearing a black suit now, and her face was peaceful, as if she was asleep.

But Sun Lu and I looked at him for a while, raised our eyes to each other, but we both saw horror in each other's eyes.

Sun Lu subconsciously lowered his voice: "Damn it, it's been three days. Why are there no corpse spots in the corpse in this season?"

I walked to the end of the coffin without saying a word, reached out to touch Zhang Xi's feet wearing leather shoes, and suddenly I had goose bumps.

I said to Zhang Xi's uncle: "This won't work. I have to find someone to ask about it and do it for Zhang Xi again."

Zhang Xi's uncle laughed dryly: "Haha, we are not here, so we know nothing about asking questions. Besides, this has been stopped for three days, so why are we going to do it again?"

Seeing that he looked as if he was smiling and perfunctory, I was so angry that I said coldly: "Respect the deceased."

After saying that, I asked Sun Lu to stare here and said I'm going to ask someone for help.

The business of asking questions is very special.

If there is no relative or a respected person, those who ask about things will never get involved in the affairs of the world.

Zhang Xi's uncle refused to come forward, so I had to go to find someone else to ask about it.

And the only one I know here is Xiaotaoyuan Village, who has been together for one time, asking about Zhang Ande.

When I arrived at Xiaotaoyuan Village, I found Zhang Ande's house directly based on my impression last time. Just as I was about to slap the door, suddenly, a burst of crying and snatching the earth came from inside.

I was hesitating whether to knock on the door when the door suddenly opened from inside.

One person came out towards me, and it was Zhang Ande!

"Come?"

"And." I replied subconsciously.

"Then go and get things done!" Zhang Ande got into my car while tying the buttons.

It was already dark, and I didn't have to worry about it now.

After getting in the car, I said to Zhang Ande directly: "I want to ask you to help preside over a funeral."

Zhang Ande immediately said: "It should be, I owe you."

"I owe me?" I looked at him through the rearview mirror, but saw his eyes hanging down, sitting upright in the back seat, looking like he didn't want to say much.

I didn't say anything more, and took him to Zhang Xi's house anxiously.

As soon as he entered the mourning hall, Zhang Ande changed his face and asked sternly: "Who is in charge? How could he park his body in the red coffin?"

Zhang Xi's uncle said: "This coffin was originally prepared by Zhang Xi's grandmother for herself. The old man didn't use it, so I decided to use it for Zhang Xi."

"Nonsense!" Zhang Ande strode to the coffin and only glanced inside, his face becoming even more ugly.

I don’t know if it was because it was dark and the lights in the mourning hall were dark, but I actually felt that his face was a bit scary. Why did I feel that he looked a little different from before?

Zhang Ande looked at the body carefully again and said to me: "Hurry up and go to the southeast corner to order three incense sticks, and then burn some paper money ingots, the more months it will be."

I didn't dare to neglect it, and I rushed to the corner with Sun Lu with incense and paper money.

Sun Lu took out the lighter and lit it for a long time, but the fragrance could not be lit.

Zhang Ande said: "Call the old man's name and say sorry."

I asked Sun Lu what Zhang Xi’s grandmother’s name was.

He took the incense and lighter and whispered: "Grandma Zhang, we are Zhang Xi's classmates. We are all sad when you have such a big event at home. No one asked about it before, but Xizi occupied your old house's longevity materials. You have a lot of it. You think it's because you love your grandson, don't blame him."

I called Grandma Zhang Xi’s name over and over again, lit it seven or eight times, and finally lit the fragrance.

I breathed a sigh of relief and asked Sun Lu to burn paper.

Just as Sun Lu and I were burning a lot of paper money, Zhang Ande actually closed the door of the mourning hall.

While burning paper, Sun Lu turned around and whispered: "Where did you find this question? It's quite formal, and he's actually wearing Tang suits."

My heart moved and I quickly looked back at Zhang Ande.

It doesn't matter when I see this, I almost fell to my feet and sat on the ground.

I was so anxious that I didn't pay attention just now. I saw clearly that Zhang Ande was actually wearing a blue satin dress embroidered with great blessings and longevity.

That actually was a shroud!

Looking at his feet, white socks, and thousand-layer cloth shoes... there was no shadow of him on the ground.

This Ende is not a human, but a ghost!

I suddenly panicked, got up quickly, and subconsciously went to get my bag.

At this moment, a gust of cold wind suddenly rolled up in the mourning hall.
