This is not a weird story

According to the staff member, this charred corpse should have been cremated more than ten days ago, but the reason why it has not been done is that during the process of cremation, the relevant personnel will encounter bad luck.

Wei An looked up at the staff member's forehead and saw a scar above his left eyebrow bone.

The staff member touched the scar and whispered: "I was the first person to prepare this body for cremation. I hadn't left the morgue at that time. When I got to the door, my foot suddenly slipped and I went straight forward. He jumped forward and hit his forehead on the sharp edge of the morgue bed, and blood spurted out on the spot!"

After a pause, he added: "But it's okay, it's just a skin injury. After a few days of applying medicine, it started to scab. But my colleague was even worse. His leg was broken directly at the door, and then the team leader personally came to push the body. , but he fainted before arriving at the cremation room, saying his blood pressure suddenly increased. From then on, no one dared to touch the morgue again."

Wei An shook his head and said: "You're right, you can't move. This charred corpse cannot be cremated for the time being. He still has unfulfilled wishes."

The staff member immediately said: "Master, I saw you fulfilled the last wish of the old man of the Liu family just now. Can you fulfill the last wish of this corpse? It is impossible to let him stay in the morgue forever."

"How did this man get burned to death? Do you know?" Wei An asked.

The staff member nodded: "This man is helpless. He usually picks up some leftover food on the street. However, he does not beg. He must have some mental problems, but it is not too serious. It is said that on the day of the accident, An electric motorcycle suddenly exploded while charging on the street, causing a fire in the store facing the street. This man happened to be nearby. When the fire broke out, he rushed into the store and rescued all two children in the store. The youngest That one is just over a year old.”

Wei An didn't expect such a thing to happen and asked, "What happened next?"

"Later he returned to the fire scene, but the store owner said that no one was inside, and he didn't know why he suddenly ran back." The staff recalled, "After entering the scene for the second time, he never came out again, and was later arrested. When he was found, he was curled up in the bathroom, and his body should have been stained with some water, so although he was burned to death, his upper body was not burned too badly."

"Since there is no one in the store, why did he go back?" Wei An asked.

The staff member was stunned for a moment, seeming to think of the current situation, and asked: "By the way, Master, is it that his last wish is still left at the fire scene and has not been completed, so he has been reluctant to be cremated?"

Wei An frowned and said, "What about the family of the child he saved? Have they not shown up for more than ten days?"

The staff nodded: "He showed up. This family is very grateful to the homeless man, but they are also outsiders. The only livelihood here is the burned down shop. After giving the homeless man money to pay for his funeral and buy some After finding a cheaper cemetery, the family had no money. Moreover, although the two children were not dead at the time, they were burned and are still lying in the hospital and require a lot of money for treatment."

"Oh!" Wei An probably understood.

From this point of view, it cannot be said that the family is ungrateful. Being able to take care of the homeless man's funeral and buy a cemetery for him is already their limit. Currently, the family still has two children with burns lying in the hospital. The medical expenses may be a Bottomless pit, I can no longer take care of this place for the time being.

The staff member added: "Actually, the body has not been cremated for a long time. After hearing about it, the male owner of the house came to see it and said many words of gratitude to the body. He thought it was because the homeless man had grievances, so he did not cremate it. . But the situation is still the same after he left, and there is nothing we can do."

"This person probably didn't blame the family he saved. There may be other unfinished reasons." Wei An said: "Do you have the phone number of the male owner of the family? Can you contact the other party now? I want to talk to him. call."

"Yes, we talked on the phone two days ago." The staff member took out his mobile phone and rummaged through it.

Wei An looked back and saw that next to the charred corpse, the corpse guarding soul of the short man was still standing in front of the bed, staring at him with a stern look, as if he was strictly on guard.

However, Wei An has no plans to go there at this moment, so he is not worried that the corpse-guarding soul will attack him for the time being.

"The call is connected, you tell him. This person's surname is Li." The staff member handed the phone to Wei An at this time.

After Wei An took it, he said to the phone: "Is this Mr. Li?"

"Well, hello, hello! The brother's body still can't be cremated?" The man on the other end of the phone may have saved the staff member's phone number, so when he got through, he thought it was the staff member talking to him.

Wei An did not explain his identity, but replied: "Yes, it cannot be cremated. But I remembered one thing. When the fire broke out, besides the family members who were rescued, was there anyone else in your house? What important things were not rescued?”

The man hesitated for a moment, seemed to be recalling, and then replied: "There are many important things that were not snatched out, such as several electrical appliances placed in the room on the second floor, and some cash in the room..."

"No, I mean something that has commemorative value or is very meaningful." Wei An corrected.

The man on the other end of the phone was a little surprised. He recalled it carefully and said, "There's nothing meaningful about it."

Wei An asked again: "Did this fire accident only lead to the death of the eldest brother who saved your child?"

The man immediately shook his head and said, "No, a dog was also burned to death. The dog's foot happened to be broken a few days before the incident, so it couldn't escape from the house."

"Where is the dog's body?" Wei An felt that he had found a key.

The man surnamed Li said: "The body has been burnt and has been buried long ago."

Wei An frowned, and after surmising in his mind, he said, "What I said may sound a little weird, but I want to know if this wandering brother has any interaction with your dog?"

The man surnamed Li failed to answer the question and hesitated for a long time before speaking: "You said that because the eldest brother is usually not mentally normal. I remember that he had eaten a gray meal before. Hmm. , my dog’s name is Huihui, and we usually pour the leftovers into the bowl in his kennel, which is in the alley next to the store.”

"Huh -" Wei An breathed a sigh of relief, "If you want this big brother to be cremated as soon as possible, dig out the dog's body quickly and bring it over."

The person on the other end of the phone was stunned.

At this time, the staff member on the side had already heard the general idea, and followed Wei An's thoughts and guessed the crux of the whole matter.

He took the phone away and walked aside to communicate with the other party in detail.

After hanging up the phone and waiting for almost an hour, a man in his thirties hurried over with two extra large black plastic bags in his hands. The plastic bags had been tied tightly to prevent any odor from escaping.

The staff member obviously knew him and immediately greeted him, pointed at the plastic bag and asked: "That dog..."

"Well, it's right here. It's a bit smelly. I dug it out and brought it over immediately." The man nodded hurriedly.

"Let's go in first," Wei An said.

The three of them quickly entered the morgue. At this time, the corpse guarding soul of the short man was still standing next to his burnt corpse.

Wei An prevented him from attacking people, so he asked the other two not to come forward, but to stand at the door and slowly dump the dead dog out of the plastic bag.

"No need to be on guard anymore, look who this is." Wei An said softly.
