This is not a weird story

"It's okay, I'll come first!"

Wei An said something behind him and entered the morgue.

There was only a light that was not very bright at the door of the morgue. After taking a few steps inside, Wei An's figure was soon swallowed up by darkness.

At first, Luo Kai and the others could still see his back, but soon it became blurred and merged with the vaguely visible large number of corpse cabinets.

The three of them didn't move. They just tried to look into the morgue with their eyes wide open. They couldn't even feel the cold air blowing in the room for the time being.

In the morgue.

Wei An slowly approached the row of corpse cabinets in front of him. The corpse cabinets were divided into four floors, upper and lower, but only the two lower floors were used to store corpses. The upper corpse cabinets were not used.

In fact, after entering the dark, you can still see, but your vision is very blurry.

Although the rules say that props cannot be used, which means that professional skills can be used, there is no need for Wei An to use them yet.

After he was almost close to the corpse cabinet, prompt text appeared in front of his eyes again.

[You have reached the seven-step mortuary area, please turn around. 】

Wei An immediately turned around, his back facing the corpse cabinet.

Being in the darkness, he could easily see the three people outside the door looking nervously at the morgue, but their eyes were not focused, and it was obvious that they could not clearly see what was going on inside.

After turning his back to the corpse cabinet, Wei An quickly focused on his ears, trying his best to ensure smooth hearing while taking a step back.

There was no movement, and after this step, he heard nothing.

After a pause, he took another big step back.

Just as he took the second step, a corpse cabinet behind him clicked, and the metal rollers rubbed against the bottom groove, making a slightly harsh sound.

The sound was so loud that Wei An couldn't tell for a moment whether it was coming from directly behind him or from behind him.

He kept his breathing calm, not letting his mood be disturbed, and listened carefully again.

Then he slowly stepped back and took the third step.

Click!

Before Wei An's foot even touched the ground, there was another friction sound, slightly smaller than before.

This time Wei An heard it clearly. The sound of metal friction came from his left rear, which should not be far away from him at this time.

He adjusted the angle slightly, took out his left foot, and took a big step back diagonally.

Not far behind him, the corpse cabinet moved slowly and slid out again, but the friction sound was smaller than before.

Wei An once again pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

At this moment, there should be three corpse cabinets behind him on the left side. The angle and distance from which the sound came from just now, it should not be the corpse cabinet on the far left that is opened, but the second or third one from the left. A cabinet.

At present, Wei An has taken four steps. The remaining three steps are very important. The direction cannot be too far away, and the distance cannot be too far after taking seven steps. Otherwise, it will be difficult to get close to the body for burial.

He stretched out his left foot again and took a small step back to the left.

The corpse cabinet seemed to be about to slide out completely, so the sound was smaller this time. Only a slight click was heard, followed by silence.

Wei An frowned. He suspected that when he took the last step, the cabinet might be completely out, so it would no longer make a sliding sound to remind him.

Listening to the sound now, it seems that this corpse cabinet is the third one from the left, but he is not sure.

I reached out and touched behind me, but because it was still some distance away, I didn't touch anything.

This strange rule only says that you have to take exactly seven steps back to the open corpse cabinet, but it doesn't say that you can't reach back and feel around to determine the direction.

Listening to the sound just now, even though Wei An is heading in the right direction, there still seems to be some distance before he can get close to the target.

He estimated the approximate distance in his mind, adjusted his direction slightly to the left, and then took a big step back.

This time, there was no sound coming from behind while retreating, which meant that the corpse cabinet had completely slid out.

Wei An could only calculate the direction of the sound just now and retreat to the sixth step.

After standing still, he took a breath and could already feel an even colder air coming from a place behind him. This should be coming from the open corpse cabinet.

Based on the cold air, Wei An reached back and touched again, and also tilted his body slightly back so that he could explore further.

After a moment, the fingertips of his left hand touched a piece of cold metal.

This is the second corpse cabinet from the left and belongs to the second floor.

"This is it!"

Wei An felt relieved, adjusted the direction again according to the location of the metal, and then took the last step back.

This time, through the peripheral vision on his left side, he could already see an open corpse cabinet right next to him. There was a corpse lying in the dark cabinet, but it was too dark and the corpse was wrapped in a deep cloth. It's a body bag, so I don't know if it's a boy or girl, fat or thin.

A hint of a strange story appeared in front of my eyes.

[You have found the correct location, please start burying the deceased and trimming the remains. 】

What needs to be explained here is that since this is a hospital morgue, encoffining does not mean placing the deceased in the coffin, but restoring the deceased to the state before death, such as modifying the face and body.

If the work is simpler, you only need to put makeup on the face of the deceased. But if the workload is larger, if the deceased died in a car accident and his face may be damaged, then this damaged part of the face must be repaired.

If the limbs or body are damaged, the repair work will be more time-consuming and labor-intensive, and sometimes one person simply cannot do it.

However, Wei An speculated that since this strange story requires them to complete the encoffining work in the dark (at least in a dim state), the trimming part involved should not be large. If it is too difficult, it may even require several people to work together to complete it. In this kind of It is impossible to do it under any circumstances.

Then this isn't an E-level ghost story. It's probably a B-level, or even an A-level, which would be more appropriate.

The position where Wei An was standing at the moment was on the left side of the corpse cabinet that slid out, almost near the chest of the corpse. This position was also more suitable if he was to be buried.

In his mind, as just now, he had been told by ghosts that he had added makeup and facial and body modification techniques. Although he had not actually practiced it, the process of burial was no longer unfamiliar to Wei An at this moment.

A set of burial tools hangs on the handle of the corpse cabinet. This is a leather tool bag, and a full set of tools should be prepared inside.

Wei An removed it and spread it out under his feet. He found that there were not only powder puffs, eyebrow trimming scissors, eye shadow brushes, shaving knives, pressed powder, etc., but also wires, steel nails, screws, a small electric drill, and even a small hammer. .

After seeing these tools, his heart sank slightly. If there were tools such as iron wire and hammers, then maybe some parts of the body of the corpse needed to be modified, not just makeup.

Without taking any tools for the time being, Wei An stood up and leaned over the corpse cabinet, unzipped the body bag above his head, pulled it all the way to the feet of the corpse, and then looked over.

Although the light here is very dark, because the distance is very close, and there is still a little light coming through the door of the morgue, the appearance of the corpse can barely be seen.

The body in the body bag was not wearing any clothes. It was a male with short, sparse hair, about sixty years old, and slightly fat.

When he opened the body bag, his face was very peaceful, as if he was asleep. But when Wei An completely unzipped the body bag and turned to look at his face, the man's thick lips had already Open it, facing Wei An's head.
