Jiang Xiao looked around and, if he wasn't mistaken, he was standing in front of the funeral home.
Judging from the surrounding environment, it is still a deserted suburb.
Behind the funeral home, some small mounds of earth can be vaguely seen.
It should be a grave. The funeral home and the grave are built together. Forgive Jiang Xiao, he really doesn't understand this move.
Perhaps this is what makes ghost stories unique?
Never mind, since I'm here, I might as well make the best of it.
Pushing open the heavy iron gate, Jiang Xiao stepped inside.
hiss~
As soon as I put my body inside, I felt a chill and couldn't help but shiver.
This isn't a question of fear; it's a subconscious bodily reaction.
"Huh, pretending to be a ghost!"
[Rule 1: There are no ghosts in this world. Spreading ghost stories about funeral homes is strictly prohibited. Violators will be immediately dismissed.]
[Rule 2: If you see small mounds of earth within the funeral home grounds, please ignore them and do not alert anyone.]
[Rule 3: When in a room with a body, no matter what happens, you must not talk to yourself; otherwise, you will be responsible for the consequences.]
[Rule 4: All employees are prohibited from approaching the old dormitory area, and are also not allowed to wear white clothing inside the funeral home.]
[Rule Five: Without the curator's order, inventorying unclaimed bodies in the main vault is prohibited. No one other than the main vault watchman may enter the main vault.]
[Rule Six: Every now and then, confirm that your roommate is still the same person.]
[Rule Seven: If you need to go to the bathroom at night, it's best to bring your roommate with you; it might give you a sense of security.]
Rule 8: If you see a face with blood flowing from all seven orifices outside your window, don't panic; it may just be your imagination.
[Rule Nine: If your roommate violates any of the above rules, you can report it to the Warehouse Night Watchman.]
[Completion condition: Survive]
hiss!
Like the other chosen ones, Jiang Xiao gasped in astonishment.
The other chosen ones were all horrified; this strange tale seemed to be aimed at their lives!
They didn't even say how many days they were supposed to live?
Jiang Xiao's expression was also very unpleasant.
"How could I possibly memorize all these words at once? Do you think I have the quantum fluctuation reading method that Mu Xitang and Bai Yi possess?"
He was very dissatisfied, so he dragged over a table, jumped on it, and started tearing apart the employee handbook printed on the oil paper.
"Well, there's nothing I can do about it. Since I can't remember it, I'll just have to carry it with me at all times."
Dragon Kingdom Livestream Room: "?"
This seems a bit illogical, doesn't it?
[First floor, speak up about your doubts, what doesn't make sense?]
[Exactly, what's unreasonable about this?]
[Isn't the employee handbook right on your face? It's written so clearly in black and white. So, what did Jiang Xiao do wrong?]
【this】
To be fair, the employee handbook does not mention any rule against removing it.
So, since it didn't say "cannot be dismantled," does that mean "can be dismantled"?
This move is very much like Jiang Shen's.
"Jiang Xiao, what are you doing?"
A questioning voice came from below.
The speaker was a thin man with a buzz cut, wearing the same red work uniform as Jiang Xiao. The nameplate on the uniform indicated that he and Jiang Xiao were the same employees. However, he was pale, unsteady on his feet, and looked like he had been completely drained.
"Oh, I feel there are too many rules to remember, so I want to tear them off so I can look at them anytime and anywhere to prevent making mistakes."
Man with buzz cut:
Now that you've said that, I don't know whether to scold you or praise you.
When the other party remained silent, Jiang Xiao thoughtfully asked a question.
"Our employee handbook doesn't say we can't tear it out, does it?"
"That's not to say it's impossible."
But it didn't say it was okay, did it?
"Yes, Jiang Xiao, the curator asked me to call you. There's a fresh corpse that just arrived, and he wants us to clean it up."
The so-called "preparing" refers to tidying up the deceased's appearance and document. Judging from the rules, this funeral home probably doesn't have any morticians, so this arduous task must be left to the staff.
"Okay, let's go."
Jiang Xiao finally tore off the employee handbook and followed the crew-cut man to the morgue.
Chapter 343 Beautiful corpse
Besides a middle-aged man with a large belly, there was also a corpse covered by a white cloth.
"Okay, you two hurry up and clean up the body. We'll take it to the crematorium later. The family will come to pick it up in a while."
After saying this, the pot-bellied middle-aged man left the small room expressionlessly.
This guy must be the curator.
“Jiang Xiao, don’t just stand there, get to work! Let’s divide the work: you’ll clean up the bodies, and I’ll push them to the crematorium to burn them.”
"it is good."
Jiang Xiao nodded and squatted down to clean the deceased's body.
and many more?
Just as Jiang Xiao was about to touch the white cloth, she pulled her hand back and asked the crew-cut man in an incredulous tone.
"Dude, you mean I have to do all the dirty and hard work, and you're just responsible for pushing the body over for cremation?"
"Yeah, what else?" The man with the buzz cut had a matter-of-fact expression on his face.
Did I lose it?
Jiang Xiao stood up in shock. To be honest, this was the first time anyone had dared to speak to him like that.
"Are you a human or a ghost?"
"Nonsense, of course I'm human! Why are you asking that?"
"Oh~"
Jiang Xiao tucked the peach wood sword he was about to draw back into his waistband and said in a serious tone.
"The main goal is to determine your background so we can tailor our approach accordingly."
Crew cut: "?"
What does "tailoring one's approach to the person" mean?
He doesn't understand.
But Jiang Xiao was able to make him understand very quickly.
As the man in front of him clenched his fists and walked towards him step by step, the man with the buzz cut felt a rare sense of panic.
"What do you want? Don't come any closer! Let me tell you! I, Bao Lebin, am a trained fighter!"
Jiang Xiao remained unmoved. Instead, he broke off the mop handle from the corner of the wall and weighed it in his hand. Force is reciprocal; if you don't have to use your fists, then don't.
"I know you have some complaints, but every new employee is like this. After I leave, you can direct new employees just like I do, right?"
"Brother, how about this, let's do it together, we can do it together. I was just joking with you earlier."
Jiang Xiao ignored everything the man with the buzz cut said.
"You're right, but I still want to beat you up."
"why?"
"Because if I don't beat you up, you'll never know how powerful I am."
Wang Defa?
Bao Lebin's small eyes were filled with great confusion.
"Ah, actually I'm kind-hearted by nature, and I do feel a little guilty about hitting you."
Jiang Xiao smacked his lips and said that the short-haired man was just bullying others, and he would not be beaten violently by him. If he hits people casually, he will definitely teach the children who are watching the live broadcast bad.
After a pause, Jiang Xiao stared intently at the man with the buzz cut with an extremely intelligent look.
