Chapter 7, I have been waiting for you for a long time

This person is indeed Luo Ping

I felt a shiver run through me, sensing that my waist where I had just bumped into something was somewhat damp. Looking down, I was shocked to see dark yellow mucus on my clothes, along with bloodstains nearby

I pointed at the bed blocking the aisle and instinctively paused my words

I felt anxious in my heart and did not dare to step forward. Instead, I looked at Officer Lin, who was in uniform, and said tremulously: "You are a police officer, why aren't you the one going over?"

Then the fist stopped right in front of my eyelids, and immediately I saw the light; it was Officer Lin who took out his phone to illuminate the scene

She must have studied forensic courses at school. Turning back to me, I said with a grimace, "Officer Lin, how did you get to know Luo Ping? Why did you bring a dead person here to help me with this?"

Officer Lin also felt a bit nervous and asked, "Yes, why has the light gone out? Has the fuse blown?"

Where is this

Outside the door, there is a profound silence, with no sound at all

We both frantically beat, shouted, and called for help. After a few minutes, suddenly, Officer Lin and I almost simultaneously ceased this frantic behavior.

Officer Lin is indeed a police officer, but she is also a normal girl

I dare to bet one hundred yuan that this is definitely not something issued by the old man guarding the morgue

If it were in another place, I might not be too nervous, but here, the significance is fundamentally different

A faint sound suddenly came from outside the door. At first, we did not notice it, but when we quieted down, we felt as if someone was dragging heavy footsteps, moving slowly towards us. Then, a sound resembling that of a beast emerged from that person's throat.

Indeed, Luo Ping suddenly disappeared, and this bed is so abruptly blocking the passageway to the door. How could such a coincidence exist in the world

I was controlled by fear, pulling frantically a few times, yet it still would not open. Officer Lin then recalled the old man guarding the door of the morgue, as he pounded on it while calling out to him in a trembling voice

What exactly did I just collide with

In the moment the light went out, I instinctively ran towards the door of the morgue. However, I was taken aback when, for some unknown reason, an object suddenly appeared in the previously clear passage. In a panic, I retreated without thinking and collided directly with it.

Luoping

Although I knew the other party was using provocation, I still felt a bit angry at being looked down upon by a beautiful woman. Gritting my teeth, I said: "Whether I am a man or not is not important; what matters is whether the person you invited is reliable. You mentioned going to the morgue to find the reason, but suddenly the person just disappeared. Where could he have gone? Could he be lying on this bed? This..."

Her hand was a bit cold, yet it still conveyed the warmth of a living person. Officer Lin, whose hand I was holding, did not push me away; instead, he gripped my palm even tighter, as if afraid of losing me.

Officer Lin called out to Luo Ping several times, but there was no response at all. Instinctively, I glanced towards the door in the light and saw the object I had just bumped into; it turned out to be a stretcher, on which a person was lying straight. I had no idea how it had ended up in this corridor.

The iron door of the morgue at m.hetushu.com was locked from the outside by someone

Just a moment ago, Luo Ping, who was lively and repeatedly assuring me that he would take care of everything, has unexpectedly found himself lying on the stretcher where bodies are usually piled up, and judging by his appearance, he seems to be dead.

Some people may only come here once in their lifetime, and that is after they have closed their eyes. Every day, there are people coming in and others being sent out. Those who come in are those who have just ceased to breathe, while those who go out are headed to the crematorium.

At this moment, Officer Lin suddenly recalled, holding his phone and looking around. Luo Ping, who had just been by our side, was now nowhere to be seen, and no one knew where he had gone.

I recall the experiences of these past few days, and I can hardly stay here. With a bitter smile, I said: "Wait for him? I fear I might lose my life in the process..."

Officer Lin glanced at me and said with some disdain, "Wang Ming, are you even a man?"

Officer Lin and I exchanged a glance, instinctively leaning our backs against the iron door, gazing into the dark mortuary. We caught sight of the faint green light emitted by the emergency exit sign, and our hearts raced incessantly.

In this morgue, who besides the dead would be willing to lie on the bed that has held countless corpses

I do not know what I bumped into; a sharp pain shot through my knee, and I fell directly to the ground

I glanced back at Officer Lin, who was also quite frightened; however, she suppressed her fear and approached to examine Luo Ping.

The sound is very faint, almost inaudible, so I cannot determine who is calling me. However, after a short while, I felt a tickling sensation near my ear, and Ah Gui's voice came from beside me: "Old Wang, it's time to set off, we've been waiting for you for a long time, let's hurry up and go..."

In such places, the presence of negative energy is most abundant; even those who do not believe in ghosts and deities feel an air of misfortune.

We listen attentively

Could it really be Luo Ping?

At that moment, a sense of happiness suddenly surged within my heart

When the white sheet was completely lifted, a pale and bloodless face was revealed. Upon seeing the other person's high nose bridge, I immediately shuddered

Under the dim light of the phone, I noticed that the other person's face appeared somewhat stiff, possibly due to nervousness. My mind felt a bit short-circuited, but after a moment, I regained my composure. I glanced around in the light and then quietly said, "Officer Lin, where is Luo Ping?"

Is someone calling my name

The mortuary is located in the basement of the hospital. To maintain a low temperature, it is designed to be quite narrow. From the rows of low-temperature cabinets, there is a long, narrow passage leading to the entrance, which is an iron door, giving a sense of a safe.

As we both circled around the pushed bed, we almost ran to the iron gate, reaching out to pull it, when an incident occurred that sent chills down my spine.

Officer Lin also thought of this and said to me, "Go lift that white cloth and see who is lying there"

Under Officer Lin's gaze, I took a deep breath and then suddenly tore it open

If it were in the past, a person like me would likely never have the chance to hold Officer Lin's hand for a lifetime, as we are fundamentally from two different worlds; yet at this moment, she is so close to me that it seems like I could embrace her with just a stretch of my hand.

This sound at this moment is truly chilling, leaving one at a loss for what to do.

Officer Lin has always presented herself as very assertive, and due to her profession, I had the impression that she must be quite formidable. However, when she revealed a hint of vulnerability, it instantly filled me with courage. I forcefully suppressed the fear within me and cautiously approached, extending my hand. After a long while, I finally touched the stark white bedsheet.

Clang!

The floor was covered with cold tiles, and as I lay on it, I felt a wave of chill. Suddenly, I heard Officer Lin's exclamation nearby, so I hurriedly moved closer to him. After much effort, I finally managed to touch him, but he executed a swift grappling move, forcefully pinning me down to the ground, and a fist came rushing towards my head

Officer Lin instinctively clutched her chest and shot me a glare, saying, "She is also a girl..."

Died several days ago

Officer Lin's small face turned pale with fright as he said to me, "I don't know, he is just a blind date of mine, and I don't know him very well either..."

In a dire situation, two individuals huddle together, providing warmth to one another

Of course, I ultimately still do not dare to act lewdly towards a policewoman

What on earth was I thinking, accompanying that lunatic to go crazy?

I took two steps back, recalling that I had just bumped into this bed, and there were still marks on my clothes, looking as if they had been there for a long time. Yet just a moment ago, Luo Ping was clearly talking and chatting with us. What on earth is going on

Just as I took Officer Lin's hand, I suddenly heard a low voice seemingly calling out from the dark mortuary: "Old Wang, Old Wang..."

I did not have time to blame her, nor did I even want to understand the ins and outs of the situation. I hurriedly said to her: "Forget about what happened here, let's leave quickly, otherwise, who knows, we might end up lying in the cabinet ourselves."

Oh my, is someone dead

If she were to encounter a thug, she might be able to use the self-defense techniques learned in police academy to deal with him. However, when faced with these things, she may not be much stronger than I am. Upon hearing my suggestion, she hurriedly nodded.

Having reached a consensus, the two of us cautiously navigated around the stretcher and walked towards the door of the morgue

I still find it somewhat hard to believe, as if guided by some supernatural force, I extended my finger and poked gently beneath the other person's nose

Who is lying there

Luo Ping has disappeared, and I no longer dare to stay here. I want to leave the morgue, but Officer Lin suddenly grabs my sleeve and, with a serious expression, says to me: "Don't panic, Luo Ping is missing; wait for him to leave together."

morgue

Luoping

Silence

Cold and unfeeling, my fingers do not sense even a hint of breath, nor is there any warmth at all.

"It's me," I confirmed. Officer Lin shot me a glare and asked discontentedly what I was up to, wondering if I was trying to take advantage of the darkness to act lewdly. I was at a loss for words and replied, "Who would want to act lewdly with you? I was just running towards the door and ended up bumping into something. When I heard you shout, I came to find you—what happened to the lights?"

I do not know why, but I instinctively took Officer Lin's hand.

Do not be deceived by Officer Lin's good looks; her methods are quite ruthless. A hook punch came directly towards my face, and I was so frightened that I hurriedly shouted to remind her not to accidentally injure me
