Chapter 6 The Head Changer(1/2)

"Is the noodles enough? If not enough, I'll cook a little more." Pu Ji asked enthusiastically when he saw Chen Chu eat the noodles and the mixed sauce in the bowl.

For a chef, the most satisfying thing is to see others like to eat what he cooks.

"Enough." Chen Chu put down the bowls and chopsticks, he was really full.

"Hehe, that's good. Yesterday I saw you finish eating, so I cooked one or two more for you today." Pu Ji scratched his head honestly and honestly.

Chen Chu put his hand on his stomach, no wonder... I was only seven points full yesterday, but I was a little supportive today.

Pu Ji folded the bowls and took them to the kitchen.

Li Yin's cell phone rang, and after answering, the headmaster just nodded slightly, huh, and hung up the phone.

"Prepare to go to the mourning hall." Li Yin said.

"Here you live!" Pu Yu stretched, "Class master, then I'll go change my clothes."

"Today I go to the mourning hall and change to formal clothes." Old Deng reminded Chen Chu.

Formal clothing?

Chen Chu was a little confused. He suddenly remembered that yesterday afternoon Pu Yu came to him and gave him a bag and said it was a work clothes. He put the bag on the table at that time.

Chen Chu went upstairs to change his clothes.

After returning to the room, Chen Chu poured the cold boiled water from the kettle on the table into a cup, and then took a portion of the medicine prescribed by the Chinese medicine hospital yesterday.

Then take out the dress from the black bag on the table, it feels soft and is made of some kind of high-end silk fabric.

Grab the shoulder and shake it gently, and the robe in your hand spreads out like water.

This is a robe with full body. Chen Chu took off his coat and then put the outfit outside.

In front of the bathroom mirror, I had a black robe with a white flower embroidered on my chest, and the word "Sacrifice" was on it.

The cuffs and corners of the clothes have white embroidery threads, which makes the overall color look less boring. It is a bit loose and does not look hot when worn. The sleeves that come into contact with the skin are a little cold.

"Oh, I'm a little handsome." Chen Chu changed into this outfit and went downstairs, and joking Sister Mei who was leaning against the wall.

These clothes should be specially customized, and Chen Chu found that they fit very well on everyone.

Including the one on me, the code count is very suitable.

Old Man Deng looked up and down at Chen Chu, nodded in satisfaction, and said it was good.

People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. Chen Chu's face is gentle, with fair skin and thick eyebrows. A pair of narrow and long phoenix eyes adds a bit of coolness.

The Pu brothers all changed their clothes and raised two large pockets from a room on the first floor.

In the half-open pocket, Chen Chu saw the paper money, incense and candle.

"Brother Chen looks much better than the two of us when wearing this outfit." Pu Yu smiled silly.

"Brother is right." Pu Ji responded.

Sister Mei couldn't help laughing and said to the two brothers: "Xiao Chen dresses like a priest, you dresses like members of an illegal organization."

"It seems that some of the staff members have died." Old Man Deng walked back to the house and took out a box from it. His belongings were inside.

The headmaster also changed into the same clothes as Chen Chu and the others.

Everyone got into the car and the car set off directly.

"Don't you bring the steel pipes and shed cloth to build a mourning hall?" Chen Chu asked.

"I don't need to bring steel pipes and tarpaulins to build a mourning hall today. The mourning hall is indoors." Pu Yu said.

Municipal Government Office Public Mourning Hall.

A trace of curiosity flashed in Chen Chu's eyes.

He had heard of this place. It is said that the Municipal Government Office’s Public Mourning Hall is a place specially designed for the current staff to hold funerals.

But I have only heard of this place and have never been to it.

Because the custom of the Dongji Federation is to do funerals downstairs in your residence or in your hometown.

People who specialize in public mourning halls in municipal offices are usually either regular staff members or face-to-face people.

Ordinary people can apply, but there is no need.

Because generally few people do this,

The municipal government office's official mourning hall charges are not low, but on the other hand, there is no such custom.

In the Eastern Federation, it is important to be buried in the land and return to the hometown.

If you have the conditions after death, you will return to your hometown or do funerals near your residence.

The Municipal Government Office’s Public Mourning Hall is located in the city center, not far from the residence of the Funeral Class.

Although there was a bit of traffic jam, I still arrived at my destination within 20 minutes.

The van stopped in the yard, and there were several cars parked next to the parking lot. Chen Chu also saw the guard's car inside.

The official mourning hall is a two-story building.

The first floor entrance hall is very spacious, and there is a corridor after entering.

Chen Chu followed the headmaster and the others through the corridor. I wondered if it was a psychological effect, but Chen Chu felt that it was very cold.

The clean floor tiles reflect the shadows of everyone, and the cold mourning hall echoes everyone's footsteps.

After passing through the corridor, we came to the back hall.

In addition to them, many people have arrived here in advance.

Most of them are guards in formal attire.

However, most of them stood in front of a coffin beside the wall in the back hall.

Chen Chu could feel the atmosphere in the air a bit solemn.

In this atmosphere, Chen Chu followed Li Yin honestly.

Someone from the guard came to negotiate with Li Yin. When Chen Chu heard them, he roughly knew the identity of the person who died.

He is a regular staff member of the Guard Department. Because the heads and heads are separated, he needs to be renovated.

This is exactly one of the work areas of the funeral class. Only then did Chen Chu realize that Sister Mei actually worked as a part-time job as an embalmer.

Cultivate the deceased and let them meet their loved ones for the last time in the most decent way.

"Okay." Li Yin said concisely.

"Aren't the supernatural incident done by night patrol people? How could your guards be..."

Captain Zhang's face was heavy, and the man blamed himself, "It's all my fault."

Li Yin shook his head slightly, "This is the matter between your guard office and the night patrolman. We are just a funeral squad."

"Hello, Mr. Li, my name is Zhoushan, a formal staff member of the General Administration of Night Patrol, number..." A figure came over from the side.

Li Yin turned his head and looked plain, "I don't know you."

Zhoushan said to himself, as if he didn't see Li Yin's indifferent expression, "I didn't know him before, but now I know him. I heard that Master Li was from the headquarters before and had more experience than newcomers like me, so I came to the master to ask for some information, mainly to solve supernatural incidents, protect the people in our mountain city, and live and work in peace and contentment."

The person who came was a young man with long off-white hair dyed, with a slightly flattering smile on his face.

"Isn't it better to ask the people from your General Administration for this kind of thing? What is the ordinary non-staff doing?" Li Yin seemed to smile.

"Hehe, the director and the others are busy now. You also know that Fengdu is in our Yuzhou. Recently, there is a lot of uneasiness there. A new large Yin domain just appeared last month. Now the bureau is relatively tight. It is also the director who guided me to ask me to come to you."

Li Yin was silent for a moment, "Tell me."

Zhoushan was shocked and quickly told Li Yin the supernatural incident that happened in Jiujie early this morning in the simplest way.

"I am the tree and there must be something wrong, but I just can't find the problem." The young man was a little worried.

He scratched his head, his expression on his face was particularly entangled.

"I also used other means to check this tree. It was an ordinary tree. Because I was worried that it might cause any bad reaction, I asked the people from the municipal government to just surround that area and prevent others from getting close to that tree."

"I think if I want to find a way to find this supernatural incident, this tree may be a breakthrough.

Judging from the oral statements of witnesses, this tree is 100% problematic. It appears too abruptly and shouldn't have appeared here."

Zhoushan said seriously.

“If it could grow here overnight, it would be absolutely not ordinary.”

"That ghost has the ability to change his head. It can replace his head and then manipulate his body movements. Now it has been scattered in this big city. If it cannot be found as soon as possible, it may change another identity after a while, which will easily cause panic and be even more dangerous. This morning, the Guard Bureau checked its traces throughout the city, and within two hours, it changed eight bodies."

"And what's very difficult is that its ability is to change heads and targets. The person who has been replaced will not die immediately, but will continue to live with the logic of his life. A red line will appear on the neck of a person whose head is replaced. As time goes by, this red line will become more and more obvious. As long as others see through the strangeness of his identity, the person who has been replaced will die quickly."

"Then do you know what method is used to change your head? Do you still have to take off the other person's head and replace it?" Li Yin asked.

"I don't know." Zhoushan shook his head and smiled bitterly, "When it replaces his head, it is always monitoring dead corners, and we don't know what means it uses to replace his head."

Li Yin said, "Actually, your investigation is in a misunderstanding."

"It's a ghost, and ghosts have obsessions."

"Switching the head is not its purpose, it is just its means."
