to my house Where did all my senior and junior brothers and sisters go Every room is empty, the whole house is silent, it's like a haunted house!" I exclaimed excitedly.That kind of desperation to se...I couldn't help but interrupt him, "Seventh Lord, let's ask this later. First, we should ask her why she's here."
"I, I was really kidnapped... I was sleeping soundly at home, and then a strange man came and took me! When I woke up, I was already here!" the woman named Chen Ru explained anxiously.
"Impossible, you must have done something... otherwise, how would you be brought here" I asked, frowning.
"I'm still a student, I work part-time and help my mentor with some research tasks. I haven't done anything wrong... Besides, I'm so poor, who would kidnap me" Chen Ruo said with a sob, her voice filled with grievance.
Poor I took a good look at her. From her hairstyle to her face and even her clothes, she was really plain.
Without powder or makeup, plain and simple, it doesn't look like she's lying.
The atmosphere here is too heavy, I decide to take Chen Ruo down the mountain first and have my brother watch over her.
As soon as we reached the slope, I saw my older brother escorting Zheng the Expert, followed by a few Yin soldiers and Ah-Da and Ah-Meng. They were about to head up the mountain to find us.
Zheng's expert was in a bad way, he looked crazy and his face was bloodied. My brother tore a piece of clothing to wrap around his head, making him look like an Arab.
"Xiao Qiao, who is this woman" My brother saw Chen Ru hiding behind me at once.
Chen is taller than me, and I can't hide her. But she's now very frightened, afraid of strangers, crouching slightly behind me.
The expert, Zheng, fell to the ground with blood streaming from his head. He was still agitated, muttering: "You... you want to kill me... I... I never want to come here again... That old man is the caretaker of the mortuary, I... I will be killed..."
"Cut the crap, you're already here. What useless talk Do you still think you can get away with this" My brother scoffed, "You old fool thinks dressing up like an expert professor will let you break free from these rules Either unravel your karma, or bear the consequences! You caused trouble and now want to run Not a chance!"
"You..." Zheng Zhe was so angry with my brother that he almost fainted, but he didn't dare to retort loudly.
My brother frowned and asked, "Old man, could it be... that our kid Archie got himself into this mess Did you do something underhanded in the middle of it"
"Me! I didn't!" Zheng Zhe frantically shook his head and waved his hands, looking extremely guilty.
My brother sneered, not believing a word of this Zheng expert's. But my brother didn't press further, he'd check it out later.
Zheng the expert was so flustered that his eyes darted around. He suddenly saw Chen Ruo standing behind me and froze, stammering, "L-Little Chen What are you doing here!"
"Eh" Chen Ru was taken aback, poked her head out and looked: "Professor!"
"Little Chen... You were also caught!" Zheng Zhexue's face turned pale, he fell to the ground and muttered, "It's over, it's over... Could it be that everyone who has seen it... none can escape"

The expert at feigning ignorance is first-rate. When pushed to a corner, he resorts to rambling nonsense.
Unexpectedly, the woman here, Chen Ruo, turned out to be a student of Master Zheng.
Chen Ruo would inexplicably appear here, definitely involved. Zheng the expert pretended to be crazy and didn't tell us the truth, so I planned to find out from Chen Ruo what really happened.
My brother shoved Zheng the expert aside, and I pulled Chen Ruo behind a bare tree to ask her about what happened.
As it turns out, Chen Ruo is also a top student. She pursued both her bachelor's and master's degrees consecutively in the extremely niche field of corpse beautification. At university, she was Zheng Expert's student. Due to her talent and diligence, she was often tasked by Zheng Expert.

This profession places a greater emphasis on teacher guidance compared to others, resulting in a deeper bond between master and student.
Generally, for some ordinary commissions, Zheng the expert would take a high fee himself and then let Chen do the work. He would just hang around to give some superficial guidance and then give Chen a small amount of compensation for her effort.
Chen is an ordinary student, and a few thousand dollars would be a huge sum for her. Therefore, she is very grateful to Master Zheng. She tries her best to complete every task assigned by Master Zheng.
This time, Expert Zheng is involved in this case of the zombie. Although Chen Ruo has not directly seen the zombie, she used computer modeling to reconstruct it based on the photos that Expert Zheng secretly took.
"So it was because of this zombie" Chen Ru widened her eyes: "I, I thought this was a commission from some archaeology team to the teacher, so I did a 3D modeling reconstruction and printed it out for the teacher..."
"You... you can build a 3D reconstruction" I was surprised. Chen Ru looked to be only in her early twenties, it was already surprising that she worked in corpse beautification, but to be this skilled
Chen nodded. "Yes, I started following Teacher Zheng when I entered school two years ago...Teacher Zheng has been rather busy lately, so the studio has mostly been left to me..."
Busy That old geezer went to such a lavish place to hide the sinister and deathly aura around him, what a joke.
"Could you take us to your studio Your teacher is in trouble, we're mages here to deal with it."
Chen Ru looked at me, suspiciously asking, "You look about the same age as me, are you a mage Female mages are rare."
"Do you have the nerve to speak to me like that Your profession is considered a disgrace in our eyes. We've never even heard of a female undertaker." I said with a mocking smile.
Chen shrunk her neck and whispered, "But the teacher is here, I can't make my own decisions... The teacher has been in a bad mood lately and rarely shows his face. It's said that it's because his son owes a large sum of money..."
Well, so that's how it is.
He must have jumped into this mess because he was desperate for money. He saw the high reward in Archie's hands and reluctantly went to look at the corpse.
Then Teacher Zheng discovered that this wasn't something he could solve on his own, but the money couldn't be returned. Even if it was, he couldn't back out. So, with trembling heart and fear, he started going to those special nightclubs, hoping to dispel the scent clinging to him.
Just as Song Wei was working on a "Secret Exploration" feature about contemporary special occupations, if she were an ordinary reporter, she would probably just interview someone casually, highlighting the hardship and sweat of these special professions.
Song Wei was a real pain, if something felt off she'd pursue it to the bitter end even if it meant spending all her wages. I have to admire her for that.
"Uh... Miss, did I say something wrong" Chen Ruo saw that I didn't speak for a long time, and cautiously asked.
"No, it's not your fault... you're also involved in this, don't you know where the funeral home is" I tried to get some information out of Chen Ruo.
She was much more innocent than the Zheng expert, and immediately replied: "I haven't been to that funeral home, but this place is remote... it doesn't look like there would be a funeral home here! The people who just grabbed me threw me into a mountain crevice and disappeared..."
"What did the person look like" I thought to myself. It couldn't be that Yin Su Bai was personally arresting people, could it
