Tang Ruoxi wanted to stay by herself, and Yu Huo was naturally overjoyed. But then he thought about it, and now that he was Song Fulai, it was obviously inappropriate to stay overnight. He then said: "Second Miss, what happened today, let's You're frightened and you're tired. How about this? I'll stand guard outside the door. If anything happens to you, just call me."
It was not that Yu Huo rejected Tang Ruoxi, but because of his special status, he could not spend the night with Tang Ruoxi as an elder like Song Fulai.
Tang Ruoxi seemed to understand what Yu Huo meant, and then said, "Okay, Uncle Lai, I'm going to make you tired."
After Tang Ruoxi finished speaking, she entered the bedroom, while Yu Huo stayed in the living room, preparing to find a blanket and spend the night on this sofa.
Even though it was a bit hard to sleep on the sofa, for Yu Huo, being able to guard Tang Ruoxi like this was already very satisfying and a very happy thing.
Yu Huo was in the living room and found that Tang Ruoxi's light had been turned off. It seemed that she was indeed frightened today. The nervousness made her a little tired. I hope she could have a good sleep.
Thinking that Tang Ruoxi had fallen asleep, Yu Huo couldn't sleep, not because of his own identity, but because of who was the corpse today that required so much effort to preserve it?
Yu Huo is now half-dead. After the sacrifice, the body was also taken away by the spirit woman. If it needs to be preserved, it seems that the same method must be used to prevent the body from rotting?
Judging from today's situation, the method of preserving the corpse is traditional and skillful, but judging from the degree of damage to the skull of the deceased's mask, this method of preserving the corpse is not foolproof.
And Yu Huo is naturally worried about his physical body. If the spirit woman is not properly preserved and the physical body has become corrupted, then there will be no way to return to his physical body.
As we all know, it doesn't matter if the corpse is rotten. As long as the skeleton and torso are still there, Yu Huo, as a member of the corpse-stitching lineage and a direct descendant, naturally has a way to restore it.
However, what outsiders don't know is that the Corpse Sewing Lineage can collect and reshape corpses for outsiders, but cannot repair their own bodies.
In other words, the lineage of sewing corpses can save others, but it cannot save oneself. This is a rule set by the ancestor, and no one can change it. This is where Yu Huo is worried.
After a sleepless night, Yu Huo was completely disturbed by the ringtone of his cell phone. The number displayed on the phone had the words "Toad" in the note.
This was Yu Huo's nickname for Liu Tie. It was his biggest fear of this potential love rival. After answering the phone, Yu Huo pretended not to wake up and said, "Who's not sleeping this early in the morning?" ."
"Uncle Lai, I'm sorry to bother you so early. I was too confident yesterday. Our forensic team worked all night long and failed to successfully restore the skull. I hope Uncle Lai will take action. You have many connections and can help. I’ll find a master.”
Seeing Liu Tie put down his arrogant head, proactively admitting his mistake, and humbly begging himself that human life is at stake, Yu Huo naturally couldn't bear to continue to embarrass him, and said instead: "Let's do this, give me the body, I'm looking for someone to find a way to restore you."
"Okay, I've already typed up the approval report, and I'm just waiting for Uncle Lai."
Unexpectedly, this guy Liu Tie is not only very efficient in his work, but also has a good mind. All the procedures that need to be carried out have been completed overnight. He seems to be a person who is doing big things.
With Liu Tie's approval report, Yu Huo can naturally make a request to handle the body alone. The reason why Yu Huo needs to handle it alone is because he has a special status and cannot reveal that he is currently possessed by Song Fulai.
"Let's do this. You can arrange the corpse in Jianghai Yangming Mountain first. I'll think of a way to find President Xu. He should have the right person to restore the skull and face of this corpse."
The reason why Yu Huo proposed to place the body in Yangmingshan was because it was a funeral parlor open to the public, not the police's underground morgue, and it could easily avoid police surveillance and camera control.
Yu Huo's current identity cannot be exposed, and his whereabouts cannot be easily exposed because of a corpse. After all, there are too many people who want to cause trouble for him.
As a direct descendant of the Corpse Sewing lineage, and burdened with the clues to the three major sacrificial weapons of the Corpse Sewing lineage, Yu Huo was destined to be unable to avoid these disputes from the beginning.
Although Liu Tie made this somewhat unreasonable request to Yu Huo, due to the consideration of the progress of the case, Liu Tie finally agreed to Yu Huo's unreasonable request under tremendous pressure, and then said: "I can press your request I'll do what I said, but in terms of time, I'm afraid I can't reserve too much time. Two days at most are enough, do you think it's enough? Uncle Lai."
Yu Huo knew that Liu Tie was under pressure, and taking the murder corpse away from the police's sight was not in compliance with the police's rules for handling cases. Not to mention the violation, it might also lead to greater risks in the case. This was a matter of principle. This should not be done and is not allowed.
But since Liu Tie was willing to cooperate, Yu Huo thought for a moment. With his current corpse sewing skills, he should be able to restore the appearance of the deceased in just a few hours. Two days was more than enough. He then said: "Captain Liu, I I know you’re under a lot of pressure, so be it, just give me a day.”
"One day?"
When Liu Tie heard this time, he couldn't help but be shocked, because in his many years as a police officer, within the scope of his knowledge, it would take at least a week or ten days for his colleagues in the forensic department to restore a skull. Above, but Yu Huo boasts that it only takes one day to complete Haikou, which is somewhat unbelievable and even a bit deceptive.
Liu Tie's face was full of confusion, because in Liu Tie's eyes, no matter who he was in the Tang family, he was a businessman after all. How could he be easily trusted when dealing with businessmen?
In order to dispel his thoughts, Yu Huo did not tell his true identity. Instead, he changed his way of saying it and said suggestively: "Captain Liu doesn't have to believe it, but don't forget. People who have followed Master Thief for many years still have some resources and abilities."
Although Yu Huo's words were a bit far-fetched, they did not dispel Liu Tie's doubts, but he had no better solution at the moment. He could only reluctantly believe Yu Huo once, nodded and said: "Uncle Lai, I can only risk it for you." Try to get one day. If you can't recover within one day, I hope you can return the body to our police intact."
"That's natural."
Yu Huo said firmly that Yu Huo's confidence comes from his confidence in the level of skill in corpse sewing. This confidence comes from his heart and not from anything else.
In the situation where Liu Tie had no other choice, taking risks gave Yu Huo the green light. The reason why he was willing to take risks was because Jiang Hai's city was closed due to living corpses, which made him change the way he handled cases in the past. .
Sometimes if you open your mind, it may be another world.
The reason why Yu Huo chose to transfer the body to Yangmingshan Funeral Home was because this funeral home was the only funeral home in Jianghai that catered to the public, and here, in order to respect the deceased, no surveillance cameras were installed in the morgue. This gives Yu Huo a better space to perform.
Liu Tie personally escorted the body to the Yangmingshan Funeral Home, while Yu Huo, after dressing up, went to the morgue of the funeral home alone.
With Liu Tie's help, the funeral parlor's security inspection certificates were all in place, and he entered the funeral parlor smoothly. Yu Huo took off his hood without taking off his mask, and took out the familiar cloth bag from his backpack.
In order to deceive others, ever since he possessed Song Fulai, the bag that was often hung around his waist had been deliberately hidden, and would not be taken out unless absolutely necessary.
But here, with no one else present, Yu Huo could naturally relax. Looking at these familiar tools, Yu Huo wanted to go back to the past. If he could go back to the past, go back to a normal life.
But there are no what-ifs in life. Things have come to this, and life must go on. Time is tight and Yu Huo cannot be allowed to lament life and miss the past here. He opened the white cloth of the corpse, and a wave of cold air hit his face, accompanied by a special medicine. The smell instantly made Yu Huo's breath feel deeply uncomfortable.
The familiar smell of the potion made Yu Huo immediately realize the source of the medicinal aroma, which was the aroma exuded by the soul-returning incense.
The usage and dosage of soul-returning incense are very particular. The aroma can cover up the smell of corpse odor, and at the same time it can slow down the process of corpse decay. And this corpse was obviously deliberately done by someone, with the same purpose as the corpse sinking into the deep sea. Just to keep the body from decaying and preserve it for a long time.
The source of the soul-returning incense is strictly controlled. It is obviously impossible to obtain it easily through ordinary channels, and the abandoned nest has become the only clue. Could it be that this corpse is related to the abandoned nest?
With this question, Yu Huo couldn't wait to know, who could the face of this corpse be?
The remaining fire was on the face of the deceased, and the needles kept flying, and the mouth kept chanting: the soul returns to heaven, the body returns to the thick earth, the heaven is attached to the emperor, the netherworld is the drink, the burial is in peace, the tomb is in the garden...
After arranging his face, Yu Huo took a long breath and pushed the mask with the back of his hand, preparing to restore the skull and face. This was a technical job.
Patience and getting rid of fear are the psychological obstacles that the corpse stitcher needs to overcome. Obviously Yu Huo has experienced countless such horrific scenes.
At the moment when the needle was inserted, he lit a stick of incense in the northeast corner of the deceased's body. Following the needle technique, like a fish swimming in the water, Yu Huo silently recited in his mouth: The sky is big and the earth is big, the deceased is. Big, one eyebrow, two dots for the eyes, sew back from bottom to top, face first, then facial features, male left and female right cannot be confused... twenty-three brains, face and skull, a new face appears in the world...
After two hours of repair, a familiar yet unfamiliar face appeared in front of Yu Huo, which really startled Yu Huo. The silver needle in his hand fell out of his hand inadvertently.
