50: Chapter 50 Going to the Morgue
Following the footsteps of the young nurse, Lin Heng quickly arrived at his destination.
The morgue.
Basement level three.
This was also why most people avoided the underground parking lots of hospitals.
After all, the floor below was where the corpses were kept.
It was too ominous!
Hiss...!
The elevator doors opened.
A wave of cold air immediately drifted out.
It seemed sealed; upon entering, one immediately felt a chilling wind rush toward them, carrying a dizzying odor.
This was no place for the living!
Of course!
There were corpses inside, after all!
After the young nurse followed him in, she immediately shivered, then quickly forced a dry laugh.
"Mr. Lin, I won't accompany you inside. It will be the same as last time; just finish the job, and Dazheng Hospital will transfer the payment to you then."
Lin Heng nodded. "Thank you for the trouble."
Soon, Lin Heng walked inside.
Su Xueer hesitated for a moment, then quickly followed him in.
The young nurse naturally didn't dare linger in that place. She quickly straightened her nurse's uniform and swiftly closed the elevator doors, leaving Basement Level Three.
After Lin Heng familiarized himself slightly with the environment, he quickly walked toward one of the platforms.
Time was tight, and there was no time for dawdling.
Su Xueer followed cautiously beside Lin Heng.
Suddenly!
Ahhh!
A scream instantly erupted in the basement.
Simultaneously, the livestream chat exploded with a long, drawn-out "Ahhhh!!!"
"Holy crap, what did I just see? A corpse! This is seriously... this is a dead person's body, right? Isn't this way too terrifying?!"
"Heavens, now I finally understand why so few people take this job."
"I heard they didn't pay wages for the last few days precisely because they were afraid people would run off. Otherwise, how could such high pay be given to someone who knows nothing?"
"But I have to say, watching Lin Heng's movements, his expression... Good heavens, I don't know what this guy has been through before!"
"I feel like Lin Heng didn't study Economics and Trade in college, but Anatomy."
"Hahaha, I agree!"
"..."
The viewers in the livestream chatted and laughed.
Many were also concerned about Su Xueer.
"Streamer, are you okay? This place is a bit too eerie. Even men might not be able to handle it, let alone the Streamer who just recovered from a serious illness."
"Streamer, be careful. Even the air here isn't clean."
"Oh, it's fine. These are all dead people; they won't reanimate."
"..."
Su Xueer read these comments and let out a long breath.
"Don't worry, everyone. I was a bit scared at first, but I'm much better now. It's just some lingering effects."
"If I were here alone, I might not last long. But as you can see, there's still a living person here, right?"
She said this partly to comfort herself.
However, seeing Lin Heng busy and focused, she seemed to quickly lose her fear.
But the viewers in the livestream soon started joking around.
"Haha, what if Lin Heng isn't human? How would you respond, madam?"
As soon as this was said, Su Xueer froze completely on the spot.
I...
She quickly closed the comment section and stopped looking, which helped her calm down significantly.
"Please stop scaring the Streamer. I'm very timid."
Su Xueer was almost scared to tears.
How could these people post such things? Didn't they know how much pain she was in internally?
"Hey, look quickly! Lin Heng's makeup skills..."
At this moment, someone quickly noticed Lin Heng.
They saw him calmly lift a white sheet from a platform outside, carefully examine the person's facial features, and then put down the items in his hands.
Foundation, contouring kit, eyebrow pencil...
The collection of tools was even more complete than what women used!
After examining the person's features and appearance, he quickly began applying makeup.
He was clearly a master of this trade, having reached the pinnacle of perfection. In just about five minutes, even a stiff corpse's face quickly regained some color.
And there was no sign of caking!
At first glance, one would think it was a sleeping woman.
Moreover, this woman had good natural features, and she was young, looking just like Sleeping Beauty.
The viewers in the livestream were amazed by Lin Heng's skill.
"Holy cow! Amazing! Lin Heng's makeup artistry completely outclasses countless little beauties domestically."
"I can't deny that. Lin Heng is truly skilled!"
"Even the dead person looks so beautiful; I'm starting to feel..."
"The guy upstairs, brothers, quickly report him and rid the world of one more pervert!"
"Oh my god, I want to learn this makeup technique, but I wonder if it's unlucky?"
"Seriously, I feel like the woman lying on that platform already has a beauty filter applied."
"..."
Lin Heng naturally paid no attention to these comments.
After finishing the makeup on the first woman, he quickly moved to the second person.
This was a fat person weighing about 200 pounds, taking up the space of two bodies.
He wondered if he would be charged double.
The head looked like a pig's head.
It was unclear if it was due to being soaked in water, but a nauseating, rotten odor emanated from the corpse.
Despite this, Lin Heng showed no disgust.
He picked up his tools and started applying makeup.
In a short while, he had transformed the person into a look of high spirits, slightly resembling someone who had just eaten a roast chicken in a dream.
Everyone could only sigh in admiration.
Later on, Lin Heng continued to display his talents. If the body had any wounds, he would even use needle and thread to stitch them up.
Su Xueer was initially a bit scared, but after watching Lin Heng turn the corpses over and over, she felt it wasn't that big of a deal.
She recalled a sentence she once read in a book:
However one dies, at least when they depart, they can retain a shred of dignity.
This saying seemed to perfectly describe someone like Lin Heng.
The audience in the livestream was greatly impressed by Lin Heng's responsibility.
Suddenly!
"Wait a minute! Look quickly!"
At this moment, they seemed to have noticed something and gasped in unison.
It was unclear which viewer in the comments said it:
"Look quickly! That thing, that corpse, she—she moved!?"
Whoosh!!!
The audience in the livestream instantly lost their composure.
Through the livestream camera, they could clearly see, in a corner unnoticed by both Lin Heng and Su Xueer...
A corpse had moved!!
