Although it is summer now, a chilly feeling permeates every player's heart.

The temperature in the cemetery seemed to have dropped by a few degrees.

Chen Mu noticed that next to the names of the seven players, there was another name with an empty space on it.

【Zhang Beiyan】

Who is this? There shouldn't be anyone like this among the players, so why is her name also on the urn?

At this moment, Chen Mu suddenly felt a figure appear behind him.

The other players were also focused on the name and didn't notice what was happening behind them.

Chen Mu was the first to notice it, and he turned around suddenly.

Behind several players stood a man with a sullen face!

This person was none other than Old Man Wu.

"You guys! Who asked you to come here?!"

Old Man Wu started to curse Chen Mu. Chen Mu noticed that he was holding an urn in his hand.

The female forensic doctor reacted quickly. She immediately put on a sweet smile and said in a coquettish tone:

"Uncle, we've cleaned the yard. We thought it would be too tiring for you to clean it alone, so we came to see if there's anyone who can help you."

Don't hit a smiling person. When facing the girl's coquettishness, although Old Man Wu's face was still ashen, his tone softened a little.

"Okay, there's nothing for you to help with here. Don't come to the back mountain if you have nothing to do. Go back to the crematorium."

Old Man Wu pushed Chen Mu who was blocking his way away and placed the urn in his hand above the name of Zhang Beiyan.

Chen Mu understood that this Zhang Beiyan was the naked female corpse from last night.

Today we have Zhang Beiyan, but what about tomorrow? Will it be the turn of these players?

Driven away by Old Man Wu, Chen Mu and his companions had no choice but to return to the crematorium.

Apparently in order to prevent Chen Mu and his companions from running around, they were assigned other tasks in the next few hours.

Xiao Shi was assigned to the door and stood guard with the security guard.

Tian Shihan and the female forensic doctor were assigned to the cafeteria to help the cafeteria aunt.

As for Chen Mu, he was called over by the factory director and went to the director's office to serve as his temporary secretary.

The factory director's office is on the third floor and is furnished with a desk, a sofa, and a cabinet against the wall.

On the cabinet, there is a row of books on the top and a row of vases and tea sets on the bottom.

After Chen Mu arrived, the factory director gave him a stack of lists and asked him to compile a report on the crematorium's revenue over the past six months and make a table for him as soon as possible.

Chen Mu’s first reaction was: Is there such a good thing?

One of the best ways to uncover the truth about crematoriums is to understand their operations, which might reveal clues.

If the factory director hadn't offered it to him, Chen Mu would have even wanted to find an opportunity to steal one for himself.

Now, something so confidential can actually be checked on one's own initiative!

Of course Chen Mu would not refuse. He began to check carefully and do the accounting seriously.

As for the remaining players, they followed behind Old Man Wu, who monitored them.

The players who had originally gathered together were cleverly dispersed.

The crematorium became quiet again. If outsiders came in to check, they would see the old people leading the new ones, a harmonious working scene.

As time passed, night fell.

The second night at the crematorium was quietly approaching.

At dinner time, the players gathered in the cafeteria.

Thanks to the help of two players, tonight's meal became extra sumptuous.

It changed from one dish and one soup to four dishes and one soup.

But for Chen Mu, it was all the same, because three of the four dishes were meat dishes, and he could only eat one vegetarian dish.

"Meat is normal."

Tian Shihan sat next to Chen Mu and whispered to Chen Mu.

Chen Mu looked at her in surprise, not because the meat was normal, but what surprised Chen Mu even more was that Tian Shihan actually took the initiative to speak!

When we were in the desert before, we didn't say a word for days. Apart from "Take me to the ghost gate", we hardly took the initiative to communicate, let alone say nonsense like "Meat is normal".

Could it be that after being together for a long time, he started to become less aloof?

Even though Tian Shihan said the meat was normal, Chen Mu didn't pick up the chopsticks to eat it.

In the crematorium of the strange mission, there was a half-dead body in the mourning hall opposite, and eating meat in the cafeteria always felt weird.

Moreover, Chen Mu was afraid that he would get used to eating this kind of meat, and the thought of eating some abnormal meat next time would make him feel sick.

The dinner was very peaceful. The players sat at one table, and Old Man Wu, the security guard, and the cafeteria lady sat at another table.

Both parties ate quietly, occasionally chatting.

The scene looked strangely harmonious.

As for the factory director, he asked Chen Mu to deliver the food to his office and ate it directly in the office.

Chen Mu noticed that the factory director seemed very busy all the time.

In the afternoon, while Chen Mu was checking the bills, he did not forget to secretly observe the factory manager.

He found the factory director very busy, constantly on the phone, either soliciting investment or applying for funding.

Everything is so normal.

After dinner, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.

The crematorium is located in a remote area, without the vibrant nightlife of the city. By eight o'clock in the evening, it was already pitch black, as if it had entered the dead of night.

After chatting for a while, the players returned to their dormitories, waiting for the night watch.

Time passed minute by minute, Chen Mu stood by the window of the dormitory, looking at the scene in the mourning hall from afar.

At 9:30 in the evening, the lights in Old Man Wu's room were turned off. He always went to bed early.

The lights in the security room were off, and the security guard looked like he was asleep.

In the entire crematorium, there were only two candles lit on both sides of the mourning hall, emitting dark red light, which looked particularly strange and terrifying.

At nine fifty-five, Xiao Shi and the man with the watch left the dormitory and walked towards the mourning hall.

The man with the watch was a little nervous. Theoretically, they had drawn the earliest time period, which should be the safest.

But in this pitch-black night, there is no obvious difference between ten o'clock and two o'clock in the morning.

It’s all the same black, all the same silence and coldness!

Chen Mu stood in front of the dormitory window, watching the two figures disappear into the night.

For some reason, Chen Mu felt uneasy. Something bad was about to happen tonight.

Chen Mu walked to the table, picked up the balloon, and hung it in front of the window.

If the balloon falls over, it means something strange is happening.

Chen Mu did not give the balloon to Xiao Shi because for Xiao Shi, even if he detected something strange, the chance of escape was not high.

However, the teardrop-shaped ring on Chen Mu's finger disappeared.

He gave the ring to Xiaoshi!

"I hope I can return safely." Chen Mu said silently in his heart.
