54: Chapter 54 Five-Star Good Citizen
The tall, thin man licked his dry lips. Looking at the beautiful woman on the cart with her eyes wide open, his heart was pounding a bit.
Setting aside whether it was illegal or not, just being stared at by a pair of eyes that refused to close even in death made him feel terrified.
"Illegal my ass! Did we dispose of the body?" the short, stout man snorted coldly.
"No."
"Then isn't that right? We're just body movers. We don't know what happens to the body in the end, so how can it be illegal for us!"
"That actually sounds like it makes sense."
The tall, thin man thought for a moment and then quickly nodded, looking thoughtful.
"It's good that you understand! Hurry up! If we get caught later, I'll twist your head off!"
The two of them cursed and grumbled all the way.
The small cart creaked loudly as it was pushed along.
After passing the man with a mustache, they came to a silver minivan.
"Brother, everything's settled! Let's get moving."
They saw the calm young man in sunglasses ahead and immediately broke into smiles.
Once the body was delivered, they'd get a million yuan!
They didn't even know how long that money would last them!
Naturally, they were overjoyed.
Hearing this, the young man in sunglasses nodded faintly.
"Hard work. Go on, put the body in the car. The money will naturally be deposited into your cards."
This...
He even wanted them to move it in themselves?
Are buyers who need favors these days all so ill-tempered?
However, at the thought of the money the other party was giving them, the resentment in their hearts quickly faded.
But these two probably hadn't noticed that the young man sitting in the driver's seat looked somewhat similar to the person they had seen in the Morgue earlier.
"Hey! Wait a minute."
The tall, thin guy's brow twitched slightly as if he had remembered something.
"Brother, don't you think the person in the driver's seat looks like someone we've seen before?"
"Stop talking nonsense and give me a hand. Who knows that guy? You must not be fully awake, talking such rubbish."
"Hurry up and get the body in, then we can finish work and go home. You're always so full of trouble!"
"Haven't you had enough of this miserable life?"
The short, stout man curled his lip and struggled to pick up the body to put it in the van.
For some reason, a dead person's body just felt different in weight. He had to exert quite a bit of effort to lift her up.
Hearing this, the tall, thin guy glanced at Lin Heng in the driver's seat again, his brow furrowed deeply in thought.
Suddenly!
His eyes widened instantly.
"Holy crap!!"
"Holy crap!"
With a smack, the short, stout man slapped the guy.
"What the hell are you screaming for?"
"You scared the life out of me!"
The tall, thin guy clutched his face, but he didn't seem to feel the pain at all.
He pointed blankly at Lin Heng in the driver's seat, trembling as he stammered:
"Brother, don't you think... this guy looks a bit like the one we met in the Morgue??"
"What kind of nonsense are you talking?"
He cursed.
The short, stout guy quickly turned his head to look at Lin Heng.
By now, Lin Heng had taken off his sunglasses, his expression unreadable.
However, it was this familiar face that made the two body snatchers gasp instantly.
What the hell...
Had they seen a ghost?
How could he look exactly the same?
Even the clothes on his body were identical.
This... this was too damn terrifying!
The short, stout man felt his heart racing with fear.
Could it be that he had touched something unclean and was being haunted??
But this was clearly the 21st century; natural science had long since reached its peak.
Even equipment worth tens of billions hadn't been able to detect paranormal phenomena, let alone them.
Yet the scene before them was unbelievable!
At that moment, something trembling suddenly touched the two of them.
And this thing seemed to appear right behind them.
Suddenly!
The two of them seemed to realize something.
Behind them...
Wasn't that... the female corpse they were moving!!
In an instant, a terrifying chill rose from the soles of their feet and shot straight to the crowns of their heads. The cold air almost burst from their bodies!
Their souls were about to leap out.
The hair on their bodies stood on end and refused to go down.
Swallowing hard.
The two of them quickly turned around, trembling.
In the next second, they saw that woman's face, smiling beautifully, right next to their own.
If it were some other horrific thing, it might have been better, but it was precisely this face with a smile that looked no different from an ordinary person's that made their inner fear reach its peak in an instant!!
Aaaah!!
The two of them screamed and then, as if they had lost their breath, quickly collapsed to the ground.
Lin Heng saw all this and simply shook his head faintly.
Coming to the side of the female corpse, Lin Heng quickly tapped her pressure points, slowly relaxing her muscles.
Just as he finished, a sudden sound of footsteps came from the surroundings.
This was followed by the sound of flashing lights.
Several police officers in uniform quickly approached Lin Heng.
"Drop what's in your... hands behind your head, squat down!"
"Lean against the van behind you!"
"Don't move, you're surrounded!"
Someone quickly stepped forward and handcuffed Lin Heng's hands.
In the dark, it was hard to distinguish his features, but when the officer got closer, the one handcuffing Lin Heng realized it was actually this guy...
For a moment, his face darkened, and he didn't know what to say.
"What's the situation? Did you find the body thieves?"
"Those sons of bitches, doing something so immoral! Bastards!"
Soon, the Director came over, cursing.
Normally, a body theft case wouldn't require such a high-ranking figure to appear, but the situation with this corpse was different. If he wasn't present and the body was lost, the entire leadership of their police station might be replaced.
As soon as he appeared, Director Zhou Xiang grumbled.
He quickly walked over and asked a young police officer.
But that young officer was now feeling a bit apprehensive and hesitant, smiling bitterly in his heart.
If I told you this person is Lin Heng, would it be a surprise or a shock?
"So it's you... you're the one who should..."
He was just about to say "damned thief" when Zhou Xiang suddenly noticed Lin Heng in handcuffs.
His brow twitched.
...you should be heavily rewarded, you Five-Star Good Citizen!
