"I would like to ask you about your niece, Tian Yan."
Cai Wenlong went straight to the point, Tian Lan's expression was clearly startled, and immediately she fell into a state of grief.
I allowed her to abate her spirits, causing Tian Lan's expression to change from that of a strong lady to one of grief, and she slowly sighed.
"My niece has already been dead for more than four years. Why did she suddenly ask about this?"
We looked at each other and asked Tian Lan a little apologetically: "Then, may I ask how did you deal with the remains after your niece passed away?"
Tian Lan was slightly angry when she heard this. She frowned and said: "How did you deal with my niece's corpse? What does it have to do with you? This shouldn't be what you want to ask, right?"
It was inevitable that our own niece would die in such a way. We immediately felt that our way of speaking wasn't right, so we quickly apologized and switched to another way, saying:
"Maybe something happened to your niece's body, so I came here to check with you. If it's convenient, can you tell me? I'm sorry for the intrusion."
After half a day of hard work, Tian Lan's expression finally calmed down a little, and said: "After I studied it and died, my corpse was not cremated, and it was left at the Xuan He Mountain funeral parlour."
Upon hearing this, the three of us looked at each other and nodded.
Cai Wenlong hesitated for a while before he asked, "Are your niece's corpse still lying there?"
"Impossible." Tian Lan stood up from her chair with excitement, looked at us, and said: "I have always been reluctant to burn the research corpses, so I deliberately spent a large amount of money to preserve them with liquid nitrogen."
While talking, Tian Lan took out her phone and made a call to funeral parlour, then used a questioning gaze to look at us and said:
"Are you sure it's Asir?"
Cai Wenlong did not speak anymore, and revealed his identity card. Tian Lan nodded, although she had never seen anyone this close, she had still heard of Cai Wenlong's name.
"We suspect that there might be a body lost here. If it's convenient, can you bring us to the funeral parlour to take a look?"
Tian Lan said that he committed a crime, picked up her bag and let us go with her.
Outside the door, her assistant came in with a cup of hot coffee.
The assistant was obviously a little scared when she saw the look in Tian Lan's eyes. Tian Lan just rolled his eyes at her coldly and walked out in big strides.
The three of us followed behind her. Tian Lan got into a S600 and left us to follow her in the car.
The speed was extremely fast, luckily we had a guide in the car, otherwise we would have lost it.
The Xuan He Mountain funeral parlour was said to be the highest ranked funeral parlour in the entire city.
If one did not know that this was the funeral parlour, one would have the feeling that it was a high-class building from the outside.
Tian Lan told us that the reason she chose this funeral parlour was because there was a business called Body Preservation.
The body was frozen in a transparent liquid nitrogen storage tank. This method of preserving the corpse was much more advanced than that of storing it in an icebox. Moreover, the corpse would not be damaged by the passage of time.
was a rich man, he didn't need to worry about this at all.
Tian Lan called the manager of the funeral parlour over, she wanted to see her niece's corpse.
But at this time, the manager of the funeral parlour started to stutter, saying that it might not be convenient today, that the funeral parlour was doing management work, and told Tian Lan to come back in a few days.
Tian Lan became anxious all of a sudden and said with her hands on her waist:
"Why, if I want to see my own niece, I have to make arrangements for the next day."
"Ms. Tian, this …" The funeral parlour staff pretended to have a helpless expression and tried to resist.
In the end, Cai Wenlong took out his ID and said that he wanted to investigate and make preparations. He was hesitating and hesitating like this, could it be that something was wrong?
The funeral parlour staff members had no other choice. With a "plop" sound, they kneeled in front of Tian Lan and kowtowed a few times.
We understand now, Tian Yan's body must have been lost.
The staff member from the funeral parlour explained, "We really don't know what happened. A few days ago, we lost a corpse and we were trying our best to recover it."
When Tian Lan heard this grievous news, her tears could not help but drop.
"I'll hand my niece over to you. Throw over a hundred thousand yuan here every year, and you'll be responsible for her. You won't even notify me if she loses her body …"
funeral parlour was indeed an unorthodox method of doing things. Anyone who could store corpses here all had power and influence.
In other words, if he lost the corpse, this funeral parlour would probably not be able to continue.
I reckon these people do not dare to tell this to Tian Lan, that's the reason.
But how long could this last? The management of funeral parlour was too bold.
Tian Lan told them to open the spirit hall for the corpses, and we saw that the transparent liquid nitrogen containers for the corpses were empty.
Tian Lan could not help but cry bitterly while holding onto the container.
We asked the staff of the funeral parlour how long the corpse was missing.
That staff member faltered. He had lost a few days just because he said so.
Upon hearing this, I coldly laughed and said, "I'm afraid I've already lost them for more than a month."
It was a good time to speculate, the fact that Tian Yan could transform from a corpse to a warm zombie was definitely not something that could be done in a few days.
From raising corpses to refining them, it would take at least several months to several years.
The longer the corpse was kept, the greater the strength and effect.
"This …"
The members of the funeral parlour did not dare say anything.
Cai Wenlong coldly snorted. "You can remain silent, but every single word you say will become the evidence in front of the court. You'd better consider it carefully."
This person had never experienced such a scare before, so he immediately became terrified and said:
It's none of my business, my boss told me to say so. If the family members of the deceased come, then tell them that they accidentally lost the body and lost it for a few days. They even said that the family members of the deceased haven't been here for several years, so it's fine even if they lose it.
Hearing that, Tian Lan kicked the worker, and cried out:
"You all … This is your attitude, and this is my niece's only thought left to me. Are you really just going to do this? "
Cai Wenlong told the staff to leave first and called their boss out.
I turned my head to look at his expression and discovered that something was wrong. I pulled him to the side and Cai Wenlong shook his head:
"I think this Tian Lan might have a problem as well."
