Folk customs begin with the entire funeral procession

Chapter 34 Class D Investigator

"Chen Miao, this is Chen Guokun, who shares your surname. He is the investigator from the Emergency Management Bureau that I mentioned to you."

Zhong Cai explained to Chen Miao.

Looking at the stern-faced middle-aged man in front of him, Chen Miao nodded.

"Hello, I am Chen Miao, a funeral director at Tianmen Funeral Home."

Upon hearing the words "Tianmen Funeral Home," Chen Guokun asked, "Was it the message you left for Tang Rui?"

"Yes, I'm afraid something might happen."

Chen Miao offered an explanation.

Chen Guokun nodded, then looked at Zhong Cai.

"What happened this time?"

Zhong Cai recounted everything he had seen and heard from beginning to end, including the Happiness Community, the funeral home, and the jar in the secret room.

Upon hearing the name of Xingfu Residential Area, Chen Guokun immediately went outside and instructed the people who had come with him, "Have someone go to Xingfu Residential Area."

Chen Guokun returned only after his men started contacting other people.

“Currently, this incident hasn’t had a significant impact outside of Xingfu Community, but since it involves casualties, you two still need to come with me.”

When Chen Guokun said this, he was looking at Chen Miao.

"no problem."

Zhong Cai agreed and explained to Chen Miao, "It's a routine procedure. You can also go through the necessary procedures this time. If anything happens in the future, you can contact Captain Chen directly."

Upon hearing this, Chen Guokun glanced at Zhong Cai.

These folk "craftsmen," after being registered with the Emergency Management Bureau, are mostly assigned to the Emergency Management Bureau of the corresponding region.

However, if an investigator under the Emergency Management Bureau values ​​and knows this person well, then that person can be directly assigned to the investigator's jurisdiction.

Thus, everything this person did was strongly related to this emergency management bureau investigator.

The investigator will receive a corresponding contribution if this person helps the Emergency Management Agency solve the problem.

However, if this person causes any negative impact or endangers public safety, the investigators will also be punished.

It can be said that one is prosperous and both are prosperous, and one is deprived of both.

Zhong Cai meant that he wanted Chen Miao to be registered under Chen Guokun's name.

However, Chen Guokun did not mean that.

Although Zhong Cai and he were familiar with each other, their relationship was not to the point where he would respond to every word Zhong Cai said.

What's more, Chen Miao is so young!
Being young means lack of experience, restlessness, and impulsiveness.

Chen Guokun prefers to deal with people like Zhong Cai, even if they don't bring him any credit, at least they won't implicate him.

"Then let's go, someone will take over things here."

Zhong Cai nodded and walked out of the shop with Chen Miao.

Just as Chen Miao was walking towards his car, a hand pressed down on his shoulder.

Feeling the strength of that hand, Chen Miao turned around and looked at Chen Guokun.

"Mr. Chen, please get in our car."

Chen Guokun said expressionlessly.

Chen Miao met his gaze and then nodded.

Soon, Chen Miao and Zhong Cai were pulled into an area behind the Tianmen County Police Station, and the two were separated and taken to two different rooms.

Fortunately, it wasn't an interrogation room, and there was tea.

About ten minutes later, Chen Guokun walked in and sat down opposite Chen Miao.

As he flipped through the book "If Your Eyes Deceive You" that Chen Miao carried with him, he asked Chen Miao to recount what had happened.

"...So, before this, there were paranormal events at Tianmen Funeral Home, and the last cold storage manager died because of a paranormal event?"

Chen Guokun asked.

"should be."

Do you think that has anything to do with Zhong Fa?

Chen Guokun looked at Chen Miao and continued to ask questions.

"I don't know about Lao Wang's matter, but the twins were probably Zhong Fa's doing."

What are the criteria for this judgment?

“I saw Zhong Fa when I was at the twins’ house. Not long after that, problems arose with the twins’ bodies in the museum. If it weren’t for what happened today, I probably wouldn’t have connected the twins’ situation with Zhong Fa,” Chen Miao said slowly.

"So, without concrete evidence, these are just your subjective guesses?"

Chen Miao glanced at Chen Guokun and nodded.

"Correct."

"Okay, I know."

After Chen Guokun wrote something down in his notebook, he suddenly asked another question.

"Could you explain why you were able to detect the problem with Li Shilei's body earlier, but not with Qian Xiaomei's body?"

“If you have this ability, I believe the previous cold storage manager wouldn’t have died.”

Chen Miao frowned.

"You mean, I deliberately killed Old Wang?"

Chen Guokun looked at Chen Miao and said, "No, I just want to answer my own question. That day, Wang Tao asked you to help guard the cold storage, and you agreed, but you didn't actually go."

"why?"

Chen Miao remained silent. Once again, Chen Miao realized that people were more difficult to deal with than ghosts.

"That time with Lao Wang was the first time I used my ability. Before that, I never knew that my ability was real. It wasn't until after Lao Wang died that the curator asked me to guard the cold storage."

"Because I discovered something unusual in the cold storage, I instinctively used my methods, which happened to solve Qian Xiaomei's problem."

"Having learned from the previous experience, I paid much more attention to things at the museum, especially the bodies in the cold storage. So after discovering the problem with the twins' bodies, I sent Tang Rui away and resolved the issue with the bodies."

"There is no conflict between me and Lao Wang. You can ask anyone in the museum about that."

Chen Miao looked at Chen Guokun quietly.

Chen Guokun put down the notebook and pen he was taking notes in, handed the book back to Chen Miao, and extended his hand.

"This matter ends here for now. If there are any further issues, we will need your cooperation."

"Thank you for your contributions to Tianmen County. If you encounter any problems that cannot be solved in the secular world, you can come to me or any investigator from the Emergency Management Bureau. Within our authority, we can help you resolve some unnecessary troubles."

Chen Miao was taken aback for a moment, then stood up and shook hands with Chen Guokun.

"Can I go?"

"Sure, this is my business card."

Chen Miao took the business card, which had only a few lines of text written on it.

Emergency Management Bureau

Name: Chen Guokun

[Job Rank: Level D Investigator]

Contact number: 138****5678

After stuffing the business card into his pocket, Chen Miao took the book and the peach wood sword blank, turned around and left.

After Chen Miao left, a person walked in through the door.

"no problem?"

Chen Guokun looked at Tong Yu and asked.

"No, when he spoke, his aura was yellow, indicating he was wary of you, but it didn't fluctuate or change."

Nodding, Chen Guokun said no more.

His colleague wasn't very good at fighting, but he trusted people, whether they were alive or dead.

"Such a promising talent, aren't you going to add him to your own team?"

Chen Guokun shook his head.

"They're still too young."

Tong Yu shrugged and said no more.

……

The other end.

Chen Miao took a taxi back to the vicinity of Zhong Fa's shop and drove his car back to the funeral home.

Before he could catch his breath, his uncle called.
