Chapter Nine This chapter is wonderful(2/5)

Karen looked at Uncle Mason, whose neck was red with anger. He understood quite well, because his uncle explained what the weakness of the petty bourgeoisie was.

This is not a mockery, it may sound like a mockery, but in the final analysis it is the inconsistency in butts caused by the class of life.

After walking down a not very long aisle, Karen and others finally arrived at the "incineration room" pushing the stretcher cart.

There are three incinerators in the incineration room, but only one is operating.

Outside the glass window, Karen saw a man with messy hair and unkempt beard sitting on the ground.

And at this time,

The incinerator that was originally operating also stopped.

A grey-haired but energetic worker opened the door and shouted to the man:

"Sir, please come and pick up your wife."

Immediately, the old worker saw Mason, smiled on his face, waved and said hello:

"Hi, Mason."

"Old Darcy!"

Uncle Mason stepped forward and handed old Darcy a cigarette.

"How many are there today?" Old Darcy asked while lighting his cigarette.

Mason made the "two" sign.

"Oh, God have mercy on you." Old Darcy smiled happily.

Of course he knew how much loss cremation would mean to the Immelais family.

In fact, a loss is not a loss, but the original burial can make more profits. After this part of the profits that could have been made is lost, it becomes a "loss".

"Sir, please come and pick up your wife." Old Darcy blew out a smoke ring and urged again.

The man raised his head in confusion, then stood up silently, but when he saw the incinerator inside the glass window, he leaned his back against the wall again, as if resisting everything in front of him.

yes,

Who can accept all of a sudden that the person beside them is turned into a pile of ashes?

Karen heard Uncle Mason ask old Darcy in a low voice: "What's the matter?"

Old Darcy took a puff of cigarette, shook his head slightly with disdain, and responded in a low voice:

"If I don't give a tip, I won't buy the urn from the club, haha."

If the customer gives a tip or purchases our "merchandise",

Naturally, you will enjoy some special treatment.

For example, if you are scared or uncomfortable, the incinerator Old Darcy will help you put the ashes into the urn and hand them to you.

Of course, some people want to pick up the ashes of their loved ones themselves, so Old Darcy will help you carefully break the bones into pieces for you to store.

The man didn't know if he had no money or if he really didn't understand this. His eyes were filled with confusion and confusion.

Seeing his stupidity, old Darcy said disdainfully: "He is still a professor of psychology, but he doesn't even understand this."

Um?

This position caught Karen's attention.

By chance, I met a colleague.

Karen took the initiative to step forward, looked at the man, and whispered:

"You should go pick up your wife now."

"I...I..." The man's hands were trembling.

It can be seen that he is engaged in a fierce psychological struggle.

In fact, if you have a good relationship and have been living together, after the death of a loved one, your body or ashes will not feel as scary as watching a ghost movie. Instead, you will feel... very ordinary.

But some people have special emotions and psychology. For example, Karen once received a patient in his previous life. He and his wife were very much in love, but he chose to go into the delivery room to accompany his wife when she was giving birth. This was a very loving move, but

...Since then, he has been left with a serious psychological shadow. In the end, he had to choose to divorce his wife. After that, it became so serious that he would tremble and fear when he saw women and children.

"Are you still afraid of your wife?" Old Darcy urged, "Hurry up, there is still a queue."

"I...I'm not..." There was a look of struggle and self-blame on the man's face. Apparently, Old Darcy's words "You are still afraid of your wife" made this husband feel deeply guilty and self-blame.

Mentally, it is actually divided into "physiological" and "psychological". "Psychological" is actually easy to overcome, but "physiological" is really difficult to deal with.

"I'm not... not afraid of her... but... but me..."

Karen sighed,

reach out,

He patted the man on the shoulder.

OK,

For the sake of my colleagues.

Karen turned around and walked up to Mason:

"Uncle, we are still in a hurry to go home. Let me help him collect his ashes."

When old Darcy heard this, he felt a little unhappy and said in a nonchalant manner:

"Your nephew is so kind."

There was no praise in his tone.

Mason shrugged and said, "Old Darcy, I'm still in a hurry to go home. If I get back late, Mary will blame me again."

"Okay, okay, okay."

Old Darcy gave up,

"You push one of the bodies up first, and I'll pick them up."

Ron pushed Mr. Moissan in. Karen hesitated for a moment, then helped Ron carry Mr. Moissan to the incinerator's pushing platform.

Although Mr. Moissan “appeared” last night,

Expressed his obsession with not being cremated;

But Karen couldn't help him. Even if the last "Karen" left him 6,000 rupees, it was enough to buy a coffin at the cost price, but what about the cost of burial in the cemetery?

The most important thing is... what reasons and qualifications does he have to ask the family to give extra treatment to an ordinary customer?

Grandpa is still alive,

Even if grandpa is gone, uncle is still there.

It's not his turn to be the leader of this family... Well, it's not his turn to be the loser either.

After doing this, Karen walked over to Old Darcy and watched Old Darcy pulling the ashes with an iron hook.

Old Darcy turned his head and glanced at Karen standing behind him.

asked:

"Is it your first time?"

"Um."

"Haven't seen it before?"

"No."

"What a young master." Old Darcy teased.

The male of the Immelais family saw the ashes for the first time.

Karen pointed to a pile of bones on the ground and asked, "Shouldn't it be ashes?"

Karen bit hard on the word "ash".

In his impression, after cremation, the ashes should be white and flour-like.

But what I saw in front of me was a pile of bone fragments. There was some ash, but the majority of them were bone fragments, and they were quite large.

Old Darcy said doubtfully: "That's it."

"Oh, that's it."

Karen suddenly realized that the film and television works in his previous life had deceived him.

At this time, seeing Old Darcy throwing the empty cigarette butt on the ground, Karen touched his pocket, took out the pack of cigarettes that Paul had given him, pulled out one, and handed it to Old Darcy.

Old Darcy took the cigarette,

She looks much better,

But he still did not forget to remind:

"That's not what good people do."
To be continued...
