Chapter 152 I, Tuberculosis Rabbit, a Born Mortician!

```

As for the purpose of this, it doesn't really serve much of one, it simply allows the deceased to be buried or sent to the cremation furnace with a bit more dignity.

Instead of being buried as a pile of minced meat.

That would be too unsightly.

Tuberculosis Rabbit was a born mortician, without any formal education, yet possessed an innate artistic sense when it came to stitching bodies back together.

A regular mortician would at most clean the body of the deceased, change their clothes, and maybe apply some makeup.

That's pretty much the limit.

But the bodies that passed through Tuberculosis Rabbit's hands, no matter how mangled, even if only a fingernail remained, could be restored to perfection.

That's skill.

According to Tuberculosis Rabbit, this was the work of top-tier, all-around rare talent.

Although it didn't seem like a proper job, it was indeed quite rare, and not low on profit.

As for Tie Chui and Jiaye, these siblings, it was quite an accomplishment for them to not have turned to illegal activities before the descent of later ages, let alone set up their own stall, which already showed great capability.

"It's not like we haven't done anything illegal..."

Jiaye, feeling cold, hugged her knees to her chest while sitting in front of the bonfire, the howling of the wind making her speak in a low voice, "I once took over a phone number, and its previous owner was involved in compensated dating."

"She probably washed her hands off the business and got out, canceling the phone number without telling her regular clients." Find adventures at empire

"After taking over that number, I'd get several calls a day asking if I was taking clients for the day. At first, I was angry, feeling harassed, but then I came to realize that it might not be a bad thing."

"Hmm?"

Chen Yi lightly raised his eyebrows and put a skewer of grilled pork belly into his mouth, speaking in surprise, "You became a middleman? Contacting clients on one hand and connecting them with service providers on the other and taking a cut?"

He had never thought Jiaye would have such a story.

"To be honest, the thought did cross my mind at the time."

Jiaye leaned on Tie Chui's arm, looked up into Chen Yi's eyes, a bit embarrassed, "Yi, don't laugh at me, okay? I was so poor at that time, I didn't care if it was illegal as long as it made money."

"But then I looked into it."

"It counts as organizing prostitution, a crime that comes with a minimum of five years in prison. And I did some research on this business, only to find that the middlemen aren't just taking a cut for nothing."

"They need to acquire clients, ensure the girl's safety when clients are difficult, seek compensation afterward, and they need connections; it's not a business just anyone can get into."

"It seemed too difficult, so I gave up on that idea."

"Later, I found a girl new to compensated dating who didn't have many clients. I sold her the phone number for 10,000 yuan."

"She even came back specifically to thank me a year later, saying that we had helped her a lot. Once, during the New Year, she brought gifts to pay us a visit, saying we were the most significant benefactor she met when she entered the business."

"She's a... good person."

And Tie Chui, who had been quietly eating next to her, put down his skewers, looked at Chen Yi with a serious expression, and with a deep voice gave a thumbs-up, "That girl... she's a good person, she gave me... a bottle of liquor and a pack of cigarettes."

"Respect... me a lot."

Perhaps in Tie Chui's mind, anyone who gave him cigarettes was a good person.

"I see."

Chen Yi, with a chuckle, placed the empty skewer stick aside and said with a laugh, "That's quite interesting, I definitely wouldn't have thought of that."

"What would you do with a phone number like that, Yi?"

But the role he was playing was of a newbie who even had to search online for how to clean up blood—such a greenhorn wouldn't stand a chance at cleaning up a crime scene properly.

Four minutes was just too little time!

In that time frame, you had to choose between cleaning up DNA and blood, or dismembering the body, not both. There simply wasn't enough time.

If he had been given an hour.

He could make the body disappear from this world without a trace, never to be found by anyone.

With only 4 minutes, the only place he could hide the body was inside the house, with no time for intricate disposal, let alone transporting the body out of the house.

"Ding, you have 3 more uses of your Life Theater Map Access Pass. Would you like to enter again?"

Standing in the white space, Tuberculosis Rabbit gazed at the images on the wall that depicted his experiences within the map, contemplating internally how to better conceal the body and clear himself of criminal suspicion.

Yi had already told him that the reward for completing the hidden tasks was substantial, while merely perfect performance in the role would only grant a globally unique character action reward.

He could have temporarily hidden the body inside the water heater, as according to Yi's experience, it was a spot that the police were unlikely to discover immediately.

But just as he was about to stuff the body into the water heater.

A panel suddenly popped up in front of him.

"Ding, the previous player who received a perfect evaluation had hidden a body in the water heater; this spot is no longer an overlooked spot and the body hidden here will be discovered immediately."

The hiding place that the last perfectly performing player used could no longer be utilized by the next player entering, an unknown piece of information to them.

Which also meant that the plan he and Yi had discussed was thoroughly ruined.

Originally, he had planned to follow Yi's method, clean up the traces in the house, and then hide the body in the water heater before going to the police station to play the part of someone with split personality disorder.

But since he couldn't hide the body in the water heater, he had no choice but to chop up the body and hide it elsewhere, which was completely impossible to do within a 4-minute time frame.

The most fatal part was.

After failing to leave the map, he wouldn't return to reality but would stay in this white space, with only the option to re-enter the map available.

Meaning he couldn't discuss midway with Yi.

And he must achieve a high enough performance perfection in the following attempts, or he would risk losing a random half of his props.

The biggest challenge now was figuring out how to properly conceal the body within the 4-minute timeframe.

Tuberculosis Rabbit stared at the scenes flashing across the wall, his brow furrowed in deep thought.

The next second—

A glint of light suddenly appeared in his eyes.

Wait?

What was his goal? To complete the hidden task, clear the criminal suspicion, and receive the hidden reward!

But to clear the criminal suspicion, it wasn't the only method to hide the body and then pretend to have a split personality!

Could he stage a home invasion instead?

No need to clean up any blood or deal with the body at all.

Some burglar could have broken in, killed his wife, left him gravely injured—that would make sense, right?

If he became the victim, he could naturally clear the criminal suspicion, right?
