Chapter 512 [Domain - First Gate] Cemetery Log
The three of them couldn't leave for the time being, so they decided to use this time to search the cabin.
Even without a door, we might still find some clues.
The main issue is that the grave keeper patting me on the shoulder is too eerie, giving me the creeps and leaving me wondering what its purpose is.
They acted quickly.
They first touched the wall through which the ghost had entered, but nothing unusual happened.
As time ticked by, Bai Shaohua's complexion grew increasingly worse.
They searched every possible hiding place, even trying to find a mechanism on the bookshelves, but it turned out to be unnecessary.
Finally, their gaze fell upon the drawer where Bai Shaohua had previously hidden.
"Is it necessary to look?" Bai Shaohua didn't want to get close: "If there were a hidden door there, I would have discovered it long ago."
"Door?"
Xu Sandao smiled and said, "I think there's no door here at all."
"Of course I'm not saying your speculation is wrong—the process makes a lot of sense, but the space here is different from reality. I think we need to think outside the box."
"So what are you looking for?"
Bai Shaohua raised his eyebrows.
“A tomb keeper should have this,” Xu Sandao said, “but I didn’t see it here.”
"Work Log".
Bai Shaohua glanced at him thoughtfully, without asking why Xu Sandao knew so much about the cemetery.
Without a doubt, this person must have frequented the cemetery quite a bit before.
Of course, he was the same.
In the pocket of a moldy coat, Xu Sandao found a thin booklet.
There was no excitement on his face; instead, he opened the book and began to read it carefully.
【June 2】
[Number of new burials today: 3]
[Remaining burial plots: 12]
【Remark:】
For the past few nights, I've been hearing footsteps in the cemetery.
But when I went out on patrol, I couldn't find anyone walking around.
[It's probably kids from the neighboring village causing trouble again... I should have a serious talk with their parents when I'm on vacation.]

【Remark:】
Do I always hear someone breathing in my ear when I dream at night?
I opened my eyes, and vaguely saw a man's face close to my ear, his mouth opening and closing, but I couldn't hear anything.
Have you been spending too much time in such unclean places?

【June 2】
Who called the funeral troupe? And there are even opera performers.
I keep dreaming that someone asks me, "Where do I live?"
I woke up with a sour feeling in my heart, and I wanted to go back to my hometown.

[Number of new burials today: 0]
[Remaining burial plots: 7]
【Remark:】
[A day without any major achievements or setbacks.]
[I still don't have time to go out. More and more strange things are happening in the park. Every day around noon, we can hear strange noises that last for ten minutes.]
[It made a loud crashing sound, like dishes being smashed.]
I suspect there's something wrong with the woman who was just buried in Zone 2. Several times I've seen a red bowl in front of her grave, only to have it disappear in the blink of an eye.
The woman's death was quite gruesome.
However, with one month left before the cemetery is to be demolished, it's finally coming to an end.
After I've dealt with these graves, I'll go home immediately.

(The handwriting is extremely messy, as if the writer was in a panic when writing it.)
[Damn it, who's knocking on my door in the middle of the night?!]
[I've been typing for about ten minutes!]
[But the problem is, there's no one outside the door! I looked through the crack in the door, and I couldn't see any feet at all!]
(Several lines were left blank)
The knocking stopped...
[Whoever it was, ghost or human, they're probably all gone now.]
【.....etc.】
What was that sound?
[Giggle, giggle...]
"Holy crap...those are kids, a boy and a girl, laughing outside!"
They left a strangled corpse at my doorstep!

I put the white cane in the coffin.

They've started knocking on my door again.
It wasn't just those two children.

There is no more content after that.
After a moment of silence, Liu Zi murmured, "Who was buried on the last day...?"
The answer is obvious.
“The gravedigger himself.” Xu Sandao lowered his eyes, looking at the date on the log.
The timeline is very clear.
On March 27, two child ghosts appeared and left a corpse at the gravedigger's door, which was the person who was buried on March 28.
That person occupied the last spot in the cemetery.
He was blind, because the note said to put the "blind cane" in the coffin.
There's a 99% chance it's the blind ghost from room 309.
So most of the strange things mentioned here are caused by those core ghosts.
After all, most interns don't have the tendency to harm people; they can only transform from ghosts into new ghosts after being killed by a ghost.
The only question is who those two children who left behind the bodies were?
“I also saw a red bowl on a grave next to the alley outside the elevator,” Bai Shaohua reminded him. “That belongs to a female ghost from the second floor.”
That is, the neurotic woman in the couple.
Xu Sandao immediately recalled his experience in room 2013.
The woman's head floated in mid-air, guarding the head of the mourning ghost.
Be filial to the ghost...
His gaze shifted to the February 26th entry in the log, where the words "funeral team" appeared, and a strange feeling stirred within him.
Perhaps the ghost in mourning clothes was among them, and may have been alive at that time.
Putting that aside, it's quite obvious that on March 28th, a group of ghosts appeared, the gravedigger was killed, and the next day he also became a ghost to bury his own body.
This seems to have cleared up some of the confusion, but it also feels like it hasn't explained things clearly.
The relationships between these ghosts are mysterious; they seem to have countless connections, but in the end, they all return to this cemetery.
The three of them put the booklet back in their pockets and looked at the elevator, which was descending from the 3rd floor.
Back in the lobby, time to go to the restaurant?
They confirmed over the walkie-talkie that Du Tingfeng had taken advantage of the opportunity to slip to the second floor, where the tomb guardian had already left, and that he was currently safe.
"Let's go back and find Zhou Liang."
Xu Sandao said, "Deliver the goods first, then pay. Be careful."
Go back to the 3rd floor.
As if hearing their footsteps, a piece of white paper was slowly handed out to the door of room 3010.
Have you found it?
"Hmm. Zhou Liang, home address, 12th Street, Daping City..." Bai Shaohua stopped reading halfway through, just to prove that they had obtained the document.
【Give me.】
"Give us your other eye first."
There was silence over there for a while.
Soon after, a round eyeball was pushed out, and Liu Zi immediately picked it up and winked at Xu Sandao.
"Zhou Liang, we'll give you the documents once the others come out," Xu Sandao said, understanding.
He stood guard at the door, watching Liu Zi stuff his two eyeballs into the crack of room 309.
