I will never give in to Miss Death

I have thought about similar questions many times when I was still an uncle.

If a person dies, how do our relevant departments usually deal with the things he leaves behind?

At that time, I kept thinking, if a person like me who has no parents suddenly died in a rental house, and was not discovered until several days later by the housing management, who called the police, and the police came and took a look, and said, "Oh, homicide has been ruled out," and then they would call the police. After they go back, would these police officers help me deal with all the funeral arrangements?

Will my mobile phone number be cancelled? What will happen to my household registration ID card?

It was not until now, after experiencing these things personally, that I understood the answer to these questions, which is - no one will come to deal with it.

The mobile phone can be used normally, no one will care whether the person is dead or not, there is no problem with the bank card, and the ID card can continue to be used.

To put it bluntly... everyone is very busy. If someone here dies, please come and apply for cancellation of household registration yourself. The same goes for cancellation of ID card and mobile phone number. If you don't do it yourself, we are too lazy to pay attention to it, so just leave it alone.

However, from a legal point of view, as Yin Shiren's "brother", I have the obligation to cancel my household registration and ID card. Failure to do so in a timely manner will be illegal. If I do not cancel my household registration and obtain a death certificate and other documents to complete the relevant procedures, the body cannot be cremated.

But the problem now is that, because I signed the body donation agreement, my "body" is probably being used by the hospital for various research purposes. There is no need to cremate it, and there is no need to... cancel my account.

Ah... I'll deal with these things during my next vacation.

Or should I just ask Yin Xiamo to modify my identity again? And remove the brother-sister relationship between me and "Yin Shiren"?

"It's seven working days at the latest. For example, today is Monday, and five working days later is Saturday. So we push it back two days. Next Monday is five working days, and it will arrive at the latest on next Wednesday."

Facing my "innocent" question, the landlord Yang Kun patiently explained: "Of course, it usually won't be delayed that late. In most cases, I report it to the head office tonight, and the cleaning lady comes to clean the house tomorrow and confirms that there are no problems. The head office will approve the refund of the deposit, and then we can refund it in about three or four days. The seven days is just to reserve a buffer time for some emergencies."

"Oh……"

Finally figuring everything out, I gave the property manager a thankful look: "Thank you."

"You're welcome. As a girl, you should be careful when you are out there. Eat three meals a day on time, and don't stay up late or smoke or drink."

The housing manager sighed and said, "To be honest, two people have left our building this month, including your brother."

"Is that the big brother named Zhang on the fifth floor?"

"you know?"

"When I came here before, I talked to him before leaving. At that time, I felt that his face was not in good condition. His lips were very white and there was no blood at all."

I asked cautiously, "What's going on with him?"

"He...has liver problems, kidney problems, blood clots in his brain, high blood pressure, and multiple organ failure..."

As he spoke, as if remembering something, the housing manager lowered his voice and said, "I'm telling you this, don't use your brother's WeChat ID to say it in the group. If it gets out, my salary will be deducted."

I quickly shook my head: "I won't tell you."

"He has liver cancer, it's in the advanced stage, and he also has kidney failure and high blood pressure, but he has never taken care of himself."

The house manager sighed, walked out of the room, and put his hands on the handrail of the corridor outside. "We house managers often have to work night shifts. If we can't stand it, we go to the store to buy some roasted melon seeds and drink a bottle of wine. Even if we drink, we don't drink every night. But he is different. Every time he sees me on duty at night, he always asks me to drink with him. He drinks a lot of bottles. If I'm not on duty, he goes to a nearby bar or karaoke bar to dance until dawn. He doesn't rest well the next day. He either plays games or goes out to pick up girls."

"We work the night shift and take a nap after work, but he never sleeps. He drinks and smokes a lot every day. Just imagine the air quality in places like bars and karaoke halls. Can your liver and lungs be healthy if you are exposed to secondhand smoke all night?"

The house manager smiled bitterly and said, "He had stacked up all the sudden death buffs. I didn't dare to be so crazy. Now, even if I found it in time, it would be useless. He died immediately after being sent to the hospital."

I was silent for a moment: "Doesn't he have to go to work?"

"It seems this guy was reselling some gaming equipment online before. He made some money, but not much, maybe a few hundred thousand. He then stopped working and decided to play around for a few years."

The house manager said seriously: "Sister, you can't learn from him."

I blurted out: "Uncle, do you think I'm that kind of girl?"

Not to mention that girls now have a natural tendency to be clean, even as an uncle like "Yin Shiren" in the past, I am not interested in the drinking and disco culture that is popular among young people nowadays.

If I have that time late at night, I would rather play games or watch anime or movies at home.

"Haha, I can tell from your appearance and the way you dress that you're not."

The house manager smiled cheerfully: "You give me the feeling of a special... natural, pure, and kind girl."

Abbreviated as silly and sweet?

"Oh, by the way, I have a video here that I got from the police. It's a clip of the thief who stole your shoes being interrogated in the police station."

As if remembering something, the property manager took out his phone and said, "You can use your brother's WeChat ID now, right? I'll send you the video."

"..."

……

Walking down from the third floor, I found my bicycle which I had parked here.

In addition to the lobby used for receiving guests, the first floor of the Snail House Apartment has a neatly arranged parking area for electric vehicles with many charging ports. Each charging port corresponds to the room signed when renting the house, and the amount of electricity charged is directly included in the electricity bill.

Because the charging port is outside, there have always been cases of "stealing electricity" and "charging at the wrong location" in the apartment. For example, A's bus is parked at number 11 and B's is at number 12, and B's bus is parked at number 11, or he brings his friend back and parks the two cars there and plugs in the charging plugs. In this case, A has to bear the charging costs of B and his friend. If caught by the housing management, he will be fined.

As the only person in the building who uses a bicycle, I took a small spot without a charging port. The advantage is that I don’t have to take the risk of “electricity theft” like this.

"..."

In the corner of the lobby on the first floor, looking at the bicycle in front of me which was much taller than I remembered, I unlocked it with the key and tried to sit on it.

No, it's too high.

Sitting on the bicycle cushion, I tried to pedal backwards a few times, but found that it was too difficult for me to control this bicycle for adults with my short legs.

It’s not that you can’t drive it, it’s just more dangerous.

This mountain bike was bought when I first started working. It is a very low-end bicycle brand. The left handlebar can shift into 3 gears, and the right handlebar can shift into 7 gears. As an uncle, this bike is just right for me. I think boys and girls over 160cm tall can ride it, but people who are shorter won't be able to ride it, especially since I am less than meters tall now, almost the same height as a child, so I cannot ride this bike.

It is different from the shared bicycles in the Medicinal Botanical Garden before. The base of the shared bicycles is very low. I guess those companies set the minimum age of users at over 12 years old when designing them. So it is no problem for me to ride a shared bicycle, but it is very dangerous to ride this adult mountain bike.

Now I have a new body... A girl's body doesn't have the muscle memory of riding a bike as a man, so I can only rely on some experience and skills to barely drive the shared bike with a low chassis. Even if I ride it crookedly and can't keep my balance, I can still use my feet to support the ground to avoid falling. But with this bike, my feet can't even reach the ground, so I can't ride it at all.

It seems that I can only push the car out and find a hidden place.

Realizing this, I could only put the car lock on the front of the car, then push the front of the car out of the apartment.

"There's a cultural and art exhibition today, how about we go check it out?"

When I was leaving, a young couple came in. When they saw me, they both looked at me with curiosity. Then the man was fiercely pulled over by the woman: "Stop looking at me, you lolita!"

"No, I was just wondering, when did we have girls this young here?"

"Never mind her. I'm asking you if you want to go to that cultural and art exhibition? Aren't you the author? Your website and editor should have a place there, right?"

"I am the author, but I didn't receive an invitation. Even if I go, I can only go as a tourist."

"Then let's go and have a look around. You can also build a relationship with your editor while you're at it. Maybe you can even get a recommendation."

"..."

Eh? So there are other novel writers in this building besides me?

Pushing my bicycle to the small alley outside the apartment, I looked left and right and walked towards the lane on the far right.

This road is the least crowded one in my memory, because at the end is a shabby little storage room with few people. There is a transformer in the house, and the electrician will go over to check when there is a power outage in the rental house.

"Kun!"

As usual, when he saw someone passing by, the "Cat Boss" who had lived here for several years made a strange sound on the roof of the bungalow and cast a lazy glance over here.

I should have brought some catnip to knock you out.

I thought about it with a headache and stopped at the end of the alley.

But even if a cat sees it, it shouldn't be a big deal...it can't be a soul-devouring beast, right?

"Xiaomo, open the door."

After making sure that there was no one around except the orange cat raised by the property manager, I called Yin Xiamo.

"coming."

Along with the girl's energetic voice, a dark space crack appeared beside me.

"Kun! Yang Kun!"

The sudden noise instantly made the cat on the roof stand on end. It did a backflip on the spot and jumped high. It disappeared into the distance in a moment. The huge rental house was filled with that somewhat funny voice: "Kun! Yang Kun! There's a beauty... come here!"

“Is this the bicycle?”

Xiaomo came out of the crack and looked at the car next to me: "It's much bigger than the one in the park."

"That's different. The shared bikes in the park probably cost only a hundred yuan, and they can't change speeds. This one costs several hundred yuan."

I pushed the car to the girl in front of me: "Here, you put it downstairs."

"Hey hey hey."

Yin Xiamo took the bike happily and said, "Since Nuo'er can't ride this bike, will it be my exclusive ride from now on?"

I was surprised and asked, “Can you ride?”

"Don't underestimate the learning ability of the Grim Reaper. Give me half a day and I guarantee you will learn it!"

As she spoke, Yin Xiamo checked the back of the car: "Can't it carry people?"

"Okay, put that pedal down and you can take a ride, but the person at the back has to stand."

I pointed to the center of the rear wheel and said, "This is where you step on it, and then hold onto the shoulders of the person in front of you. Most bicycles of this type are like this. If you want to put someone on it, you need to add a metal seat. You can buy it online or go to the store and ask the owner to make it for you."

To be honest, when I bought this car, I never thought that there would be a day when I would carry passengers in it.

Good brother? Girlfriend? Not existing.

If I really had a good brother who I could go out with, I would just make an appointment with him about where to play and then go out by bus or rental house. As for a girlfriend... I don't think I was capable of having a relationship at that time.

"Wow, so if I learn how to ride a bike, can you hold me from behind, Nuoer?"

Yin Xiamo seemed to have found some treasure: "Then Xiaomo, don't worry about attending the author conference today. I'll practice riding a bike in the community. We'll take you out to play after dinner tonight!"

"Are you sure you can learn it in one day?"

I hesitated: "I... I am very afraid of pain."

I don’t want to fall down like a dog in the back when I’m sitting there.

"I will definitely learn it. Don't worry, I am your personal Death God. I will not bring any danger to our little pet unless I am absolutely sure!"

"It's up to you then. I might not be back until four or five in the afternoon."

As I was talking, I noticed the eerie crack behind Yin Xiamo, which looked like a hole in space. After hesitating for a moment, I asked the question I had always wanted to ask: "By the way, Xiaomo, what would happen if someone went halfway into your passage and you closed it?"

"Items that don't pass through the channel will be cut off. Absolutely cut off."

Yin Xiamo said seriously: "No matter what material it is, even the hardest thing on earth, it won't work. You can think of it as a magic that can destroy everything."

Well……

Cut off all material things?

Is this door so powerful? If it can be developed, it seems to have a wide range of uses.

"Then I'll go back first. Nuo'er, work hard today and learn more from the predecessors, so as to create a story that will make readers linger..."

As she spoke, the girl in front of her pushed her bicycle into the space crack: "Although I would rather Nuoer write about our daily erotic life, hehe."

"What do you mean by our daily sex? Our daily life... our daily life..."

I was just about to retort, but then I realized something after Yin Xiamo's "hint" - my daily life with her seemed to be quite naughty.

"Bye-Bye."

The space door slowly closed, and the huge alley returned to its former tranquility.

Well, forget it.

In this way, my problems at the Woju Apartment will be completely resolved. As long as the apartment owner returns the deposit, I can use my new phone to register a WeChat account of my own, and then I won’t need to use my “brother’s” account anymore.

In a few days, I will go to the police station to cancel Yin Shiren’s ID card and household registration, and my connection with him will be...completely over.

By the way, what video did the housing manager send me just now? Being interrogated by the police?

I walked out of the alley and sat down at the bus stop outside. I took out my phone, found the video, and clicked on it.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have broken the law, I really regret it..."

As soon as the video was opened, the first thing that popped up was the image of "Uncle Bei San", who had been aggressive in the Rabbit's author group, "Why do you, a man, use a female avatar?", sitting on the "regret chair".

"I shouldn't steal other people's property. Please give me a chance..."

Then the police officer in front of him asked: "Tell me the truth, how long have you been doing this?"

"Not... not long."

"How many years?"
