Chapter 457: Shen Lang, a man who understands others

At this time, Yamazaki Nu uncovered the white silk covering Zhifu's face. After seeing Zhifu's face, Shen Lang said to Yamazaki Nu: "He looks like he's still alive!"

Yamazaki Tsutomu is an old actor after all. At this time, he needs to act professional and calm. He sat aside and looked at the face of the "dead" and whispered: "It can be seen that he committed suicide by burning charcoal!"

While busying himself, Shen Lang asked quietly: "How did you know?"

"His expression was very peaceful. He died in a cold car. This would have been the case if he had been found earlier!"

Seeing this, everyone present, including Jiaben from the Undertakens Association, nodded repeatedly.

Although it seems disrespectful to the deceased to discuss the deceased in front of the host family in voices that only they can hear, for these two people, coffining is just their job, and communicating in a low voice at work is also the norm for all people in the workplace.

The two men had already taken the feelings of the deceased's family into consideration, so there was no expression on their faces, and they even tried to speak without leaving any trace.

It's a very small detail. The expressions of the two people are very natural even though they are talking. Just for this, many young actors nowadays have to NG eight hundred times.

At this time, Shen Lang looked at Zhifu who seemed to be sleeping peacefully and said, "She is very beautiful!"

Yamazaki Tsutomu turned around and asked, "Do you want to try?"

At this moment, Shen Lang looked at Yamazaki Nu's expression with a little surprise, but this expression was implicit and unnoticeable, with only a hint of "questioning" in his eyes.

Takashi Sasano, who had been paying attention to Shen Lang's performance, turned to the other actors around him and said, "No wonder Shen Sang is so famous in China, his eyes can really speak!"

When Ryoko, who was behind the crowd, heard this, she immediately remembered what Shen Lang said to her when they met at the elevator entrance that day.

"Other people's opinions are not important to me. I chose you because you are the most suitable candidate for the female lead in my mind."

When Shen Lang said this, his expression was serious and his eyes were firm, as if nothing in the outside world could confuse him.

This is a trait that Hirosue Ryoko rarely finds in Japanese men, especially those in the entertainment industry. Those thin, long-haired, sickly-looking men do not have the same eyes that give people a sense of security as Shen Sang.

Shen Lang looked at Yamazaki Nu, then at the deceased, and finally said, "Hi!"

The ceremony officially began. Shen Lang sat in front of the "deceased" and said to everyone: "Now let us wish the deceased a peaceful and calm death. Please allow me to perform the coffin-laying ceremony for her! Relatives present, please also participate!"

Speaking fluent Japanese, with a solemn expression and impeccable etiquette, everyone at the scene felt at this moment that Shen Lang was not a foreigner at all, but a native Japanese.

"Resemble, too much like! I've never seen a foreigner acting like a Japanese so much!"

"Yes, he speaks the Kansai accent so fluently. He even imitated the local accent of Shanxing! Shen Sang is really a language genius!"

"I think Shen Sang looks more and more handsome, especially in a suit, vest and white shirt. He looks so manly!"

……

Japan is a country where Buddhism and Shintoism coexist, so there are many Buddhist elements in funerals. Before working, Shen Lang put his hands together and bowed to the "dead", and then extended his hand to the "dead".

When Jiaben saw this, he held his breath and tried to find anything that was against the rules.

He was representing the Japanese Undertaker Association and was also a consultant for Shochiku Films, so he was naturally very concerned. Shen Lang gently stroked the forehead of the "dead" with both hands, moving them from the center of the eyebrows to both sides.

Seeing this, Sato whispered to Komoto, "This is... I attended a friend's funeral, and I've never seen an undertaker do this. Is he...?"

Jia Ben didn't say anything, but stared at Shen Lang's every step.

At this time, Shen Lang gently pressed the eyelids of the deceased with his thumbs, pulled them down slightly, and then gently rubbed and pressed the bone joints of the "deceased's" face back into place.

Seeing this, Komoto sighed and said to Sato Eisuke beside him: "You didn't see it because the undertaker your friend hired was not professional, and this Chinese... his movements were both professional and gentle, you could say..."

"It can be said that his every move can only be described as art!"

Sato was shocked when he heard this. Although Mr. Komoto was not an undertaker, he ran the largest funeral supplies company in western Japan, so he could be said to be a living dictionary of Japanese funeral culture.

Hearing such an evaluation of Shen Lang from his mouth, Sato finally felt relieved.

At this time, Shen Lang finished treating the face of the "deceased" and lifted the white cloth to reveal Zhifu's "body". At this time, Zhifu had his hands clasped in front of his chest. It was obvious that after he was found, he placed her in a peaceful posture according to local etiquette.

However, when the body is placed in the coffin, the deceased's hands must be placed naturally beside the body. Because the body is already stiff, the undertaker needs to use special techniques to twist the deceased's joints and then place them beside the body.

This step actually tests the undertaker's skills, and it is also where Jia Ben is most worried that Shen Lang will make a mistake.

At this time, Shen Lang was not nervous. He recalled every key point of the movement in his head. He first pried open the hands of the "dead man", and then held the "dead man's" wrists with both hands, like doing radio gymnastics. In just a few moves, he made the other person's "stiff" arms move to both sides of the body.

Seeing this, Jia Ben nodded excitedly and said, "Good, he did a great job!"

Sato asked curiously, "Is there any explanation for this?"

Komoto glanced at Sato and said, "Of course, every technical move of Mr. Shen is in line with the work standards of our Undertaker Association, and his movements are gentle and graceful, as if he is doing rehabilitation exercises with the deceased."

"Although, in reality, it may take a lot of strength and deep skills to put the arms of the deceased on both sides of the body, but you are making a movie. Mr. Shen's technical movements are correct. I think making the movie more beautiful can also reduce some of the prejudices that the world has against our profession of undertakers!"

While the two were talking, Shen Lang had already used his skilled techniques to strip off all the clothes of the "dead man" underneath the covering white cloth.

This scene shocked everyone.

How much practice did it take to master this technique of unbuttoning with one hand?

This, this, this, this...

Jiaben, who originally came to find trouble, was completely dumbfounded.

"If Mr. Shen were not an actor but an undertaker, I guarantee that he would be the most sought-after undertaker in western Japan, no, in the entire country of Japan! He is so amazing. Can anyone tell me how long he practiced for all this?"

Sato was also dumbfounded. He was the actor playing the role of "the deceased's husband", but he saw with his own eyes that the man lay down with his clothes on. In just a short while, the outer mourning clothes were taken off by Shen Lang?

"This is so...considerate..."
