When I heard Wu Aiguo's words, I linked the information on my end.
I quickly pieced it together and came to a complete conclusion.
Otherwise, why would that old ghost have gone looking for a female corpse?
But it was strange too. The old man ghost and old woman ghost were fully capable of killing a passerby.
Yet they had gone all that way to the funeral home to find a corpse.
Could it be that they also avoided killing people? That was probably it.

Only then would they go through all that trouble to obtain a corpse.
Instead of simply killing someone nearby and taking over their body...
That was the best explanation I could think of.
As for whether the old ghosts actually thought that way, I couldn't be sure.
I put away the Human-Skin Lantern and waited in the shop for over half an hour before Wu Aiguo arrived with Two Rivers Funeral Home's corpse collection vehicle.

"You're my Senior Brother. There's no question about it..."
