Chapter 832 Dust to Dust, Earth to Earth

With Liu Wenying's consent, Zhang Zi'an held his cell phone in front of Sun Xiaomeng and let her see the chat information clearly.

It is not a trivial matter to perform euthanasia on pets. In fact, it was originally necessary to sign in writing, otherwise it would easily cause disputes. Sun Xiaomeng nodded to Long Xian for the sake of Zhang Zi'an being an acquaintance and prepared to perform euthanasia operations.

The two cooperated tacitly, and Long Xian held Siam's body instead. Sun Xiaomeng first injected anesthetic into its body.

Zhang Zian and Fina watched silently from a distance.

The anesthetic almost immediately took effect. Siam gradually stopped spasming and struggling, no longer howls, his head drooped softly, his godless pupils had no focus, and he stared at the white wall in confusion.

Its short life is about to end like this.

Confirming that the anesthetic had worked, Sun Xiaomeng raised another syringe. The tip of the needle was shining in the strong light, and a drop of crystal liquid slid down the silver needle.

This syringe has a high concentration of potassium chloride. After it is injected into the body, it will form instantaneous hyperkalemia, causing the heartbeat to stop.

If you have a shot, there will be no turning back.

Sun Xiaomeng glanced at Zhang Zian again, and he nodded slowly and firmly.

She stabbed the needle into Siam's body and her thumb pushed a very small solution of potassium chloride into its blood.

Almost instantly, something seemed to flash in Siam's pupils, and then disappeared again, permanently disappearing.

Sun Xiaomeng pressed the stethoscope she carried with her on her chest, listening to its heartbeat, and a few seconds later she took off the stethoscope and announced: "The sick pet has been confirmed to die."

Both Zhang Zi'an and Fina have seen the process of euthanizing pets for the first time. Although the scene is calm and bloodless, and the person euthanized is a dangerous pet with rabies, they always feel that their breathing is very depressed. The spacious clinic is as breathable as if it is not ventilated.

"What a great poison." Fina stared at the syringe and said horrifiedly, "It's colorless and tasteless, more violent than the most powerful snake venom. Humans have invented such a powerful thing..."

Zhang Zian wanted to say that potassium chloride is not essentially a poison, it exists in both your and my bodies, but in front of Sun Xiaomeng and others, he was inconvenient to explain, so he had to give up.

Sun Xiaomeng and Long Xian should have been used to such scenes and have been euthanized by pets many times, but the expressions on their faces are not relaxed.

"How to deal with the body?" asked Sun Xiaomeng, "There are three options: cremation, take back the ashes after cremation, and deal with the body by yourself."

Zhang Zian hesitated for a moment. In fact, this should be asked by Liu Wenying. After all, she is the master, but considering her condition, she should not disturb her for the time being.

As a pet infected with rabies, it is obviously inappropriate to deal with the body by yourself. The so-called self-handling means that the owner takes the body back and then finds a place to bury it. However, if the corpses of cats and dogs carrying severe infectious diseases must be buried deep. If it is shallow, it is likely to be dug out by wild dogs or other animals that love to dig the soil, causing further spread of the source of infection.

"Retrieve the ashes after cremation." Zhang Zian chose a compromise plan, at least he could return the ashes to Liu Wenying.

Although it was not clearly stated, Zhang Zi'an probably paid the fees in advance first, and then he would go to Liu Wenying to reimburse them.

Sun Xiaomeng took off her gloves, called a special pet cremation site, and made an appointment for them to come to pick up the body.

When she was talking to the other party on the phone, Zhang Zi'an thought about how much it would cost.

"They'll come tomorrow," she said, hanging up the phone.

"Not today?" Zhang Zi'an asked.

"No, they are busy today." Sun Xiaomeng said helplessly, "Who made our Binhai City just such a pet funeral institution? Anyone who wants to be cremated has to line up."

Zhang Zian sighed: "It's not easy to live these days, and it's difficult to die..."

The pet funeral industry is a very young emerging industry. It has only entered the vision of ordinary Chinese people in the past two or three years. With the booming development of the pet industry, Chinese people are raising more and more pets, and they are getting richer. Many people have feelings for pets as much as their feelings for family and friends. When the pet dies, they are willing to spend money to give their pets a decent funeral and a peaceful resting place.

However, objectively speaking, since the state has not yet issued corresponding laws and regulations on this aspect, the pet funeral industry is not so formal.

He couldn't hold it in, so he asked Sun Xiaomeng that the price of collective cremation of 10 yuan, without ashes; the price of cremation of 200 yuan alone is cremation of 200 yuan, with ashes; the cremation of 11 yuan alone is cremation of 11 yuan, with farewell ceremony, the owner watched the whole process, and a monk recited scriptures and salvation. After cremation, the price of picking up ashes and sealing the jar is 1500 yuan.

Zhang Zian breathed some relief. If it costs 200 yuan, it would be acceptable.

As for top funerals at a price of 1,500, they are not too expensive compared to the services provided. Assuming that these services are not mixed with moisture, those who are willing to spend 30,000 yuan to buy muttons or precious cat breeds such as Abyssinia should also be able to accept this price, at least much cheaper than human funerals...

His petty aroused Fina's contempt. While they were talking, it jumped onto the stainless steel operating table and watched the dead Siam.

Siam has lost all vital signs, and the body and mind, which are under the influence of viruses, have finally returned to peace. The muscles on the face relaxed under the action of anesthetics, making it look like it was asleep.

"Dust returns to dust, and soil returns to soil. If there is a next life, I will be a cat." It whispered to Siam.

"Don't touch!" Long Xian thought it was going to touch the dead Siam, so he hurriedly reached out to stop it.

Zhang Zi'an was asking Sun Xiaomeng about the pet funeral, but he didn't hear clearly what Fina was saying. When he turned around, he saw that it had jumped off the operating table.

Long Xian put Siamese's corpse in a pet-only body bag, then put it on a label, temporarily put it in the clinic's freezer, and wait for the people in the pet cremation site to pick it up tomorrow.

After this, Zhang Zi'an said goodbye to Sun Xiaomeng and Long Xian, and there are still many things to deal with in his store.

On the way back, he seemed to be infected by the previous atmosphere, and neither he nor Fina spoke.

Until he was about to reach the pet store, Fina suddenly said, "You are very strange, right? In your opinion, I don't cherish life very much?"

Zhang Zian was stunned and didn't say anything, which was a default.

Fina Youyou said: "Death is just the end of a journey, but it does not end in the sacred pyramids. The mummies of the pharaohs and the great priests of all generations are waiting quietly. As long as the right time comes, the Kingdom of God will rise again and sweep the world again!"

Zhang Zian shrugged, "It sounds good, but unfortunately I am an atheist. For me, I have only one life."
