50,000 years ago, Hell was destroyed because of too much Foul from the resentment of the souls that later turned to Soul Eaters and devoured everything in their wake, leaving nothing of Hell. The gods above in Heaven, in order to take care of the newly-died souls, created the Afterlife Department comprised of grim reapers. Huo Ling was delivering food that day when he met Yi Bing and the guy gave him a warning. When he arrived to the customer's unit, he was killed. Huo Ling: you set up a death flag for me! Yi Bing: I'm a grim reaper. I'm the flag myself. Let me help you solve the mystery of your death. Huo Ling: your sister! Alternative title: The Different Ways I Died at 23 Update: daily
Lower Heaven, Afterlife Department, infirmary.
"Do you really have to send Yi Bing and his apprentice to find Jin Wu and Mo Shi?" Hai Ba asked as he looked at Gu Shi who is clutching the diary tight in his hand. "What if Jin Wu's and Mo Shi's communicators just lost signal but they are actually fine?" he asked.
"It is better to be safe than sorry." Gu Shi answered as he opened the page where that drawing of a 'butterfly' was to look at it again.
Hai Ba heaved a sigh, deciding not to bicker with Gu Shi and went to check on his patients. Ruan Yu followed, but he went to his office to check on Jiu Ye and Bai Wu who are inside and are resting. As soon as they saw Ruan Yu entered, Jiu Ye wanted to sit up on the bed but Ruan Yu waved his hand. Bai Wu also pushed him down back on the bed before Bai Wu turned to look at Ruan Yu.
"Thank you, doctor, for lending us your office." Bai Wu said.
