Afterlife Department
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

"Xiao Ling told me, that if he died, the person who will kill him is..." Hao Baiyun said as he took a deep breath. "... someone from the royal family." he said.
"Do you have an idea who could it be?" Gu Xingfeng asked.
It wasn't surprising that the murderer would be from the royal family, since they are included in the list of suspects. Even the imperial family of their motherland is filled with conspiracies. Is the royal family different? The royal family is just one of the factions that might have killed Huo Ling.
What's surprising is that... "He really told you about this?" he asked again.
Hao Baiyun nodded. His expression is heavy. Gu Xingfeng never mixes his private life with his profession, thus he wouldn't let his feelings affect his judgement. Hao Baiyun isn't lying to him. Added to the fact that Hao Baiyun treats Huo Ling as his younger brother, Hao Baiyun wouldn't joke pertaining to Huo Ling's death.
