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
Since the grim reapers don't need rest, they lazed around their room after the servants delivered them their dinner and fixed their bed, silently telling them to sleep early. Why will the grim reapers care about that?
Jiu Ye, the coward, can't sit still in his room and ate his dinner. Then, he called for his elder brother, only to be surprised when he saw Huo Ling and Yi Bing arrived, too. They used teleportation since the servants have reminded them earlier to not go out of their rooms.
Huo Ling has been lying on his bed and typing down notes again when he suddenly received a message from Jiu Ye. Then, he found out it's for Shi Jiu. He realized that Jiu Ye must have accidentally set it as a group message. Since he is bored, he decided to go to Jiu Ye's room.
