Afterlife Department

Gu Xingfeng's face couldn't any be darker when he saw Ke Congyi who was panting and was coldly sweating as he ran towards him. "Chief!" he called. His voice laced with panic.

At the same time, Xue Liping came running carrying something. "Chief!" he called.

Ke Congyi turned and his face turned green when he saw a tapping device. "Damn it!" he cursed and almost grabbed the device and crush it has it not an evidence. "Chief…" he called. His face and tone grave. "Ye Ting's death was leaked an hour ago, including Jack's and his accomplices' which is just now." He told Gu Xingfeng.

They all flinched when Gu Xingfeng punched the glass wall and it broke.. At the same time, the sleeping Hao Baiyun woke with a start. He went out from Gu Xingfeng's office and noticed the tense atmosphere. What happened while I was asleep? He thought and turned to Gu Xingfeng who wore a stormy expression.

"Find their source and sue him!" Gu Xingfeng told Ke Congyi. "Xiao Xue. You sweep all the suspicious devices in the station. If I'd found a traitor…" he said as he glared at each one of them, making them feel a blade was on their neck.

"Xing-ge." Hao Baiyun softly called as he walked towards Gu Xingfeng. Gu Xingfeng's anger lessened when he turned to Hao Baiyun.

Chief's madam! The police officers cried in their mind and looked at Hao Baiyun as if he was their savior. "Do your job properly!" Gu Xingfeng snapped at them.

"Yes!" the police officers immediately resumed their tasks.

"What happened?" Hao Baiyun asked when he was led back by Gu Xingfeng to his office.

"Ye Ting died. Jack killed him. Jack and his accomplices committed suicide earlier." Gu Xingfeng explained as he took the latest report from the hospital. It's confirmed that Su Lin, Xu Ke, Rong Zhe and Lu Ming inhaled sleeping gas last night. Lu Ming had taken the least since he's near Ye Ting's cell and Ye Ting would be affected by the sleeping gas if Lu Ming was to inhale the same amount as the other three.

"What?!" Hao Baiyun was shocked. "Who could… even Jack and his friends?!" he said.

Gu Xingfeng nodded. "As an artist who can see the bigger picture, what can you infer with this?" he asked as he handed Hao Baiyun a report.

"Huo Ling, Zhu Min and Eunice?" Hao Baiyun said. "That's right. These three's cases… yes. Their common is that they – the victims, were raped." He muttered as if he was enlightened. "If the culprit for this got something to do with the three cases, then, either they were also a rape victim, or – " he looked at Gu Xingfeng.

"Someone who loathes the rapists." Gu Xingfeng said.

"This isn't just Huo Ling's matter anymore, right?" Hao Baiyun said.

Gu Xingfeng knew what he's worried for. "Lu Ming, Xu Ke, Rong Zhe and Su Lin were the ones that're only left. I've already tightened the security for them." He told Hao Baiyun.

Hao Baiyun was relieved. He smiled at Gu Xingfeng. "Thank you." He told him.

Gu Xingfeng's brows raised. "Is young master Hao selling his body in exchange for his cousin's safety?" he asked. His voice is teasing.

Hao Baiyun's face immediately reddened. "Stop that!" he said in embarrassment.

Gu Xingfeng chuckled and hugged him tight. "After all of these is over… shall we get married again?" he asked.

Hao Baiyun's eyes widened and his heart skipped a beat. "That…" he said. "Mn." He nodded and buried his face on Gu Xingfeng's chest.

Stable World, S City.

"Strange…" Hao Baiyun muttered as he placed the tip of his fan on his lips as he looked at the shape of the hole on the roof. "Looking closely, you could see the shape of fingers." He said.

Fei Xuli nodded as he inspected the scratches. "Xiao Yu." He called and gave Jing Yu a bottled water.

Jing Yu immediately took it and uncapped it before he poured the water on the roof. However, it's as if the water is alive and it divided itself before it traced the shape of the hole. Jing Yu raised his hand and the water with an irregular shape floated in front of them before the water edges became thin and filled the interior gap.

"Make it round." Hao Baiyun said.

Jing Yu nodded and the water immediately inflated. Their eyes widened when they finally clearly saw the image in their mind.

"It's really a monster." Fei Xuli said as he looked at the seven right hands, four left hands, one right foot and three feet and two heads of the monster. It also seemed it has short and uneven wings and a short tail. "Too hideous." He added.

Hao Baiyun nodded. "Like the cultivators in the past, these monsters also exist." He said.

Fei Xuli nodded. Them, the Supernatural Department, has the blood of the cultivators in the past, making them more sensitive towards the nature. For example, Jing Yu, he has an affinity towards water. "Shall we go to the other places to check?" he asked.

Hao Baiyun nodded. "Let's go." He said as he jumped down from the roof. However, when he landed on the ground, he was as light as a cloud. Fei Xuli and Jing Yu followed behind him. They bypassed the yellow police line and walked towards the car parked on the side.

Fei Xuli opened the door and Hao Baiyun and Jing Yu went inside while he went to the driver's seat and started the car. "What should we do about those two?" he asked as their car left. He looked at the rearview mirror and saw the two figures on the roof of the building not far the gym are gone.

"Ignore them." Hao Baiyun answered.

Jing Yu was about to turn his head back when Hao Baiyun hit his head with his fan. "Ow." He expressionlessly cried.

Hao Baiyun sighed while Fei Xuli smiled. "What do you think they are planning to do?" he asked.

"Whatever it is – " Hao Baiyun said. " – the Supernatural Department is an independent organization. We don't live for the others' interests, but ourselves'." He told them. He single-handedly created the Supernatural Department to amuse himself using his family's money which he righteously inherited. Fei Xuli, Jing Yu and the other members of the Supernatural Department are the people he met and picked up. It's as if there's a thread connecting them all to each other, making them a big family.

Thus, he won't let the government use the Supernatural Department by teaming up with the Ability Users' Department to forsake their life in whatever big matter that's currently going on right now. The Supernatural Department is the only family he has left.

If they'd try make a mess with his family, they'll pay in hell.

Normal World, S City.

"Even Jack…!" Huo Ling exclaimed in shock when he and Yi Bing saw the news broadcasted in the TV above the building about the group suicide of Jack and his accomplices. "What on earth is… huh?" he muttered when he saw someone familiar sitting at the backseat of the taxi that passed by. The direction the taxi going to is… "Did I see wrong?" he muttered.

"What's wrong?" Yi Bing asked when he heard Huo Ling spoke.

"No… I think I'm just mistaken." Huo Ling said as his brows knit.

"With what?" Yi Bing asked.

"I think… I saw… Zhu Min's mother." Huo Ling said. "But, she should be in the hospital still recuperating…" he said.

"You didn't see wrong." Yi Bing said.

"Huh?" Huo Ling looked at him.

"I also saw her." Yi Bing told him. "She's in the taxi and is going towards the S City police station." He said.

"…" why didn't you tell me, then? Huo Ling thought and fought the urge to yell at Yi Bing.

Seeing the familiar expression of Huo Ling holding back his temper like when they were in the Stable World, Yi Bing smiled. "Let's go. Something big is going to happen." He told him.

"What?" Huo Ling's attention immediately was caught by what Yi Bing had said. "What do you mean, something big will happen?" he asked as he followed behind Yi Bing.

"Grim reapers don't have the power to foresee the future." Yi Bing said. "But, angels do have." He said. "Us, grim reapers, can only arrive ahead of one's time of death to fetch them since the god of heaven gave us the Calendar of Death based from the Wheel of Fate." He explained. "Our Death Note is both derived from the Wheel of Fate and the Calendar of Death." He added and showed Huo Ling the Death Note.

Huo Ling's eyes immediately turned into circles after he heard the familiar yet also became unfamiliar words. He knew the words, yet when being grouped with the other words they then become incomprehensible.

"We only knew something's coming, but don't know what exactly it is."
