Afterlife Department

Jin Wu wanted to frown, displeased, because someone pointed a finger at him which he finds very disrespectful. But, he remembered Yi Bing\'s warning to him this morning before they left the apartment building where Huo Ling and Mo Shi are renting as a part of their disguise as undercover grim reapers.

Thus, he bit his tongue inside his mouth to not utter a curse or else Yi Bing will increase his injuries and he will never ever recover. It is not like Jin Wu is afraid of Yi Bing. It is just that he can\'t afford to become invalid right now since there is still that strongest Deserter around. In case they would meet him again and a fight breaks out, Jin Wu will definitely suffer defeat again because he is still injured.

So, right now, he has to be obedient albeit he wanted to break the finger that is currently pointing at him disrespectfully. If this was when he was still alive where he was the leader of the gangsters, he would have already cut Zheng Jian\'s entire hand or broken his entire arm.

It was as if Zheng Jian could feel Jin Wu\'s cold gaze on his hand and he felt a chill on his back. He immediately withdrew his hand and even his it on his back before he scooted closer to Lan Tian who looked at him with a puzzled gaze.

"Well, there were only the two of them before…" Hao Baiyun answered and coughed as he glanced at Jin Wu and Yi Bing.

Huo Ling, their group of four\'s current leader, apologetically smiled. "I apologize for this, director Hao." He spoke. "It was us who didn\'t make an announcement…" he said and heaved a sigh.

"Well… may I ask why you brought your two friends over?" Hao Baiyun asked. He has a good temper, and is very understanding, especially since he found out that these two young men, Huo Ling and Mo Shi, had lived a hard life due to their eyes that are of different colors than the normal humans.

Although other people also have amber eyes like Huo Ling so Huo Ling doesn\'t have to wear contact lenses like Mo Shi who have a white eyes, Huo Ling\'s strange behavior due to him able to see supernatural beings or things made him be excluded by others.

Meanwhile, for Mo Shi… there is no need to talk much about him. Huo Ling also told them before that Mo Shi was even almost killed when he was young because they thought that he is a monster. Well, they are technically correct since Mo Shi and Huo Ling are grim reapers, but Huo Ling and Mo Shi had to induce sympathy from Hao Baiyun for him to accept them first, then gain his trust later.

And Huo Ling is definitely correct to use this technique. Aren\'t they now inside the doors of the Supernatural Department? Though, of course, they have to prove their abilities first to Hao Baiyun and the rest of the Supernatural Department. So, today, they are here for their assessment test.

"Our friends… they are Lu Feng – " Huo Ling looked at Yi Bing. " – and Mo Qin." He said and turned to Jin Wu.

Mo Shi\'s brow imperceptibly twitched when he heard Jin Wu\'s fake name. Why is he surnamed \'Mo\'! That is my surname! He thought and secretly frowned. But, he didn\'t say anything or else it will expose them, which will waste al of their, especially Huo Ling\'s, efforts.

"Did they have supernatural abilities, too?!" Jin Chulin asked. They already heard from Fei Xuli about the story of the \'Jiang brothers\'.

They are ordinary humans, but they greatly sympathize with these two \'brothers\' who were ostracized.

"They, uh…" Huo Ling looked at Yi Bing.

Yi Bing\'s expression is indifferent but he raised his hand. Then, everyone saw that Hao Baiyun\'s cup floated in the air! Including the water!

"Whoa!" everyone exclaimed in surprise.

"Telekinesis." Lan Tian\'s brows raised and smiled, appreciating Yi Bing\'s ability.

Zi Chen\'s expression slightly warmed seeing this. "You have abilities. Although you are slightly older than them, why didn\'t you join the Youth Department?" he asked.

"They live low-profile." Huo Ling answered. "Also… they are very kind to protect us brothers." He added and smiled.

Everyone\'s eyes brightened and they looked at Yi Bing and Jin Wu with an approving gaze.

"How about you?" Jing Yu asked Jin Wu.

Jin Wu didn\'t answer, but he disappeared from his seat.

Everyone was startled. "Invisibility?" they asked.

"Teleportation." Fei Xuli answered when he saw Jin Wu was standing outside.

Huo Ling\'s and Mo Shi\'s brows twitched after they saw Jin Wu. No. He isn\'t displaying his skill! He realy wanted to leave! They thought and helplessly sighed as they looked at Yi Bing. Yi Bing didn\'t say anything and just glanced at Jin Wu, who pursed his lips and returned to his seat via teleportation.

They already have planned this morning for Yi Bing and Jin Wu to also join the Supernatural Department temporarily since the task is related to the Deserters. As long as they follow the task, they will definitely meet the Deserters! So, Huo Ling suggested to Yi Bing and Jin Wu to use telekinesis and teleportation during the assessment of the Supernatural Department.

And here they are now.

"It is good that you have abilities." Hao Baiyun sighed in relief.

In the Supernatural Department, only he and Jing Yu have abilities. Hao Baiyun is an authentic exorcist. As for Jing Yu, his ability is related to water.

"Your task is to find any beings that you are able to find and then report it to us." Hao Baiyun told Huo Ling and Mo Shi. "As for your friends, they will be on a probation period. If you two will also pass our assessment, which will last for two days, then you will also be on a probation period." He told them.

Huo Ling and Mo Shi nodded in understanding. This couldn\'t be any more convenient for them, as they don\'t plan to be permanent members of the Supernatural Department! "Thank you, director Hao!" they enthusiastically said.

Hao Baiyun\'s expression is warm as he smiled at them. "You also know how to draw, right? Just draw whatever you will find, including the ghosts." He said. "It would be even better if you would recognize who are they." He added.

Huo Ling nodded in agreement. He already knows that Hao Baiyun also wanted to find Li Fengxin to know more about her case, and find clues about the culprit of this exchange of fates. In short, Hao Baiyun is on the same boat with Huo Ling, Mo Shi, Yi Bing and Jin Wu.

"We understand, director Hao. We will do our best!" Huo Ling said.

"Good." Hao Baiyun nodded.

"Good luck!" the members of the Supernatural Department cheered for them.

Yuhua Entertainment, CEO\'s Office.

"We found some suspicious activities on the premise of the dormitory building of your company\'s trainees." Gu Xingfeng told Mo Yang. "From the surveillance videos that we have placed yesterday, we saw some people scuttling around the area." He said and glanced at Jiang Xinduo who is holding a box.

Jiang Xinduo immediately brought the box and placed it on Mo Yang\'s table to show him the evidences of the wires and a tape that was cut that belongs to a recorder. There were also some pieces of hair and also a button. "These are what we found yesterday on the scene." He said.

Mo Yang\'s expression is heavy. "You mean to say, someone is really playing a prank using Hyacinth\'s name?" he asked.

The \'Hyacinth\' that he is talking about is Li Fengxin, the one who died in the dormitory building.

"En." Gu Xingfeng nodded as he looked at the tape. "They must have left in hurry so they forgot to clean up their traces." He smiled.

Mo Yang\'s expression turned ugly. "Find them! I will definitely not show mercy to them!" he said.

"Of course." Gu Xingfeng nodded and rose from his seat. Then, he suddenly paused. "Right. We also saw in the video that someone fell in a stairwell." He said and looked at Mo Yang whose face instantly darkened. "Of course, it wasn\'t serious as it was only a sprained ankle after she tripped on the last step. Or else, we would have acted last night and sent her to the hospital.." He told him.
