Afterlife Department

Chapter 58 - Performance

Afterlife Department, R&D.

"Do you think we could create another weapon, but this time, against the Soul Eaters?" Hai Ba asked Sha Jiu.

"The greatest weapon I have made so far is my baby Anji." Sha Jiu said while chewing on a gum. Anji Lin is the angel Lolita doll Yi Bing borrowed from the R&D.

"Right. Yi Bing borrowed it and we saw its effects." Hai Ba said. "By the way, I wonder how is Yi Bing now." Earlier, Yi Bing and Qi Shan weren't present in the meeting. They don't call for Qi Shan since Qi Shan handles the Important Souls. As for Yi Bing…

"When has he ever became present in our meetings?" Sha Jiu said. Yi Bing is known for his indifference, thus no one bothers him. Not even for important meetings. "He must be on another assignment again." He added.

Hai Ba nodded. He didn't ask further and he and Sha Jiu continued their work.

Conference Room.

Gu Shi watched as each one of them walked out of the door until he and Di San were the ones left inside the room. Di San conscientiously brewed him coffee. "Have you replied to Yi Bing yet?" Gu Shi asked.

"Not yet." Di San answered. "What should I reply" he asked.

Gu Shi didn't answer as he looked at Yi Bing's queries.

0001: Special Soul Huo Ling is exhibiting strange behaviors after my Wholeness struck him. His memories were lost.

0001: Important Soul Lei Shan's ability cannot affect Special Soul Huo Ling.

0001: Special Soul Huo Ling's soul attribute disappeared. Do?you know?what happened?

"Huo Ling's information is highly confidential." Gu Shi said. Di san fell silent. When he became the assistant director, Shen Sheng generously told him about Yi Bing and Huo Ling's past. Di San wasn't surprised of Yi Bing being formerly archangel since it isn't really a secret, and Yi Bing is open-minded about this sore spot of his. Archangels' code starts in 000, and the fourth digit ranged from 1 to 9. Thus, Yi Bing is obviously an archangel – before.

What shocked Di San the most is Huo Ling. Yi Bing's life is entangled with his (HL), most especially Yi Bing's sin. Thus, when Di San receives Yi Bing's messages, he tells him what should he said, and he doesn't tell him what he should not said. Not because he is afraid of Shen Sheng, but because Di San can't bear to tell Yi Bing's past to him.

Yi Bing has lost his memory, as well as he forgotten about Huo Ling – and his sin to Huo Ling. Now, what should they tell Yi Bing? Obviously, they cannot tell him that Huo Ling is also an archangel – 0000, and Huo Ling's ability is Neutralization – to negate everything, including the abilities, as well as his own one.

In the Special World, Yi Bing watched as Qi Shan's brows were twitching uncontrollably as he looked at Lei Shan communicating with the zombies silently – through telepathy. "All he does is do a staring contest with these zombies!" Qi Shan said in exasperation.

"Lei Shan is also a zombie." Yi Bing said.

"All he does is do a staring contest with his fellow zombies!" Qi Shan rephrased.

"That's how telepathy is." Yi Bing said.

"I wish he could do something other than telepathy!" Qi Shan finally voiced out his concern.

"He has wind and lightning abilities." Yi Bing reminded him.

"I wish he can do something too flashy, not this thing so plain." Qi Shan frowned. He felt disillusioned.

Yi Bing looked at Qi Shan. "You don't want him to be low-key? He won't attract the government's eyes if he's like this." He told Qi Shan. He doesn't know the qualms of having protagonists as his assignments.

Qi Shan's hackles are raised, but he needs to calm himself. He looked at Yi Bing, a look of frustration is on his eyes. Yi Bing obviously doesn't understand Qi Shan's worries. Qi Shan has seen too many kinds of protagonists and helped them in their life's accomplishes. There was one who will be the biggest mafia boss, and he helped him loot the banks and smuggles firearms in a very high-profiled manner. It was too cool! There's also the sky and sea gods quarreling. Qi Shan helped the sea god pull down the sky god from the heaven and they drowned the sea god together, making the sea god the god above all the gods! The excitement is still lingering on his skin when he finished his task. The sea god gifted him all kinds of sea foods when he left, and telling him to come back again when he had time since he'll teach him the mermaid dance. The mermaids were beautifully dancing in the water, and Qi Shan wanted to learn it!

But, the most disappointing of all his protagonists is Lei Shan. Lately, the government sensed an organization of zombies – which is their doing. Qi Shan calculated the time, and now that they have gathered millions of zombies, training them on how to use their ability, Qi Shan wanted Lei Shan to challenge the government! But! Lei Shan doesn't! Want! To! Clearly! And it's already three months that have passed in this world! Yet Lei Shan still didn't make a move. Qi Shan wanted to choke him to wake him, but he didn't dare to since he's afraid Lei Shan might accidentally destroy the world. Thus, he could only secretly brew his dissatisfaction on the side as Lei Shan did a staring contest with his zombie subordinates.

Since Qi Shan can't vent out his frustrations, of course, he doesn't want others to not be frustrated. Thus, he turned to Yi Bing. "His finger is about to fall off from all that sucking." He 'kindly' told Yi Bing.

As expected, Yi Bing's face darkened as he immediately pulled Huo Ling's hand to stop him from sucking his thumb. Huo Ling's face looked dumbfounded when he can no longer suck his thumb. Then, a second after his eyes went round like saucers. "WAH!" he wailed. However, since his body no longer functioning normally, he has no tears. But, Yi Bing knew he is crying. "WAH!"

Yi Bing's face turned darker and his body emitting cold air like an open refrigerator. Qi Shan immediately escaped when the floor started to be covered by ice. Huo Ling's mind finally regressed to an infant's!
