Chapter 1: Comrade

  "Two big brothers, please spare my life! I don't want to die!" Zhao Hui begged with all his might. The handcuff-like thing on his hands was incredibly powerful, and he couldn't move an inch. He could only follow the two escorts, Black and White Impermanence 9527, as they floated forward. The original entrance to hell was actually in the Taiping Ward!

  The majestic red building is getting closer and closer, Zhao Hui's pleading voice is gradually drowned out by the sound of car horns floating in the air. That's right, it's the sound of car horns, the scene before his eyes is not the legendary dark and gloomy, eerie and desolate hell with mournful cries that never cease, but rather a thriving city!

  "What... what kind of place is this?" Zhao Hui asked stupidly, stunned by the scene in front of him. "This highway is the Huang Quan Road, a two-way twenty-lane road, and up ahead is the famous Meng Po," Bai Wuchang explained with a smile, every person who comes here asks the same question, I don't know which idiot said that our majestic underworld was such a gloomy place.

  "No, how can there still be cars here? Didn't everyone who came here get reincarnated as humans?" The scene in front of him was so astonishing that Zhao Hui even forgot to plead.

  "Haha, you don't understand this, our business is so extensive, of course we can't have fewer staff, these drivers are all civil servants." Bai Wuchang was still smiling and saying, now promoting smile service, it's the same here.

  "Oh, it seems that all the civil servants here have cars, but what about those sweeping the streets?" Zhao Hui pointed to some ghosts wearing shackles and wielding large brooms on both sides of the road.

  "This is all because of the corrupt officials and evil tyrants from your side, they are receiving labor reform, once their sentence is over, they can be reborn. Bai Wuchang's service attitude was very good, it even gave Zhao Hui a feeling of being inspected by a leader, he asked this and that, if not for Bai Wuchang holding him back, Hei Wuchang would have taken care of him long ago."

  "This bridge is magnificent, and the moat is below, right?" Looking at Dongdong beside him, who was even more majestic than the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, Zhao Hui couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

  "No, this is the Naihe River, and the bridge is the famous Naihe Bridge. Once you cross the Naihe Bridge, it means you have truly entered the realm of the underworld. Unless you are reborn or reincarnated, there is no possibility of returning to the world of the living."

  Bai Wuchang finished speaking, and the three ghosts just walked down from the bridge. "Ah, why didn't you say that earlier?" Zhao Hui begged again. "Two big brothers, I was only hit by a brick, how could I die so easily? You must have made a mistake, hurry up and put me back!"

  Hei Wu Chang lazily pulled out a walkie-talkie-like object and whispered two sentences, instantly a rugged off-road vehicle came speeding over, screeching to a halt with a sharp braking sound, stopping steadily in front of Zhao Hui San Gui.

  Two men wearing sunglasses and dressed in black walked down. "Brother Niu, Brother Ma." Bai Wuchang smiled and greeted them. Zhao Hui was taken aback, could it be that this is the legendary Ox-Headed Horse-Faced, why do they look a bit like pig butchers?

  "Hmm." Either Niu Xiong or Ma Xiong responded with a grunt and reached out to grab Zhao Hui, carrying him away like a little chick.

  Zhao Hui's eyesight wasn't bad, and with one glance at the two ghosts' appearance, he knew they weren't good eggs. He didn't dare to shout again, who knows if provoking the two ghosts would get himself into trouble? It was said that this place had eighteen layers of hell, don't accidentally throw yourself in and take a spin around, or you'd be dead for sure!

  "Behave well and strive to get a good place." Just as the car door was about to close, Bai Wuchang said in a low voice, moving Zhao Hui to tears, what a rare good ghost.

  The off-road vehicle was still speeding along, but Zhao Hui, who was preoccupied with worries, had no interest in the scenery outside. What to do now? It seemed that wanting to go back was impossible, would he really die young like this? The kindness of his parents' upbringing had not been repaid, and growing up so big without even resolving the issue of a first kiss, if it ended like this, wouldn't it be too regrettable!

  "We've arrived, get off!" A cold voice rang out. Zhao Hui looked up and through the window saw a large gate with a wooden sign hanging beside it, on which were written eight big characters: "Netherworld Reincarnation Registry Branch 2".

  "Director Zhao is here." Niu Tou Ma Mian pushed Zhao Hui in, bowing his head to the ghost sitting behind the office desk, who was frowning at the computer with a vacant expression.

  "You two idiots, can't you see that Director Ben is thinking about something important? You're messing with your bonus this month, damn it! The director's train of thought was interrupted and he was furious. Just now, when facing Zhao Hui, he had a stern expression, but immediately put on a flattering face. "Director, sorry, we two brothers will be more careful next time, definitely."

  "Hmm." The person in charge hummed coldly and sat up straight, scanning Zhao Hui with a frown and asking, "What's your name?"

  "If I return to the underworld, my name is Zhao Hui." Zhao Hui said respectfully. Bai Wuchang said that he must behave well in order to strive for a good reincarnation quota.

  As expected, after hearing his response, the person in charge chuckled and nodded: "Not bad, not bad, haha, nowadays young people are becoming more and more well-mannered." After that, he opened a window on the computer in front of him and entered Zhao Hui's name.

  "Zhao Hui, 21 years old this year, is an honest and kind person. He helps the elderly cross the road, assists neighbors in cleaning windows, and has seen justice and bravery several times, but his body is weak, and each time he ends in failure. Hmm, it seems like he's still a good person after all." The person sitting next to him nodded slightly and said.

  After hearing this, Zhao Hui felt light and airy, never expecting that the few shameful things he had done would all be recorded in the book. It seems that good people have good rewards, and without having to show off, the good place was automatically given to him.

  "This is the advantage, the disadvantage is that he is dull and not good at socializing, his heart is also not broad, often holding grudges against those who have wronged him, unable to forgive. Moreover, his personality is gloomy, every Sunday he must bring a U disk to sneak into the corner of an internet cafe, browsing unhealthy websites, watching adult videos, and liking stars such as Sora Aoi, Rina Wakami, and Kaede Matsushima, personally collecting hundreds of seeds in his email!" The further I read, the brighter my eyes became, excitement was hard to contain.

  Realizing that his expression was somewhat improper, he glared at the person sitting in front of him and shouted: "You scoundrel! No wonder you died such a miserable death. You were killed by someone with a brick while serving others, it's truly a case of getting what you deserved!"

  Zhao Hui's face turned pale, and he hadn't expected that his records here would be so clear, even including watching adult movies. It seemed like there was no way to escape now, and the indicator of being reborn into a rich and noble family was about to fly away. Just as Zhao Hui was filled with regret, he suddenly felt the temperature around him drop sharply. He quietly raised his eyes and saw that Ox-Head and Horse-Face were staring at him angrily! Zhao Hui's heart chilled, knowing that this time he was done for, and it seemed like labor reform was unavoidable.

  "Hmmph." The official cleared his throat, raised his head and shouted angrily: "You're a good one, Zhao Hui! So young and yet so despicable. Let's see how I deal with you this time! Xiao Niu, Xiao Ma, you two step down first. I'll interrogate him thoroughly. This kid must have some other misdeeds that haven't been recorded in the register. You know the system server is overwhelmed and often misses things. We still need to use old tricks."

  "Director, I'll stay with Old Ma to help you carry out the punishment, hehe, since we're taking action, how can we do without me and him?" Niu Tou said with utmost loyalty.

  "Nonsense! Didn't you see the 'Code of Conduct for Public Servants' issued by the Chairman a few days ago? You must always remember to enforce the law in a civilized manner, how can you so readily resort to torture and violence against suspects?" The presiding judge thundered angrily.

  The ox-headed and horse-faced deities were enraged at the scene, and they hastened to cover their mouths and plead for mercy: "Director, calm your anger, Director, calm your anger."

  "Hmph, go back and reflect on your mistakes immediately, copy the 'Code of Conduct' a hundred times!" As soon as the words left his mouth, Ox-Head and Horse-Face didn't dare to say another word, they ran out with their tails between their legs. Only Zhao Hui was left standing there, drenched in cold sweat and trembling with fear.

  "Don't be afraid, young man. It's just a matter of course for men to like these things. Haha." Contrary to Zhao Hui's expectations, after the ox-headed and horse-faced deities left, the seated figure did not get angry, but instead stood up with a pleased expression and walked in front of him, patting his shoulder as he spoke.

  "Hey, can you lend me your email account for a few days? Honestly, I'm not kidding, the Trojan horses are rampant here too. Our boss's personal email was hacked two days ago by some bastard and he lost hundreds of precious seeds, it's a huge loss." The boss shook his head and sighed. Zhao Hui listened with a pounding heart, so that's how the pervert came to be. Heh, looks like he wants to interrogate himself alone because of this matter, birds of a feather flock together.

  "It's not like I'm going to use it much, and the kid's mailbox isn't very useful either. I'll just give it to you, what's with this borrowing business? Aren't you slapping me in the face? Hehe, I just don't know if our mailboxes can be opened on your side." Zhao Hui said obediently.

  "You have to believe in our technology, it will definitely work, quickly tell me your account and password." The impatient person said.

  As soon as the password was entered, the page opened with a plethora of tantalizing titles that made one's blood boil. Taking a deep breath and giving a thumbs up in admiration, he said: "Little Zhao, not bad! Hehe, you're absolutely a promising young man. It's been a long time since I've seen someone like you around here, so I've decided to take care of you a bit. Tell me, where do you want to be reborn? Do you want to be a rich second-generation or...? As long as it doesn't go against the principles, I'll satisfy your wish!"

  After hearing this, Zhao Hui's excitement was indescribable. "Sir, I don't want to be a rich second generation or an official second generation. I just ask you to let me go back home. My parents' kindness has not been repaid, and I really feel guilty about it." Zhao Hui's words were sincere, and the officer couldn't help but nod his head. Such young people are rare nowadays.

  "It's rare that you have such a filial heart, I'm taking the risk of being reprimanded to help you out, haha." The director said with a smile.
