Reserved Grim Reaper?

Ji Xiunian didn't understand what this meant for a moment, and a bewildered expression appeared on his face: "Isn't it your order?"

"It was a system error before, it was actually a colleague." Lu Xu himself felt that this change was a bit big, not to mention Ji Xiunian.

He looked at Lu Xu and always felt that everything today was like a dream. In just a few hours, he experienced the ups and downs of life. Anyone would find it incredible. Ji Xiunian stared into Lu Xu's eyes, and saw that he was still natural, not like he was lying.

"I am also the God of Death?" Ji Xiunian felt that Lu Xu had not lied to him, but he still couldn't help asking, "What are the conditions for becoming the God of Death, or is it that the system randomly selects and I just happened to be selected?"

Ji Xiunian has been a human being for a lifetime, and seeing ghosts has made him feel that the world is complicated. Now he is suddenly told by the God of Death that he is the God of Death. This is indeed a big turn.

"This is not random, it can be said to be chosen by heaven?" Lu Xu looked at Ji Xiunian and couldn't help but think of Zhong Huiqing. He didn't know how much Ji Xiunian knew about his mother.

After all, they were going to work together, and Lu Xu didn't think there was anything bad about this.

"Do you still remember your mother?"

Ji Xiunian didn't know why Lu Xu asked about his mother. After thinking for a while, he shook his head and said, "I don't have much impression."

How old was he when his parents passed away? So many years have passed, and he really has very few impressions of them. The only thing that makes him miss her is the jade pendant left by his mother, nothing else.

Wait, jade pendant?

Ji Xiunian thought about it carefully and vaguely felt that this jade pendant was not simple.

The amulet that can suppress his death and allow him to escape danger many times, you can tell it is not an ordinary item.

But where did his mother get such a treasure?

Lu Xu seemed to have heard his thoughts, and immediately said to Ji Xiunian: "You should have guessed it, you can become the god of death because your mother is the god of death..."

Lu Xu didn't know much about Zhong Huiqing, and all his knowledge came from the minister's narration.

Although the love story between Zhong Huiqing and Ji Xiunian's father sounded a bit like a novel or TV series, it was at least in line with common sense.

"The death aura on you is not because you are dying, but because you are destined to become the god of death from the moment you were born." Lu Xu tried to organize his words and tried to use concise language to explain the whole story, and then looked at Ji Xiunian, "That's probably what I mean, brother Nian, do you understand?"

Ji Xiunian nodded and then shook his head, and felt that the world was magical.

He never dreamed that his mother would be the god of death.

Ever since he could remember, everyone around him was either dead or injured. Because his parents died young, the elders in his family took him to have his fortune told.

The so-called master swore that Ji Xiunian was an unlucky star, destined to be lonely and die young.

Ji Xiunian himself said that he did not believe in fate, but these words did have an impact on him.

He was very afraid that he was really unlucky, so he rarely got close to others.

Ji Xiunian always thought that the problem was with himself, but he didn't expect that everything was predestined.

Only now did he realize that he really knew nothing about his parents.

"So, do you know where they are now?" When

Ji Xiunian was young, he only vaguely heard that his parents had an accident, but because of his young age, he didn't even see them for the last time.

Now that Lu Xu has mentioned this, Ji Xiunian inexplicably feels that things may not be that simple.

Zhong Huiqing was once the face of the Death Department and the queen of performance at the time. Even if she gave up being the Death God, it is not possible that she would not even know where her soul has gone.

Lu Xu had naturally thought about this a long time ago, and shook his head unconsciously: "The Death Department investigated it specifically at the time, but there were no clues and it ended up in vain."

In vain...

Ji Xiunian couldn't tell what he felt now. If their family were ordinary humans, he might not have thought about these things before. But knowing that his parents had something to do with their death, how could he not think about it.

"If I become the Death God, can I re-investigate this matter?" Ji Xiunian didn't know what it meant to be the Death God, but he just wanted to start investigating.

He could ignore other things, but not his family.

Even though the fate is very shallow, I still hope that I can give them justice.

Ji Xiunian didn't know if his request was too much, and he felt a little upset and irritable.

"Even if you don't become the god of death, I will help you investigate." Lu Xu beside him suddenly spoke, his tone was rare and gentle.

Ji Xiunian looked up at him unconsciously, and he didn't expect Lu Xu to say such a thing.

The night breeze blew through the window, blowing the curtains and bringing a slight coolness. The eighth sister lay on the bed with her legs up in the air, humming.

The more fragmented the sound, the quieter the room seemed.

Ji Xiunian looked at Lu Xu, and didn't know whether he was perfunctory or sincere.

Lu Xu had been in the human world for so many years that he could see Ji Xiunian's doubts at a glance. He shrugged and smiled: "Brother Nian, I'm serious. Whether you are the god of death or not, I will help you investigate this matter. No matter how long it takes, there will always be a day when the truth comes out."

Speaking of which, Zhong Huiqing before she fell in love with a human was somewhat similar to Lu Xu in every aspect. She

was the face of the god of death department, the leader in the god of death industry.

Lu Xu naturally couldn't bear to see such an unclear death of a senior.

Moreover, he just felt that the case of the two people's disappearance was not simple, and there must be something waiting for them to explore.

Lu Xu likes challenges, and the more difficult the thing is, the more he wants to try.

His eyes were firm, and there was comfort in his eyes when he looked at Ji Xiunian.

He is not as innocent as he was at the beginning, but he makes Ji Xiunian feel that they are closer.

He thought Lu Xu would refuse or perfunctorily, but he didn't expect Lu Xu to be so serious.

The previous concealment now seems to be nothing. As long as the current good is real, Ji Xiunian feels that he can ignore it.

"Lu Xu, thank you."

Ji Xiunian said this solemnly, with a grateful and touching tone.

It was already early morning, and the sky outside was getting bright. It would be daybreak soon.

Lu Xu lay down next to Eighth Sister, and spoke in a relaxed tone again: "Actually, there is nothing to thank you for. After all, you are my only friend in the human world. Friends don't need to be so polite, don't you think?"

Only friend...

Only...

Ji Xiunian felt comfortable when he heard this. A certain emotion accumulated in his heart, and he was actually a little moved.

Facing Lu Xu's question, Ji Xiunian just wanted to nod, but Lu Xu changed the subject and continued, "Of course, if you are really moved and want to repay me, then work hard with me to achieve good results. But you don't have to be too stressed, after all, I have already accomplished a lot this quarter, enough for you to have time to get familiar with the work..."

This is not the first time Ji Xiunian heard the word "performance" from Lu Xu's mouth. When he first started taking the elective, Ji Xiunian thought he was doing sales work when he heard him say this. Even though he was still working part-time when he came to participate in the talent show, he never thought that "achieving good results" was Lu Xu's main job.

"So how do we achieve this performance?"

Although Ji Xiunian didn't know what the Grim Reaper did specifically, he knew from the job title that it was probably a job of collecting people.

Thinking about how Lu Xu treated the evil spirits just now, it seemed like a pre-job training for him.

Just as Ji Xiunian thought, Lu Xu quickly answered: "Your letter of authorization hasn't come down yet, so this period is your internship period. I'll take you with me when I take on clients, and you'll learn it after watching a few more times."

"Okay." The former trainee suddenly became a colleague and senior, and was also responsible for his training. No matter how you think about it, it makes people feel that the world is wonderful.

Seeing Ji Xiunian still in a daze, Lu Xu couldn't help but pat the seat next to him: "Come and sleep, you must be tired after a busy day." Lu

Xu said this frankly, and even the invitation was direct and enthusiastic. He half-leaned on the bed, his clothes pulled up a little to reveal half of his slender waist, which was dazzlingly white.

Now there are no secrets between the two of them, and their relationship is much closer than before.

Ji Xiunian didn't hesitate, but just lay down next to Lu Xu, feeling inexplicably satisfied in his heart.

At the beginning, neither of them spoke, and they tacitly felt this kind of silence.

Ji Xiunian didn't know why, but suddenly thought of a very important question for him: "So, how old are you?"

Because of his youthful face, everyone including Ji Xiunian thought Lu Xu was a younger brother, and the information publicly disclosed also said 18.

But if he is the god of death, he should be more than 18 years old.

Ji Xiunian didn't know why he cared so much about Lu Xu's age, but he couldn't help asking: "Thirty? Or, fifty years old?"

There is nothing to hide between friends, Lu Xu told him directly: "More than, I can't remember the exact number, anyway, I have been in this industry for more than two hundred years..."

"More than two hundred years..."

Ji Xiunian felt that Lu Xu was older than him, but he didn't expect that he was more than two hundred years old.

If you count them all, Lu Xu is much older than his grandfather, great-grandfather, or even old lady...

Realizing that he was thinking too much, Ji Xiunian quickly paused in his heart to prevent his thoughts from developing in a weird direction.

"Go to sleep, you can still sleep for a while if you sleep now."

Lu Xu naturally didn't know what Ji Xiunian was concerned about, but just urged him to go to sleep. Just like Ji Xiunian was used to pouring milk for him, Lu Xu was used to seeing him as a human being, and subconsciously felt that Ji Xiunian should have enough sleep.

It must be said that habit is really a subtle thing, even Lu Xu is not immune to it.

But Ji Xiunian felt happy when he heard it, and the corners of his mouth turned away could not help but rise.

No matter what mood Lu Xu was in when he cared about him, as long as he was cared about, that was enough.

He thought he would be too excited to sleep, but he never expected that Lu Xu would sleep soundly beside him.

When Ji Xiunian opened his eyes again, Lu Xu had already gotten up and packed up to leave.

Ji Xiunian vaguely heard the sound of the door closing, and it took him a while to realize that the person was no longer by his side.

Everything that happened last night was like a dream. Ji Xiunian couldn't help but take out his mobile phone and send a message to Lu Xu to ask him what plans he had for today.

He clicked on the hot search and found that his name was actually ranked first with Fan Zeng, and there was a word "explosion" behind it.
