Nine to Five, Snuggling Up to an Evil God

You Xi just wants to lie flat. He wakes up one day to find he's become a low-ranking employee at the Special Investigations Bureau in another world. A typical workday: 007 hours, no days off, and a 5% survival rate after two years. You Xi: ... I quit. I have to quit! At least he falls in love. His boyfriend is handsome and gentle, and even agrees to save up with him for the penalty for breaking his employment contract. You Xi consoles himself: love first, then lie flat. I have to get at least one of those two! But it doesn't take long for things to change... On his first day at work, blood fills a sealed room. Frowning, You Xi picks up a tentacle from the corner. "What's going on? Who's roasting squid in a place like this?" His coworker stares at the enormous eye on the tentacle: ??? ...That very night, You Xi is promoted to team leader of the investigation squad. In his second week, chunks of flesh break apart on an altar. Pinching his nose, You Xi steps over a fish head the size of a human head. "What's that awful fishy smell? Why would the culprit keep seafood here?" His boss listens to the fish head's shrill screams: ?? ...The next day, You Xi is transferred to the operations division and becomes its youngest director. The third month, the fourth month, the fifth month... You Xi looks apologetically at his boyfriend. "The deputy director's resignation penalty has gone up fivefold... Should we save up a little more?" His boyfriend, Huo Yuxun, shoves an unidentified corpse a little farther into the wall. His smile stays fixed at thirty degrees as he gazes calmly at You Xi. "It's okay, darling. You'll get everything you want." Later, You Xi returns home, utterly defeated, with his appointment as director-general in hand. When he opens the door, shadows spread behind Huo Yuxun, trembling as they blanket everything. In a daze, You Xi hears indescribable murmurs, as if they come from the distant stars and yet are right beside his ear... "...▇Darling▇you'll▇never▇have to▇work▇again▇[proud]▇" You Xi: ??? H-help!
