The Red List - Hualian Secret Agents AU

The HOB agency (Heaven Official's Blessing) is a government organization specialized in solving bloody, mysterious, and highly dangerous cases. It's usually directed towards resolving issues caused by underground mafias and extremely skilled criminals whose actions would have serious repercussions both in the country and among its inhabitants.

Xie Lian, known by the codename 'Prince of Xianle,' is an elegant, astute man and undoubtedly one of the agency's finest minds. However, due to deeply personal and tormenting issues that cannot be disclosed, he has been suspended from agency activities twice. He came close to an official expulsion if not for his unparalleled and irreplaceable competence.

With a tarnished reputation, Xie Lian returns to active duty after the conclusion of his suspension. By luck or mere misfortune, he is assigned an ambitious case that will risk both his personal and love life to clear his checkered record from the agency's profile.
