After a few months my body started to act weird. At first it was some mild occasional fever, weight loss and a pale skin. I consulted a local doctor he prescribed me some vitamin tablets. Then I ignored the signs and continued my work. I got my daily cases and solved it.
But even after 8 months the symptoms didn't stop, it persisted.
Then one day, my stomach started to bulge, my bones started to ache. Night sweatings and high fever all symptoms came down on me. That's when I reached a bigger hospital and ran a diagnostic test.
Then, it is proven that I have blood cancer. I was immediately admitted the hospital for treatment. It turned out that I came late. I was in the late stage of blood cancer.
When I explain my earlier cases he came to a conclusion that the lingering radiations of the nuclear plant is the reason reason that the blood cells divide unnaturally. Hence I got blood cancer. I asked if they can cure me but they said no. Due to my ignorance, lack of foresight I had been moved to this state. They said they can only prolong my life but not outright cure.
That made me pause. A question formed in my mind.
Is there anything else I want to achieve in my life? Is there someone waiting for me? And if yes is that worth extending my lifetime by a few years?
The answer to all those question is no
Looking back I have made not so many friends. Nothing I have always worked alone. Except for my colleagues. So I accepted my fate.
In the next year while I was in the hospital with nothing to do, I conducted so class sessions to some college students helped my colleagues with their cases by giving opinions on the cases. But there was so much time so for once in a wild I read some lightnovels, anime and manga.
I got engrossed in it that the only time I stop reading it was when my colleagues came to me for opinion.
Well, what can I say a soon-to-be-dead-man can do whatever to die without any regrets. But what I considered as a real disappointment is that... I'm gonna die a virgin!!!
Can't be helped, I suppose.

THIRD PERSON POV
The hospital ward is restless for the past few hours.
One of the intelligent detective is going to die that day.
A young man with dark eyes and black hair was lying in the bed with a pale skin as pale as a paper.
At that moment, the hospital doctors and nurses are standing around. One of the nurse was holding a tray near his mouth as constantly vomited blood. Then after what felt like an eternity for the man the vomiting stopped as he relaxed a sank into the bed as his pulse readings in the nearby machine gradually decreased.
'Is this how am I going to die?' the man thought as his vision started blur.
'Even after accomplishing things that others didn't even dreamed about, I feel like I haven't even started to live' he thought as his parents' last moments flashed across his mind.
'I wonder if the reincarnation stuff I have read in the lightnovels are real. It..would be good...if its actually true.' the man thought as he started to feel a wave coldness across his body.
His vision became dark as the young man died in the hospital.
***
The young man who had died in earth suddenly opened his eyes.
What he saw was dark just plane empty darkness. He felt cramped and warm from his surroundings. He started heard faint incomprehensilbe word and scream?
'Wait, wait, wait am I being reborn?' a thought crossed his mind.
'Does that means reincarnation, Gods actually exist?' He thought as he felt like he was being pushed back from his foot.
'Okay, okay I'm going to be ejected from the womb.' he thought as a surge excitement coursed through him.
Soon he was born.
The first thing he saw was a woman with pale with skin, white hair and bright, vivid red eyes in a white attire.
"*Congratulations, mam. It's a boy*" the woman said.
(A/N: *..* means incomprehensible language or words)
The baby who is in the hands of white-haired woman slowly opened his eyes and saw a pair of glowing red eyes.
The woman deliberately passed the baby to his mother. That was when he saw his mother face.
What he saw made him pause.
'Wait.... What!?' The woman infront of him has purple eyes and horns with sharp, delicate features with pale almost porcein skin.
"*Oh..oh..unlucky boy..truly an unlucky one.*" The woman with purple eyes and horns said.
"*Does that mean the I can dispose of him?*" The white-haired woman asked.
"*Well...yes..throw him infront of the orphanage at outskirts of the country*" the purple horned woman said.
"*But still he is just a baby. Can't you reconsider this. I know you work at the red light district. Can't take care of the baby. But still he is just a baby.*" The white-haired woman said with a displeased look.
"*What do you expect me to do!? Raise him in a red light district knowing that his mother is a succubus sult pleasuring men all day. I don't even know if I can feed him regularly. Or even get money enough for raising him*" The purple horned woman shouted with tears in her eyes with a furious tone.
"*Okay, okay, I understand, Shirl. So, cool down you have just given birth don't push yourself to much.*" The white-haired said.
"*You will put him in the outskirts of the country after I have fed him. Right?*" She said as she latched her son to her breast and started feeding him.
"*Right.*" The white-haired woman reluctantly accepted.
'Wait, it seems they are fighting? But why? Why can't I understand anything?well whatever. Huh it's sweet' the boy thought while drinking milk directly from his mother's breast without knowing that this is his first and last time getting breastfed by his mother.
