I'm Investigating妖怪Cases in the Human Realm

As a fake half-demon, Yue Jiuling feels that living in the human realm is actually pretty good. However, this is only true if she can retrieve her original body and separated soul. There's no c...

Chapter 122 Cooking

"Alright, it's all done now. Let's serve it out, and our first dish for today will be a success!"

Yue Jiuling scooped the cooked spicy chicken into a dish and then continued cooking the next dish.

"Wow~ What delicious food is Jiuling making? I want some too~"

Suddenly, Yue Jiuxing rushed into the kitchen with her hair all messy. She had been drawn in by the aroma from the kitchen as soon as she woke up and was clamoring for something to eat.

Yue Jiuling rolled her eyes at her and said, "Eat, eat, all you know is eating. What else can you do besides eat?"

Yue Jiuxing looked at the spicy chicken on the plate with a very self-righteous expression and said, "Besides eating, I also get hungry~"

"Tsk, you idiot, just get lost!"

Yue Jiuling waved her hand dismissively, trying to shoo Yue Jiuxing away, but at that moment, another person ran into the kitchen.

Yue Jiuyue also looked like she had just woken up. She ran in barefoot without even putting on her shoes: "Wow~ I knew Jiuling had delicious food here. I smelled the aroma as soon as I got up~"

Yue Jiuling didn't want to pay attention to these two idiots. Holding the plate of food, she avoided them and said, "What are you doing? Did I say I was going to give you some? Get out of my way. This dish is for me and Shi Tou. There's no room for you."

Upon hearing Yue Jiuling's words, Yue Jiuxing immediately hugged Yue Jiuling's arm and began to whine, "Oh, Jiuling, please let us eat with you. Look how much food you made, the two of you can't possibly finish it all."

"That's right, that's right, let us help you solve this dish."

Yue Jiuyue also squeezed over to curry favor with Yue Jiuling.

Stone watched their interaction from the side and then slipped away. He silently picked up his fried egg and left the kitchen.

Yue Jiuling felt annoyed just looking at Yue Jiuxing and Yue Jiuyue. She said coldly, "You two have the nerve to come asking me for food? Do you really think I've forgotten what happened last night?"

Yue Jiuxing and Yue Jiuling hadn't forgotten what happened last night, but they didn't want to be punished anymore, so they tried their best to please Yue Jiuling:

"Oh, Jiuling, we really know we were wrong, please forgive us, we'll never run off with other people again~"

"Yes, yes, we already know we were wrong, so please let us eat together~"

Yue Jiuling looked at the two guys trying to curry favor with her, then sneered, "Heh~ Eat together? You wish! I worked so hard to make this dish, why should I give it to you two idiots?"

As she was about to take the plate of spicy chicken out, Yue Jiuxing shamelessly tugged at her sleeve and said, "No! We're so hungry! Jiuling, please have pity on us!"

Yue Jiuling wasn't actually unwilling to feed them; she was just deliberately teasing the two split souls. So when she saw them tugging at her clothes, she didn't say anything, but she still kept a cold face and didn't speak to them.

Seeing Yue Jiuling's attitude, Yue Jiuyue knew she had been forgiven, so she eagerly went into the kitchen to help, saying, "Oh dear, Jiuling is so busy all by herself, let me help out~"

Upon seeing what Yue Jiuyue was doing, Yue Jiuxing followed suit: "Me too, me too! Jiuling works so hard cooking, I want to help too!"

Yue Jiuling tacitly accepted the help of the two divided souls, but still didn't want to pay attention to them. She quickly put down the dish and went into the kitchen to cook two more dishes.

Yue Jiuxing and Yue Jiuyue knew that Yue Jiuling wasn't really angry anymore, so they secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They couldn't help it; they were still a little afraid when facing an angry Yue Jiuling.

Wow, looks like today's meal is quite lavish!

Shi Tou looked at the dishes on the table, then at Yue Jiuling and said, "Jiuling, Jiuling, you made these dishes really well. Could you teach me sometime?"

Yue Jiuling picked up her chopsticks, ready to start eating. She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll teach you when I have time."

She knew that Stone would probably get bored staying at home all the time as a monster, so she wanted him to learn more and do what he liked.

"Okay, once I've learned how, I'll apply for a chef position at a restaurant," Stone said earnestly, biting the end of his chopsticks. "I've made up my mind. I want to be a chef in the human world first, and then go back to the demon world to play when I've had my fill of fun~"
