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 180 Winning the Lottery

Seeing that her owner had agreed, Little Cabbage said to Yue Jiuling and Yazi, "Brother Long, Sister Jiuling, why don't you go back? I'm planning to stay with Grandpa Tree a little longer~"

Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi both knew that Xiao Baicai wanted to chat with Grandpa Tree, so they agreed, since they still had work to do and needed to redeem their prizes the next day.

Yue Jiuling said, "Alright, then you and the duck stay here with Grandpa Tree. Take care of yourself. We'll head back now, and I'll transfer the prize money to you tomorrow after we claim it."

"Okay, thank you for your help."

Little Cabbage watched Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi leave, then squatted down next to Grandpa Tree and turned into a tender little cabbage. Grandpa Tree returned to his original form.

As they were leaving the village, Yue Jiuling said to Ya Zi, "Actually, I'm still a little worried. His spiritual energy has been so unstable lately. What if it attracts some monsters?"

Ya Zi knew that Yue Jiuling was very worried about Xiao Baicai, so he said, "Don't worry, the amulet I left for him is quite effective. Besides, didn't the Pixiu also give him some good luck? He should have a smooth period of time, so don't worry."

"Fine, whatever."

When Yue Jiuling returned to the apartment, it was almost midnight. However, when she got back, Wu Jing was still working in front of the computer, not yet resting.

When Wu Jing saw Yue Jiuling return, she didn't ask her any questions. She simply said, "You're back. I thought you weren't coming back tonight."

Yue Jiuling knew that Wu Jing was a smart person who wouldn't pry into other people's business, so she nodded and said, "Yes, we went out to play all day today. What about you? Did you not go out at all today either?"

Wu Jing nodded and said, "Yes, we haven't gone out. By the way, we'll have work tomorrow, so thank you for your hard work."

"Hmm, it's fine."

The next morning, at seven o'clock, Ya Zi ran up and knocked on Yue Jiuling and Wu Jing's door. Yue Jiuling was still asleep, but Wu Jing was already up.

When Wu Jing opened the door and saw Ya Zi, she asked curiously, "Brother Long, why are you up here so early? Our shift ends at noon."

Ya Zi knew last night that they had work today, it was Yue Jiuling who told him. He walked into the apartment and said, "I know, I came up early because Jiuling and I have other things to do."

At this moment, Yue Jiuling was also awakened by their voices. She got out of bed and said, "Yes, we still have some things to do, so we plan to take care of them as soon as possible."

As she spoke, she headed to the bathroom to wash up: "Young Master Long, wait for me a moment."

In front of outsiders, Yue Jiuling sometimes refers to Ya Zi as Young Master Long.

Because they had work at noon, the two decided to go and claim their prize early and then transfer the money to Xiaobaicai, since they wouldn't have time to do anything else once they got busy.

When Wu Jing heard that they had other things to do in the morning, she said, "Okay, then you need to come back as soon as possible. We need to leave before noon."

"Don't worry, we'll be back soon."

Although they were going to the provincial lottery center to claim their prize, it wasn't too far, so according to their budget, they could definitely be back before midnight, since it was still so early.

"Let's go, I've already found the address for claiming the prize."

Ya Zi had already found the address, so she quickly hailed a taxi and set off.

Meanwhile, at Mr. Xu's villa, a group of moving company people were helping to move things. The villa, which had never allowed anyone to enter without permission before, was now much more crowded.

Mr. Xu felt very uncomfortable watching the moving company people carry a lot of wooden crates into the villa, but he couldn't stop them because they all belonged to Master Li.

Because he was too afraid to live here alone and couldn't move easily, Mr. Xu asked Master Li to move in. However, Master Li wasn't just bringing simple luggage; he was bringing a lot of strange things.

When the last long, coffin-like wooden box was moved into the villa, Mr. Xu knew it was the last item.

He paid the moving company workers, then closed the villa's gate and sighed, "Well, it's a bit of a hassle if someone comes in, but it's still better than living here in danger."
