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...
Bai Xinyu saw the chat windows on the computer and said with some surprise, "Tsk tsk, I thought you were just investigating that street and its vicinity, but I didn't expect you to be investigating the entire J City~"
"Seriously? You're going to investigate the entire city of J?"
Yue Jiuling, who was listening nearby, was also surprised. She leaned closer to the computer and said, "No wonder it took you so long. It turns out you had to negotiate with so many departments. But is it really necessary to investigate the entire city of J?"
"Yes, actually I was originally thinking of just checking the nearby streets, but when I thought about that person's counter-tracking, I felt that it would be better to expand the scope."
Mu Xiaoyi did this because she wanted to close the case as soon as possible. However, investigating an entire city would be much more complicated, so she needed the cooperation and assistance of many departments.
"Alright, let's see how many we haven't negotiated with yet. Let's see if we know anyone who can help us talk to them."
Yue Jiuling was also convinced, but she understood Mu Xiaoyi's thoughts and personality, so she decided to help her out.
"There aren't many left, just a few more districts to go, but I can handle it. Luckily, they are usually very willing to cooperate with our department."
"It's good that they're willing to help; the problem is that they're not willing to cooperate."
Ya Zi only remembered that he had asked Xiao Baicai for help earlier when they were almost back in the dormitory. He and Xiao Baicai were walking behind Ye Dongfeng and Yin Ni, keeping a distance between them. When he saw that Yin Ni and Ye Dongfeng were walking with their heads down and playing on their phones and hadn't noticed him, he secretly put his arm around Xiao Baicai's shoulder and said, "By the way, Xiao Baicai, have the results of the broken sword I asked you to test come out yet?"
When Xiaobaicai was suddenly hugged by Yazi, she thought he was going to say something to her. But when she heard Yazi's question, she remembered the broken sword from before.
He nodded and said, "Oh, it's that broken sword. The test results came out last night, but I was doing something else and forgot to message you."
"And what was the result?"
Ya Zi was eager to know the test results.
Xiao Baicai took out her phone and flipped through the information inside, saying, "I have saved the pictures. I'll send them to you now. The blood on that broken sword belongs to only one person, and it's from a human with cultivation. There are several fingerprints and palm prints on it, and there's also some strange aura."
However, I only detected two that were human, and one that resembled a feline or canine. The last one was very strange; it didn't match any animal or human at all. I couldn't discern whether its scent or the patterns it left behind were palm prints or something else.
Ya Zi received the test results from Xiao Baicai. The test results were very detailed, and there were patterns, fingerprints, palm prints and so on that were very clear. However, when he saw one of the pictures, he still showed a slight surprise and doubt.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Next time, Brother Long will treat you to something delicious!"
After Ya Zi finished reading the results, he patted Xiao Baicai on the shoulder and said...
"Mmm, thank you, Brother Long~"
Little Cabbage is chatting on his phone with Grandpa Tree and his duck friend. According to him, under Grandpa Tree's guidance, his duck friend has started to learn to recognize and type, and now they video chat with him from time to time.
Ya Zi saw that Xiao Baicai was chatting happily with the duck and said, "I didn't expect that duck to be so smart. It learned all this so quickly. It seems that it's not far from becoming a spirit."
"Hehe~ Yeah, I can't wait to see him again, when he'll have turned into human form~"
Little Cabbage was very happy, even a little smug, because the clever duck was his friend!
They chatted as they walked and soon returned to their dormitory. Ye Dongfeng and Yinni had already washed up and were preparing to rest.
Ya Zi looked at the test results on her phone, hesitated for a long time, and finally sent a message to a friend in the human world.
After sending the message, he didn't wait for a reply and went to wash up and prepare to rest.
Because that friend was the old antique who had taken him in at the beginning, and the old antique was probably being visited by people in a museum at this time, so he had no time or ability to reply to his messages. Therefore, Ya Zi felt at ease and went to sleep without caring about anything else.
Meanwhile, Yue Jiuling, Bai Xinyu, and Mu Xiaoyi, who were at the management office, had finally finished their work and were on their way home.
