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 234 List

"Uh, Ryuji, that's not what I meant~"

Yue Jiuling felt a little embarrassed after hearing Ya Zi's words. Actually, when she wasn't familiar with Ya Zi, she also thought that Ya Zi was a very, very bad monster. But after getting to know Ya Zi better, she realized that he wasn't as bad as the legends said. So after hearing Ya Zi's words, she felt that she might have been too prejudiced against the ferocious beasts.

"Hey~ Ryuji, that's not really what I meant~"

Yue Jiuling chased Ya Zi downstairs. Fortunately, Ya Zi wasn't really angry. He just wanted Yue Jiuling to know that those ferocious beasts weren't all as bad as the legends said.

After Ya Zi went downstairs, he said to Yue Jiuling very seriously, "Jiuling, actually Uncle Qiongqi isn't that bad. Rumors aren't always credible, so don't worry. You don't have to believe Uncle Qiongqi, but you can believe me."

At this moment, the tiger spirit also came down. He first said a few words to Brother Quan, and then said to the other restaurant employees, "You can all disperse and do what you're supposed to do."

The employees dispersed after hearing his words, and then Tiger Spirit said to Captain Xia and the other team members, "Everyone, please go back now. Your missing people will be back soon. As for what happens next, Young Master Long will tell you."

Upon hearing his own name, Ya Zi asked, somewhat confused, "Why me?"

"Because I will tell you everything that will happen later, Young Master Long."

The tiger spirit gestured to Ya Zi, who frowned at him but hesitated for a moment before following the tiger spirit.

Yue Jiuling watched as Ya Zi was taken away and wanted to go with him, but Quan Ge stopped her, saying to the management staff, "Everyone, please go back first."

Yue Jiuling looked at Quan Ge, hesitated for a moment, and finally left with Xia Xia and the others. Although she was still a little worried about Ya Zi and Xiao Baicai, she thought that since Ya Zi wanted her to trust him, she would trust him this time.

"Dongfeng, Xiaoyi, let's go back first and wait for Long Er's news."

The colleagues from department A3 quickly left the restaurant, while the colleagues from department Yue Jiuling returned to their own departments.

After returning, Ya Zi also went back not long after, but he came back alone; Xiao Bai Cai did not come back with him.

As soon as Yue Jiuling and the others saw Ya Zi return, they all surrounded him and asked what had happened.

Hidden in the shadows, he wasn't seriously injured when he was captured. As soon as he saw Ya Zi return, he ran up to him and asked, "Long Er, you're back. What did that boss say to you?"

"Yes, why did you have to tell us this alone? Why couldn't we tell the rest of the family?"

"Exactly, have those missing people been found? Are they still alive?"

"What about Little Cabbage? Why isn't he back?"

Mu Xiaoyi, Bai Xinyu, and Ye Dongfeng also squeezed over to ask.

Ya Zi returned to his seat with his phone and a notebook in his hand. He said with a relaxed expression, "Don't rush, ask them one by one."

Seeing his relaxed expression, Yue Jiuling guessed that everything should be resolved, and asked, "Quick, tell me what happened?"

Ya Zi first opened the notebook, then pointed to the list of names written on the first page and said, "None of these people can go back." He then turned to another page and said, "But these people, those who are still alive, were sent away just as I came back."

Ye Dongfeng and Bai Xinyu both craned their necks to look at the notebook, while Yue Jiuling continued to ask, "What about Xiaobaicai? When is he coming back? How is his injury?"

"Little Cabbage's injuries are all healed. But Uncle Qiongqi, yes, that great monster is the ancient ferocious beast Qiongqi. But don't be afraid, he's a good beast and won't do bad things. Look, we were released today, weren't we? It's because he wanted to keep Little Cabbage here to recover from her injuries and wouldn't release her yet. But don't worry, she'll be fine."

Ya Zi knows that everyone is concerned about Xiao Baicai. He said, "I have already told him that he will call us when he wakes up. Now let him rest well."

As he spoke, he suddenly remembered something: "By the way, what about Xu Bei? Didn't he come back with Yin Ni?"

“He went back. When he came back just now, I notified the Xu family and asked them to take him back.”

The hidden voice said, "The Xu family should have a way to revive Xu Bei."

Ya Zi had actually guessed that Xu Bei might have a chance to be resurrected. He nodded and flipped through a few more pages of his notebook, saying, "Okay, it's good that he's back. He was actually innocent. As for why those people were arrested, most of them were just unlucky. As for the rest who died, their evidence is all here. You can see for yourselves. I can only say that they deserved to die."

The notebook was filled with densely packed 'evidence'. After learning that Qiongqi would not harm them or do evil indiscriminately, everyone was less nervous. Ye Dongfeng and Yinni took the notebook and sat down at Yazi's table to look through it, while Mu Xiaoyi and Bai Xinyu also joined in.

Watching them repeatedly look at the list one by one, Yue Jiuling asked Ya Zi curiously, "What do you mean? Does it mean that all those who were killed were guilty and deserved to die? Where are the bodies?"

“The body is long gone,” Ya Zi scratched his head, somewhat hesitant to speak, “Well, you know, my uncle, he did like to eat people, but now he’s picky, he only eats bad people, not good people, so when those cultivators found him, they were just locked up, not eaten. Only Xu Bei was unlucky; he was the only one who was killed, but his soul wasn’t injured, so he has a chance to be resurrected.”
