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...

Ya Zi was also a little confused. He scrolled through his phone to distract himself from thinking about the peach blossom wine and said, "By the way, what time will our car arrive?"

When Ya Zi asked what time her car would arrive at its destination, Yue Jiuling took out her ticket and said, "It should be around midnight. If there's no traffic, that's when it will arrive. If there is traffic, it may be later."

They traveled overnight to L City, and fortunately, everything had been arranged there; otherwise, their hasty journey would have been difficult.

"It's around midnight. Sigh, it's so late. Their people are probably busy too. We don't know if they've caught them by the time we go to help."

Ya Zi got bored on the bus ride, so he started looking for snacks. He said, "Let's eat something first. We're going to have to work overtime later, and I don't know if we'll get any late-night snacks."

Their late-night visit was actually to help capture the ancient corpse that had risen from the dead. According to the detailed information, the ancient corpse seemed to be quite old. They were afraid that it might harm people in L City, so they went to search in a big way and even asked other departments for help and support.

Yue Jiuling was looking at the scenery outside the car window and felt drowsy. Ya Zi saw her dozing off and peeled a strawberry candy for her. He said, "We don't have any durian flavor, strawberry will do. It's sweet and sour, want to try it?"

Yue Jiuling leaned back in her chair, too lazy to reach for the candy. She simply opened her mouth wide and let Ya Zi feed her: "Ah~"

Ya Zi found Yue Jiuling's lazy little appearance adorable. He stuffed a candy into Yue Jiuling's mouth and then said with amusement, "Why are you getting lazier and lazier?"

"Ugh~ I just don't want to move~"

Yue Jiuling sometimes feels that she is already an old monster, and it is okay to be a little lazy, so she doesn't mind being called lazy at all.

After feeding Yue Jiuling candy, Ya Zi was also a little sleepy. He leaned back in his chair and said, "I don't know how long this business trip will last. Lao Wu will be back soon, and I have to go back to the God Realm with him."

Yue Jiuling knew that Ya Zi had many brothers and that they got along well, so she said with a bit of envy, "Oh my, you guys are so much fun, and you get along so well with your brothers. Look at mine, you're always causing trouble for me, what am I like? I even got beaten up today."

The mere mention of today's events made Yue Jiuling unhappy again. She pinched her arm hard, saying in a self-destructive manner, "Just wait, I'll deal with you all properly when I have time!"

Watching Yue Jiuling's 'self-torture' from the side, Ya Zi laughed with a mixture of amusement and pity, saying, "Hahaha~ You guys are really something~"

"What's so interesting about that? I'm furious every single day!"

Yue Jiuling was thinking about having to work overtime later, so she took advantage of the time she still had to doze off for a while. She even pulled Ya Zi to rest with her, saying, "Sleep now, while there's still time. We'll be busy when we get there."

"Okay, I understand."

Ya Zi saw that Yue Jiuling had closed her eyes, so he turned his head to look at her sleeping face.

Actually, Yue Jiuling's real appearance isn't particularly beautiful; she has a delicate, unassuming look that doesn't usually attract attention. But for some reason, Ya Zi just thinks Yue Jiuling is pretty.

Speaking of beautiful women, Ya Zi has seen quite a few. Let's not even talk about the beauties and handsome men in the celestial realm. Just take Qingcheng, the number one beauty in the demon realm. She is much more beautiful than Yue Jiuling. However, Ya Zi doesn't feel much for Qingcheng. He just feels that the person in front of him is different, even though he can't understand why.

'Sigh... Is it because my taste and perspective are different from others?'

As Ya Zi pondered this, he began to wonder if something was wrong with him, but he was just thinking about it casually and had no intention of confessing to Yue Jiuling.

She didn't know how much time had passed before the bus finally stopped. When Yue Jiuling was woken up by Ya Zi, she saw that the passengers inside the bus had already started lining up to get off.

"Are we there yet? Ugh, my butt's starting to hurt from sitting in the car for so long. Oh, right, can you see the person who came to pick us up?"

Yue Jiuling stood up, stretched, and looked out the car window at Ya Zi.

Ya Zi was also looking out the car window. He shook his head and said, "I don't know, there are too many people outside, I can't see anything."
