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 272 Black Mist

"Okay, I'll try my best. Alright, stop making a fuss and go to sleep."

Seeing that it was getting late, Yue Jiuli urged Feng Meng to go to sleep: "Go to sleep early. You have at most one more day. You can probably be discharged from the hospital tomorrow night or the day after tomorrow."

"Really? That's great! I was almost suffocating here, I can finally be discharged!"

Feng Meng was delighted to hear the news. It was Yue Jiuli who had requested that he be hospitalized, so he was waiting for her to arrange his discharge. Feng Meng had thought he might have to wait a few more days before he could be discharged, but he didn't expect Yue Jiuli to say that the next two days would be his discharge date.

"Yes, I know you don't like being here. Don't worry, I'll take care of it for you."

As Yue Jiuli said this, she also glanced at the drawer.

Knowing that his faking illness was about to end and he was about to be discharged from the hospital, Feng Meng was quite excited. He was so happy that he tossed and turned for a long time before finally falling asleep late at night.

Seeing that the idiot had finally fallen asleep, Yue Jiuli felt much relieved, because she was worried that if something unexpected happened later, Feng Meng might be scared to death.

Around midnight, just as Yue Jiuli was dozing off, the drawer she had been carefully observing finally made a sound!

"Click~ Click~ Click~"

In the dimly lit room, Yue Jiuli clearly saw the drawer on the cabinet beside Feng Meng's bed being slowly, bit by bit, pushed out.

Then, after the drawer was fully opened, the gift boxes stored inside were slowly moved out little by little until they were outside the counter!

*Smack!*

The gift box fell off the cabinet!

Yue Jiuli lay on the small bed to the side, coldly watching the gift box perform. She squinted at the gift box and opened the lid herself, and then the bear inside crawled out crookedly.

Xiongxiong doesn't seem to be very coordinated. He walks like a toddler who has just learned to walk, with each step a wobbly gait. I guess he's not being properly controlled.

Just as Xiongxiong walked in this strange way to Feng Meng's bedside, Yue Jiuli, who was standing next to her, finally couldn't stand it anymore. She jumped off the bed and kicked Xiongxiong away!

"Get lost!"

The bear probably never expected that Yue Jiuli would discover it. It was caught off guard and kicked away, crashing into the white wall next to it, and it seemed quite bewildered.

Yue Jiuli frowned when she saw Xiongxiong being kicked away and crashing into the wall, with a lot of black mist emanating from his body: "Eek~ what the hell is this?"

The black mist grew thicker and thicker, quickly enveloping the entire teddy bear. Then it regained control, and the bear stood up and pounced on Yue Jiuli!

"Tsk~ Do you think you're made of iron?"

When Xiong Xiong pounced on Yue Jiuli, Yue Jiuli not only didn't dodge, but even reached out and grabbed its neck: "Tsk~ What a nuisance~"

The teddy bears are made of very soft materials. Yue Jiuli had already touched that texture in the morning. However, when she grabbed its neck again, she found that the soft feel had disappeared. The soft bear had now turned into an iron bear as hard as steel!

When Yue Jiuli touched the incredibly hard bear, her expression changed. Before, she had a look of disgust, but now she looked even more disdainful.

"Ha~ A mere trick, laughable~"

Yue Jiuli pinched Xiongxiong's neck, which could be described as being as strong as steel, and then squeezed it hard with her five fingers forming claws. The bear's neck snapped with a 'crack', and then returned to the feel of soft fabric.

Yue Jiuli chuckled as she looked at the bear's head she had snapped off: "What? Is that all? Hurry up and use whatever else you have~ Don't waste time."

As soon as she finished speaking, all the black mist that had been enveloping Xiong Xiong gathered together, forming a ball that floated above the ward like a black cloud. Yue Jiuli stood on the ground, looking up at it.

Yue Jiuli looked up at the black mist from beneath, but she couldn't figure out what it was. She stroked her chin and asked, "Hey, this is interesting. I can't even figure out what you are. Come on, don't waste time, I want to sleep~"
