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 364 Part-Time Soul Division

It was quite late when Yue Jiuling got home, because she had eaten a late-night snack with Ya Zi before returning, so it was almost midnight when she got back.

"I'm back~"

Yue Jiuling used her key to open the door, then went to the shoe cabinet to change her shoes before going inside to find someone.

In their bedroom, Yue Jiuxing was watching a TV series on her computer. When she saw Yue Jiuling come in, she looked up at her and said, "Jiuling, you're back! Did you bring us any midnight snacks?"

Lying on the ground, Yue Jiuyue looked up at Yue Jiuling and said, "Yeah, I can already smell it! It smells like barbecue, with cumin and chili!"

"Yes, but I ate it myself and didn't pack it up for you."

Yue Jiuling glanced at the two split souls on the ground, ignoring their displeasure, and called out into the bathroom, "Jiu Nian, are you done?"

"Hmm? Jiuling, you're back. I'm taking a bath. Do you want to come in and soak with me?"

Yue Jiu's voice came from inside the bathroom. She said, "I just turned on the water, so it probably won't be that fast~"

Yue Jiuling had originally intended to call Yue Jiunian out so she could go in and take a shower, but after hearing Yue Jiunian's words, she stopped her. She turned around to grab her pajamas, then pushed open the bathroom door and said, "Alright, let's take a shower together then~"

Watching Yue Jiuling enter the bathroom and take a bath with Yue Jiunian, Yue Jiuyue and Yue Jiuxing, who were outside, stuck out their tongues at Yue Jiuling's back before going back to playing with their own things.

Half an hour later, Yue Jiuling and Yue Jiunian came out of the bathroom. As soon as they came out, they went to blow-dry their hair and then deliberately took over the big bed together.

Seeing that her spot was taken, Yue Jiuxing stood up and said, "Jiuling, I'm sleepy and want to go to sleep~"

“Oh, then you can go to sleep,” Yue Jiuling said, seemingly very agreeable. She pointed to the thick carpet on the floor and said, “You two can sleep on the floor tonight. There shouldn’t be any cockroaches or bugs there.”

"Jiuling, what are you doing? Why do you want us to sleep on the floor?"

Yue Jiuxing felt wronged. She pouted and said, "It's one thing that you didn't bring us any midnight snacks when you came back, but why aren't you letting us go to bed yet?"

"That's right, Jiuling, you're going too far!"

Yue Jiuyue couldn't help but get up, wanting to seek justice for herself.

Yue Jiuling still didn't let them get into bed. She trimmed her nails and then slowly made the bed, saying, "Don't you know what you've done? Why didn't I bring you food or let you sleep in the bed? Don't you know?"

Seeing Yue Jiuling's expression, Yue Jiuxing and Yue Jiuyue, who were originally so confident, instantly became timid and even a little guilty, while Yue Jiunian, who was standing next to them, was secretly laughing.

Yue Jiuxing blinked, trying to play dumb. She moved her bottom closer to the edge of the bed, saying, "What? Jiuling, what are you talking about? I don't know anything, and I don't understand what you're saying~"

"Yeah, Jiuling, can you please stop saying all these weird things? Ugh, we can't understand a word you say!"

Yue Jiuyue is also pretending to be stupid.

Seeing that both of her divided souls were pretending to be stupid, Yue Jiuling laughed. As she took out her phone, she said, "Well, after this trip, you've become thick-skinned, more temperamental, and bolder!"

There was a video on Yue Jiuling's phone. It was a video of a group fight on the street. In the video, the people being beaten were a group of big men, while the people beating them were two girls.

Yue Jiuling opened the video on her phone and showed it to Yue Jiuyue. She said, "You guys are something else. You let Jiu Nian cook at home and then went out to cause trouble. If I hadn't accidentally seen these two videos online, I probably wouldn't have known that you went out and got into a fight."

Yue Jiu Nian didn't know about this at first, because they had already discussed it that night. Jiu Nian would stay home to rest and cook, while they went out to buy groceries and could also go out to play. However, they could go out to play, but they couldn't cause any trouble.

Yue Jiu Nian had already seen the video while she was in the bathroom, and it was Yue Jiu Ling who showed it to her; otherwise, she wouldn't have known about it.

Yue Jiu Nian chuckled softly, then said, "Hehe, Jiu Yue, Jiu Xing, actually I'm quite curious why you two went to fight. Couldn't you have just gone grocery shopping and come back peacefully?"

Yue Jiuling also looked at the two of them with an expression that said, "Wait for your explanation."

When Yue Jiuyue saw the video, she knew she couldn't hide it anymore. She reached into her pocket, pulled out a few hundred-yuan bills, and handed them to Yue Jiuling, saying, "It's because Jiuling is stingy and doesn't give us pocket money, so we went to 'work'!"

"'Working'? What do you mean by that?"

Yue Jiuling took the hundred-yuan bills, counted them, and found that there were actually eight hundred yuan in them. She asked, "What's going on? Tell me the truth."

Yue Jiuyue looked at the money with great reluctance, and then said, "It's like this, we were hired as thugs, four hundred yuan a day."

Yue Jiuxing, who was standing next to her, added, "That's right, they even provided food and lodging, but we only fought one fight before quitting."

"Four hundred a day? That's such a high price! Who hired you? What do you do?"

Yue Jiuling held the money and pressed for details, feeling that there seemed to be something wrong with the part-time job that Yue Jiuyue and the others were doing.
