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 498 Empathy

"Alright, sigh, let's leave this matter aside for now. Let's wait until Ya Zi returns from inquiring about the inner demons in the Heavenly Realm before we talk about it again."

Yue Jiuling rubbed her temples, looking quite troubled, and said, "I'm going to rest for a bit. If there's nothing else, don't bother looking for me."

"Okay, we understand."

Yue Jiuzai waved to Yue Jiuling and said, "Go to sleep. I'll wake you up when it's time to eat."

Okay~

Yue Jiuling first went to the bathroom to take a shower, and after she finished, she took her phone and went back to the bedroom to rest.

...

In a backward and remote town, Yue Jiuxing and Yue Jiuyue, drenched in sweat, struggled to their feet from the floor of a local inn. They pulled out their phones to send a message, only to find there was no signal, and in frustration, they threw their phones away.

"Thump! Thump!"

"Ugh, I'm going to die! What did Jiuling do? I thought I was going to die just now! Damn it, I feel so uncomfortable all over!"

Yue Jiuxing threw her phone on the floor, then pushed Yue Jiuyue next to her and said, "Damn it, there's no signal in this crappy place. If we want to go back, we have to wait for tomorrow's train. This is just too much!"

Yue Jiuyue was also dizzy and in pain from the 'empathy' she had just experienced. She struggled to climb from the floor onto the bed next to her and said, "Damn it, it hurts so much! I just fell off the bed because of the pain. What did Jiuling do? I'm going to die."

"Ugh, I'm so tired, it's killing me."

Yue Jiuxing climbed into bed as well. She looked at her phone on the floor and said, "This lousy network and signal are terrible! How can it be so bad? We can't even text Jiuling to ask what's going on. It's infuriating!"

"That's right, oh my god, I can't move, I feel so uncomfortable all over, I can't take it anymore, I need to sleep for a while."

Because the divided souls are connected to the main soul Yue Jiuling, they will all sense anything that happens to her. Therefore, they are aware of everything Yue Jiuling has experienced.

Just as Yue Jiuxing and her friend were getting ready to go to sleep, they suddenly heard someone knocking on the door. Judging from the voice outside, it was Sister Qing.

Sister Qing said through the door, "Miss Yue, are you there? It's time to eat, come out and eat."

"We're not eating anymore, you guys eat, we're not hungry yet."

After all that commotion, Yue Jiuxing and Yue Jiuyue had no appetite whatsoever. All they wanted to do was rest, so they said they wouldn't go eat.

"Well, alright then, you guys can rest now."

When Sister Qing heard them say they weren't going to eat, she quickly left.

Hearing Qingjie's footsteps as she left, Yue Jiuxing said weakly, "I can't go on anymore. I need to rest properly, otherwise I might not be able to get on the bus tomorrow."

“Yeah, this crappy place only has one train a day, and it’s so early. We missed it today, and we can’t miss it again tomorrow, or we’ll have to fly back ourselves.”

Yue Jiuyue, clutching the tattered blanket from the small hotel, said, "Let's sleep, I'm so tired."

...

Inside the management office of Department A1, after Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi left, everyone went back to their lazy mode and slacked off in the office. However, not long after, they discovered that Bai Xinyu had woken up in the break room.

"Hmm... Where am I?"

When Bai Xinyu woke up in the lounge, she was still a little dazed, because she had no idea why she was lying there.

She got up and looked around, realizing she was in the break room inside the tea room, so she got up and tried to leave the office.

"Hey, Xinyu, you're finally awake! I'll go tell everyone!"

Upon seeing Bai Xinyu emerge from the break room, Ahui, who had been mopping the floor, immediately ran out excitedly and shouted to the people in the office, "Sister Xinyu is awake! Everyone come quick!"

"What? She's awake? That's wonderful!"

Upon hearing the news, Mu Xiaoyi immediately turned around to look behind her, and sure enough, she saw Bai Xinyu in the office.

"Oh, Xinyu, you're finally awake! We were so worried!"

Mu Xiaoyi jogged over to Bai Xinyu's side and said, "Come on, sit down for a bit, let me take a look."

"No, what happened to me? Why are you all so happy that I woke up? And how did I end up sleeping in the break room?"

Bai Xinyu is still unaware of what's wrong with her, because she had already lost consciousness when she was invaded by demonic energy.

Seeing Bai Xinyu's confusion, Mu Xiaoyi and the others knew that she didn't remember her past, so they all gathered around and told her the truth, including how Yue Jiuling had saved her with a secret technique.

Afterwards, Yinni said, "Hey, luckily Jiuling went to see the Demon King back then, and the Demon King taught her a secret technique, otherwise you'd probably still be going crazy right now~"

"No way, such a thing happened? How come I didn't know about it?"

Bai Xinyu was incredulous when she heard this, because she really had no memory of it at all.

Ye Dongfeng also said, "Yes, yes, if it weren't for those two, Xinyu would still be insane. But this demonic energy is really too powerful. We've tried many methods but haven't been able to get rid of it."

"Exactly, we were so worried back then."

Xiao Baicai also said, and he even dug out an old video and said, "Sister Xinyu, look at how you looked back then, it was really terrifying."
