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 508 Something's Wrong

After listening to Mu Xiaoyi's analysis, Bai Xinyu thought for a moment and deduced the girls who had eaten fried chicken with the murderer, saying, "Those girls must have been going the same way, because their school is right in front of the victim's shop."

"Indeed, it was right when school let out, and there were people eating at the fried chicken shop across the alley."

Mu Xiaoyi pointed at the video from that day with the mouse and said, "They were all sent by the police. I watched them once."

Hearing the two of them arguing, Yinni said, "Xiaoyi, if you want to summon the spirit, then go ahead. You can ask the deceased. Xinyu, you and Dongfeng watch the video again and see if the deceased usually goes into the alley or passes through that alley."

"Okay, let me see."

At this moment, Bai Xinyu also felt that perhaps Mu Xiaoyi's summoning of the spirit could reveal something, so she went to watch the surveillance video.

After Mu Xiaoyi was able to summon the soul, she pulled Yue Jiuling aside and said, "Jiuling, come with me to the underworld. Actually, I tried to summon the soul secretly just now, but I couldn't. So I suspect that the deceased may no longer be in the human world, but has gone to the underworld."

"Ah, so you've already had your spirit summoned. Alright then, I'll go to the underworld with you."

Yue Jiuling originally planned to watch the video with Bai Xinyu, but now she simply decided to go to the underworld with Mu Xiaoyi to find the ghosts of the dead.

Yue Jiuling watched as Mu Xiaoyi opened the Gate of Hell and stepped into the eerie Ghost Realm, saying, "I wonder if we can find Eleven. If Eleven were here, we could ask him for help."

"Yes, but they're probably busy during the National Day holiday. Let's look for other ghost messengers."

After entering the underworld, Mu Xiaoyi immediately went to find the nearby ghost messengers. Luckily, they ran into a ghost messenger who was about to take a ghost away for interrogation. Because they often met, this ghost messenger recognized Yue Jiuling and Mu Xiaoyi. When he saw them, he asked, "Hey, how did you get in here? Is there something you need?"

"Oh, it's like this, brother. We've come across a tricky case and we're looking for the deceased. Could you please help us find him?"

Mu Xiaoyi grabbed the ghost messenger and asked for help.

The ghost messenger was a straightforward person. He said, "Sure, I'm free anyway. We caught this one today. We can take him for interrogation later. Tell me, which ghost are you looking for? I'll find it for you."

"Uh, it's that one that was dismembered and deep-fried..."

Mu Xiaoyi quickly gave the deceased's name and asked the ghost messengers for help. Because they knew the manner of death and the name, the ghost messengers were able to quickly find where the deceased's ghost was.

"Oh, it's this guy. He died a pretty tragic death. Because he was wrongfully killed, he's still wandering around the City of the Wrongfully Dead. You should go directly to the City of the Wrongfully Dead to look for him. The brothers there are also there, so you should be able to find him easily."

The ghost messenger pointed in a direction behind him and said, "You all know where the City of the Wrongfully Dead is, right? Go find it yourselves. I'm leaving now."

"Okay, thank you."

Yue Jiuling thanked the ghost messenger, then led Mu Xiaoyi toward the City of the Wrongfully Dead. As they walked, she said, "Tsk tsk, the ghost realm is quite cold in winter. But since the deceased is in the City of the Wrongfully Dead, he probably didn't do anything wrong, right? After all, he's in the City of the Wrongfully Dead. He probably didn't have any grudge against the murderer, right?"

"How would you know? Maybe it wasn't a major grudge, but a minor grudge. It's hard to say. Maybe it was just a minor grudge, and then the murderer wanted to kill him?"

Mu Xiaoyi still felt something was wrong. She said, "Anyway, I think the murderer must have had a grudge against the victim. Even if it was a small grudge, it was still a grudge."

"Okay, you have a point. Let's find the deceased as soon as possible."

While feeling the low temperature of the ghost realm, Yue Jiuling rubbed her hands and sniffled, saying, "My god, it's really cold. At least we have the sun in the human realm. It's so cold here. Let's hurry up and find the dead, ask them, and then leave."
