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 518 Find the Answer

Bai Xinyu was patrolling the streets when she received the call, so as soon as she heard Yue Jiuling's call, she immediately rushed back. She said, "No way, you found it so quickly?"

"Well, actually it's not my achievement, it's Young Master Long's. By the way, Young Master Long is back."

"Oh, I see. I'll go back to find you now."

Bai Xinyu hung up the phone and then walked towards the theater.

However, just as she was returning, a kitten ran out from where she had been. The kitten looked at Bai Xinyu's departing figure with a look of regret in its eyes.

When Bai Xinyu returned to the entrance of the theater, she saw Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi carrying a large crocodile and waiting for her there.

"Wow, this crocodile is huge! So, can we eat it tonight?"

Bai Xinyu looked at the crocodile monster's corpse, then said with drooling, "Although crocodiles aren't real fish, their meat is still quite delicious, and since it had some cultivation, it was even more delicious."

“Yes, that’s what I was thinking too. Let’s take it back first, and then notify Hidden Ones and the others to come and have dinner together.”

Yue Jiuling also seemed very happy.

Seeing that Yue Jiuling and Bai Xinyu both looked very hungry, Ya Zi suggested, "Why don't we take it to Xiao Baicai's restaurant and have the staff cook it for us? We won't have to do it ourselves, and everyone can eat it, okay?"

"Great idea! I'll send a message in the group right now."

Upon hearing Ya Zi's suggestion, Bai Xinyu immediately agreed. She took a picture of the crocodile monster's corpse and posted it in the group chat, saying, "Time for a midnight snack! Let's take it to Xiao Baicai's restaurant to be cooked! Everyone, come quick!"

Ye Dongfeng was the first to reply: Wow, you guys caught it?

Ye Dongfeng: That's great! Take it to Xiaobaicai's restaurant to be processed. That's fine. You guys go first, Yinni and I will be there soon.

Hidden: ! You caught it so quickly?

Hidden: Okay, we'll be right there. Xiao Yi has gone to the underworld, but she should be back soon.

Yue Jiuling: Okay, actually we didn't catch him, it was Young Master Long who caught him. Oh right, I forgot to mention, Young Master Long is back.

Bai Xinyu: Yes, yes, thanks to Young Master Long arriving in time, otherwise we wouldn't have had any midnight snacks, hahaha.

Long Shao: Hi everyone, did you miss me? I'm back~

Hidden: Tsk tsk, you're back just in time. But it's good, at least you're back at work. You have no idea, you missed two of our cases!

Young Master Long: Two? So, are they married now?

Ye Dongfeng: It's about time to get married. So, the timing of your return is just a coincidence. But it doesn't matter, it's good that you're back.

Yue Jiuling: Oh right, I need to tell Xiaobaicai and Ahui, I wonder if they're asleep yet @Xiaobaicai @Ahui...

Hidden: Oh right, we came straight back to the dorm without notifying them. I'll call Ahui.

Bai Xinyu: Then I'll call Xiaobaicai and tell them first.

Yue Jiuling: What about Xiaoyi? By the way, what was she doing in the underworld? Didn't she go there once before?

Bai Xinyu: Exactly, you guys are all so weird, it's really speechless.

Hidden: Well, let's wait until Xiaoyi comes back before we talk about this. After all, we still don't have any evidence, even though we believed what that earth spirit said.

Ye Dongfeng: Yes, so let's wait for Xiaoyi's evidence to come back before we talk about it.

Bai Xinyu: ? You guys are acting weird. Never mind, let's meet up at Xiaobaicai's restaurant first.

Meanwhile, Mu Xiaoyi, who was being watched by others, had already learned the answer she sought in the underworld. Looking at the ghost messenger who had shown her the little book, she said, "So, if his lifespan hasn't ended, he can't be judged?"

"Yes, this guy was supposed to live to be fifty-two, it's still too early for him, so he died in vain."

The ghost messenger said matter-of-factly, "So, you'd better not interfere in his affairs. The underworld has its own rules. I can show you his Book of Life and Death, but nothing else."

"Okay, actually I just came to see the Book of Life and Death, that's all I need. Thank you for your help."

Mu Xiaoyi returned the notebook to the ghost messenger and thanked him.
