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 Fifty Naming

Finally, Yue Jiuling, unable to bear the annoyance any longer, told her that she and Qingcheng were old friends, and as for whether the Demon King needed their help, she was still waiting for notification and wasn't sure herself. Only then did she manage to calm Bai Xinyu down.

"Oh, the Demon King is so beautiful, I like him so much. If it weren't for my low cultivation level, I would have applied to become a royal guard long ago."

Bai Xinyu looked at the photos of the Demon King she had secretly taken on her phone, her tone quite disappointed, as if she had missed out on a fortune!

Yue Jiuling rolled her eyes at her, then pulled Xiaobaicai downstairs: "Let's go, don't pay attention to this lovesick fool, she's hopeless."

Little Cabbage, who was being pulled away, blushed a little and whispered with his head down, "Actually, the Demon King is really handsome. It's not just Sister Xinyu who likes him."

Upon hearing Xiaobaicai's words, Yue Jiuling, who had excellent hearing, was immediately shocked. It was all over!

That flamboyant peacock, Qingcheng, is terrifying! Even Xiaobaicai is captivated by him!

In the demon realm, people don't distinguish between male and female or species when choosing a partner. As long as they love each other, they can be together. Even if a sheep and a wolf get married, it's fine, as long as they truly love each other.

So when Yue Jiuling heard that Xiaobaicai liked Qingcheng, she was only slightly shocked. She thought Qingcheng's appearance was really attractive, but she didn't have any other thoughts.

Back in her office, Yue Jiuling took out her phone, intending to ask her good friend Yue Jiunian when she would be back, because she wanted to see her treasure, the pair of short swords, as soon as possible.

"Hey, Jiu Nian, when are you coming back?"

While on the bus, Yue Jiu Nian was slurping instant noodles on the phone. She was probably too hungry, and she said indistinctly as she wolfed down her food, "Almost there, I'm already on the bus. What's the rush? I'm not even in a hurry to get to the exam, why are you in such a hurry?"

Yue Jiuling remembered that Yue Jiunian had to take an exam in the next few days. She chuckled and said, "Oh right, your exam. What are you planning to do? I think it will be a bit difficult for you to pass with your IQ."

"Tsk tsk, what do you mean by 'with my IQ'? Have you forgotten that our IQs are on the same level?"

Yue Jiu rolled her eyes as she looked at her phone, saying with a mix of exasperation and seriousness, "Big sister, please remember this: if I'm an idiot, then you're an idiot too, because we're the same person."

Yue Jiuling was speechless, and at the same time, she cursed herself in her heart for saying such stupid things. She regretted it to the extreme and said, "Okay, okay, it's my fault. I shouldn't have scolded myself. I need to apologize to myself. I'm sorry."

Hearing this on the other end of the phone, Yue Jiu Nian laughed and scolded, "Damn, you're really getting sillier and sillier."

"Alright, hurry up and come back and give me the short sword."

Yue Jiuling got back to the main point: "By the way, let's discuss giving it a name. We've been arguing about it for so many years, but we still haven't given it a name. Why don't we take advantage of this time when everyone is away and come up with a name?"

The short sword became their weapon after Yue Jiuling was split into nine souls. Everyone has wanted to give it a name, but because each of the split souls had a name, and because they all disagreed and were always arguing, no one was willing to accept the name given by the other, so the short sword still doesn't have a name.

Yue Jiu thought of how a bunch of fragmented souls would come out chattering and making a fuss whenever the topic of naming a short sword came up, and she felt a headache coming on. She said, "Okay, let's hurry up before they come back."

As soon as Yue Jiuling saw that she agreed, she immediately said, "Shuang'er, how about Shuang'er?"

Yue Jiu Nian had actually given up the right to name the child this time because it was too much trouble, so she agreed and said, "Okay, whatever you like is fine. I'm too lazy to fight you for it this time. Shuang'er it is."

"Yay! I finally won this time, it was so hard!" Yue Jiuling cried with emotion on the other end of the phone. "After all these years, Shuang'er, you finally have a name!"

Yue Jiu Nian checked her phone's battery level and found it was already at 13%. Then, ignoring Yue Jiu Ling's erratic behavior, she hurriedly said, "My phone's about to die. I don't have time to listen to you cry. Let's talk about it when we get back."
