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 Thirty-Eight: Falling into the Trap

"Yue Jiuling! Where are you?"

As soon as Qingcheng rushed in, he shouted Yue Jiuling's name, but no one responded. When he saw the blood mist in the villa's living room, he immediately understood the situation.

The Blood Demon was also stunned when she saw Qingcheng and Qiyou. She only knew that Yazi and the other person would come to capture her, but she did not expect that the Demon King of the Demon Realm would also come to cause her trouble.

The Blood Demon asked in surprise, "Demon King? What are you doing here?"

With a stern face, Qingcheng pointed at the cloud of blood mist and said, "Blood Demon, my demon realm and your demon realm have always kept to ourselves. What do you mean by this?"

Blood Demon snorted coldly: "Hmph~ You are right, but Yue Jiuling has always been an enemy of my Demon Realm, and Yazi is from the Heavenly Realm. I think the Demon Realm has no right to interfere if I want to kill them. Besides, Yue Jiuling is no longer considered a member of the Demon Realm."

"What do you mean she's not from the demon realm? As long as Yue Jiuling is still a demon, she is someone I must protect!" Qingcheng said angrily.

Qi You also said, "Blood Demon, are you planning to start a war between the two realms?"

"Hmph! So you want to fight? Do you think we demons are afraid of your monster realm?"

The Blood Demon isn't afraid of stirring up trouble. In fact, the Demon Realm has been itching to cause trouble for years, but it just hasn't found an excuse yet.

Upon hearing this, Qingcheng immediately flew into a rage. He no longer cared about outnumbering the weak and called out to Qiyou to attack the Blood Demon: "Go! Only by killing her can Yue Jiuling come out."

In the forest, after a great battle, Yue Jiunian finally won. After the rat demons were defeated, Yue Jiunian did not kill them, but simply chased them away.

"Sigh, fighting is so tiring. If their cultivation levels weren't so low, I might not be able to beat them in my current state."

The victor, Yue Jiu Nian, climbed a big tree, intending to spend the night there, since sleeping in a tree was much safer than sleeping under it.

Because of the poor signal in the mountains, she had turned off her phone for the past few days. Now that she was climbing a tree high, Yue Jiu Nian turned her phone back on. Unexpectedly, she received dozens of calls and more than a dozen text messages as soon as she turned it on!

Yue Jiu Nian was shocked when she saw the messages on her phone, because they were all sent by her adoptive father, Jiang Hu, and his family. They included greetings and information about the exam dates at school.

Seeing that her phone signal was still okay, Yue Jiu Nian replied to their message, saying she would go home as soon as possible.

After sending the message, Yue Jiu Nian turned off her phone again. She calculated the time and realized that she would be taking the college entrance examination in the human world in just over half a month. Although she knew she didn't know anything, she still had to take the exam. So she decided to search for two more days. If she still couldn't find it within those two days, she would have to go back to City C.

Within the Blood Mist Space:

After being trapped inside the formation, Ya Zi and Yue Jiu Ling found themselves in an alternate dimension. This dimension seemed to be in the world of demons, filled with a suffocating and oppressive demonic aura. Even the sky was dark and gloomy, without a trace of sunlight.

They were currently in what appeared to be a jungle, as Yue Jiuling could see the forest and magical beasts not far away.

"Damn it, we've fallen for their trap!"

Ya Zi said with distress, "What should we do? This formation doesn't seem to be an ordinary one. It probably won't be easy to break."

Yue Jiuling also said with a solemn expression, "Yes, Qingcheng probably knows we are trapped. However, if the two of them can work together to kill the Blood Demon, we can get out as soon as possible. But if the Blood Demon escapes, then we will have to rely on ourselves."

Ya Zi understood what Yue Jiuling was saying, but the Blood Demon was too cunning, and killing her would indeed be difficult.

So in order to get out as soon as possible, Yue Jiuling and the other two decided to start breaking the formation from inside.

The problem is that the formation is actually an alternate dimension, and we have no idea where the core of the formation is. This is a bit of a headache.

As Yue Jiuling was wondering what to do, she suddenly noticed several magical beasts running out of the jungle. These beasts charged forward ferociously, clearly intending to attack Yue Jiuling and her companions.

Ya Zi looked at the menacing monsters and said impatiently, "Tsk, it seems they don't welcome us. It's time to make our move."

Yue Jiuling also summoned her pair of short swords: "Hmm, I knew the Blood Demon wouldn't just try to trap us."

The management office late at night:

Everyone has been busy working overtime lately. At this time, apart from Xiaobaicai who is in the office, even Director Yu has gone out on fieldwork because the missing persons case has not been solved yet, so everyone is diligently running around outside.

Just as Xiaobaicai was about to doze off while looking at the information, she suddenly heard the alarm going off downstairs.

The downstairs alarm system is connected to the management office's security array. Anyone other than internal staff will be warned if they try to enter the management office. So when the alarm goes off, Xiaobaicai is immediately startled and all her sleepiness disappears.

"Who is it?!"

Little Cabbage didn't know who was trying to break into the management office. Because of her low cultivation level and timidity, she didn't dare to go downstairs to check immediately. Instead, she stood in a place with protective formations and shouted downstairs.

The people downstairs didn't seem to be coming up. After standing on the stairs for a while, Xiaobaicai heard a faint cry for help:

"Help me! Help me!"

After hearing the cries for help, Xiao Baicai didn't dare to go downstairs immediately. Before that, Yue Jiuling and the others had told Xiao Baicai that she had to be careful while working at the management office, as there were too many bad people outside and she had to be vigilant at all times. So Xiao Baicai didn't dare to go down immediately.
