Eroge: I can Travel To The Ancient World

Chapter 59: Tough Case



" The others would try their best to stop being the Nanhai City Magistrate. Because he is already a general and holds considerable military power." Cai Yixue sighed as she licked her lips, tasting the remaining sauce on her lips.

" Being the City Magistrate, Father would be able to hold the power of law enforcement in Nanhai City. It's something that would rival the City Lord's power."

" And as you know, the Suo Ming who current City Lord of Nanhai City, and the Suo Family are a bit hostile with the Cai Family. After all, A mountain can't have two tigers." Li Rou explained.

" Therefore, If the Husband becomes the City Magistrate, the Suo Family could only bark at us from the corner."'

" However, Getting approval from Imperial Family isn't easy." Cai Yunhai gave a bitter smile. " I am sure they are going to give me some difficult task."

" Father in Law, do you have any idea what it might be?" Jia Hao couldn't help but ask.

" I believe it might be the case of Moonlight Rapist." Cai Yixue spoke.

" Moonlight Rapist?" Jia Hao asked with a curious voice.

" It started in Western River City. A rich noble's house in Western River City was robbed, and their daughter was kidnapped. Three days later, her mutilated corpse was found beside the riverside."

" After that, three more similar things happened in the same city before the next case appeared a month later in Yuzhu County."

" And ten days ago, two such cases happened in our Nanhai City." Cai Yixue sighed. " No one ever seen his face. But it's speculated that he is a middle aged man with a scar on his left eye."

" The thing is, he got injured by the city guards of the Nanhai City which was led by the seventh captain. After that, his whereabouts have been unknown."

" He might have already left the city."

" So, You are saying that to become the City Magistrate, Father in Law has to capture this bastard?" Jia Hao looked at Cai Yunhai.

" Well? City Magistrate is the symbol of justice on behalf of the Emperor." Cai Yunhai shrugged.

" But the thing is, That bastard is too good at hiding. All families and factions of Nanhai City are trying to find him. But it was simply futile." Cai Yunhai grumbled.

" He already has a bounty of 30,000 Taels of gold on his head. However, He is very skilled at hiding. But I believe he is still in Nanhai City." Cai Yunhai rubbed his chin.

" Because his injuries aren't shallow. If he goes out with such injuries, he would get caught immediately."

" But, I guess he must have quite some skills if he still hasn't got caught even staying inside Nanhai City under everyone's nose." Jia Hao grinned.

" What do you think about his strength, Father in Law?"

" Not Innate realm yet. I even doubt if he reached the Peak stage of the Profound Awakening Realm. But his martial arts…It's a unique, stealth type technique."

" Anyway, I believe we have a much more important thing to do tomorrow." Jia Hao smiled. Cai Yixue realized it and she was surprised.

" Ah, Are you talking about Zhu Wuya?" Cai Yixue's eyes narrowed.

" Yeah, After catching him, we can investigate about this Moonlight Rapist." Jia Hao grinned.

" What happened with Zhu Wuya? You are going to make you rmove tomorrow?" Li Rou looked at Cai Yixue and Jia Hao.

" Don't worry, Mother in Law. We will catch him in an honest and upright manner. So no one could raise a voice of doubt." Jia Hao grinned.

" Well, Dinner is finished. I guess I should go back and rest." Jia Hao stood up.

" Where are you going?" Cai Yunhai looked at Jia Hao.

" …To rest?"

" Give me that bottle of rice wine." Cai Yunhai licked his lips greedily.

" Father in law…You shouldn't drink much…" Jia Hao forced a smile.

" What? Are you defying your father in law?"

" Dear…I also think you should not drink so much." Li Rou spoke.

" But that wine, I want more…"

" I said…No drinks tonight."

Cai Yunhai shut his mouth when he realized Li Rou's tone took an icy glint.

Cai Yixue got up as she looked at Jia Hao. " We are going back."

" Go ahead, Yixue. I hope both of you spend a pleasurable night."

" Mo-Mother! What are you talking about?" Cai Yixue flushed as she shouted, walking out hurriedly. Jia Hao didn't linger around and followed her swiftly.

Arriving in their room, Cai Yixue and Jia Hao became silent. " Well…Since it's late, We should sleep early."

" Yes… You…Sleep on the bed. I will sleep…somewhere else."

" No need for that." Jia Hao knew Cai Yixue would say something like that. Getting on the bed, Jia Hao put pillows in the middle of the bed.

" We can always share the bed, My Wife. No need to punish yourself like this."

" I… It's alright. I am comfortable on sofa." Cai Yixue insisted.

" Well, I won't force you, Wife. But I believe you should trust your husband a bit more." Jia Hao smiled as he got on one side and slept.

Cai Yixue thought for a while and sighed, joining Jia Hao on the bed.

Meanwhile, Jia Hao hadn't fallen asleep, but looking at the items he brought to Yunlan Continent this time,

[ Evil Repelling Charm: Made with imbuing spiritual qi, drawn with refined blood of a black dog with yellow peach paper. A Talisman that can naturally make evil things stay away from the bearer. Once ripped, it will create a burst of radiance which can make any evil exorcise]

' As I thought! This is possible! This is what you call a miracle!' Jia Hao became excited when he saw the description.

It was clearly a fake item when he bought it. However now, It turned into a genuine Evil Repelling Talisman.

' Pot of Miracle, It can turn fake into real. That means many unrealistic thing will appear in reality.'

' No, as It said…All depends on the law of causality and the world. I can bring a magical sword here, but not a missile I guess?'

' But anyway, This discovery is great. Let me see the state of other things.'

[ Pills of Truth: Treated with special herbs, this pill can make someone force to tell the truth. If the information is in the brain, the person won't be able to hide it. Effective for 30 minutes]

' So the charming pill turned into Pill of Truth, eh? I believe there are ten pills in a single bottle. Hehe, What a treasure!'

[ Green Eyed Jades: A very pure quality glass jade with a green eye in the center. Such jade a very good material to craft treasure or charms]

[ Damascus Dagger: High quality steel forced into damascus daggers. Very sharp, durable, and exquisite in design]

' All four knives I brought turned into Damascus daggers. How amusing.'

[ Mobile Phone: An ordinary mobile phone of Little Rice brand]

' Well, I thought it would have turned into a mobile phone where I can buy anything from another world. But I guess…It would change the genre of the story.'

' Ahem, I shouldn't be greedy. I already got quite a lot of things. Let's focus on Zhu Wuya and Moonlight Rapist's case in mind.'

Thinking about that, Jia Hao slowly fell asleep.

When the sun rose, Jia Hao's eyes fluttered as he felt suffocated.

' What's this soft and cushy thing pressing on my face?'
