Demon King – Chapter 469 – Best Candidate for Investigation

Holding his forehead in a small alley, Yuki, who had originally planned to leave, got down from the car again and hid to the side after seeing this baffling scene…

After all, this concerned whether his roommate would end up with an extra hat of the wrong color on his head. Yuki felt it was still necessary to pay attention to how things developed.

You see, a girl who already had some ambiguous involvement with a guy, not staying at school during class hours, but running outside to make contact with another guy… it was really hard not to think in certain unpleasant directions.

But then again, even if his starting point was good, as a grown guy, Yuki felt that tailing and stalking a girl, especially his roommate’s quasi-girlfriend, just didn’t look right no matter how you thought about it.

Fortunately, this problem was easy to solve, because Yuki happened to know someone who was perfect to send out in situations like this, and who definitely had nothing better to do right now…

“Wuhu~ I’m here~”

As a current of air swept by, with a light patter, a petite and adorable silver-haired girl gently landed beside Yuki.

“What’s up, what’s going on? Calling me over in such a hurry, that’s not like you at all?” With a playful smile on her face, the little Demon Lord reached out and patted at the dust that didn’t exist on her skirt.

“Long story short, I saw Gao Xuenan around here not long ago……”

After Yuki finished explaining, Eiru understood the situation. Jixian was her roommate and good friend after all, and this wasn’t anything difficult. She was quite willing to help.

“So where are the two of them now? Follow them and take a look, and make sure nothing unexpected happens, right?” Her Majesty the Demon Lord stretched lazily. If I’m tailing and protecting and observing, you should at least tell me where the people are, yeah?

“They went straight down that road. I wasn’t convenient to follow them… so I don’t know where they are now.”

Only able to give a rough direction, Yuki looked a little awkward.

“Alright, finding people isn’t anything hard anyway… but~”

Eiru suddenly changed her tone, revealing a scheming smile.

“This is technical work, so Stupid Yuki, the reward has to be paid in advance～”

Hearing that, the corners of Yuki’s mouth twitched twice. He knew exactly what kind of reward she wanted. Letting out a helpless sigh, he half-crouched down and opened his arms toward the girl in front of him.

“Hehe~ so warm~”

Her Majesty the Demon Lord naturally didn’t hold back, pouncing right in. She stood on tiptoe, pressing her cheek against his neck and rubbing against him nonstop, looking exactly like a spoiled little cat.

“Alright, alright, good girl…”

Ruffling her little head indulgently, Yuki sometimes couldn’t help but sigh to himself. This girl was really easy to satisfy.

“Boys are really great, hugging them is just warm and comfy~ hehe~”

Feeling and claiming the warmth from Yuki’s body, a hug like this, carrying body heat, brought the little girl enormous satisfaction both mentally and physically, to the point she simply couldn’t refuse it.

“It’s nice, sure, but don’t let other guys hug you and take advantage of you, alright?”

As much as he doted on her, Yuki still took the chance to remind the girl in his arms.

“How could that be, I’ll only hug you~ I’ve never hugged Stupid Qi like this either.”

Rubbing her cheek against his shoulder, the fully satisfied Demon Lord loosened her arms.

“Then I’m off to work. You go back to the dorm first, I’ll report back to you when I return~”

Flapping her wings and floating into the air, Her Majesty the Demon Lord waved her hand, preparing to fly out of the alley.

“Be careful, and don’t get discovered.”

“Don’t worry…”

Blue light lit up along the magic patterns on her wings. As she rose higher, the little Demon Lord’s figure gradually turned transparent, disappearing into the air…

——Demon Lord Recon in Progress——

“So, nothing happened at all?”

Looking at the girl who had returned in triumph, Yuki handed over the snacks he had prepared long ago and listened to her report.

According to Eiru, she followed Gao Xuenan and that unfamiliar guy the whole way, and there really wasn’t anything inappropriate between the two of them.

They just strolled around for a bit, bought some things, then went to eat together… from start to finish, the two kept a certain distance. Aside from the occasional moment when the guy was in a hurry and grabbed Gao Xuenan to pull her along, that was it.

“It just looks like ordinary friends, or maybe siblings or something like that?” Having watched the entire process, the little Demon Lord gave her own view. She didn’t think there was anything strange about their relationship, and Aunt Mu didn’t end up with an extra hat of the wrong color on her head either.

But Gao Xuenan had said she had an urgent matter to take care of, hadn’t she? And if it was really just this, was it worth specially taking leave and running over for it… Yuki still felt something was off. He felt Eiru must have missed some details.

“As ridiculous as it sounds, it really was just that… They wandered around for a bit, then that guy bought her a lipstick, treated her to a meal, chatted for a while, and then they each took their own ride and left.”

Her Majesty the Demon Lord spread her hands. She really didn’t see anything wrong between them.

After all, she and Yuki had exchanged gifts and treated each other to meals plenty of times even before confirming their relationship, not to mention before her girl identity was exposed… wasn’t that perfectly normal between friends?

“What did they talk about? Did you hear it?”

“No, eavesdropping isn’t appropriate, so I didn’t listen…”

Eiru shook her head, saying she was just a bodyguard with a monitoring role, not someone who would pry deeply into other people’s privacy.

Yuki held his chin and thought it over. He still reserved his own opinion. After all, with the same actions, differences in motive and relationship could change the nature of things.

Just like the interactions between Gao Xuenan and that guy today. Between friends or family, it was indeed very normal… but if you framed their behavior as a date, there would be no sense of discord at all.

“Alright, you’ve worked hard today…”

As he spoke, Yuki glanced at Jixian on the bed, who was still being all lovey-dovey on the phone with whoever was on the other end. For a moment, he wasn’t sure whether he should tell him about today’s events.

Hopefully they’re just ordinary friends… praying that way in his heart, Yuki still didn’t want his roommate’s love life to run into problems. For now, he planned to keep this matter hidden until things were more certain.

After all, people in love all have negative IQs. If he said it outright, the other party might not even believe him. And without a definite conclusion, bringing it up rashly would just make things awkward for everyone if it turned out to be a misunderstanding.

“Want me to keep investigating? I’m pretty free lately anyway…”

Propping her chin up with both hands, the little Demon Lord asked with an innocent expression.

Thinking that this matter was quite important, and that while this girl was busy with other things, he could also take the chance to investigate that bastard who had designs on her, Yuki thought for a moment before agreeing with his little girlfriend’s suggestion.
