Eroge: I can Travel To The Ancient World

Chapter 242: Suspicious Case

" I got a call from Teacher Qin. She said you left the class abruptly in the middle of a teacher's class?" Su Yunqi looked at Jia Hao with a stern glare.

" That teacher complained to Teacher Qin and she called me. Hao'er, why did you leave like that?"

" Uhh. Because Chu Yunli was in trouble." Jia Hao replied.

" What? Yunli was in trouble again?"

Su Xing'er was sitting on a nearby sofa as her ears perked up. " Damn it, She didn't call me at all."

" It's because she didn't want to trouble you." Jia Hao shook his head.

" What? How could she do that?" Su Xing'er couldn't help but snort. " Guess she isn't treating me as her friend anymore."

" It was a minor problem, Xing'er. You don't need to work up like this."

" But still, You need to take care of your studies." Su Yunqi sighed as she crossed her arms. Jia Hao pursed his lips as he nodded.

" I understand, Mother. I will take care of it." He looked around with a hum. " Where is Big Sister Lan?"

" Lan is in her room, preparing for her exam." Su Yunqi replied. But then, she clapped her palm as she looked at Jia Hao.

" Right, I still have not talked to you about that."

" About what?" Jia Hao was surprised.

" Hao'er, Where did you get those designs?" Su Yunqi couldn't suppress her excitement. " The blueprints and idea you gave to me, our Leisure of Chang'e would be more elevated."

" We are planning the product inauguration tomorrow. So, you have to come to the company party."

Jia Hao nodded when he heard that. " Of course, Mother. I will accompany you to the party."

' Hmm, The designs and craft in Yunlan Continent are pretty unique. Mixing them with modern design certainly created some good results.'

" Oi, Since when did you became a designer?"

Su Xing'er knocked Jia Hao's head gently from behind as she asked skeptically. Jia Hao turned around with a chuckle.

" Well, Don't you know? I am a jack of all trades." Jia Hao shrugged. Su Xing'er pinched his waist. " Can you stop being narcissist for five minutes?"

" Ouch!" Jia Hao winced as he jumped back. " What? Can't I be a designer? Mind you, my painting skill is good."

" Xing'er, You are too violent. At this rate, you aren't going to find a husband."

" Hmph, That's the last thing I am worried about." Smile blossomed on Su Xing'er's lips. " If that person doesn't agree…"

She made a scissoring gesture with her fingers, making Jia Hao shiver.

" Ugh, Whatever you want, lady." Jia Hao scowled as he turned around and walked to his room. Changing his clothes and getting freshened up, Jia Hao pulled out his laptop and opened it.

Entering the Shadow Hive, Jia Hao began to scroll through casually.

' Ugh, There is still a lot of time before I go back to the Yunlan Continent. Therefore, I should properly enjoy the things here.'

Entering the regional channel, Jia Hao found a post.

[ Look at this clown and laugh. The true identity of Dagger Under the Moon is revealed!]

Under the caption, there was a picture of a young man with a slightly crooked face. Jia Hao read the post as he realized what happened.

The users of Dark Hive are all anonymous. After all, most of them work on the gray area, directly opposite from the law.

The Dagger Under the Moon was such a small time hacker and information broker on the Dark Hive, However, recently he took some major tasks and got a small limelight.

However, today, his luck ended as he got embroiled in a murder case. The police found out about his identity and it got leaked. But not long after, an update post was posted.

[ Holy Shit! Look at this!]

Under that message was attached an image of a dead person. It was none other than the Dagger Under the Moon.

[ What? He got killed?]

[ Welp, Looks he kicked an iron board this time]

[ I think the killer reached him before the police]

[ Killer?]

Jia Hao's eyes squinted as he looked at the murder scene. ' Wait, A cut on the throat and two stabs on the chest… This couldn't be…'

Minimizing the tab, Jia Hao quickly messaged Black Butterfly.

[ Are you up?]

Not long after, he received a reply.

[ Well, Been a while since you messaged me. I thought you forgot about me]

Jia Hao pursed his lips when he noticed a haughty reply from Black Butterfly.

[ Did you see the forum? The murder of Dagger Under the Moon?]

[ Ah, That guy? I know about that. Why do you ask?]

[ I want to ask how much you know. Especially about the police involvement and the killer]

[ Hey, Aren't you a bit too interested in this?] Black Butterfly replied.

However, after a bit, she replied again.

[ As far I was able to gather, the police of Jincheng City weren't investigating him. It was only revealed his identity as a hacker after his dead body was discovered]

[ Guess then someone killed him out of a grudge?] Jia Hao replied.

[ Maybe? Because I saw all his history has been cleaned up. And the police also couldn't able to retrieve any data from his house. A rather thorough cleanup, you see?]

[ Something like a kill switch?] Jia Hao probed.

[ I told you what you wanted to know. It's my turn now] Black Butterfly hurriedly typed.

[ So, Do you know any other gossip? Come on, give me some juicy information]

[ Sorry, I am not someone who is interested in collecting BL stories]

Jia Hao's expression turned slightly soured as some unpleasant memories of his reincarnation as Kim Hyusung appeared in his mind.

' Ugh, The entertainment industry can be crazy sometimes.' Jia Hao sighed in his heart.

[ Then, Give me some other juicy stories. Come on, I am sure you have plenty of it. Like, Who are the girls who constantly post your picture in their stories?]

[ Are they really your sisters?]

Jia Hao pursed his lips when he saw the message.

[ What do you think?]

[...No way…NO FUCKING WAY! Are you really doing what I think you are doing?]

[ Think whatever you want] Jia Hao gave a shrugging emoji.

[ You nasty bastard! I like it, Just keep giving me details. I like some forbidden romance]

[ But I want you to do something] Jia Hao typed after thinking for a minute.

[ Keep an eye on the investigation of Jincheng Police. If anything happens, call me instantly]

[ Why? What do you want to know?] Black Butterfly replied curiously.

[ You will know soon] Jia Hao replied.

[ Anyway, You also need to do something for me. Recently, one of the old vip of Dark Hive posted a puzzle. Help me to crack it]

Jia Hao got the message and his eyes shone with delight. ' Ah, It's one of the mini puzzles in the Urban Fantasy. Although the outer layer firewall is tricky, it could be breached easily if followed the rule'

After thinking for a while, Jia Hao finally remembered the answer.

[ Here you go, No need to thanks me]

After sending the answer, Jia Hao went offline. After all, He always needs to have a mask of mystery on him, making Black Butterfly intrigued.

Hopping off from his bed, he took a step out of his room. But then, he was greeted with the sight of Su Lan coming out of her room.

" You look tired, Big Sister Su." Jia Hao looked at her with a grin.

" Shall I give you a massage?"
