【Tokyo Ghoul】Dark Emperor

The intersection of light and dark, the battle between black and white.

When the rapid development of technology successfully blocked the scythe of death, when the blood and tears of loved ones became

For the crazy endorsement, when the life of ordinary people gradually becomes a luxury,

When faced with the cost of growth, how should we choose…

I smile, if I am destined to leave, I am willing to

Love costs life.

Yeah, that’s me –

Tengchuan Xiali!

One
“Hey, let me ask you.”
“kindness?”
“If one day you lost your memory, which memories would you choose to keep?”
“Ah? How could you think of such an idiotic question?”
“I don’t care, you have to tell me.”
“Don’t act so expectant. I promise I’ll leave some memories of you.”
“Ai, really?”
“Of course it’s true. Otherwise, if you keep appearing in my dreams when I regain my memory, I will have nightmares.”
“Hey! Fujikawa Kari! What do you mean?!”
Literally!
ah
My head hurts.
She turned over in bed and ruffled her beautiful purple hair in anger.
Everything in his mind was blank, except for everything that happened with the girl. Even every detail was extremely clear, including the conversation in the dream just now.
The scorching sun of midsummer shines on the dense leaves, casting fine rays of sunlight on the girl’s beautiful face, even her eyelashes can be seen clearly.
Although he didn’t know who the girl was, Xia Li was still very depressed because he only had memories of her.
What disgusted him the most was that, just as he said, he still had memories of her, but he couldn’t remember who she was.
“Ahhh.” Xia Li rolled over on the bed in frustration.
The originally tidy bed suddenly became so messy that it was unbearable to look at. The soft bedding was suddenly in a mess and wrinkled like an old man’s face.
It took him a while to stop his childish actions, puffing up his cheeks and climbing off the bed angrily.
Xia Li ate his breakfast slowly, with a nonchalant look on his face, but his movements were extremely elegant, as if he were an 18th century British aristocrat. It was pleasing to the eye and he was totally different from a naughty kid in bed. Unfortunately, when he rolled around in bed in the morning, a wisp of hair on his head stuck up, which ruined his aristocratic aura. Like a round onion, the originally heroic aristocratic boy instantly turned into a cute naughty kid.
“Butler Fujikawa, you have been smiling since just now. Is there any problem?” Xia Li glanced at the old butler Fujikawa who was smiling like a flower, feeling a little puzzled.
The old butler laughed even harder.
“Hey…what’s so funny?” Xia Li narrowed her eyes dangerously.
“Ahem…” Having lived together day and night for so many years, how could the butler not understand that the young master was a little unhappy? He wiped the tears from laughing at the corners of his eyes and handed over a mirror.
“…” It seemed that one could clearly see the black line on Xia Li’s forehead.
“Good morning~”
“morning.”
Xia Li politely responded to the greetings from classmates who greeted her along the way, feeling helpless.
It’s so boring.
His drooping eyelids covered half of his purple pupils, and he looked around absentmindedly.
Qingmi High School.
The black fountain pen was spinning deftly between the fingers, leaving a black afterimage that was dazzling. Several classmates around him couldn’t help but keep their gazes on the rapidly spinning fountain pen, their eyes full of amazement. They had no intention of listening to the class at all. Several girls even started to secretly pick up their phones and start taking pictures.
Supporting his chin in boredom, Xia Li’s distracted gaze rested on his slender fingers.
These hands are white and slender, and you can’t tell they are a man’s hands at all. But he is a young master after all, and he has never done any housework. It is normal for his hands to have no calluses at all.
But I always feel like something is not right.
What is going on?
His delicate brows furrowed slightly, and he tried hard to recall but found no clues at all.
As I thought about it, my temples began to ache again.
Can’t think about it anymore.
With a sigh, he stood up suddenly.
Then he realized that everyone in the classroom was looking up at him in surprise.
Huh? What happened?
Seeing Xia Li’s confused look, the teacher on the podium had veins throbbing on his forehead. He could no longer endure it and yelled, “Fujikawa Xia Li! Stop it!”
“Hmm…” Xia Li thought about it seriously and said, “Teacher, please continue.” After saying that, she sat down without changing her expression.
The whole class was stunned for three seconds, and then burst into laughter.
Leaning against the wall outside the classroom, basking in the sun, his lazy posture looked like a lazy cat taking a nap.
So to speak.
Still got punished…
A look of helplessness flashed across his handsome face.
“Haha…Xia Li, you are being punished to stand again?” A discordant female voice suddenly sounded.
“Huh?” Xia Li opened his eyes and glanced at the short-haired girl who was standing in front of him, holding a stack of homework leisurely and smiling happily.
“Well. Doing your homework again?” This simple sentence seemed to hit the girl’s sore spot, and Dong Xiang instantly got angry.
“I’m going to kill you! How dare you mock me?”
“I’m telling the truth!” Throwing aside his gentlemanly manners, Xia Li refused to be outdone.
“Fujikawa Kari! Kirishima Touka! The two of you, stop it!” The teacher’s furious voice came from behind.
“Hmph!” Dong Xiang made a face at Xia Li and turned her head away with an unhappy look.
“Tsk.” Xia Li turned away with disdain.
The teacher behind them couldn’t help but feel a headache again.
Problem students, problem students…
The teacher had never been so desperate.
What are the consequences of offending the teacher in class?
Of course, it was the brainwashing talk in the office after class.
“Hey.” Dong Xiang poked Xia Li’s waist with her elbow.
“What?” Xia Li, acting like a good boy, glanced at Dong Xiang out of the corner of her eye.
“Please help me get some homework books.” Dong Xiang looked proud.
“No.” Xia Li refused with a righteous look on her face.
“Are you sure?” Dong Xiang narrowed her eyes dangerously.
“Sure!” Xia Li swallowed hard.
“Boom!” A muffled sound.
The result was that Xia Li had a Band-Aid on her forehead and was listening to the teacher’s lecture while holding a pile of homework books.
Dong Xiang next door looked expressionless, but she was smiling in her heart like a cat that had stolen some fish.
Never again…
Women are terrible…
Xia Li was filled with depression.

“Dr. Garner…everything is ready.”
“Well… try it again.”
“yes.”
A dark red, round, granular object was stuffed into the cut back of a young boy.
“This time it’s the A-rank ghoul’s Kakuhaku, so there shouldn’t be any problem…”
A look of pain quickly emerged on the boy’s face, and then he struggled frantically, with sweat constantly streaming down his face.
The heart rate continued to accelerate and soon exceeded the normal value.
“Quickly take out the Hercules! This is the most suitable individual for the experiment recently found, we can’t let him die!” Kano yelled frantically, but before he could take out the Hercules, the boy’s heart rate reached its highest…
Then it stopped.
“Bang! ” He smashed the RC liquid in his hand to the ground, and broken glass fell all over the floor.
Failed again.

?Tokyo Ghoul?Dark Emperor: 2 pictures and texts
“Hmph^Hmph…”
In the dark alley, the muffled sound of flesh being torn, the sounds of chewing and swallowing, and unknown strange noises mixed together. The scarlet color mixed with the broken fragments of internal organs scattered all over the ground. The strong smell of blood mixed with the unique smell of prosperity and bustle of the city, mixed together, bloodthirsty and tragic.
“Gudong…”
After swallowing the last bite of “delicious food”, the ghoul wearing a strange silver half-mask raised his head contentedly, the corners of his lips, still with a few traces of blood, raised in joy.
It’s been a while since I’ve had such a feast… This human tastes really sweet…
He licked the blood remaining at the corner of his mouth with some aftertaste, and his dark red eyes moved back slightly.
“Isn’t it time for you to come out? After watching the show for such a long time, isn’t it time for you to come out and introduce yourself?”
The silver-white mask emitted a cold white light, illuminating the winding blood lines on the ground, making it look like hell on earth.
The screams of dying humans still seemed to echo in his ears, but they could not move this cold-blooded ghoul in the slightest.
Ghouls, humans.
“Perfect…!” A strangely pronounced English voice suddenly rang out from the shadows on the side. “The sweet human scent… and the unique mellow aroma emitted by ghouls after eating… It’s like the best…” A slender figure walked out of the shadows, and the dark and magnetic voice suddenly rose in pitch, “Sodolce!” With arms spread out, he screamed enthusiastically. The unique voice completely ruined the silver-faced ghoul’s good mood due to the full meal, and goose bumps appeared all over his body.
“Hey… who are you, pervert…” The silver-faced ghoul frowned in disgust under his mask, “What are you doing standing by here?”
“Excuse me…” Yueshan Xi crossed his arms habitually, a playful smile appeared on his face, and he licked his lips. “Hello… my delicious main course for today.”
Ghoul? The silver-faced ghoul suddenly felt a sense of alarm in his heart. Ghouls who often ghouled together… must be very powerful, right? “What are you talking about, you disgusting guy?”
“…” Ignoring the food’s question, Yueshan took a deep breath, seemingly intoxicated by this hellish scene. “As a delicacy… you must be careful… don’t taint the delicious food with rude words and actions.”
You bastard The prey s struggle before death made Yueshan s smile deepen.
“Tear!” A bright red blood clot quickly formed on the waist, and three scales several meters long suddenly drilled out. The third one stabbed the wall fiercely, splashing countless smoke and dust, and swept towards Yue Shanxi, leaving a long gully.
“Hmm?” Yueshan Xi’s eyes were suddenly filled with black and red colors, and the purple sword-shaped armor was spinning and wrapping around his arm, and there was a violent collision between the sharp front end of the armor and the bright red scales.
“Swoosh~” He flashed to Yueshan’s side extremely quickly, leaving behind a trail of afterimages, and the other two scales pierced Yueshan’s chest and lower abdomen respectively.
With a gleam of light in his eyes, Tsukiyama only slightly turned sideways to avoid the heavy attack of the silver-faced ghoul. He leaned forward nimbly and leaped with an agile movement that was completely contrary to the Kagaku ghoul, and his sharp Kagaku slashed upwards.
“Ouch!” A muffled groan of pain was immediately heard.
Half of the dark red scales were cut off and fell to the ground.
The scales that had collided with Yueshan Xijiahe before also had cracks on them, and seemed to be severely damaged.
He slightly turned sideways to avoid another heavy blow from Yueshan, then raised his leg fiercely and swept it forward, barely forcing Yueshan Xi to retreat.
“Huh!” The silver-masked ghoul took a deep breath, his body trembling slightly in pain, and fear flashed quickly across the face under the mask.
This guy s strength is probably beyond that of an average S-level person, right?
How is that possible?
The silver-faced ghoul swung the last intact scale on his body and stabbed it hard into the wall behind him. He pushed hard with his feet and the huge traction brought him to the top of the wall.
Want to run?
Tsukiyama cried out in his heart, and rushed forward at full speed, then thrust his sharp armor forward fiercely.
Sizzle! Aaaaaah Puchi!
The silver-masked ghoul seemed to have made up his mind to block the cracked Scaled Hekkar with his back, but unfortunately the hardness of the Scaled Hekkar was not enough to block the Kakkar. After being pierced, the Kakkar penetrated deeply into the silver-masked ghoul’s back without any hindrance, bringing up a puff of dark red blood.
He quickly spat out a mouthful of blood, and then fled madly relying only on his instinctive desire to survive.
As lost as a dog which has lost its home, as anxious as a fish which has escaped the net.
Oops, he got away…
Tsukiyama’s kagune is a small kagune, and he is not good at speed. He could only sigh in frustration, “Ah. Today’s main course is gone…whatapitiy.” Tsukiyama Xi’s body was twisted strangely, and the expression on his face was also extremely weird.
After going crazy for a while, he finally calmed down, staring at the blood on the tip of the armor, shook his head regretfully, and his sight stayed in the deep darkness in the distance for a long time… a long time…
On the other side, the silver-masked ghoul was running and stumbling, leaving bloodstains on the ground. He was very worried that Tsukiyama Shuu would catch up with him following the bloodstain he left behind, so he didn’t dare to stop at all. If it weren’t for Rin He’s strong recovery ability and his inner will to survive supporting him, he would have fallen down long ago.
His vision was becoming increasingly blurred. The silver-faced ghoul knew that he was about to reach his limit, but he was still unwilling to give up. He was unwilling to accept his weakness, unwilling to give up his life to a fate that would last forever. He was unwilling to…
At this moment, he really wanted to roar to the sky and vent the resentment and pain in his heart, but unfortunately he no longer had any strength to do so.
The world in front of my eyes suddenly turned upside down, and my heavy eyelids finally slowly closed. The last memory before I passed out was the three big words on the door.
“Fujikawa House”
Turn on lazy reading mode
Three (old version)
“Buzz–” The cars on the elevated road drove past quickly, and soon the overpass returned to calm in the early morning.
A petite figure was sitting on the railing outside the window of a high-rise building, seemingly gazing at the overpass in the distance. Two slender legs wrapped in bandages were dangling outside the railing, and a clear and pleasant female voice was heard from under the bandaged face.
“Almost.”
“I’m still alive?” Shoji Takenaka suddenly woke up from his sleep and broke out in a cold sweat.
etc?
He encountered a perverted Konnife who was of S-level strength and was severely injured. He had to flee all the way. Fortunately, the opponent was a Kaku who was not good at speed, so he was able to escape by chance. In the end, he was exhausted and fainted in front of a family’s door.
Fortunately, I am still alive, which means I was not caught, right?
Well… not necessarily!
Maybe that pervert will capture me, fatten me up, and eat me later…
Souji Takenaka was so scared by his own thoughts that he almost rolled off the bed.
Mask…mask…mask?
After all this trouble, he suddenly realized that the mask on his face was gone.
I’m not dead yet, and my wounds seem to be bandaged, which means this family saved me, right? Then it’s okay that my mask has been taken off… But if a ghoul’s face is seen by humans, I’m afraid my true identity will be exposed, and I will never be able to integrate into human society. After all, CCG is not just for show.
If the one who saved him was really a human… he might really want to repay kindness with enmity and kill this family to ensure that his identity is not exposed… otherwise, those CCG investigators are not something that a ghoul with one foot in the S-rank can handle…
No, no!
Souji Takenaka slapped himself hard on the forehead.
If the other party really wanted to harm him, he might not wake up in this person’s house with his wounds bandaged. Maybe he would find himself in CCG’s laboratory when he woke up?
After successfully scaring himself to the point of giving himself goosebumps once again, Takenaka Shoji finally figured it out.
Why do you care so much?
You’ll know once you meet the owner of this house…
Comforting himself in this way, Takenaka Shoji finally calmed down.
But his calmness lasted only a few seconds.
Because the next moment, the ghoul’s keen hearing allowed him to hear footsteps approaching him.
His heart suddenly skipped a beat. The sound of light footsteps fell like drumbeats, strangely overlapping with his uneasy heartbeat. He suddenly became nervous.
The one who saved himself…
What will it look like?
The footsteps stopped at the door of the room, as if hesitating.
Shoji Takenaka in the room also held his breath, staring at the wooden door.
As if he had finally made up his mind, the doorknob turned slowly, and then the door opened gently, and the purple-haired boy walked in tiptoeing like a thief.
The cautious eyes and the wide expectant eyes collided suddenly, as if sparks were created.
Xia Li felt as if she had been caught doing something bad. She felt inexplicably guilty and even her back felt a little stiff.
But Takenaka Shoji didn’t expect such a handsome boy to come in, and even his breathing paused.
Fortunately, he was still wondering if it was some scary-looking uncle… or even Tsukiyama Shuu who wanted to treat him as food that day, but he never expected that such a person would come in.
So unexpected.
The atmosphere froze in an odd way, with everyone staring at each other.
a long time
Xia Li finally realized that “this is my home, why should I be so nervous?” and extended her hand to the lying Takenaka Shoji in a friendly manner.
“Um…!” Takenaka Shoji finally reacted, “Excuse me!”
“I’m Xia Li, Fujikawa Xia Li, nice to meet you “
“Fujikawa Kari? Is she the electronic music prince? From Kiyomi High School?” Takenaka Shoji’s eyes suddenly widened.
“Ai?” Xia Li was also confused. “Yeah!” He was indeed from Qingmi High School…
“Wow wow wow–” Takenaka Shoji started to scream. “I really admire your guitar music! That one…”
Guitar music?
The little prince of electronic music!
Guitar!!??
Takenaka Shoji’s words were like a stone thrown into a calm pond, causing ripples in his heart, which then gradually expanded and finally caused a huge wave.
I…can play the guitar, and I’m pretty famous.
Before the amnesia.
But why are my hands so white and tender, without any calluses?
No wonder I feel a strong sense of disobedience when looking at my own palms…
This body…what’s going on?
Xia Li’s mind was in a mess, and he didn’t listen to a word of what Takenaka Shoji said next…
impossible?
My body someone has tampered with it…
Thinking of this, his heart began to numb and a huge sense of uneasiness came over him. Even the panic of losing his memory and having everything be blank could not be suppressed and surged into his heart.
He shook his head frantically, pressing his hands on his temples. Sweat kept dripping from his forehead, across his eyebrows, across the corners of his eyes, and down the curve of his face.
“Hey!…What’s wrong with you?” Seeing Xia Li’s pale face, Takenaka Shoji hurriedly rolled off the bed and pressed his body against the wall, letting Xia Li’s forehead hit the wall and continuously fall on his chest and lower abdomen.
Are you kidding? He is just an ordinary human. If he hits it twice, he will be finished. He obviously used all his strength. Even though the ghoul’s body is very tough, it still hurts. He can’t help but smack his lips. How much strength does it take? Does he want to kill himself?
He frowned and raised his hand hesitantly, but looking at Xia Li’s painful face, his eyes became firm and his knife fell on the back of her neck mercilessly.
The trembling body suddenly stiffened, then fell down softly, his lips moved slightly a few times, and he uttered the word “spring”.
Four (old version)
“boom–“
The fragments of steel bars and concrete were shattered by external force, scattered everywhere, and raised a cloud of dust.
Two nimble figures shuttled through the smoke and dust. The gray figure dodged the black figure’s attacks with ease. He seemed calm and unhurried. The Quinque in his hand was named “Yukimura” and it flashed with an threatening chill.
The sky-blue tail swung gently, then suddenly leaned forward, and the attack like a storm quickly landed in front of the gray figure.
boom!!!!
In the second confrontation between Quinque and Kagome, Quinque once again successfully blocked Kagome’s attack.
“You’ve almost reached your limit…” Arima Kisho’s eyes flashed with a cold white light, “It just so happens that I am a little dissatisfied with Yukimura’s attack ability… SS-level, Purple Dew Grass.”
The long tail once again passed through the upright Quinque, and the terrifying power made Arima Takashi’s hands tremble slightly.
“Purple Dew Grass” stopped attacking. It seemed that the previous attack was his limit and he no longer had the strength to continue fighting.
“You’re still unwilling to use another kind of kagune until you die…” Arima Takamasa said coldly, his white hair swaying slightly in the air, and there was no expression on his handsome face.
“It doesn’t matter. Killing you and taking out the Hebao will do the same thing!”
With a graceful flash of his figure, he appeared behind Purple Dew Grass, and the “Yukimura” in his hand fell suddenly.

“Ah!” He roared silently and stood up from the bed.
Nightmare?
still
Xia Li’s slightly shaking pupils still revealed his fear.
Stretching out her hand and looking at her palm, Xia Li’s eyes were filled with anxiety and confusion.
What is this?
“Master, are you awake?” The familiar voice of the butler sounded in his ears, and Xia Li realized that he was so focused on his thoughts that he didn’t even notice the butler beside him.
“Ah…Butler Fujikawa…” A gleam of wisdom flashed in Xia Li’s eyes. “Have you ever heard of…the name of Tradescantia?” As she spoke, she carefully watched every subtle change in the old butler Fujikawa’s expression with her peripheral vision.
But he was disappointed. The butler’s face was as calm as a pool of stagnant water, without revealing the slightest expression.
“Why, Master, have you remembered anything?”
Am I really overthinking it?
Xia Li frowned and thought about it.
wrong!
His expression was so calm, so calm that there was not a single ripple, as if he knew I would ask this…
There is a problem!
Butler Fujikawa has been in the Fujikawa family for decades. There is no need to doubt that the butler would never do anything detrimental to the Fujikawa family…but does he really think that the butler would not be unaware of what he knows?
In that case, maybe he decided that not telling me would be better for me now… so when the time comes… he will definitely tell me, right?
After figuring this out, Xia Li finally calmed down, but there was still some anxiety in her eyes.
“Oh, by the way,” Xia Li looked up suddenly, as if she suddenly remembered something, “Where is the person we saved last time?”
Souji Takenaka was very upset.
It’s not just because the person who saved him appeared last time and fell into a coma and never appeared again, but also because the last time the butler found the unconscious boy in his arms, the horrible murderous intent in his eyes still made him feel a little scared when he recalled it now.
Are you kidding?
He is an A+ grade ghoul. As a predator, would he be afraid of an old prey?
So…what exactly happened?
He tapped his forehead in distress.
What’s even more strange is… where is this???
After waking up, I found myself in this strange place… locked in a small cell.
There were walls all around him, with only a small skylight providing a faint ray of light, allowing him to see the surrounding scenery clearly.
What are you doing?
Isn’t this just a smaller version of a cage?
Such a cage was ridiculous to him. With such a strong cage, how could he lock up an A+ grade ghoul?
Unfortunately, he was really imprisoned at this time.
Maybe it was injected with RC inhibitor fluid…
Takenaka Shoji, who had no strength left in his body, thought so.
Who locked me up here?
The old butler’s murderous eyes flashed before his eyes.
Don t you?
That guy’s breath really smells like that of an ordinary human…
How could an ordinary human being lock himself up? I’m afraid he can’t even insert the syringe of RC inhibitor into his body?
What is it?
Takenaka Shoji hated thinking about these things the most…he felt like his head was starting to hurt.
Ah, so.
I hate things like this that are hard to figure out! Even a single-celled organism like Takenaka Shoji can clearly smell the scent of conspiracy, isn’t it too weird?
besides.
When will you let me out?
So boring!!!!
Takenaka Shoji, who was at the bottom of the cell, complained almost at the same time as Xia Li in the classroom, but one was yelling directly in the cell, while the other could only shout in his heart.
“Fujikawa Kari, please answer this question!”
“…” Xia Li stood up calmly.
The teacher frowned and looked at Xia Li, who was standing there with a tall figure, with a face full of question marks.
Xia Li took a deep breath, which lasted for three full seconds.
Then he kept organizing sentences and swept them out like a machine gun, containing a large number of professional terms and nouns, which stunned the teacher who was unable to react for a moment.
” These are three of the solutions. The other two are beyond the scope of high school textbook knowledge. That’s it.”
quiet.
Everyone stared at the breathless Xia Li in amazement.
Three things to do when reading: read, collect, and reward!
Five (Old Version)
“A sudden enlightenment?”
So amazing
“Why did this guy suddenly become Superman?”

He propped his chin up in boredom.
It’s so boring…
There was only annoyance in his eyes. These humans were so noisy…just like flies.

These
Humans…
Human?
Shocked by the thoughts that popped up in her mind subconsciously, Xia Li felt a tingling sensation on her spine.
Why do I subconsciously have such thoughts?
(Li Jun today is… so weird? It seems like he’s not just absent-minded, but also… scared? Uneasy? Confused? What’s going on?) There was a pair of eyes behind Xia Li, staring at him silently, with a heart full of questions.
What happened? Xia Li…
His worried gaze remained on Xia Li’s back. As her back was facing away from him, he could not see her face clearly. He could only see a cold expression on half of her handsome face which looked a little stiff.
In fact, Hasegawa Masa is not the only one who is madly infatuated with Xia Li. In this school, the girls who are infatuated with him can probably line up from the teaching building to the school gate.
Of course, for Hasegawa, some girls are obsessed with his appearance, some are attracted by his aristocratic family background, and some like his temperament.
But she herself didn’t understand why she liked him.
Perhaps from childhood to adulthood, as a young lady whose parents had both passed away, no one had ever been able to truly enter her heart. Her personality was not the kind of person who could communicate and get along with others openly. She successfully escaped the control of her family with her pretty appearance – it’s not that pretty looks are bad, but for the family, her appearance was far from enough to be a diplomatic pawn and bargaining chip. And because her parents had both passed away, there was no inheritance problem, so she was neglected.
Although she was ignored, she was not moved at all, as if it had nothing to do with her at all.
In fact, it really didn’t matter. In her eyes, the so-called power and money were like a plate of yellow sand, all fleeting and ridiculous. Therefore, when she was thrown out of the Hasegawa family by her cousin, her expression did not change at all from beginning to end. This surprised those who hated her parents and had originally planned to watch the show.
But that s where it ends.
This is the whole story of Hasegawa Masaharu.
But then came the turning point in her life.
It was just an ordinary yet extraordinary day. There was a hazy drizzle in the sky. Although it was almost autumn, it was still a bit hot.
That day was the first day that Hasegawa Masa reported to Kiyomi High School. The ends of his hair were slightly wet by the rain and were slightly curled.
He frowned in dissatisfaction, shook his head, put the back of his hand on his forehead, and habitually looked straight ahead –
One glance and you can’t look away.
The short purple hair and the brows showing maturity after a night of rebellion formed a huge contrast with the deep purple eyes, but they seemed to have a magnetic force that made people unable to look away.
The handsome face is reflected in the brown eyes, silent and quiet.
At that moment, my heart was pounding.
I am so lucky to be in the same class with him.
Hasegawa Masaru was a little excited as he didn’t expect that he would be in the same class with this big boy who gave him a very good first impression.
The next time she saw him was at the freshman talent show. The wild, rebellious and charming boy holding a guitar on the stage was actually the big boy who had sat in front of her and looked elegant and noble. She was stunned.
Yet there was surprisingly no sense of incongruity, as if it was supposed to be this way.
Later, they gradually became familiar with each other. No, to be more precise, she gradually became familiar with him and began to understand his personality, his preferences, and everything about him…
The closer I get to him, the more I understand how unfathomable this boy is.
The fusion of the two contradictory temperaments of nobility and gentleness was nothing. She once felt the terrifying dark aura and negative emotions beneath the noble appearance.
This is why there is always a sense of incongruity in that noble appearance.
The days passed one by one.
My enthusiasm for him did not fade away, but instead grew wildly in my heart like grass sprouts after a spring rain.
Soon they were sophomores in high school.
He disappeared.
Fujikawa Kari, the “electronic music prince” known to everyone in Kiyomi High School, has disappeared.
It can t be considered missing… The old butler of the Fujikawa family came to ask for a long vacation for him, so long that it was unbelievable.
“Two years???” Hasegawa could still imagine the homeroom teacher’s angry and glaring look, and the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but rise slightly.
During that time, she almost went crazy as if she had lost her backbone.
Fortunately, he didn’t really stay away from school for two years. He just returned to school after not showing up for more than half a year.
But it brought bad news.
He has lost his memory.
When these four words came out of the old butler’s mouth, everyone’s expressions were stunned.
“So, please make sure to keep his past secret!” The old butler’s expression was more serious than ever.
Why not help him recover his memory?
Everyone was puzzled, but Butler Fujikawa’s subsequent words cleared up their doubts.
“The memories of his amnesia are painful… don’t let him remember them.”
It seemed that no one noticed anything unusual, but Hasegawa Masaharu always felt that something was wrong.
However, after Xia Li came back, the extremely dark and corrupt aura hidden in her body disappeared, which made Hasegawa slightly believe what the butler said.
But something seems to be wrong today.
The same aura as before faintly appeared on him again, although it was very faint, Hasegawa still felt it.
After the school bell rang, she felt uneasy watching him go away and finally decided to follow him.
straight
Turn left…
Turn right…
Eventually she found him walking into an alley…
“You can come out soon…” Xia Li’s faint voice sounded, and she followed me all the way.
Discovered?
Hasegawa’s heart tightened, and a breeze blew through his brown hair.
Just as I was about to walk out resigned to my fate, a loud and arrogant laugh suddenly sounded from not far away.
“I didn’t expect your perception is still so sensitive… Bai.” A black figure suddenly jumped up and then landed behind Xia Li. The familiar voice gave Hasegawa goosebumps all over his body.
This guy’s voice… is actually 70% similar to Xia Li’s!
Xia Li frowned.
In fact, he really only discovered Hasegawa, but he didn’t expect to call out another person like a blind cat catching a dead mouse.
The man was wearing a black mask, as if a complete mask had been cut in half, revealing only half of his face…
The weird thing is…
The half of the face that was revealed was exactly the same as Xia Li.
Six (old version)
Hasegawa Masayuki was so frightened that his body was shaking. He hid stiffly in that secluded corner, not daring to make any sound.
“This guy… is definitely not human!”
Xia Li looked alert as she looked at the person in front of her, half of whose face was exposed and who looked exactly like her.
Although the speed was very fast, he still saw that the guy jumped over the wall of the alley and landed behind him.
Although he had no murderous intent, his hair still stood on end. His instinct told him that this guy… was very dangerous!
“Who are you?”
Without answering Xia Li’s question, the man in the black mask slightly opened his lips, uttered a word, then turned and left.
Xia Li’s pupils suddenly dilated.
Looking at the man’s departing back, Xia Li followed without hesitation –
Before leaving, he glanced around, paused slightly at the corner where Hasegawa Masa was hiding, and then quickly followed the man’s steps and left.
Bang
Fall to the ground.
Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Shoji Takenaka looked at the man in front of him with serious eyes.
I didn’t expect to encounter something like this right after escaping…
Souji Takenaka himself didn’t know how long he had been powerless under the RC suppressant, but he knew that as soon as he escaped, he smelled a familiar breath… and the smell of blood.
For ghouls, nothing is more sensitive than the smell of blood. To some extent, they can even be compared to sharks, which shows how sensitive their sense of smell is.
With the thought, “If I don’t share the food, how can I justify the days of hunger I suffered while being imprisoned?”, Takenaka Shoji rushed in the direction where the smell of blood came from, but he saw a scene that made him furious.
A familiar figure was lying on the ground.
The shocking bloodstains on the purple hair made his whole body burn with anger.
Hello
This guy…
How come you’ve become like this after not seeing each other for a few days…
It really is…
Those who hurt him…cannot be forgiven…
The scarlet eyes suddenly opened wide, and the blood-red kagune attacked the man below who was wearing a black mask and whose hands were stained with blood.
“Oh? The little bug is coming out…” The man wearing a black mask raised the corners of his lips slightly, and his sky-blue tail burst out from his back, effortlessly throwing away the fiercely attacking Takenaka Shoji.
“Trash is trash.” He spat with disdain, and his face, which was exactly the same as Xia Li’s, was full of disdain, just like a vulgar person.
Takenaka Shoji, who was originally surprised by the familiar face, confirmed it after seeing this expression.
This guy is definitely not Xia Li!
There is absolutely no way Xia Li would make such an expression!
He actually did such a thing with a face exactly like Xia Li…
Unforgivable… Unforgivable…
you
There was a madness flashing in his eyes, and the blood scales on his tail vertebrae were beating wildly. Finally, with a heart-pounding sound, the fourth blood scale broke out of his body and rushed towards Hei with an unstoppable momentum.
times…
There was a sound of something breaking, and time seemed to stand still.
“I didn’t expect that you, a bug, would actually break through to S-level at the last moment… It’s really unexpected…”
Knocked down once again, Takenaka Shoji looked helplessly at the monster in front of him.
Beating up S-rank easily?
This guy is so powerful and terrifying…
but
He crawled up with difficulty and stubbornly stood in front of Xia Li who was lying on the ground.
I…will protect him.
Even if it costs my own life.
He saved my life… What’s more…
He turned around and glanced at Xia Li who was lying on the ground, with a mixture of inexplicable emotions in his eyes.
Do you want me to get out of the way?
Unless I die.
Do you know.
“Ah ” Roaring silently, he rushed towards the terrible man in front of him again.
Like a moth to a flame, regardless of the consequences.
I just want to light a fire for the person behind me to illuminate him.
The blow was delivered with the determination to die bravely, and was the most powerful in life. Unfortunately, it was still vulnerable in front of the black. He raised his hand lightly, and everything disappeared into thin air.
Damn it.
Such an understatement.
It was burning out, like a falling butterfly, its wings wet by the rain, waving its remaining wings but ultimately falling into powerlessness.
Dead end.
Close your eyes and wait for death.
“Hei… don’t go too far…” An old and hoarse voice suddenly sounded, and it actually sounded familiar to Takenaka Shoji.
“Tsk, the troublesome old guy is here.” Hei’s expression suddenly became serious. Although he was still talking nonsense, the cautiousness in his eyes made Takenaka Shoji feel a little different.
This guy is so powerful, but still afraid of this old guy?
Maybe this old guy is even more terrifying?
But the old man’s voice made Takenaka Shoji a little concerned. Where had he heard this familiar voice before?
A figure slowly walked out of the shadows on one side. He was not wearing a mask, and his bony kagune covered the upper half of his face. However, the wrinkles on his chin clearly told him that this powerful kagune was no longer young.
The He one?
Another monster appeared…
Takenaka Shoji couldn’t help but smile bitterly. The pervert who was in the Kobo (Tsukiyama Shuu) was no longer an opponent he could match. The terrifying aura at that time seemed to still be around him, but now it was nothing in comparison.
I think everyone here can crush me to death without any effort, right?
When did ghouls that could easily defeat S-rank ghouls become so common?
If CCG knew about this, they would cry to death, right?
My mind was full of confusing thoughts, and I didn’t even know when I fell unconscious.
It doesn t matter, right?
Anyway, for them, killing themselves is just a matter of moving their fingers.
There’s no point in struggling anymore, right?
Seven (old version)
“My name is Kaneki Ken.”
“Just an ordinary college student at Kamijui University.”
“That big blond boy over there is my good friend and best friend, Nagachika Hideyoshi.”
“But, in those few days, my daily routine…my world…completely collapsed.”
Kamishiro Rize.
The long purple-red hair, the beautiful smile on the elegant and peaceful face, and the strong bookish air all attracted Kaneki to approach the dark abyss.
“Miss Rise……” A few syllables rolled around on the tip of the tongue over and over again, accompanied by the mellow aroma of coffee, like the alluring fragrance of poppy, but when you savor it carefully, it only leaves a mouthful of bitterness.
The moment the mask was torn off, Kaneki couldn’t believe his eyes.
That quiet and elegant Miss Rize, who was as gentle and beautiful as the elder sister next door…
It turns out that he is a ghoul who chooses people to eat.
Therefore, when he woke up from the hospital bed, his nose was filled with the pungent smell of medical alcohol, and before he regained consciousness, the first emotion he felt was surprise from the bottom of his heart.
Although he himself didn’t understand where it came from.
His eyes opened confusedly. His right eye had the clarity that belonged to a human. Even with the confusion, the grey pupil was like the finest crystal, translucent and crystal clear. His left eye was a brutal and weird black and red abyss. The scarlet colour and the hideous bloodshot at the corner of his eye proved his identity.
The ghoul’s red eyes.
“Everything is terrible, so doesn’t that mean that everything has been terrible for me since I was born?” Dong Xiang’s angry voice was still echoing in her ears, and she didn’t know whether it was mixed with sadness or pain.
“I really went too far.” He lowered his head with some self-blame.
“Kaneki, are you okay?” A gentle voice came from behind.
“Takenaka-senpai?” Kaneki told the whole story to the man next to him who looked like an older brother next door with some uneasiness.
“Touka…?” Takenaka Shoji was a little stunned, “Him… Although he looks a little fierce on the outside, he is actually just a little girl with a weird heart and a double-talking mind…”
“You say one thing and mean another… little girl…” Kaneki was speechless. His bright grey eyes looked in surprise at the man in front of him who seemed to be lost in thought. “Ever since he left…”
“he?”
There was a hint of curiosity in Kaneki’s eyes that were not covered by the eyepatch.
“who is he?
“Dong Xiang.” A familiar voice suddenly sounded in my ears.
“Xia Li, where have you been all this time?” How could you disappear for a year without saying a word? Dong Xiang grabbed the collar of the person in front of her angrily, “You don’t know…” Don’t you know… I… am very worried about you…
I’m afraid you’ll just disappear…
As if he was very aware of Dong Xiang’s character, his eyebrows were curved and he smiled happily.
It feels like spring flowers blooming all around.
“What’s so funny?” Dong Xiang was furious and cursed angrily, but her heartbeat quietly accelerated.
Waking up from her sleep, Dongxiang put her hand on her cheek in confusion.
Why… do I have such a dream?
Why…dream about this guy?
With elegant and calm steps, with his head held high, he opened the antique door. His purple hair swayed slightly and there was a distorted, weird smile on his handsome face.
“Welcome…” Takenaka Shoji’s voice was halfway through when it stopped abruptly as if someone had strangled him.
“Ping pong…”
The exquisite coffee cup on the tray in his hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound, leaving porcelain slag all over the floor.
“Yue… Shan… Xi!”
His eyes narrowed slightly, then suddenly widened, with a dark red hue between his pupils. Four scales fluttered behind him, and a murderous intent rose into the sky.
Kaneki was caught off guard by the murderous intent rising into the sky and was pushed off the chair. He fell to the ground and groaned in pain.
“Hey, what do you want to do? Are you going to tear down this place?” A cold female voice came from the sky, and Shoji Takenaka’s four scales immediately stabbed at the person rushing towards him, but after realizing it was Touka, she froze in mid-air. In that instant, her knee slammed down on Shoji Takenaka’s lower abdomen.
Puff
Takenaka Shoji suddenly bent down.
Author’s words: Due to special circumstances tonight, I barely managed to update half a chapter in the dormitory late at night with the help of my roommates. Dear readers, please forgive me and I will make it up another day. After all, it is not good to disturb my classmates too much in the middle of the night.
I would like to express my gratitude to my roommate who doesn t mind my noise, my good teammate from China who uses his cell phone to provide me with a flashlight, and the readers who don t abandon this book. I would like to express my gratitude here, thank you!
Good night and sweet dreams~
Eight (old version)
“You,” Touka looked at Takenaka Shoji who was lying in pain on the ground, a trace of pain flashed across her eyes, she turned around, and fiery red droplets gushed out from her shoulders. A gorgeous single wing appeared in front of the two of them, like a burning flame, flashing bright light, and the abyss-like bright eyes attacked Tsukiyama Shuu with a thousand-year-old coldness.
“Next – it’s your turn! Come out with me!”
Dong Xiang said coldly.
It was just bad luck that caused Dong Xiang to have that strange dream. She was feeling upset.
“Ding ding ding…” Countless feather needles shot by Yu He madly poured down on Yue Shan Xi’s arm wrapped around Jia He, splashing countless sparks. Under such a fierce attack, Yue Shan Xi smiled.
“Dong Xiang, what do you want to say? Although your moves are fierce, they do not carry any murderous intent. Is there something wrong that forced me away from the people in the antiques and called me here alone?” He emphasized the word “alone” and made his words very ambiguous.
Dongxiang silently put away her kagune.
Although the “gourmet” Tsukiyama Shuu is a bit perverted, he is indeed a smart man. After all, how many people who can become S-rank ghouls are fools?
“Tsukiyama family,” Touka ignored Tsukiyama’s ambiguous tone and calmed down after putting away her kagune.
“With the power of the Yueshan Family, it should be easy to find an ordinary person, right?”
“Oh?” Yueshan raised his chin and raised his eyebrows with interest.
In the evening, Dong Xiang dragged her tired body back to Antiques.
Yizi said that since she seemed to be in a bad mood recently, she specially made more “loving dishes”.
It s a pity that I don t have the blessing to enjoy it.
“Ms. Touka…are you okay?” Takenaka Shoji said this. It was impossible for him not to be worried. Fortunately, she looked fine and should have come back after school.
When he first met Tsukiyama Shuu, he discovered that his strength might be more than S-level. Now, after several years of fighting together, what kind of strength would he have?
S-class? S+? SS? Half-hertz?
The more he thought about it, the more worried he became. It was getting later and later, and school was long over. At the last second before he was ready to go out to look for her, the unique bell sound of the antique door was heard.
Dong Xiang’s tired face came into view.
fine?
fine
My heart finally settled down, but then it picked up again.
Because her face was unusually pale.
Injured? Yueshan, that bastard…
If it wasn’t Yueshan Xi back then, I wouldn’t have met him, right?
Xia Li.
With just two simple words, the wound on my heart that had not yet fully healed was instantly torn open, bleeding profusely and causing unbearable pain.
If I were stronger…if I had been…
He wouldn’t be in a state of uncertainty about whether he was dead or alive now.
Unfortunately, there are no ifs.
“Ms. Dong Xiang…are you okay?” He seemed to have been struggling for a long time before he stammered to ask this question.
On the side, Gu Jian Yuan’er and Iruma Xuan stopped what they were doing at the same time. Gu Jian Yuan’er turned her head away, and Iruma Xuan also paid attention to everything with her peripheral vision.
“Huh…” Dong Xiang sighed, and a warm current flowed in her heart. “It’s okay.” Feeling everyone’s emotions, Dong Xiang tilted her head and said with disdain, “Tsukiyama Shuu, that pervert, is not capable of causing any harm to me.”
As expected, the sad expression doesn’t suit Dong Xiang, it would be better if he had some energy.
Furuma Yuan’er and Takenaka Shoji smiled at each other, understanding each other tacitly. Even Iruma Xuan’s lips slightly raised in a hidden corner.
antique
What lovely people…
Standing quietly in a secluded corner outside the antique shop, a dazzling smile appeared on the half of his face not covered by the mask. His eyes swept across the faces of Touka and Takenaka Shoji with some lingering feeling, and finally he turned around and left as if he had made up his mind.
The ambiguous glow of the neon lights fell quietly, and the white half-mask reflected a cool white light, like crying and complaining.
“Hmm?” Dong Xiang turned her head and looked out the window as if she had sensed something.
But I saw nothing.
Is it an illusion?
Everyone was having a great time with antiques, except for the store manager Fangcun who was sitting deep in the counter, who quietly hid the cold light in his eyes.
No matter who you are…I will not allow you to hurt these children.
Something cold was slowly accumulating in the store manager’s heart.
“Yo.” A flash of gold passed by quickly, Kaneki’s head was pressed down hard, and Nagachika Hideyoshi’s face was filled with a sunny smile.
“Eirang.” Kaneki complained softly, “You really are…”
“Haha!” As if he felt very accomplished about his own prank, Nagachika Hideyoshi laughed unscrupulously.
“How about going out for something to eat? I recently discovered a really good hamburger restaurant.” After a moment of silence, Nagachika Hideyoshi felt that the atmosphere was not right and began to look for topics to talk about.
Although their previous relationship pattern had always been that he talked and Kaneki listened, occasionally when he talked about topics that Kaneki was interested in, Kaneki would also respond to him.
But recently Kaneki…
Nagachika Hideyoshi was a little worried.
Kaneki…
What happened to you…
Hamburger shop… He pulled his eyelids helplessly. What a terrible topic…
Kaneki thought so.
“Is it really right to rather hurt yourself than hurt others?” Rize’s voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
Kamishiro Rize…
This man who changed his life…
Leading myself into this cruel world…
Fortunately, I met Manager Yoshimura, Touka, and Miss Iruma, and met these lovely people in the antique world…
“What’s wrong?” Yingliang’s somewhat worried voice brought Kaneki back to his senses.
Oh, and him…
Yingliang…
“No, I won’t go to the burger shop.”
“Why?”
“Maybe it’s because I was discharged from the hospital not long ago… I don’t have much of an appetite yet…” With a slightly evasive look in his eyes, Kaneki gave a far-fetched explanation.
Can’t be discovered by Yingliang…
Touka said that if humans knew the true identity of the ghoul…
It must be wiped out!
Kaneki thought painfully.
Yingliang’s tone was a little regretful, but his eyes suddenly focused, and his sharp gaze fell on Kaneki’s hand that was touching his chin.
The light that sees through everything shines brightly.
What are you hiding?
Can’t you let me share your pain?
Nine (old version)
“Welcome to Hell…”
” “Who are you?
Destruction… hatred… pain… darkness… blood… distortion… cruelty… bloodthirstiness…
Countless screams mixed with spilled blood, blue veins popped out from the bodies, countless familiar figures flashed in the sea of ??corpses and blood, countless familiar voices rang out, and the strong smell of blood filled the air, making people nauseous and suffocated.
“Kill you!”
The blood-red ocean was rolling.
He pressed his temples frantically, and the beast-like roar coming from the depths of his soul kept lingering in his ears. His head was splitting with pain, and deep blue knives broke out of his body and quietly covered every inconspicuous corner of his body.
Those who are struggling in pain…
Hear your prayers…
Gather all your songs into a soul-shaking cry
“I’ll be waiting for you in hell!”
Ah !!! He screamed at the top of his lungs, his hollow pupils dilated and shaking in fear.
He curled up in the corner, his sweat-soaked hair hanging softly on his forehead, and his dull and lifeless face looked like a lifeless rag doll that was played with by a child.
“Why…” The voice was so fragile that it seemed like it would break at the slightest touch, and she murmured in a crying voice, “Why… Why is it like this…” The transparent crystal slid down the fair face and shattered on the stone floor.
The lifeless pupils were covered in deep darkness, with a faint flash of red light.
“I’m done “

Gurgle gurgle ding
The crisp sound of the silver spoon colliding with the porcelain cup echoed, and Takenaka frowned in pain.
The surface of the coffee illuminated by the light reflected his somewhat tired face.
The short time did not leave anything on that young face, but the vicissitudes and fatigue in his eyes proved everything. Although not much time had passed… but people…
But it’s completely different.
The aroma of coffee surrounded his nostrils, and a calm smile slowly spread across his face, which had long exuded a murderous aura.
The warm goose yellow light sprinkled on the wooden floor, creating a faint warmth and bringing a touch of warmth to the breeze blowing in late autumn.
An Ding District…?
That kind old man… Iruma who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside… Cheerful Kouma, clumsy Emma, ??taciturn Shifang, tsundere Touka… Oh, and that silly but gentle newcomer Kaneki…
Not to mention, that gentle look is really similar to Xia Li…
Xia Li…
Takenaka Shoji himself didn’t really understand his feelings. If he was simply thanking him for saving his life, he wouldn’t have lost his mind over and over again…
I wouldn’t be so inexplicably heartbroken about his disappearance…
Strange and complex emotions were churning in my chest, repeating over and over again without any peace.
Can I see you again…
The light of the “Antique Cafe” sign that was originally glowing dimmed at some point, no longer having the warmth it once had…
“Ding-ling…” The sound of the bell when the door was opened and closed rang, and the footsteps gradually faded away.
At the bottom of the white porcelain cup with blue and white patterns, there was still a trace of dark brown left, swirling unwillingly at the bottom of the cup, as if trying to retain something…
His lips were tightly pursed into a line, and he stubbornly tried to hold back the tears that were about to burst out, letting them swirl in his eye sockets. The veins on the back of his hand that was holding the silver mask bulged, and the sobs of struggle came out of his throat in broken and intermittent sounds.
The street lights flickered a few times and then went out. The street, which had little moonlight to begin with, was now shrouded in darkness.
A dark red light suddenly lit up in the even darkness, and a silver light flashed. A slender figure quickly swept away and disappeared into the distant horizon.
A deep, hoarse voice still echoed in the dark alley.

“Today’s introducer is… Mr. MM!” The host held the microphone and screamed wildly. The atmosphere in the venue was instantly ignited and reached the highest point. It was obvious that the host was proficient in this job.
Kaneki, wearing a small suit, stood on the stage with a confused look on his face.
“Kaneki!” Takenaka, who had been forcibly suppressing his murderous intent, was suddenly set off.
This guy Yueshan, it s really hard to change his nature!
Amid everyone’s cheers, Kaneki seemed to finally realize what was happening, and his handsome face was full of disbelief, while Tsukiyama Shuu was enjoying everyone’s applause and cheers without a care in the world, looking very comfortable, which was in stark contrast to Kaneki.
The appearance of the Corpse Releaser undoubtedly made Kaneki’s already bad condition even worse. Looking at the burly man chasing Kaneki everywhere, Tsukiyama supported his chin with great interest, and seemed to be very satisfied with the show.
Then the smiling expression froze.
Because he saw a scene that he couldn’t believe.
Single eye, appear!
One-eyed ghoul?
Everyone in the audience gasped.
One in a million!
In the blink of an eye, the corpse-slayer’s blade was close to Kaneki’s body, and blood was about to splatter on the spot.
Red and blue lights flashed suddenly, and the corpse-slayer was split into four pieces. A tragic aura instantly spread throughout the place!
“Tsukiyama Xi.”
The deep and hoarse voice has a unique magnetism.
“Shoji Takenaka…” Tsukiyama Xi smiled faintly, “Are you here for a snack? It’s… great!!!” His face suddenly twisted and his tone suddenly rose.
Really… showing your bottom line…
He frowned in disgust.
boom–
As Tsukiyama roared, the sharp armor easily pierced through Takenaka Shoji’s chest.
The four scales stacked on his chest in a defensive position were pierced effortlessly, and he was not even able to slow down Tsukiyama’s attack.
Flash sale!
Blood splattered the night.
“You must be kidding…” Takenaka Shoji looked at the four scales pierced in front of him in disbelief. He could even see Tsukiyama’s distorted face through the bowl-sized hole.
This is… S-rank… Sigh…
Ten (old version)
Boom
Yueshan licked his lips excitedly, his mind filled with the taste of the sweet and tender texture melting in his mouth. The corners of his lips curled up – it was a gourmet feast that he hadn’t had in a long time!
He thought so.
A crazy smile and an expression of disbelief were reflected on the stained glass, facing the shocking bloodstains on the ground. Suddenly, a bright stream of light quickly flashed across the blood, and then it suddenly shattered. Countless broken glass shards on the glass ceiling fell like raindrops, and a black figure fell from the sky.
“Bang!!!”
The earth-shaking sound and violent impact force quickly spread out from the person who landed on the ground, and the entire ground began to shake violently. Many weak ghouls in the audience were knocked to the ground.
The center of the entire platform was slightly concave, and a not-so-tall figure slowly walked out of the smoke. The purple pupils under the white mask flashed with amethyst light, which was extremely captivating.
“What beautiful eyes…”
Yue Shan Xi has gone mad. He roared crazily, his hands were open, his eyes were wide open, and his face was distorted. “Dig it out and put it next to the two main dishes as a side dish…”
He kicked the ground hard, and the marble surface, which was already full of cracks, collapsed instantly, rushing towards Yue Shan Xi at a speed that was difficult to capture with the naked eye.
Ziziz
He barely dodged the attack. The wind from his fist blew up Yueshan Xi’s hair and collapsed a thick wall behind the audience seats. He broke out in a cold sweat and no longer dared to hold on to any chance of luck.
What kind of monster is this guy?
Yueshan Xi no longer dared to underestimate him. He solemnly assumed a fighting stance, protected his upper body, and looked at the young man with a white mask in the distance with a wary look on his face.
Is it human?
No… How could humans have such strength?
Without using Quinque, no matter how strong it is, it can’t be this ridiculous, right?
…(Arima smiled but said nothing.)
There was a gleam of light in his eyes, Yueshan Xi lowered his body, twisted his waist to an incredible angle, and his fists and feet collided. After a dull sound, the figures of both men shook slightly.
There was a moment of hesitation in the eyes behind the mask, and he was obviously startled by the strange twist of Yueshan’s waist. The Kaihe flew out from a tricky angle and caught the boy off guard, forcing him to retreat repeatedly.
But that s all.
He swung his right hand downward violently.
The spurting blood was reflected in his shrunken pupils, and countless bloody wounds on Yueshan Xi’s body burst open.
when ?!
A terrifying purple light suddenly leaped up, and long, bony fingers landed on Yueshan’s shoulder and tore it back fiercely.
Ahhhhhh!!!
A scream was heard, and the RC liquid mixed with dark red blood in the strained bag gushed out wildly. Then he was kicked away and rolled on the ground for a long distance like a rag bag.
“Bang.”
After everything calmed down, a slight collision sound was heard, as if it was the sound of Yueshan hitting the stone wall in the distance.
The purple light gradually dimmed, revealing a familiar clear gaze. Liulizi’s eyes swept around, and she seemed very satisfied with the mess around her. When her eyes passed by Takenaka Shoji, she paused for a moment, and then a smile flashed across her face.
“Hey.” He gently placed his hand on his face and took off the mask. “Long time no see.”
It was as if something blocked his throat and he could no longer make a sound.
I thought about it every day when we weren’t together, but when we met, I didn’t know what to say…
In fact, Takenaka Shoji didn’t understand Fujikawa at all, what kind of person he was, what he liked, what he hated, and even his personal habits… or so it should be said.
If there was no Yueshan Xi, then they would be two straight lines that would never intersect – but Yueshan Xi appeared.
They also did not intersect, but overlapped.
The two of them were standing and lying like this, Kaneki on one side was a little at a loss, looking at this and that, unable to make up his mind.
“…Welcome back.” After thinking for a long time, he said this dryly. Takenaka Shoji couldn’t help but smile bitterly in his heart.
“That guy,” Xia Li pointed with her chin in the direction where Yue Shanxi flew out, “I leave it to you. Defeat him yourself.”
Takenaka Shoji smiled.
Unfortunately, the smile was filled with bitterness, uglier than crying. Xia Li raised his eyebrows in surprise. His strength was always hovering around S-level. The reason was that Yue Shan Xi had become a knot in his heart, and his strength could never improve. If he was allowed to defeat him personally…
Unfortunately, Xia Li really took it for granted.
I’m afraid even Takenaka Shoji himself isn’t very clear about what he’s thinking, but he knows one thing.
If he, Takenaka Shoji, had not met Tsukiyama Shuu, his fate would not have crossed paths with Fujikawa Kari. So if Tsukiyama Shuu was eliminated…
Perhaps, their intersection will really disappear from now on…
Unreasonable.
He couldn’t understand what he was thinking about. Souji Takenaka rubbed his hair in distress. Seeing Xia Li was about to leave, he couldn’t think of any words to keep him.
“Who am I to him? Why should I let him stay? And… why do I want him to stay so much?… Wait… qualifications…” An idea suddenly came to his mind.
He spoke, a few short words, and then suddenly stopped in his tracks.
“Xia Li,” he said in a hoarse voice, a little hesitant and a little uneasy, “Dong Xiang is very concerned about your absence.”
“Really?” The upper half of his face was in shadow, so his eyes couldn’t be seen clearly, but the corners of his lips above his pointed chin were slightly raised. “I know.”
A warm feeling welled up in my heart. The feeling of being needed and cared about by others…is really not bad.
He walked away with brisk and joyful steps, but did not notice the lowered head and unwilling expression behind him.
Eleven (old version)
Gurgle gurgle
The canned coffee in the vending machine rolled down, and a faint sigh was heard in the thin rain.
Fine raindrops covered everything around me. I gently pulled the pull ring, and after a crisp sound, the rich smell of coffee lingered on my lips.
Remember, it was also a rainy day.
Really? Why should I walk back with you? It s raining so hard The boy complained as he tightened his school uniform which had turned from light blue to a slightly darker color due to the rain.
“You didn’t have to come!” The girl who was holding the notebook on her head to keep out the rain said angrily, “I didn’t force you to come!”
Yeah?
…right…
The girl glanced at the boy next to her guiltily, and then breathed a sigh of relief when she found that he had no objection.
“By the way,” the boy seemed to suddenly remember something, stopped suddenly, and began to take off his clothes.
“Hey, what are you doing…” His next action interrupted the girl’s words.
The coat he took off was directly put on the girl’s head. “Hey, you idiot,” he said, “Don’t get sick tomorrow? I saw the homework book you used to keep out the rain just now, it’s wet, right?”
“Eh?” The last sentence was a bit confusing. The girl’s confused voice came from under her clothes, sounding a bit muffled.
“The homework book is wet!” the boy deliberately repeated, “If you don’t hand in your homework tomorrow, or if you get sick, there will be no one to stand with me when I’m punished!” As he said this, his smile became brighter where the girl couldn’t see.
“…” The faint smell on the clothes made my heart calm down unconsciously. It’s a pity that I won’t get sick. I’m a ghoul…
yes.
I am… a man-eating ghoul.
A gloomy look flashed across his drooping eyes.
“Hmm?” Not getting the expected response, the boy looked at the girl next to him in surprise, as if he was keenly aware of her emotions.
What on earth are you hiding in your heart…
It took a long time.
You…you’re actually sick yourself!
The girl looked at the boy who kept sneezing with helplessness. This guy is really an idiot.
The soft and beautiful face in my memory…
How long has it been since we last saw each other?
I’m a little concerned.
Put on your school uniform again, regain your mood, and start all over again…
But would you still choose this?
The drizzle was still falling, and the empty coffee can drew a graceful arc and fell into the trash can.
He smiled quietly, looking at the gray sky.
Kirishima Touka.
Don’t even think about running away, no matter what you think…
I will never let myself regret it again…
Although I haven’t found my complete self yet… I still can’t find the blank space in my memory…
However, I firmly believe that…
I stopped without realizing it, and my body froze when I met that familiar gaze.
It turns out that I have walked back to the school gate without knowing when?
He had been thinking about what the scene would be like when they met again…but he didn’t expect everything to happen so suddenly, so quickly that it disrupted his calmness and all his plans.
“…” She didn’t say anything, just looked at him. Her light blue eyes revealed an infinitely complicated expression that made him feel at a loss.
“If you don’t make a decision, you will suffer the consequences.” He silently said this in his heart. He took a decisive step forward, stretched out his hands, and hugged her in his arms. “
She remained silent, just quietly grasping his collar and listening to his heartbeat, “I’m back.”
It wasn’t until he said this that she felt relieved.
“Hey, you two.” A nice female voice came from the side, “You two…don’t get too involved!”
Dong Xiang suddenly came to her senses and remembered that Yizi was beside her. Half of her face turned red. “Yizi, we…that…”
“Don’t explain, I understand.” Yizi’s half-smile and knowing tone made Dongxiang feel ashamed and angry. “This guy…he…”
Looking at Yiko who had understood everything and Dong Xiang who was anxious, Xia Li’s mood unconsciously became cheerful, but there was always a layer of faint haze surrounding her ears.
Dong Xiang…
Is it really you…
He did not forget the purpose of this trip…
“Fujikawa Ichi, do you have any clues today?”
” No.”
“I heard that you were once a student at Qingmi High School… What do you think of revisiting the old place?”
“Mado-senpai…” Amon spoke hurriedly when he noticed that the atmosphere was wrong.
“You don’t need to care about this, you old pervert with wide eyes.” Fujikawa Kari had no respect at all for this old senior.
In response to the contemptuous words of the genius investigator, Mado Wuxu smiled disapprovingly and said, “If you keep associating with those beasts and scum, you will end up dying a miserable death… Fujikawa Ichideng.” A light of insight shone brightly in his eyes.
“…” His pupils suddenly shrank and his back was covered with cold sweat.
This guy…did he feel anything?
“Hey, you guy,” Fujikawa Kari finally got angry, “Why are you so aggressive and talking nonsense as soon as you come back? You only care about your beloved Quinque, but they fill your brain with them?”
“Fujikawa Ichido…” Yamen hurriedly turned around and tried to persuade Xia Li to leave.
“Fujikawa Kari, the eldest son of the Fujikawa family,” Mado continued to talk to himself, “a genius investigator, with terrible combat talent and combat instincts. He became proficient and mastered Quinque within just two months of contact, and successfully repelled S-class ghouls many times. In the end, he successfully expelled the SS-class ghoul Mobi, and became the genius investigator of CCG second only to Arima. But the weird thing is that he never kills ghouls, but only captures them alive, and would rather let them go than kill them… right? So can I assume that you are in collusion with ghouls…”
What a terrible intuition.
It turns out that the guess is almost right.
Twelve (Old Version)
Are you just pretending to be angry to get away with it?
Fujikawa Kari looked at the backs of the two of them as they left, and still felt a little scared in her heart.
Is that Mado Wuxu?
This is a scary guy… Intuition…
You idiot, don’t let them catch you…
“Where is this?”
When I opened my eyes, I found myself in a strange world. Who am I?
“Boo “
A few bubbles popped up and then burst, making a few soft noises, and an ecstatic voice rang out, “It’s done!”
The experiment was a success.
Great, this is a great result~
“Codename 4, the fourth test product has finally succeeded.”
who are they?
So annoying.
Those people in white coats looked at her with ecstasy and fiery eyes. The greed in their eyes was obvious, which made her extremely uncomfortable. She widened her eyes, and one of her brown eyes was occupied by deep darkness. The world before her eyes was blood red.
“Yes, One-Eye!” He seemed to be the most senior person in the white coats. He said, “Go and report to the king. Tell him that the experiment was successful and the fusion progress is perfect.”
A man responded, turned around and strode away.
She turned her head and looked around, and found herself wrapped in a huge glass container filled with unknown liquid. Her long hair was floating wildly in the water. She shook her head a few times, and her hair also began to sway wildly, like a bunch of crazy seaweed.
The leader of the group in white coats came over, put his hand on the glass, and greedily observed the person in front of him.
Being stared at like this by a group of people, she finally got angry. Two light blue knives quickly emerged from her waist and made attacking movements in the glass container.
The leader in the white coat said happily, “It’s Lin He… That’s great.”
“Bang, bang–” The light blue sword fell suddenly on the glass, but the seemingly thin glass did not move at all, which showed that it was extremely strong.
“It’s useless. This glass cannot be broken without an S-level strong kagune.”
But no one noticed that her vision was scattered and out of focus at this moment
The person in my memory…
In a world of ice and snow, there stood a person quietly
His purple hair swayed slightly in the wind. He stretched out his hand, with a faint tenderness entwined between his fingers.
He smiled slightly, and the gentle curve of his lips seemed to be able to melt all the icebergs around him…
She reached out her hand, toward the slender hand that was stretched out…
But it’s getting farther and farther away…
Don’t go!
“Impossible!” The leader in the white coat stared at the cracked glass in disbelief.
The sharp part of the light blue kagune continued to expand in the pupil, and finally turned into a splatter of beautiful blood.
“Clea la la–” Countless glass fragments mixed with water droplets flew around like snowflakes, leaving tiny wounds on the bodies of countless scientists in white coats.
Looking at the receding figure, she hurriedly chased after it, but was blocked by countless monsters.
“You all… go to hell…”
The light blue kagune was like the scythe of the god of death, ruthlessly reaping lives everywhere.
Scream… in the hell of blood and pain…
The mindless killing finally stopped at a touch of lake green.
“Ah my – how did it become like this?” A soft female voice lingered in my ears, “What a disobedient bad kid… Number Four…”
Fujikawa Kari smiled bitterly.
“You really think highly of me…” He glanced at the two figures in front and behind. “I am a first-class person… I can actually trouble you two to come… It’s really…”
“SS-level, tiger scorpion, and SS-level… demon.”
It really is… living in a dream.
Perhaps, when you become an investigator, you should have been prepared, right? Almost all investigators never get to retire safely…
There is nothing we can do when encountering such a thing…
But… I won’t give up just like that…
“Then come on!” He pushed the ground with one foot and turned into a black shadow and rushed forward. The dark purple Quinque and the crimson Weihe quickly exchanged several rounds. They were surprisingly equal in strength and speed. Tiger Scorpion looked at the young investigator in front of him with surprise.
He has such a strong strength at such a young age. I am really glad that I met him today…
Just the right time to kill the genius!
Avoid your future self from falling victim to it!
The monsters in the rear seemed to have discovered this problem as well. They didn’t care about outnumbering the weak and joined the battle directly. The original evenly matched situation was instantly broken, and Xia Li’s situation suddenly became worse.
The tiger scorpion’s tail hexagon slammed down, and Xia Li pushed the purple hexagon backwards, but she misjudged the huge power of the tail hexagon, and her movements froze involuntarily. The demon seized the opportunity very well, and leaned forward, and the sharp hexagon pierced Xia Li’s waist. Xia Li hurriedly turned her body to avoid the fatal blow that could have pierced her waist, but a long wound was left from the upper waist to the ribs, bringing up a puff of blood.
He kicked the tiger scorpion away and stabbed the purple Quinque with all his strength, landing on the demon’s Yuhe, pushing her back.
Covering the wound under his ribs, his vision began to blur due to fatigue and excessive blood loss.
The demon and the tiger scorpion did not attack again, but quietly watched Xia Li in the middle from a distance
For an ordinary human being, this amount of bleeding is enough to kill him and there is no chance of survival. So why waste energy?
What a pity.
Is Xia Li an ordinary human being?
With a burning fighting spirit in his eyes, he raised his eyes.
I haven’t found my past yet, I haven’t fulfilled the housekeeper’s long-cherished wish, and…
she
How can I die so easily here?
The pupils suddenly lit up with purple-gold light!
It s better to leave quickly!
In Tokyo at night, the neon lights in the distance illuminated the winding blood lines on the ground, which was breathtakingly beautiful. In that inconspicuous alley, there lay a person and two bodies. The blood that splashed in the night had solidified, and the beautiful pupils looked at the sky with dilated eyes…
Yeah…
I won…
Dong Xiang… It’s a pity… I may not be able to find you again…
Thirteen (old version)
The sound of hurried footsteps echoed in his ears. Kotaro Amon ran quickly, with a strong sense of uneasiness rolling in his heart, as if something bad was about to happen.
“Hey, why are you lying here like a dead person… You’re not like this the way I know you!”
“Hey, wake up! How could I let you die without knowing why?”
“Hello–“
A very familiar voice…
Who is this woman…?
There was a hint of light brown in the dilated pupils.
“Hey! Fujikawa Ichideng!” The voice suddenly changed, and Amon’s voice rang in his ears, “Wake up! Hey…!”
The light brown color before losing consciousness fell into his eyes and was engraved in his heart.
Who is it…?
The red light was on in the operating room, and the glaring red light reflected on the old face of Mado Wuxu, which inexplicably took on a gloomy atmosphere. Yamen lowered his eyebrows, looked at the glaring red of the operating room, and said dejectedly: “I didn’t expect Fujikawa… to be able to do this.” His low voice was mixed with three parts of admiration, three parts of regret, three parts of loss and a trace of inexplicable depression.
“A person who bleeds more than 2000cc will die, that’s beyond doubt, but the person in front of me has lost far more than that, and the blood loss is almost more than 50% of his body. A normal person would have died long ago, but not only is he not dead, his wound has scabbed over. The scab is not his own blood, it should be the blood of a ghoul with strong recovery ability. Maybe he tried to save himself before he lost consciousness…” The doctor in the operating room couldn’t help but stand in awe after learning about the situation. “This guy… has such a strong willpower… He is worthy of being the most talented investigator of the younger generation of CCG…”
Using one person’s power… to drive away two SS-rank ghouls…
Apart from Matt and others… I’m afraid there are not many people in the entire CCG who can possess such ability, right?
Mado leaned quietly against the wall. His hunched back and white hair made him look older than ever before.
He stared blankly at the door of the operating room, with a complicated expression on his face and mixed feelings in his heart, unable to tell whether he was relieved or regretful.
The determined figure of the woman as she was left alone to cover the retreat flashed before his eyes again. Mado’s face became ferocious, and the ring under his white gloves seemed to have taken on a scorching temperature, making him feel extremely painful.
“Another genius has risen…Xiao…”
Surprised by Mado Wuxu’s performance, Amen looked at Mado Wuxu in amazement. The terrible murderous intent came like a tidal wave, and his burly body couldn’t help but take a few steps back.
“Mado…senior?” Yamen called out Mado Wuxu’s name in a shocking voice, bringing him back to his senses.
What’s going on?
Although Mado-senpai is a bit cold and indifferent, people who know him know that he is a very kind senior unless he is expelling ghouls. They have never seen him lose his composure like this…
Mado-senpai…what happened?
“Report!” A CCG intelligence officer came hurriedly, “……”
“Oh?” Mado Wuxu quickly sorted out his emotions, raised his eyebrows, and showed an interested expression.
Little mouse, I can’t help but take action…
Mado couldn’t stop sneering in his heart.
“Well… rain that falls suddenly is called a shower…”
Kaneki looked at the little girl in front of him, his tender expression almost overflowing.
“Hey…big brother,” Hinami lowered her head and looked at the book. It was hard to tell the expression on her face. She asked as if she didn’t care, “When will Dad come back?”
“Ah…well…” Kaneki’s grey crystal eyes revealed some confusion, “Hinami’s father…will be back soon.” Kaneki replied hesitantly.
“I’m sorry!” A gentle female voice came from behind, “I’m sorry to trouble you…Kaneki-kun.” She said this apologetically.
“Ah, no… nothing.” Kaneki quickly stood up from the sofa.
Looking at Miss Fuekou who was holding the child and whispering softly to comfort him, Kaneki’s lips raised a gentle arc.
Actually, ghouls and humans are the same, right?
They yearn for happiness, and they also have their own family, friendship, and love, as well as their own joys, sorrows, anger, and happiness.
Hinami-chan… is really happy.
Unfortunately, he didn’t know that fate was playing a big joke on him.
He waved goodbye to Miss Fuekou and Hinami, who was with her, and gently closed the door of “Antique”.
The door closed gently with a “click”, as if separating two worlds. At that moment, Kaneki felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart. He put his hands on his chest, where the heat was beating restlessly, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.
“What’s going on?”
Kaneki looked at his palm with some confusion. He really couldn’t understand where this inexplicable emotion came from.
A light drizzle was floating in the sky. Kaneki frowned slightly, wearing a light green sweatshirt and holding an umbrella as he strolled on the rainy street. A familiar petite figure suddenly flashed before his eyes, causing his pupils to shrink suddenly.
“You bastards don’t deserve to live in this world!” The mother pursed her lips tightly and covered her mouth with her hands to stop herself from crying out.
The scent of her father that Hinami smelled… was…
It s the Quinque in the hands of the white-haired investigator!
She resolutely unfolded her pale yellow armor, exchanging the last glimmer of hope for her child.
“You have such a good kagune, but you don’t know how to use it. You are not only scum and livestock, but also the most useless trash…” Intentionally lowering his voice, Mado Wuxu’s voice was like metal rubbing on sandpaper, sharp and hoarse, “Then, let me see what kind of expression you, a weak animal, will have before you die…”
Kaneki tightened his grip on Hinami’s hand, stopped at the corner in horror, and covered Hinami’s eyes and mouth.
By this time… Hinami should have returned to the antique world, right?
Dikou thought, this… that’s great, I can go see him with peace of mind…
Looking up, the twisted and cold investigator’s face was twisted in astonishment. He had never seen a ghoul like this before… Death was imminent, but not only was he not moved at all, he even showed a gentle and nostalgic expression towards the Quinque in the investigator’s hand… It was as if he was looking forward to the arrival of this Quinque…
How is this possible! Ghouls are all livestock. These livestock cannot and do not deserve to have emotions!
Mado Wuxu raised the Quinque in his hand frantically, and then dropped it heavily.
Under the quiet rain curtain, the only sound was the slight sound of someone falling to the ground.
“Mmm!” Hinami struggled violently in Kaneki’s arms. She seemed to have understood what was happening. Warm tears flowed out from between Kaneki’s fingers as he covered her eyes. Kaneki’s constricted pupils shook a few times.
Why
Why can I only watch Xiao Hina’s relatives being killed…
Kaneki nailed his back hard against the concrete wall. The tiny protrusions on the rough concrete wall sank deeply into the flesh of his back, causing him excruciating pain, but not in his back, but in his chest.
He gritted his teeth, if it wasn’t me…
It was Dong Xiang, it was Mr. Shifang… Maybe Miss Fuekou would not die…
It’s all my fault… They, they just wanted to survive… If I had stopped them in the coffee shop… If…
Unfortunately, there is no if.
The rain was getting heavier, and the cool breeze mixed with the raindrops was bitingly cold.
Fourteen (old version)
Click… Click…” The minute hand swung mercilessly, the sunset slowly sank, the whole antique was dyed bright red by the sunset through the window, and the bitter smell of coffee spread to every corner of the hall.
The quiet atmosphere is mixed with desolation and sadness.
An atmosphere of sadness surrounded everyone’s heart. Everyone was doing their work as usual, but the words in the brief responses inexplicably revealed a heaviness and depression.
“Everyone…what’s going on?” Noticing that the atmosphere among everyone was not normal, Dong Xiang, who had just returned home from school, put down her schoolbag, looked at everyone uneasily and raised her own questions.
“Hinami’s parents… were killed by Hakubato.” The manager’s expression was as deep and solemn as a deep pool, and it seemed as if a violent storm was brewing behind the calmness.
Dong Xiang’s expression froze. “What about her face? Has her face been seen?”
The expressions of the crowd clearly explained it all; the answer was yes.
“We decided to send Hinami to live in District 24, where…”
“Wait!” Dong Xiang interrupted the manager angrily. This was very rare. She always respected the manager’s decision. “How can Hinami survive in a place where there are so many scum and garbage? If… if we can get rid of those white pigeons who saw her face… with the manager, Mr. Shifang, and… we can definitely do it!”
“Dong Xiang,” the store manager said seriously, “Doing so will only make District 20 unstable and will cause more and more white pigeons to come to this district… I must consider everyone’s safety…”
“But if that’s the case, wouldn’t it be pitiful for Xiao Hina, who is still so young and can’t even avenge her parents?”
“What’s really pitiful is… because of revenge, you can’t live your own life…” The store manager sighed deeply, “Hatred… you can’t cut off hatred…”
Dong Xiang’s face turned pale and her breathing became rapid: “Aren’t you talking about me?”
Bang!
There was a loud slam of a door and Dong Xiang rushed out in a hurry.
“Manager…” Kaneki looked at Yoshimura, but seemed to be hesitant to speak.
“It’s her choice.”
“But!” Kaneki wanted to say something, but was stopped by the manager with a wave of his hand.
It was just a normal day.
Ordinary, but not peaceful.
As usual, the mediocre people drag their tired bodies home from get off work and enjoy the ordinary happiness. This is how human beings are. They blame others and complain about the injustice of the world in their ordinary happiness, but they never think about how many people envy and desire such a life of theirs.
Outside the CCG20 District Branch Building.
Two middle-aged men with ordinary looks were discussing the delicious snacks. Their faces were filled with happy smiles, which made passers-by look sideways. But when they saw the CCG uniforms on the two men, they all looked at them with respect and smiled kindly.
They returned the greetings in a friendly manner, without feeling annoyed, even though they were eager to return home and were thinking about their wives and children.
They are just ordinary CCG civilian staff, but they are truly doing what they can for humanity and doing their best to contribute to humanity.
Nothing could be more reassuring than this.
They unconsciously quickened their pace, thinking of going home earlier, but they did not realize that the road they were taking was not just a road home, but also a road to death.
Twisted people, twisted hatred… and this twisted world.
A black shadow flashed by quickly with a faint fragrance, bringing the message of death.
Blood splattered, lives were lost, and everything was settled in an instant.
“Grassland!” another man said, his eyes wide open. “No!”
He ran madly towards his old friend who was stained with blood, crying out loud, “Why!” Turbid tears dripped onto the blood-stained face, “He didn’t do anything… why…”
The expression on the face hidden by the rabbit mask could not be seen, and the rabbit raised its arms again.
“Swoosh “
This was the scene that Yamon saw when he arrived. He quickly swooped down to save another person, and stared at the ghoul wearing a rabbit mask in front of him with a serious expression.
In fact, it is quite strong… which means it is at least an S-rank ghoul… and it doesn’t even have Quinque…
Ah, it s really a headache.
The rabbit kept pressing forward, and Yamen retreated step by step, until his back hit the wall, with no way to retreat!
“Amen… For us investigators, we have to keep fighting even if our limbs are broken… Because, this is…”
Even if both hands are broken, we must continue to fight.
Because this is… faith!
Just as Amon was about to let go and fight to the death, the pale yellow whip-like armor Hekuink swept by and blocked Touka’s attack.

“It seems that you have made up your mind?” It was clearly a question, but it was expressed in an affirmative way, and a strange light flashed in the eyes behind the glasses.
“Yes.” The white-haired investigator in front of him clearly did not make any movements, but his aura was higher than ever before, making him almost breathless.
“CCG’s Death God”, “the strongest investigator”, Arima Takamasa.
Looking at the young man in front of him who was already a little pale, a hint of hidden satisfaction flashed across Arima’s face.
Even though he is still a little immature, he is already using his incomplete “momentum” to resist the pressure from me. He is so young but has already reached such a level. Maybe he can surpass me in the future… Who knows?
The momentum lightened.
“How is your injury?” The human in every sense of the word stared at the document in front of him, his voice as indifferent as ever.
“It’s okay.” Xia Li, who had not yet recovered from her shock, spoke unexpectedly briefly.
“That’s great.”
“I will take my leave now.”
After leaving the room, Xia Li stared at the closed door, and there seemed to be a dark red flame burning in her eyes.
“The strongest… huh?”
As if he could sense the determination outside the door, Arima raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Fujikawa Kari.
I’m looking forward to it.
Fifteen (Old Version)
Ahem
Leaning against a corner of the stove wall, Dong Xiang felt numbness and fatigue all over her body, and her heart was filled with boredom.
When will days like this end?
Bang
There was a crisp sound of glass bottles colliding. Dong Xiang raised her head vigilantly, but an unexpected figure caught her eyes.
“I… I didn’t mean to do that. I just accidentally touched two glass bottles…” Xia Li raised his hands in surrender, looking at a loss.
“You idiot, why did you come here?” Dong Xiang frowned her beautiful eyebrows and said impatiently, but after noticing his eyes, her body shrank back and subconsciously covered her injured right arm.
“Tsk.” Xia Li’s eyes narrowed, obviously noticing her little action. “Are you hurt?”
Having said this, he went forward to check without further ado.
“What are you doing?” Dong Xiang pulled back her arm, but she pulled the wound too hard and gasped in pain.
Unexpectedly, Xia Li grabbed her arm again and stared at her with cold eyes. Her violet eyes clearly said: If you dare to pull it back again, you’re finished!
“You bastard!” She glared at Xia Li angrily. When had she ever been threatened? But she kept her arms in place, not trying to struggle free.
Xia Li frowned and tore open her sleeves, revealing her white forearm and the hideous long wound.
“Hey…! You…” Dong Xiang’s face was flushed, and she cursed angrily, “What are you doing!”
Xia Li raised his head, still expressionless, but Dong Xiang, who was familiar with him, clearly felt his anger.
This old man, Mado Wuxu… is really tired of living… It seems I need to have a good talk with him…
When exactly did this start?
Dong Xiang stared blankly at her cuffs, where a small piece of white bandage and half of a beautiful bow were exposed, which clearly showed a hint of tenderness. She was obviously a little confused.
His fingers fell on that patch of white, stroking it gently unconsciously.
When did this start… I no longer have the ability to refuse his concern, and even a faint sense of joy lingers in my heart…
But what he didn’t know was that she was a ghoul…
The wound wrapped in the bandage healed in a short time.
Humans and ghouls…
Is it really possible?
I really am… confused.
“Touka…what are you thinking about?” Yizi’s voice sounded from behind, and Touka turned around quickly. “Ah, it’s okay…”
CCG20 District Branch Building.
“Huh…” After letting out a long breath, Xia Li, who had already walked to the front of the distribution building, calmed down instead. The automatic sensing glass door opened after a slight scratching sound.
Ignoring the countless admiring, amazed, surprised and infatuated looks around her, Xia Li walked towards Zhenhu’s office with a cold face.
Mado Wuxu and Amon were discussing the information of the more powerful ghouls in Area 20. When they noticed Xia Li walking in with a cold face, they stopped their work in surprise.
“Tengchuan, quasi-special class?” Yamen shouted directly.
Promotion to special class was a foregone conclusion, but he was still too young. CCG was worried that he would not be able to command the crowd, so they temporarily made him a quasi-special class. You know, there were not many special class people who could defeat an SS-class in a one-on-one duel.
Tengchuan Xiali is now famous. She has conquered and expelled two SS-level ghouls by herself, and has become the second most powerful person in CCG after Arima Kisho. Moreover, she is a genius. For CCG, cultivating a person with potential that is even greater than Arima is a hundred benefits and no harm.
However, that is ultimately just CCG’s wishful thinking.
Xia Li is not Kaneki, who is so kind and cowardly. He can do his best for his goal, even if he has to give up everything. Unlike Kaneki, he doesn’t even have the right to give up.
Life is a constant stream of choices. For example, becoming an investigator was also his choice, in order to…
“Swish–” A strange sound of metal clashing was heard, and a stream of light purple light flashed across the sharp edge and pointed directly at Mado Wuxu!
“Get your Quinque out.”
The cold and emotionless voice echoed in the small space.
“SS-rank ghoul, a Quinque made from a tiger scorpion, a scorpion tail?” Mado’s eyes widened with excitement, “Interesting!”
The pale yellow whip-like Quinque was also thrown out suddenly, and a faint cold light flashed on the whip blade. Yamen was completely stunned. He really couldn’t understand how it suddenly turned out like this. The two investigators confronted each other.
“That…” This is the timid Yamen.
“Is Mado Ichi-cho going to fight against Tengchuan Juntoku? This is really a rare sight… I must watch it carefully…” said a battle fanatic on the side.
“As expected, Tengchuan Tokujo holding Quinque is the most handsome~” A certain nymphomaniac.
Then, Tengchuan Xiali concentrated his mind and had no distracting thoughts. His brain was working rapidly at this moment.
Although his personal strength has far surpassed that of S-rank Mado Wuxu, but in terms of Quinque’s fighting skills, Mado is obviously much stronger than himself, so it is not so easy to defeat him without revealing his trump card…
Sensing Xia Li’s strong fighting spirit, Mado took the initiative to attack.
If you look at it from the perspective of the special class, you will definitely be surprised. The reason why Mado took the initiative to attack was not because he caught Xia Li’s flaw, but because his momentum was overwhelmed by Xia Li’s momentum. If he didn’t attack again, he would be defeated!
The whip shadow, which was difficult to capture with the naked eye, quickly passed by from above and scratched Xia Li’s arm.
But he suddenly hit nothing, and Mado Wuxu’s pupils suddenly shrank.
“Gone? How fast is that!?”
The next moment after the whip blade was swung in the air, a dangerous breath came from behind. Mado rolled to the side in embarrassment, and the lavender gun-shaped Quinque easily split the solid wooden desk into two.
Sixteen (old version)
Stand up!
There seemed to be fire burning in Zijing Liuli’s eyes, and the sharp tip of the gun was pointed at the old investigator with white hair, “You… pay attention… otherwise, people will die!”
After a pause, Xia Li, who had no respect for her elders’ ideas at all, suddenly exerted force with her legs and swung Quinque out like a mad beast.
“Interesting!” Mado Wuxu’s strength had long reached the quasi-special class, infinitely close to the special class, but because he relied too much on Quinque’s power and was controlled by the rage of revenge, he could never step into the special class.
But his fighting ability is not to be underestimated.
After the two of them fought for several rounds, Xia Li realized that something was wrong. Although Zhenhu was already quite old, his reaction ability was not affected at all. Instead, it became even faster. In the end, it was obvious that something was wrong.
It was as if he could predict his next attack intention!
Once again, he easily dodged Xia Li’s direct attack. Xia Li suddenly did a somersault backwards to avoid a whip shadow, and used Quinque to support the ground. Xia Li looked at Mado Wuxu in front of him with cautious eyes.
No… this was not an extremely quick reaction. Rather than saying that he avoided his attack, it would be better to say that he knew his attack route in advance?
How is this possible!
“Yes!” A hoarse voice sounded, and Zhenhu Wuxu spoke, “Your strength is indeed far beyond mine. It is even very difficult for my naked eyes to detect your attacks, but…” One of his eyes suddenly widened, and the two eyes, one large and one small, looked extremely strange. “Your fighting intention is too obvious! I can guess where you are going to attack without even looking! Have you lost your most basic judgment after killing a few low-level bastards! Special Investigator Tengchuan!”
The lavender hair hung down in front of her forehead, hiding the upper half of Xia Li’s face, making it impossible to see her expression. However, her delicate thin lips were slightly pursed, expressing its owner’s restless mood.
Mado Wuxu… This old guy is really a monster, what a terrible fighting instinct…
“It seems that Mado-sama has more experience! So Mado-sama also has such strength!”
“Yeah, I never thought this elder’s strength would be so terrifying. Even Junto Tengchuan is no match for him…”
Is this really the case?
Mado Wuxu’s eyes suddenly focused, and he clenched the Quinque in his right hand, placed it in front of him, and took a defensive posture.
No… this is not an illusion…
A drop of cold sweat slid down the corner of Zhenhu Wuxu’s brow. This strong feeling was definitely not an illusion… It was like awakening a wild beast…
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the lower-ranking investigators around couldn’t help but stop talking and stare at the scene with surprised eyes.
This was the question everyone was asking. The relaxed look on Madoka’s face suddenly showed as if he was facing a great enemy, which seemed to explain something wordlessly. Everyone’s attention was instantly focused on Tengchuan Xiali.
The next moment, a strong sense of danger came from behind, and Xia Li’s figure in front of him slowly dissipated like a layer of smoke.
Afterimage!!
At this moment, nothing could express the surprise in Wu Xu’s heart. Why did he become a completely different person in an instant?
He frantically pushed the Quinque back to block it. After only a moment’s contact, he could already feel the terrifying force on the tip of the gun. He gave up the Quinque in his hand without hesitation and retreated frantically. He had a strong intuition that if he resisted, he would definitely die!
Sure enough, the next moment, the Quinque he had abandoned was split in half, and the cut was extremely smooth.
The tip of the gun was still stabbing towards his chest with its momentum undiminished. The moment he turned his head, the tip of the gun had reached his chest. He could even feel the wind pressure that was cutting through him and the faint purple-gold light in Xia Li’s eyes.
Finished!
The lower-ranking investigators around had limited eyesight and no one could react. The scene in their eyes at this moment was that Xia Li disappeared from her original position in an instant, and the light yellow whip-shaped Quinque in the sky was split into two and had stopped at the purple-tailed He Quinque on Mado Wuxu’s chest.
The reason for the stop was that a hand appeared on the tip of the gun-shaped Quinque.
Looking upwards along the slender fingers and the not-very-strong arms, I was met with a pair of calm eyes hidden behind them.
“Hiss ” This was the sound of all the lower-level investigators around gasping for air.
“…”The shocked Mado Wuxu was no longer able to make any sound.
“Stop it.” The soft voice revealed strong confidence and a kingly aura.
Everyone’s throat seemed to be choked by something. After a long time, someone finally reacted and started shouting stutteringly.
“Yes… yes, there are Matt and others!”
Gently pushing away the Quinque that was aimed at Mado Wu’s chest, Arima Kisho habitually pushed up his glasses.
“Hehe,” Xia Li smiled slyly, her peripheral vision watching the documents on the desk that was split into two and the USB flash drive that was “coincidentally” split into two.
How could I not help you solve your troubles?
You are so kind, why do you have to help these people who have nothing to do with you…
Knowing Mado Wuxu’s style, he knew exactly why Dongxiang would confront him. It was obviously related to Mado’s recent goal…
I have to say that Xia Li really was lucky this time, as she just happened to solve Dong Xiang’s troubles.
These destroyed things obviously made Zhenhu Wuxu very anxious for a while, and he had no energy to care about the rabbit anymore.
After looking thoughtfully at Xia Li who was smiling like a fox, Arima spoke lightly.
“Tengchuan Junte, come with me.”
Regardless of the lower-ranking investigators who were speculating on why Matt and the others had come to District 20, they turned around and left calmly.
Xia Li curled her lips in dissatisfaction and had to keep up with the horse.
Seventeen (old version)
“Knock… knock… knock…”
The slender index finger with distinct joints tapped lightly on the table, and Xia Li felt a chill on her spine for some reason.
“Junior Special Officer Tengchuan.” After a long silence, Arima Takashi finally spoke, “You should understand, right? Investigators are strictly prohibited from using Quinques against each other…”
“Well… I’ve already said it,” Xia Li said lazily, “I’ve already said it, it’s a competition, a competition.”
“Really?” A silver light flashed across Arima Kisho’s glasses. “It seems that you are still quite energetic… I thought you had just recovered from a serious injury, but I didn’t expect that you could still learn from your colleagues… It seems that this mission must be carried out by you.”
” What?!”
“’24th District Search Team Sharp Knife Team’, Arima Takashi, you think too highly of me…” Xia Li frowned slightly.
He looked at the documents and files on the mahogany table. One corner of the white file was slightly bent, as if it was accidentally folded while being moved. The words “24th District Search Team Sharp Knife Group” could be vaguely seen on the paper.
Chiba Yu, second-class investigator, 16 years old, female. With S-level strength, she once expelled the S-level ghoul, Mahan, and Quinque obtained the scales when he killed Mahan. With her extremely flexible fighting style, she stood out among the investigators of the same age and was selected to join the sharp knife team.
Second-class investigator Ishikawa Isamu, 22 years old, male, has average talent and barely possesses S-level strength, but has assisted senior investigators such as Shinohara Yukinori and Mado Wusuo in completing countless expulsion missions. He has strong analytical and decisive abilities and was selected to join the spearhead team.
Aoki Yumi, third-class investigator, 20 years old, female, has S+ strength, excellent combat ability, has expelled three S-class ghouls, and is the former deputy captain of the 24th District Search Team. In the “final battle”, she suffered a mental breakdown after witnessing the former captain of the 24th District being torn apart by ghouls. Her current condition is unknown.
Xia Li rubbed her temples with a headache.
It’s really troublesome.
“Knock… Knock…” There were two gentle knocks on the half-open door. The sound was neither soft nor loud, which sounded very comfortable. It was obvious that the person was very particular about etiquette in life. Xia Li, who had always been instilled with aristocratic ideas, couldn’t help but relax her tightly frowned brows a little, and felt a little more favorable towards the person outside the door.
“Come in.”
It was not until she heard the clear and magnetic response that Qianye Yu outside the door felt relieved. She thought that the new boss might be an old senior who was difficult to get along with – at least she always thought that people with outstanding abilities tended to have strange tempers.
But then my heart started to lift again.
The new boss…sounds so young, who could it be?
He gently pushed open the half-open door and said, “Senior, I am…” He finally looked up at the new boss who had been the subject of countless speculations before. He was sitting with his legs half-crossed elegantly, a lazy but not slack posture, his delicate eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and his deep purple-gold eyes exuded a fascinating light, bright but not too sharp.
The clear female voice paused here.
“Teng…Tengchuan, special agent!” she shouted out immediately.
He let out a low laugh, and he saw her face clearly as she stared at him.
She is a… well, a very beautiful girl.
She is not the kind of woman who can make people stunning at first sight, but the combination of her facial features and long black hair inexplicably gives people a very beautiful feeling.
Just like a clear spring, it can infect people around you unconsciously.
“What? Are you surprised to see me?” He said teasingly, with a smile almost overflowing from his beautiful eyes.
“No…no, sorry!” She stepped back hurriedly, lowered her eyes, and performed a standard salute, but her heartbeat quickened uncontrollably.
It was unbelievable. She had never thought that their new boss in the spearhead team would be a rising star in CCG, a legendary figure who was almost like Arima II…
“The noble young man, the quasi-god of death” Tengchuan Xiali.
“Oh? Is that so?” Xia Li touched her chin, “When did I get this nickname?”
“Ah…ah! But…how did you know what I was thinking…”
“…” Xia Li raised the corner of her lips helplessly, “You said it yourself.”
“Why!!!!”
It seems that life will not be so boring from now on… Xia Li thought so.

District 24.
Area 24 is a large labyrinth dug by ghouls that is spread all over the underground of Tokyo. According to rumors, a large number of ghouls are lurking in the deepest part of Area 24. CCG has been working hard to explore this mysterious area. According to the information obtained by predecessors, the wall of Area 24 is a “meat wall” made of kagune. Its production principle is similar to that of Quinque, but the production process was developed by the ghouls in Area 24. It is precisely because of this meat wall that the exploration of Area 24 has become difficult. “
“Huh…” Qianye Yu, who finished reading all the information in one breath, couldn’t help but let out a long breath and licked his lips.
After noticing her little action, Xia Li looked at her with a smile until she lowered her head with a blush on her face.
“Have some coffee.” He gently pushed the ceramic cup on the table forward. “Thank you for your hard work. I already understand the general situation.”
“Tengchuan, quasi-special officer.” Ishikawa Yong is a calm and composed young man with a resolute face and a strong body. His short crew cut makes him look very energetic. “You should have understood the specific situation. I am Ishikawa Yong. Please give me your guidance in the future.”
“Please give me your guidance.” Xia Li nodded slightly, her behavior was neither distant nor too intimate, perfect. Ishikawa Yong couldn’t help but think more highly of this young boss.
“Oh right,” Xia Li suddenly seemed to remember something, “I remember there was another member? Where is she?”
Eighteen (old version)
His hands were clenched so tightly that his knuckles had even turned white.
Her dark blue hair was tied behind her ears, she wore a pair of light red round-frame glasses, and her thin cherry lips were almost bitten by herself.
Staring at the tombstone in front of him, Aoki Zhizhi’s face was struggling as he stubbornly held back the tears in his eyes.
“Hira… Youmei is here to see you…”
Almost everyone in the special operations team knew that she suffered a mental breakdown after witnessing her captain being killed by a ghoul in front of them, but almost no one knew her relationship with that heroic captain.
They were originally a happy couple.
The cool breeze blew gently, and the hair on my forehead swayed slightly.
That man…
It’s always like this…
“Youmei…” Zhu looked into her eyes quietly, “Go with Ishikawa and be obedient.”
No She said tremblingly. I don t want to be cut off from the rear a future without the Pillars
“Why are you still so willful?” Zhu felt a headache, “Listen to me for once… ok?”
“Captain,” Ishikawa Yong muttered, “Shouldn’t it be a reasonable decision for me, the weakest one, to cover the rear and buy time… Why…” This man, who was always known for his calmness and rationality, had tears in his eyes for the first time, “This doesn’t make sense…”
“Listen to me,” Zhu once again turned his head and looked at Ishikawa Yong, “I am the strongest and I will stay behind to cover your retreat. Not to mention that the more time I can delay your retreat, the greater the chance of survival, right?”
“But…!” Ishikawa Yong wanted to say something, but was stopped by Zhu with a gesture, “Listen to me, we don’t have much time.”
He turned back again, “… Youmei…” He opened his arms and hugged her tightly, gently stretched out his right hand, and gently stroked the messy hair on her forehead. “…”
He wanted to say something, but his peripheral vision caught sight of Ishikawa’s horrified expression.
“Danger!…” he shouted.
The sharp pain in his lower back made his whole body tense up.
Here we come!
That premonition… the extremely terrifying threat –
This was also the reason why he insisted on staying behind to cover the retreat.
The splattering blood even splashed on the face of Ishikawa Isamu who was several meters away from him.
He only had time to push Aoki Yumi out of his arms, and the next moment he felt his body lighten, and then the world in front of him began to spin.
I heard Ishikawa Isamu’s crazy shouting.
No way… How could someone as calm as Ishikawa be like this…? What on earth happened?
When the view turned, I saw Aoki Yumi, who was covering her mouth and trembling all over.
The world then turned red…
Is it…my blood?
So warm…
The last image was of my own body torn into pieces…
“Captain…!!!” Ishikawa Isamu had gone crazy. He picked up the Quinque in his hand and rushed towards the terrifying black shadow without caring about anything.
“You… bastard!!!”
“This is a lie… This is a lie…” Aoki covered his face in despair. In his ears was Ishikawa’s roar and the sound of Quinque colliding with an unknown kagune. “This can’t be true…”
She spread out her hands, which were full of dark red color.
“ah–!!!!”
She screamed hysterically.
She had hoped that this was just a terrible nightmare, and that everything would return to square one after she woke up. Zhu would still smile and hand her breakfast, look at her with gentle eyes, and say good morning to her in the office every morning… Unfortunately, reality is always so cruel. War is like this, and death is just too common… – Aoki Yumi
She still stared silently at the uneven stone tablet, but the neatly written name on it hurt her eyes.
Quasi-special investigator, Zhu.
Yes.
His name is Zhu.
He was the eldest son of a large family with a bright and beautiful future, but because of her he resolutely abandoned everything that belonged to him and participated in this dangerous and terrible war with no tomorrow.
When the family elders learned that he was going to the front, they went crazy.
“Why do you want to go to such a dangerous place?” Zhu smiled disdainfully in front of the elders, “Because there is Meiyou? You stubborn old fogies will never understand why our burning hearts are beating!”
In this society where family background and surname are almost the mainstay, he almost gave up his surname and everything he had without hesitation, just to stay by her side.
Are you stupid?
He had asked himself this question more than once, but he filled in the column-shaped answer himself.
How can he not be stupid~! What surname should Youmei take if she marries him in the future? ! ! !
After getting the answer, Aoki Yumi couldn’t hold back her tears at all.
Are you kidding me?
This idiot…
He didn’t have any sweet words, and there were no vows of eternal love between them. He only described everything with his actions.
In his eyes, he is everything
Unfortunately, cruel fate will never leave any room for people.
Tengchuan Xiali stood quietly behind the aisle of the cemetery.
This cemetery is reserved for all the soldiers who died in CCG.
Qianye Yu stood behind Xia Li, looking at the figure standing in front of the monument in the distance, feeling a pang of pain in his chest.
“Let’s go.” After a long silence, Xia Li turned around and strode away.
Don’t believe all rumors… Tengchuan Xiali’s lips curled up in an intriguing arc. This woman is probably not the kind of person who will collapse…
Those idiots who spread rumors will soon be slapped in the face by themselves.
“Hey, captain?” Qianye Yu turned around too hastily and almost fell down. “Shouldn’t we go call Senior Aoki?”
Xia Li paused, and said something meaningful.
She will come.
Definitely.
Nineteen (old version)
“The power that erupts from your anger… is this all that it is?”
“How is this possible…” Ishikawa Isamu looked at the Quinque in his hand that was broken into two pieces in shock.
Why… I hit it with all my strength… and it turned out that my Quinque was broken…
A whip-like kick was launched from under the black cloak, and Ishikawa Isamu vomited blood and flew backwards, hitting the wall hard.
“Oh no…” Ishikawa Yong struggled to stand up with the help of the wall. He didn’t even have time to wipe the blood from his mouth before he was suddenly stepped on the lower abdomen.
“Puff ” A large mouthful of blood spurted out, and the wall behind him, which was already a little damaged, instantly formed fine cracks like a spider web.
He just felt like his body was churning and his internal organs were almost about to be vomited out.
But that s not even the worst.
What’s worse is that the person under the cloak revealed half of his body, which was covered with a layer of black kagune.
layer?!
Ishikawa Yong’s expression suddenly became desperate. The guy in front of him looked like a Hezhe?
It s terrible
Ishikawa Isamu smiled bitterly.
No wonder his Quinque chopped fiercely on the opponent but was broken into two pieces instead.
It turns out that the other party is a Hezhe.
Moreover, ordinary S-class Hercules might not be able to achieve this level…
SS-level Hercules.
After the guess, his heart sank.
There is no chance of survival!
“I’m so lucky…” Even though he was being stepped on, he couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
District 24 is indeed a scary place… This is just the middle area of ??District 24…
It is hard to imagine what a terrible hell this place is deep inside…
He turned his head and looked into the deep darkness in the distance.
What a pity… Although I knew this day would come, I still…
With a determined face full of reluctance, Ishikawa Isamu closed his eyes and waited for death.
After a long time, the imagined pain did not come, and the foot that was stepping on his body was moved away instead. He opened his eyes in surprise.
“What happened? I’m still alive?”
The enemy in front of him was covering his head, as if he was enduring some intense pain. His body kept shaking, and low roars kept coming out of his throat, like a dying beast.
Ishikawa Isamu froze in place, not daring to even breathe.
He slid down the wall tremblingly, and stood up with difficulty. He found that the ghoul in front of him was still motionless, and his hands covering his temples were shaking constantly.
He hurriedly limped to Aoki Youmei’s side, dragging her away from the scene, and occasionally looking back in shock.
The ghoul didn’t even look at them.
He paused and held Aoki’s graceful hands for a moment.
At this moment he had a crazy idea in his mind!
Pick up Aoki Yumi’s Quinque!
Go kill that guy!
However, after hesitating for a while, his mind told him that doing so might lead to some terrible consequences…
Fortunately he didn’t do that.
Two hours later, the black cloak was suddenly torn apart, and a terrifying monster emerged from under the cloak.
Looking at its three sharp black and red claws, it laughed grimly.
“Finally… I finally became a complete He-Killer!”
It turned its head and looked at Ishikawa Isamu with its pure black eyes without eyeballs.
“You can go die now…annoying little bug!”
Ishikawa Yong screamed and stood up from the bed.
“Is this a dream…” He looked at his palms, cold sweat breaking out.
Fortunately, I didn’t attack the monster at that time…
He held his forehead and glanced at the alarm clock beside him.
Then the expression on his face froze.
“Ahhhh, we’re going to be late!” Ishikawa Isamu hurriedly jumped off the bed, and a loud whistle echoed throughout the Sharp Knife Camp.
“So, the guy you mentioned who killed your former captain might be a complete Hercule above SS level?”
Xia Li’s expression was very solemn.
If it’s that kind of guy, it might be a bit troublesome to deal with him…
He pondered.
“If…if I had the power…” A trace of sadness flashed in Ishikawa Yong’s eyes. He clenched his fists tightly, and his nails dug deeply into the flesh.
Qianye Yu, who was not among the group that went deep last time, didn’t understand the situation, but she obviously knew what a complete Heijie above SS was, and her breathing became heavy.
Is this… our enemy?
She subconsciously looked at Tengchuan Xiali, the pillar of their future. She could feel the pressure in his heart.
“Report!” There was a sudden knock on the door, and then the wooden door was pushed open, and a graceful figure appeared in front of everyone.
“The deputy captain of the spearhead team is here to report! Requesting to return to the team!”
When she found out that her new boss was Tengchuan Xia Li, her eyes suddenly lit up, but it was fleeting and was keenly caught by Xia Li.
“Hello, welcome back.” You are back as expected.
Tengchuan Xiali smiled very gently, but there was a gleam of light in her eyes.
“yes!”
After a brief response, she quickly took a seat in the last empty seat.
At this point, all members of the 24th District Exploration Team s spearhead team have officially arrived!
“It seems that they have all met each other.” Marute still had his usual playful smile on his face.
“Yeah.” Arima’s expression was as cold as ever.
“Wu Xu died in the battle in District 20…” Marute said with a heavy heart, “The future still has to be handed over to these young people…”
“Maybe…” Arima Takashi raised his eyes.
“Is it difficult for you to appoint Juntoku Tengawa this time? You should have been the one to lead this expedition.” Marute was a little worried, “He is still too young. CCG can’t afford to lose a genius like him now…”
The implication is, aren’t there many geniuses who have died young? Aren’t you taking too much of a risk?
Tengchuan Xiali’s purple-gold eyes, which seemed to be burning with fighting spirit, vaguely appeared in front of him.
“No.” Arima Takashi shook his head, “Genius, always escape and fight.”
Besides, he won’t.
Isn t it?
Tengchuan Xiali.
Twenty (old version)
Gently placing the coffee cup on the solid wooden desk, Arima Takashi frowned slightly.
The door opened and Xia Li strode in.
You re here.
“kindness.”
He was not at all surprised at Xia Li’s arrival, as if he had known he was coming.
“I already know why you’re here.” He pushed the coffee cup in front of him towards Xia Li with his fingertips, “Sit down.”
I even burned two cups of coffee…
Xia Li raised her eyebrows helplessly, pulled out a chair and sat down.
No one knew what they talked about in this short half a minute.
Their “heart-to-heart talk” was in full swing, and the office of the spearhead team seemed to be bustling with activity.
“They said there would be a meeting today…but the person in charge hasn’t shown up yet. What’s going on?” Qianye Yu, who was leaning against the wall, pouted and sulked.
Aoki Yumi hugged her chest and looked out the window in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking about.
“Well… if it’s him, there must be some reason why he had to delay…” Shi Chuanyong sat on the chair, wiping a light blue sword-shaped Quinque with gentle eyes.
His previous Quinque was destroyed in the battle, but this time his application to the headquarters was successful and he got an S-class Quinque, which he was now playing with fondly.
“…” Qianye Yu curled his lips in dissatisfaction.
“I’m sorry I’m late.”
Xia Li finally arrived when Qianye could no longer hold back.
“Captain! Why are you so slow!!!” she blurted out angrily.
“…” Ishikawa Isamu and Aoki Yumi wanted to say something, but suddenly they froze and couldn’t close their mouths.
“This tone…” It’s just like the coquettishness between lovers!
Suddenly realizing that there was something wrong with his tone, Qianye even wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into. The atmosphere was extremely awkward.
Looking at the girl in front of her whose head was almost smoking with some amusement, Xia Li smiled mischievously, and the anger she felt towards Arima disappeared instantly.
“Haha,” he laughed, “It’s indeed my problem. Sorry to have kept you waiting. Let’s start the meeting now!”
With your strength, you may be able to escape unscathed, but your lovely subordinates may not be able to do so…
Arima Takamasa’s playful expression and words flashed through his mind.
This guy…what…
Xia Li gritted her teeth fiercely.
What on earth is this guy thinking about…
Arima Takasho.
“Who knows.” Adjusting his glasses, Arima’s eyes were as deep as a pool of autumn water.
One general’s success is the result of the sacrifice of thousands of soldiers…
Are those dry bones only those of the enemy?
He looked thoughtfully at the little bit of brown liquid remaining in the coffee cup, which was still swirling unwillingly at the bottom of the cup.
There is a horse, just wait.
I won’t let that happen!
Tengchuan Xiali’s purple-gold eyes loomed in his mind.
The corners of his mouth curved up.
I hope you can create miracles…
He stood up and picked up the two empty coffee cups.
“Is this the outer terrain of Area 24?” Xia Li stopped.
“Yes.” The forced march did not affect Ishikawa Yong’s judgment. He simply glanced at the nearby area and made a decision, “This is an exit to the northwest of the underground entrance…”
Chiba Yu and Aoki Yumi, who were less physically fit, also fell behind the two men, their chests heaving heavily.
“I’ve already told you…” Xia Li sighed helplessly, “You guys save some energy. It doesn’t matter if you can’t catch up in a short time…”
The distance between the front and the back is not far, which is a very reasonable lineup. It can widen the front and back vision to the widest. The 22-grouping is relatively safe and not easy to be attacked.
“Captain…” Qingmu said solemnly, “Something seems to be wrong…”
“Yeah…” Even Ishikawa Isamu agreed, “Even if this is just the outer layer, it’s impossible not to encounter a single ghoul…”
“Indeed, District 24 is a mysterious area that is almost entirely populated by ghouls, and it’s even a mysterious small society… It’s really strange that there is not a single small fry, isn’t it… The gentleman behind the slope?” Tengchuan Xiali sighed and said aloud.
I was originally planning to wait for him to jump out by himself… but it looks like that plan has failed.
“We’ve been discovered…” A dark and hoarse voice sounded, and a strange guy wearing a clown mask jumped out from the slope and landed steadily in front of Xia Li and others.
“Nice to meet you. Let me introduce myself…” He shook his head, “You can call me…Ghost~”
The sweet ending tone rises. If it was a woman’s voice, it would probably make people let down their guard unconsciously. But if it was a man’s voice… I’m afraid it wouldn’t be so beautiful.
Tengchuan Xiali was about to get goose bumps all over her body.
“You disgusting guy… who are you?” Qianye Yu pulled out Quinque with disgust and stared at the guy of unknown origin in front of him with vigilance.
“Little Miss~ It’s not okay for a girl to be so rude~”
“Chiba!” Aoki Yumi shouted, pushed Chiba Yu’s body away, and chopped Quinque forward.
“take off clothes–“
After a crisp sound, sparks burst out in the air.
This guy! What an amazing speed! Is he Yuhe’s ghoul?
Qianye’s pupils shook in shock.
If Aoki-senpai hadn’t reacted quickly and pushed me away, I would have been hit!
What was the cause of that momentary distraction just now…?
Anyone who dares to follow the four-man team of the spearhead group is either extremely powerful and has a trump card to protect himself, or he is a fool!
However, judging from the trembling hands of Aoki Yumi as she held the Quinque, it was obviously not the latter!
“Interesting!” Xia Li was slightly interested. “Qingmu, step back.” He walked forward slowly, and his aura became stronger with every step. “This guy is not someone you can handle…”
He looked at the “clown” in front of him who had already taken two steps back and was overwhelmed by his momentum, and smiled faintly, “Leave this guy… to me.”
Twenty-one (old version)
(Please urge me to update~ I can eat it during the National Day holiday… The following is the main text.)
Ahh
My God, when did such a scary guy appear in CCG?
Still so young… I was careless…
The clown knelt on one knee, unable to suppress his look of horror.
“Is Yuhe’s ghoul… Judging from his speed and strength, he should be above S but below SS…” Xia Li muttered to himself and fired a shot casually. The “ghost” bent his body backwards desperately, almost breaking it in two, and only then was he able to barely avoid most of the attacks. However, the bullet mark still scratched his shoulder, taking away a large piece of flesh and blood in an instant, and the ground was instantly covered with his blood.
“SS-‘s Yuhe ghoul?”
He moved forward as if taking a leisurely stroll in the garden, but his speed made the ghost feel a little chilled.
“What kind of monster is this!”
SS-?
Tengchuan Quasi-Special Class… The title of the noble young master Quasi-Death God is not for nothing… What a powerful force –
The ghoul who was still shouting just now was beaten without any chance to fight back…
Out of reach…
The distance from that adult.
His longing eyes fell on the not-so-tall figure, and he was reluctant to look away for even a moment.
Xia Li was not aware of the complicated feelings of the people behind him. He just looked at the enemy in front of him and sneered.
“Who was the person who was so arrogant just now…” He raised his eyebrows slightly, “What are you trying to do by lying on the ground pretending to be dead now?”
“You…don’t get too carried away…”
The guy lying on the ground struggled to stand up and clenched his fists.
I still have one more thing left…
Xia Li looked at him carefully. After the guy in front of her stood up, a faint sense of danger came from him…
Although there were few of them and they probably posed no threat to him, he was always cautious and began to carefully observe the actions of the guy in front of him.
SS-‘s strength shouldn’t have posed a threat to him, but he did.
Then there are only two possibilities.
One is that there is someone else nearby… that person is so powerful that he thinks he can get away…
The second is that there is an even more terrifying power hidden in his own body…
However, he prefers the former.
He turned around, with his back to the “ghost” on the ground, and took a defensive posture.
If it is the former, then since he has been hiding until now without revealing any aura, he must be a terrifying guy with strength similar to or even greater than mine…
Since when did SS-class cars become so popular?
If the special forces in CCG knew about this, they would probably find it unbelievable…
Xia Li smiled bitterly.
It seemed that his worst guess was indeed true.
A figure wrapped in black slowly walked out from the distance.
“Ah…” Xia Li said nonchalantly, but his tense body betrayed him. “I really caught an unexpected big fish…”
“Ah… Mr. Tengchuan.” The man in front of him had his entire face buried under the clown mask, and his voice was an extremely mellow male voice, “Although I don’t like the person lying on the ground very much, I have to ensure his life safety…” He nodded slightly, and the earrings on his ears reflected a somewhat cold light.
Seeing that Xia Li in front of him had no intention of wavering, he sighed, “It’s really not my intention to fight with you…”
Before he finished his words, a fierce attack from a hand had already arrived, almost touching Xia Li’s throat.
Xia Li took a seemingly leisurely step back, but his entire body suddenly retreated several meters. He raised Quinque and danced with his gun gracefully, “I was wondering why that clown mask looked so familiar. It turned out to be the clown organization that was wiped out by Arima in Area 3…”
“Mr. Fujikawa… I’m really troubled by what you said…”
Hey, hey, two adults The ghost on the ground seemed to be unable to bear the loneliness and couldn t help but speak, Don t ignore the people lying on the ground just start chatting!!!
Yu He flashed, and a sharp feather thorn attacked Xia Li’s back.
At the same time, the man wearing a clown mask in front of him also rushed towards Xia Li at an extremely fast speed.
One against two!
His posture was still as elegant as ever. It was clearly a dangerous battle, but he turned it into a gorgeous dance.
Waltz of Death!
He leaned down slightly and easily dodged a straight punch from the newcomer, then used the butt of the Quinque to knock the man back, then spun the weapon around and swung it behind him, knocking all of the “ghost’s” feathers off his crotch.
There was a terrifying power on the tip of the gun, and the precision of each strike made the ghost flustered.
“It seems that you didn’t use your full strength… What are you hiding if you don’t even use your kagune?”
Xia Li spoke with great interest, but her hands never stopped. While fending off his attacks, she also occasionally hit the “ghost” once or twice, forcing him to retreat.
It seems like we have to release some explosive news…
A purple-gold light suddenly appeared in Xia Li’s eyes!
The next moment, his strength and speed were completely improved to a higher level. With a swift blow that completely took away other people’s reaction time, he shattered half of the mask of the person in front of him.
There seems to be a tattoo on the neck that was accidentally exposed?
After seeing the content clearly, Xia Li was stunned.
In that brief second of distraction, the guy in front of her seemed to have seized the opportunity and passed by Xia Li’s defense line at a terrifying speed.
“Oops!”
The next moment, the man and the ghost had already escaped far away.
Xia Li turned around and was about to chase after him, but her steps suddenly stopped.
That guy’s speed when he broke through my defense just now…
Has it reached SSS level?
After just a brief moment of hesitation, Xia Li realized that he could not catch up with them.
It was obviously impossible for him to abandon his troops and pursue…
He closed his eyes and the tattoo he had just seen appeared in his mind.
“necpossumtecumvivere,necsinete.”
(I can’t live with you, I can’t live without you)
Twenty-two (old version)
The setting sun lazily lay on the campus lawn, and a beautiful girl sat quietly on the bluestone chair.
The light reflected by the blue-purple eyes under the setting sun was cool and soft. The slender hands tightly grasped a thin bag strap, thinking about something.
It is like a beautiful painting that makes people stop and admire it.
This beautiful picture was suddenly interrupted by a person.
“Kirishima… Touka?” The visitor seemed not very familiar with the syllables of this name, and spoke a little haltingly, “Can you please come with me?”
“?” Dong Xiang looked at the girl in front of her with some confusion. The long brown hair and pretty face… made her feel inexplicably familiar.
Have you seen it somewhere?
After following this strange girl for a while, Dongxiang felt something was wrong.
Because they walked farther and farther away, they almost reached a place where there were no people.
She suddenly became alert, and the alarm bells in her heart kept ringing.
“Who are you? Why did you bring me here?” Dong Xiang subconsciously took a defensive posture and looked at the girl in front of her cautiously.
“I…my name…is not something you can understand…but, but, you can call me…Number Four!” It seemed that it was not that he couldn’t pronounce Dong Xiang’s name clearly before, but that she spoke a little haltingly, as if…she hadn’t spoken for a long time.
“Please…be good and…come with me…”
Dong Xiang was a little annoyed, “Who are you? Why “
The next words were stuck in her mouth, and four huge scales appeared in front of her.
The dragon has a reverse scale, anyone who touches it will be killed.
This was the only thought in Tengchuan Xiali’s mind at this moment.
Ever since I came back from District 24 and reported the news about the “clown” in District 23 at the special meeting, I received the “standby” order and have been wandering at the entrance of District 24 for several days.
They never received the order to “keep moving forward” and could only stay at the entrance.
But this day seemed different.
After expelling two more trash, he received a letter.
In fact, he deeply regretted not hitting that bastard a few more times.
“From Special Investigator Tengchuan:
At your invitation, we have invited your good friend from high school, Touka Kirishima, to come and reminisce with you.
Please don t come to District 24 Yuwen Gorge tonight to chat.
A clown’s head was left at the signature.
These bastards…
Anger burned fiercely in those beautiful violet eyes, and the hands holding the letter paper turned pale.
“Captain?” Ishikawa Yong, who was passing by, opened Xia Li’s tent and looked at Xia Li’s angry expression with some surprise.
“Hey… Ishikawa,” Xia Li’s voice was filled with suppressed anger, “Do you know… Yuwen Gorge?”
That night.
“Clap, clap, clap…” The sound of applause, neither light nor heavy, echoed in the silent canyon.
Xia Li stopped and no expression could be seen on her cold face, but her right hand holding the box tightened.
Inside was his Quinque
“Scorpion Tail” 2/1.
In an instant, four figures appeared beside Xia Li.
Ah, ah, ah Xia Li clenched her teeth, It really is you clowns.
You clown, you actually dare to appear in front of me…
Xia Li sneered disdainfully, don t you know that I m very angry now
It can kill people!
Xia Li looked around at the four people with a fierce look in his eyes. They all stepped back subconsciously and no one dared to look at him.
“Prepare for my wrath…” Xia Li pulled out the Quinque and held it upright in front of her.
“Captain…” A familiar voice suddenly appeared behind him, and a sword-shaped Quinque instantly repelled a member of the Joker Organization, “Violating orders… How could you leave us to bear it all alone?” Ishikawa Isamu’s steady body appeared behind him.
That s right! *2
Two girls spoke in crisp voices at the same time, and Chiba Yu and Aoki Yumi also landed at the same time.
“As a captain, how can you abandon your teammates and run to such a dangerous place alone!!!!”*3
Xia Li twitched the corner of her mouth.
What a group of cute and unexpectedly stupid subordinates…
That’s fine.
Then… let’s fight together!
He had asked Ishikawa about his location, and it was clear that they should know his whereabouts, and they did follow his footsteps…
At this moment, his faith became firm in his heart.
No matter what happens!
We must protect these comrades!
absolute!
But in the next moment, he wavered.
“boom–!!!!!!!!”
This terrible roar was almost the only sound left between heaven and earth.
The huge body with terrifying momentum landed in front of the four people, and the huge impact instantly pushed the four people away.
Shocking smoke and dust rose up, and the four half-dead Joker members on the ground lost their breath instantly.
In less than half a breath of time, four Clown Organization cadres with strength above S-level were killed!
“Ah – now things are getting serious…”
Xia Li spoke nonchalantly under the impact, but stretched her body as far as she could, trying to block more impact for the three people behind her.
When the smoke and dust cleared, a terrifying figure appeared in front of the four people.
“This is… what a horrible monster!!” The three of them froze instantly.
What appeared before them was a terrifying figure several meters tall, just like a prehistoric monster…
The single eye, which was almost as big as a basketball, turned and looked at the four people.
There was a chill behind the four of them without any hesitation.
It felt like being stared at by a poisonous snake. Qianye Yu, who had a slightly poor psychological endurance, was already sweating coldly.
That s right
This guy is the CCG’s nightmare, the strongest ghoul known…
One-eyed owl, come on!
Ah… what a troublesome opponent…
Bang–
There was a sudden loud noise and Xia Li took two steps back, almost bumping into Ishikawa Yong. He wiped a trace of blood from the corner of his mouth.
“Listen carefully…” He looked at the slightly cracked “Tiger Scorpion” 2/1, his eyes lit up with a purple-gold light, and he had obviously activated his trump card again – the combat state, as he called it, “While I’m fighting him… stay away, okay?”
He shook his numb hands and jumped up!
Tengchuan Xiali.VS. One-eyed Owl! ! ! !
Twenty-three (old version)
“Presented “
With a clear sound of collision, the Tiger Scorpion 2/1 finally completed its mission and shattered to the ground.
“Hehe ” Under the huge kagune mask, Owl laughed strangely and sharply. The dark purple Quinque fragments on the ground were still reflecting a faint fluorescence unwillingly, as if they were still crying out about something.
For an investigator who has lost his weapon, he is at most a stronger human being.
Owl thought so. After all, the guy in front of her was obviously not a pervert like Arima Takamasa. However, even if it was Arima Takamasa, he probably wouldn’t be able to do anything to her without using Quinque, so she became fearless.
Tengchuan Xia Li lowered his head, his drooping hair obscuring his expression. His huge single eye was staring with interest at the guy in front of him, who was too small in both strength and size compared to her. Two streams of white air spurted out of his nostrils.
After a moment of silence, Xia Li suddenly raised her head.
However, the expression on his face made Xiao a little surprised.
Ah, ah, ah He smiled bitterly, but his eyes lit up and his face became lively. The few shallow scratches on his cheeks disappeared slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye. I didn t expect that I would have to let you perform so early
“Swoosh–” The Quinque box was suddenly opened, revealing the second layer underneath.
Xia Li reached in her hand, with a smile on her face, and twitched suddenly.
“Buzz !!!!!!!” The loud sound of swords echoed all around.
Tiger Scorpion 2/2!
The long sword was made of the SS-level kagune of the Tiger Scorpion. It was only two fingers thick, but had a blade that was nearly two meters long. The entire sword was in a smooth streamlined shape, but the grooves on the sword proved that this sword was not just gorgeous
Such a psychic sword !
The sword’s edge trembled restlessly, as if craving for blood.
Xia Li made a sword flower, and a cold color flashed before his eyes, and a hint of smile appeared in his eyes.
“One-eyed…Owl,” the short name lingered on his lips, carrying with it some inexplicable emotions that he himself did not understand, “Let us begin…”
Antique coffee house.
The store was unexpectedly quiet today, with not a single customer.
Only Kaneki and Takenaka were quietly tidying up the shop
Kaneki, who was washing the coffee cup, looked around with some confusion, as if he was very puzzled by the unexpected desertedness of the store.
“Well… this is a very normal thing.” Inadvertently noticing Kaneki’s look around the store, Takenaka explained, “Recently, Hakubato has increased the intensity of searches in the 20th area. The peace-loving ghouls must be staying at home and not daring to come out…”
“I see…” Kaneki’s tone sounded a little relieved.
“Ding Ling “
As soon as Takenaka finished speaking, the door was suddenly pushed open.
A burly man walked in with two strong men.
“…” Takenaka Shoji was a little annoyed that he was slapped in the face right after he said that there might not be many customers today. He stared at the three people in front of him with a bad look.
“Welcome.” Kaneki greeted politely.
Unexpectedly, the visitor asked directly, “Is the store manager here?”
“Ah…” Kaneki’s timid reaction obviously made the visitor a little unhappy. The hot-tempered Wanzhang grabbed Kaneki’s collar directly, pulled him up fiercely, and almost dragged him out of the counter, “I asked you if the manager is here!”
“Sorry, the manager is not here right now…”
“So where did he go?” he said, shaking the hand that was holding Kaneki’s collar.
Wanzhang Shuyi had a bad temper, and Takenaka Shoji was obviously not someone who could be easily dealt with. “Hey, what are you doing when you come in? If you have something to say, at least order a cup of coffee first!”
What!!!! Wanzhang Shuyi s expression was somewhat ferocious.
“Well…if you need help from the store manager…” Kaneki sat down and quietly looked at Manzhang who looked a little weird holding his coffee.
Wanzhang Shuyi took a sip of coffee and said, “Forget it, I also have something to ask you two.” He paused, and Takenaka Shoji snorted coldly.
“Do you…know Kamishiro Rize?”
“Why!!!”
“My name is Manjo Shuichi, and I’m from District 11. Ms. Rize and I are old acquaintances in District 11,” he glanced at Kaneki, “before she left District 11, she seemed to be interested in this store.”
When he said this, he suddenly froze, then suddenly put his face in front of Kaneki and sniffed it carefully.
Suddenly irritable.
He grabbed Kaneki’s collar again like a mad bull, “Why!… Why do you smell like Miss Rikyo!!!”
Oh no!
As soon as he sniffed Kaneki, Kaneki knew that something bad was going to happen, and sure enough.
“Hey, stop acting wild in this store!” Takenaka Shoji slammed the table and stood up, looking like he was going to start a fight if they disagreed.
Unexpectedly, Wanzhang looked shocked and wilted at this moment, “As a man…”
The atmosphere was oddly frozen.
“You, you are Miss Rise’s man!!!”
Unable to bear it any longer, Takenaka finally took action. He suddenly chopped him on the head with a knife, knocking him unconscious.
“…” Takenaka looked at his palm in surprise.
God have mercy on him, he just wanted to hit him so that he would let go of Kaneki, but he didn’t expect that he would knock him unconscious directly…
He stared blankly at the huge body that had fallen to the ground. After a long while, he said in a sullen tone, “… so weak.”
“I’m sorry, my boss has caused you trouble…”
A subordinate behind him said to Takenaka apologetically, “Our boss…”
The other person held his forehead helplessly.
“As expected… I knew it would turn out like this…”
Takenaka and Kaneki looked at the burly man on the ground and suddenly began to have a headache.
So, what is going on with this unclear and inexplicable thing?
Twenty-four (old version)
“Hey…Xiao Li,” the girl smiled lightly, revealing a not-so-obvious dimple, “Are you awake?”
“!” He raised his eyebrows in surprise and turned his head to look around. “Where is this?…”
“This is the izakaya in District 11~” The girl shook her head playfully and blinked at him, looking extremely charming.
This scene seemed familiar to Xia Li.
“District 11…?”
Mission…District 24…Ishikawa Isamu…Chiba Yu, the clown…Touka!
His eyes suddenly widened.
One-eyed owl!
How terrible…
He looked at his palms with lingering fear.
Really… I almost died…
The battle lasted for a long time.
Where the memory was interrupted, in a fierce battle, after he changed to Tiger Scorpion 2/2, his attack power was much stronger, and he could even barely break the defense…
Facing the CCG’s known “strongest ghoul”, the one-eyed king, Owl, it must be very difficult to break through his defense…
But it was just a break in the defense.
The attack that could inflict damage to the monster caused it to go berserk…
Then he was exhausted from dealing with Xiao’s attacks… like a small boat bobbing in a tsunami, he could only barely hold on in the face of that natural disaster-level combat power…
Until I collapsed from exhaustion…
That’s all the memory left.
As for what happened after he fainted and how he ended up in this place, he had no idea.
But I’m lucky to be alive…
Turning his eyes, he saw his Quinque box lying quietly on the ground next to him.
It seems that Quinque is still intact, so if something happens, at least he will not be powerless to resist…
He felt relieved a little.
“…Hey!” Xia Li suddenly felt someone pulling her face. She came to her senses abruptly and saw a magnified face of a girl in front of her.
“What are you doing! You’re daydreaming as soon as you wake up, and I don’t know what you’re talking to yourself. I saved you!” The girl’s soft and coquettish voice suddenly came close to his ear, making his ears buzz.
Tsk!
Xia Li’s eyes turned cold and a hint of anger flashed across her face.
He really hates being pinched on the face…
Very annoying?
So it seems like someone always wanted to pinch his face in the past?
He immediately fell into deep thought again.
The girl was unhappy now.
It took a lot of effort to get him back to his senses, but now he’s daydreaming again!
So the hands kneading his face became harder again, even making his face a little red.
Brought back to his senses by the pain, he raised his head angrily and slammed his forehead into the girl’s chin.
Hmm
“ah–“
Two muffled groans sounded at the same time.
“What are you doing? It hurts!”
The girl covered her chin in anger, looking at the man in front of her with tears in her eyes. Her voice was a little unclear because she bit her tongue. “Why did you raise your head suddenly…”
As he said this, he took off his glasses and began to wipe his tears.
My heart suddenly stopped.
So familiar…
This girl…
Isn’t it just…
What greeted Fangcun and Sifang was a messy coffee shop.
The ground was covered with bloodstains… and broken glass, as well as tables, chairs and furniture scattered all over the floor.
They watched all this in silence… and at the end of the corridor…
The fallen body.
Takenaka…Shoji.
His collar was a little messy, and his neat coffee shop waiter’s uniform was stained with blood. The fatal thing was a huge penetrating wound, and you could almost see the floor below through his back.
He was lying on the floor at the end of the corridor.
There was still a hint of unwillingness in his gray and dim eyes. He held up his bent arm in a curled posture, and his right hand with half of its fingers broken was still stretched forward, as if trying to hold on to something.
The body has already turned cold and lost its temperature.
Sifang took off his leather coat, threw it on the back of the chair next to him, and squatted down.
She placed her hand on Takenaka’s forehead and slowly closed his eyes.
There was no sign of Kaneki among the mess of antiques, but there was a note on the counter with only two words on it.
bronze.
Such ugly handwriting was obviously left by Wanzhang Shuyi.
Fangcun crumpled the note and held it in his palm, a complex and cold light flashing in his squinting eyes.
What exactly do you want to do?
Bronze Tree…
Sifang stood quietly behind him.
After receiving Fangcun’s eye signal, he turned around and left decisively.
Obviously, after being with Fangcun for such a long time, he already clearly understood what Fangcun wanted to express with every look and gesture.
“Demon Ape, Doberman, it seems that we have been gone for too long, so those guys don’t take us seriously anymore…” Sifang’s face was cold and it was hard to guess what he was thinking, but his clenched fists clearly told everyone, “I am very angry.”
From Dong Xiang s disappearance to the attack on Gu Dong this time, it is not difficult to see that this was probably all premeditated.
What on earth are these guys thinking?
CCG.
Marute and others are holding a meeting on the subjugation mission for Area 11, and are very puzzled by the recent unusual activity of the Bronze Tree.
At least, the fact that an entire district was taken over by a group of ghouls… is really unbelievable.
Are these guys really planning to start a war?
Bronze, Antique, CCG, and that unknown clown organization, Tokyo is in turmoil, and anyone with insight should understand.
Soon, something big is going to happen.
Twenty-five (old version)
“Bang !”
The wall trembled violently, and Ishikawa Yong stared at the wall with a ferocious face.
Damn it, damn it!
His teeth were grinding as he pounded his fist against the wall again.
Bang bang bang
In the silent space, only the dull knocking sounds continued to echo. Aoki Yumi and Chiba Yu stood silently behind him.
It s not that they didn t see his bloody fingers and palms, they knew that he needed to vent at this moment.
They believe that this calm man knows his limits.
The earth-shattering noise inside had not stopped, indicating that the man’s battle was not over yet.
However, as subordinates, they could only pray outside in such a cowardly way…
Pray that their boss can return safely…
The opponent is the strongest ghoul known to man, the nightmare of CCG, the one-eyed owl.
Ishikawa Isamu, who had barely calmed down, moved his fist away from the wall, and the bright red fist mark was shocking.
“Let’s go,” Ishikawa Yong’s eyes were bloodshot, “leave here.”
“Yeah,” Qianye Yu responded subconsciously, and then screamed, “What did you say!”
“I second the motion.” Aoki Yumi had a cold face and quietly hid her clenched fists behind her back.
“Deputy Captain! Even you…” Qianye Yu looked at the two people in front of him in disbelief, “Didn’t we agree on this before we came here? Why…”
After a long silence, Ishikawa Yong spoke in a low voice: “Even if we stay, in this situation…what can we do?”
Qianye was choked.
“Yes, but even so…”
“Ishikawa is right,” Aoki raised her head, “It’s meaningless for us to stay here… We shouldn’t be standing here at this time.” She raised her head suddenly, “One-eyed Owl… Why would it appear in this place… The exit of this place is too close to District 11. If there is something in it… Such important information should not disappear just because of our death in battle! What’s more…”
“What’s more… we… have no strength!” The veins on Ishikawa Yong’s forehead were throbbing.
Unwilling…
If we stay here, we will just become a burden.
As a CCG warrior, I really shouldn’t back down when facing a ghoul…but…
Chiba, Ishikawa Yong seemed to have aged a lot overnight, You go back and report the situation here to the headquarters, and Aoki and I will
“I don’t agree!”
Before he could finish his words, Qianye Yu interrupted him excitedly, “Why, why don’t you let me stay and live and die with the captain?”
Live and die together.
This word was like a sharp blade, piercing deeply into Ishikawa Isamu’s chest.
column.
Why didn’t we make this choice back then?
If I were strong enough, I would have the power to protect everything…
How could it end up like this…
The words “live and die together” deeply hurt his self-esteem, just like everything that had happened before.
No matter what happens now…
At least, I won’t blame myself and regret it anymore…
Even if the road leads to the abyss or the sea of ??fire, he will not hesitate and will go on firmly.
The naive idea of ??joining CCG with the young and ignorant ambition to change the world disappeared at this moment, and the whole person was like a sword drawn from its sheath, extremely sharp!
Knowing shame leads to courage.
“Let’s go, Chiba,” Aoki turned his head, “If you don’t want everything we do to be meaningless… let’s go,” his voice trembled at the end, “I… have wanted to do this for a long time…”
Looking at the two of them leaving, Qianye’s words “I want to go too” were stuck in his throat and he couldn’t utter them.
Until tears blurred my vision and dark clouds covered the sky.
It was raining heavily.
“Pah–” As they stepped into the water, splashes of water appeared everywhere, and all the members of the 24th District Sharp Knife Team ran.
In order to avoid supervision from the headquarters, they disobeyed orders and left all the equipment that could communicate with the headquarters in the military tent. Now Chiba Yu is on his way back.
Arima Takamasa stopped the work in his hands and stared out the window. His eyes were vague and deep, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
The door was suddenly pushed open.
“Arima,” Marute, who came in, shook off his rain-soaked coat in embarrassment, and muttered in dissatisfaction, “It suddenly rained halfway through the journey, what bad luck.”
“Is the meeting over?” Arima’s eyes were still fixed on the window as he spoke lightly.
“Ah,” Marute came up with a grin, “There are so many geniuses in CCG these days. Today I met that little guy named Suzuya Juuzo again. He is really interesting…” He laughed again, and then his expression suddenly turned cold.
“I just received a call from Chiba Yu, a member of the 24th District’s Sharp Knife Team. The 24th District’s Sharp Knife Team encountered a one-eyed owl at the entrance from the 24th District to the 11th District.” Marute’s sharp eyes stared at the handsome back, “What do you think about this… Matt and others.”
“Oh?” Arima raised his eyebrows in surprise, “There are still survivors in their group… What a surprise.”
Marute’s eyes widened in shock.
“So,” his voice was trembling, “you already knew about… the one-eyed owl…”
“Yes,” Arima replied softly, “The 24th District is full of mixed people. When I heard the news that the 11th District was conquered by ghouls, I knew that their group might be in trouble…”
“If that’s the case, why are you still sitting here leisurely! Tengchuan Xiali…you know the potential and value of that little guy…right!!!” Marute was already furious.
“Now we know that the one-eyed owl is the king of the bronze tree and the culprit behind the attack on District 11. So our goal is…”
“I don’t care what your purpose is!” Marute has completely lost his composure, “Xia Li has the same potential as you! If we want to deal with them… his strength is indispensable, Arima, do you understand?”
“I understand.” Arima’s expression was still extremely calm, even a little chilling, “Genius can’t grow up in a greenhouse… You should understand that, Marute Tokuden.”
Marute was silent.
Indeed, if he could really survive this time, he would probably be able to almost fully grow into a powerful investigator who could stand on his own like Arima.
By that time, they will obviously have a better chance of winning.
The risk was too great, so great that they could hardly bear it.
I believe you won’t let me down…right?
Arima turned his head again and quietly stared at the heavy rain outside the window.
Twenty-six (old version)
The shameless author is back after two weeks of hiatus… The chapters that were missing in the past two weeks will be made up this week. The following is the main text.
Crack
9 979
I can’t remember how many times I screamed.
His throat was hoarse and his body was suppressing desperate cries, but he was unable to vent them as he faced a wall covered in thick blood.
“9…97…2…”
My body gradually became numb, my eyes gradually became numb, my limbs kept leaving my body, and then growing back again…
What a horrible recovery ability.
However, this is not something to be thankful for at all.
I already understand…I already…
It has become a complete monster.
“96…5…”
In this dark world, misfortunes always come one after another.
As he gasped for air, the man in front of him had an unnatural flush of pleasure on his face.
“As expected…Kaneki-kun, you can never break it no matter what you do…” The long pliers in his hand flashed with a cold light and once again dyed bright red, “Let me have more fun…”
Time seems to have become a meaningless number.
He also asked to keep reporting the number after subtracting 7 from 1000…
At first I didn t understand the significance of this.
It was not until later that I finally understood that he did this just to keep me as awake as possible.
“9…1…6…”
Crack, crack, crack
“ah !!!!”
The gecko’s excited roar, along with a trembling sound, rang out from deep within his mind.
Go crazy… scream… howl…
In my mind, Tokyo’s largest centipede is swimming…
I can’t even remember exactly when it started.
Whether it’s hands or feet, eyes or heart, this kind of thing…
It doesn t matter anymore.
“Please hold on… Mr. Kaneki, we will definitely… definitely find a way to rescue you!”
The man and woman in front of me are named Xiu and Yao.
They are Mr. Wanzhang’s subordinates…
No matter how strong the recovery ability is, it still takes time… During this short period of recovery, they will come to comfort and clean up the blood on the ground when Gecko is not around.
They once said that they would definitely… definitely rescue…
A sea of ??snow-white flowers all over the world.
“Hey…what kind of person is Kaneki-kun’s mother?” Rize held her cheeks and looked at Kaneki’s face.
“Mom, she used to be my pride.”
“I would rather be the one who gets hurt than hurt others. A gentle person is happy just because of this.”
“You are such a gentle person…that’s why something like this happened to me.” Rize gently played with the ends of her long hair.
“ah–!!!!!”
I don t know if it was a mixture of tears or saliva, but the transparent liquid flowed down his face.
“Please… just kill me…”
5 6 5
I would rather be the one who gets hurt…than hurt others…is this what your mother taught you?
Wiping the tears from Kaneki’s face, Rize raised the corners of his lips frivolously.
Do you really think so?
My mother was always so gentle… She shouldered all the burdens by herself, and had to pay the living expenses that her so-called financially strapped sister asked for every month…
She is truly amazing
“Then what?”
Finally he died due to overwork…
I became alone…
No, I have one last place to stay.
That was his only support…
only
“But you’ve even lost your most important friend… That’s all your own fault.”
Li Ze turned around.
Lying in front of Kaneki were two young bodies.
It was the one who was comforting him not long ago…
A young man and woman named Xiu and Haruka.
“All the losses in this world are caused by the lack of ability of the parties involved,” the gecko behind him grabbed Kaneki’s head tightly and forced him to look up, “Although the person who taught me this sentence is a scum of the human race, I am very grateful to him now.”
“Kaneki, I finally figured it out these past two days…”
After seeing the faces of the two people tied up on the ground, he began to tremble all over.
“You are not only physically tough, but also mentally tough, so I decided to change the way I play.”
Crunch…
The gecko snapped his fingers fiercely.
“A man and a woman who love each other…”
He leaned his head close to her ear and said, “Who do you want to kill? Choose for me!!!”
I asked them to take care of themselves just for today…
Let yourself hope that they can save you…
Consider them your benefactors…
“If you don’t choose, I’ll kill them both…”
“Let me put it another way… who do you want to save?”
Why must I choose…
“I have no choice in this matter… Isn’t it like… asking me to kill them!!!”
“Choose quickly!!!”
“How can I choose… If you want to kill me… then kill me…”
The gecko stood up and grabbed the woman’s neck, lifting her up.
“Choose quickly!”
“Hurry up and choose me, Mr. Kaneki! Otherwise, Xiaoyao will die!!” Xiu on the ground roared indistinctly through a white cloth that bound his mouth.
“Choose me now! Kaneki!”
“ah–!!!!!!!!!”
In the end, Yao died in the hands of Gecko.
“Look, he’s all broken…” The kagune suddenly pierced Xiu.
“This is all… your fault!”
Twenty-seven (old version)
The vision was covered with blood.
No…it’s not my fault…
No, it’s really my fault.
How come you only understand something so simple and easy to understand now? Kamishiro Rize s voice sounded beside him, You are like this, always blaming yourself, and only blaming yourself You are not willing to change anything, so
She sounded disappointed. “This is all your fault.”
Become like this…
Is it a coincidence?
Or an accident?
No…I’m afraid that’s not the case! ! ! !
All losses in this world are caused by the lack of ability of the parties involved.
All this happened because… I am an ignorant fool…
That’s why he turned into a monster…
Rather than hurting others, it is better to be hurt by others…
Is this really correct?
Mother
“If you are strong enough to kill the gecko, you can save those two people,” Rize still did not stop her verbal offensive, “If you choose the man, maybe you can save the woman.”
The scene of Miss Ryoko being cornered by Bai Jiu appeared in front of my eyes again.
“It was the same then…if you were strong enough…”
Blood splattered everywhere.
Images of important people being killed kept appearing before my eyes.
Hinami…
And… Yingliang…
“Yingliang!!!!” He shouted his friend’s name loudly, but his friend turned around and spat out two words coldly.
“monster.”
“No… No… I…”
“Why don’t you tell me the truth?” Yingliang lowered his head, “You still didn’t have a choice…so, it turned out…like this…”
The gecko’s face suddenly appeared behind Yingliang’s ear, and the white mask was stained with Yingliang’s blood.
“Ah!!!!” Sitting on the chair, he let out a loud scream of despair.
“See? This is the way you choose to survive.”
Why are you crying…
Why are you screaming…
Isn’t this your own choice?
It seems that both sides have been chosen, but in fact, both sides have lost…
“It’s the same with your mother. If she had ignored her unreasonable sister, she wouldn’t have died of excessive fatigue.”
“shut up “
“Being gentle is a good thing… If I really loved you, I should have given up that sister.”
So annoying
“What a foolish mother you are… You should think so too, right?”
“Stop talking…”
Tears burst out and dripped onto the blood-stained ground in front of her.
“Mom… why did you leave me alone… I don’t want to be alone… I hope you choose me, I hope you live for me…”
Is it okay even if I don’t help my aunt?
“It doesn’t matter if I don’t help!!!”
Is it okay to hurt others?
“It doesn’t matter even if it hurts others!!!”
Is it okay even if it means taking my life? ! ! Rize s deep purple eyes flashed with a cold light.
It doesn t matter if it s taken away!!!!!!
Screaming madly.
Sometimes, in order to protect one party, you have to give up the other party. If you can’t do it before, it’s not gentleness, it’s just cowardice, it’s just the strength of not giving up…
Do I have to continue to be hurt like this?
A guy like Gecko…can he be forgiven?
The snow-white sea of ??flowers sways slightly.
“I can’t forgive…”
A few white flowers suddenly turned into blood red.
If the power of the bronze tree continues to grow, it will sooner or later cause harm to Area 20.
“I will never let this happen.”
A few more white flowers were dyed bright red.
Gudong’s companions, and importantly Yingliang, will probably also encounter such things.
“The guy who took away my place… is unforgivable.”
But do you have such power?
” have.”
The breeze blew gently, lifting the snow-white sea of ??flowers and Rize’s long hair.
Will you accept me?
“No, that’s not it.”
The red color of the sea of ??flowers under my feet suddenly spread.
“I just need to… surpass you.”
Does it matter even if it is wrong?
“It’s not me who’s wrong…it’s this world…”
The whole world was covered in blood-like dark red.
Teach(??)???teach(??)???????(??)??
(Please tell me please tell me the conspiracy in it)
Servant (??)??(??)?Who (??)?????
(Who is inside me?)
Her black hair turned white like snow without her noticing.
?(??)???(??)??????(???)?
(This world is broken.)
?(??)??(??)??(??)??(?)???
(You are laughing even though you can’t see anything)
“This rare happy time is about to end…” Gecko slowly took off the mask on his face, “The purpose of Bronze is to destroy all threatening things…”
The white hair on his forehead covered Kaneki’s eyes, and only the lower half of his face could be seen, expressionless.
“The place where you worked before… was called… Antique, right? It was also a target for Bronze Tree to… destroy.”
The corners of Kaneki’s lips curled up slightly.
“Kaneki…! Let me plunder… and finally let me… eat you!!!!!” The gecko took two steps forward with a ferocious expression.
“Hehehe…” Kaneki suddenly suppressed a low sneer, “You… are such a boring man.” His cold tone and accent completely changed him into another person…
The gecko was a little stunned at first, and then his face suddenly twisted.
You are the best indeed!!! Let me plunder!!!
Bang–!!!
Kaneki suddenly broke free from the chains on the chair and instantly landed behind the gecko. Before the gecko could react, he suddenly opened his mouth and fell down.
“boom–!!!!!”
Kaneki was thrown out and fell to the ground. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
“It tastes terrible…it tastes just like the innards of rotten salted fish.”
?(??)??PU(??)?????(??)?stop(?)??
(Please let this broken me stop breathing)
?????????????
(I don t understand anything anymore.)
??(????)??freeze
(Even the truth is frozen)
“You actually… ate me…” The gecko looked at the blood on his cheek in disbelief.
Kaneki lowered his head, the corners of his lips raised in a graceful arc.
He smiled slightly and folded his fingers hard.
Crack.
Unlike the gecko, the sound of Kaneki snapping his fingers is obviously not as low as that of the gecko, but much crisper.
The gecko’s purple and red kagune suddenly stretched out and attacked Kaneki.
?(??)???(??)???Crazy(??)??Crazy(??)???
(It s about to break, it can t break, it s about to go crazy, it can t go crazy)
?????(?)???
(I want to find you)
?(?)???(??)????(???)??(?)??PU(??)?
(I stand in this turbulent and twisted world)
Through(?)??(??)???(?)??????
(Gradually, I can t see anything clearly through the gap)
After a struggle, Kaneki was suddenly thrown out by the half-transformed gecko.
After the smoke and dust, he slowly walked out unharmed.
“Next… it’s my turn!” His eyes suddenly widened, and the bloodshot in his one eye was clearly visible. He suddenly spread out his four scales, which were exactly the same as those of Kamishiro Rize, and leaned forward to rush towards the gecko.
Meet (?)????? servant (??)????
(Please don’t look for me)
See you
(Don’t look at me)
“Hey…I have a question for you…” Kaneki sneered at the gecko lying on the ground like a dead person.
“1000-7…what is that?”
Twenty-eight (old version)
What good luck.
The usually smiling demon ape couldn’t help but sigh.
Irumi and Hinami stayed with the store manager, and he followed the store manager’s advice and broke into the CCG 11th District branch occupied by the bronze tree through the small door, and unexpectedly found Touka in the water dungeon.
Of course, besides Dong Xiang, there are guards.
He adjusted the gorilla mask with a weird smile.
“Then… I’m on it.”
On the other side, Kaneki Ken, who defeated Gecko and learned from him where Touka was, was running quickly, occasionally knocking down a few ghouls who tried to hinder him along the way.
Finally it stopped in front of a figure.
“What are you rushing to do… Or are you going to save my good-for-nothing sister?”
Kirishima Lingren’s cold and hard voice softened a little when he mentioned the word “sister”.
Since you know this, why are you still standing in front of me?
Clearly seeing this message from Kaneki’s eyes, Lingren sneered in a low voice.
“What a pity, you can’t pass here.”
The current Kaneki is no longer the timid person he used to be. Too lazy to talk nonsense, he opened his Kagami and Kagami, clearly expressing his desire to force his way in.
The two figures suddenly intertwined, lifting Kaneki’s white hair.
I see
After feeling that the power in his hands was not as great as he had imagined, and was not as huge as it looked, Kaneki clearly thought of a few words.
bluff.
I immediately understood what Kirishima Ryoto meant.
Then, if you wish
I m really sorry for you… Kirishima Ryoto.
I have received your love and care for my sister!
Crack
After gently folding his fingers, Kaneki and Mu ran together again.
Leaving behind him was Kirishima Ryoto, who was covered in bruises. He fell down with a smile on his face, a satisfied smile on his lips.
I leave it to you…Kaneki Ken.
That’s weird…why are the guards so weak?
The demon ape held Dong Xiang in his arms and looked around with some confusion.
Of course he didn’t know that all the guards were driven away by Kirishima Ryoto, who was arrogant and said that he alone was enough. If Nick hadn’t been worried and sent a few of his men to warn people, there probably wouldn’t have been a single guard.
And he was extremely cautious, fearing that a more powerful enemy would suddenly appear.
His suspicion was not without reason. It was really strange that all the guards guarding an S-rank ghoul were B-rank or so, wasn’t it?
He was thinking like this and remained alert at all times, but he didn’t expect that he would hit the mark accidentally.
However, the enemy is not a ghoul.
The purple-gold light swept across the way, effortlessly clearing out all the minions that dared to stop him, and finally stopped killing in front of the demon ape.
“Leave her here, and you can go.”
Taking graceful and steady steps, he held the purple-gold long sword and calmly made a sword flower.
The demon ape broke out in a cold sweat.
The guy in front of him had such a fierce aura that he looked like a prehistoric beast in the eyes of the demon ape, and he didn’t even have the courage to resist.
“Xia…” Dong Xiang woke up at this time.
“What? Is it someone you know? Dong Xiang “
Yes, even if he was wearing a mask, she could recognize him at a glance.
That s him
She nodded, struggled to get off the demon ape, and stumbled towards him, but her feet went limp because she was too weak.
The demon ape reached out to take it hastily, but someone was faster than him.
She fell into a pair of strong arms.
“Why do you wear a mask…” She stroked his face infatuatedly, feeling the familiar facial features through the mask.
After asking this question, I burst out laughing.
“The noble young master, the quasi-Grim Reaper,” “CCG’s strongest newcomer,” Fujikawa Kari, quasi-special class, I’m afraid she will be recognized immediately as soon as she shows her face.
By then, maybe the next day, the fact that he saved a ghoul would be known to the world…
So, humans and ghouls… are they really possible…
The crystal eyes were tinged with darkness.
She mustered up her courage and raised her head.
Then she felt him stiffen.
My heartbeat accelerated quietly.
Although he was wearing a cold mask, he could still feel the amazing softness and heat of those lips…
The demon apes on the side were all stunned…
Lip parting.
Looking at Dong Xiang who buried her face in his arms with her ears red, he smiled knowingly, tightened his arms, and held her tightly as if he was holding her into his chest.
I felt the warmth in his arms, and heard a sound as soft as a mosquito’s hum.
“Thank you for saving me…”
“What nonsense are you talking about…” He tilted his neck back with a slight smile, “Idiot.”
“…Interesting.” The girl tugged at the white bandage around her neck, which seemed to be a little tight and made him uncomfortable. “The fish has taken the bait, we can collect the net now.”
“Understood.”
Duo Duoliang responded, nodded, and disappeared into the darkness.
The girl lifted her hat and untied the bandages wrapped around her head circle by circle. Her long lake green hair broke free and flew in the wind.
A bandaged weirdo instantly turned into a cute and lovely girl.
If Fujikawa Kari saw this scene, she would be extremely surprised, because this was obviously the girl who saved him before.
“He clearly saved you before, but he just left without saying anything.” The girl stood on a high place, looking at Xia Li and Dong Xiang hugging each other below, curling her lips in dissatisfaction, revealing a complicated expression, “What a heartless man.”
He stroked his little chin, as if it was still aching.
Xia Li seemed to have some sense of something and looked upwards, but found nothing.
After watching for a while and finding nothing unusual, he turned his eyes away.
“An illusion?…”
Twenty-nine (old version)
Two years have passed since the chaos in District 11.
The order of CCG has almost completely returned to normal, and the lives of everyone in “Antique” seem to have returned to normal, except for the absence of two people.
“Takenaka…” And Kaneki. Looking at the two empty seats, Touka’s expression was a little depressed, and her heart was empty.
Time always heals wounds, but there are always exceptions.
Almost at the same time, on the outskirts of District 3.
There were tombstones everywhere, obviously, this was a cemetery.
The sun shines quietly here. Normally, a place like a cemetery should give people a gloomy and scary feeling, but here it is indescribably peaceful and tranquil.
The bones buried here are those of the investigators who died in the battle against ghouls.
Gently placing the bouquet of white flowers in her hand at her feet, the blonde girl slowly stood up.
Mado Akira, second-class investigator.
The position was not high, but no one dared to look down on this delicate and beautiful girl.
Her parents were both senior warriors with distinguished military achievements in CCG, and her mother had even been promoted to a special investigator.
Her fighting style was not earth-shattering, but she inherited her father’s style and was even better than him, showing calmness and wisdom everywhere.
However, everyone only sees her glamorous and beautiful side, but who understands how much bitterness and tears are hidden behind the glamour?
She stared at the tombstone in front of her.
The tombstone was chosen by her personally, with two simple columns of words.
father
Senior Investigator Mado Kureo
Her expression is still as cold as ever. It is this mask that earns her the reputation of “Iceberg Goddess”.
Unfortunately, the fatigue behind the mask was almost overwhelming the young girl.
She held back the tears that were flickering in her eyes and rubbed her eyes gently, but her gaze remained in the distance.
A tall figure stood there quietly.
Like a silent stone statue.
That person… had been standing there before I came, right?
Is it the family of an investigator who died in battle?
She seemed to be able to feel the undercurrent and sadness as deep as the Aegean Sea beneath his plain appearance.
Looking at the back, she couldn’t take her eyes off for a moment.
“He’s such a gentle boss… I’m afraid he’s still blaming himself for that incident.”
Suddenly, a strange female voice sounded. Mado Akira turned his head warily, and the person who spoke came into view.
This was a girl who was just as beautiful as herself, but the difference was that she had a calm and gentle smile on her face.
The typical Yamato Nadeshiko temperament.
She held out her hand to Mado Akira, “Hello, Mado-nii, I’m Chiba Yu, former member of the 24th District Search Team.”
Chiba Yu?
Mado Akira subconsciously reached out to hold the other person’s slender hand and was startled. Then he turned his head in shock and looked at the figure above.
Then… the identity of the person above is obvious!
Even someone as calm and rational as Zhen Huxiao couldn’t help but get a little excited.
If her guess was wrong, then the person above is really a big shot.
The most dazzling existence among the many investigators of CCG, one of the eight special investigators, Tengchuan Xiali, known as the noble son of CCG, possesses SSS-level combat power. He is known as the god of death together with Arima Kishou. He has made great military achievements. During the search of Area 24, he fought head-on with the SSS-level one-eyed Owl and remained undefeated. He has expelled more than 20 SS-level ghouls of varying strengths and countless S-level ghouls. His existence has almost become like a belief.
For such a brilliant person, is it possible that his heart becomes unexpectedly soft when the halo fades?
District six.
“call–“
A stream of white smoke came out of his mouth.
The middle-aged man fiercely extinguished the cigarette in his hand into the ashtray, his eyes revealing a hint of cruelty.
He picked up the Quinque box in his hand and waved.
“Set off.”
District 6 is an area that is neither chaotic nor safe.
Ever since the appearance of the SS-level character, Shiya, life has become increasingly difficult.
Fortunately, this guy, Sha, was recently captured by CCG and imprisoned in Kuklia, so this area has become much calmer.
Today’s mission is to eliminate the remaining forces of that guy. Logically speaking, without the leadership of the tiger, although his subordinates are not sheep, they should not be in too much danger.
But why do I feel so uneasy?
Shinohara Tokutsu has already helped to this extent, how can we let him worry about it anymore?
I am already a quasi-special investigator.
Shenmu Qinghui threw away the uneasiness in his heart and set out to run towards his goal.
“Stop joking!”
But soon, Shenmu Qinghui regretted his previous ease.
Are these guys really the subordinates of the shark?
How can a subordinate be more powerful than the leader?
In front of him was a crazy ghoul that was eating up the dozen or so men he brought with him.
Not entirely. These guys, let alone being ghouls, don t even have basic human form.
They are simply… a group of monsters!
Looking at the corpses on the ground, Shenmu Qinghui’s eyes were full of unwillingness.
These…are all good men of CCG, young investigators with endless potential…
In order to enrich their experience, they were brought here to let them see the battlefield…
The battle was originally not dangerous, but such a sudden change happened, which he had not expected.
Moreover, the appearance of these ghouls in front of him was also unusual.
Each of them seems to have the characteristics of a half-hero, and they are unconscious and irrational.
Their individual combat effectiveness was enough to make Shenmu Qinghui feel difficult to deal with, let alone a group of them.
Looking at the dozens of “monsters” surrounding him, Shenmu Qinghui felt a little desperate.
I’m afraid today is unavoidable…
“How is this possible!!!!”
Kamiki Seiki roared and raised the Quinque.
This world…
What happened?
Thirty (old version)
“In surgery.”
The bright light reflected in the deep pupils seemed a little heavy.
Yukinori Shinohara frowned.
Although Shenmu was not an incredibly strong guy, he was at least a quasi-special-class existence, and had stepped into the SS-level. There had been someone who could make him escape so miserably before.
But now that guy is staying in Kuklia obediently.
The distance between District 23 and District 6 is quite far.
What’s more, I was the one who escorted that guy there. Even if he escaped from prison, it couldn’t be so fast.
Ding ding ding
The communicator rang rapidly, and Yukinori Shinohara took out a small walkie-talkie from his coat pocket.
“Shinohara, we have confirmed that the guy is still deep in Kuklia, and there is nothing unusual.”
Shinohara Yukinori let out a long sigh.
Although he had already made up his mind, he still couldn’t help but confirm the situation.
An enemy you know well is always better than an unknown one.
It seems that we really shouldn’t be optimistic.
Quickly adjusting his mindset, Yukinori Shinohara straightened up and dialed Marute’s hotline.
“What’s wrong? Shinohara Tokugawa?”
Marutesai’s voice came from the communicator.
“Marute… I’m afraid some incredible guy has appeared in Area 6.”
Yukinori Shinohara’s voice was terrifyingly solemn.
“Oh?” Marutesai on the other end of the communicator raised his eyebrows. He knew that Shinohara would not joke about such things. “Didn’t we just capture that SS guy from District 6…”
“Yeah…” Shinohara Yukinori rubbed his brows in distress, “I didn’t expect it to be so soon…”
“Then…” Marute thought for a moment, as if choosing his words, “What kind of guy is he?”
Shinohara Yukinori understood what Marute meant. He was asking about the other party’s strength.
“I’m afraid even I…”
There was a long silence.
Marutesai had a terrible headache.
Arima Takashi is still knocking down moles in the 24th area.
Currently, the only one whose fighting power is higher than that of Shinohara Yukinori is Tengchuan Xiali.
Unless he sends out another special agent.
However, the special class members are not as idle as imagined. Tokyo is so big that there are always some restless guys. There are only eight special class members in total. Excluding Shinohara and himself, as well as several other special class members who have missions, only Tengchuan Xiali and Kuroiwa Iwa are free to take action.
That guy Tengchuan Xiali just expelled the SS-level ghoul “Green Rat” a few days ago. That lurking guy had tortured him for weeks, and he was finally caught head-on and chopped down with just two swords. It was really ridiculous.
I finally have a holiday, if he messes it up…
Marute couldn’t help but shudder.
“Shinohara Toku-sama,” the doctor in surgical gown called softly, awakening Shinohara Yukinori who was still in a trance, only to find that the red light in the operating room had been turned off at some point.
“Shenmu Junte is out of danger… maybe he will wake up tonight.” The doctor took off his mask and showed a relieved expression. “Although he looks seriously injured, the wound is not deep. It just looks scary.”
Thinking back carefully, it seems to be true. At first, his body was covered with bloody scratches, which looked very serious. Shinohara Yukinori also thought that the scratches were caused by Yuhe’s ghoul, but now thinking back, they seemed more like scratches caused by sharp fingernails.
nail?
Yukinori Shinohara couldn’t help but feel a little creepy.
No way?
It seems that we can only understand all this when he wakes up.
The next day.
“Dozens of Half-Hercules???”
Marute’s eyes almost popped out of his head.
“I’m afraid it’s true.” Shinohara Yukinori smiled bitterly, “Kamiki has no need to lie about this kind of thing, and, looking at his injuries…”
“No.” After Marute Sai came to his senses, his mind raced, “If what he said is true, then I’m afraid that this matter will really only trouble Tengchuan… But,” Marute’s eyes suddenly became sharp, “With dozens of Half-Hezhe… How did he escape alive?”
Shinohara Yukinori was speechless.
But when I thought about it carefully, I broke out in a cold sweat.
If it were me, would I be able to break through the siege of dozens of Half-He Warriors?
Moreover, Shenmu s injuries were not very serious. At most, it could be considered as shock caused by excessive blood loss.
But…that doesn’t make sense.
Shenmu there was no need for him to make up such a lie.
Then this matter is probably worth pondering.
“Special Adviser Shinohara!” Just at this moment, a nurse rushed in in panic.
Shinohara looked up at the panting guy in surprise.
But what that person said made his face change drastically.
“Shenmu Junte is waiting for him…he…his heart has stopped.”
How is that possible!
Yukinori Shinohara stood up in shock.
Weren t we out of danger yesterday? Why today???
The emergency doctor’s pacemaker was still rubbing.
But the person on the bed was obviously dead, and no matter how skilled the doctor was, he couldn’t save him.
Shenmu, why did it die?
Shinohara Yukinori was puzzled.
Ding ding ding ding
The communicator rang urgently again, and Shinohara answered the call absentmindedly.
“Shinohara Tokutsu…!!!” The person seemed to be in a noisy environment, and his voice was trembling. “The Sixth District Branch Building was attacked! The opponents are all ghouls, and they…Ah !!!!”
The sound on the other end of the communicator was chaotic, with screams mixed with the sound of metal colliding and the beast-like roar of an unknown guy.
The terrifying sound makes one’s scalp tingle.
Hey! Hey!!
Yukinori Shinohara shouted loudly twice, but there was no response from the other side.
District 6 branch building!
Yukinori Shinohara gripped the handle of his suitcase tightly and quickly left the hospital.
Thirty-one. (Old version)
Mado Akira glanced at Tengchuan Xiali, who was holding a box with her eyes closed in the back seat. Even though they were facing a powerful enemy, that guy didn’t look strange at all, as if all the emotions that should have existed didn’t exist in him.
“Report,” the soldier in the driver’s seat stopped the car, got out and opened the back door, “We have arrived at the destination, please give instructions.”
Tengchuan Xiali opened her eyes and stepped out of the car, “Mado No. 2, follow me to support the headquarters, and the rest of you will stand by.”
The reporting soldier saluted, turned around and shouted to the containers behind him, “Stand by!”
Tengchuan Xiali lowered her voice and said, “Let’s go.”
Mado nodded and picked up his Quinque box.
Corpses were everywhere.
The strong smell of blood filled the air, and even Tengchuan Xiali’s face looked a little ugly.
The entire District 6 branch building has turned into a living hell.
“Special officer Tengchuan.” Akira Mado squatted on the ground and observed the bodies of his dead comrades, frowning.
“Look, there are basically these types of dead investigators,” she pointed at a middle-aged investigator hanging upside down on the back of a chair, “This one seems to have died from having his internal organs crushed by a huge force… So one of our enemies this time is a ghoul with great strength. It is preliminarily estimated to be Oki’s ghoul.”
“Then, this investigator was equipped with an S-class Quinque, but it seems that he and the Quinque were cut in half. This means that there is a guy with a kagune that is as sharp as a blade. He is at least SS-class, and may be a Kagune.”
“There are many other bodies with scratches similar to those of Shenmu Junte and others. According to the information provided by Shenmu Junte and others, there is a high possibility that they are an unknown number of crazy half-hertz. I personally think that the enemy this time is much stronger than expected. I suggest that we report to the headquarters and let the director make the final decision.”
But when she said this, she frowned again.
I always feel like…something is not right…
Tengchuan Xiali looked at the petite girl beside her with some surprise.
He originally thought that his so-called partner this time was just another burden sent by Xiu Jishi to be with him to gild his reputation, but he didn’t expect that he was so insightful. He could deduce so many things from just such a few clues…
If it can be used properly, it may be a very good help.
“Do you feel something is wrong?” Tengchuan Xiali looked at Mado Akira who seemed to be thinking about something, and raised the corner of her lips. “If it was an invasion by ghouls, there would be no signs of gnawing. So it can’t be the crazy half-hercules that Shenmu Junte and others mentioned who lost their minds… and!” He raised his head suddenly, his eyes shining, “Don’t you think there is something missing from the body?”
What’s missing from the body?
Oh my god.
There are no ghoul corpses.
This discovery made Mado Akira shudder.
If there is no ghoul’s corpse, there are only two possibilities.
First, those ghouls collected the bodies of their companions after the battle.
If this is the case, it means that this organization is extremely strict and organized, and what Shenmu Junte and others said about it being a group of crazy half-her people is not true.
How could such a sane person do such a thing?
second.
The second one is a bit scary.
This means that these guys…without the combat power of quasi-special level or above, there is no way to cause any damage to them!
But no matter which one it is, it’s probably not a good thing for them.
And if they were using this as bait…
Oops
Those ordinary soldiers outside the door!
“It’s too late.”
“What?”
Looking at Mado Akira’s colorless face, Tengchuan Xiali shook her head helplessly.
“It’s too late,” he repeated, “I’m afraid those guys have already attacked them as soon as we left. Their purpose…I’m afraid is to cut off our retreat.”
The faint sound of explosions in the distance confirmed his guess.
Destroy the car and cut off the road.
“These guys…the ghoul organization actually has such strong unity and conspiracy…”
Mado Akira’s body was trembling a little.
enemy
I’m afraid it’s not necessarily just ghouls…
Their purpose may be to strike at CCG’s high-end combat power and defeat them one by one… Are they trying to start a war?
“Unfortunately, it’s not Yukinori Shinohara and Kuroiwa who came here, but me,” Tengchuan Xiali let out a long breath, her eyes lit up with a violet light, and she held the Quinque box tightly, “This is the failure of their plan!!!”
“boom–!!!!!!”
At the same time, the ceiling on the second floor broke and two black figures fell down.
Almost at that moment, the blade of Tiger Scorpion 2/2 was pointed directly at one of them, forcing it back.
Then Xia Li grabbed Mado Akira’s arm, hugged her and took a step back, avoiding a heavy blow.
The entire ground in front of him cracked into a spider web shape, and after a second, it suddenly collapsed.
As expected, just as Akira Mado had guessed before, there is a ghoul with enormous strength!
There was almost no chance to breathe. The ghoul who had been forced back by him before rushed forward again, wielding the sword-shaped armor, and slashed at the two of them, seemingly wanting to cut them in half.
“Innocent!”
After Xia Li entered combat mode, his combat capability increased several times. With a direct charge, he blocked the opponent’s attack and left a long wound on the opponent’s waist and abdomen. If the opponent had not reacted quickly and taken a step back, he would have been pierced through.
Then the powerful ghoul with the tail kagune also pounced over, with the kagune wrapped around his arms to form a glove-like shape, and swung at the two of them.
If Xia Li was alone, he could easily dodge the attack with a flash, and then aim at the vital points and kill him with a sword.
But behind him is Mado Akira.
Therefore, he had no choice but to fight back.
After a loud bang, the Oguchi ghoul did two backflips and landed on the ground with a look of extreme horror in his eyes.
There was a streak of blood at the corner of his mouth, and it was obvious that his internal organs were injured.
When the smoke and dust cleared, Tengchuan Xiali looked at the two of them with an elegant and playful expression.
Unharmed!
Almost in the blink of an eye, two SS-level ghouls were injured, one slightly and one seriously!
Such fighting power!
Thirty-two (old version)
The two ghouls stared at the investigator in front of them with cautious expressions.
This guy… I’m afraid…
“The plan is wrong,” they looked at each other, and their eyes revealed this message.
But it is still within the correctable range… and if it succeeds, the effect will probably be much more deterrent than killing the combination of Yukinori Shinohara and Kuroiwa.
The two waved their hands, and countless black shadows jumped down from the ceiling that they had just broken through.
“Oh…” Tengchuan Xia Li was a little surprised.
“Are these the crazy half-hercules mentioned by Shenmu Junte? They do have the characteristics of half-hercules, right?”
Raising the Tiger Scorpion 2/2, Tengchuan Xiali nodded slightly.
So… let’s get started.
Putting down the thick notebook in his hand, Takatsuki Izumi adjusted his glasses.
“Well~ this is the last one for today… I have almost collected all the information for this book…”
She muttered to herself, then stretched lazily.
With her messy hair draped over her shoulders, in the faint sunlight, one can clearly see the graceful body lines under the not-too-thick autumn clothes.
Such a beautiful scenery would probably move any man.
Unfortunately, there are always exceptions.
The guy behind her seemed to be completely unaffected.
“Tadara-san~what do you want to talk to me about?”
He turned the pen in his hand a few times out of habit, then exerted force lightly with his feet and the swivel chair turned 180 degrees.
In this form of her, almost no one in the “Bronze” would find this place, except for Tadara and Noro, who knew her true identity. In order to avoid suspicion, they generally would not come here to find her unless something big happened.
“The person you are following seems to be in some trouble.”
“Hmm?” Takatsuki Izumi’s eyes suddenly became serious. “It can make him feel difficult… I’m afraid that guy may not be able to stop him even if I attack him… Could it be that…”
Takatsuki Izumi crossed his arms and frowned.
Could it be that that organization took action?
After taking another closer look at Duoduoliang’s expression, she became more and more certain of her guess.
“The opponent is two SS-rank ghouls and… dozens of half-hercules.”
It was the people from that organization who did it.
But why?
If they wanted to keep him, they wouldn’t just send this amount of people…
No, now is not the time to think about that.
Now we have to consider how to save him.
He is very important in her plan, so important that he is almost the core.
We must not let him die so easily in this situation.
She made her decision almost instantly.
“Go tell Noro to go to District 6. If you feel that the situation is hopeless, rescue him.” She hurriedly stood up from the chair, picked up a coat from the sofa beside her and put it on.
Then, I will go to CCG in the name of the author, find a reason to reveal some clues to other special members of CCG, and ask them to go to District 6 for rescue…
There should be one more special candidate in District 6 now, right?
His name seems to be Yukinori Shinohara?
No matter what, just use all the combat power that can be used first.
That organization has been lurking for so long, is it finally going to take action?
It s a big deal at first… and what s revealed above the water is probably just the tip of the iceberg.
It’s really scary.
“Tengchuan Xiali… please don’t die… I still have some information to ask you about the new work I’m conceiving…”
She hurriedly hailed a taxi.
“What did you say?!” Yukinori Shinohara was shocked and stood up from the guest sofa.
“Yes, that’s what I learned by accident.”
A guy who could achieve special honors and had the reputation of “The Indomitable Shinohara” was obviously unlikely to be a fool. After receiving the hint from Takatsuki Izumi, he contacted the ordinary soldiers who sent Xia Li and Mado Akira and found that he could not get in touch with them, so he knew that something must have happened.
“Thank you for your reminder. I will contact the headquarters immediately to explain the situation and then set off to provide support!”
Takatsuki Izumi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Human efforts have been made, and the rest depends on God’s will.
I believe that guy won’t let me down…
At this time, Tengchuan Xiali was over there.
“What a mess…” Xia Li was covered in dust and running wildly with Madoka Xiao. The purple light in her eyes had become intermittent.
This means that his physical strength is seriously overdrawn, and when the purple light completely disappears, he will no longer have the strength to fight.
However, the situation did not seem to be getting better at all.
Before, his fighting power was at its peak and he could easily break down all attacks of the enemy, but he soon found that something was wrong.
Those Half-He Warriors attacked fearlessly without any regard for the consequences of being injured. They just kept on fighting by exchanging injuries for injuries. And under their non-stop attacks, he finally showed signs of fatigue.
After all, he is not Arima Takamasa.
Although he is strong and can be compared with Arima Takashi, that is conditional.
It’s combat status.
This seemed to be a natural ability. Ever since he concentrated his mental strength to the limit during a training session, this ability was awakened. He then continued to train with this as the center, and finally was able to achieve a perfect match. In a short period of time, he could burst out with a powerful combat power that was on par with Arima Takashi.
However, this is time-limited!
When in combat, his mental and physical strength is consumed extremely quickly, which is his biggest weakness.
My head was spinning.
“If this continues…”
Will die.
And it will also cause trouble for Mado Akari who is beside him…
Due to a moment of distraction and hesitation, a half-hero left a bloody wound on his body.
The smell of blood stimulated those half-heroes, and their attacks became more frenzied, and Xia Li could hardly bear it.
We have to find a way to break the deadlock…
Each of these half-heroes has S-level combat power, and some of them will even take the time to attack Mado Akira behind Xia Li, making him run around in a hurry.
His consciousness gradually became blurred.
There were dozens of corpses of Half-Hezhe piled up around him, but he couldn’t feel happy at all.
Behind these half-hercules, there are two SS-level ghouls.
Ghouls have always had strong recovery abilities, so I think they will be able to recover their fighting abilities soon…
The moment they recover their fighting power and join the circle, that will be the moment of his death.
no
This can’t be done.
His offensive became more and more fearless. He completely gave up on defense and started to attack desperately.
We can’t give them any more time… If we don’t fight hard, we’ll really die here…
Flesh and blood bodies have their limits.
After he chopped down the last Half-Hezhe, he was almost exhausted.
Kneeling on one knee, barely using “Tiger Scorpion 2/2” to support himself from falling, he knew it was not over yet.
In front of him, there are two deadly guys waiting for him.
Giant force + sharp edge, this perfect combination that seems almost “impeccable” to outsiders, but in his heyday, he might not be able to fill the gap between his teeth…
However, at this time he…
I couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
He was covered in wounds, physically exhausted, and mentally exhausted.
What to use to continue fighting.
Can’t give up.
I still have… a reason to live!
He tried to stand up, but failed and fell to the ground.
But he was held by a pair of white little hands.
Mado Nori.
This strong woman’s expression was as sharp as usual. Even in this almost hopeless situation, she was still so calm.
Do you believe in him?
But how could she know that at this moment, he almost had no strength to continue fighting…
No.
As smart as she is, she must know it.
A flash of inspiration came to me.
Then, her current behavior is understandable.
The two ghouls in the distance were still looking at him with fear, and were obviously doubtful whether those dozens of Half-Hercules could exhaust his strength.
Their injuries haven’t fully healed yet.
They were also worried about dying at his hands. After all, the shadow he had left on them was too great.
So, what they have to do now is to observe.
Observe whether he is too weak to fight again.
In other words, at this moment, you absolutely must not show any signs of fatigue!
The other party was fooled. They looked at Tengchuan Xiali who stood up with a bluff and retreated one after another.
No way!
The expressions on both of their faces were extremely horrified.
The guy in front of him had some minor wounds on his body and looked miserable, but he didn’t have any fatal wounds and didn’t look like he was unable to fight again.
Are we going to return empty-handed today, leaving behind dozens of Half-He corpses?
The organization is not short of SS-level combat power…
If they knew that they paid such a price but didn’t leave even a single person behind, they would probably still not be able to escape death.
In that case…
It s better to fight to the death!
Seeing the cruelty in the two men’s eyes, Xia Li and Mado Akira looked at each other and smiled bitterly in their hearts.
It’s over.
The next moment, the Kaihe ghoul had already pounced on him, and Xia Li also started fighting –
The purple light in his eyes dimmed to the point where it was almost invisible, and the ghoul was overjoyed.
It seems that he is really strong on the outside but weak on the inside!
In his mind, he had almost begun to fantasize about the reward he would get from the organization after killing Xia Li.
Tengchuan Xiali!
The noble son of CCG, the second most important person in the entire CCG!
“Hey, you…don’t underestimate our awareness!!!!”
With a delicate cry, the light blue whip-like Quinque wrapped around the sharp knife-shaped kagune, forcibly changing its attack route a little bit.
This little bit is the distance between life and death.
The blow aimed at the heart was deflected to the left shoulder, while Xia Li’s sword had already pierced into his forehead.
Die!!!!
There was a crackling sound, the sound of the Quinque breaking that Mado was familiar with.
“If you can get this Quinque back, I’ll give you a better one as compensation.”
After pulling out the hemlock on his left shoulder with great difficulty, Xia Li spat out a mouthful of blood on the floor and coughed twice.
Mado Akane couldn’t help but laugh. She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and reached out to hug the young man in front of her.
Am I going to die here?
But my mood didn’t fluctuate at all…
It seems like dying here with him… wouldn’t be bad.
Mado Akira raised the corner of his mouth and looked at the handsome face coveted by countless women in CCG from a distance. He was a little dazed for a moment.
Being hugged suddenly, although he was extremely tired physically and mentally, he still smiled gently.
Since she’s going to die anyway, it’s not bad to give her some sense of security.
He also hugged the petite girl with his backhand. The smell of his own blood and the faint fragrance of her hair filled his nose, and he calmed down unconsciously.
The Ogiku ghoul with immense strength had suffered severe internal injuries in the previous fight with Xia Li. Although he recovered for a while, he did not regain much combat power.
After all, the tail-shaped He is not the scale-shaped He, and is not known for its recovery ability.
He limped towards the hugging couple, with a hideous expression of ecstasy on his face.
It was a huge surprise that saved one from a desperate situation.
It turns out that this man…
I really don’t have the strength to fight anymore.
No need to die…
Punch them and kill them.
You will be liberated.
“Hey, you guy.” Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded. “You approached the person I liked with bad intentions… What do you want to do?”
Xia Li raised her head suddenly, her pupils dilated in shock.
What came into view was a familiar black half mask.
“Yo~Bai.” The other half indeed had the exact same face as mine.
The man smiled. Different from Xia Li’s gentle smile, that guy’s smile was much wilder and more dazzling. “This guy… I’ll take it for you!”
The light blue kagune pierced out from the waist and directly pierced the powerful ghoul to death in the air.
“You…” Xia Li opened her mouth and was about to say something, but was rudely interrupted by that guy.
“Remember, the name of the ghoul who saved you is Murasaki! SSS level! And tell those CCG investigators that the next time they meet, they must take Tengchuan Xiali’s life!” The second sentence was said while looking at Mado Akatsuki.
Then he left.
Mado Akira is a very smart and well-behaved woman.
She was very tactful and did not ask about the background of the person Xia Li seemed to know, nor did she ask why the person looked so much like Xia Li.
Although she was very curious, she knew that some things were better kept in her heart forever.
Then came the late arrival of Yukinori Shinohara, and the other investigators who were transferred here. Not to mention the other ordinary investigators, even Yukinori Shinohara, who had seen many storms, was shocked by the tragic scene before him.
Seeing Xiaoyuan and others rushing over, Xia Li knew that they were no longer in danger. His eyes went dark and he lost consciousness.
Here is a 4,000-word chapter for you all, wishing you all a happy new year!
If nothing unexpected happens, I will update daily.
Thirty-three (old version)
When I closed my eyes, there was deep darkness.
Extending along the darkness, extending all the way to the deepest part, is an irregularly shaped object of light milky white color.
Xia Li understood that this was his mental power.
As for the use of mental power, he has made some progress.
From the beginning, it was the size of a mung bean, which could only sustain his active state for a few seconds.
It has grown to the size of a fist and its combat effectiveness has increased exponentially.
Something seems to be wrong…
This darkness…seems a little different from usual.
It seems like there is no end?
That’s not right!
Where’s the mental strength?!
“Sooner or later, you will become like this… a useless person!”
The strange female voice echoed in his mind for a long time.
“!!!!” Xia Li woke up suddenly.
The faint sunlight filtered through the curtains of the ward and sprinkled on the floor in the distance.
Is it a dream?
Placing the back of his hand against his forehead, he closed his eyes once again and breathed a sigh of relief when he discovered the familiar form of mental power.
After careful observation, he was pleasantly surprised to find that his mental power had grown a lot, as if he had made a breakthrough without realizing it.
After a moment’s rest, he felt something unusual around him. He opened his eyes hastily and found the blonde girl sleeping on the bed.
Mado Akira…
I don’t know how long he has been lying here…
Crunch
The door of the ward was pushed open, and a head poked in cautiously.
“Dong Xiang?” Although it was fast, Xia Li had a sharp eyesight and could see the person’s face almost instantly. She couldn’t help but call out her name with some surprise.
After the surprise comes the shock.
“Why are you here? … There could be investigators coming to visit at any time. It’s very dangerous…”
“I’m not afraid of this little danger,” Dong Xiang curled her lips in dissatisfaction, and then glanced at Mado Akira who was sleeping beside the bed, “Who is she?”
There was a strong sour taste in his tone.
“Subordinate.”
Xia Li’s answer was brief and powerful, without any hesitation.
He really just treated her as a subordinate, but that day…
It is not impossible for some inexplicable feelings to arise between life and death. What kind of feelings are there between them?
The word “love” is unclear and hard to guess. Who can truly see through it?
“Qi…”
Dong Xiang snorted proudly and put the bouquet in her hand into the vase, “I feel relieved to see that you can still breathe…”
There really was a hint of relief flashing across her eyes.
“I’m leaving now. I’m only taking two classes off. I don’t want to be asked to go to the office for another talk.”
“Hehe…” Xia Li laughed in a low voice, obviously remembering the title of “problem baby” that the two of them had been given under the teacher’s strong suppression.
As if she understood what he was laughing at, Dong Xiang’s face flushed. She gave him a fierce look and left the ward as if escaping.
The loud noise finally woke up the tired Mamoru Akira. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked at Xia Li with surprise who was smiling at her on the hospital bed.
“Are you awake?” She stood up and stuffed a pillow under Xia Li’s waist.
“Huh?”
When I stood up, I found that there was an extra bouquet of flowers in the vase.
Did someone come here… And it seems to be a woman…
She keenly smelled the faint fragrance of another woman’s body in the air. Looking at Xia Li, who was in a good mood on the hospital bed, she felt a little complicated.
She seemed to be thinking about something, while Xia Li was unable to speak, and the two of them fell silent for a while.
The rapid sound broke the silent and awkward atmosphere between the two.
The voice coming from the communicator turned out to be the CCG director and Shujitoki’s voice, “Second-rank Mado? Is Special-rank Tengchuan awake? …Oh, then ask him to turn on his mobile terminal and we will hold an emergency meeting.”
oh?
Emergency meeting?
Don t you even care about him lying on the hospital bed?
Ben still had some doubts about the seriousness of the matter, but when he opened his laptop and saw three people in the two video windows on the screen, he immediately lost his relaxed expression.
Mado Akira on the side was obviously shocked as well. He turned around and was about to step away to avoid suspicion, but was stopped by Marutesai.
“Mado-san, as Tengchuan-san’s deputy, you should stay and listen to the meeting, so that you can help him analyze the situation.”
There are three people on the screen.
In one video, it was Watari Yoshitoki and Marutesai who were sitting in the conference center, and in another video… it was Arima Takamasa who was far away in the 24th district!
The importance of the matter is self-evident.
“Tengchuan, we apologize for hiding the truth from you. As it is a serious matter, we have to remain silent on this matter.” The first person to speak was Kazuki Yoshitoki. “Of course, there are only three of us in the entire CCG who know about this, but we have to reveal it to you now.”
He glanced at Marutesai, “Yes, it is the huge shadow force hiding in Tokyo and even the world.”
Arima Takashi adjusted his glasses.
Yes, it s V
Half an hour later, they ended the call.
No one except the five of them knew what they said.
Of course, Xia Li and Mado Akira didn’t know that after they learned the truth, the conspiracy quietly arrived.
“Oh?” Takatsuki Izumi paused while typing on the keyboard. “Did that guy show up too?…”
If he was able to help out, it must have been at the old man’s behest…
Then the reason why that guy appeared might be worth pondering.
What is brewing…
After reporting the situation, Noro took two steps back and left quietly.
“Tengchuan Xiali…”
I was not disappointed.
He picked up a pen from the table and started spinning it deftly in his hand. Upon closer inspection, the speed and gesture of the pen spinning were exactly the same as when Tengchuan Xiali spun the pen in school.
Thirty-four (old version)
This is an ordinary room.
There were two people sitting in the room.
One was a white-haired old man, holding an exquisite coffee cup in his hand, which was still emitting mist.
The other one is a bit scary.
He was wearing a white mask that covered his entire face. There was nothing on the mask, except for a huge, hideous, cracked mouth, and no other facial features.
His name is Noro.
A terrifying ghoul.
“Is that so…”
The way these two people communicated was very strange, it was almost entirely the old man talking and Noro listening.
The old man kept bringing up things, guesses and opinions, and Noro nodded or shook his head.
“Thank you so much, then.”
The old man let out a long sigh, put down his coffee cup and stood up.
Only after leaving the blind spot of shadow and revealing his face did his face show.
Fangcun has good deeds.
Seeing Manager Yoshimura stand up, Noro also stood up, then nodded to the old manager and left without saying a word.
Looking at the fleeting figure of Noro, Yoshimura Kousen shook his head helplessly.
“Oh… I’m getting old…” Then he bent down with a frail look to pick up the coffee cups on the table.
As expected, Noro’s cup of coffee was full and untouched.
“Manager…have you finished talking to the customer?” Hinami poked her head in cautiously.
District 6 branch building.
The place has almost completely resumed operations, and because of the war that had just happened, almost all of the garrison personnel in District 6 had died. More than 70% of the investigators in District 6 are Xinxue and students who graduated from CCG Academy this year.
It was announced to the public that in order to provide guidance to these new bloods, Tengchuan Tokusei and his assistant Mado Nisei were specially dispatched to District 6.
But I don t know the specific reason.
Normally speaking, it was strange that this not-so-important area was guarded by Yukinori Shinohara. After the SS-level leader of Area 6 was expelled, only Jun-te Kamiki should have been left behind just in case.
Even if CCG doesn’t know how to use its talents, if they are not put to good use, they shouldn’t be thrown into the warehouse at least.
Tokyo is in chaos right now.
But these are not what the newcomers in CCG District 6 care about.
What they cared about was the sense of security that the pillars were not far away from them. Even the tension of coming to an unfamiliar area was dissipated a lot. That was all.
“Tengchuan is really amazing…”
Watching the CCG special channel on TV announcing the number of ghouls driven away by Tengchuan Xiali in one battle in order to appease the people after the end of the counterattack in District 6, a young man in a gray leather coat in the restaurant shouted to his companions with a look of longing on his face.
24 S-level half-hertz and two SS-level.
World War I expulsion.
“One day, I will work hard to be promoted to the level where I can become Tengchuan’s special subordinate!!!”
When his ambition was expressed, everyone was shocked.
His friend hurriedly pulled his arm and said, “Sato…”
“Why are you pulling me, Iwasaki…”
Iwasaki Qiuyin looked at the girls with unfriendly eyes in the distance and felt a chill in her heart.
This good friend of his has a good personality and great talent, his only shortcoming… is that he’s too nervous.
Didn t you see that the girl s glare could stab him to death?
God, someone come save me.
“Oh? Is that so?” A cold voice came from behind them, “Then you better work harder…”
Mado Akira looked at the two young men in front of him with some mockery at their childish faces.
“Ah! It’s Mado Nideng!” Almost everyone in the restaurant focused their attention here at once, and then many eyes began to wander, as if looking for someone.
Normally speaking, it is an honor to have such a famous boss…
But it is indeed a bit frustrating to be ignored like this.
Mado Akira is a very beautiful girl.
Therefore, she would always be the center of attention in a crowd. When had she ever been ignored like this?
She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Don’t look for it, idiots! Tengchuan and others are not with me.”
After hearing these words, she suddenly realized that the female employees looked at her with much friendlier eyes.
The one who is close to the water gets the moon first, but it turns out you didn’t succeed either~
It was a pity that I was worried for quite a while.
Mado Akira really didn’t know what expression to use to face them.
Is it the star effect?
“This afternoon, Special Officer Tengchuan will give some instructions to the third-rank investigators and above at the training ground. Anyone interested can participate.”
Then there was deafening cheers.
It s over, now I ve really become a foil.
She rubbed her brows in distress, but her eyes shone with a soft and bright light, which was particularly moving.
A stack of folders was thrown on Tengchuan Xiali’s desk.
Xia Li looked up at Mado Akira, whose face looked the same as usual, but the air pressure around him seemed to have dropped by a few degrees. He inexplicably felt happy and curled his lips, “What happened? Who made my assistant Mado angry?”
There is mostly joking tone in the voice.
“…” Mado Akira didn’t say anything, but his eyes were silently accusing something.
Obviously Xia Li had known that those guys would be so enthusiastic.
Just like that, she was thrown into the quagmire.
How could this be possible?
It s terrible, don t make her angry.
An angry woman can be very scary. Mado has twice as much ability as him to handle data. If she quits, Xia Li seems to be able to fully imagine herself being buried in piles of documents in the future.
“Um…I’ll treat you to a meal after this?”
Mado Akira’s face suddenly turned from cloudy to sunny, and it was obvious that his anger just now was just fake.
Ahab!
Feelings are still calculated?
This girl who appears to be cool and aloof on the surface is actually incredibly eccentric and clever inside.
However, ever since her parents passed away, she had been hiding under that thick layer of ice. But after getting along with Xia Li for a long time, it seemed to have been released quietly. With her intelligence and talent, she often gave Xia Li a headache.
But this is a good thing, isn’t it?
Thirty-five (old version)
“There’s no time to distract you when we’re in battle!”
With a loud shout, the boy was knocked to the ground with the wooden sword used for training.
Iwasaki Qiuyin lay on the ground, shaking his head helplessly.
Although it was training, there was still no room for fighting back, which gave him a headache.
He could hardly see Tengchuan Xiali’s attack movements.
“It’s terrifying… As expected of Tengchuan Special Class.”
“Is it okay?” Tengchuan Xiali bent her knees and stretched out her hand to the young man on the ground.
“Ah!” he responded, stretched out his hand and steady the strong palm.
“Tengchuan didn’t even break a sweat…”
“So almost everyone was beaten.”
Xia Li smiled.
He thought it was worth spending this afternoon.
In just this short afternoon, he first let each person attack him for more than ten seconds in order to judge that person’s attack method, strength, speed, and plasticity, and then fought back to determine their muscle nerve reaction speed and dynamic vision, and was pleasantly surprised to find several good seedlings.
Xia Li was in a good mood and decided to go for a walk.
Well, call Mado Akira, he still remembers that he owes her a meal.
“Hey, the one in front, stop!”
Kaneki was stopped in his tracks by what he said.
In broad daylight on the street, wearing a gray-green sweatshirt, with a hat tightly covering his head, hiding his entire face in the shadow, and carrying a large bag, he looks suspicious no matter how you look at him.
As a CCG investigator, you have to stay alert at all costs during such a tense moment in District 6!
He took off his hat, smoothed his white hair that he had dyed black to hide his identity, and turned away with an innocent look on his face. Although his expression was in place, it still couldn’t hide the coldness in his bones.
The person who called him was also stunned when he saw his handsome face, which was obviously that of a student. “Excuse me!” The person nodded slightly apologetically, “I am a third-class investigator of CCG. It’s a routine inspection. Could you please open your bag for a moment?”
“…” Kaneki Ken clenched his fists in his pockets, but the expression on his face did not change at all. “Ah, hello, sir. I am Kaneki Ken, a sophomore at Kamii University.” Although he said this, Kaneki was actually extremely nervous in his heart, because he knew that in his backpack were fragments of a dead body.
The troublesome guy’s rations…
The RC cells quickly gathered on his back, and he was ready to deploy his kagune and break out at any time.
Although he is kind-hearted and doesn’t want to hurt anyone, he might be careless when forced to do so.
He slowly reached for the zipper of his backpack, his eyes fixed on the investigator in front of him who seemed to have relaxed his vigilance.
However, in the blink of an eye, the situation changed.
“Oh? The boy said his name was Kaneki Ken? He was a student at Kamii University?…Yes, he’s someone I know. I’ll go talk to him and you can let him go.”
The ordinary soldiers who were responsible for blocking the street in front quickly cleared a path, and a man walked out slowly from it.
So the soldiers all saluted him, and it was obvious that the person coming was of very high status.
Unexpectedly, when the other person came closer, he indeed turned out to be a familiar young face.
“Mr. Fujikawa!”
Kaneki Ken screamed.
The third-class investigator in front of him ignored Kaneki’s shouting and just saluted him with extreme admiration. His movements were textbook-standard. Even Kaneki on the side could feel the fanaticism in his eyes.
Xia Li nodded to him, and he turned around and trotted away.
“You idiot!” Kaneki clearly saw his relieved movement, although the movement was very subtle, “Do you know that your identity was almost exposed! If I hadn’t happened to hear it…” He pulled Kaneki over and cursed in a low voice.
Kaneki Ken was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
Anyway, how did things turn out like this?
Don’t mention it, there’s another guy waiting for him there now.
Kaneki Ken’s grey crystal eyes were filled with a complicated expression.
He paid a lot to find out the truth of the matter.
So much that he could hardly bear it.
But the truth was still like a breeze brushing against his back. He knew it existed, but he couldn’t grasp it in his hand, which made him feel like there was a thorn in his throat.
When he broke into the Garner Laboratory, he had never felt so close to the truth.
Unfortunately, what awaits him is endless madness and an increasingly huge mystery.
It almost made him unable to breathe.
At the end of the laboratory, there was an even more troublesome “package.”
Why a package?
When those familiar purple eyes were filled with confusion and bewilderment, his heart felt as if it was being torn apart.
She seemed to have no idea who she was or where she was.
She is no longer the terrible Okumi, the terrible woman with a cruel and bloodthirsty temperament, but just an ordinary weak girl who longs to be protected.
How exactly does he feel about Kamishiro Rize?
For him, it was the woman who led him to this strange world. His feelings towards her changed from admiration in the beginning to fear, hatred, and gratitude for the help she gave him… to now.
Many complex emotions are mixed together and entangled.
But Okuro is Okuro.
Although he doesn’t eat as much as he used to, like a glutton, his appetite is no less than that of a man like Kaneki.
Although Kaneki didn’t like those things, he just went through the motions of eating.
But some things are still troublesome.
Sighing, Kaneki Ken took a sip of coffee.
Xia Li looked at him thoughtfully.
“I see. This is Akihiro Kano’s laboratory?”
The shadow of the group of half-heroes flashed through Xia Li’s mind.
I see.
interesting.
He looked at Kaneki with a smile and said, “As you please,” then he stood up and waved to the waiter.
“Pay the bill.”
Thirty-six (old version)
Crunch.
The door was closed.
“You’re back?”
Rize lowered her voice and asked with her head half lowered, looking cautious like a cat that had made a mistake.
God is on behalf of the world, God is on behalf of the world.
I’m afraid you would never have thought that one day you would become what you are now.
The arrogant, confident and high-spirited Kamishiro Rize of the past seemed to have completely disappeared.
The one who led him…
The Kamishiro Rize who had uncovered the shadow that was blocking her sight…
But now it has become like this.
He let out a long breath, trying to make his tone sound softer, “…Yeah.”
I wanted to say a lot, but when I spoke it became just a short syllable.
Kamishiro Rize suddenly became anxious. She hurriedly grabbed Kaneki Ken’s sleeve and began to carefully look at Kaneki’s body from top to bottom.
Kaneki Ken’s expression suddenly became uncomfortable.
He struggled uncomfortably with the arm that Rize was holding, but found that he could not escape the restraint – she unexpectedly exerted force, as if the arm in his arms was not a human arm, but a life-saving straw. “Don’t worry… I brought you lunch…”
But before he could finish his words, he stopped at Rize’s expression.
“…I’m not hurt…fortunately…” She let out a long sigh, and her tense body relaxed.
Then she realized belatedly that she had been holding Kaneki Ken’s arms tightly in her arms. Her pretty face turned red and she tried to shake him off.
Is this guy really Kamishiro Rize?
But the corners of his mouth rose quietly, and an arc that he himself did not even notice was faintly hanging on his lips.
But Kamishiro Rize felt terrible.
When she was rescued from that place, she was extremely upset.
Most people may not have had this experience: looking at the things around you, you can feel that they are very familiar. You know how to use it without even thinking about it, but when you try hard to recall everything about it, you find that there is no trace of it at all.
The panic caused by having no idea of ??one’s past and not even knowing who one is is something that most people cannot bear.
Especially she, who was still in severe pain.
The bruises all over her body were one thing, but the most terrifying thing was the burning hunger in her stomach, which almost drove her crazy.
But her mind was blank and she had no idea how to deal with this situation.
She hammered on the door frantically, but found that it didn’t move at all, either because the door was too strong or she was too weak.
“Ah, this door is blocking my way. I can get out by breaking it!” I guess no normal person would have such an idea, right?
But that’s what her instinct just told her –
Punch, and then you can get out!
The result was that she covered her white palms with her hands and stared at the door with tears in her eyes, as if the door would open if she stared at it.
Various emotions mixed together almost made her collapse. She sat down against the wall, her long purple hair scattered on her shoulders and on the ground. She buried her head in her knees and sobbed continuously.
However, at the last moment when she was about to lose her mind, the door was torn down.
Yes, it was demolished. The entire steel door deformed and flew out, almost hitting her, which allowed her to regain some sanity.
The person who came in was Kaneki Ken.
Before he could even react, a purple-red figure suddenly wrapped around her body, then bit her hard on the fleshy part of her neck.
Imagine you open a door, and suddenly a big dog jumps out from behind the door and bites your neck –
The memories end here.
In the present Kamishiro Rize, there is one more person in this blank world like a sheet of paper.
Rize looked at Kaneki pitifully.
Ah… this is a hungry look…
Kaneki wordlessly took off his backpack and unzipped it.
She reached out her hand almost impatiently.
Kaneki Ken looked at Kamishiro Rize who was eating her lunch in small sips in front of him, and his neck began to ache again.
“Are you full?”
Kaneki glanced at Rize who had stopped moving and sighed imperceptibly.
“Hmm…” She responded softly.
It seems impossible to get some information from her.
Then Kaneki seemed to see again the distorted expression of disbelief on Tsukiyama Shuu’s face after seeing the current Kamishiro Rize, and he couldn’t help but shook his head and made up his mind at the same time.
We must never let them meet!
“…You are three minutes and twenty-seven seconds late.” Mado Akira glanced at his watch.
Those beautiful eyes seemed to say, “It is very rude to keep a lady waiting.”
Xia Li put her hands together and apologized, then untied the tablecloth and spread it out neatly, “Sorry, I was delayed by something interesting.”
“Oh?” Mado Akira looked a little curious, but she didn’t ask. This was a unique tacit understanding between them, because she knew that if it was him, he would never hide anything from her.
“Um…thank you.” He took the opened bottle of red wine handed to him by the waiter and said, “About the origin of those half-heroes.”
His eyes narrowed.
“Oh? That’s really interesting…”
Looking at the dazzling array of exquisite dishes on the table, Mado Akira raised her beautiful eyebrows, “Do you usually eat so well?”
“…Maybe.” Xia Li was a little surprised that she left out a topic that she would normally be very interested in, but she was also very tactful and went with the flow, “In the past, all three meals were taken care of by Butler Fujikawa.”
“Oh? So the title of CCG nobleman is worthy of the title?”
“…” Hearing these words full of ridicule, Xia Li smiled bitterly.
Can you chat?
She is such a smart person, she definitely did it on purpose!
The old saying is true: a woman’s heart is as deep as the sea.
Xia Li would probably never guess that Mado Akira didn’t want to talk about business anymore, perhaps because she wanted to make this dinner more like a date?
Who knows.
Thirty-seven (old version)
Time is like a brook of water; the tighter you hold it, the faster it slips through your fingers.
In the blink of an eye, a month has passed. After the Kano Laboratory incident, the CCG District Six Branch has once again restored its previous peace, but the shadow in the dark has made it almost suffocating for Shuu Yoshitoki. God knows how much pressure the CCG director has endured for the safety of ordinary people, but Marute, who has been with him day and night, can do nothing to watch this determined man getting thinner day by day.
Arima Takashi is stationed in the 24th District and seems to have made some discoveries.
However, the days in District 6 were so peaceful that Xia Li felt a little uneasy.
Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be so calm…
“You are really popular with women. I heard this woman is a famous beauty and she specifically asked for you.”
Mado Akira gave Xia Li a coquettish look.
Although it was an exclamation, Xia Li always felt that her words were a bit sour.
“Now, are you sure we don’t want to go meet our savior?”
“Savior?”
“Hello, my name is Takatsuki Izumi, and I’m a writer.”
“oh?”
After Xia Li shook hands with her, he sat down opposite her. She didn’t know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that the petite girl in front of her looked familiar.
“Um…” Xia Li frowned and looked at the girl in front of him strangely. “Although it may be a bit presumptuous, I always feel that you are a little…”
“Look familiar?” The girl opposite sighed softly.
She smoothed her messy lake green hair and took off her glasses in a charming manner.
“…It’s you?” Xia Li took a breath.
The girl in front of him was the same girl he had seen when he woke up from being seriously injured in the battle with the one-eyed owl in District 24.
Because he rushed back to the branch without saying goodbye for the 11th District subjugation war, after the battle was over, he could not find any information about this girl.
He was very surprised at the time, and he went to the izakaya in person, only to find that it was empty.
The girl seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, mysteriously, and everything related to her seemed to have ceased to exist.
He had initially attempted to find information about the girl by searching for the owner of the “Izakaya”, but to no avail.
The only thing that could be found out was that the original owner of this izakaya was a man named Yoshimura Hayashi.
Fangcun… ?
He had a vague feeling that he seemed to have grasped something, but when he thought about it carefully, he failed to grasp the fleeting inspiration.
He knew he seemed to have missed some very important information.
“Hey, hey…”
Takatsuki Izumi was helpless.
Why did he always look dazed and absent-minded in front of her every time they met?
Could it be that my charm has really declined?
Thinking of this, her originally happy mood suddenly took a 180-degree turn.
“Hey, hey,” she puffed up her face in dissatisfaction and poked Xia Li’s face hard with the capped pen in her hand, finally awakening his wandering mind.
“Sorry,” he smiled apologetically. It seemed that he had overdrawn his mental strength severely after his breakthrough recently. He has not recovered yet and often loses focus. He is also very distressed about this.
“Hey~ This time I came here to find you to supplement the information for my next novel.” She turned the pen in her hand again, “The outline of this novel is based on the current reality of Tokyo, and revolves around a mysterious organization and three forces.” Her wide-rimmed glasses reflected a cool light on the table. The air conditioning in the store was turned on very high, but Xia Li still felt a chill, as if she had fallen into an ice cave.
” The name of this organization is V.”
She was satisfied to see the look of surprise in the eyes of the man opposite her.
“And the names of those three forces are Bronze Tree, Antique… and CCG.” She ignored the surprised look on the man’s face and continued to talk to herself, “…So what I need to know is CCG’s trump card that is enough to compete with the other two forces – or in other words, its high-end combat power. Tell me, how should I write it?”
She looked straight into Xia Li’s eyes, without a trace of retreat in her eyes.
“The one-eyed owl of the bronze tree stands on the same front with CCG.”
Still don t understand?
Looks like we need to reveal some shocking news.
I’m afraid it’s just hard to accept for the time being? This kind of cooperation between different races…
Moreover, normal people may find it difficult to accept this…
The union of humans and ghouls?
“…” She opened her cherry lips slightly.
!!! …
Xia Li’s pupils shrank suddenly.
No way !!!
“call “
The man in the shadows shifted on the sofa, settling into a more comfortable position.
“You guys can come out now.”
He swirled the bright red liquid in the cup, then drank it all in one gulp and stood up.
The door was pushed open, and a little light appeared in the dark room.
Two tall figures walked in, and one of them turned out to be an old acquaintance.
The man who looks exactly like Tengchuan Xiali and is named “Purple Dew Grass”.
“How are the preparations going?”
“Well, it’s almost time to start.”
He placed the glass goblet on the table, pulled out a white handkerchief from his bosom, wiped the remaining dark red at the corner of his mouth, sneered twice, and then threw the handkerchief on the ground. “Tremble…Tokyo.”
On the wall opposite him hung a photo.
In the photo, Kaneki’s handsome face had a relaxed smile on it, but it was circled with a big red pen and a cross drawn on it.
Click.
The door was slammed shut, and the room was shrouded in darkness again.
Thirty-eight (old version)
You you you!!! Kamiyo Rize!!!!
There was an earth-shaking cry of surprise from the hut.
Looking at Tsukiyama Shuu who was on level one combat alert with his eyes exposed, and Rize who looked confused and at a loss, Kaneki Ken rubbed his brows in distress.
I knew it would turn out like this!
“Well,” Kaneki frowned, “I should have explained the situation to you in the email… Tsukiyama.”
Yueshan Xi put away his exaggerated expression and his face became serious.
If Jin Mu Suo was aware of it correctly, then they were indeed being targeted.
Moreover, being targeted in this situation is probably not a good thing.
Nowadays, Kaneki is also an SS-level ghoul. If he is thrown into an area that is not governed very strictly, he will be a dominant force. To be honest, even Tsukiyama, through the power of the Tsukiyama family, can reach this level.
Not to mention Kamishiro Rize, who was originally stronger than the two of them.
Although it is of no use now that she has lost her memory.
As the heir of such a huge family, Tsukiyama Shuu still knows some things, such as the turmoil in the Tokyo underground world, such as the CCG high-level officials’ reserve of strength to expel powerful ghouls, and…
And the behemoth, the V Organization.
What exactly is CCG thinking?
The reason why they have never tried their best to expel the Bronze Tree, which has always been a big threat to them, is probably because they have kept something hidden from the V Organization.
However, who knows? If the V organization really wants to take action, I’m afraid that CCG’s high-end combat power will not be able to show off much.
“Hey – have you really decided?” Tsukiyama Xi looked at Kaneki’s cold expression and felt a chill in his heart.
“Yeah.” Kaneki nodded.
Firm and decisive.
By the way, this is the Kaneki Ken I want to see.
Yueshan Xi smiled, “Well, if my family knew that I dared to confront the V organization without knowing the sky and the earth, they would definitely send people to capture me. In this case, you will have to face more than just a huge V organization, and you may also face the full pursuit of the Yueshan family. Even so, are you willing to accept this troublesome package from me?”
“With pleasure.”
Kaneki Ken knew that his indifference was really just a mask
Maybe his kindness will kill him one day, but at this moment, he doesn’t care!
The two held their hands tightly together.
Tsukiyama Shuu performed a solemn salute, “From today on, I, Tsukiyama Shuu, the 12th generation heir of the Tsukiyama family, hereby swear to be the guardian of Kaneki Ken, and never abandon or give up -“
His expression changed. “For this reason, can you let me take a bite? Just one bite? Okay?…”
I knew it would turn out like this!
Li Ze, let s go and ignore this pervert!
OK–
The two people conveyed the message in an instant when their eyes met.
Kaneki, who got goosebumps all over his body, shook off Tsukiyama Shu’s hand fiercely.
“…Kaneki…”
Looking at Kaneki and Rize’s backs as they left, Tsukiyama Shuu chased after them with a sad face.
“Wait for me “
Deep in District 24.
This place is truly uninhabited. Not only humans, but even ghouls cannot be seen.
Perhaps the rumors about this place are too terrifying, or perhaps an SS-level ghoul has mysteriously disappeared here. In short, this is a place that even the local ghouls in the 24th District avoid.
To be honest, there are almost no humans in District 24.
But there are always exceptions.
“The CCG’s Death God, Arima Takasho? I’ve heard a lot about you.”
“…”Arima Takashi adjusted his glasses.
Really, I waited for so long…
“It seems like you’ve been waiting for a long time.” The man spread his kagune, “So you’re a smart man. After you discovered this, you’ve guessed that we can’t let you go so easily… and you’re just standing here waiting. Are you trying to catch me off guard… or…”
He glanced behind Arima Takamasa meaningfully.
“In short,” the visitor laughed, “Apollo, the sun god, one of the twelve gods, sends his greetings to you – and at the same time, please stay.”
“Oh?” Are you going to keep me?
That depends on whether you have the ability.
Clearly getting this message from Arima’s eyes, the man who called himself Apollo smiled playfully.
Ming Shen and IXA were ready at the same time, and Arima’s eyes were more serious than ever.
If he was not mistaken, the enemy before him was definitely the strongest enemy he had ever seen in his life – definitely on the same level as him, or even above him!
A powerful blow was blocked by IXA, and then Narukami easily cut off one of the opponent’s kagune arms. After dodging two kicks, Arima leaped back lightly.
In a short period of time, the kagune arm that he had cut off grew back.
Arima Takashi’s expression remained as calm as ever, but his grip on Narukami’s hand tightened.
If my attack power is 10, then this guy’s recovery power is 8. As long as we give him a little breathing time, the damage caused will recover quickly.
What a troublesome guy
If he didn’t have such recovery ability, he would have been knocked down by himself just now.
His head was spinning rapidly, thinking about how to defeat the enemy. At the same time, the opponent was startled and accelerated and rushed in front of him.
“To be distracted during a battle with me is really disrespectful!!!!”
Several kagune arms twisted together, and Arima only had time to block the IXA in front of him, and he was swept away along with the Quinque.
“Oops “
Thirty-nine (old version)
The battle is approaching a climax.
There is no doubt about Arima Takashi’s fighting ability. He fully deserves the title of “the strongest investigator”. Although the opponent has terrible recovery ability, he is still able to handle it with ease.
Apart from a big mistake before that made him look a little embarrassed, he didn’t even suffer any injuries.
But unfortunately, the hardness of the opponent’s kagune really surprised him –
Seeing that things were hopeless, “Apollo” unfolded his Kagome form. Several Kagome arms gathered together and surrounded him, like the ribs of some ancient creature. It looked particularly hideous. Then Arima realized something was wrong.
The attack that could easily cause damage to the opponent was completely ineffective.
Ming Shen let out a sharp scream. It was the sound of the attack cutting through the air at such a fast speed. You can imagine how powerful it was. However, such a terrible attack, after landing on the opponent, left only a shallow scar after sparks flashed, and then recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
What a terrifying defensive power!
If this continues…
But how can we break his defense?
Arima Takashi narrowed his eyes slightly under his glasses and stared at the other person’s armor carefully.
If breaking through the surface with a point is the most sharp attack method, then Narukami is definitely the most suitable Quinque to break through the defense.
So… now that I have caught you in a flaw –
Already defeated!
I have to say that Arima Takashi is truly a genius. His battle instincts and fighting talents are absolutely unprecedentedly high.
“Apollo” looked at his armor in disbelief because it was covered with cracks.
” How is this possible! How did you do it “
One shot to the throat.
“I’m sorry,” Arima Takashi’s cold and ruthless voice sounded behind him, “I’m in a hurry. I have to excuse myself.”
He put away IXA and Narukami, a faint smile on his face, “As for how I broke through the defense, then just look at your kagune.”
Apollo looked down at the armor wrapped around his arm as a shield, and finally reacted.
It turned out that all the previous horizontal slashes were completely calculated by Arima Takashi, and his fatal blow landed on the intersection of the horizontal and vertical scars.
The point that he had quietly crossed many times!
This was where he eventually died.
“What a terrifying calculation ability – but unfortunately, do you think you can be unscathed… You are still too naive, Arima Takashi. The vitality of an SSS-class Hei is not something you can underestimate…”
He covered his throat which was pierced with a huge penetrating wound, turned around abruptly, and opened all the arms of the kagune around him, and pounced on Arima Takamasa like a shining sun.
This kind of hemisphere is his killer move, and it is also the reason why he is named “Apollo, the Sun God”.
“The Yueshan Family…are they here so soon…”
Tsukiyama Shuu looked at the dozens of ghouls surrounding them with some bitterness. Each of them exuded a tragic aura and was obviously experienced in battle. Kaneki and Tsukiyama Shuu sandwiched Rize in the middle, standing back to back.
“With just these few people, you want to take me back by force?… This is too much, it’s too contemptuous!!!”
Tsukiyama Xi’s handsome face seemed a little distorted because of anger. He took off his elegant mask, and the dark purple armor wrapped around his arms in circles, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
“Just be patient, Yueshan.”
Kaneki calmly stopped him, “The real owner hasn’t shown up yet.”
“What did you say?”
Tsukiyama Shuu was dumbfounded. Just these guys in front of him looked like they were already giving him a headache. Even if they combined their strengths, they might not be able to escape successfully. And yet, Kaneki said at this time that the protagonist had not appeared yet?
The three of them just stood there in this posture, while the other party also stood there calmly, surrounding them, without moving.
This further confirmed Kaneki Ken’s guess.
Suddenly, a passage appeared in the tight wall of people, and Kaneki’s heart tightened.
Sure enough, a man in a suit walked out slowly.
He wore a pair of large wide-brimmed sunglasses that covered half of his face, but couldn’t hide his pale lips and sickly temperament.
“Hello,” the man took off his sunglasses, revealing a pair of dead grey eyes, “I am here to greet you. You can call me Hades, the God of the Underworld.”
“Huh? Hades, the God of the Underworld? You guy, do you think you are… uh uh…” Just when Yueshan Xi raised his eyebrows in disdain and was about to mock him, the man in front of him disappeared and came behind him, with sharp scales pressing against his back.
Kaneki s pupils suddenly shrank.
Even he could hardly catch a glimpse of the other party’s figure at that moment. He just vaguely saw a black shadow. When he was about to open his mouth to remind him, the other party had already appeared behind Yueshan Xi.
Kaneki broke out in a cold sweat!
This guy’s speed
Not to mention catching up, I’m afraid it would be difficult for him to even capture it!
No kidding…
The other side threw a character like this at the beginning, are they trying to give us a warning?
How can we fight this?
The opponent’s body swayed and he returned to his original position. He looked relaxed and it was obvious that he had not yet exhausted his full strength.
“Now can we talk?”
Tsukiyama Shuu touched his back with lingering fear, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, then turned his eyes to Kaneki Ken, and his eyes clearly said: It all depends on your decision.
Kaneki Ken swallowed and was about to speak when a soft but unquestionable voice sounded behind him.
“Kaneki, don’t panic.”
Kaneki Ken was horrified.
Another person came behind him but he was unaware of it!!!???
Forty (old version)
Kaneki looked back in horror, but then heaved a sigh of relief.
“Mr. Tengchuan…”
Tengchuan?
Hades raised his eyebrows with great interest, “You are one of the two high-end fighters of CCG, the quasi-death god Tengchuan Xiali? …Interesting.”
“Who are you?…” Tengchuan Xiali walked slowly to Kaneki, but her body tensed up and she took a serious alert posture, quietly blocking all the directions that Hades could break through and attack the people behind him.
“Oh?” Hades was really interested now. He thought about it carefully and found it perfect. If he wanted to bypass him and attack Kaneki Ken behind him, it would be impossible. “It’s really extraordinary,” he put away his frivolous attitude. “I am Hades, the Lord of the Underworld – one of the three giants of the Twelve Gods,” he put his sunglasses into his pocket, his expression calm and unhurried, and a terrifying momentum suddenly descended.
“Oh – you are really arrogant, even calling yourself a god,” Xia Li said calmly, even with a hint of ridicule in her tone, “Are you really not afraid of getting your tongue blown away by the wind?”
Kaneki Ken looked at Xia Li in surprise.
In his impression, Xia Li has always been elegant and gentle. This is the first time he has seen someone use such sharp words to mock someone.
“You know what,” he ignored Kaneki’s surprised look and Hades’s gloomy face, and continued, “I really hate your organization… Although I don’t know why, but,” he pointed to his heart, “but my heart tells me that I can’t wait to get rid of you.”
“I’m sorry, it seems that I can’t convince you to join V…” Hades sighed regretfully, “Then the next time we meet, we will be enemies of life and death. Remember to tell the little guy behind you that one good luck does not mean you can escape every time.”
He turned away, but frowned.
He didn’t know why, but he always felt that Tengchuan Xiali gave him a familiar feeling…
How is this possible?
But the feeling was so strong that he didn’t think it was an illusion.
The group of people just left without saying a word.
Just as quietly as they came.
Not to mention Tsukiyama and Rize, even Kaneki was a little overwhelmed to react.
What I thought was a fight to the death was just going to end so easily?
This is too…
The huge sense of gap made them unable to recover for a while, and Xia Li’s mind was filled with many unclear and broken images, like a series of slides.
He knew that this was a fragment of his lost memory.
Unfortunately, they are too confused and cannot be sorted out.
There was dead silence until Mado Akira arrived.
“What’s wrong?”
Her voice woke Xia Li up.
“You look bad,” she said, her eyes falling on Xia Li’s pale face with some worry, “What happened?”
“No, nothing.” His attitude was a little perfunctory, and he looked absent-minded and terrible.
“…” Mado Akira looked into his eyes for a long time, then turned away.
My heart aches.
Why…why do I have to handle everything by myself?
Why…why can’t you just say it?
Obviously, obviously we are willing to share your burden…
Is it interesting for a person to show off his strength?
Noticing Mado Akira’s gloom, Xia Li behind him also smiled bitterly.
I understand your intention.
But…how can I understand? The pain that can be expressed is no longer pain…
The atmosphere fell into strange silence again, and finally Xia Li spoke up to break the silence.
“Let’s go find a cafe and chat. I happen to have something I need to discuss with you guys… Let’s go to Antiques.”
antique?
Jinmu broke out in a cold sweat.
This perceptive man…did he discover something?
No way
Xia Li laughed.
“Kaneki,” he seemed to have finally found something that could make him feel better, “I already knew about your antiques.”
Nani !!!!
That’s only natural.
Mado Akira had speculated long ago that if a district was particularly peaceful, it was either because there were very few ghouls in the district, or because there was a ghoul organization that was restraining them. But the former was obviously impossible, because it was said that if there were such places as stable districts, ghouls from other districts would definitely enter, and sooner or later there would be chaos, so the latter was very likely.
There is a ghoul organization that exists in Area 20, and its power is definitely not small, otherwise it would not be able to deter and threaten those newly joined foreign ghouls.
Antique coffee shop.
Touka, Takenaka, and Kaneki are three ghouls above S-level, which are not considered small characters in any area. Moreover, they are just ordinary store clerks, so the combat effectiveness of the characters above them can be speculated.
Then it is definitely an antique.
Plus the hint from Takatsuki Izumi before.
Four forces, Bronze Tree, Antique, CCG, V.
Then the antique definitely has SSS-level combat power.
CCG is not stupid.
It’s just to hide my abilities to counter V.
And now, it’s time to go to the antique shop and talk to the old store manager…
By the way, I’ll go see that little idiot Dong Xiang. I missed him after not seeing him for a while…
The group moved very quickly and reached the antiques area in less than an hour.
A group of people entered the antique shop in such a mighty manner. Rujian and Gujian became alert immediately, especially after seeing Xia Li carrying a box, they almost cried out.
The youngest special investigator Tengchuan Xiali, who has been widely publicized by CCG these days, has almost become a household name.
It s hard not to know him.
They quickly dispersed all the guests and looked at the people in front of them as if they were facing a great enemy.
Kaneki and Kamishiro Rize who came in later also surprised them. How did these people get together?
“Excuse me, what would you like to drink?” Rumi winked at Furuma, indicating that he should go in and find the store manager, and she herself went up to him and asked with gritted teeth.
“Don’t be so nervous,” Xia Li said gently, “I’m here to see Manager Fangcun and Dongxiang… I have no hostility.”
As he said that, he casually placed the Quinque box on the floor, found a more comfortable spot and sat down.
Kaneki and the others also took their seats one by one.
Give me a Blue Mountain.

?Tokyo Ghoul?Dark Emperor: 41 Pictures and Texts
“So “
Fangcun Gongshan put away his kind smile and squinted his eyes at the young man in front of him, “CCG’s second-in-command, Tengchuan Xiali, what brings you here today?”
After dispersing the irrelevant people, only a few insiders brought by Xia Li were left, including Kaneki Tsukiyama Shuu, Kamishiro Rize and Mado Akira, while behind the store manager stood Furuma Madoka and Irimi Xuan.
The two sides were standing as if they were negotiating, and the atmosphere was heavy and depressing.
“Well, there’s no need to be so nervous,” Xia Li put down the ceramic cup, “We came here today to talk to you about the organization.”
“…Oh?” Fangcun Gongshan still narrowed his eyes, his face as calm as a pool of stagnant water. “We,” he reminded, “you just said ‘we’.”
Old fox!
Xia Li cursed inwardly, but he still maintained his composure on his face, “I’m not testing your attitude, manager,” he raised his eyebrows, his eyes sharpened, “I think there is no one who knows V better than the old man, right? And today, it’s not just me and the CCG I represent who are here to discuss this matter,” he glanced at Kaneki Ken and winked at him, and although the other party looked a little struggling, he still gave him a look that said it was okay, “and Kaneki, the Bronze Tree he represents.”
“…” After a moment of silence, as if he was weighing the pros and cons, Fangcun Gongshan let out a long sigh, “So, what do you need me to do?”
Done.
Xia Li secretly praised in her heart, talking to smart people is much easier.
“We need specific information and components of V’s high-end combat power,” Xia Li said slowly, “If possible, it would be best if we could borrow your help, old man. Of course, Gudong will also become our comrade-in-arms, and we will also protect the safety of the store members.”
“I have only one condition…”
In front of the antique shop.
“Kaneki.” Xia Li called out Kaneki’s name.
“Yeah.” Kaneki behind him responded.
“You can go back to Bronze,” Xia Li said, “Don’t worry about Xiao’s attitude. From a certain perspective, she hates V more than we do.”
kindness?
Jinmu looked at Xia Li in surprise.
I always feel that his tone is like he knows the One-Eyed Owl…
By the way, they should know each other. It seems that they had a confrontation in “that incident”…
And that time, was when I was reborn from the ashes
Kaneki’s eyes hardened.
Don’t forget your original intention.
Xia Li turned around and glanced at Jinmu with a smiling look, “Go ahead, you can do it.”
I don’t know whether it means that he can bring the information to the one-eyed owl and convince her, or something else.
But Jinmu always felt that Xia Li seemed to see through him from the inside out…
He shuddered.
What a wise and frightening man.
Looking at their departing backs, Mado Akira frowned in confusion. Although she saw the cause, process and outcome of the whole incident, she still didn’t understand Xia Li’s intention.
Xia Li, however, spoke to himself at this time. “Kaneki has the potential to be SSS-level,” he said, but Mado Akira was attracted by the content and did not notice the abnormality in his tone. “So in the near future, he will be a very important chess piece, indispensable for the fight against ‘V’. Kamishiro Rize will also be a good fighting force. SS+ is not far behind 3S level, but it is still a little bit worse than the Twelve Gods of ‘V’.”
Mado Akira suddenly realized that the other person’s face was sickly pale, and he no longer had the wisdom and composure that he had when he and Yoshimura Kousen were testing each other.
“You…” She supported his shaky body and reached out to touch his forehead, which was burning hot. “Do you have a fever?”
She stamped her feet anxiously, “Why don’t you take care of your body?” She took out her communicator and started calling.
He looked at her anxiously and shook his head. “This fever is a sign that my memory will be restored,” he said. “Recently, I have more and more dreams about my past memories. I’m worried about what will happen then.” He smiled, and his smile was so pale that it made people feel sad. “I’m worried… I’m worried that after I restore my memory, will I still be myself…”
Mado Akira tried hard not to let his tears flow.
“So you’re desperately hoping to do something before this happens, right?”
He nodded.
At the very least, it could facilitate the union of the three forces as Takatsuki Izumi had proposed before.
After receiving the information from Yoshimura Kousen, he was even more glad that he had done so. “If it weren’t for this, there would be no chance of winning at all “
But even so, the odds of winning are still slim…
Even though he looked sick, he still forced himself to endure the discomfort and frowned as he thought. It would be most appropriate to describe him as putting all his efforts into it.
Mado Akira finally couldn’t suppress her inner impulse. She put her arms around his neck and kissed him.
“!” The girl’s lips had a cool body temperature, which startled Xia Li and brought him back to his senses. The moment he relaxed, he was unable to resist the pain in his body and he fainted.
“Have a good sleep,” Mado Akira looked at his face with a somewhat sad expression, as if he could never see enough of it, “You need to rest.”
The world of dreams is very strange.
Many people should be able to understand that feeling. In a dream, you can clearly know that you are dreaming, as if your spirit and mind are split into two, one struggling in your dream, while the other seems to know everything, watching coldly, watching yourself struggle and suffer in the dream.
Knowing that I am dreaming but unable to get rid of it, and being immersed in the pain and sorrow of the dream is really terrible
But this time it’s a little different.
Xia Li knew that what he was seeing now were his own memories.
But what he saw still made him a little panicked.
Because the scene in the dream was an image of him and another identical self escaping from an iron-clad reinforced concrete building.
And the way they addressed each other also made his hair stand on end.
Because, another self called him that.
“white.”
Forty-two (old version)
“He still hasn’t woken up?”
The fiery sky cast a red shadow on Akira Mado’s face.
She shook her head.
“But we need his strength now. At least at this time, we can’t lose him.”
Marute sighed helplessly.
Mado Akira didn’t say anything.
“Tengchuan Xiali,” He Xiu Jishi spoke, “He is the strongest man I have ever met.”
He glanced at Mado Akira thoughtfully, “He will definitely wake up. Although I understand that waking up may not be a good thing for him, he will still face increasing pressure day by day… But this is our fate…”
Our destiny is to bear.
From the moment I joined CCG and showed my outstanding talent, I was prepared.
We are carrying the lives of millions of ordinary people…
You can imagine how heavy the pressure is.
Mado Akira glanced at He Xiuji’s tired face and remained silent.
Everyone seems to be having a hard time…
But we are helpless, unable to even help them…
The communicator suddenly rang, and it was an urgent sound that was only used in emergency situations.
He Xiujishi and Marutesai looked at each other, and both of them saw shock in each other’s eyes.
At this time, if something else happens, I’m afraid CCG will have no way to deal with it?
Unless Arima Takasho from District 24 is transferred back…
“Hello? Marute Special?” Shinohara Yukinori’s voice came from the communicator, “…something happened in Area 24,…it’s Arimate Special.”
Bang.
Marute lost his mind and the communicator fell to the ground.
“Hey…? Hey! Please consider the situation and urgently transfer Special Officer Tengchuan here!”
The voice of Yukinori Shinohara was still coming from the communicator on the ground, but He Xiuji could only look at Marute and smile bitterly.
He leaned over and picked up the communicator on the ground, “Shinohara, Special Officer? I’m He Xiu Jitoki.”
“What? You said that Tengchuan and others have a high fever and are unconscious??? But it seems that there are ghouls in the 24th area who can hurt Arima and others. This morning, someone found Arima and others unconscious at the entrance of the 24th area. Although his injuries are not serious, he seems to be exhausted. In this case, this place is very dangerous!”
A slender hand reached out from behind and took the communicator from He Xiujishi’s hand, “Shinohara, special agent?”
His voice was a little weak, but it was filled with irresistible determination. “I am Tengchuan Xia Li, and I will leave for District 24 now.”
Arima Takamasa’s injury and coma must have been a big blow to the 24th District Search Team. The fear of pillar collapse might have defeated them. If Tengchuan Xiali could appear at this time, it would undoubtedly be a shot in the arm for them, so he had to go.
The three of them looked in surprise at Tengchuan Xiali, who was wearing a hospital gown and looked tired. Their throats seemed to be choked and they couldn’t utter a word.
Xia Li gave them a weak smile, “Tengchuan Xia Li, I’m returning to the team now – I’m sorry to have made you worry.”
“Hey – are you kidding me?” Mado Akira grabbed Xia Li’s arm, “Look at your current physical condition. If you go to District 24 now, we will be really worried, okay -“
“But I have to go.” Xia Li looked at Mado Akira with gentle eyes, “Aka, how come you are so smart today… You must understand the impact of Arima’s coma on the people in District 24…”
But but
Noticing the change in the way he addressed himself, Mado Akira’s eyes changed for a moment, but then turned cold again in an instant.
“Stop messing around, go get me my ‘Tiger Scorpion’.”
Mado Akira stared at Xia Li for a long time, and finally gave in. Unable to persuade Xia Li, she obediently went to help him get the Quinque.
He turned his head and looked at the two superiors in front of him.
The two people showed him a gratified look. When he looked at Marute and He Xiuji in front of him, he thought for a moment and then said, “You should have received the information I gave you…about the alliance between the Twelve Gods and the three forces.”
“You are right,” He Xiuji nodded, “At this time, the goals of our three forces are the same, so your method is feasible, but it is feasible. How to unite the three forces is still to be discussed…”
He looked at Xia Li, who seemed relieved, with a surprised expression.
“Could it be?” Marute interrupted in disbelief.
“Yes,” Xia Li shook her head, “Please forgive my self-willed decision. I have already reached an agreement with the other two forces on behalf of CCG. The conditions are as follows…”
He slowly read out the terms of the agreement reached by the three parties at the time of the antique.
“Oh my god,” He Xiuji opened his eyes wide in surprise, “What forgiveness? You did a great job on this matter!”
“We also obtained the other party’s information,” Marute exclaimed in admiration, “and even restricted the harm these two forces caused to ordinary people. Compared with what our CCG had to pay, it was simply insignificant.”
Xia Li did not comment.
Mado Akira walked over with Xia Li’s Quinque box and gray leather coat with a cold face. Her eyes were so cold and terrifying, “Your leather coat and Quinque,” she said and threw the leather coat into Xia Li’s arms.
But Xia Li discovered that the leather coat was not the same as his –
This piece of clothing was obviously thickened, apparently because they were afraid he would catch a cold.
It should be that Mado Akira temporarily added a lining to this piece of clothing during the time when he was unconscious.
Although she had a cold face, Xia Li’s heart warmed up, as if he was injected with strength, and he reached out his hand to her.
“Let’s go? Let’s go to District 24.”
Marutesai and He Xiuji gave each other a knowing look.
It seems that their choice was correct – transferring Mado Akira to Tengchuan Kari as a subordinate.
Forty-three (old version)
There were two more people sitting in the back seat of the car.
This scene seems somewhat familiar, but the difference is that the mentality of the two people has changed drastically.
“Why?” Mado Akira, who was sitting in the back seat, looked out the window, his hot breath leaving a thin layer of mist on the window glass. “Why should you take it for granted that you have to endure so much… so much…”
Her voice choked.
“Xiao,” Xia Li opened his eyes, but Xiao turned his head to face him, so he couldn’t see his expression. “I…I,” he said, “have long hated myself, hated my incomplete self, and tired of the nightmares that recurred day after day and the long blank spaces in the past.”
Mado Akira turned her head in shock, and Xia Li discovered that her face was covered with tears.
“Until I saw something,” Xia Li reached out and wiped away the tears on Mado Akatsuki’s face, “the orphanage outside the Countermeasures Bureau, the hateful eyes of the children who lost their parents, and the helpless looks of the ghoul children whose parents were killed by CCG, and the day-to-day fighting and confrontation, the ghouls and investigators who used violence to fight violence with a twisted mentality, knowing clearly that this was wrong.” His expression became firm, “and the ordinary people who don’t know the truth but long for a happy life – my heart is very small, Akatsuki,” he glanced at Mado Akatsuki, “even though my heart is so small that it can only hold those few people, and I only want to protect those few people, but I think I should still do what I can, because I am a human being.”
Perhaps many years later, if we ask Akira Mado why she fell in love with Tengchuan Xiali so desperately, I’m afraid her answer would be like this.
I don’t know why I fell in love with him. His personality is really not the type I should like. But maybe, it was the time I saw him from afar in the CCG cemetery, the time when we huddled together waiting for death during the battle, or the time when he said with a firm face, “I am human,” in the back seat of the car on the way to District 24.
From the heart.
“I don’t have time to think about myself, Akatsuki.”
He just smiled and said such cruel words.
Mado Akira resisted the urge to ask him if his memory had returned.
The car stopped.
The soldier in the driver’s seat quickly opened the door, got out, and opened Xia Li’s door, “Sir, we have arrived at the 24th District garrison camp.”
When I walked to the square, I found that the CCG soldiers were sitting there in a dejected manner, discussing the matter of Arima Takasho.
Morale was extremely low.
It seems like I came to the right place this time.
He and Mado Akira looked at each other and realized that they had already thought of a solution.
“CCG soldiers,” he raised his voice and shouted, “I am the special investigator of CCG headquarters, Tengchuan Xiali,”
The soldiers quickly gathered together, showing that they were indeed the elite of CCG, and they still had some discipline in this situation.
“Is that the quasi-death god?”
“You look so young…”
“The reason I’m here this time,” his voice got louder, drowning out everyone else, “is to present badges to Arimathe and the others.”
He raised his hand, tightly clenched in his palm was a three-winged emblem.
Three Wings!!!!
Everyone looked at his hand in shock.
“Yes! As we all know, expelling an S-class ghoul will give you a single wing, and an SS-class ghoul will give you a double wing,” he said. “We have confirmed that Matt and the others expelled an SSS-class ghoul with only minor injuries and exhaustion, Apollo!!!”
“Apollo is such a loser that he couldn’t even keep one Arima noble general.”
Apollo’s death in battle was a slap in the face of the organization.
“Don’t underestimate CCG,” a familiar voice said. The person who spoke was Hades, the god of the underworld. “I have met that Tengchuan Xiali. It is said that Tengchuan Xiali is the second-in-command of CCG, below Arima Takashi. From my feeling… she is quite extraordinary. So it is no surprise that Arima Takashi, who is above him, defeated Apollo.”
“I am really interested in someone who can be evaluated like this by Hades,” a hoarse male voice sounded, and a burly figure stood up from the seat of one of the Twelve Gods, “I hope you can make me feel happy.”
“God of War Ares,” Hades’ eyes sparkled, “Please pray that those two guys don’t die in an ugly way.”
“War maniac,” the beautiful woman in the back seat frowned and muttered.
“Shut your mouth, Artemis,” Ares growled.
“Hey, let me say,” the sly-looking man tried to persuade her, “She just lost her brother, so you should be more tolerant of her.”
This shifty-looking man is the “Messenger”, the god of thieves, Hermes.
“King, please allow me to seek redemption for my brother.” Moon Goddess Artemis knelt on one knee. “Compared to Ares’s violent attack, I think I can have a better way, right, Sister Athena?”
The pretty girl on the left hand side of the ‘king’ smiled and nodded. She had a pair of deep brown eyes and long golden hair, and looked very wise. This was the goddess of wisdom, Athena.
“Oh?” The King raised his eyebrows with interest. “Well, then I’ll leave this matter to you guys.”
“Oh, what a bastard,” the big guy Ares growled in dissatisfaction. This big American guy was surprisingly straightforward.
“Be quiet, Ares,” the ‘king’ said, and Ares wilted like an eggplant hit by frost.
“Okay, I can’t beat you, so I’ll listen to you.” Ares muttered.
Forty-four (old version)
Fujikawa Kari and Arima Takamasa looked at each other.
The phrase “looking at each other in silence” is so appropriate to describe the two of them.
“You look pretty good,” Xia Li, who was younger, couldn’t hold his temper anymore. He said this with a rare gloating look on his face. “I thought I would never see you like this in my lifetime.”
Although he was being ridiculed, Arima Takashi still looked at him calmly and said nothing.
“Hey, Arima,” Xia Li said absentmindedly, “Can we really win like this?”
“Yes,” Arima paused and repeated, much more confidently than before, “Yes.”
“Yes… do you blame me?”
Do you blame me?
Blame it on me for playing tricks and forcing you to join our united front…
Blame me for plotting against you, letting you grow up based on the death of your companions…
Blame me for totally ignoring your feelings and incorporating you into my plan…
Blame me for bringing you into this messed up world.
Xia Li smiled and shook her head.
“Maybe I would have grabbed your collar, punched you hard, and angrily asked you what you thought I was… But,” he looked directly into Arima Kisho’s eyes, and was satisfied to see the emotion in his eyes for the first time, “I won’t do that now.”
Sometimes, when reason overwhelms emotion, you will find that being a chess piece… is not something difficult to accept.
“No wonder.”
The two people seemed to have telepathic connection and said these two words at the same time.
One is Fujikawa Kari, and the other is Kaneki who is far away in District 20.
He stared into Rize Kamishiro’s eyes seriously and said, “I don’t know how many memories of me you still have in your mind, and I don’t know what you still remember. I just want to say,” the cool wind messed up his white hair on his forehead, “I don’t blame you.”
No wonder…
Although Rize was completely confused, tears continued to well up in her eyes.
She looked bewildered.
“Hey…what’s wrong…Hey…” She kept wiping the tears from her face with the back of her hands, but found that she couldn’t stop crying.
It wasn’t that she wanted to cry, but this body was crying.
Hey, hey
“No…don’t go.” She grabbed Kaneki’s sleeve with tears in her eyes, her face full of anxiety.
“…” Kaneki didn’t say anything, but stretched out a hand and covered the hand that was holding his sleeve with a little force.
Rize’s expression, which had originally changed from worry to joy, froze.
He gently pushed her hand away, turned around, hugged her, and left a light kiss on her forehead.
“Wait until I come back.”
Then turn and leave.
Even though Rize kept calling his name behind him, he did not waver at all.
After an hour’s trek, Kaneki arrived at the agreed place on the outskirts of District 24.
“You really came here alone. You are worthy of being the one I have my eyes on.”
“What do you want me to do?”
“It’s very simple. You just need to cooperate with us in putting on a show… Remember my name. My name is – Athena!”
“Yoshimura is a good person.”
“…Artemis,” Yoshimura Kozen narrowed his eyes, “You are younger than I thought.”
“Yes – this is what the King has bestowed upon me… a long age and youth. In the two years since you left,” Artemis sneered twice, “the experiment has made great progress. Ironically, the guy who was the next target of the experiment actually escaped… so we have been waiting for an opportunity.”
Fangcun Gongshan’s eyes suddenly widened.
“Yes! It seems that you understand–” Artemis’ beautiful face turned cold, “Your child has long been noticed by the organization… Otherwise, do you think she could have survived until now after being abandoned?”
It’s me. I’m sorry to both mother and son.
Fangcun Gongshan seemed to have aged a lot in an instant, “I… have long been tired of being the sword in the hands of the organization, the days of killing, and I have long been prepared to bear the retribution for all this one day, but!”
I will never allow you to do anything to her!
“This is not something you can decide… She has long been in the hands of the organization. The organization spared you and allowed you to live until now because of your great contributions and hard work. Otherwise…”
The rest of the words were blocked in his mouth. The old store manager who always had a kind smile on his face, for the first time, showed his vicious face in front of others!
He turned around and pushed the door open. “Demon Ape, Black Dog, take them away and go find Sifang.”
It was clear who they were referring to.
They are Hinami and Touka.
“Take care of yourself!”
The two of them took Hinami and Touka and quickly left through the back door.
“Where are you running to!”
Artemis rushed out from behind the door and spread her huge horns. The door was too small for her to squeeze out, so she slammed the entire wall down.
The collapse of the load-bearing wall caused the entire building to begin to shake.
“Don’t even think about it!”
The aura of a prehistoric ferocious beast broke out of the cocoon, and Yoshimura Kousen finally unfolded his long-lost Hezer form.
Easily blocking two blows from Artemis Yuhe, Yoshimura Kousen slammed into Artemis with terrifying momentum. The power of the SSS-level natural disaster was clearly visible. She was knocked dozens of meters away and finally slammed into a pile of steel and concrete on the roadside.
Passersby screamed and ran away.
Furuma and Irimi took advantage of the situation and quickly took Touka and Hinami away from Gudong.
Yoshimura Kousen put on a mask representing an owl and slowly walked out of the destroyed antiques beyond recognition.
Artemis spat out a mouthful of blood and stood up shakily.
“You’re still as good as ever… I guess I have to get serious too.”
A bloody battle is about to begin!
Forty-five (old version)
Squeak, squeak, squeak
The reinforced concrete made a teeth-grinding sound, and Artemis crawled out from the reinforced concrete in a somewhat embarrassed manner, staring at Yoshimura Kousen opposite her.
Compared to the seemingly young Artemis, Yoshimura doesn’t look that good.
The Hezhe armor on his body was torn into pieces and covered with dark red blood. He was gasping for breath and looked dying.
The armor on Artemis’ forearm slowly deformed, and the bow-shaped armor was aimed at Yoshimura Kousen’s chest, and she showed a cruel smile.
“Farewell – the organization’s former sword.”
The dark red arrow made entirely of kagune attacked Yoshimura Kousen’s neck, obviously intending to kill him with one blow.
“call out–“
The sharp sound that cuts through the air ends with the crisp sound of a hammer.
“Oh my god – I almost missed it.”
“Ah ” Artemis was startled, “It’s you?”
“Yeah…it’s me.”
The visitor smiled evilly and looked at Artemis, “It’s finally my turn…”
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and looked behind him in disbelief.
“It looks like the battle is over…”
“Yes.”
Arima Takamasa and Fujikawa Kari walked side by side in a messy construction site.
“At least two SSS-level battles,” Arima Takashi adjusted his glasses, “According to your intelligence, it should be a battle between Owl and the Organization.”
“Yes,” Xia Li frowned, “Although Jinmu gave me the news in time, it seems that he still didn’t catch up.”
“Normally speaking, a battle of this magnitude shouldn’t end so quickly.”
Arima Takashi squatted down and wiped up a trace of blood with his finger, “The blood on the ground has completely lost its vitality.”
“Ghoul blood has extremely strong coagulation activity. The stronger the ghoul is, the more RC cells there are in the blood, and the longer it takes for the blood to lose its activity.”
Mado Wuxu’s words flashed through his mind.
He and Arima Takashi exchanged glances.
Are there still humans fighting here?
wrong.
Don’t have any misunderstandings…
Could it be that the battle ended much earlier than we thought?
But this is obviously impossible…
You can’t fool people with street witnesses.
Besides, there is Kaneki…
What is going on
Although the distance from District 24 to District 20 is not far, it still takes time. Could it be that something unexpected happened when the two of them arrived?
Xia Li was in deep thought.
Takatsuki Izumi sat on the small sofa, looking at the oil painting in front of him in silence.
A black background and a dark blue cross symbolizing the dawn of hope hangs in the middle of the painting, sounding plaintive and weeping.
“That’s how it is.”
Duoduoliang swallowed his saliva and looked at the petite woman in front of him.
Their king, the one-eyed owl.
There was no expression on Takatsuki Izumi’s face, but her tense body and furrowed brows still revealed her uneasiness.
An SSS-level, important combat force in the plan, disappeared quietly.
In her analysis, the twelve main gods have at least twelve SSS-level combat capabilities, and perhaps the mysterious “king” is even stronger than that.
In her plan, even if Xia Li, Arima Takamasa, Yoshimura Kousen, and himself were included, even if Kaneki and Kamishiro Rize were barely added, it would probably not be able to shake V in the slightest.
12 to 6.
The gap is too big. Maybe there is someone in V who can fight two of them at once…
Then the chances of winning will be even smaller…
and
The guys in the dark…
Is that just the way it is?
Just like that, I avoided the sharp edge like a coward…living in the cracks…
Is this what they call the survival of the fittest?
ridiculous.
“You seem troubled… One-eyed Owl.”
Duo Duoliang turned around abruptly and stared at the guy in the shadows behind him as if he was facing a great enemy, “It’s you!”
“Yes, it’s me.”
The guy who walked out of the shadows was actually Arima Takamasa.
Takatsuki Izumi turned around and looked at the man behind him who was known as the Grim Reaper. “So… what do you want from me? Mr. Arima Takamasa, the Grim Reaper of CCG.”
“I came to see you… I have something very important to share with you… How about you come with me?”
Raising his chin frivolously, Arima Takashi placed the box in his hand on the round wooden table.
A familiar smell emanated from the box, and Takatsuki Izumi’s pupils shrank sharply.
In shock, Izumi Takatsuki did not notice that there was anything wrong with Arima Takamasa.
The smell inside… is it Yoshimura Kousen? !
What’s in this box? Is it Yoshimura Kousen’s body or his kagune?
“Who the hell are you?!”
Takatsuki Izumi took two steps back, but bumped into the leg of the table. Tadara spread out her kagune to protect her.
Another voice came from behind.
It’s Artemis.
“Yoshimura Kousen’s child… right?”
Artemis said, “Just come with us obediently.”
In a moment of distraction, the appearance of Arima Takamasa in front of him changed.
She turned into a young girl.
“Athena… you really have a bad taste…”
Artemis had a hint of smile in her eyes.
“It’s okay… I just want to test Arima Takamasa…”
“Forget it, it’s up to you,” she said, “Our goal is to take this father and daughter away.” The bow-like armor on her arm spread out, and a murderous intent surged out. “Just put them in the box!”
“Let’s go!” Realizing that something was wrong, Todorano turned around and attacked Artemis like crazy.
Forty-six (old version)
Known as the “strongest ghoul”, or at least the strongest ghoul on the surface, the SSS-level one-eyed Owl has never been a soft persimmon that can be easily bullied. At least Takatsuki Izumi himself has always believed so. Even if he was defeated by Organization V, he would not be forced to flee in such a miserable state.
But the reality slapped her hard in the face.
She had thought that even the V Organization’s sharp blade could never be much stronger than her as an SSS-level ghoul. On the contrary, as the strongest ghoul, she had been honing her combat skills and awareness for a long time, and had reached a level that ordinary ghouls could not understand. She even used the unique properties of her mixed-blood one-eye to perfectly condense all the RC cells in her body into ghoul bags for a short time, disguising herself as an ordinary human without being discovered by the CCG!
Such control!
But despite this, she found herself under siege from Artemis and Athena without even the slightest chance to fight back!
It s not that they are too strong. On the contrary, Artemis s fighting power is not very strong compared to Takatsuki Izumi, and is even slightly weaker!
What’s even more strange is that Athena, who is of the same level, gives Takatsuki Izumi a sense of danger that is no less than that of Artemis, and may even be more so.
During the fight, she fully noticed that although Athena was just standing there watching the show, her eyes were always looking at the flaws on her body!
Opportunities are always fleeting, but her judgment has never been wrong!
If the battle with Artemis was thrilling, then the battle with Athena on the other side was almost a battle in another dimension!
Constantly engaging in a battle of offense and defense with eyes and actions.
Takatsuki Izumi knew very well that if she relaxed even a little and revealed a flaw, Athena on the side would definitely give her a fatal blow!
This method of sweeping the enemy from one side is obviously far more effective than two people rushing up to attack at the same time!
Artemis was obviously very familiar with this kind of tactics, and she kept trying to create loopholes for Takatsuki Izumi, but she was discovered by Takatsuki Izumi every time and then chose a more secure way. In this way, she was only good at defense and not good at offense.
But this is exactly what Athena wants to see!
As we all know, the Yuhe ghouls focus more on explosive power and lack sustained combat capabilities. Although Takatsuki Izumi is already an SSS-level ghoul and some of his defects have been compensated, how can racial defects be overcome so easily?
Athena is indeed worthy of the title of goddess of wisdom…
No wonder Fangcun Gongshanhui…
During the fight, Takatsuki Izumi finally became anxious.
Now she faces a choice.
Fight to the death or wait for rescue!
Duoduoliang has successfully escaped under her protection, but even if he asks for help, it would probably only be useful if he finds those two people, right?
But in such an emergency situation, Duoduoliang obviously might not be able to find them and rush over in time. What’s worse is that since Athena is known as the goddess of wisdom, how could she not be prepared?
What if Arima Takashi or Fujikawa Kari really arrived and fell into Athena’s trap? Then all the new forces that can fight against the V Organization will be defeated in one fell swoop!
“bite–“
Using the kagune arm at the shoulder to block an arrow shot by Artemis, Takatsuki Izumi suddenly did a backflip to avoid Athena’s “death stare”, breathing slightly.
what to do
If I don’t make a decision now, I’m afraid if I delay any further I won’t even have the strength to resist!
If we really talk about fighting power alone, she is known for her explosive power. If she fights against Artemis in her prime, she can easily defeat or even kill him with thunderous force within ten minutes!
Although Athena gave her the feeling that she was a little stronger than Artemis, she didn’t think she could perform much better than Artemis in a one-on-one battle with her!
If Athena hadn’t been watching closely from the side, Artemis would have been lying on the ground long ago!
This is the confidence of being called the strongest!
Takatsuki Izumi roared in anger in his heart.
Seeing his physical strength decreasing, Takatsuki Izumi realized that he had to fight desperately, otherwise it might be too late…
It’s just a fight between trapped beasts…
Athena on the side sneered. Now it’s like fighting a trapped beast. Isn’t it a little late?
If she had ignored the consequences from the beginning and fought a desperate battle, trying to deal a fatal blow to Artemis, she would probably have had to take action, right?
As long as she makes a move, the momentum of the combined attack will be broken, and they will not be able to consume so much of Takatsuki Izumi’s physical strength and energy. Then, even if they can win this battle, it will probably be a miserable victory, and Takatsuki Izumi may even escape!
However, this so-called strongest ghoul really disappointed her.
Don’t you understand yet?
Arima Takashi was injured, and Fujikawa Kari…
Humph, he can’t be coming!
Athena, who thought her conspiracy had succeeded, suddenly felt a little uneasy.
Logically speaking, as a leader who grew up in a sea of ??blood and corpses, created an organization like the Bronze, and has always been vaguely hostile to “V”, how could he not think of these things?
At this point, not to mention that the wise Athena couldn’t understand why Takatsuki Izumi would hold on until now without showing any weakness by counterattacking, even Takatsuki Izumi himself didn’t quite understand why he made such a choice…
Whenever she couldn’t help but want to fight back, Xia Li’s face would always appear in front of her eyes.
“What on earth is wrong with me?”
The long battle finally made her mind a little distracted. The moment she was distracted, Takatsuki Izumi knew that something was wrong. The figure of Athena in the corner of her eye had indeed disappeared. She perfectly interpreted what it meant to “startle a rabbit from its virgin”!
The sharp blow was aimed directly at the weak spot in Takatsuki Izumi’s waist and ribs. This was a fatal blow that had been accumulated for a long time. The power can be imagined!
And Artemis in the front also seized the opportunity and took action!
Attack from both sides!
Takatsuki Izumi felt a chill in her heart, realizing that no matter how she calculated, she couldn’t perfectly block these two attacks. No matter which side she blocked, the other side would be seriously injured, which was enough to make her lose her ability to fight!
A dead end !!
Forty-Seven (Old Version)
“How interesting,” Xia Li moved his arm joints and stood up. “It seems that you are the maker of this tactical strategy… What a terrible opponent.” The Tiger Scorpion 2/2, which had not been used for a long time, had the kagune of SS+Yuhe Half-Kagure added after the doctor’s transformation. Smooth and graceful curves extended behind the gorgeous gauntlets, entwined around his shoulders like life. This Quinque was renamed “Fujikawa 3/1”. It was the first composite Quinque tailored for Xia Li by CCG. This Quinque had a breakthrough reform, and it could even rely on the user’s physical strength to briefly unfold a single wing of kagune with a width of 1.2 meters behind the shoulder!
After possessing this Quinque, Fujikawa Kari’s combat effectiveness has increased significantly again. She can even use a single wing for a short glide, which greatly increases her flexibility and maneuverability!
No wonder.
Athena looked at Xia Li who had folded up the Yuhe single wing on her right shoulder, her face becoming grim. “A new weapon of CCG? No wonder you were able to rush back so quickly after being transferred away by me…”
“It seems like it was you,” Xia Li rubbed her brows, “In the beginning, I was indeed played around by you… But the only thing you did wrong was to underestimate me.”
“!” As expected of Athena, she immediately understood what Fujikawa Kari meant.
Her tactic of deliberately setting up a confusing formation was indeed brilliant. The bloodstains at the scene successfully gave Fujikawa Kari an illusion, causing him to mistakenly believe that the other party wanted to lure him into the trap by “sieging Takatsuki Izumi” in order to achieve the goal of encircling and killing him, thus avoiding their siege and creating an opportunity for them to knock down Takatsuki Izumi. However, Athena was one step behind. She underestimated the meticulousness of Fujikawa Kari’s mind. In order to prevent Kari from seeing through the confusing formation, she left Kaneki Ken as a backup. If it was Arima Takasho, he would probably have fallen into the trap, but if it was Kari, she would have been alerted by Kaneki Ken’s weirdness.
The “V” organization’s intelligence did not include any information about Xia Li and Kaneki Ken’s acquaintance, so because of this small detail, she lost everything.
Artemis stood beside Athena, panting slightly, and looked at the man in front of her warily.
Takatsuki Izumi knelt on one knee on the ground, looking in a daze at the man in front of her who had blocked the fatal blow for her, and finally she was sure.
That s right!
It’s him!
The feeling I had before was not an illusion… the person I had been looking for for so long…
He finally showed up!
This time, Xia Li did not hesitate at all. With a flash of purple light in her eyes, she rushed towards the two opponents and arrived in front of them in the blink of an eye.
Drink !!!
The dark purple “Fujikawa 1/3” sword in his hand flashed with tremendous force, and Athena and Artemis leaped away to the left and right respectively, raising dust.
Fujikawa Kari stood there quietly, leaving a long sword mark on the ground, several meters long.
Takatsuki Izumi’s pupils suddenly shrank.
His sword skills have improved again!
Compared to his past, his path now is more resolute and determined, and his sword will be the sharpest as long as he remains unwavering!
Pursing his lips, Xia Li pushed the ground with his left leg and slashed towards Artemis on the left with the sword in his hand. He wanted to defeat the two of them quickly, so his first target was Artemis, whose physical strength was not very intact.
Artemis shouted, and her arms crossed into an X shape with horns surging, blocking Xia Li’s sword, but she was pushed back by a huge force and retreated repeatedly.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Athena burst out of her body with two scales from her back. With a “click”, they tore through the clothes behind her and stabbed at Xia Li’s back, making it clear that she was trying to save Zhao from Wei.
“snort.”
Xia Li snorted coldly, twisted her waist hard, and used the force of the long sword that was slashing at Artemis’ arms. A dark red stream suddenly emerged from her shoulder, and a gorgeous single wing instantly spread out!
His body twisted into a strange shape in the air, and his arms easily blocked Athena’s two scales. Sparks flew, but it turned out that the Quinque wrapped around his arms had powerful defensive capabilities!
“Bang!”
A fierce kick landed on Athena’s lower abdomen. She suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and then felt her throat being tightly gripped by a strong hand!
The whole world was spinning. Xia Li grabbed her slender neck and pulled her up without any mercy, then slammed her to the ground. The crisp sound of bones breaking was heard.
“puff–“
Athena spat out another mouthful of blood, gasping for breath on the ground, looking at the man on top of her in horror.
It’s so terrible!
It might be completely different from what I analyzed… The first target might be myself!
The two swords that attacked Artemis were probably just feints!
There are actually people who would spend so much energy to create a feint attack…If they are discovered, wouldn’t they lose their ability to fight immediately?
Athena was horrified by the man’s desperate fighting style, and for the first time she doubted her own wisdom.
Could it be that… this man has already seen through everything?
The petite body began to tremble under Xia Li, and it was unclear whether it was because of the pain in her body or the fear in her heart.
“ah–!!!”
Artemis madly attacked Xia Li, who was pressing Athena’s lower abdomen with her knee, but was forced to retreat again and again by a burst of Yuhe crystal thorns. She saw that it was Takatsuki Izumi who had almost recovered and spread out his Yuhe.
“The accounts between us…are not settled yet!”
Knowing she was no match for her opponent, Artemis turned around and fled in panic.
Xia Li looked at Athena, whose pretty face was pale, covered in blood and dying on the ground, sighed, and stopped Takatsuki Izumi who wanted to chase her.
“Quan… stop chasing me.”
The familiar tone made her shudder.
“You…” She turned her head and looked at Xia Li in disbelief.
“Yes…it’s me,” he said, “my memory…is back.”
Forty-Eight (Old Version)
It’s you.
Takatsuki Izumi sighed, “I started to guess from the first time I met you, because you two are so similar…”
“So you’ve already started plotting against me… including their deaths?”
Ishikawa Isamu… and Aoki Yumi.
Looking at his cold eyes, she already knew that she was wrong.
“Yeah.” She nodded reluctantly with bitter eyes, “In the past, you wouldn’t…”
“But I’m not the same person anymore,” Xia Li frowned angrily, “and you’re not the same person anymore.”
That one sentence seemed to have sentenced her to death.
Hmm
The injured Athena was whimpering and groaning on the ground, but no one paid attention to her at this time.
“It’s not that simple. Let me explain…”
“Don’t say any more,” Xia Li interrupted her, “I understand you and why you did this.” His words made her feel relieved, but she immediately felt worried again, “but that doesn’t mean I agree.”
She seemed to hear the relaxation in his tone and her eyes became hopeful.
After a long silence, he spoke again.
This time his tone was calm, and he seemed to have calmed down a lot. “I don’t want to think about these things now,” he rubbed his brows. “I will need your strength to fight against the organization next.” He was full of fatigue. “Intellectually speaking, you are right.”
Finally, I said the sentence I least wanted to admit.
Indeed, at the beginning, the revenge for the murder of his team by the “One-eyed Owl” supported him to hone himself madly, otherwise his strength would not have improved by leaps and bounds, and he would not have been able to be on par with Arima Takamasa in such a short period of time.
So, from the perspective of close friends and childhood sweethearts, there was nothing wrong with what Takatsuki Izumi did.
In this matter, she was just a little girl who longed for her best friend to come back.
Although this little girl’s riot was a disaster in itself.
Xia Li squatted down and carried Athena on her back. “Before that, take her back and keep her in good care.” Her eyes turned fierce. “She is still useful.”
V
District 24 organizes underground round table meeting room
At this time, two of the twelve seats were empty. Artemis, looking pale and exhausted, sat on the seat in a somewhat embarrassed manner, her face ashen.
She was in a bad mood at this moment because of Aphrodite’s ridicule.
The king of the gods sat on the first seat.
This mysterious man didn’t seem to have any emotion at all because of the failure of Athena and Artemis, but his clenched fists and unsightly expression still showed that he was not completely unmoved.
“Athena’s situation.”
He was brief and to the point.
But those who are familiar with “Wang” know that in this state, he has already taken this matter seriously.
Artemis stood up and bowed slightly. “She should be fine, but she has fallen into the hands of Fujikawa Kari and the one-eyed owl. I don’t know what they will do…”
“Hmph.” The “King” snorted coldly, and Artemis lowered her head in fear.
“…” There were intermittent knocking sounds on the round table, one after another, without any rhythm, but no one dared to say anything. This was the unique action of “Wang” when he was thinking about difficult things… The last time he was seen making this action was many years ago.
That time…
Fangcun’s defection.
No one took it seriously, but facts overturned everyone’s carelessness at the time and proved the reason for the “king’s” cautious attitude.
Thanks to his prudence, otherwise the chaos in the laboratory would have almost ruined “V’s” years of hard work.
After that incident, an SSS-class ghoul named “Swallowtail” rose rapidly, even to the point where he posed a threat to the organization, and finally touched the man behind the scenes.
That person…
Even though he was a man of deep thoughts, he couldn’t help but feel a little apprehensive.
Having reached the level of leader “V” and controlling almost the most terrifying force in the world, his vision is naturally extraordinary, but he has never been able to reach the level of that guy.
That is almost the realm of true “God”.
“Ares!” After thinking for a long time, he finally called out a name.
After shouting these three words, almost everyone’s expressions changed drastically.
Ares is almost the guy with the strongest frontal combat power besides the king…Except for the Big Three, Ares can almost win a one-on-one duel with any two of the Twelve Gods.
Although the three giants have a higher overall combat power than Ares, they can only remain undefeated in a head-on confrontation with them, while the “king” Zeus can only win a small victory.
“Hoo, hoo!” A burly figure stood up suddenly, “It’s my turn at last!” he shouted excitedly. After listening to Artemis’ report, Fujikawa Kari defeated the combined forces of her and Athena alone. At the beginning, her combination with Athena really gave him a headache for a while, and finally he had to break it up violently, but suffered serious injuries.
And when he knew that Fujikawa Kari defeated them both without any damage, his fighting spirit was ignited!!!
Forty-nine (old version)
Zone 1.
9:30 a.m.
“Tokyo is always full of people who are dying and in a daze. They repeat their actions like zombies, in a trance all day long, which is ridiculous.
But, my world was so simple back then.
You can get everything that ordinary people need without even spending any effort.
What are my beliefs?
I have asked myself this question before.
But when I truly understood my past self, I felt horrified by what I had done before.
No matter what, I never thought that my past self would be such a person.
Or, am I just like this?
That was my life before I became Fujikawa Kari, and it was so ridiculous.
I never imagined that “V”‘s ability was so strong that it could even change a person’s mind and control a person’s memory.
At the beginning, I was so easily played around and applauded by them.”
Squeak
The thick steel door was pushed open, revealing a neat and clean hall inside. The decoration inside the hall was extremely gorgeous, making people almost feel like they were in a palace.
Xia Li walked slowly into the door, and was not at all surprised to find Butler Fujikawa, whom she had not seen for a long time, standing beside her with a snow-white towel draped over his arm.
“Long time no see…Butler Fujikawa.” Xia Li sighed.
“Finally… he recovered his memory,” the butler also let out a long sigh, “Since that incident, I have been waiting here… waiting for the real young master to come back…”
Only the real Xia Li would remember this place and return to it.
“…” Xia Li’s lips moved slightly, but she hesitated to speak. After a long time, she said, “Thank you for your hard work.”
After that incident, in order to avoid the organization’s attention, he hid behind the scenes, using his own strength to contain the huge energy of the V organization, silently supporting himself, helping himself, and cleaning up for himself…
Old Butler Fujikawa…
“Master…” Butler Fujikawa put the towel on his arm over his shoulders and smiled softly, “Manager Fangcun has been placed here by us. He was seriously injured, but it’s not serious. He will recover soon. I have also been keeping track of the movements of Kirishima Touka and the Demon Ape Black Dog, who you are concerned about. There is no danger in the short term.”
Bang!
The inner door suddenly opened and a familiar figure rushed out.
At that moment, Xia Li’s eyes became wet.
That same familiar face…
“black “
His throat seemed to be choked and he could not utter anything other than this syllable.
The other person had a nonchalant and cynical smile on his face, and said uninhibitedly, “You have recovered your memory, but you are still as fussy as before.”
But his body was not as stiff as his tone. He walked up to him and gave him a big hug. “Welcome back.”
12:30am
CCG Headquarters Building
Special Office.
This is a regular meeting once a month.
Ever since Athena and Artemis were defeated this month, things have become strangely quiet. Logically, there is no reason for the V organization to be so silent after suffering such a provocation, but it is unexpectedly dead silent, as quiet as the calm before the storm.
This made everyone in CCG very uneasy. Even the exploration mission in Area 24 was delayed. General Arima was transferred back to the headquarters to guard the area, as if they were secretly guarding against something.
At the same time, He Xiuji and Marutesai were secretly arranging something every day, as if some important plan was being implemented.
And on this day, during the routine meeting, Arima Takashi suddenly stood up and raised the Quinque box in his hand.
Here I come.
He said so.
As soon as he finished speaking, the other special examinees didn’t even have time to ask questions before the huge floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the entire CCG conference room shattered with a loud bang, and debris filled the sky.
!!!!!!
Arima Takamasa calmly raised the Quinque and easily blocked all the glass shards. He also shook his hands casually, but his eyes had become heavy.
It seems that Director He Xiuji was right…
The purpose of the “V” organization… is to catch all the special investigators in one fell swoop at the special meeting once a month!
What a big appetite!
I just don’t know if they can swallow it…
Arima raised the corner of his lips in a cold arc. Do you think we investigators are fish on the chopping board for you to slaughter?
What a joke!
The other special class members looked at each other in shock.
Others don t know, but they know.
He Xiuji had already quietly replaced the huge floor-to-ceiling window of the conference room with bulletproof and riot-proof ultra-high fiber glass. None of them had the confidence to break it with one blow. The conference room was also located on a high floor. Although the special officers were confident that they could jump there with the help of Quink, it was obvious that no one could break the glass window with one leap in the air without any help.
not to mention–
Breaking through and smashing into pieces are totally different concepts!
The guy in front of me who is unharmed has definitely reached a terrifying level of combat power!
A middle-aged man dressed in ancient Greek style slowly stood up from his kneeling position, revealing his exaggerated muscles and bronze skin. He straightened the dark yellow metal helmet on his head and glanced at all the special investigators on the side.
Everyone who saw it felt a chill down their spine.
He easily spotted Arima Takashi who was standing proudly, and couldn’t help but burst into laughter, his voice as loud as thunder.
“Is that you? CCG’s Death God, Arima Takashi? The so-called strongest man?” He looked very excited. “I like to defeat those so-called strong men the most, then trample them under my feet and watch them struggle helplessly! I wonder… can you satisfy me?”
All the special agents couldn’t help but frown, and some of them who were so irritable were almost about to start cursing.
Arima Takamasa is a pillar of support in everyone’s hearts, how can we allow a guy of unknown origin to insult him like this?
The crowd was excited.
“Oh?” Arima adjusted his glasses calmly, “I’d like to learn from you.”
Fifty (old version)
“snort–!!”
Ares showed an excited smile, broke off a kagune spear from his waist, roared and rushed towards Arima Takamasa.
Arima calmly looked at the big man in front of him, until the spear of Ares was about to pierce his nose, he suddenly turned sideways, and the spear almost passed by his nose. The Mingshen in his hand drew a deadly arc and almost instantly passed through Ares’ lower abdomen, leaving a huge gap. Blood gushed out, staining the floor of the conference room red.
Arima Takamasa calmly took a step back, not letting any blood stain his silver leather coat.
Ares showed a shocked expression and looked down at the wound on his lower abdomen that was still bleeding, seeming a little bit unbelievable.
Then he started laughing crazily.
Hahahahahaha
Arima Takamasa frowned as he looked at Ares who was laughing wildly in front of him. He said nothing, but the IXA in his hand was put into a defensive posture, as if he was keenly aware of the changes in the big man in front of him.
The next moment, the laughter stopped abruptly, and a shadow suddenly attacked Arima Takasho. At the same moment, Arima Takasho also moved. After a few consecutive crisp and loud collision sounds, the two of them took a few steps back tacitly, and both sides looked a little horrified.
“Kerala…”
The extremely sturdy Kaihe Quinque followed Arima in his battles after he became famous. Even the powerful Quinque “IXA” that did not waver in front of the one-eyed Owl was actually covered with criss-crossing cracks!
The long spear in Ares’ hand also broke, which surprised him speechlessly!
“You are very strong…” He said bitterly, stepping back a little, “The order I received is to kill all the special investigators who attended the meeting today, but…”
He glanced at Arima Takashi and said, “With you in this meeting room, you definitely can’t do this…”
He took a deep breath.
“You’re pretty good.”
Arima Takamasa uttered these four words sparingly, and he was sincerely praising the big man in front of him.
In the martial arts world, different paths all lead to the same destination. Arima could clearly feel that the big man in front of him, while pursuing strength, still maintained a sincere and innocent heart, which was something that many CCG investigators could not do.
“…Thank you.” Ares obviously knew that the man in front of him who had a poker face was not a person who spoke nonsense, so he happily accepted his compliments and quickly adjusted his mentality. “You are stronger than me. I will work hard to become stronger. The next time I stand in front of you, I will definitely do my best to defeat you!”
“…” Arima’s eyes flashed with a dazzling white light, “I’m honored.”
Ares turned around and made a move to leave, but suddenly stopped, turned back and looked deeply at Arima Takamasa, then turned and left.
When he left, he stumbled and nearly fell. The investigators suddenly realized that he was seriously injured and regretted not catching up with him.
“No.” As if he knew what the investigators were thinking, Arima Kisho finally spoke, “Even if he is seriously injured, he is still not someone you can stop. Even if all of you go together, I’m afraid you won’t be able to stop him…”
As he was speaking, he suddenly started coughing and put his hand to cover his mouth.
As if he had taken a breath, his expression regained its composure, but only he knew that his clenched fists were full of blood.
Seeing the unwilling expressions of the special forces, he shook his head, “To keep that guy… unless I join forces with Fujikawa… even if it’s me, I can only severely injure and defeat him but can’t completely knock him down…”
As the backbone of the group, he certainly couldn’t say anything that would boost others’ morale and destroy his own prestige. In fact, their battle could only be considered a draw at best. Even if it was a real fight for life, Arima thought he only had a 60% chance of winning.
The Twelve Gods…
What a formidable opponent…
Arima smiled bitterly and walked away.
“Arima Takashi…?!”
Xia Li looked at Butler Fujikawa in shock.
“Yes,” the old butler nodded slightly, “According to the message from CCG, General Arima was injured after fighting an unknown ghoul during the special meeting. It is initially estimated that the opponent was the god of war, Ares, one of the ‘Twelve Gods’.”
Is Arima Takasho injured?
And he hasn’t left yet…
In Xia Li’s impression, Arima Takashi fought all his battles by defeating and killing his enemies with overwhelming force, and blasting them into pieces with the force of thunder. Arima Takashi, who always had a calm and composed expression, was actually… injured in a frontal battle?
Although Xia Li could barely reach the level of Arima Kisho when she revealed her trump card, in a real battle, Xia Li thought that her chance of defeating Arima was less than 40%!
Such a person as Arima Takasho…
There are actually opponents that even he can’t deal with?
“Don’t be so pessimistic…” Hei showed a mocking expression, “If the two of us join forces, I’m afraid Arima Kisho may not be able to deal with it? Then why should we be afraid of Ares, right… Shiro~”
Xia Li: “…”
Butler Fujikawa: ” “
How shameless!
The two of them couldn’t help but think so as they looked at Hei who was laughing wildly.
“But… if we really want to implement the plan, we can’t stay together all the time, and the organization can’t be just Ares alone.”
Hei couldn’t help but fall silent.
strength!
They need power! Power that can save everything… protect everything!
Fifty-one (old version)
Clang!
The sword and the kagune intersected. Logically speaking, even if the memory is lost, the things that were originally known should still be in the muscle memory and the subconscious of the brain. This can also explain why Xia Li was able to grow from a seemingly ordinary person to the second-in-command of CCG in a short period of time, a powerful existence second only to Arima Takasho. In fact, it was just the slow recovery of the body and brain’s combat memory. Now, if she wants to become stronger again, she has to challenge a completely new field. This is undoubtedly a severe test for Xia Li.
If Xia Li’s strength before recovering his memory was SSS level, then Xia Li’s combat power after recovering his memory is still SSS level, but now he can easily defeat his previous self. This is his strength after the combat skills in his memory were fully restored.
But
Not enough!
Clang!
The kagune and quinque met again, and Kuro looked coldly into Shiro’s eyes, “You can’t make any progress if you keep going like this,” he said. Although the organization has fought with CCG and was at a disadvantage, the scale of the battle will not expand before we intervene in this matter, because although CCG is a force that can resist V organization, they do not have an essential conflict of interests, and the reason why CCG joined forces with the other two forces is not to defeat V, but only to limit the harm of the two organizations to ordinary people. Therefore, CCG has no intention of being an enemy of V organization from the beginning.
“This time, Arima Kisho’s battle with the organization was just a simple statement of attitude. CCG will not be an enemy of your V organization, but don’t think that CCG is weak and can be bullied. If CCG must be eradicated, at least V organization will suffer heavy losses! Therefore,” Hei Da took a breath, “it is impossible to count on CCG! At least, in a short period of time, CCG is unlikely to have a head-on conflict with the organization! Even if CCG wants to destroy the organization, it will be a long time in the future!” He shook his light blue tail, leaving a few shallow marks on the ground, “As for revenge… we can only rely on ourselves, you have been used by CCG!”
Is this really the case
There is a horse…
dawn
Maru hand…
Did you guys… lie to me…
Just to take advantage of my power?
“Are you wavering ” Hei gave Xia Li a fierce blow, knocking him back several steps.
His counterattack gradually became weaker and weaker, and finally the Quinque sword in his hand was knocked away and stuck in the ground far away.
“…Are you all…lying to me?”
CCG
“You are so confused… you can’t make any progress! Go back to your CCG and come back to me when you figure it out!”
Hei said this coldly, turned and left without even looking at Xia Li who was kneeling on one knee.
Bai, you disappoint me so much.
I always thought that although you and I seem to have different personalities, we are the same at heart…but now it seems that I was wrong.
“Hei,” said the hoarse and old voice of old housekeeper Fujikawa, who stopped behind him, “Is there really no problem?”
“…Tsk,” Hei responded coldly, “He is my destined enemy… How could he fall so easily… Just watch.”
Stand up.
Otherwise you are not worthy to be my opponent…Bai.
And what is Bai, whom Hei is thinking about, doing now?
Walking on the street in a daze.
The box in my hand is so heavy…
This has never happened before…
What are you talking about… Quinque is the second life of the investigator…
Is this CCG again?
It turns out that I have completely merged with CCG without realizing it… Can I not live without CCG…
Are you really just… using me?
Or…
I touched my forehead and found that I had a high fever again.
What… I have become so fragile…
Finally found it…
I am truly alone…
Walking down the street, I didn’t even know where I was going…
Look at how embarrassed you are. It’s really embarrassing…
Finally, everything went black and he fell to the ground.
“Touka…what happened to you recently? You look very tired…”
As a close friend, Yiko is the one who can most easily detect the fatigue and pain hidden behind Touka’s forced smile. She really wants to know what’s wrong with her… but she really has no way to ask.
She was truly the strongest girl she had ever seen in such a long time…
“Nothing,” Dong Xiang smiled and shook her head, as if she was throwing some thoughts out of her head.
Ever since the last time… Furuma and Irumi hurriedly took her and Hinami away, they have never returned to Antique.
She once asked Sifang when she could go back, but Sifang looked gloomy.
After that, they never saw the store manager again. They felt uneasy but had to put on a smile…
Touka knew that at this time, even Hinami was holding back her sadness and not saying a word, so she had no right to show any sadness.
Another day passed, and she was in a daze walking from school to home when she suddenly remembered that her “home” was no longer an antique, and she couldn’t help but feel sad…
No matter how mature she is, she is just a high school girl…
A figure blocked her way.
The familiar grey crystal eyes stared at her with some guilt.
Kaneki Ken.
Her eyes widened in surprise, and just as she was about to say something, she was stopped by Kaneki.
“Ms. Dong Xiang…” he said, “I think the current situation… requires your presence…”
It has been a long time since he last dyed his hair. His originally black hair has gradually turned gray again. “About Mr. Fujikawa.”
Fifty-two (old version)
The woman ran away in fear.
“Why are you running away?”
The footsteps are getting closer.
The three of them supported each other and fled in a panic.
“You guys run! Leave the rest to me, I’ll stop them.” The girl stopped and shouted breathlessly.
“No, we can’t do that!”
If you stay… you will definitely die!
“Xia Li, calm down!”
“No!”
“Hei, take him away!” the girl pleaded, “Please.”
“Bai, calm down!”
So, we are running for our lives now?
ah–
Quan, you are actually asking Hei to drag me away…
This is not like you.
Aren’t you the woman destined to be at the top? You are gentle, casual, and a bit childish, but in such a situation, you actually uttered the word “please”!
Under normal circumstances, it would be hard to see you lowering your head.
But… I didn’t expect that the first time you gave in in front of me, you had such a ridiculous reason?
Looking into her crystal grey-green eyes, his words of refusal got stuck in his throat.
He saw the madness of suppressed desperation in her eyes, but he did not waver.
Even in the face of death, she did not waver in the slightest.
Am I really that important…
spring?
“Hey… let me ask you.”
“Hey, hey, don’t be distracted when you’re talking to me!”
“How about we practice the same pen spinning posture? Wouldn’t it look like we are in sync? Hehe~”
“Hey, I know you don’t like others pinching your face, but I’m not someone else – don’t have a stern face…”
“Xiao Li has a stern face all the time, which is really boring~ But I just like to bully Xiao Li like this “
Do you still remember the Sakura Festival we agreed to go to together?
Although there are corpses buried under the pink cherry trees…
Maybe it’s not the corpse, but the memory of the deceased? In the coming year, will the memories with blood and tears dye the cherry blossoms red after the season?
Quan!!!!!!!!!!!! a heart-wrenching cry rang out.
After coming to her senses, Xia Li found that she had been taken far away by the black belt.
Why is this happening
“Quan, she’s gone.” Hei said coldly.
Xia Li suddenly got up from the ground as if out of control and grabbed Hei’s collar fiercely.
“Why would you do this! Why would you do this… do this… but she is… but…”
A heavy slap landed on Xia Li’s face, leaving some bruises on his handsome face.
The slap obviously stunned Xia Li. He stared blankly at the cold-looking Hei in front of him.
“What is she? Your childhood sweetheart? A powerful force in the fight against the V organization? A pawn you used to cover your retreat? You used her feelings for you to cover your retreat. Don’t you think you are despicable now? I don’t believe that with your ability and personality, you would do such a thing as abandoning your comrades! I also don’t believe that you don’t even have the strength to break free from my restrictions and go back to find her!”
No…
That s not the case
Why is this happening
“Danger!” Just when he was distracted, Hei suddenly pushed him hard, waking him up, only to find that his entire throat was pierced by a huge spear.
No matter how strong the vitality of a ghoul is, if it receives such a serious injury in such a fatal part, it is obvious that it will die.
“black!!!!”
He stretched out his hand with bloodshot eyes, but was kicked away. Only then did he see the face of the attacker.
This one look is irreversible.
“Yoshimura Kousen!!!!!!! Haven’t you already quit the organization!!!”
He tried hard to concentrate and start his combat state, but to his surprise, the mental stance on which he depended for survival disappeared at this moment, and his strong mental fluctuations were like mud in the sea without causing a ripple.
“One day, you will become like this, a useless person!”
The voice that I heard faintly on the hospital bed seemed to ring in my ears again.
“You!…What did you do to me!?”
It seemed that he was destined not to get an answer.
Yoshimura Kousen smiled coldly and raised the Sweeper’s kagune.
The world stopped.
Is this… what I want?
Calmly looking at Fangcun Gongshan in front of him.
No, something’s wrong.
There’s something wrong here… or rather, everything that’s going on here…
Nothing is right.
“Why is this happening?”
Mado Akira tried her best not to cry out loud.
Shinohara Yukinori smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Everything was fine before…why did it become like this?
“He was discovered by a student from Kamii University,” said Shinohara Yukinori. “We really didn’t expect that now there are rumors that Fujikawa Tokushi and others actually…”
“Simply?”
Mado Akira frowned, “If we say we are fighting against two SSS-level ghouls, capturing one alive and repelling the other, I’m afraid Matt and the others won’t talk to us in such a tone, right?”
“What?” Shinohara Yukinori looked even more surprised than Madoka, “But the director told me that Fujikawa Tokuro fell ill from an old illness while fighting an SS+ ghoul.”
Mado Akira suddenly realized that he had accidentally let the secret slip.
Everyone can see how powerful Fujikawa Kari is. Many people also know that she forced herself to leave her sick bed and dragged her sick body to fight. This explanation is the most reasonable and acceptable.
Most people still cannot be informed of the affairs of the V organization, as that would cause panic among the masses.
As the saying goes, when you are concerned, you become confused. Mado Akira, who is usually known for his calmness, actually lost his mind in this situation. It seems that Fujikawa Tokudo has a close relationship with the blonde girl in front of him… I don’t know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing…
Yukinori Shinohara looked at Akira Mado with the eyes of someone who was coming over, but unfortunately Akira Mado was too distracted at the time to notice him, otherwise Yukinori Shinohara would have been in great trouble.
Fifty-three (old version)
In a critical situation, Xia Li remained calm.
First of all, I have no idea why I want to escape. It doesn’t make sense that I am still running away when I don’t even understand the reason.
Secondly, although it is correct to leave one person behind to buy time when the three are escaping, it does not apply to them.
Because if the enemy is so strong that even the three of them have to flee, there is no point in running away. It would be better for the three of them to stay and fight to the death, in which case both sides will die.
The third question.
Takatsuki Spring.
Even if she was running for her life, Takatsuki Izumi would never plead with Kuro. At most, she would just beg him to leave, but she would not do that.
The fourth question.
On the way to escape, Hei would never attack in such a crisis! And even if it was Yoshimura Gongshan, not to mention that he had no reason, he didn’t have the strength to give Hei such a fatal blow! Even if he was a sneak attack.
And his actions were strange too.
So, in this simple matter, everyone has problems, including himself!
Therefore, he made a bold assumption!
This world… is fake!!!!
“It’s not that simple,” Hei looked at Butler Fujikawa, “Shiro’s suggestion is very interesting. The Twelve Gods are not a monolithic group. At least as far as we know, they are divided into two factions. Zeus, the king of gods, and Hades, the god of the underworld, stand together, while Poseidon, the god of the sea, pretends to obey them but secretly disobeys them. Ares, the god of war, is the one with the strongest fighting power on the surface and chooses to stand on the side of Zeus, while Athena, Artemis and Hephaestus, the god of fire, stand with Poseidon. The Queen of Gods has a bad relationship with Zeus, and Hermes, the fence-sitter, has an ambiguous attitude. Aphrodite (Venus), the goddess of beauty, is not strong in fighting power. Apollo has died at the hands of Arima Takasho, and the whereabouts of Dionysus, the god of wine, is unknown.”
These are all the twelve gods that are visible. If they are manipulated properly as Bai said, it is not impossible to use the opponent’s force to defeat him. The strongest fortress is usually destroyed from the inside, isn’t it?
“feasible.”
After listening to all the plans in full, the old butler uttered these two words.
Plan, feasible.
Indeed, if they really had to clash head-on, the gap in combat power would be too big.
The only ones among them who are capable of fighting well are Izumi Takatsuki, Kousen Yoshimura, Kuro, Shiro, Arima Takamasa, and at most Ken Kaneki.
Even if Kamishiro Rize fully recovered her strength, she would not be able to join such a battle.
The old butler’s value does not lie in combat. Even if he is forced into battle, he can only be used as SS+ at best, which is a bit of a waste of talent. His value lies in intelligence and analysis. As the assistant of the biggest behind-the-scenes leader of the Fujikawa family, he has become extremely experienced and has a unique vision. He has saved people from danger countless times.
Hei firmly believed that, perhaps he didn’t know anything else, but when he and Bai escaped from the organization’s laboratory, following their blood relationship and finding the Fujikawa family was definitely the most correct choice they made.
The original plan made them both successful, but it also brought them a heavy burden. Perhaps only revenge and bloodbath could bring some relaxation to their hearts.
They never thought about what to do after their revenge was successful.
Because revenge on V and the destruction of such a huge organization are as far-fetched as the moon in the mirror, they can only support themselves through this and not let themselves fall.
This is their persistence and no one can change it.
After so many years of planning, and even nearly sacrificing Bai, who had shared life and death with them, they finally saw the dawn of hope. Under such circumstances, there must not be any more mistakes!
The Avenger “Dark Emperor” returns!
Bai, you are indeed better than me.
A sentence you said before you lost your memory can still be felt today. I have to praise your foresight…
“Although the organization’s influence is huge, it is too dispersed.” – Fujikawa Kari.
“What did you say?!”
The King of Gods was in a bad mood.
Recently, the market share of the European and American branches has shrunk rapidly, Dionysus of the South Asian branch was besieged and killed by unknown persons, and the Asian branch was completely destroyed!
The power of the “V” organization has shrunk by nearly 20% in just half a month!
As expected of a behemoth that has dominated for centuries, the organization quickly collected information about this enemy!
“the Avengers”.
This was the name of their enemy this time.
The enemy’s leader calls himself the “Dark Emperor” and his purpose is unclear. There are at least three SSS-level fighters in his organization, and they know V very well.
This is the result of their analysis.
The organization had just lost Athena and Apollo, and now lost Dionysus. This was undoubtedly a huge blow, and a quarter of the twelve gods were gone in an instant.
“Do you think it’s possible that it was those guys in Tokyo?”
Taking over the position that had always belonged to Athena, Hades loyally asked his question.
“No, that’s unlikely,” he immediately denied his idea. “The CCG guys have been under our surveillance. Arima Takashi has not made any unusual moves, and the so-called No. 2 figure Fujikawa Kari has been in a coma. CCG obviously doesn’t have the extra capacity to make some small moves…”
“Owl, One-Eye,” the King of the Gods looked a little gloomy. After carefully pondering the whole process and origin of the incident, he stood up suddenly, his eyes flashing with brilliance, “Go, help me book a flight to Tokyo, immediately!”
Fifty-four (old version)
Silence.
The whole street seemed to have lost all sound.
Snowflakes are drifting.
The man was walking quietly on the street holding an umbrella, leaving footprints of even depth on the snow on the ground.
Ding-ling-ling
The doorbell of the convenience store rang, and a woman hurried out, holding an armful of books, running hurriedly. The white mist she exhaled along the way blew away the drifting snowflakes.
The woman’s forehead hit the man’s chest hard, making a dull sound, and the books scattered all over the floor.
“Um… yes… I’m sorry.” The girl rubbed her forehead which was dizzy from the collision, and looked at the man she bumped into in a daze, but she bumped into a pair of familiar deep purple eyes.
My heart skipped a beat.
“Alas… I haven’t seen you for a long time, and you are still so reckless.”
There was a hint of smile in the man’s eyes. He reached out and picked up the mask. Under that was his usual gentle tone, “Well, forget it. I should say this is you.”
He bent down slightly and extended his hand to the girl on the ground, “Get up, the ground is cold.”
After reacting, Dong Xiang suddenly grabbed the man’s hand, and when she found that it was indeed the warm touch she had imagined, she breathed a sigh of relief. What followed was almost a storm.
She stood up suddenly, pulled him hard and ran forward.
“Huh?” Xia Li was dragged into a deep alley before she could even react.
“…” Dong Xiang looked around and made sure there was nothing unusual before turning around. “How dare you just wander around the street like this? Don’t you know that the organization is offering a global bounty of 300 million US dollars for you?”
She didn’t know about this at first, but she accidentally overheard the conversation between Sifang and the demon ape and learned that his situation was so dangerous.
“I thought you wouldn’t come to see me… I didn’t expect…” Dong Xiang turned away, not daring to look at his face, “Do you take yourself seriously? What if… What if…”
“There’s no such thing as an emergency,” his tone revealed a strong sense of confidence and he was in high spirits. He took off his mask, revealing his handsome face that had been hidden all along. “Before that, there is one important thing that has not been done,” he said.
“But…” Dong Xiang wanted to say something, but was suddenly blocked by the man.
Then there was a long, breathtaking kiss.
” You are mine.”
He said.
Dong Xiang was breathing slightly and looked at the man in front of her with a dazed look.
It is snowing heavily.
But the two hearts are so close that they can feel each other’s warmth.
Silent at this moment.
Noisy and bustling.
The winter night scene actually doesn t look that beautiful, but rather a bit desolate.
The snow has stopped.
Ouch!!
A silver Toyota sedan sped across the overpass, shaking off the snow on the leaves of a standing plant on one side.
“This is…Tokyo.”
This is the clock tower in District 7, a tourist attraction open every winter, but today there are only a few lonely figures, and it looks particularly lonely.
You can overlook most of Tokyo from the clock tower. Perhaps the scenery is beautiful for every ordinary person, but different people see different things.
“What I see here… is… the world.”
He just stood there, murmuring softly.
“Kaneki…” Kamishiro Rize tugged at Kaneki Ken’s sleeve and shrank back to hide behind him. “Look at that guy… He’s so weird…”
Huh? The man on the clock tower turned around and looked at Kamishiro Rize who was pointing her finger at him.
Crackling.
There seemed to be a flash of lightning in his deep blue eyes, and Kaneki Ken’s hair stood on end. He suddenly pushed down the man’s arm that Rize was pointing at, and his soft voice was full of warning, “Ms. Rize… please don’t point your finger at others, it’s very rude.”
As he said this, he gently squeezed Li Ze’s little hand, indicating to her that something was wrong.
However, Rize completely misunderstood.
Feeling Kaneki’s little movement, a blush flashed across Rize’s face, and she wondered if this blockhead had finally come to her senses?
Unfortunately, Kaneki Ken didn’t know that Kamishiro Rize behind him had so many little thoughts. He only knew that Kamishiro Rize had calmed down, and he thought she had understood, so he concentrated on facing the mysterious man in front of him.
The person in front of him gave him an unfathomable feeling… It was like… He was facing…
Mr. Fujikawa?
I don’t know why I suddenly thought of Fujikawa Kari, but Kaneki couldn’t help but compare him with the person opposite.
I don’t know… Mr. Fujikawa… how does he compare to this guy?
During the time he was distracted, the man had actually moved from the clock tower to in front of him. Kaneki reacted suddenly and broke out in a cold sweat.
The man in front of him gave him tremendous pressure, and his intuition gave him a strong sense of crisis: this man… is scary!
“Don’t be nervous,” the man in front of him smiled, “I didn’t expect that I could meet two SS-level figures just by strolling around… Tokyo has really been turbulent in recent years…”
“Who are you?” Jinmu still did not let down his guard. He stared at the man in front of him coldly, and his tone was not polite at all. “What can I do for you?”
As he said this, his kagune was ready to break out of his body at any moment.
The man in front of him brought too much pressure to him, and he was not sure if he could fight this man in front of him while protecting Rize.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean any harm, I was just rude,” the man bowed slightly, “My name is Jason, thank you for your guidance.”
Fifty-five (old version)
What… happened?
In fact…if the guy in front of him really wanted to kill them…I’m afraid they would both be lying on the ground now.
If Mr. Fujikawa wanted to knock him down… I’m afraid he wouldn’t even have time to react…
Kaneki, who had a deep understanding of Fujikawa Kari’s strength, thought that this guy in front of him might not be much worse than Mr. Fujikawa…
So
His expression gradually relaxed.
Although it seemed a little unreasonable, he believed what the young man in front of him said.
I believe he has no ill intentions.
“Kaneki Ken, the person behind me is Kamishiro Rize.” Kaneki said this, his tone no longer had the strong alertness at the beginning, but it still carried a cold taste that kept people at a distance.
“Ah, it’s really too abrupt,” Jason ruffled his golden hair, “It seems that there are many more bugs in Tokyo recently.”
As he finished speaking, five masked men in black suddenly appeared and surrounded the three people tightly.
The leader said to Jason in fluent Latin, “Please come back with us. You are causing us a lot of trouble.”
Kaneki obviously didn’t understand what that guy was saying, but when Jason shook his head and said “no” in Latin, he could still feel the tense atmosphere around him.
Jason smiled apologetically at Kaneki and said in Japanese, “I’m very sorry, I may have caused trouble for you, but considering the strength of the two SS-level players, it should be no problem for you to escape unscathed…”
Before he could finish his words, the leader of the men in black bared his fang-like kagune and attacked Kaneki Ken.
“Hassan!” Jason blocked Kaneki Ken’s attack and shouted angrily in Latin, “They are innocent! Don’t implicate the people of Japan!”
The leader known as “Hassan” made a hand gesture, and then four masked men approached at the same time.
At Jason’s signal, Kaneki Ken pulled Kamishiro Rize and turned away.
Jason turned around and faced the enemy, fighting one against five!
“This is?”
The boy caught the document thrown by the girl and looked through it in confusion. It contained his passport and mission instructions.
The name on the passport reads “Song Qingming.”
“This mission requires us to go to Tokyo, Japan.” The girl said, “This mission is very important… even our master has to go out in person… I don’t know what we are going to do.”
“Master?” Song Qingming’s handsome face showed a surprised expression, “Master, how many years has it been since he took action? Ever since Akainu was killed by Master alone, the whole of South China has been much more stable… But that happened more than ten years ago in my memory…”
“Yes, I didn’t expect that there would be another mission that would require Master to take action… The danger is self-evident, so you must not take it lightly.”
The girl’s soft tone carried the unique Jiangnan accent, gentle and charming, but unfortunately her face was obscured by the white veil and could not be seen. Song Qingming knew that the senior sister in front of him was definitely a great beauty, not only because of her title, but also because of the incident two years ago.
“What are you thinking about?” His senior sister interrupted his deep thoughts, “We are ready to set off.”
“Okay.” Song Qingming responded and stood up.
“Our mission is to explore the surrounding area and collect intelligence in advance. We must not act rashly before the master arrives.” The girl said, “This mission is dangerous because we must not only guard against our mission targets, but also be wary of the elites of other countries.”
“Other countries?” Song Qingming’s eyes flashed with a strange color, “It seems that many countries have come to wade into this muddy water this time… That’s right, after all, that thing is too attractive to all countries… As human beings, we can’t fall behind in such things… Although, I hate Japan.”
“There’s no need to say more. You should just focus on the mission.”
“Alright, alright,” Song Qingming waved his hand nonchalantly and flipped through the information in his hand, “Is this guy the target of our mission this time…”
The photo on the document in his hand was of Fujikawa Kari.
“He looks so gentle… He doesn’t look like what CCG described at all… He’s not trying to frame us…” Song Qingming muttered.
“No,” his senior sister said, “Japan is not yet capable of withstanding the wrath of other countries… Besides, if you were the leader of a country, would you be willing to use your capital, Kyoto, as the site of a war? If you had no other choice.”
Indeed, whether it was true or false, as soon as the news was released, Tokyo was doomed to be in chaos.
If the news from Tokyo CCG is true, then a world-class melee is inevitable.
The conflict between humans and ghouls cannot be resolved in a few words. It will eventually turn into a battle between top combatants…
In this case…
“This will make things interesting.” Marute Sai said, “Are you really okay…with this kind of pressure?”
He looked at Fujikawa Kari with some worry in his eyes, “For what’s coming next, even CCG can only help you to a limited extent…”
“It doesn’t matter.” Xia Li’s expression was still as calm as usual. “‘V’ won’t sit idly by… Under such circumstances, this is the best way I can deal with it. If there is any better way…”
“No, that won’t work,” He Xiuji shook his head, “This is our bottom line. CCG can’t ignore so many innocent civilians in Tokyo…”
“Yes,” Xia Li interrupted him, which was rare. He was always a polite child, so much so that He Xiujishi and Marutesai were stunned without reacting. “So I said it before,” he clenched his fists at his sides, “I have no choice.”
Looking at his departing back, the two of them sighed.
“We two old guys…are really useless…”
“Yeah… these young people shouldn’t shoulder such a heavy burden…”
Really
They both smiled bitterly and shook their heads.
Fifty-six (old version)
“Crack.” Kaneki Ken broke his index finger fiercely, the anger in his eyes almost drowning the two people opposite him.
Even when besieged by three people, he did not show any fear, and his expression did not change at all. However, after Kamishiro Rize’s arm was scratched by the third man’s kagune, he went berserk without any warning.
The three hideous red claws that had been damaged in the fierce battle suddenly closed together, then covered the shoulders and lower back, continuously spreading up and down, eventually covering most of the face, and leaving a long centipede tail behind the coccyx.
“you “
The two people opposite looked at each other in bewilderment. They were both SS-level, but not only were they unharmed under the siege of three people of equal strength, they even managed to kill one of them. At this moment they finally showed their ferocious fangs!
It’s not just double S-level combat power… Being a Half-He meant not only more violent power, but also terrifying combat instincts and doubled recovery abilities!
The reason why the Half-He is not as good as the He is simply that the Half-He cannot control his own reason…but the He can do it!
Some half-hers who are gifted and almost in perfect form can definitely compete with complete hers, but when these half-hers become hers, their combat capabilities will surpass those of ordinary hers by more than a little!
Obviously, Kaneki is this type!
Under such circumstances, the two opponents have already considered retreating.
“You must be joking…”
At the same time, Jason finally dealt with the two strongest people who stayed with him, and arrived with scars all over his body, just in time to encounter such a scene.
This guy… a runaway half-hero?
Jason was also surprised when he saw Kaneki’s look at this time.
Then I really miscalculated…
Jason thought so. He really didn’t expect that this seemingly SS-level ghoul was actually a terrifying figure who was not inferior to himself or even more terrifying.
Tokyo
There are truly crouching tigers, hidden dragons here.
So my purpose…
Jason frowned in worry.
If this is the case…
“here we go.”
A black opening against the wall.
“Hmm…” The old butler pondered and let out a long sigh.
The battle will soon begin… the days of unrest will soon begin…
No one can guarantee that they can live to see the sunrise tomorrow…
Even though he is the ultimate mastermind, I am afraid he cannot be sure that his plan is foolproof…
white
Are you sure you won’t die on the way?
Your idea is really dangerous…
What are you doing at this moment?
CCG District 1 Headquarters.
Arima Takashi picked up a cup of coffee.
“District 11 has already started.” He adjusted his glasses and said to Fujikawa Kari who was leaning on the sofa.
Fujikawa Kari held the coffee in his hand without saying a word. The porcelain cup in his palm had long lost its temperature, but his eyes were firm, without a trace of confusion.
“I’m about to implement your plan… I thought you would say something now.”
Arima Takamasa showed a somewhat amused expression.
“There is no such thing as inevitable success in this world…” Fujikawa Xiali put down the coffee cup in her hand, “I have been prepared for a long time… I am not prepared to turn back once I set out.”
” including amnesia?”
” including amnesia.”
If someone had told him before that he had rashly started a gamble with his own life and the lives of people he trusted long ago, he would have thought that person was a lunatic and a liar.
But now, he can truly understand his previous despair and madness.
Thankfully, this gamble paid off.
He won.
He even designed a plot of amnesia to deceive himself…
I had even fully anticipated my own reaction after losing my memory…
The word “so smart that he’s almost a demon” is completely unable to describe it.
In other words, the reactions, behaviors, thoughts, and everything that happens in the outside world after losing my memory are not coincidences, but are all arranged by my previous self…
This feeling made him feel creepy.
Although he has almost completely recovered his memory at this moment…
But he is totally different from who he was before.
Perhaps it was because some of his memories had been restored, and along with them some of his wisdom had returned as well, he was even able to perceive those things that had not yet returned, which he had already calculated before.
So in this situation, we can only choose to believe it!
After all, the person you can trust the most in this world is yourself.
Perhaps this idea has already been taken into account by the previous “Bai”.
This feeling… is really terrible.
He himself didn’t even realize… that he was… resisting his previous self.
This was something that “Bai” had not considered, a huge miscalculation.
It was this resistance that was preventing his memory from fully recovering.
There was a very important thing in the memory that had not been restored. Because Xia Li did not remember it, the whole thing was developing in an unpredictable direction…
However, no one knew at this time.
He stood up and picked up the Quinque box.
District 20.
Fujikawa’s house.
“…” After knocking on the door a few times, the expected silence echoed, and Dong Xiang showed a somewhat lonely expression.
As expected…he’s not here.
I don’t know why, but recently Dong Xiang has always felt deeply uneasy, and always feels that the man in her heart is gradually drifting away…
This feeling almost drove her crazy. She had to admit that women’s intuition was sometimes so accurate that it was terrifying.

What will happen?
