Ghoul: From Being Sentenced to Death

"Impression? Tell me in detail."

Hui Qi's eyes showed some curiosity.

"Emmmm...their...leader...should...probably have brown hair? Looks like a caterpillar bread……"Misaki Aika spoke intermittently, her brows furrowed tightly as if the information was very old.

"Brown hair...hair is caterpillar bread...this range is really not small."Hui Qi was a little amused. Although he didn't expect to hear any useful information, this was too abstract.

"It was a long time ago... probably the news from my teacher in charge."

Misaki Aika looked a little shy, and then she realized that her news was too wide. Nowadays, non-mainstream hairstyles are popular among students, and there are many with caterpillar hair.

"Although the message is too broad, it can also serve as an entry point……"Huiqi casually wrote the words brown hair and caterpillar on the paper.

"Yes! I'm very happy to be able to help Huiqite!"

"Thank you Misaki for the information. If I can catch the leader of the Ape Demon Organization, I will report it to my superiors."

Hui Qi raised the information in his hand and replied with a smile.

It was late at night.……

"Hehe, um, hehe… I used to have a little toy, but now it has rebelled against itself. It’s like twisting its head off and holding it in my arms.

In the endless darkness, the soft voice echoed slowly like a stream of clear water. The melody was pleasant to the ears, but the weird lyrics only made people feel endless fear.

"Have you found Shuriye?"

A cold voice interrupted the singing in the darkness, but the owner of the singing was not angry. He just paused for a moment and then answered."No, I don't know where he escaped to. Doesn't CCG have any news about him?"

"……He was assigned to Area 20.

The male voice in the darkness did not answer directly, but instead threw out another message.

"District 20, hehehehe... do you want to meet this cute toy? I really want to eat him.……"

"Be careful, he is not an ordinary investigator... his strength is more like... half-human"

"Half-human? Has he changed too... I can't help it, hahahahahahahaha"

"Take care of yourself."

The man left these four words and disappeared.

"District 20... It's such a disgusting place, so Mr. Toy, please come to another district to play... Hehehe."

Along with the last word, a small figure slowly walked out of the darkness. The other person was wrapped in white bandages without any exposed skin, and he wore a white faceless mask on his face.

The next day.

Hui Qi was taking a nap in the office. The table was messy with various documents, all of which were edited with the words"Suspicious Person in District 20".

Knock, knock, knock!

Suddenly a knock on the door broke the silence.

After a while, Hui Qi came to his senses and shouted at the door,"Come in."

Squeak!……

"Huiqi, Senior Mado and I found two ghouls in Area 13, one of which was an S-rank gecko but we let it escape.……"

Yamon Kotaro held the report in his hand and reported it word by word until he had finished telling all the recent intelligence.

"Why did he let the gecko run away? How could Mado Wuxu make such a mistake?" Huiqi looked at Amon Kotaro in confusion. Mado Wuxu's strength was enough to take down the gecko, but why didn't he catch it? Amon Kotaro showed some embarrassment on his face when he heard Huiqi's question. The question really hit the key point, which was why Mado Wuxu asked Amon Kotaro to make a report.

CCG has a clear rule that when the branch has a special investigator, its ghoul information must be reported to the special investigator, and the special investigator will make the final choice.

Mado Wuxu, who is still a top-ranked officer, enjoys freedom but also has to abide by the rules.

Huiqi looked at Amon Kotaro, who seemed to be hesitant to speak and his expression was not right, and his hands were making small movements more frequently.

"Don't waste time... Tell me quickly, what has that old man done again?"

"No...no, it was just that Mado-senpai's Quinque was broken during the battle, and then...then Gekko escaped." Amon Kotaro answered nervously. When he saw that situation, Amon Kotaro himself was also stunned. He never thought that Quinque would be destroyed.

"Broken? Why is that old guy modifying Quinque on his own again? He only makes some inferior products and is not afraid of dying in his hands."

After listening to what Yamon Kotaro said, Huiqi couldn't help complaining. This kind of thing happened more than once. At first, Huiqi scolded Zhenhu Wuxu's behavior, but he just didn't listen and continued to do his own thing. Now he is not even present to let the students come.

"Okay, go now. When you go back and see Zhenhu Wuxu, tell him that if something like this happens again, get out of here and don't let me do it myself."

"……This." Yamon Kotaro looked embarrassed. He was only a second-class investigator and there was no way he could say such a thing. Special Officer Huiqi might have some other relationship with Mado Wuxu, so he would say such a thing. And he had just joined CCG not long ago.

"Forget it... I don't need you anymore." Hui Qi picked up her phone and typed on the screen.

Seeing this, Yamon Kotaro breathed a sigh of relief and his expression relaxed. Then he turned the door of the office and quietly left.

Click.

The office door was closed.

"Excuse me...are you Investigator Yamon?"

"Hmm? Yes, I am."

A figure suddenly appeared behind Yamon Kotaro, and when he turned around, he saw that it was a logistics staff.

‘Such a familiar face... Could it be? 'Amon Kotaro gradually fell into a state of recollection, trying to find clues from his past memories, until he recalled his life at CCG Academy, and a figure in his mind overlapped with the person in front of him.

"Misaki…senpai?"

"I recognized you! I heard that I haven't had the chance to see you since you were assigned to Area 20, but now I can see you."Misaki's eyes were filled with surprise. The two knew each other when they were in CCG Academy, but it wasn't long before Misaki Aika graduated and joined CCG.

"Well, how are you doing? It's been so long."

"Fortunately, how are you? I heard that you are working on the front line." Misaki looked at the suitcase in Amon Kotaro's hand curiously.

"I was lucky to meet Mado-senpai and Huiqi-senpai. I learned a lot."

The two who hadn't seen each other for a long time talked about the past at the door. However, as time passed, Amon Kotaro, who was talking happily, suddenly thought of something and ran out anxiously.

Seeing this scene, Misaki couldn't help but tilt her head, muttered something in a strange tone, and then knocked on Huiqi's office door and walked in.

"Huiqi, this is your coffee."

"I remember I didn't order cold coffee." Huiqi looked at the coffee brought by Misaki and couldn't help but say it subconsciously

""Ah?! Sorry! Sorry! I just met Amon and talked to him, and I forgot about the coffee..."

Misaki took the coffee back in a panic, stammering as she explained.
