Ghoul: From Being Sentenced to Death

Qingsi High School.

A short-haired female student was observing in the corridor, with a slight smile on her face, exuding a relaxed and happy atmosphere.

Because her good friend Dongzi had returned to school.

"Dongzi, you haven't been to school for a long time recently, and I have to go through a lot of homework... Do you want me to give you extra lessons?"

The girl named Dongzi has long brown hair and obvious dark circles around her eyes."No... I may have to drop out of school"

"Drop out of school?! Why? Did someone bully you? Or what?"

"No...no...I need to go home to keep vigil." Dongzi couldn't stop her tears from flowing, and her voice was filled with a heavy accent.

"What happened to your family? Are you going to give up your studies?……"

"My family...are all...dead...I'm sorry I can't go to school with you anymore."

"Is that so... I'll take a leave to help you." Hei Yu Ningzi replied in a low voice, holding something in both hands to comfort the other person.

"Thank you very much! My best friend"

————————

"what's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I just came to see you. You haven't been doing well lately." Misaki Aika twirled her hair in her hands and said softly.

"It's really not good. I'm exhausted both physically and mentally." Hui Qi shrugged his shoulders, his tone mixed with negative emotions.

"I'll make you some coffee, I hope it helps."

Seeing Misaki Aika busying around, Hui Qi couldn't help but smile. It felt good to have a good friend taking care of her.

Beep, beep...

The phone in the office suddenly rang.

"Hello? What's up?"

"Mr. Huiqi, there is a girl at the front desk reporting a ghoul"

"Let Kotaro Amon handle it."

"Uh... Inspector Yamon isn't here."

"Let the other investigators handle it."

"Can I help you find other investigators?" The receptionist looked at the girl in front of her.

"No, no! I want the best investigator in District 20!"

Hui Qi was silent on the other end of the phone. He could hear the little girl's voice clearly.

"Mr. Huiqi?"

The receptionist called tentatively into the phone.

"I'll be down right away."

Hui Qi replied helplessly. Since it was a ghoul incident, he had to take responsibility. It was a good opportunity to see what the other party was confident of.

Downstairs.

The little girl's face was full of anxiety, and her hands were fiddling with the hem of her skirt.

"Don't worry, Special Investigator Hui Qi will be here soon. As long as he takes action, your problem will be solved.

Seeing the little girl so anxious, the receptionist couldn't help but comfort her.

"Really? To be honest, I didn't want to do this. I knew I was being unreasonable... But I saw my classmate kill another classmate!"

"Oh? Did it happen at school?"

Hui Qi looked at the girl, who was wearing high school clothes and looked like a high school student.

"No... No, I followed her secretly because I had long suspected that Fuyuko was a ghoul."

"Follow me? Where to? Dongzi? Let’s talk while we walk." Huiqi took the girl to his car.

"Yes... I overheard the other day that Dongzi had been on leave for a long time. According to my research, the time of his leave was just in line with CCG's previous publicity."

"What publicity?"

"It was the time when CCG urged people to go home early and sent more people.

The girl looked at Hui Qi with suspicion.

"Huh? The time of the 10th District Expulsion War." Hui Qi's tone was somewhat speechless. How could he understand the logistics when he was only responsible for the front-line battles? Besides, the schedule was too tight and Hui Qi had hardly watched TV.

"What is the 10th District Expulsion War?"

The girl looked at Hui Qi in confusion. She had never heard of what he said just now.

"It's the time you mentioned when people should go home early. That's when our investigators are fighting ghouls in District 10. CCG is afraid that some of them might escape and harm others, so they ask you not to walk at night."

"Oh, that's it! He is indeed the most powerful investigator in District 20."The girl suddenly realized and looked at Hui Qi excitedly, with her eyes full of curiosity.

"So you spent so much time at the front desk just to ask me to handle this matter. I guess it would be enough to just assign a third-class search officer."

"No, no! It has to be you! I don't trust anyone else!"

Seeing the girl shaking her head, Hui Qi bared his teeth.

"Is that the place you mentioned?"

Hearing that, the girl looked at the house in front of her that was filled with white letters."Yes! Should we sneak in?"

"What are you lurking for? Why are you doing unnecessary things?"Hui Qi looked at the girl in confusion.

"That's what the male protagonists on TV do."

"…"

Hearing this, Huiqi stopped talking decisively. This kid has watched too many TV dramas and can't explain it clearly.

Looking at the black and white house in front of him, Huiqi found the door and pushed it open without hesitation.

"Aren't you the best investigator? Why did you barge in so brazenly? Aren't you going to investigate?"

The girl's question echoed in her ears. Huiqi was too lazy to answer. According to the information provided by the girl, the ghoul was at most A-level. If it was S or SS-level, Huiqi would consider doing a preliminary investigation.

Click.

Pushing open the door, the first thing she saw was blood all over the room. You could vaguely see white cloth from the blood.

"Ahh...

"The ghoul's name is Fuyuko, right? So her full name is Anjing Fuyuko." Huiqi's tone became colder. Using the body parts of living people as funeral objects, these damn ghouls...

"Yes, yes...the one who was killed was called Kuroba Neiko……"

As Huiqi picked up the white cloth, he could vaguely tell it was a school uniform, and the style was similar to the girl behind him. He also found a nameplate on the upper body of the clothes.

Name: Kuroba Ningzi

Grade: Second grade, ordinary second class

School: Qingsi High School

"The victim's remaining clothing was confirmed"

"The victim's blood has been collected."

After finishing the things on hand, Hui Qi looked at the rest of the house and prepared to explore them one by one.

"Dongzi brought back new food? We have to leave in two days, otherwise we will be easily tracked down by the investigators."
