I heard that Two-dimensional is very good at whitening, so I came here

Because there was a considerable distance, and the vision was obscured by the heavy rain, the other party kept waving to make him mistakenly think that his mother was coming to pick him up, so his young self waved back excitedly, but when he got closer, he found that The front was completely empty, and that's probably when the dirt was being lured back into the house.

"...Is this completely unscientific? Is there any other way to tell if there are ghosts nearby besides looking directly with your eyes?"

"Although I really want to recommend props such as lilies and cats with different eyes, they are actually useless. I can only say that if I am targeted, I will have a certain... overflowing feeling that something is about to happen. .”

"Overfill?"

This not-so-commonly used word made Karenina look even more confused. Could it be that it refers to the illusion that the operating power of the body seems to increase by 20.00% after she is fully charged?

"For example, it's like a vase placed on the edge of a bookshelf, or a water surface that is higher than the mouth of a cup but does not overflow due to surface tension. You can foresee danger but the surroundings are very calm. At this time, you need to consider whether you are running into evil. gone."

"Your explanation is too vague! Can't you let the ghosts appear by themselves and I will hit them directly?"

"It's not impossible if you have to. For example, when you feel a strong sense of peeping when you wash your hair, normal people will definitely hint to yourself not to think wildly, but if you do the opposite, you will be firm because something is standing Stare at yourself in front of you, so you can see it with a high probability, but even so, you can’t do anything about the other party, usually physical means don’t work.”

Rosen gave the most common example, why old people often say that they believe in such strange things, but they don't believe it or not. In fact, it is based on the life experience derived from this principle. When you have a strong desire to see the other party, The barrier between the two will become weaker, and it is important to remember that...fear is also included in this willingness.

"It's so troublesome... Is it so hard for you to be a spiritual master?"

"For ordinary people, it is naturally out of sight, but I can see them. The denser the population, the more dead people, so after being constantly squeezed into the living space and unable to live normally, I can only clean it up. What's more, the high concentration of spirit bodies will also attract some pretty bad things."

"Then why don't you live in the suburbs?"

"It's not that simple. People like me can easily encounter ghosts and ghosts even in the wilderness. Those things usually subconsciously stay away from the city because they don't like light and noise. However, during the rapid expansion of urbanization in the 90s and [-]s , I’ve heard that people can run into each other in the city.”

Unless there are no more murders in the world, Rosen will inevitably die.

Being harassed by ghosts, if he had to choose a place where he could sleep peacefully, Rosen could only vote for Naiyazi's house girl's den, after all, there was only a void and all kinds of poverty left there. Shame figure, there is really not even half a ghost.

"It seems... I understand a little bit, but I guess I have to connect with you in order to know what the world looks like in your eyes."

After substituting the ghost into the infected body, Karenina seems to understand that there are a large number of domestic robots in human cities, so when the Pamish virus breaks out, the city becomes the most dangerous area, but the suburbs are not much better, because there may be Infected large-scale engineering robots are more dangerous after encountering them, so this guy has been surviving in this dangerous environment?

"Why did senior become the God's Chosen? Didn't the Goddess of Injustice say that it is not mandatory?"

Speaking of which, Rosen found that he didn't quite understand the motivation of the white-haired girl to become the God's Chosen. Her violent temper didn't seem like she would be coerced by Naiyako. Is it just because of a sense of justice to save other worlds?

"Actually, it's not a difficult thing to say. Do you still remember the collapse index of this world?"

"Hmm... 30%?"

"That's right, and the collapse index of the world I live in is as high as 60%, which means that civilization has a high probability of perishing, and it will cause "foreign objects" to invade other material worlds. In fact, I even suspect that the Pamish virus came from From somewhere else."

"For worlds with a collapse index of more than 50%, the administrators will carry out "removal" rather than "remedial". Simply put, it is to cut off the rotten leaves completely to prevent the pests from spreading to other branches and leaves, but I thought our world hadn't lost hope, so I made a deal with Nayako."

Karenina explained with a serious face that at her own expense, Naiyazi used the authority of the gods to temporarily close the world she was in, and did not allow any chosen ones to enter in order to buy time for human beings to save themselves.Of course, she also has a little selfishness, such as saving enough source quality to resurrect the crazy grandpa who died of virus infection, so that he can enjoy his old age in peace.

"So that's the case... Can you even do this kind of thing?"

Rosen nodded thoughtfully. Although it seemed very powerful to hear the goddess blowing water before, he actually didn't have any concept of the power of the gods.

"This time, Naiyazi used some tricks to force you to accept the mission. In fact, she wanted you to believe that what she said was true. That guy is usually a little unreliable, but it's not enough to prostitute her own God's Chosen. After you get back, you can make any request, if she dares to say no, I promise to beat her up for you, the kind that won't stop crying for three days and three nights."

In fact, Karenina has always felt very indebted to Rosen, because of her personality flaws, it is difficult to complete the task alone. Even though Naiyazi equipped her with the best body, she still had a head-on collision with the enemy in the previous missions. When it was destroyed, only the head with consciousness was left forcibly breaking away from the material world and fled back.

Therefore, in order to find a suitable partner for her, Naiyazi did not hesitate to mortgage the Kingdom of God and borrow usury from Shabu Nicholas to forcibly find Rosen who can complement her shortcomings. For the reward, he has to help repay the debt, so Karenina hopes that after the end of this mission, there will be enough surplus to compensate the other party.

"...I found out that the seniors always like to set up this kind of flag before every battle. If they can survive, they will go back to their hometown to get married, or they will retire after completing this mission. These people are usually the first to die."

"Are you purely superstitious, okay? And the big war you're talking about... Could it be that the higher-ups are finally ready to fight?"

"Well, in the early morning of the day after tomorrow, we started to attack the antique coffee shop in District 20, and crusade against all ghouls including the SSS-level "Immortal Owl". In fact, the CCG has already begun to evacuate residents these days, but Yoshimura Kozen seems completely I have no intention of running away, and I hid in the coffee shop with several other shop assistants."

Because he was worried that the injury of Rosen's left arm would affect the next battle, Marutesai came to the 20th district to visit him with great anxiety, and talked about the crusade against Kozen Yoshimura by the way.

The other party's actions are very puzzling. Facing the upcoming siege of CCG, he didn't react at all. Could it be that he thought that two of the "Xiao" had not been exposed, and wanted to die for the other person?Or simply because you feel that you have committed too many sins and don't want to live anymore?Judging from the previous conversations, Rosen felt that there was no such possibility. Anyway, no matter what the reason was, it was just a bait.

……

"It's finally the end of the road... Fangcun, no... Gongshan."

A group of mysterious people wearing black trench coats and white smiling masks appeared on the roof of the antique coffee shop, and their target seemed to have been expected, standing on the edge of the roof overlooking the familiar scenery in front of them.

"Are you here to deal with me...Mustard?"

Kozen Yoshimura raised his eyelids that had become slack due to aging, looked at the mysterious man in the head, and said the name that he had never forgotten, but he knew that the guy who was given the same name in front of him was no longer an old friend he knew well. People have died many years ago due to the exhaustion of their lifespan.

"Take care of you? How could that be the group of guys outside? This time I want to help you as a friend. After all, we have been friends for decades.

. "

Jiezi hypocritically said that he didn't believe it. Half-humans can't live to be 30 years old. This is the conclusion reached by the Hexiu family after years of experiments, so they changed another way of survival, using names instead of life to pass on.The Buddhist Order bestows fixed "titles" on the strongest members of collateral families, just like their own "mustard seeds", and there are also such names as Old Ta Sota and Arima Kisho.

"I'm doing fine now."

Kozen Fangcun paid no attention to the other party, just quietly feeling the tranquility before dawn, but this attitude of turning a blind eye obviously angered Akazi.

"This is your last chance... Tell me about that brat, and CCG will never disturb your peaceful retirement life again. You must know that your coffee shop has been exposed long ago, and there has always been a difficult person in the bureau who wants to To trouble you, I helped you suppress his search applications more than a dozen times, so you can tell who is close and who is far away at a glance, right?"

"Brat? What do you mean?"

"Hey, don't pretend to be stupid now, it's the "One-Eyed Owl", can you tell at a glance that you are related by blood? It's all because of the bronze tree. The order we have maintained for many years has to be seen. Paul, that guy is your betrayal of "V"."

Mustard learned the whole story from the materials left over from the previous generation. Kozen Yoshimura was originally just a ghoul wandering around like a wild dog, but he became extremely powerful by constantly sharing ghouls and hunting humans, so he was also known at the time. The mustard seed was recruited into the V organization in charge of dealing with the dark side affairs, and became a liquidator for the Hexiu family to eliminate dissidents.

However, Fangcun Gongshan ran into and fell in love with a human being in a coffee shop, and the other party was actually a reporter secretly investigating the inside story of the Hexiu family, so the organization asked him to deal with his wife, and Fangcun Gongshan did as well.

Originally, the matter should have ended here, but Kazuko never imagined that a one-eyed king who commanded the "Bronze Tree" and continued to destroy the existing order would emerge now, and the opponent was the one that Kozen Yoshimura and his human wife met back then. The one-eyed ghoul born.

"This is an ultimatum... Hand over that guy, this is the only way for you to survive, don't let me say it so many times."

"I don't know what 'One-Eyed Owl' is, and I don't have any children."

Fangcun Gong replied indifferently, still overlooking the street not far away, watching the armored vehicles passing through the night surrounded by antique coffee shops, almost half of the CCG's elite investigators appeared in District 20, these People come here to take their own lives.

"Really? Then die here, Gong Shan, you are already a turtle in a urn with nowhere to escape."

Annoyed and furious, Jiezi threw down a cruel sentence, and disappeared on the rooftop with the rest of the V organization members. He couldn't believe that "One-Eyed Owl" watched his father being beaten to the brink of death and could not show his face. Now these people are just Appetizers only.

Chapter 126 Chapter.122 "Antique" crusade

"Shop Manager, I have cleaned the store until it shines. This is the special cleaning service of the Demon Ape."

"All the documents have also been processed."

Gu Jianyuan cleaned the antique coffee shop that was about to close down, hoping that this small shop that she had worked for ten years would end decently, and Nirami Xuan, who was next to her, also nodded. All identity information was burned to prevent ccg from investigating any clues from the "goods" entry and exit records and the communication number of the day.

"Thank you, please drink."

Fangcun Gongzen showed a kind smile as always, and sat down with four cups of coffee on the plate. He himself used an antique western cup, which was the most commonly used object of his wife, and he had kept it carefully all these years.

"Hey, the coffee made by the manager himself, I have been waiting for a long time."

"thank you very much."

"...It feels like the store has become deserted, Kaneki-kun...don't you regret staying?"

After responding to the two employees with a smile and a nod, Koyo Yoshimura focused his gaze on Ken Kaneki, who seemed to be wandering away. With a calm look on his face.

"Well, I have no other place to go. From the beginning, "Antique" took me in, and at the end of "Antique" is a choice that follows my heart."

Kaneki Ken’s idea is very simple, his parents have already passed away, and because he became a ghoul and was wanted by CCG, he can’t return to human society, and he used to be a human being is also incompatible with ordinary ghouls, so why not stay in this coffee shop The store awaits the arrival of the final judgment.

"Mr. Fangcun, we will follow you to the end."

"We've been waiting for this day for a long time. What's the point of dissatisfaction after living ten years longer? It's just Mr. Xuandu..."

Until the end, the only thing that Nyu Jianxuan was worried about was Kirishima Xuanto, who was entrusted to her by Dong Xiang. One night a week ago, the other party suddenly disappeared in the room without even leaving a half message. Not far away, it was more like being kidnapped by someone.

"There is no need to blame yourself, that child... We have tried our best, but if possible, I hope you can escape, Mr. Jin Mu. You are different from us. Your hands... have never been stained with blood."

Yoshimura Kozen's original intention was just not to want to be a half-ghoul

If Kaneki Ken is taken back by CCG one day, he chooses to stand on the opposite side of the ghouls, hoping that he can understand them as a human being and affect more people, but he never thought that he would still be unable to protect him.

"Yeah, Jin Mu, you shouldn't end up like us sinners."

"Although there are many investigators outside, we can still cover you and rush out of the encirclement."

Since meeting Mr. Fangcun ten years ago and being taught by him, Gujian Yuan'er and Ru Jianxuan have gradually understood the significance of what they have done so far...the unforgivable felony that has deprived countless lives, but the change of mood is not the same. It means that sins can be eliminated, as if people who died after a million apologies can't come back to life, they must accept punishment.

"No...Thank you for your concern, but I don't want to do nothing anymore."

Kaneki Ken smiled flatly, he knew that with his current strength he could not change anything, but he knew better that if he chose to stand by and do nothing, he would definitely regret this choice.

……

"Except for Chief Anpu and Chief Haizaki who stayed behind at the headquarters, the others, including Chief Shinohara, whose injuries are not yet fully recovered, are here. Is the 'Owl' really as strong as rumored this time?"

Takizawa Masamichi, who set up a blockade near the antique coffee shop, felt that his nerves had been stretched to the extreme. Although he and Mado Akira were graduates at the same period, because of his weak personality, he had been assigned by Xiangsuke of Shangjuji Temple. Some clerical jobs have never had actual combat with ghouls. This time, it is a crusade against SSS-level ghouls, which is too exciting.

"So-so, haven't you been looking forward to the actual combat for a long time? Don't be nervous, this time it's time for you to show off your skills, Takizawa Second Class, let that Mado Akatsuki, who is always above the top, see your true strength."

Lawson next to him not only did not comfort the other party, but turned into a pressure monster to exert pressure crazily. In his opinion, the other party was completely unsuitable for the job of fighting and killing. There was no blood feud between family harmony and ghouls, and the growth process was smooth. The top students will become investigators only because the social status of this profession is high enough and decent.

"Don't...don't underestimate me! My grades in the practical test were not bad when I graduated!"

Takizawa Masamichi could easily hear the other party's ridicule, and stammered to defend himself, but he clenched Quinke's hands a little trembling, making people doubt its hit rate. It is worth mentioning that this "Tongfei" is a Yuhelian crossbow with a grade of only C, and its shooting power is equivalent to that of ordinary Hezi bullets.

"Is that so? Then you follow me to the front line of the crusade against the 'Owl', which just happens to lack a remote output."

"Uh... that... I'll let it go?"

Takizawa Masamichi, who was constantly being squeezed by someone, showed a look of embarrassment, and he was a little self-aware of how much he was.

"Mr. Rosen, don't make fun of him. Takizawa was assigned to the same team as me, and was only responsible for the guard work on the periphery."

Amon Kotaro, who couldn't stand watching, finally couldn't help but uttered a voice to save him. Low-level ghoul investigators like them can only go to the fourth team to do odd jobs, and theoretically they will not encounter any danger.

"It's just a joke. If you really do this, you will be scolded in Hokkien by the deputy chief of Fasi."

Rosen replied half-truthfully. He knew who was actually the target of this crusade, so the possibility that the battle site would be invaded by the "Bronze Tree" could not be ruled out. There is no danger, but the first unit, which gathers many special and quasi-special investigators, is safer. Of course, this is just a guess, and the fact may be the opposite.

"I remembered, isn't Mr. Rosen from the first team? Why are you here?"

"The plan has changed. They are responsible for consuming the energy of the 'Owl' first. I need to clean up the pests before the decisive victory."

Rosen, who looked up at the nearby buildings, could clearly see hundreds of black smoke columns formed by catastrophe floating towards the sky, and there were many individuals with strong resentment among them. I am afraid that the first round of the Antique Crusade was not just a crusade against the Unkillable Owl So simple.

Chapter 127 Chapter.123 "Magic Ape" & "Black Dog"

"Shinohara, are you ready?"

Wearing the armored Quinker, Hei Panyan once again confirmed to his partner that this was his third face-to-face battle with "Owl", and it was also a battle to the death. Before the battle, he had written a suicide note for The son who is still studying at the Investigator Academy, if something unfortunate happens, I hope he can inherit his legacy and protect more people from the ghouls.

"Well, this set of 'new' readjusted by Dr. Earth Walk should be enough to withstand the attack of 'Owl', but the task of the output hand needs to be entrusted to Karenina."

Shinohara Yuki patted the pitch-black armor on his body and said with a smile, after the incident of Quink's backlash last time, Dixing A and B re-adjusted the "new" scheduling strategy, no longer focusing on increasing the ability of physical fitness, but instead More inclined to stack their own defensive attributes.

This kind of compromise actually made Shinohara feel very guilty. Young people who are not as old as Lawson can turn on Quink's overload mode for a long time, and after the increase, they still can't do any effective damage to "Owl". Now he can only act as an iron can and stand in front to absorb the damage, so he is determined to block the enemy's advance even if he risks his life.

attack.

"Just smash it, right? It's such an easy thing to do."

Seeing the inexplicable fighting spirit in the eyes of the two uncles in front of her, Karenina resisted the heavy hammer and said helplessly. Originally, this matter should be handled by her partner, but the uncle in the middle is not sure if his brain is convulsed again. , He was temporarily transferred to some kind of mobile team, now I just hope that Rosen's hands and feet can be quicker, otherwise he will kill Xiao himself when he rushes back.

"Master Director, our first team is ready."

Faji Xiangsuke, who was in charge of the team's command, turned to the boss behind him and reported that the antiquity crusade was personally directed by the director of the Ghoul Countermeasure Bureau and Xiu Jishi, so all the investigators present were tense and maintained their best state of concentration .

"It's about time, so... the battle begins!"

He nodded with Xiujishi, but there was still no news from Jiezi. It must be that Kozen Yoshimura was unwilling to hand over his child. In this case, he didn't have to think about the old feelings anymore. Thinking of this, he pointed his right arm to the distance The coffee shop less than 694.936135 meters away loudly gave the order to attack. (Month. Feiqun [-])

"Break in! Break into the enemy's formation, give me all of them!"

Holding a submachine gun, Marutesai yelled like a bandit and shot forward. Of course... this is actually just a strategy to boost morale. His two subordinates, who have a WAIS IQ of 150 and a processing speed of PSI, will implement the instructions in real time. Personally, dynamically allocate combat power to ensure one's own advantage.

"welcome."

Two figures leaped down from the roof of the coffee shop and rushed into the team of investigators as if they were in no one's land. For a moment, the sound of bones being broken and flesh being cut open was accompanied by shrill screams.

The female ghoul wearing a Doberman pinscher mask used her super-high mobility to quickly move through the crowd, spreading her feathers and quickly cutting through the human body like a sharp blade. Many investigators even separated the corpses of the enemy without seeing them clearly.

The snow apes in white down jackets won with strength and skill. With the help of the catapult launched instantly by Wei He, the second and third teams who surrounded them were knocked off their feet. The investigators did not dare to attack casually for fear of hurting their teammates.

"It's 'Magic Ape' and 'Black Dog'! Why are they here?"

Some experienced investigators immediately recognized the enemy as the two SS-level ghouls who caused the destruction of the 20th district ten years ago. At that time, the battle between the two ghoul organizations even made this place the worst place in Tokyo. One of the areas, until one day the two sides disappeared inexplicably as if the world had evaporated, and now the first thing they did when they reappeared was to kill.
