The Daily Life of Ultimate Creatures in Tokyo

"Kaneki, what do you mean by not going back to the Stable District? Explain yourself clearly!"

In the woods, when everyone heard that Kaneki would not go back, Touka had the biggest reaction.

Everyone finally found Kaneki. Bai Ge was so busy that he revealed his identity and worked on both ends. The store manager even lent an arm.

Even Xuan was taught a lesson by her and became obedient. I thought it was a happy ending and everyone would return to a peaceful and stable life in the stable area.

As a result, Kaneki actually proposed to leave at this time, which made Touka really hard to accept.

Of course, Kaneki didn't want to leave the stable area and leave everyone he was familiar with.

But after this ordeal, Kaneki finally came to his senses. He felt that Xuandu's idea was at least right in one respect.

That is a long and comfortable life. In the stable environment of the stable zone, those who are unwilling to show their fangs will eventually become victims of disputes in this chaotic and distorted world.

He now needs to find out where the so-called "doctor", Akihiro Kano, has escaped to and what he is planning.

The most important thing is to protect everyone in the Anding District in his own way.

only……

Jinmu glanced at Baige inconspicuously. He was thinking, does the Anding District really need him to protect it now?

In his current state, his thinking pattern is somewhat similar to Bai Ge's. It is precisely because of this that this question arises in Kaneki's mind.

Not to mention that Bai Ge has the dual identities of an investigator and a ghoul, and his strength is too powerful, so it is not difficult for him to protect everyone from disputes.

Thinking of this, Kaneki, who had just been so firm in his belief, suddenly fell into confusion.

But soon, Kaneki figured it out. Since he was no longer needed to protect everyone in the Anping District, he would focus all his energy on tracking down Kano Akihiro.

According to Tadara, he is not the only one who has been transformed into a ghoul through surgery.

In this case, Kaneki's goal is very clear - to rescue the innocent people who have been reformed from the hands of Kano Akihiro.

Thoughts stop here.

After being silent for a long time, Kaneki finally raised his head and revealed a gentle smile that belonged to the past:

"Touka, everyone, there are things I have to do, and only I can do them. So, I can't go back to the Anting District with you all."

"What do you mean only you can do it? Are you starting to become so self-righteous?"

Kaneki's explanation did not satisfy Touka, and even made her angrier.

"Is there something you absolutely have to face alone? Are the people in Anding District so untrustworthy?"

Touka loudly expressed her dissatisfaction and misunderstanding to Kaneki.

Touka knew that Kaneki had changed, but she didn't understand why it had happened.

In desperation, she could only turn to the store manager and Bai Ge, whose words carried more weight: "Manager, Bai Ge, are you just going to let Kaneki leave like this?"

"Hmm..." The manager nasally made no answer.

But fortunately, Bai Ge gave an answer: "What else?"

"After this period of growth, Kaneki's current strength should be considered one of the better ones among the SS-class."

"Blindly protecting a young bird will never help it spread its wings and fly high."

"But there is one thing you have to understand, Kaneki."

"Whatever you want to do, either make some progress or go back to the store and continue working, and never cause any more trouble."

"If you insist on being a hero even though you're not capable of doing it, no one will come to collect your body. Even if you rot outside, no one will care."

"Bai Ge is right. That's what I meant as well." The silent store manager finally spoke, taking over the conversation and continuing, "On top of that, let me add one more thing."

"Anding District will always be your home. Whenever you feel tired, you are always welcome to come back for a cup of coffee."

"Bai Ge, the store manager..."

The words of the two touched Kaneki's heart deeply. Even though he tried his best to hold back, tears still flowed uncontrollably from his eyes.

"Yes!"

Kaneki bowed deeply, then turned and left without looking back.

Wanzhang Shuyi looked at Kaneki's departing back, his thoughts churning in his heart.

After a moment, he gritted his teeth and quickly chased after him. The same thing happened to the other ghouls that Kaneki had rescued. Seeing Manjoshu's move, they all followed him.

As soon as they arrived, Manjo Shuichi expressed his determination to Kaneki. Kaneki did not refuse and gladly accepted the joining of Manjo Shuichi and his companions.

Seeing this, Touka also wanted to help Kaneki, but was stopped by Bai Ge.

"Just go to school. He's just leaving temporarily, not dead."

After that, without waiting for Dong Xiang to reply, Bai Ge said to the store manager: "Manager, I'll leave the rest to you. That old thief Marute has called me dozens of times now. I guess he wants me to go back to attend the awarding ceremony."

Bai Ge felt a headache when he thought about the upcoming awards and inevitable promotion.

But on second thought, getting a promotion might not be a bad thing.

No matter it is special class or quasi-special class, at this level, you will have the authority to access some of CCG's top-secret information.

Perhaps there is something he wants to know in these materials.

"Okay." The store manager nodded. "I'll have to ask you to keep providing information about the CCG."

The so-called intelligence does not mean that Bai Ge should report all the actions of CCG back to the An Ding District.

But if CCG starts to pay attention to the stable zone, or if there are any actions that may threaten the stable zone, Bai Ge can inform them in advance so that everyone can make preparations in advance.

"Don't worry." Bai Ge waved his hand and then left the woods.

On the way back, Bai Ge found a number marked "Little Red Riding Hood" in the phone book.

Soon, the call was connected and At's voice came.

"Bai Ge?"

"It's me. If I'm not mistaken, your plan should go smoothly, right?" Bai Ge asked in confusion.

"Of course, the harvest this time is quite rich." Et's tone on the other end of the phone was obviously full of joy.

Et had already told Bai Ge about the Bronze Tree's real plan on the day they met on the rooftop, or there was no way he wouldn't tell him.

Because Bai Ge had guessed long ago that the Bronze Tree's high-profile attack on Area 11 was definitely not just about expansion or developing a new stronghold.

As expected, the reason why the Bronze Tree captured Area 11 was because Li Shi was causing chaos, which made Area 11's overall strength weaker and easier to attack.

Another reason is to divert the attention of the CCG so that they can carry out their real plan - attacking the 23rd District Shelter.

The internment camp in Area 23 holds many powerful S-SS-level ghouls. It is full of vitality and everything is flourishing.

Even if these ghouls cannot all be used by the Bronze Tree, releasing them can still cause huge trouble to CCG.

There is another point, which is Et's own little thought, that is, there is a ghoul research expert in the shelter who was transferred to the "Daytime Court" to participate in a project ten years ago.

This information was obtained by Et from the remaining information from that year.

It was called information, but in fact it was just a list with more than half of it burned. In addition to those who had died and the research expert, there was another person on the list.

Akihiro Kano, who is called 'Doctor' by Bronze Tree.

That's right, Eto actually knew a lot about Akihiro Kano, and also knew that he was researching technology to turn humans into ghouls.

Because it was she who, in her capacity as the 'One-Eyed King', asked Bronze Tree to fund this technology.

But one day, Et suddenly discovered that the doctor seemed to be using the funds she gave him to secretly research another thing, but it was hidden so deeply that even Et could not find any useful clues.

Until Bai Ge dragged Et to investigate the collective disappearance incident, which involved an abandoned underground research institute.

So, Et later told Bai Ge some information he had found out about the bronze tree, trying to divert all Bai Ge's attention to Kano Akihiro.

Because Bai Ge had asked her to help investigate Akihiro Kano from the beginning, Et wanted to use Bai Ge's power to see if she could find out Akihiro Kano's secret.

As for the underground of the Anjiu family's villa, by the time the bronze tree was found, it was already deserted and nothing important was left.

After getting the information, Bai Ge never mentioned the matter again and did not take any action, so Et had to give up the idea temporarily.

In fact, the reason why Bai Ge did not take any follow-up action was very simple: he forgot.

After all, when he first started investigating Kano Akihiro, he was just curious about this doctor. After learning that he was only researching a low-tech project like artificial ghouls, he wasn't very interested anymore.

In addition, various things happened later and I gradually forgot about it.

Fortunately, Et didn’t know the reason, otherwise, he would probably have a heart attack from anger.
