The demon monk in the second dimension

However, after venting his anger, Yukinori Shinohara managed to suppress it.

"She confessed?"

"Ah."

Hachikawa Tadashi nodded slightly.

"She is a member of the Black Dobermann. The true identity of the Black Dobermann leader is Irimi Kaname, an employee of the Antique Cafe. The Demon Ape who fought the Black Dobermann back then is now also an employee of the Antique Cafe, named Furuma Enji. The Antique Cafe is a place run by ghouls, specifically to provide free food for weak ghouls who cannot hunt."

"An antique coffee shop?"

Upon hearing this name, Yukinori Shinohara was taken aback.

A week ago, Senior Investigator Kureo Mado, who was also one of the group's old partners, was ambushed by ghouls after investigating an antique coffee shop.

He and his partner, Kotaro Amon, both tragically perished.

Fortunately, Special Investigator Kishou Arima happened to pass by and killed the ghouls who were lying in ambush with the two.

Arima Kishou also stated that he did not find anything unusual about the antique coffee shop.

But now that Hachikawa Tadashi is saying this, it's clear that Arima Kishou is mistaken!

Yukinori Shinohara's expression turned even more serious.

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

"I know."

Hachikawa Tadashi nodded emphatically and spoke solemnly.

"Shinohara, is that rumor about the antique coffee shop true? Is there really a way to turn ghouls into humans?"

"If we assume this rumor is true, is it possible that the people in the antique coffee shop were originally ghouls, but have now become human, which is why Arima and the others haven't discovered them? Are we just going to let them go?"

Shinohara Yukinori paused, not answering the question, but instead asking Hachikawa Tadashi in return.

"If it's true, do you think it's a good thing or a bad thing?"

Hachikawa Tadashi immediately replied without hesitation.

"It would be a good thing if there were no more ghouls in the world. But should we just let those ghouls who committed countless crimes go unpunished?"

Yukinori Shinohara didn't say anything more, and simply waved his hand gently.

“I need to discuss this with the other special agents. You should treat Heike Keiko first, at least so that no one can tell that she was injured before.”

Seeing that Shinohara Yukinori insisted, Hachikawa Tadashi reluctantly nodded and left.

……

Not long after, inside the antique coffee shop that was open for business, a woman in her thirties rushed into the coffee shop, bypassing the queue.

She came to Iruma Kaname's side and said in a panic.

"It's terrible, boss! We haven't heard from Keiko for two days! People around here say she's been arrested by the CCG!"

"what?!"

Upon hearing this, Ru Jianxuan was taken aback.

After most of the ghouls in Tokyo were turned into humans or entered Natsume's stomach, the remaining ghouls were basically connected to the Antique Cafe or Aogiri Tree.

Among them are the "Black Doberman" and the "Demon Ape".

Under the immense pressure of Aogiri Tree, the remaining ghouls either joined Aogiri Tree or became ordinary humans.

Even if they join the Bronze Tree, they will eventually become ordinary people.

Therefore, under the leadership of Irimi Kaname and Koma Enji, the "Black Doberman" and the "Demon Ape" were transformed into ordinary people.

Even everyone in the antique coffee shop is the same.

But unexpectedly, Keiko, who had been transformed into a human, was captured by the CCG!

However, since there have been previous incidents of ghouls turning into humans being captured, but the CCG was forced to apologize, Irimi Kaname is not worried.

Instead, she comforted him.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen."

As soon as she finished speaking, Hachikawa Tadashi appeared in front of the antique coffee shop.

His face wore a cruel smile, and the missing lips made him even more terrifying.

The Cookin in Hachikawa's hand was in an activated state, its muzzle gleaming with golden light!

"Die, you black Doberman!"

boom!

Chapter 117 Disposal

Despite the fact that the antique coffee shop was almost full and there were many people queuing, Hachikawa Tadashi still decided to take action.

What does it matter if a few people die in order to fight ghouls?

In order to protect these ordinary people, letting the ghouls go will only lead to more deaths!

Although Shinohara Yukinori said that this matter needed to be discussed in a meeting among the special agents, the situation was extremely tense.

By the time they finish their meeting, it might be too late!

Therefore, even if he is reprimanded by his superiors, even if he loses his position as a special agent, or even goes to prison, he, Hachikawa Tadashi, will avenge his master and his subordinates!

The golden cannon fire from Cookin would be fatal to ordinary people.

This shot will not only destroy the antique coffee shop, but the entire shop will be littered with blood and flesh, turning it into a murder scene.

The shop assistants, now ordinary people, were powerless to stop it, but fortunately, Xia Zhi left behind an incarnation of Asura.

The reason this Asura incarnation remained at the antique café was that almost a month had passed, yet some ghouls were still only now receiving the news, which was outdated and they hesitantly came over wanting to become human.

To avoid the hassle of running around, Xia Zhi simply sent over an avatar, which was usually in standby mode in a room on the second floor of the coffee shop, and would be activated when needed.

That is, this avatar stepped forward at this moment and blocked the cannon shot.

Sizzle sizzle

The golden energy cannon was fixed in mid-air, radiating a dazzling light.

With a flick of her wrist, Xia Zhi, wearing an Ultraman Tiga mask and a black robe, caused the energy cannon to dissipate into smoke with a "biu" sound.

Meanwhile, Xia Zhi made a hand seal with her other hand, and the invisible magic power transformed into an iron hammer, which slammed hard onto Hachikawa Tadashi's head.

The mentally unstable investigator fainted on the spot and was unable to get up again.

At this moment, inside the antique coffee shop, the group of people, realizing they had just walked on the edge of life and death, suddenly woke up from their daze.

"Ahhh!"

"Bagaya way! Bagaya way!"

"Damn it! Damn it! Does being an investigator give you the right to kill people like that?"

Screams and shouts filled the air!

The crowd is excited!

Anyone who accidentally shows their face to death and almost dies will panic and curse!

Several people kicked the unconscious Hachikawa Tadashi several times and spat on him repeatedly.

Inside the coffee shop, Kirishima Touka, Irimi Kaname, and Koma Enji were all covered in cold sweat.

Knowing that Hachikawa Tadashi had come towards her, Irimi Kaname thanked Natsumi Shizuka with a mixture of fear and self-reproach.

"Thank you."

Xia Zhi took out her phone and called He Xiuji.

"What? This actually happened?"

Wasu Yoshitoki never expected that an investigator would be so crazy as to take action in broad daylight and disregard the lives of dozens of innocent people!

"I will have your esteemed general handle this matter immediately! Please rest assured, this person will never appear in public again!"

……

Not long after, at the CCG Tokyo headquarters.

Yukinori Shinohara was just about to convene a meeting with several special agents from Tokyo, and even the director and Yoshitoki Osamu, when the head of the Special Affairs Section arrived with Kishou Arima.

"Yukinori Shinohara, look what you've done!"

With a bewildered look on Shinohara Yukinori's face, the head of the Special Operations Section spoke to him coldly.

"Your subordinate, Associate Special Investigator Hachikawa Tadashi, attacked the antique coffee shop and used offensive cuquins on a large number of ordinary people inside. He was apprehended by other investigators present at the scene."

"We saw through the surveillance footage that he went to the antique coffee shop right after leaving your office, and you even specifically reviewed the report on this matter beforehand! Special Agent Shinohara, did you instruct Hachikawa Tadashi to do this?!"

"no!"

Yukinori Shinohara retorted decisively, but his face was filled with shock, anger, and surprise.

He didn't expect that Hachikawa Tadashi would disobey his orders and go to the antique coffee shop on his own based solely on his testimony without having any concrete evidence.

He never expected that Hachikawa Tadashi would dare to make a move right there in a crowded coffee shop!

Has he gone mad because of the deaths of his master and subordinates?

"Special Investigator Shinohara, as instructed by the Director, your duties as Special Investigator are temporarily suspended, and you are to be placed in solitary confinement. Do you have any objections?"

Upon hearing the announcement from the head of the Special Affairs Section, Yukinori Shinohara gave a wry smile and shook his head slightly.

"I have no objection."

Yukinori Shinohara knew that he probably couldn't clear his name of this suspicion.

Hachikawa Tadashi will definitely be severely punished, and he himself will also be affected.

Seeing how cooperative Shinohara Yukinori was, the head of the Special Operations Section relaxed his tone slightly.

"Well then, please come with us."

Before leaving, Yukinori Shinohara spoke to Kishou Arima.

"There's Matt and other antique coffee shops..."

But before Shinohara Yukinori could finish speaking, Arima Kishou interrupted him.

He pushed up his glasses and said expressionlessly.

"CCG is the Ghoul Countermeasures Bureau, while everyone in the Antique Cafe is human."

Upon hearing this, Yukinori Shinohara's eyes showed a look of realization and disbelief.

"That rumor was true—I know now."

He sighed, expressing his pessimism about the incident.

Hachikawa, you're in trouble this time!

……

As expected, the higher-ups made no attempt to notify the special envoys of a meeting, but instead directly made a resolution.

"Associate Special Investigator Hachikawa Tadashi has seriously violated CCG regulations by using an offensive cooker to attack ordinary people in a crowd, causing a negative impact. He is hereby stripped of his Special Investigator rank and sentenced to life imprisonment."

"Special Investigator Yukinori Shinohara was demoted to Senior Investigator for poor management and failure to detect Hachikawa Tadashi's unusual behavior in a timely manner. He is not eligible for promotion for three years."

After spending two days in solitary confinement, Shinohara Yukinori first chatted with a few old friends who came to comfort him for a while after leaving the confinement room, and then asked his colleagues at the ghoul prison through connections.

Is Keiko Byodo still in prison?

The other party was obviously aware of Shinohara Yukinori's demotion, and offered a few words of comfort before speaking.

"She has been acquitted."

"is it?"

After hanging up the phone, Yukinori Shinohara roughly understood the situation.

"With Matt and the others involved, the higher-ups must know about this? Does this mean we should give up on revenge and just let ghouls and their impact become history...?"
