Chapter 45: The End of the Silent Place

It was the next morning, and Gu Wu, who was on the soft bed, felt the warm light of the sun shining through the window on the east side, and the hollow curtain separating the room from the glass blocked part of the light, thus creating a mottled shadow that fell on the ground, like words deliberately written on the tiles.

Lifting the bed, stretching out, Gu Wu, who sat up, looked around, Louise and Tina, who always came to his room before, were not there at the moment, so it was estimated that they would stay in their rooms obediently to rest this time.

Since he collapsed on the bed after returning to the room last night and taking a shower, Gu Wu, who was naked, first found a set of clothes, and then moved to the bathroom to prepare for the next work.

Picking up the toothbrush and squeezing out the toothpaste, the movements that had been repeated many times and the scenes that he had seen countless times reminded Gu Wu of everything he had experienced last night.

Some guys are like toothpaste, unless there is an external force to interfere, otherwise it will remain the same and remain the same.

The Investigator who harbors malice towards the Mews, the Harriet and others who are hostile to the Meows, and then the Meows who want to wrest power from humans; Different forces have different reasons for acting, and if they want to change their minds, they must start from the most fundamental contradictions.

This 'fundamental contradiction' is also easy to understand, that is, the conflict of interests.

The CCG receives support from the people and the government, and maintains their raison d'être by expelling the meows;

Harriet and Fanny lead similar troops, believing that the Mews are dangerous monsters that must be expelled if they want a stable future;

And Kanekiken's interests are to protect their own shelter, which of course also includes the people they like and their companions.

So how can special measures be used to prevent their interests from conflicting? That, of course, is to give them a more attractive target than they are now.

This approach is similar to 'creating a common enemy' and directly 'creating a common good'.

Originally, the conflict between them is difficult to counteract, and everyone's revenge, rebellion, and cautiousness will have an impact.

Gu Wu is not omnipotent, it is impossible for him to dissect everyone's inner thoughts.

Some people have destroyed their families by meows;

Some of the meows were taken away by the search officer;

So who's right and who's wrong between the two? It was impossible for Gu Wu to give an accurate answer that would satisfy everyone.

However, as the owner and ruler of this world, Gu Wu naturally had the corresponding means to make them 'cooperate' and reduce the antagonism between them as much as possible.

After brushing his teeth and washing his face, Gu Wu, who had finished tidying up, left the bathroom, and walked towards the water dispenser due to thirst on the way.

For the people of the city, the resources here are like the limited water in the water fountain, taking a little bit will be less, and what means can make them get more water is the question of everyone who is studied.

Gu Wu is different, after he came here, he took out a part of the water from the water dispenser and put it in a cup, held it in his own hands, and then saw if it was necessary to share it with others, or if it was all for himself.

Gu Wu showed the rights he had, and he also proved his ability, giving others the premise of trusting him.

Now Gu Wu is holding a glass of water, he only drinks half of it, and the rest is on the table.

This is the current situation, Gu Wu regards outsiders as water fetchers, and he has his own ideas on how to arrange them.

For some guys who vainly tried to use crooked methods, Altaïr, as Gu Wu's collaborator, would naturally punish him as soon as possible, and there was no need for Gu Wu to think about this.

"The weather was not bad......

The light of the early morning dispelled the fog, and the shallow clouds did not stop its warm glow

Gu Wu, who ran to the edge of the windowsill, looked out of the house, his gaze moved from the sky to the earth, this annex building has a much larger green area than the CCG headquarters, and the fallen leaves blown by the wind carry the smell of earth flying in the air.

The early morning in autumn was quite cool, and Gu Wu, who was going to find a coat, picked up the mobile phone on the bedside table, and the time was displayed as [8:30].

"It's late autumn."

Gu Wu put on his coat, and he left the room after confirming that his phone had enough power.

The alleyway outside the house was empty, and even the CCG investigators who lived there were nowhere to be seen, not knowing if they had gotten up too late or too early.

The silent passage felt good, Gu Wu didn't bother Altaïr and Luise, but walked to the outside area alone.

Outside, there are people coming and going at the gate of the CCG headquarters not far away, and it seems that the investigators are all working earlier than before, after all, there are quite important things going on today.

Seeing several investigators carrying boxes containing Kuinke passing in front of him, Gu Wu recalled the experience of last night, and after he and Kaneki Yan separately solved the attack on everyone, the situation at the scene changed a lot.

Gu Wu proved that humans can also communicate, and Jin Muyan also proved that [Black Goat] is not one of those organizations that advocate violence and kill innocents indiscriminately.

The investigators on the CCG's side of the world were in a bit of a discussion, but they also understood that continuing to fight would result in more sacrifices, and more of their comrades would be killed as a result;

Harriet didn't seem to have any intention of changing her position, but she told the soldiers to lay down their arms and didn't continue to take drastic measures.

In fact, there is a premise for all this, that is, Altaïr's [Senluo Vientiane] restricts the movement of most people, and in the face of this girl with abnormal abilities, they don't want to break out into conflict.

As said before, in the case of someone wavering, Gu Wu began to 'create common interests' by means of 'creating a common enemy'.

The CCG's investigators want to banish the mews that threaten humanity, and the Black Goat won't accept those who do things;

The [Black Goat] on the other side is ready to fight for a piece of the world for himself, so Gu Wu can provide support in this matter.

Whether it is a species or a human being, in fact, they all have common interests, and they are not completely opposed.

"Good morning, Mr. Gu Wu."

The voice came from the side, and Gu Wu found that the girl named Harriet came over from the corner at some point.

"Did you just take a walk in the courtyard?"

"Yes, what about Mr. Gu Wu? Coming out for breakfast alone? ”

"Sort of...... That Miss Fanny didn't come with you? ”

"I'm not a kid anymore, I don't need anyone else to take care of me all the time, and Sister Fanny should take a break, so I came out alone."

At this time, Harriet pointed in a certain direction to the annex building of CCG headquarters.

"Actually, the restaurant here is very good, and Fanny bought the set meal for me before...... Because I was discussing the transportation plan with the people at the company, I asked Fanny to help me buy it. ”

"I haven't asked ...... question like this."

Probably because she was afraid of being treated as the kind of daughter who needed to be taken care of, Gu Wu thought that Harriet cared too much about what others thought of her.

You must know that the 'positioning' is all done by yourself, and it is up to you to decide what kind of person you want to become.

"Would you like to go over and have a look?"

"What do you want to tell me?"

"Mr. Gu Wu is really direct in this regard, that's right, I do have that idea."

Harriet looked at Gu Wu

"Because I think there is something unreasonable about this deal, those mews are 'evil' from any point of view."

"Maybe so."

Gu Wu would not continue to argue now that the matter was decided, but just continued to follow the girl's words.

The two men began to walk along the road leading to the restaurant, encountering a number of investigators who had just finished eating, and some of the people who walked out of the restaurant yawned, straightened their ties, and prepared to devote themselves to the rest of the work.

Gu Wu, who arrived at the restaurant, saw the recommended set meal, and since he was a guest of the annex building, he also had the right to eat here.

"Two tempura bowls, please."

"I didn't decide."

"Don't worry, it must taste good, and I liked it the first time I ate it."

Harriet's speech was in the style of a 'big lady', and she thought that everyone else would follow her pace.

It's just that Gu Wu doesn't plan to refuse this time, if the taste is really good, then it is quite lucky as the beginning of the day.

Gu Wu and Harriet, who were sitting in the dining room, began to talk about what would happen next during the waiting time.

"Mr. Gu Wu, can you tell me the reason for supporting the mew seeds?"

"Reason? Even if I have a good reason, it may just be an excuse for you. ”

"I can't deny it, after all, I don't have a good impression of mew seeds, but even if Mr. Gu Wu doesn't hide it, it doesn't matter, right?"

"If I had to say it, my reason was probably for 'new possibilities.'"

"New possibilities? It's exactly the same as the tone of some of the businessmen who solicited sponsorship at the conference. ”

Merchant? Indeed, everyone is a businessman who strives for the best interests for them.

After the two people who had made a conversation about the 'merchant' waited for a few minutes, the tempura rice bowl was ready, and Gu Wu, who took it to his seat, smelled it, it was very fragrant and appetizing.

The rice is covered with diced and fried shrimp, onions, shiitake mushrooms, mountain celery, etc., and the golden coat is still steaming hot.

"Please taste it."

Unlike Gu Wu, Harriet did not use chopsticks, but a knife and fork, although this was not a special thing.

When you put the tempura in your mouth, the crispy dough bursts open, and the tender diced meat wrapped around it is chewed up, and the crispy texture is accentuated by a little fat.

"Mr. Gu Wu, how is it?"

"Not bad."

"Right? I think Mr. Gu Wu is a rational person, and if he continues to support the seeds in the next actions, it will only bring worse effects. ”

"Why did you come to that conclusion? For you, the plan you execute next will also provide you with benefits. ”

"Immediate benefits, while important, are not the root of everything."

This is the world of Gu Wu's exchange, but now it is so real.

The system is very well done, Gu Wu admires it very much, and at the same time feels troublesome.

"I'm not going to change my mind."

Gu Wu said this, and he saw a new figure in the restaurant, not the investigator, but Loise and Tina.

"Found it! Master and vixen! ”

"Who's the vixen?"

"Humph! Since the master is going to have breakfast, it's time for us to get up together! ”

Louise, who rushed here, ignored Harriet's question, and just expressed her thoughts to Gu Wu.

"Then let's have two tempura bowls."

Gu Wu responded like this, which made Harriet's expression change on the other side.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Wu emphasized

"Some people will accept your opinions, and I think you can try to accept other people's opinions."

Everyone is selfish, but it's not all bad.

If you are willing to share, selfishness can sometimes turn into fearlessness.

"Luise, Tina, this tempura rice bowl is very good."

————

Gu Wu, Luise, and Tina studied how to make themselves stronger in the room, so Gu Wu used 'knowledge is a sharp weapon' to fool around, and asked the two little Loli to obediently run to read a book.

By the time I saw Altair, it was close to noon, and the rising sun was now hanging high in the sky, dispelling the coolness of late autumn.

"Is it the end today?"

Hearing Altair's question, Gu Wu replied affirmatively

"I think it's the last day."

"It looks like this farce is going to end in this boring form."

"Boring form? I think that's just right, after all, not everyone is like Miss Altair who can rely on great power to solve problems. ”

"I didn't solve the problem...... That's why I'm here, because you've made good on your promise and changed my future with Moment. ”

It's just a coincidence, and of course it's not a bad thing for Gu Wu.

"About the next meeting...... Just wait. ”

Gu Wu asked the two loli to wait in the room, after all, there was no need to go all over.

Along with Altair, we arrived at CCG's headquarters, where a conference room was set up on the ground floor.

At this moment, people including He Xiu Shanzhi have taken their seats, and Harriet also came to the scene as the head of the dispatch force, and finally-

Gu Wu, who was sitting in his seat, heard footsteps sounding outside the door, and finally stopped at the door.

The next moment, the door of the conference room was opened, and the scene suddenly became silent.

Where everyone's eyes converged, there stood two people.

They were Ken Kaneki and Toka Kirishima in suits, and they came to the scene as representatives of [Black Goat].

"Now that we're all here......"

He Xiushanzhi looked at the report in his hand and said

"Then Mr. Gu Wu, as an investor, and Kaneki Ken, as an executor, let's draw a result that will not increase casualties on this issue."

It's not easy to change the world, even if it's your own.

Gu Wu, who has a deep understanding, thinks that he has learned a lot of things, and sometimes what he needs more than saving is to destroy and then reorganize.

"I'll fulfill everything."

Gu Wu said to everyone.

As a 'broker', he takes the management of the world one step further.
