District 23, also known as Edogawa Ward, is a relatively peaceful place compared to the areas where there is a lot of activity.

It's eight o'clock in the evening, and it's usually a time when people take an after-dinner walk to pass the time, or you may see some people who are used to hanging out at night, but ......

In Edogawa Ward, located close to the center of the city, there is a stadium-like building in an area that is easily accessible.

It's just that this building has thick walls and a high level of security, and this is the Quakulia Shelter located in Area 23.

Now, peace no longer exists, it has become a battlefield.

Hiiragi, located on the surface of [Quekulia], also heard the explosion and the sound of steel twisting, and in front of him, many mews wearing the same outfit rushed towards him.

The investigators who were originally stationed here did not repel the attack because of the sudden attack, even if they reacted immediately.

In the field of vision, two search officers armed with guns were torn apart in an instant, and the severed arms flew into the air.

The bright red blood turned the place into hell, and the meadows began to slaughter, and the inquisitors fought it with all their might.

Immediately afterward, a huge explosion knocked down the nearby sentry, and the unsupported sentry smashed into Hiiragiya.

Sensing the danger around him, Hiiragi also hurriedly dodged to the side, and several meows that couldn't dodge were easily crushed.

The crushed flesh mixed with the bones, turning into a disgusting liquid that flowed out of the clothes.

Hiiragi is here because of someone who was sent here by CCG.

However, within three hours of arriving here, the Bronze Tree launched an attack on Kuikulia.

The elite troops of the Bronze Tree broke through the layers of defenses with an unstoppable momentum, and rushed towards the underground prison where the SS-class mews were kept.

At the moment, Hiiragi, who is still on the surface layer to carry out the so-called patrol mission. I think it's time for me to get moving.

Having said that, the tragic situation in front of us is indeed an exaggeration.

The shoulder was bumped on the shoulder by a passing inquisitor, who ignored Hiiragi in a daze, and instead pointed to the constant meows.

"Hey! Hurry up and take on those damn mews! Just hold on until the arrival of the other special classes! ”

"Yes, that's right...... I understand. ”

However, that is basically unlikely, because Hiiragi has already told Izumi Takatsuki about this plan. Therefore, powerful special investigators such as Arima Guijun were all led away.

To put it simply, by the time the CCG's support forces arrived by now, the battle was estimated to be over long ago.

Hiiragi did this because he thought it was a foolish idea to take advantage of the fisherman.

Suppose that at this moment, let the one-eyed owl and Arima Guisho fight, once the one-eyed owl is suppressed, will he still have a chance to take it away when he appears?

No, that's impossible.

If the CCG's side is too strong, Hiiragi will not be able to defeat the one-eyed owl and take it away at that time.

Therefore, Hiiragi also used means to give the bronze tree an advantage in this incident. Rather than making CCG react immediately.

But thanks to this, most of the investigators who tried to persevere were tortured and killed by the elite mews of the bronze tree.

Unilaterally, even if they counterattacked and shot many meows, they still couldn't turn the situation around.

Several meows rushed to this side, several of them began to split up, and the last one rushed towards Hiiragiya.

Faced with the enemy rushing over, Hiiragi looked at the road behind him.

After confirming the next path to take. As he lunged forward, he swiped his right hand and cut through the tail that was sticking out. Then he grabbed the mask with his left hand.

"Now I have some aftertaste."

The mask was crushed, and the head of the mew was split in two, and it fell in a pool of blood.

He took out the mask he had casually purchased for the festival from his bosom, took off the inspector's uniform, and walked towards the passage behind him.

Hiiragi was only assigned the simplest surface patrol mission when he came here, so if you go underground. It's going to take some time.

What Hiiragi has to do now is to kill those elite bronze tree troops who have infiltrated the ground, so that the Kind Finder here has a bit of an advantage and lure out the one-eyed owl.

That's right, the plan is arranged, but Hiiragi has its worst enemy. That's the Shinowara Fuji and Suzuya who are staying here at the moment.

If they're all pinned, that's the best thing to do.

In addition, the one-eyed owl who appeared in [Quekulia] as Aite, Hiiragi's purpose is to make him show his true appearance.

In that case, it will also make all the investigators in this facility gather to attack it, right?

Uh, or run away......

All in all, although the language is a little confusing, Hiiragi's purpose and steps are very simple.

- Create chaos and get Aite to participate in this battle and find a way to defeat him.

"Huh?! Is that the one over there also a meow seed?! ”

"It's a nuisance."

Hiiragi is wearing a graffiti-type tengu mask, and due to his facelessness, he is treated as a kind of mask by the other investigators.

Avoiding their pursuit, Hiiragi also headed in the opposite direction, intending to enter the area below through another passage.

Pushing open the door, Hiiragi has no intention of stopping, and tries to choose a place with fewer people.

However, at the end of the road, I saw a meow that had thrown a search officer into the air with one hand.

One-eyed, black combat uniform, white hair.

"You ......"

Kaneki apparently saw Hiiragi, and Hiiragi also stopped.

That's the real trouble.

…………

Time rewinds to a day ago, Hiiragi is also discussing with Shinohara, and after talking to Nagi, he meets the meagre sent by Izumi Takatsuki.

"I want you to know why I'm here."

"Your boss asked you to come, right? Want to know what? ”

Just behind the apartment where he lived, the meander pulled out a notepad from his bosom.

"CCG's actions."

"Let's put it this way......"

"As soon as possible, I don't want to waste too much time here."

It's really a rigorous mew, Hiiragi couldn't help but sigh.

After sorting out his thoughts a little, Hiiragi also plans to make some suggestions for the bronze tree.

"First of all, you can create all kinds of events in different regions. This prevents the CCG from focusing its forces on your actions and doing what it wants. But in this way, presumably the other party will also be vigilant, right? The CCG will certainly guess what the frequent incidents are for, so as to strengthen the precautions at critical facilities, so the best way to do this is to stand still. ”

"That's ...... So is the CCG starting to find out what we're doing? ”

"It's not the beginning. Instead, the corresponding information has been collected for a long time, so in order not to discover the true intentions, it is better to resort to surprise attacks. ”

Hiiragi's words were recorded in the notebook, and Hiiragi also made some additions.

Hiri said about the actions of General Arima, the recent movements of the various special investigators, and what arrangements the CCG has.

On the one hand, Shinohara is wary of the bronze tree, and on the other hand, the bronze tree learns to hide, and Hiiragi is in between.

In fact, these two forces have their own summit groups, and their influence is not great, right?

"But if you can affect a little, it's a little."

"What are you talking about?"

"Nothing."

"That's all, right? I'll report it to the people above, and I can't imagine that I'm actually going to work with a search officer. You humans are as ugly as ever. ”

"Humans are a kind of demons."

Hearing Hiiragi's words, he couldn't even say a word, probably because he was shocked.

Hiiragi's purpose now is very simple, to influence the plot of this world as much as possible, and then do his best to complete the task.

So, after a day, Hiiragi was also transferred by the CCG to [Quekulia] to be in charge of guarding.

At the same time, in order to obtain information about the 'owl'. CCG's Kotaro Yamen and his partner, his former boss. Mato Takeo's daughter, Mato Akira, visited the shelter of the captured mew [Kuikulia].

The object of the visit is the SS-class mew who used to be his adoptive father when he was in the orphanage. Donat. Polpora.

Therefore, in this plot, many of the main characters will appear.

Hiiragi is now torn between the two forces, in fact, he wants to rely on the strength of one person, plus the help of Xiao Nagi. It is also impossible to play with these two organizations.

Yes, as I said earlier, even a subtle influence can tilt things in favor of Hiiragi.

…………

And now,Hiiragi is also with the hero again.。 Ken Kaneki met.

The other party must have remembered the previous threats against him through Dong Xiang and antiques.

Turning to Hiiragi, Kaneki raised his right hand and moved his five fingers, making a crisp sound from the fingers pressed down by the thumb.

"I haven't forgotten you, even with a mask."

"Me too, but you don't have time to waste here right now, do you?"

Hiiragi's gaze fell on the iron gate leading to another passage, and Kaneki slowly walked towards Hiiragi.

"Who the hell are you? Why do you know those things, what exactly do you want to get? ”

Hiiragi didn't answer, but planned to leave this place of right and wrong immediately.

Obviously, the plot has developed here, but it turned out that he ran into Kaneki, and his luck was really bad enough.

In the case that Hiiragi did not answer, Kaneki began to act.

He quickly closed the distance between the two men, cutting between them like a razor, and the scales unfolded from both wings at the same time.

There are attacks from the left and right and front, and Hiiragi's only option is to retreat.

The right hand swiped vertically, creating a crack that blocked Kaneki's progress.

"That strange ability again."

Kaneki stopped and dodged sideways, and Scales stabbed Hiiragi in the abdomen like a piercing hand.

The left-handed knife slashed down, and the torn space split the scales in two.

The simple staggering allowed Kaneki to seize the gap in Hiiragi's actions.

Hiiragi is also unable to continuously use the ability to take away space time.

"You can't use that strange ability all the time, tell me everything you know!"

Kaneki leaned sideways and accelerated with the help of Hiiragi and burst in front of Hiiragi.

As Kaneki said, Hiiragi also can't use the ability to cut the time of a fixed space continuously and quickly, and the load brought by that would be too great.

Hiiragi is not fully proficient in using it, and it is normal to be seen through.

"Kaneki, don't you want to change the situation at the moment?!"

"What do you mean? I'll be here to prove that I have such thoughts, but that has nothing to do with you. ”

Because I want to protect those people, I want to be strong.

This is a natural and normal thing, but he still has many enemies to solve.

"Then join forces with me!"

"I refuse!"

"Yes......"

Happily rejected by Kaneki.

Seizing the point in time when Hiiragi's ability to use cooldown, Kaneki launched an onslaught.

Like a poisonous snake, Scales swooped out from different directions, and Hiiragi caught some of Scales' movements with the dynamic vision of his right eye.

If you think of Scallop as a spear, its attack trajectory is fixed when piercing enemies.

So......

After confirming the attack trajectory, his body rushed forward, and the back of his right hand was struck outward, directly sending a scale flying.

Kaneki's left eye couldn't help but be a little surprised to see Hiiragi behaving like this.

The speed of Scale's attack is definitely not slow, and it is impossible to react accurately with human judgment.

"Your Left Eye ......"

Hiiragi also continued to bounce off Kaneki's scales, but this high-intensity action inevitably led to mistakes, causing various wounds to begin to appear on his body.

The injured right hand not long ago has not fully recovered, and now it begins to have a dull pain.

"When you look at my movements, especially when I move quickly, my left eye occasionally loses focus, and that eye, I can't see it."

"That's it, I'm pretty ...... It's bothering. ”

Leaning against the wall, Hiiragi also fell to the tips of the middle fingers of the two arms at his side, slowly dripping blood.

The clothes were cut and a part of the mask was missing.

"Then tell me what you know."

"But I don't have time, it's a waste here."

"I'm not going to show mercy."

Kaneki clenched his fists and bent down slightly, and the scales began to gather behind him, ready to attack.

Bang! Bang!!!!!

Suddenly, the concrete floor above their heads collapsed, and a figure appeared between the two, and Hiiragi took advantage of the chaos to run towards the door just now.

"What are you doing here?! Our destination is at the bottom! Now that I've got my access card, don't waste any time. ”

Stepping on the ruins, Kirishima Ayato said.

Not only him, but there were also several defeated Searchers on the ruins around him, and it seemed that the top had been completely lost.

"I, got it."

Kaneki looked at the opposite side where the dust was about to clear, and it was clear that Hiiragi had already left the scene.

The battle between them, the confrontation here, has just begun. (To be continued.) )
