"Now the first team, Long Hao, is there a good way to deal with Huahu?" This is the information gathered by Director Hexiu at this time, although the combat power of the mew species is higher than he expected, but the combat power of the CCG is not inferior to them in the slightest, and even far surpasses the other party. "The second team's Tanaka Maru is dealing with the demon ape, and the opponent of the Hagawa Junte is the black dog, so it looks like there are still people like us left."

"The fourth team was then responsible for cordoning off the scene." Now is not the time to take it lightly, the most important person has not yet appeared. "No one will be allowed to escape the encirclement!"

"Understand..."He looked ahead after giving the order, no one appeared from the front, whether it was the black dog, the demon ape, or even the flower fox, they all specially avoided the place where the CCG forces were most concentrated.

However, when he looked at the smoky street in front of him again, his eyes widened, and a meow appeared in front of everyone wearing a hooded coat, and he stood in front of the CCG with nearly 100 people, although the figure of the other party was not very tall, but it gave people an unbearable sense of oppression.

"The protagonist has appeared." At this time, there is only one person who dares to hit the CCG head-on....

The other party slowly turned his head, revealing the old face of the store manager, but unlike the previous gentle expression, the pair of eyes were so red that it was chilling, it looked like it was just an ordinary old man's face, which still made the soldiers of the CCG feel like a great enemy, they hurriedly raised their guns, and the soldiers with shields tried their best to hide their entire bodies behind the shields.

"Predatory behavior is all 'evil.'" The manager spoke in a completely different tone than usual, but the more calm the words, the more panicked the opponent became. "From the moment we are born, we are constantly plundering..."

"The so-called life..."The red Katsuko emerged from his back, gradually covering his face, forming a one-eyed mask, and the feather behind him gradually expanded, like the feathers of a owl, making him extraordinarily tall, after he said these words, he was no longer the store manager in Anding District, but... Owl. "It's the process of committing crimes over and over again... Life is equivalent to 'evil', I realize... I am 'evil'. “

"And so do you." Looking at the store manager who had become a wolf, Director He frowned, the other party looked serious, but how many people would survive this time. "Come on... Kill me! “

This is the last declaration of a generation of strong men ....

At this time, Hinami had already fallen asleep, she was so tired, she didn't rest before helping in the store, and she had been on the road, so she was a little tired when she came to the place where she slept, and because of this, she didn't have time to see the news reported.

"The General Directorate of CCG has designated the entire area of District 20 as a special alert area for blockade." At this time, the news was still being broadcast repeatedly on the TV, but it was muted by Dong Xiang, she took one last look at Hinami, who had fallen asleep, closed the bedroom door, and walked to the exit of the basement. "Residents have been completely evacuated."

Dong Xiang's footsteps were almost inaudible, she held the doorknob of the exit, twisted it slightly, and unexpectedly stood behind the door with an expressionless face, he seemed to be standing at the door all the time, it seemed that he already knew that Dong Xiang would definitely come out after knowing the truth.

"Where are you going?" The Quartet's tone sounded emotionless, and he looked at Dong Xiang, whose face was a little sad, but he already knew what Dong Xiang was going to do.

Dong Xiang didn't expect it to end so quickly, everything was too sudden, they were still chatting happily together before, but at this time, life and death were uncertain, and he didn't know anything.

"It's over." Quartet coldly said the truth, but Dong Xiang's heart was unwilling to accept it.

"End..."Dong Xiang repeated the word, she realized that all this was arranged by everyone in the Anding District, and they in the Anding District chose to be outcasts themselves, but now they let her stand by and watch? She clenched her fists and asked the Quartet, the only one who knew the truth. "To them... Don't you save yourself when you die? I always say that the policy of Stability Ward is mutual aid... What will happen to the store manager? What about Mr. Furuma? What will happen to Mr. Irimi? “

"They always..."Quartet finally spoke, longer than any time he said on weekdays, he had to tell Dong Xiang the truth, because only in this way would Dong Xiang accept it, whether it was good or bad, no matter how white a lie was, it would eventually become a bubble in the end, but he didn't know how to lie. Always subconsciously looking for ways to compensate... They take a lot of lives, they keep making mistakes... But after meeting Mr. Yoshimura, they finally realized the meaning of their actions, but... Even if they turn their ways, they can't erase their sins... So they need to be punished ...."

"Punishment..."Dong Xiang muttered, she couldn't believe that it was for this reason that they abandoned the Anding District they loved.

"This battle is also a punishment for them." There was a rare tenderness and helplessness in the eyes of the Quartet, and after they made such a choice, it was not only themselves who suffered, but also their companions who lived with each other day and night, and they also had to bear the pain of loneliness, because they had to bear all this to survive in order to continue the stable area. "It's theirs, and it's their partner's."

"In that case, so do I." Dong Xiang made up her mind, even so she would go back, just because she was also burdened with the same sin, she roared hysterically. "I've killed a lot of people along the way, not just to eat, but even to kill people because they don't like each other, and I'm too... I need to be punished too. “

Quartet didn't answer, he was never good at persuading the other party, especially those who had already made up their minds, even those who they didn't want to lose could only silently watch the other party leave, so when he saw Dong Xiang looking at him with such eyes, he couldn't say a word of comfort at all, he could only silently watch Dong Xiang walk behind him.

This is exactly what he envies, those things that he has never had in him, that kind of firmness, as if he has returned to the first time he heard that his sister died, the powerless self, no matter how hard he tries in the future, he can't fill the emptiness...

Why... Dong Xiang ran in vain, even if she knew that it would be too late even if she arrived, even if she knew what kind of scene of death and life awaited her, she still had to continue to run, even if it was just chasing the last bit of hope.

"School?" The young lady in her mind was still the gentle woman who was quietly wiping the plate. "I like to experience it, too."

Why everyone... She knew that everyone was here to protect herself and Hinami, but it still made her unacceptable, this kind of taste of being kept in the dark alone.

"You say my tie is like a stinking gutter?" Mr. Furuma in his mind is also a man who likes to talk big. "You're too much, Dong Xiang."

Why did everyone leave me? I know that I will fight side by side with you without hesitation as long as I say it, why do you have to bear everything silently like that stupid person?

"Dong Xiang," the store manager's expression was still smiling when he turned his head.

It's all gone... And with this dream-like stable zone...

"Kirishima-san, do you want to eat a bento together?" And the gentle smile when I first saw Iko in my mind.

Whether it's the agreement with Iko, or the equation I desperately memorized, all... All.... All of them...

It's all gone...

I don't want to... I can't take it anymore... The last thing that comes to mind is the lonely back of that stupid guy when he resolutely left, I don't want to... Lose anyone more...

The girl running in vain on the dim streets, the slowly falling snowflakes, and the tears that disappeared on the cold ground, this is her last insistence...

"Why are you?" Jin Mu slowly opened his eyes, he had already seen the situation in the Anding Zone, and he had roughly guessed the thoughts of everyone in the Anding Zone, but the familiar voice and tone behind him made him turn around.

"Nishio-senpai..."Kaneki's muffled voice made Nishio slightly uncomfortable.

"Hmph. Long time no see. Nishio knew that he was no longer the shivering boy he had been, and although he looked regretful, he still had a relieved smile on his face. Kaneki. “

"The Quartet has been in contact." Nishio told Kaneki about the recent events in the Anding District, and their expressions were filled with a hint of sadness and nostalgia, as if they were not facing a life-and-death battle. "Dong Xiang and Hinami have been taken into hiding by him, don't worry."

Kaneki didn't speak, maybe he didn't know how to speak, and although they finally met, he couldn't say a lot of what he wanted to say.

"Things are always... It's going to be over all of a sudden. Nishio didn't care about this, he just wanted to find a place to talk about his thoughts now, although he could escape, but when he really escaped, he found that he was so unwilling. The daily life that is taken for granted collapses in an instant, and it always comes to an end in the blink of an eye...."

"That old man is really infuriating." Nishio is different from Dong Xiang, he cares a lot about the collection of information, and naturally knows the reason why the store manager did this, but even so, he can only laugh mockingly, but he doesn't know if it is for the store manager or for himself who is like a deserter at this time. "I want to help clean up other people's messes... Mr. Demon Ape and Miss Irumi are also very bad-hearted, so we feel extremely bad..."

"What are you going to do, senior?" Kaneki spoke, his face blank all the time, and what he was going to do was decided from the beginning.

"Me?" Nishio tried to make a nonchalant expression, he was sober and intelligent, but because of this, he couldn't fight his enemies without hesitation like some hot-blooded fools. "Stupid, of course I'm running away, if I rush into the flock of white pigeons like this, then I'll really waste the old man's sacrifice, so... After you didn't see each other for the last time... I'm leaving. “

"You can't tell her to wait for me all the time." Nishio's face was full of a playful smile, as if he was joking, but his smile was so sincere when he faced Kaneki. "Wait until she becomes an old woman, and then say... Such a good woman... How can you not hug it in the end? “

"If only I..." Kaneki's expression still hasn't changed much, he won't smile like he used to after these days, but he can also see people's inner thoughts more clearly, if you are really as relieved as you say, then why is your tone so sad. "If you hadn't invited seniors to work in Anding District..."

"Don't say something about it now..."Nishio's voice became dull, and sure enough, Kaneki would only blame himself as before, even if he became so strong, he would still be the same Kaneki, but this made him annoyed for a long time. It's really infuriating, I don't hate you, I said Kaneki... You don't have to do 'that'. “

Nishio looked at Kaneki's feet, where the black mask with teeth lay quietly, it was Kaneki's enlightenment....
