[Comprehensive fear] Borrow your life

Kirishima Touka has never been so nervous, this feeling that all the crises are coming together is really bad.

However, now she is playing the role of a human clerk who can't do anything. Not only can she not drive away the suitcase and the woman who seems to be able to see ghouls, she also has to serve them well.

Moreover, that new Kaneki Ken actually knew Alice?Doesn't this give this person another reason to come to the antique coffee shop frequently?Kaneki Ken is a ghoul now, so he will be killed by them sooner or later!

It's really terrible. Could it be that this peaceful life with human beings is about to be disrupted?No, I'm not reconciled, I have to do something... Before that, I have to ask Jin Mu where that woman came from.

Fortunately, Alice seemed to understand Kaneki Ken's work, and after talking for a while, Kaneki Ken returned to the counter to help. Alice herself returned to her seat without haste, that expression...is it happy?

"Hey, newcomer, do you know that person? What did you talk about just now?" Kirishima Touka looked at the same happy Kaneki Ken with displeasure: This guy, he didn't understand how critical the situation is now. , he doesn't even know what the suitcase is!

"It's not really acquaintance..." Jin Muyan finally put away his happy expression when he heard the words, "We just exchanged names because we only met once before. I was late to buy books that time, and she happened to Give me an extra set of books. What happened to her?"

I think she is a very nice person, but I always feel that the reaction of the people in the store is a bit strange. Is it my illusion?Kaneki Ken did not dare to say this sentence.In front of senior Kirishima Touka, he was actually a little scared.

"Really, there is no useful information at all!" Kirishima Touka raised her forehead, feeling stupid that she had expected something just now, "Then, when you met that day, did you see anything? For example, Did you follow the suitcase bearer?"

"Eh? Speaking of which, there seems to be no one else except an uncle who followed her to help her carry her things that day." Jin Muyan asked nervously, "Well, who is the suitcase-carrying person? "

This guy!Sure enough, I don't know!Kirishima Touka instantly felt that he was wasting his feelings. The worry for Kaneki Ken before was that the emperor was not in a hurry and the eunuchs were in a hurry.Although the younger generation lacked enough information, and those who didn't know were not guilty, she still became angry all of a sudden.

"I don't know! Hmph, you can just ask the person carrying the suitcase..." Kirishima Touka depressedly picked up the plate, ready to serve coffee to the other table.

"Dong Xiang! I'm very sorry that I can't help you, but I always feel that the suitcase you mentioned is very similar to Alice's bodyguard...Of course, this is just my feeling, just like I feel that Alice Si is a good person, so you don’t have to worry so much.” Kaneki Ken finally expressed his thoughts on Alice that he had held back for a long time, and then he thought of the absolute opposite relationship between humans and ghouls, “Sorry, I said something very strange If so, please don't mind."

Dong Xiang gently put down the coffee when she heard the words, and sighed: "You, you still haven't figured out the situation. In short, keep a distance from that dangerous woman, this is the only advice I can give you."

It doesn't really matter what kind of person Alice is, what matters is her possible ability to see ghouls.If this is confirmed, then all ghouls, no matter good or evil, no matter their position, will not let her continue to live.Kirishima Touka has seen through this a long time ago, and has made up her mind that if she is confirmed, she will be the first ghoul to kill Alice.

So, it doesn't matter what other opinions are!

Kirishima Touka kept paying attention to Alice's table as she walked away with the coffee.

Alice and Yue Shanxi have been talking happily.

This is of course, Yue Shanxi is a qualified hunter, he can always find out the prey's preferences in the shortest time, and use this to get closer to the opponent, and devour it in one go at the closest distance.If he wasn't a fellow ghoul and knew this guy's nature, I'm afraid I would have thought he was an elegant gentleman!

Suzune staggered on the stool very irregularly, with a look of boredom that wanted to kill someone, and the coffee didn't seem to have been touched much.

Reminiscent of the information about the ring tone given to her by the store manager, she felt that this was abnormal.

Lingyin should be a very casual person, and her strength also allows her to live a very casual life. She has always decided where to kill ghouls, and every time she runs to the place with the most ghouls and the most ferocious.Such a person does not like peace, she is destined to be addicted to killing.

That's why she made such a boring expression.But then again, she is a casual person, she doesn't like it, and she doesn't do boring things.So why did she accompany Alice to this store to drink coffee in a boring way?

Is it to accompany friends?To be honest, Kirishima Touka doesn't think the two are friends at all.What's more, if you come with friends, you won't be able to, and it shouldn't be so boring.

If it's not a friend, and you have to endure boredom and follow... Kirishima Touka suddenly felt that she could consider the possibility Kaneki Ken mentioned.

Thinking of it this way, she felt a little more at ease.

Maybe it's true what Jin Mu said, Alice didn't mean anything else, and the person following her was just a bodyguard.

She brought the coffee to the guest's table with a smile, showing an impeccable, sweetest smile in recent days.

At this moment, she suddenly heard Alice's cell phone ringing.

She kept walking towards the counter, but her ears focused on Alice's voice. Even at such a distance, she could still hear it with the ghoul's hearing.

She heard Alice pick up the phone: "Hello? Lilian? What's the matter?" (The conversation was in English, and Dong Xiang was very thankful that she learned English well.)

The person called Li Lian seemed to say something, but unfortunately Alice didn't turn on the speakerphone, so Dong Xiang couldn't hear it.

"It's rare that you actually want to see my sister! I thought you would be so happy to stay at Dad's place. I'm not at home now, I'm in a coffee shop, not far away, about 10 minutes away, um... an antique coffee shop."

"Then wait for your visit!" Alice finally ended the short call with a smile.

Naturally, Yue Shanxi couldn't help asking: "Does Alice have a younger brother? It sounds like he's coming over soon. I'm really looking forward to it."

yes!Kirishima Touka couldn't help complaining, looking forward to eating two at once, or a big meal for siblings!

"Well! You don't mind adding more people!" Alice didn't know that this made Yue Shanxi sound like adding food.

"Of course, but speaking of it, it's really disrespectful to ask you to treat me. You're the one who helped me out. How dare you do that. Otherwise, I'll pay the bill later!" Yue Shanxi remained the same gentleman.

"Don't be so polite. This guy," Lingyin, who had been playing with a spoon boredly, yawned suddenly and said, "but he is so rich! You don't need to help her save money at all, her weekly pocket money It’s more than my monthly salary.”

This... Kirishima Touka said that he can get a lot of information from it, and it seems more certain that Suzune is Alice's bodyguard.

"I seem to have heard something important." Yue Shanxi teased with a chuckle, "I remember that the investigator's job is very dangerous, and the salary should be very high. Sorry, I didn't mean to inquire about anything, but I was a little surprised. "

Yes, investigators are specialized in dealing with ghouls, and those carrying boxes are the elite among them. They can directly fight against ghouls, because the boxes they carry are, as Lingyin said, secret weapons.Only this weapon can hurt ghouls.Other ordinary weapons such as guns and swords cannot cause damage to ghouls.

Ghouls are such tenacious creatures that can heal relatively quickly even if they are injured.In comparison with Yue Shanxi, if she scratched his face with Kirishima Touka, it would probably only take a few seconds for him to fully heal.

"It seems that you don't understand at all!" Lingyin suddenly became serious, raised her legs, and answered Yue Shanxi in a very disdainful tone, "For me, the job of an investigator is a kind of enjoyment. That kind of torture The refreshingness of the ghouls, the wonderful screams, the mutilated limbs, the desperate expression, the warm blood and internal organs are all my favorite!"

Suzune's crazy speech made everyone around him look sideways.Kirishima Touka finally had a reason to look over there.

Looking at Lingyin's frantically distorted expression, she knew how hard it was for this person to endure not killing ghouls for a long time, and she also confirmed that this person was indeed the same as in the data, and he didn't care about ghouls at all. Sympathy, some are just brutal killings.

This person, she... is not human at all!

One of the most frightening things she did was that she once injected a ghoul with a drug that weakened the body, making the ghoul's body less hard and less invulnerable, and then killed the ghoul with her own hands. Only ghouls cut.She just... put the cut pieces of meat into her mouth and swallowed them raw.

During the whole process, the ghoul was alive.That ghoul, which has been eating people for a living, watched helplessly as it was swallowed alive by a human step by step!No human has ever done this before, and no relevant research has shown that it will do this.

But Lingyin just ate it recklessly, completely disregarding the consequences. She is indeed an extremely casual person, and it can also be said to be an extremely crazy person.

"What, it doesn't taste good at all, so I won't eat it from now on." After eating a lot of the ghoul's skin and meat, she commented like this.

Everyone else was terrified: so this person actually planned to eat it often?Terrible, really terrible!This incident was widely circulated, causing many investigators to avoid her. Although she is a strange person, she likes to be alone, her only interest is to kill ghouls, and she doesn't care about it.

However, Yue Shanxi didn't know this, and Kaneki Ken didn't know this either.Only she, Touka Kirishima, was worried about this.

"Dong Xiang, you should take a break today and let Jinmu help you." The store manager suddenly persuaded him to come back.

"Store manager!"

"You may need your help later. Please, Dong Xiang." The store manager said to her with some concern.As for the help mentioned, Kirishima Touka also understood that she needs to be ready to go to war at any time.

At this time, the glass of the antique coffee shop was smashed by someone, which happened to be the piece of glass near Alice.

But Alice seemed to know it in advance, and she just left her position to go to the bathroom, while Lingyin and Yue Shanxi quickly avoided it.

Only Kaneki Ken, who had just been sent to serve a table near Alice, was pierced with glass on his arm.

And the one who shattered the glass was a ghoul who suddenly rushed into the store!

That ghoul was covered in blood, its right arm was completely ripped off by some strange force, and some of its internal organs flowed out, it looked like it was going to die miserably.

And this ghoul saw Alice and the others as soon as it entered the store, quickly grabbed the ring tone who was closest to him, and strangled her neck with its remaining left hand.

"Don't move, or I'll kill her!"

Alice, Kaneki Ken and Suzune were about to do something when they were stopped by the kidnapper.However, that ghoul was facing the window from the beginning to the end, and his eyes were fixed there, trembling, panting, and afraid.

Soon, Kirishima Touka saw the two outside the window.

One of the young men was carrying a broken box, similar in style to the one carried by Lingyin. He seemed to be carrying the box, but he was extremely embarrassed. He had been bitten by ghouls several times on his shoulders and legs, and was constantly oozing out. Blood.

Behind him is a boy about 12 years old. He looks much better. There is no wound on his body, but his shirt is completely soaked with blood. Bleeding arm.Looks like it's the ghoul's missing arm.

"Lilian?" In this environment where everyone was terrified and kept quiet, Alice's voice was particularly abrupt. She seemed to know the boy and called out this name to him.

etc!It seemed to be her brother's name!Kirishima Touka suddenly realized this.

"Ah! Sister!" Like a child who has done something wrong, the young man suddenly threw the stump out of his hand in panic, "I got here before I knew it."

I don't know if it's his own illusion, Kirishima Touka always felt that when the young suitcase suitor appeared, the ghoul seemed not so nervous, but when the young man appeared and opened his mouth, the ghoul's breathing suddenly accelerated, and the cold sweat More flow.

Ghouls are more afraid of that boy than investigators!

Also coming to this conclusion is Yue Shanxi who has been held in the arms of the ghouls, and who most intuitively feels the frantic heartbeat and breathing changes of the ghouls.

At first, Suzune just wanted to play with this blind ghoul.But right away she noticed that her box had been left in place in order to get out of the way of the glass, and it was no wonder that the ghoul chose her, the investigator, as a hostage.

Interesting, really interesting, it is also very good to deal with ghouls without weapons!

She never expected that Touka Kirishima, who also noticed these things, had murderous intentions towards her: when the investigator has no box, it is the best time to kill the investigator!At the same time, this is also the best time to kill Alice!

Dong Xiang silently accumulated strength, ready to kill with one blow.She is confident that she can kill two people in a row at a fast speed, the point is not to be seen by others...

The customers in the shop had already run away in panic, and only the shop assistants, Alice, Yue Shanxi, and the two people who had just arrived remained here.

Alice, on the other hand, seemed to be looking out the window absent-mindedly, and she didn't turn her head until the young investigator negotiated with the ghouls.

"Let go of her, I can let you live." In order to save his senior, the investigator took the initiative to throw his weapon - the broken box into the distance, and deliberately pretended not to recognize Lingyin.

"Really, why are you in such a mess, newcomer." Lingyin was not that cooperative, she was so heartless that she didn't even remember the name of this companion who had cooperated with her to protect Will's family .

"You guys know each other?" The ghoul nervously tightened Ling Yin's grip.

"Yeah, I'm also an investigator, but can't you recognize the box if you don't hold it in your hand?" Lingyin said indifferently, completely ignoring the eyes of other people who looked like fools, "I warn you, don't tighten it so tightly, otherwise I won't tolerate you any longer."

"Nani!" The ghoul hated this contemptuous attitude, and instead tightened his stranglehold, as if he was about to strangle her to death.

But at this time, Lingyin still looked contemptuous and mocking.

"I warned you in advance."

As soon as the voice fell, a large amount of blood splashed around the ghoul as the center—the ghoul was torn apart, and the visual effect was very shocking.

The point is, neither the ghouls nor the humans present could clearly see how Lingyin made the move.And her box was still in place, untouched.

"Ex-senior!" Another investigator was already horrified to the point of incoherence.

Suzune felt a little bored looking at it, and turned to Alice, who had always made her feel very interesting.And Alice's reaction really amused her.

Alice didn't look at Lingyin who was walking towards her smelling of blood, but just stared at the ghoul's corpse in a daze, and she didn't even look away when Lilian thoughtfully ran to help her up.

No one knew that just now, in her eyes, the number of lives of that ghoul had suddenly changed from more than 700 to 0.

Her theory about fate doesn't apply to this ghoul!

"No, it's impossible, it's against the laws of the world, it can't be like this." Alice read in a daze, unable to accept such a result at all.

If you suffer an accidental injury, you will lose a life. People with more lives will live longer and endure death.You can't die until you have only one life left.These are the laws of the world, without exception.

All people are like karma arranged for a lifetime when they are born. They will definitely die when the number of lives is over, and they will never die when they have more lives.

But now, everything has changed.A ghoul with more than 700 lives died just like that!If this is the case, wouldn't it be pointless to try to find out the secrets of these many people with many lives?

Since no matter how many lives she may die in an instant, since everything has been distorted and there is no guarantee, what is the point of everything she does?

"This world has been distorted!"

"Sister, what are you talking about?" Lilian was a little surprised when she heard Alice's inexplicable words, "I always think you are strange recently."

Yeah, it's weird.Weird isn't it?Haven't so many strange things happened recently?When I went to Akihabara, I didn't know what I came to buy, and when I went to wait for Gao Yuquan's book, I was not interested in her, and I didn't even know her at all.Especially the sudden emergence of a creature like a ghoul. People all over the world know this kind of creature, but she just didn't know it. She didn't even feel it until the ghoul rushed in...

But everyone seems to be very accustomed to this strange world, and even I have gradually adapted to it, and gradually began to feel that ghouls have indeed existed since ancient times.If it wasn't for the weird change in fate, maybe she would never have noticed these things.

But so what, if you don't even understand the things you don't understand, and you're not sure about them, why bother to say more, and cause troubles to others in vain.

"It's okay, but the scene is too bloody, it's a bit nauseating."

Hearing this, Lilian glanced at Lingyin reproachfully, and then walked over to the young investigator who was already limp on the ground due to excessive blood loss.

"I'll take you to the hospital." At this time, Li Lian still cared about the injuries of the investigator's bodyguard, "Sister, please contact the servants to deal with this place. Others seem to be injured as well."

Although she had some complaints about Lingyin, Li Lian was still somewhat relieved of what Lingyin had shown just now. This kind of strength should be enough to protect her sister.

Lilian left quickly, and Alice also made a phone call, but some passers-by seemed to be seriously injured.

She asked the owner of the antique coffee shop for a little first aid.

She is very life-saving, and she has always mastered the skills in this area well, and she is not hesitant to save these people.

But the first thing she thought of was Kaneki Ken, who was pierced with glass on his arm at the beginning. He was preparing to go there with the first aid kit, but found that Kaneki Ken had disappeared.The clerks explained that Kaneki Ken's arm had already been bandaged by the clerks. The scene just now really scared him, and he is resting now.

"Alice doesn't seem to be affected at all, is she really okay?" Kirishima Touka asked suspiciously.She felt more and more that this human being was not simple, and could remain so calm after such a thing happened.

"It's okay, I've seen more bloody scenes, and I'm used to it." Alice's answer made her even more puzzled, "Speaking of which, when that ghoul rushed in, did you see a man outside?" Are you looking here? Uh...he is a person whose face you can't remember even if you see him, simply put, he is the face of a passer-by."

It turned out that Alice was looking for this person when she was looking out the window?

"Sorry, I didn't see the person you mentioned at all. Maybe I didn't pay much attention at the time." In fact, Dong Xiang has always been the person who pays most attention to her surroundings, and she also saw the person Alice mentioned .

At that time, at the entrance of an alley outside the shop, the man dressed in black came here suddenly, and then stretched out a hand to point to the antique coffee shop.Just astonished, the next second, Dong Xiang saw that poor ghoul obeying the man's instructions and rushing towards this side, even knocking open the glass blocking him.

The timing of his reaching out was neither too early nor too late, just when Alice left her seat!

It can be said that if he had been earlier, Alice would have been held hostage or impaled by glass!

But now, because of this chaos, the people in the antique coffee shop dare not take action against Alice easily.

Dong Xiang originally wanted to investigate the man carefully, but found that she couldn't remember the man's face at all.

This person is surrounded by a bunch of strange and troublesome guys... Kirishima Touka looked at Alice's back helplessly, and joined the ranks of rescuers.

Fortunately, no one died in the end, and Alice was exhausted after finishing all the procedures, and followed the ringtone in the direction of home dejectedly.

She is very grateful to Yue Shanxi and Jin Muyan who finally remembered to send her off, but unfortunately she no longer has the initial interest in them, and their super fate has no appeal to her since the ghoul incident.

However, this is also a good thing for them.Alice doesn't like to deceive herself and others. She clearly knows that she went to Yueshan Xi only to find a long-term object and a channel to study the secret of multi-life.So she half persuaded and half pushed Yue Shanxi to leave early.

"Does your arm still hurt?" Alice asked calmly, looking at Kaneki Ken's bandaged arm.

"Fortunately..." Jin Muyan lowered his head and touched his arm unconsciously.

"Why are you lying? I'll cut to the chase. I saw the glass hit you at the time, but you were not injured at all." Alice finally showed her cards, and looked a little worriedly towards the place not far away. Suzune took a look.This distance is the distance that Lingyin promises to save her at any time.

"How could it be—" Kaneki raised his head abruptly, and took off the bandage, revealing the fine scars inside, "Miss Alice, I was really hurt."

Alice was silent for a long time before she sighed and pondered: "Are you so afraid to let me know that you are a ghoul?"

Although Alice has no real sense of the existence of ghouls, she has learned about them.

She learned that ghouls are the natural enemies of human beings.They have the same appearance as humans, but the structure of the tongue and the internal composition of the body are different.This makes them have a peculiar sense of taste. They can only eat human flesh, and they will feel fishy and unpalatable when they eat other things.

In addition, their bodies are exceptionally defensive.No matter how you attack with a knife or gun, it can't hurt it, and the same is true for glass.

Before the glass shattered, Alice saw the scene of her accident, so she left her seat.

She saw Kaneki Ken at that time, but until Kaneki Ken was pierced by the glass, she didn't see the foresight of Kaneki Ken's accident, and afterwards she saw that Kaneki Ken's fate did not decrease.

This is enough to show that Kaneki Ken was definitely not injured.But the glass did hit him.

The only explanation was that he was a ghoul, and the current wound was made by himself in a way that could hurt the ghoul, in order to hide his identity as a ghoul.

"Don't worry, I won't report on you, even though it's very unbelievable." Alice walked back to Suzune's side, no longer caring about Kaneki Ken's affairs.

Whether he left Antique for safety or chose to trust her and stay here, it was beyond her control.
