After the fat ghoul Investigator left, only Su Xiao stayed in the underground passage.
The rushing footsteps came closer, as Su Xiao was preparing for the battle.
In the dim passage, thousands of ghouls seemed to be hidden which made Su Xiaoâs forehead full of cold sweat.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, even thousand is an underestimation.
Although Su Xiao was a ghoul Investigator, he will not sacrifice his life for CCG. Joining CCG was only to complete the task.
It was undoubtedly a foolish action to be faithful to an organization with bad intentions.
Su Xiao was hesitant. Should he strategically retreat?
After a while, the sound of footsteps gradually disappeared as the ghouls seemed to go to another way.
This made Su Xiao feel relieved. If there were too many ghouls, he could only choose to retreat.
There must have some great changes inside the 24th district. Otherwise, the ghouls will not be so crazy.
Now Arima Kisho was in the deep part of the 24th district. Arima Kisho mentioned that the âsourceâ will be handled by him.
Does âsourceâ refer to the reason for the dramatic changes? It was impossible to tell with the information he had.
âHere, be careful, those âbeastsâ went far away.â
âHoney, can we still go back to the âcentral cityâ?â
A man and a womanâs conversation came from the deep area of the passage.
âUghh, we canât go back temporarily, we can only escape to the ground first. How do did those âbeastsâ rush out, there was such a strong wall blocking them.â
âLixiang, donât be afraid, Dad will take us out.â
Su Xiao who was in the passage frowned as he listened to the sound which was from a family of three, the parent and the daughter.
Su Xiao knew a lot of information from those words.
In the deeper area of the 24th district, there may be a large number of ghouls, and the âcentral cityâ from the coupleâs words may be the deepest part of the 24th district.
The two also mentioned the âbeastsâ.
How could there be a beast underground? If âbeastâ is a metaphor, then Su Xiao thinks of a possibility. Those ghouls who wore grass skirts should be what they called âbeastsâ.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and the couple walked to the entrance with their daughters.
What caught their eye was a figure wearing a white trench coat with a sharp blade in his hand. The sunlight at the entrance made them unable to see the face of the figure, only to see a pair of cold eyes.
The husband spoke, his tone changed, and his eyes were helpless.
âHoney, it seems that we can only fight.â
The couple stood in front of their daughter, she had short hair, small body, watery eyes, which made her extremely cute.
âCan you let us go, if we fight, it will not end well for you as well, zero team member.â
The male ghoulâs kagune appeared it was koukaku, it seemed that he had at least two kakuhou, with one in each shoulder.
Two gray-white kagune swords were formed which were wrapped the manâs arms.
Kakuja! This ghoul must be a kakuja, and his strength was around the SS level. It could be seen from the standing pose that he was not a fool as he should be professionally trained.
After the male ghoul showed his kagune, the female ghoulâs kagune also appeared.
The female ghoul was ukaku, a pair of huge red wing spread behind her body, at least three meters in diameter.
The larger kagune, the higher the concentration of Rc cells in ghoulâs body.
This ghoul couple was surprisingly SS-class ghouls, and they were supposed to cooperate well from seeing their actions.
Couples lived with each other every day, it was not surprising that they could cooperate well.
âPlease, we donât want to hurt you. Our family has never eaten humans. we only ate those ghouls who died.â
The tone of the female ghoul seemed to pray.
âWhat can I get if I let you go?â
The couple looked at each other.
âWe just want to leave the 24th district, why do you have to kill us? I have never seen you in the zero team.â
The temper of the male ghoul was not that good, as the killing in his eyes was surging.
Su Xiaoâs mouth curled up, and held the dragon flash in his hand tightly, dragon flash made a clear sound.
Without knowing why Su Xiao felt that there was something alive in the dragon flash, it became easier to use each time.
When he guarded the back door of Aogiri tree stronghold in the 11th district, he actually had the illusion that dragon flash was cooperating with him.
Su Xiao smiled bitterly and shook his head. How could the sword cooperate with him in a fight? This was just a dead object.
Even if the knife can really gain consciousness, it is not something that dragon flash could obtain.
Su Xiao smile and dragon flashâs slashing sound made the ghoul couple have a numb feeling. The little girl was even hiding behind her mother as if Su Xiao was a beast.
The intuition of ghouls was more acute than that of the beasts. The ghoulâs couple feels that the human in front of them may have slaughtered their peers in large amounts, and the number was far beyond their imagination.
The ghoul couple was a little bit afraid, they were not afraid of fighting, not afraid of dying, both of them were SS-class ghouls.
But their daughter was hiding behind them. If they fight with dangerous enemies, their daughters will be in danger. After all, the sword has no eyes.
The feeling Su Xiao gave the ghouls couple now was not âtoo dangerousâ, but super dangerous.
âYouâre after the kakuhou, arenât you? If you let my wife and daughter leave, I can give you the kakuhou.â
This man was a ghoul, but he had the responsibility of a man.
When women just wanted to talk, they were stared by the men, and women ghoul was afraid to speak.
Little girl grabbed his fatherâs clothes and shook her head with tears.
Su Xiao was speechless. The family of three in front of him only needed a producer and a camera.
âWhat happened in the deeper area of the 24th district.â
Su Xiao suddenly spoke, which made the female ghoul a little happy, as long as they can communicate, there will be a chance.
The male ghoul just wanted to talk, and his wife quickly stopped him.
âHoney, the âKingâ of the previous generation has abandoned us. The âKingâ of this generation is not strong enough to lead us. Now we are free people and no longer need to be faithful to him.â
After listening to his wife, the man closed his eyes with some pain.
The female ghoul revealed some guilty in her eyes, sometimes women could give up a lot of things for their children.
âMr. Investigator, the âbeastsâ in the deeper area of the 24th district has been released. I donât know whether have you seen ghouls looked like primitive people. Now the âcentral cityâ is occupied by the group of âbeastsâ.
They were different from us. We were the same as humans except for eating people.â
Even if the couple agrees to answer the Su Xiao question, they all gave brief answers.
âWhere does the âbeastâ come from, and who is the two âkingsâ you just mentioned.â
Su Xiaoâs two questions seemed to make the couple hard to answer.
âThe beasts came from the deeper area of the earth. I donât know the specific information. As for the two kings, itâs a long story.
The âkingâ is the leader of the ghoul, and the âkingâ of the previous generation abandoned us. The king of the previous generation is called Yoshimura Kuzen⌠â
A loud of slapping sound came.
The man slapped his wife.
âYou forgot who saved our lives. You forgot that who specially sent us medicine when our daughter got sick, it was her father. Without that person, our daughter may have died. If it wasnât for the current king having hostility with her father, we would have long been loyal to her.â
The man looked painful, after slapping his wife, he seemed to use all his strength.
The female ghoul looked at the ground and stopped talking, her face was full of guilt.
Blood splattered, and a bloody kakuhou was thrown at Su Xiao.
âThis kakuhou is yours, let my wife and daughter go.â
Su Xiao took over kakuhou and did not give way.
âIt seems that you know a lot of secrets. I can let you go and provide you with a safe place, but I need some information.
Donât underestimate the world on the ground. SS-class ghouls liked without a large group to take cover will soon become Quinque.â
When male ghoul just wanted to refuse, they found that Su Xiaoâs eyes were more and more dangerous.
âYour daughter is so cute, itâs a pity to let her die, isnât it?â
The expression of male ghoul was distorted, as he was eager to swallow Su Xiao. After ten seconds, the male ghoul sighed and chose to compromise.
