Tokyo Ghoul: Starting with the Twin Kamui

She thought it would be best if these guys died; they were all idiots who wouldn't learn their lesson until they saw the coffin!

And it doesn't matter if they die, since they're all useless scum to society anyway.

............

Ah Liang and his men had sped up and left the police cars behind them far behind, then hid in a small alley.

"Hahaha! This is so exciting! Those cops can't catch us at all, it's so much fun!"

"Let's go mess with those guys again later!"

Both the man with the rooster-shaped haircut and the man with the buzz cut felt like they had just had a blast.

As luck would have it, Fura Taishi happened to be passing by this alley.

Seeing two familiar motorcycles parked there, he knew that Ah Liang and his gang had gone off to race again.

"You've gone to do those dangerous things again..."

Fura Taishi sighed immediately.

"Taichi, what's been going on with you lately? I heard you've actually started going to school regularly?"

"That boy with the rooster-shaped haircut asked, puzzled."

"Yeah, Taishi, why are you being so well-behaved? Did something happen that upset you?"

The man with the buzz cut asked Fura Taishi with some concern.

"Taisho has become incredibly boring these days..."

Akira Sasada complained.

However, she did not voice her suspicions in front of Akira and the others, regarding Fura Taishi's crush on Sanba.

"Taichi, if anything really happens, we'll do everything we can to help you."

A-liang was very concerned about Fura Taishi's condition.

Fura Taishi was immediately moved. Although he disapproved of dangerous behavior like street racing, he couldn't bring himself to scold his good friends.

However... he definitely still couldn't bring himself to say anything about Sanbo Lihua.

Just as he was about to make up some excuse, a strange figure suddenly appeared in front of him, behind Ah Liang and the others.

She was wearing a large white cloak and a Halloween pumpkin headpiece, and she looked quite petite.

"Lantern" Three Waves of Beauty

"who are you?!"

Looking at this strange and somewhat frightening figure, Fura Taishi immediately asked.

Ah Liang and the others turned around and saw the strange man, realizing that something was wrong.

The strange man wearing the pumpkin headgear did not answer, but instead approached step by step.

"What? Dressed up like this, are you here to cause trouble?"

The thug with the rooster-like head picked up the iron rod from the ground and walked over.

"Keng!"

However, the next moment, the iron rod in his hand broke in two.

What was seen was a pink tail-like kagune released from the tailbone of the pumpkin-headed monster. The advantage of this type of kagune is its balance, being well-rounded in terms of attack power, defense, speed, and endurance. However, its disadvantage is that it lacks a special strength and is difficult to launch a decisive attack.

The rooster-headed thug's iron rod was easily broken by this tail-heh-heh-zi.

"A monster...what kind of monster is this?!"

The rooster-headed thug was so frightened that he fell to the ground with a thud, his courage completely shattered.

"Quick! Run!"

Fura Taishi was the first to realize that if they didn't run, they would all die here!

A-Liang, Sasada Aki, and the crew-cut thug were stunned for a moment before quickly running off in another direction.

But the rooster-headed thug was still sitting on the ground, and Fura Taishi, unwilling to abandon him, rushed over to save him.

However, the pumpkin-headed monster was obviously much faster than him. Before he had run more than a few steps, the pumpkin-headed monster's tail serpent was about to pierce the rooster-headed thug.

Just then, the rooster-headed thug suddenly felt someone grab his arm.

"Fortunately, I caught up..."

Uchiha Byakuya grabbed the rooster-headed thug's arm and led him away from the pumpkin-headed monster's attack.

On the other side, Arima Kishou had already appeared behind the pumpkin-headed monster.

However, the pumpkin-headed monster reacted quite quickly, its tail kagune immediately turning around to attack Arima Kishou behind it.

Arima Kishou perfectly dodged several attacks from the pumpkin-headed monster, who then realized something was wrong and decisively chose to retreat.

Just as Arima Kishou was about to take out the quinque from his cello to fight, his opponent had already jumped onto the roof and escaped.

"Can't catch up."

Arima Kishou walked up to Uchiha Byakuya and said.

"There's no need to chase after her anymore; the clues are becoming clearer and clearer."

Uchiha Byakuya said calmly.

[Ding! Host has successfully completed "Mission Two: Protect the delinquents led by Fura Taishi from harm by Sanami Reika," and has received a reward of 10 attribute points!]

Task 2 is complete; Task 3 is now activated.

Chapter 27 The V Organization's "Cleaners"

[Task 3: Change the death fate of Sanbo Lihua]

[Task Reward: 20 Attribute Points]

Uchiha Byakuya guessed that the mission would end after "Mission Three" was completed.

The task of changing the fate of Miyabi Reika is neither simple nor difficult...

"Hey...can anyone tell me what just happened?!"

Just then, Fura Taishi, still shaken, asked them.

Uchiha Byakuya's thoughts about the system were pulled back. He turned to look at Fura Taishi and explained the situation, "You all know what ghouls are, right? That guy just now was a ghoul, and a ghoul of extraordinary danger at that."

"A ghoul...?"

Fura Taishi then realized that the strange man from before did indeed fit the image of a ghoul.

These students were so well protected at school and by the CCG that they had never seen a ghoul on a regular basis.

Faced with that dangerous situation all of a sudden, their minds went blank.

It was only then that Fura Taishi and the rooster-headed delinquent realized that if Uchiha and Arima hadn't come to their rescue, they would have all become the ghoul's food.

"Let's go back and get some rest. We can go to class as usual tomorrow."

At this moment, Uchiha Byakuya spoke to Fura Taishi.

After saying that, he and Arima Kishou left first.

He didn't need to protect Fura Taishi and the other delinquents all the time, and after his and Arima Kishou's appearance to stop them, Miha Reika wouldn't dare to show herself as the "Lantern" ghoul for a while.

Because Miha Reika could definitely tell that Uchiha Byakuya and Arima Kishou's skills were far beyond those of ordinary students, and the fact that the two transferred to the school at the same time was highly suspicious, she had basically assumed that the two of them were CCG investigators.

"Why... why are you two, Uchiha and Arima, so calm after something so terrifying just happened?"

Fura Taishi asked, puzzled and surprised.

Aren't these two new transfer students afraid at all when facing ghouls who kill and eat people?

And they just displayed amazing skills, even driving away that pumpkin-headed ghoul. Just who are these two new classmates?!

"..."

However, neither Uchiha Byakuya nor Arima Kishou answered, but calmly continued walking away.

Before the mission is over, they are not allowed to reveal the investigators' identities to ordinary people.

............

"I'm going back to my apartment in Zone 2 now. Ma Er is waiting for you."

On the way to the subway station, Uchiha Byakuya spoke to Arima Kishou.

"I'm fine with anything. By the way, how did Uchiha Gōjū predict that 'Lantern' would attack those delinquents at this time?"

Arima Kishou asked expressionlessly.

"It's partly based on intuition and partly on reasoning."

Of course, the biggest part relies on God's perspective, but Uchiha Byakuya would never say that.

“When school let out in the afternoon, we had already identified Sanbo as one of the suspects. Then, when we were talking about joining Fura Taishi’s delinquent group at the classroom door, I noticed that Sanbo’s eyes were looking in our direction. My intuition is very sharp. That look told me that Sanbo looked down on and even hated Fura Taishi and his delinquents.”
