The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

Without any dissatisfaction with Lin Qiao's words, Fangcun Gongshan taught his coffee skills with a look of satisfaction, as if he had seen a like-minded junior.

She made some space to the side and extended an invitation to him.

"How about it, do you want to try it?"

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."

Putting down the empty coffee cup, Lin Qiao agreed without hesitation.

I walked over and, following the store manager's instructions, put an appropriate amount of coffee beans into the retro-looking hand-cranked grinder, then turned the handle of the grinder.

——He is familiar with this.

It was almost the same feeling when I turned the belt normally, except that this grinder couldn't play music right now, but the feeling was the same... This might be what is called fate.

He thought absentmindedly, a familiar happy tune playing in his mind, and his hands moved faster.

"Speaking of which, Ishimori, why did you suddenly want to learn how to make coffee?"

Lin Qiao thought for a moment and said, "It can't be considered sudden. I've thought about making my own coffee before, pretending to be elegant or something..."

But later I found that I had to buy a bunch of professional tools, and the process was extremely cumbersome. Plus, apart from appearing elegant and impressing myself, it didn't seem to have any practical use, so I gave up.

To sum it up in one sentence: poor and lazy.

"As for now, on the one hand, it's just my interest, and on the other hand, I probably want to apologize to Kaneki-san for what happened last time."

Lin Qiao shrugged helplessly. Even if it was an emergency and they did it to save people, it was still too much to just hang someone upside down and bleed him without saying anything.

Even if the other party expresses understanding after understanding the whole story and does not intend to pursue the matter, an apology is still necessary anyway.

"If that guy is still a human, we probably just need to find a better restaurant to treat him to a meal... But in that case, he probably won't appear in the Anding District."

As for now, it's not impossible, but with his personality, it's probably hard for him to accept eating people...

After taking a sip of the coffee she brewed, Lin Qiao showed a somewhat helpless expression. Although it was the same coffee beans, the final taste was completely different.

It can’t be said to be unpalatable, but it definitely can’t be said to be delicious either.

And it also feels like something is missing.

But just when he was about to try again, the door of the coffee shop opened, and in walked an angry-looking Kirishima Touka.

Lin Qiao: "Welcome, one female guest, please come in..."

"...Stop talking so smoothly to me!"

"It's true that you said this as soon as we met... Hey, hey, why do you, a girl, always like to do things directly?"

Completely ignoring Lin Qiao's exaggerated tone, Dong Xiang, who was on the verge of exploding, pulled his arm and was about to go out... out... ?

I tried to pull it...but it wouldn't move.

I pulled again...but I still couldn't pull it.

It's like a young child who insists on dragging the adults at home out, but the adults just want to stay at home.

Seeing the smiling expression on Lin Qiao's face, she became furious and fiercely shook Lin Qiao's hand away.

"So why did you suddenly get mad at me? I was just learning how to make coffee from the manager, and I didn't do anything else... And can you please stay away from me? You smell a bit...strong."

"How dare you say that? Whose fault do you think this is!?"

Dong Xiang was completely furious after hearing Lin Qiao's words. It was like she knew what her current state was, but wasn't it all caused by the guy in front of her who was still pretending to be innocent?

"Dong Xiang."

"whispering sound!"

Seeing the store manager speak, no matter how unhappy she was, she could only suppress her anger and wait for Lin Qiao to look at her.

"Ugh....."

Looking at the scene in front of him, Yoshimura Kousen couldn't help but sigh and instantly felt that he had aged a little.

The saying "enemies always come together" probably applies to the current situation. One of them is easily irritated, and the other one is getting angry too.

The most important thing is that these two met each other.

He did not suspect that Lin Qiao framed Dong Xiang. Although the communication time was relatively short, he was able to understand the other party's character to some extent. He was not harmless, but overall he was not a bad person.

If there are no special circumstances, I probably won't do anything extreme...but other than that, it's hard to say what I will do.

And although Dongxiang looked very angry, she did not look like she was hurt.

"So what happened?"

"Let me explain."

Just then, Sifang Lianshi, who also smelled like this, walked in.

Chapter 38 The so-called evidence

"I can release poison gas that erases memories."

These were the exact words that Lin Qiao had said to everyone in the Anding District in order to prevent Dikou and her daughter from being exiled to District 24.

Although what he released was not real poison gas, he was too lazy to explain the setting of nebula gas.

Besides, there is not much point in telling this to a group of men. The actual effect is not much different anyway. He did erase the memories of Mado Wuxu and others that day.

As for Dong Xiang's words, he explained it as inhaling some residual gas, which led to the loss of some short-term memory.

only--

This kind of outrageous thing is obviously not so easy to believe. Even with the example of Dong Xiang, no one dares to be careless when it comes to their own safety.

In other words, evidence is needed.

"You want all my evidence? If you want, I can give it all to you! Go find it, I've left it all there!"

Amid the incredulous looks from others, Lin Qiao gave them an address.

People in Anding District are no strangers to this place. It is an unfinished building that has been rotten for almost five years.

Because I was a little curious about what he could bring out, Anding District believed him and decided to take a trip.

...At least if possible, they don't want to send Dikou and her daughter to that damn place in District 24. They would feel guilty about it.

As for the candidates, it would naturally be Renji Shiho who has been on field work... plus Touka Kirishima who volunteered for the Fueguchi mother and daughter.

"If you want to bring them all back, I personally suggest you drive a small truck there...and be mentally prepared.

Although he was not sure why Lin Qiao said that, Sifang Lianshi still did it.

After driving all the way...

Since it wasn’t too far, we arrived there quickly.

However, when they arrived at the floor that Lin Qiao mentioned, what they saw was a scene that looked like a picture scroll from hell.

Lying on the ground were several people wrapped in white spider silk like dumplings, with only their heads sticking out.

If they can still be called "human beings".

Regarding the origin of mankind, the religious view is that humans were created by God... Assuming this is true, then when God created these people, he must have been a little drunk.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it has the appearance of an ancient god.

A foul-smelling yellow-brown liquid flowed out from the cracks in the cocoon, and a lot of it had even dried and was completely stuck to it.

Judging from the looks of it, it shouldn’t have been accumulated for just one or two days.

After a moment of silence, the two people present seemed to understand why Lin Qiao himself did not come.

Got scammed...

The calm and steady Shiho Renshi is still okay, but the more irritable Dongxiang has decided to go back and have a good "chat" with someone.

but

Although I feel very unhappy, now that I'm here, I can't give up halfway. I have to figure out what happened no matter what.

Only when they suppressed the feeling of discomfort and nausea, opened one of the cocoons and woke up the person inside, did they discover that what was more shocking than the ugliness of the appearance was the distortion of the body.

The man's two arms were completely glued to his body, his palms seemed to be split in the middle, and several fingers were completely connected together. Between the fingers grew thin membranes of flesh similar to those of a frog's webbed feet.

It can be seen that it is definitely not stuck with some 502 glue, it is more like some kind of innate growth.

The whole person seemed to have walked out of some indescribable novel, with his entire body filled with distortions that could make one's sanity plummet.

'What the hell is this?'

Kirishima Touka swallowed her saliva unconsciously. Even though she was a ghoul who was used to seeing blood flying everywhere, she couldn't help but feel her scalp tingling when faced with such a scene.

It’s so hellish!

After these people woke up, they saw Kirishima Touka and Yoho Renji in front of them, and their reactions were very different...it could even be said to be completely opposite.

Some people suffered mental breakdowns and cried loudly, muttering words like "spider devil" in hoarse and unclear voices.

Some people were completely confused and had no idea what was going on. They knew nothing when asked and couldn't even remember who they were.

In addition, the people who were found were generally suffering from malnutrition and the complications caused by it... There is no doubt that the reason why they became like this is closely related to Lin Qiao.

But let’s put aside other things for now, one thing is certain, that is, Lin Qiao does have the ability to erase other people’s memories.

When Dong Xiang thought that she might have experienced something similar to those people, she felt a sense of fear and disgust.

.....But what really made her scalp tingle was still to come.

"Let's take them all back." After some thought, Sifang Lianshi made this decision.

Because they used kagune when breaking the spider silk cocoon, and their faces were seen by others.

Even though he sympathized with these people's plight from a personal perspective, if he didn't find a way to deal with it, once these people escaped and chose to call the police, the consequences would be completely fatal.

And if I take it back, I can also verify the authenticity of Lin Qiao's ability.

The two of them worked together to move them to the pickup truck that came, but in order to avoid any accidents on the way back, they chose to knock those people unconscious again.

Fortunately, it was late at night and there were not many people around, so even though it took them quite a while to move everyone up, no one noticed what was happening here.

Although I wore gloves when carrying the items and did not come into direct contact with the smelly excrement, my body was still inevitably stained with the smell during the process of carrying and returning.

For ghouls with a keen sense of smell, it's a nightmare!

There is no need to elaborate on what happened after that. They endured the smell and returned to the Anding District.

.......

"So you must have done it on purpose!"

After taking a shower, the strange smell on her body had disappeared, replaced by the scent of shower gel.

But some psychological shadows still linger.

"Even if you say so, I'm just meeting your demands... Putting aside the facts, did I lie?" Lin Qiao looked indifferent.

Although he did deliberately conceal some relevant information, it was all harmless stuff.

Compared to QB's behavior of deceiving teenage girls, he still has a conscience.

"And I remember that you took the initiative to go there, right?"

Lin Qiao waved her hand as if to clarify.

"..."

That was true, but seeing this guy looking nonchalant, as if he was just there to watch their show, she was furious.

"So, what's the reason?"

With one hand across her chest, after calming down, Kirishima Touka stared straight into Lin Qiao's eyes.

"You are all human, right? Why would you do something like that?"

It's not that I'm trying to stand up for injustice, I just find it a little... scary that Lin Qiao looked so relaxed after doing that.

"I can skip this by saying it involves the vile psychological problems of adults... Well, it seems that I can't."

"Are you an idiot? That's a problem if it works!"

"..."
