"Yes, a well, a deep well that leads underground. These 'primitive species' came from there. What we have to do is to drive these 'primitive species' back to that well."
After listening to Arima Kisho's description, the expression on Su Xiao's face seemed to say, 'You're fucking kidding me.'
There are at least thousands of 'primitive species' in the underground city. Not to mention fighting these ghouls, as long as their position is exposed now, the two of them will definitely die without a burial place.
"Arima, I wish you success."
Su Xiao patted Arima Kisho on the shoulder, turned around and planned to withdraw. His decisive attitude shocked Arima Kisho.
"Are you going to disobey the General Administration's orders?"
Arima Kisho spoke slowly, without any hint of threat, as if he was testing something.
"It's true that I am a prosecutor, but I will not carry out missions that require death."
After receiving Su Xiao's answer, Arima Kisho's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a different brilliance.
"Disobeying orders from the General Administration will usually lead to expulsion from the General Administration, but the current situation is different. If the two of us don't complete this matter, we will die when we return to the ground."
Su Xiao stopped and looked at Arima Kisho. Today's Arima Kisho was a little abnormal, but he couldn't notice any difference. It was just an intuition.
"What's the meaning?"
"Do you think the ghouls here are normal? Most investigators will never see the original species.
If I guess correctly, your mission this time is to reinforce me, and the General Administration will arrange one or two special classes for you. Is it Kurowan Iwa? Kiyoko Yasuura? It may also be Marute Sai, but the others are unlikely."
Arima Kisho has been deep in Area 24. He had a phone call with Su Xiao before, but then lost contact with the outside world because there was no signal underground. He actually guessed the special investigator sent by the General Bureau to Area 24. There was nothing fishy about it.
Lidya Su would never believe it.
"What do you want to say?"
"You must complete this mission. If you can return to the ground alive, pretend that nothing happened. Remember, even if you are unwilling, you must pretend to obey."
Su Xiao stared at Arima Kisho, thinking about whether Arima Kisho was trustworthy.
In the original work, Arima Kisho always behaves like a chess piece and obeys Shukiyoshi's words.
But now it seems that Arima Kisho is not the 'gun' in anyone's hands. He should know many secrets of CCG. If he is disobedient, he will be eliminated.
"Answer me a question, if I return to the ground now, who will I send to kill me when I am with Shuji?"
Arima Kishou breathed a long sigh of relief, as if he was examining Su Xiao before.
"Ghoul."
These two simple words reveal too much information.
"What if the two of us join forces to resist?"
Su Xiao still doesn't know whether Arima Kisho is trustworthy, he is testing.
"If the two of us join forces, there is hope of survival, but after that we will face an overwhelming pursuit, and those enemies are beyond your expectation."
Silence, a long silence.
Except for the occasional low roar of the 'primitive species', the surroundings were completely silent.
"The two of us driving these ghouls away are asking for death. We have to find other ways."
The attitude shown by Arima Kisho just now was almost a kind of implicit solicitation. After Su Xiao said, "What if the two of us join forces to resist the order?", Arima Kisho did not show any anger or loyalty to the CCG.
, but clearly answered Su Xiao’s question.
Neither of them knew whether the other was trustworthy, so they could only test each other inadvertently.
Su Xiao thinks that the point mentioned by Kisho Arima just now is quite credible, that is, if you do not complete the order of the General Administration this time, you will be in danger even if you return to the ground.
Su Xiao knows more and more about CCG and has outstanding strength. CCG may want to train him to become the second noble general, an 'obedient' gun.
Arima Kisho's attitude toward the CCG is falsely submissive. This guy must be planning something.
Su Xiao sighed. He had only watched two seasons of the Ghoul anime, but not the subsequent comics. Most of them learned about the Ghoul world through a few words on the forum.
This made him secretly decide that when he returned to the real world this time, he would make up for it in large quantities.
Supplementary episodes are not for entertainment, but for understanding information.
…
Arima Kisho lifted the Kuink box and showed a rare smile, as if he had figured something out.
"We need a plan, and here's what I think..."
Arima Kisho described his plan in detail. It was very simple, using fresh flesh and blood as bait to attract the surrounding primitive species.
The crisis of trust is temporarily lifted, and new problems arise. Where can we find fresh flesh and blood?
"Anyway, leave here first. There is nothing you can do here."
Su Xiao looked around at the primitive species. There were only a few of them, and they would not be discovered as long as they were careful.
"What have you been doing here?"
When Su Xiao found Arima Noble General, he was lying on the roof.
"Ahem~, dehydration and hunger have made me a little exhausted, so I will rest here temporarily.
Let’s leave here first, let’s go find the ‘bait’.”
Arima Kisho was a little embarrassed, after all, it was a shame to be so hungry that he had no strength to wait for death.
Be careful to avoid the primitive species. Both of them have extraordinary skills. In terms of concealment ability, Su Xiao is better than Arima Kisho.
Leaping on the roof of the steel building, Su Xiao arrived at the entrance of the underground city not long after.
He made a standby gesture to Mato Akatsuki and Shizo above, and Su Xiao and Arima Kisho entered the passage.
The fresh flesh and blood used as bait must be found in the underground passages.
After entering the passage, Su Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. Before, she seemed to have turned on the silent mode and had to speak softly.
"Arima, do you know the route? You won't get lost."
Arima Kisho shook his head.
"No, there has been such a huge change in Central City. All the ghouls in the main control room have escaped. Those primitive species cannot control the machinery in the main control room."
It seems that Takashi Arima is very familiar with the underground city in District 24.
Seeing Su Xiao's confusion, Arima Kisho continued.
"Central City is this underground city. This is the largest gathering place of ghouls in Tokyo. Most of the ghouls live here, just like humans living on the ground.
The main control room is a bit complicated to explain. To put it simply, the main control room is one of the most important buildings in the central city. It can control the meat wall in area 24 and make the meat wall constantly change. Because of this, we will install it in the underground passage.
Lost in the middle."
Kisho Arima revealed a secret: the 24 wards under Tokyo are the cities where ghouls live.
Humans live on the ground in Tokyo, and ghouls live underground in Tokyo. It seems that a certain balance has been reached, and only the CCG can maintain this order.
But in Su Xiao's view, this order is a bit distorted. Humans and ghouls are mortal enemies and cannot coexist. The CCG actually allows both parties to coexist forcibly. Why is this?
Su Xiao can now confirm one thing, that is, CCG does not exist to protect humans, or the truth is far more terrifying than imagined.
