If Kaneki Ken hadn't been unable to bring himself to harm humans, he would definitely have bitten into Satou Kaede's carotid artery. With that bite, even if it didn't kill Satou Kaede instantly, without timely hemostasis and medical attention, Satou Kaede would absolutely not have survived for two minutes.
Then, Kaneki Ken suddenly used Satou Kaede's body as a springboard. He forcefully pushed off Satou Kaede's body with his feet and then somersaulted in the air. Finally, he landed at the spot where Masato Fueguchi had fallen.
Looking at the bullet hole on the forehead of Masato Fueguchi's mask, Kaneki Ken's heart plunged into an abyss.
Last time, because of his turning a blind eye and inaction, Madam Ryoko died. This time? Was Masato Fueguchi's death also related to him?
"Why? Why did you have to kill him?" Kaneki Ken turned and glared at Satou Kaede, questioning him.
Satou Kaede's expression was pained as he clutched his bitten shoulder. Satou Kaede's shoulder, along with his coat, had been bitten off. It was estimated that Kaneki Ken had swallowed it all without thinking.
Facing Kaneki Ken's questioning, Satou Kaede found it very strange. He didn't understand why Kaneki Ken was asking this. In his opinion, {Ghoul} investigators existed solely to eliminate {Ghouls}.
Furthermore, {Ghouls} were universally recognized as enemies of humanity, so being eliminated was a normal occurrence.
"Because we are {Ghoul} investigators! Our duty and mission are to eliminate {Ghouls} and maintain peace and stability in human society!" Amon Koutarou answered Kaneki Ken's question at this moment.
"Then do I also have to kill you? Can't humans and {Ghouls} coexist peacefully? You've already caused a child to lose her mother, and now you've caused that child to lose her father. Perhaps it's not humans who should resent {Ghouls}, but you investigators who deny them outright!" Kaneki Ken questioned again.
Amon Koutarou found Kaneki Ken's strange words bewildering. The idea of peaceful coexistence between humans and {Ghouls} seemed like a fantasy.
"What are you talking about?! You {Ghoul} brat! {Ghouls} have to eat humans to survive. In the eyes of {Ghouls}, humans are food. A creature that can only survive by eating humans, even if it looks like a human, is still a monster. How many innocent human lives have {Ghouls} taken? You're actually asking humans and {Ghouls} to get along. Do you think that's possible? You idiot!" Satou Kaede said to Kaneki Ken very displeasedly at this moment, finally calling Kaneki Ken an idiot.
Hearing this, Kaneki Ken did not retort. Kaneki Ken admitted that there were indeed vicious {Ghouls} among the {Ghoul} population, but there were also {Ghouls} who wanted to coexist peacefully with humans and chose to survive by feeding on dead bodies. Just as there were bad people and good people among humans.
One shouldn't negate the existence of good people because of one bad person. This would be unfair to {Ghouls} and unfair to humans.
While speaking, Satou Kaede kept an eye on Kaneki Ken, simultaneously preparing to quickly draw the magazine, reload, and fire.
Just as Satou Kaede reached for the magazine, Kaneki Ken's Kagune suddenly pierced towards Satou Kaede's hand.
With his arm pierced, Satou Kaede's magazine dropped to the ground.
