At this time, Furuta had multiple identities.
First, he was a logistics member of the "V" organization.
The "V" organization had about dozens of members, basically all with Special Class Investigator level combat power. However, Furuta's current strength was clearly not up to par, so he was only a logistics member.
Of course, it's not impossible that Furuta was deliberately "playing dumb," as not being valued by the "V" organization was more conducive to him carrying out his plan.
His second identity was a student at Kamii University; he was genuinely attending classes there.
His third identity was a member of the "Clowns" organization, where his name was Souta.
His fourth identity was one of the VIPs at the "Ghoul Restaurant."
Despite having so many identities, Furuta did not belong to any single faction; everything he did was for his own plan.
This also proves that Furuta's actions were not primarily driven by a desire to retaliate against Kamishiro Rize from the beginning, but rather that his plan necessitated her sacrifice.
Otherwise, were his multiple identities just for fun?
However, it must be said that Kamishiro Rize was Furuta's childhood friend, so it's impossible that he felt no affection for her.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have helped Kamishiro Rize escape the Washuu Family back then. Of course, it's also possible he had already started planning at that time, as if Kamishiro Rize hadn't left the Washuu Family, he wouldn't have had the opportunity to have Akihiro Kanou use her for experiments.
"Furuta?"
Just then, Kamishiro Rize also noticed Furuta.
Because they weren't far apart, and Kamishiro Rize's sense of smell was naturally keen.
Since he had been seen, Furuta didn't intend to hide anymore.
He noticed that Kamishiro Rize used "Furuta" to address him, unlike before when she always called him "Furuta." It seemed that when he caused the steel beam incident last time, Kamishiro Rize had indeed seen him.
That incident was a failure. Furuta had thought he would succeed smoothly, but he didn't expect Yakuchi Kei to immediately turn back and rescue Kamishiro Rize, even though that kid was almost tortured and devoured by Kamishiro Rize at the time.
Not only did he fail, but Kamishiro Rize also found out he was behind it, so he would definitely be guarded against. It would be incredibly difficult to succeed again.
He knew that Rize was actually very strong when she fought seriously. He wasn't confident in catching Kamishiro Rize without tricks, because Rize could run even if she couldn't win; otherwise, the Washuu Family would have caught her long ago.
Just like during the Anteiku Extermination Battle in the original work, Eto Yoshimura, the One-Eyed Owl, was already much stronger than the aging Non-Killing Owl, but she still secretly used the CCG with Kishou Arima to drive out the Non-Killing Owl. She wasn't confident in catching Yoshimura Kuzen with her own strength alone.
As for why she wanted to catch her father, it was because Kamishiro Rize, who was the experimental subject at the time, had already been rescued and hidden by Yomo Renji. She needed a new experimental subject for Akihiro Kanou to continue creating artificial Half-Ghouls, thereby fulfilling her and Kishou Arima's shared wish: to have a true One-Eyed King ascend the throne they had prepared.
Later, Yoshimura Kuzen was taken by Eto Yoshimura to become the new experimental subject, creating the two artificial Half-Ghouls, Seidou Takizawa and Amon Kotaro...
"Rize, long time no see."
Furuta greeted Kamishiro Rize with a smile.
As if he hadn't done anything before.
"Hehe ~"
Kamishiro Rize didn't say much in response, just chuckled.
"By the way, this is..."
At this moment, Furuta looked at Yakuchi Kei, "Ah! I remember you, we met in the cafeteria before."
Yakuchi Kei immediately felt that Furuta was being overly dramatic.
"Yes, I didn't expect to meet again so soon."
Yakuchi Kei said casually.
"You two already knew each other? That's quite a coincidence then."
Kamishiro Rize feigned surprise in her tone.
"But Rize, you shouldn't be a student at this school, right? Why are you suddenly here today? Could it be that you missed me?"
Furuta started again.
His personality was like that, a bit eccentric, but that was just on the surface...
"No, if it weren't for this sudden encounter today, I would have almost forgotten about you. I came to this school to play with my boyfriend."
Kamishiro Rize said with a full smile.
Every word was meant to sting, clearly intended to deliberately retaliate against Furuta.
Not only that, but Kamishiro Rize also linked arms with Yakuchi Kei to prove her relationship with him.
She had no intention of questioning Furuta about why he did what he did, because she thought such a childish question was meaningless; Furuta would surely just feign ignorance.
"..."
At this moment, Yakuchi Kei looked at Kamishiro Rize with some surprise.
Was she really going to provoke Furuta like this?
"Ah haha, then I wish you and your boyfriend a pleasant time."
Furuta said with a forced smile.
"Thank you, then goodbye, Furuta."
With that, Kamishiro Rize linked arms with Yakuchi Kei and turned to leave.
As Yakuchi Kei and Kamishiro Rize departed, Furuta silently walked to a nearby tree, leaning one hand against the trunk, his other hand tightly clenched into a fist.
His face immediately turned grim and somewhat distorted, as he continuously cursed Yakuchi Kei under his breath, "Die, die, die, die, die, die, die..."
Although Furuta's personality was like this, it would not affect his resolve for his plan.
No matter how much he cared about Kamishiro Rize being with another man, it only served as an excuse for his plan, allowing him to numb his heart and deceive himself into believing that he was carrying out those plans for revenge against Kamishiro Rize.
Just like how Furuta boasted to Jinmu Ken in the original work about marrying Rize, having a bunch of children, and even inviting Jinmu Ken to be his and Rize's best man.
But he was purely just boasting. Think about it, he had already made Rize the "Dragon Core," so what marriage could there be? He couldn't even touch Rize.
The real him had long since given up hope, despairing of this world.
He only hoped that either the world would be destroyed, or his death would lead to Jinmu Ken's ascension to the supreme throne.
