Amon Kotaro was about to continue the pursuit, but he found that "Jason" had disappeared without a trace.
"Damn it! He still got away!"
Amon Kotaro said indignantly.
"It's alright, Amon, we really couldn't catch 'Jason'."
Kureo Mado was quite calm.
His Quinque had already been destroyed by "Jason", which indicated that "Jason's" strength had exceeded their expectations.
This was just a Quinque he brought casually; it was fine if it was broken. He had many other Quinques in his collection.
It was also because he underestimated "Jason's" strength that this happened.
"Yes."
Amon Kotaro nodded.
"We should actually thank Associate Investigator Ameno for helping us figure out that guy's strength, otherwise, we might have been in danger."
Kureo Mado looked at Yakuchi Kei .
This young man was clearly still a newcomer, yet his strength was unexpectedly strong; he could confront an S-class "Jason" head-on without falling behind.
There were some other individuals within the CCG who were as inexplicably strong as Yakuchi Kei . Could this young man also be from the same place as that guy?
"Indeed, thank you, Associate Investigator Ameno."
Amon Kotaro also turned to Yakuchi Kei and said.
He couldn't help but feel admiration for Yakuchi Kei ; the other party was just a newcomer, yet his performance was much stronger than his own just now.
"It's nothing."
Yakuchi Kei said blandly.
"Mr. Mado, Mr. Amon, what should we do now?"
At this moment, Kiguchi Asaki asked Kureo Mado and Amon Kotaro with a worried expression.
Since they failed to capture "Gecko" this time, "Gecko" probably already knew that he had conspired with the CCG Ghoul Investigator, and would definitely come for revenge.
Among Ghouls, especially among "colleagues" of Aogiri Tree, Ōmori Yakumo was generally referred to as "Gecko".
"Yes, what should we do?"
Kureo Mado pondered for a moment, then his expression suddenly turned into a sneer, "I don't know what to do, I only know that you are useless from now on."
"Wha—!..."
Kiguchi Asaki's eyes widened instantly, temporarily unable to react. Did the other party mean to eliminate him?
"..."
Amon Kotaro remained silent, but he was certainly thinking something.
Mr. Mado used Doctor Desiguchi, and after interacting with Doctor Desiguchi these past few days, he didn't feel like he was a very bad Ghoul; on the contrary, he was very friendly to humans.
But Mr. Mado had always taught him with the "ghoul countermeasures law": once a target was determined to be a Ghoul, it lost all legal protection.
In Mr. Mado's eyes, all Ghouls had no reason to live; they all deserved to die.
Even though Amon Kotaro felt a little reluctant, he was willing to follow Mr. Mado's will, so it was impossible for him to open his mouth to dissuade Mr. Mado.
"Amon!"
At this moment, Kureo Mado called out to Amon Kotaro.
Because the Quinque he brought had been destroyed by "Jason", he could only let Amon Kotaro act.
Generally speaking, a Ghoul Investigator who has lost his "Quinque" is almost powerless to resist in front of a Ghoul.
It could be said that the only exception among Ghoul Investigators was Arima Kishou; he once drove away a Ghoul with an ordinary umbrella, but his physical fitness was completely on a different level from ordinary humans, or even half-humans.
"Yes!"
Amon Kotaro's heart no longer hesitated, and he firmly obeyed Kureo Mado's instructions.
He gripped the "Doujima 1/2" in his hand and walked towards Kiguchi Asaki.
"This… this isn't what we agreed upon!"
Kiguchi Asaki's expression instantly turned panicked. He instinctively wanted to escape, but there was no retreat left.
There were three Ghoul Investigators in front of him; he had nowhere to go!
Kiguchi Asaki could only cower in place, filled with regret.
If only he had known, he wouldn't have actively sought cooperation with them. In his mind, Ghoul Investigators were trustworthy, but he didn't expect that not only did he fail to eliminate the hidden danger of "Gecko", but he would also be trapped here.
The most crucial thing was that he still had a wife and daughter!
Whether it was "Gecko" or Kureo Mado, both knew of his wife and daughter's existence. It didn't matter if he died; he didn't want his wife and daughter to be killed too!
"Trusting a Ghoul? How disgusting."
Kureo Mado sneered menacingly.
As he sneered, his eyes became one large and one small, filled with disgust.
He didn't even see Kiguchi Asaki as a human, or rather, Ghouls were not humans to begin with; they were all a bunch of damned trash, so there was no point in talking about trust.
At this moment, Kureo Mado was already contemplating making a new Quinque, using this guy's Kagune and Kakuho.
Using the Quinque made from this guy to hunt down that mother and daughter, letting this family reunite perfectly, just thinking about it felt exhilarating.
"No! Don't!!!"
Kiguchi Asaki cried out in despair.
However, just as Amon Kotaro raised his Quinque and was about to swing it at Kiguchi Asaki, Yakuchi Kei , who was behind him, suddenly spoke:
"Wait."
"What?"
Amon Kotaro's movements stopped instantly. He didn't expect Associate Investigator Ameno to suddenly call out to him.
Kureo Mado also looked at Yakuchi Kei with a puzzled expression.
"'Jason' hasn't been captured yet. This guy still has value to be exploited. 'Jason' will definitely come back for revenge, so killing him now would be too much of a waste."
Yakuchi Kei said with a calm expression: "Although that guy escaped quite fast, I won't give him another chance next time."
"..."
Kureo Mado was silent for a moment.
Amon Kotaro felt that Yakuchi Kei made sense and immediately hesitated, but he couldn't make the decision himself, so he could only look at Kureo Mado.
"Alright, I'll listen to you. If you can catch 'Jason', that would be best."
Kureo Mado seemed to have compromised.
But in reality, he was already suspecting whether Yakuchi Kei intended to shield the Ghoul.
Because his intuition was exceptionally sharp, just like in the original work where he suspected Kaneki Ken was a Ghoul the moment they met. If Kaneki Ken hadn't possessed Kamishiro Rize's bloodline and avoided the RC Gate detection at that time, then...
At this moment, Kiguchi Asaki's body was somewhat limp, and he realized he was already sweating a lot.
But he couldn't relax yet, because his death sentence had only been postponed.
Compared to Kureo Mado, Amon Kotaro seemed rather naive.
It was also because Associate Investigator Ameno's strength was indeed strong enough, so he believed that what Associate Investigator Ameno said was not problematic. Since he had the ability to catch "Jason", then it was naturally worth a try.
Moreover, Associate Investigator Ameno's expressionless face looked very rational, like someone who would be cruel and ruthless towards Ghouls, just like Mr. Mado.
