Looking at the pool of blood on the ground, Lin Yi was lost in thought.
"The current Kichimura Washuu probably hasn't reached the peak of his combat power yet," Lin Yi thought. "In the original work, he also fused with Rize Kamishiro's, which greatly increased his strength."
Otherwise, he wouldn't think and act like this, only scheming in secret.
Rize Kamishiro's life shouldn't have ended. Lin Yi underestimated her will to survive, but since she escaped, he no longer cared. He had already missed the best opportunity.
Since he couldn't take advantage in Kichimura Washuu's presence, and the V organization hadn't discovered him, this "insignificant" person, hunting down and killing Rize Kamishiro, would be impossible to succeed in the future.
However, he didn't leave empty-handed. His Quinque devoured one of Rize Kamishiro's arms, absorbing some RC cells and gaining some of her abilities. That was enough.
A series of urgent sirens sounded.
It seemed that the explosion of the vehicle and the alarm of the building had attracted attention. Lin Yi's thoughts were interrupted. He looked at the mess on his body, sighed, and disappeared into the night.
He would privately report this matter to the CCG and try to avoid exposure to the public eye.
It's just a pity that such a perfect prey wouldn't survive tonight, even if it didn't die by his hands.
In a way, he had done a great favor to Kichimura Washuu.
Meanwhile...
Rize Kamishiro, who fell from the high building, burst with an unprecedented will to survive.
Both her legs were broken, and her body was heavily injured, making it impossible for her to heal herself. But even if she had to crawl using only her hands, she exerted all her strength to escape from the industrial zone.
"Food, food, food..."
With her current injuries, if she didn't eat soon, she would bleed to death.
Rize Kamishiro couldn't care about exposing herself anymore. She appeared crazed, but it was late at night, and she crawled alone in the corridor, unable to spot a single person.
"Am I going to die in a place like this?"
Rize Kamishiro grew weaker and weaker, unable to maintain her Kagune state.
Her vision blurred, and finally, with a thud, she collapsed to the ground.
"Miss, miss, are you okay?"
A melodious voice sounded in Rize Kamishiro's ear. She lowered her head, afraid to look up, fearing that her current state would scare the person away.
Ken Kaneki crouched beside Rize Kamishiro, anxiously speaking.
He had just been reading a book in the bookstore and lost track of time, ending up missing the last bus and having to walk. And it was then, in the alley, that he witnessed this horrifying scene.
"Miss, hold on, I'll call for help right away."
Ken Kaneki picked up his phone in a flustered manner, his hand trembling as he dialed the emergency number.
"Water..."
Rize Kamishiro made a faint sound.
Hearing this, Ken Kaneki hurriedly rummaged through his backpack and took out a bottle of mineral water. Looking at the heavily injured Rize Kamishiro, he said something offensive.
He approached Rize Kamishiro, wanting to give her some water, but as soon as he touched her shoulder, she suddenly lifted her head. Her once beautiful face showed no signs of beauty, only madness. Due to extreme weakness and hunger, her mouth was filled with saliva flying in all directions.
Without hesitation, she pounced on Ken Kaneki.
The difference between ghouls and ordinary humans is like an insurmountable gap. Even the lowest-level ghouls have skin that can withstand blades, and their strength far surpasses that of strongmen.
Even the dying Rize Kamishiro was not someone Ken Kaneki could resist.
"Ah!"
"Ha! It's so delicious!"
Amidst a scream of agony, Rize Kamishiro bit a large chunk of flesh from Ken Kaneki's shoulder. Without even chewing, she swallowed it whole, along with his clothes.
With a mouthful of flesh and blood, Rize Kamishiro instantly seemed resurrected, raising her head and cheering.
Crimson pupils appeared in her eyes.
"Ah! Please, please, I beg you, don't kill me."
Ken Kaneki screamed in agony. All he could do was plead for mercy, but his limbs were restrained by Rize Kamishiro.
Rize Kamishiro didn't even bother to kill him. She was too hungry and immediately buried herself in devouring chunks of flesh and blood.
"Drip!"
Suddenly, a sharp honking sound rang out.
Rize Kamishiro also turned her head abruptly. What met her eyes was a speeding heavy truck. She didn't have time to react, and the truck was already in front of her.
She didn't attempt to dodge and saw a figure in the driver's seat reflected in her eyes, giving a bitter smile.
"Bang!"
With a loud crash, Rize Kamishiro was sent flying, and the truck continued to crash through the surrounding residential buildings' walls before finally coming to a halt.
...
"Last night, in the early morning hours, a traffic accident occurred on the commercial street. The victims were two students, a male and a female. The female student has succumbed to her severe injuries, while the male student is still under rescue. Currently, the police are actively pursuing the hit-and-run driver."
"Below is the identity information about the hit-and-run driver. We urge anyone with information to actively report it to the police."
The next morning.
Lin Yi saw this news on TV, but he wasn't surprised.
A fully awakened 'Glutton' and an injured Rize Kamishiro naturally made the latter an easy target.
As for his own situation, he had already reported it to the CCG branch, and they used their connections to suppress what happened last night.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Lin Yi in a daze, Kimi Nishino gently leaned into his embrace and asked softly.
"It's nothing, Nishino. You studied in the medical department in college, right?"
Lin Yi suddenly asked without any reason.
"Yes, what's the matter?"
Kimi Nishino, lying in Lin Yi's arms, was as quiet as a cat. She liked sniffing the scent of Lin Yi quietly.
"Do you have any interest in learning other knowledge, like Ghoul Science?"
Lin Yi also remembered this from the news.
In the original work, Kimi Nishino also studied Ghoulification under Professor Kanou, but also created food for ghouls to consume.
It can only be said that she played a crucial role in the reconciliation between humans and ghouls in the original work.
Otherwise, the contradiction of ghouls needing to eat humans would never be resolved, and peaceful coexistence would be impossible.
"Can it help you?"
Kimi Nishino didn't ask anything else, only this question.
"Yes."
Lin Yi's answer was simple.
He understood Kimi Nishino's personality. She had already devoted her heart entirely to him. Whether she liked this profession or not was not as important as knowing it could help him and make him happier.
"Then I will study it seriously."
"In a while, I will find you a good teacher."
Lin Yi patted Kimi Nishino's head.
