Chereads / Highschool DxD : Johan's Dark Awakening / Chapter 17 - Chapter 17: Kureo Mado

Chapter 17 - Chapter 17: Kureo Mado

On the other side, Johan took some time to come to a branch of CCG. He had made an appointment with someone on the phone before, and there were two things he needed to do here today.

One is to thank the benefactor who saved him before, and the other is to investigate what organization the ghoul who killed his family belongs to.

Taking out the gift that he had prepared long ago from his backpack, he walked through the CCG's ghoul detection facility, and after some communication, he went straight into the branch.

It is around five o'clock in the afternoon. There are many investigators in the branch. Johan is a strange face, which has attracted the attention of many investigators. They are all staring at him and looking at him.

Because being a CCG investigator can be fatal if you're not careful, these guys are very sensitive. This is also an occupational disease for investigators.

"Hello, where is Mr. Mado Kureo?"

Johan came to the front desk of the branch, where there was a young and beautiful female receptionist.

"Are you looking for Mado-senpai? May I ask who you are?"

The receptionist gave a non-polite professional smile and had a gentle attitude.

"I came here to thank Mr. Mado for saving me some time ago, and I made an appointment to meet him."

Johan took out his cell phone and made a call. After the call was connected and they chatted, he handed it directly to the receptionist.

The female receptionist took Johan 's call and said this after they had a brief conversation and confirmed that there was no problem.

"Mado-senpai is in his temporary office on the ninth floor. You'd better hurry because Mado-senpai will be on a mission soon."

Johan nodded politely, said thank you, and took the elevator straight to the ninth floor.

Mado Kureo once visited him when he was in the hospital, and he was accompanied by his junior Amon Koutarou.

He himself did not expect that the one who saved him was this senior investigator of CCG, the one with white hair, a weird personality, and a crazy hatred for ghouls in the original book.

Although he knew that the other party had a weird personality, that was only towards ghouls, the enemies of humanity. The way Mado Kureo treated his juniors and partners, he really made people feel that he couldn't be better.

As a respected senior and investigator, Johan naturally respects and is grateful to this lifesaver.

"Boom, boom, boom~."

"Come in."

Johan knocked on the door and pushed open the office door. There were three people in the office, two men and one woman.

The old man among them not only had a head full of white hair, but also had one eye larger than the other, and his movements were somewhat neurotic, giving people a sick feeling.

The other was a young man with high spirits and a resolute face.

Mado Kureo and his partner and junior Amon Koutarou are organizing Quinques, and it seems that they are ready to go on a mission soon.

The only woman in the room was also a young and beautiful woman with blonde hair that fell to her waist and a pair of cold and sharp blue eyes.

This is Mado Kureo's daughter, Mado Akira, who is also an important supporting character in the plot of Ghoul.

"It seems that you have recovered well, Johan boy."

After seeing Johan, Mado Kureo put down the Quinque in his hand, sat behind the desk, and looked at Johan with a smile with his eyes wide open.

"Thanks to Mr. Mado and Mr. Amon. If you two hadn't saved me, I might not be able to stand here now."

"Thank you very much, this small gift is not enough to express my gratitude."

Johan, who was not used to the Japanese bowing, now bowed solemnly to his two saviors, then quickly placed the gifts he had prepared on the table, without giving the other party a chance to refuse.

At this time, he also secretly contacted the Bible Loli God who was in her body with the system.

[Sheng, I'll trouble you next.]

[No problem, leave it to me! ]

The voice of Kasuga Sei was immediately heard in his ears. He came here today to find out what force the ghoul that killed his family belonged to.

But if he asked directly, I'm afraid these two investigators would be unlikely to tell him to an outsider.

So at this time we can only rely on extraordinary means. Originally, I wanted to let the system explore the memory of Mado Kureo or Amon Koutarou.

But now he has entrusted this task to another resident in his body.

A golden holy light flashed in Johan's eyes. Mado Kureo, Amon Koutarou, and Mado Akira in the room were all stunned for a while, but did not notice anything unusual.

[nailed it!]

Really fast...

Johan was somewhat amazed at Kasuga Sei's efficiency. The memory reading was really efficient.

In a moment of distraction, it was as if he had entered his own home. Without hurting anyone, Kasuga Sei instantly read the life memories of the three people in the room except Johan.

The two most important things have been completed, and the next thing is the last small thing.

"Besides thanking us, do you have anything else to do today?"

After Johan came up to him, Mado Kureo looked at the young boy in front of him carefully. He felt that some drastic changes had taken place in the boy in front of him.

Compared to the time before when she was in the hospital, enduring the pain alone and forcing herself to hold back her inner sadness while communicating with him.

Although Johan's expression now showed sincere respect and gratitude for him, his intuition told him that this boy had undergone drastic changes inside him that he was not aware of, so he was a little curious.

Johan was not too surprised at Mado Kureo's sharpness. Investigators all have very sharp intuition, especially senior investigators.

He believed that his subtle changes might have been noticed by the old man.

The smile on Johan's face gradually faded, and then he began to speak:

"Indeed, there is something else. It is about my deceased family. Now that my spirit and condition have gradually improved, I calmly recalled that there was something strange when our family went out for fun and was attacked by ghouls. I want to tell Mr. Mado."

When talking about his family being attacked by ghouls, everyone felt that Johan's tone turned cold.

"Oh, the weirdness!?"

Upon hearing this,Mado Kureo narrowed his eyes, and Amon Koutarou and Mado Akira on the other side also pricked up their ears.

As one of them is a partner and junior of Mado Kureo, and the other is his daughter, they naturally knew about the attack on Johan's family some time ago.

Johan, the victim who survived the destruction of his family, said that there was something strange about the ghoul that attacked their family, which made the three sharp investigators realize something.

"First, there were many vehicles running parallel to or ahead of our family on that suburban road, but those ghouls only targeted our family and attacked them."

"Second, before those ghouls tore open the door of my father's car and pulled our family out, I opened the car window to enjoy the cool air and heard them say a few words, 'Finally, I'm waiting', 'I'm starving', 'Hurry up and finish the job'..."

As Johan spoke in a cold and calm tone, the eyes of the three investigators gradually became solemn.

They are not fools. With their clear minds, they naturally heard the weirdness in it.

The ghouls that attacked Johan's family were not accidental. It was very likely that those ghouls had ambushed them long ago.

Amon Koutarou also thought of this, but he didn't quite understand why those ghouls who only ate human flesh would ambush Johan's family.

He and Mado had also investigated the young man Johan Libert , so they naturally knew the other party's clean background. He was neither a relative of the investigator nor had any relative relationship with the investigator.

According to what Johan said before, is there something special about this young man's family that makes the ghoul concerned about them?

Regarding the confused thoughts in Amon Koutarou's mind, the two old seniors, Mado Kureo and Mado Akira, obviously thought more and faster than him.

If it is true as Johan said, that the ghouls attacked Johan's family with a purpose, then according to the words of the ghouls that the young man in front of him just heard, it is very likely that someone hired these ghouls behind the scenes.

"Could it be those bastards who keep ghouls in captivity who did this? !"

Mado Kureo raised his head and looked at his daughter. Seeing each other's expressions, it seemed that he and his daughter had the same idea.

At this moment, Johan saw the old man with a distorted face, which became even more distorted and hideous, and his big and small eyes were still suppressing a ferocious murderous intent.

As a veteran investigator, Mado Kureo naturally knew some of the dirty deeds of the human upper class, things that made him extremely angry and disgusted.

That is, there are humans who keep ghouls in captivity, tame them, and then use them to attack their fellow humans!!!

Humans have kept ghouls that specifically prey on humans in captivity in order to achieve some unspeakable secret. This has actually happened.

Some human financial tycoons once took away a group of investigators from the CCG, allegedly specifically for their own protection.

But on a deeper level, some people use these investigators to capture small ghouls to train and tame them, and then use the ferocious man-eating ghouls as their loyal dogs to solve some dirty things, which is naturally very convenient.

If something happens, I can be treated as an abandoned person. There are many people in this world who have died from ghoul attacks, and I won't be suspected anyway.

Once, Mado Kureo and his daughter participated in a special operation to encircle and exterminate ghouls. It was also during that operation that the father and daughter learned a lot of dirty things.

It's about humans using ghouls to kill their fellow humans. They completely use ghouls as killers to eliminate commercial dissidents or hostile forces.

This incident dealt too great a blow to the stability of human society, so it was suppressed by certain forces and CCG.

When Mado Kureo learned about this, he almost went crazy and wanted to kill those bastards who kept ghouls in captivity.

He used the ghouls he hated the most to attack humans. In his eyes, such people were no longer worthy of being called human beings.

"...Young man, I understand what you mean. Don't worry, we will thoroughly investigate this matter and will definitely give you justice!!!"

"I will make those bastards regret coming into this world!!!"

Mado Kureo took a deep breath and tried his best to keep his expression calm. With a gloomy look in his eyes, he made a promise to Johan solemnly.

He was serious and was not just trying to fool Johan. This time he was going to investigate Johan's matter thoroughly.

If he finds out that there are really humans who use ghouls to attack and harm others, there will be no need to use any legal trial. He will make those people who are dressed up and wailing die in his hands like disgusting ghouls, and die in extreme pain!

"Thank you, Mr. Mado. This is the list I made of people who have had conflicts with my parents. I hope it will be helpful to your investigation."

Johan's face was silent and cold. When he calmed down and recalled the strange behaviors of the ghouls who attacked his family, he realized that someone was directing those ghouls behind the scenes.

He was not quite sure at first, but after reading the memories of Mado Kureo, he was now certain that some bastard had instigated those ghouls to attack their family.

Telling this Mado Kureo was just part of a plan in his mind.

How could he let his enemies die in the hands of others? He must personally give these guys a good fight!

He believed in the slightly crazy old man, Mado Kureo, but he did not believe in CCG. Having read the original ghoul work, how could he not know that there were ghouls in the upper echelons of CCG interfering with the balance between humans and ghouls?

There are indeed people who are trying to expel ghouls and protect humans, but they are definitely not CCG!

Investigators do protect humans, but CCG never does.

In the original Tokyo Ghoul, investigators are like hardworking "scavengers" who control the number of ghouls.

Humans are the main food of ghouls. If they hunt humans without limit, leading to human extinction, then ghouls will not be far from extinction.

However, the biggest possibility is not that it will lead to the extinction of mankind, but that it will lead to a fight to the death between humans and ghouls!

It's not that humans don't have the means to deal with ghouls. Even if the ghouls' skin is very hard, it has its limits.

In the original plot, Kamishiro Rize was almost killed by a steel bar falling from a high altitude. It can be seen that the ghoul's skin membrane is far from as hard as imagined.

Aren't planes, cannons, tanks, missiles, etc. stronger than steel? Under the charge of human steel behemoths, is it possible that the skin and flesh of ghouls are made of vibranium?

Humans really can't completely expel ghouls? What a joke!

However, in this world where gods and demons hide in the dark, some supernatural forces that need humans will never let the so-called ghouls exterminate humans. They don't have that ability.

If this world only had a separate storyline for ghouls, Johan would change his plan and exterminate them.

What he was worried about was whether there was some other strange force behind the ghoul.

If the roots of the ghouls are disturbed and the younger ones are killed to lure out the older ones, it will be very disadvantageous for Johan who is still in the development stage.

When he is strong enough and has explored the shadow of the forces ahead, the day of ghouls' extinction will not be far away.
