Chapter 44
Two days later, the news that the Hexiu clan had been completely exterminated was quickly announced to all citizens through the media by the top leaders of Japan to calm people's hearts.
"It's really scary. Who would have thought that even the top leaders of CCG could infiltrate. Now that they have been completely eliminated, I can feel relieved.……"
"……Rest assured, my friend, what are you thinking about?"
"That's right... What can we be assured of now? Don't forget that the top leaders of Japan have confirmed that the Hexiu clan has been exterminated. They have also confirmed the contents of the diary to a certain extent. At least the contents in this regard are accurate.……"
"That is... now let's not talk about those pure-blooded demons, artifacts, gods... and the like. Just the ghouls, creatures that originally existed only in urban legends and feed on humans, appeared in reality. I dare not walk at night, for fear of encountering an unexpected event.……"
"Alas, the world really changed overnight."
"……It's not that it has changed, it's just that we didn't know about it before, and the top management of Japan has hidden it all."
"……"
Although the extinction of the Kazushi clan made the people in the first branch feel much more at ease, the subsequent exposure of the ghouls still caused panic in people's hearts.
After all, this is completely related to the safety of their lives and their families at all times.
They don't want to be kidnapped by ghouls while walking on the street one day. The most frightening thing is that this is impossible to prevent. Even if they don't go out at night, if they are unlucky and encounter hungry ghouls, they still can't avoid being broken into.
As this panic continues to spread.
The top management of Neon has once again issued a new notice, or more accurately, a notice on ghouls.
[Announcement to all ghouls——]
[From now on, all eligible people must go to [Tokyo Legal Affairs Bureau Household Registration Section 4th Branch] to register. Those who register will receive the"transformed food" developed uniformly by the government. This"transformed food" can replace human flesh, and those who register will have all the equal rights of citizens.……]
[If you don't cooperate with the registration, the newly formed CCG will expel you, and if necessary, the [Tokyo Legal Affairs Bureau Family Registry Section 4th Branch] will also be dispatched.……]
……
As soon as this notice came out, the human world was fine.
They knew that once such a decision was made, the number of ghouls attacking humans would inevitably decrease. After all, the food problem related to the survival instinct of ghouls had been solved. If ghouls attacked humans again, it would be almost the same as some murderers among humans.
This made many people really relieved in their hearts, and they finally didn't have to worry about it.
Of course, their fear of ghouls could not be completely eliminated by a notice. At the very least, the flow of people in bars, KTVs... such night entertainment venues should be reduced a lot, and the time to turn off the lights at home would be much earlier.
However, for the entire ghoul world, it was earth-shattering news.
It was no less than when they just learned that Arima Kishou would be the first one-eyed king, and the Kazuo clan that led the CCG (Ghoul Countermeasures Bureau) was a ghoul family.
No one expected that the top leaders of Japan would issue such a notice. After the elimination of the Hexiu clan, they thought that everything would just return to the original state, and at most CCG would be in chaos for a while. Now, there is a fork in the road that is almost a fateful decision.
""Transformed food"?!
Does such a thing really exist?!
And can they have all the equal rights as human citizens?!
The ghouls were worried that it was a trap, but they also had a glimmer of hope and longing in their hearts.
If it was true!
They would be completely free from that dark life, and no longer have to worry about their identities being exposed every day, thus attracting arrest and expulsion from the investigators.
……
Antique Shop——
"Manager, it's rare that the top management of Japan has actually developed"modified food" that can be eaten by ghouls, which can completely replace our demand for human flesh."
Kirishima Touka asked in shock.
But - obviously she asked the wrong person. The always knowledgeable manager Yoshimura Kozen is also in shock. He never expected that the top management of Japan would announce"modified food" that can replace human flesh. He even subconsciously wondered if this was a trap set by the top management of Japan to catch all of them ghouls.
Trick them into registering in this so-called [Tokyo Legal Affairs Bureau Household Registration Section Fourth Branch].
It's not just the manager Yoshimura Kozen who has this idea. Others like Irami Xuan, Furuma Enji, Shifang Renji... and others also have the same idea.
However, at this time, someone put forward a different point of view.
"It should be true. If they really wanted to deal with us, they could have done it when we gathered at the main house of the Wasui clan. There was no need to go to such lengths to tell such a lie."
It was Takatsuki Izumi who was sitting next to him drinking coffee.
The others were shocked.
Takatsuki Izumi had been in the antique shop for two days. Except for chatting with Fueguchi Hinami, the rest of the people, including his father, the store manager Yoshimura Kousen, didn't pay much attention to him. This was the first time he took the initiative to interrupt their conversation.
After the extermination of the Wasui clan,
""One-eyed Owl" Izumi Takatsuki existed as a comrade-in-arms before, but now the battle is over. For this SSS-level ghoul, no one in the entire CCG will feel at ease to let him go at will, for fear of causing a major bloody incident.
After all, the bloody incidents committed by the"One-eyed Owl" since its appearance are piled up in the archives of the CCG (Ghoul Countermeasures Bureau), and each one is shocking.
Later, under the guarantee of Arima Kisho,
Izumi Takatsuki temporarily lived in an antique shop and was also under the surveillance of CCG. This was a compromise.
In this regard, Izumi Takatsuki did not oppose and ignore it as expected by others. Instead, she accepted it and accepted the surveillance of CCG (Ghoul Countermeasures Bureau).
Maybe for her.
After the extermination of the Kazuo clan, she should not want to continue to be a"one-eyed owl", but prefer to be an ordinary writer, the writer known as"Teacher Izumi Takatsuki"
"Also, there is one thing you haven't noticed, [Tokyo Legal Affairs Bureau Household Registration Section 4th Branch], put it behind CCG (Ghoul Countermeasures Bureau), if necessary, [Tokyo Legal Affairs Bureau Household Registration Section 4th Branch] will be dispatched, it is both a guarantee and a threat"
""Sister, the [Tokyo Legal Affairs Bureau Household Registration Section 4th Branch]? What is it?!"
Not to mention Fueguchi Hinami, Kirishima Touka, Irimi Kasumi, Furuma Madoka...
and others were a little confused.
It sounded like an official department organization.
Could it be more powerful than CCG (Ghoul Countermeasures Bureau)? According to Takatsuki Izumi, it can threaten the entire ghoul world?!
Takatsuki Izumi did not keep the secret and said bluntly:"Regarding the [Tokyo Legal Affairs Bureau Household Registration Section 4th Branch], its real name should be"Scepter 4".
On the surface, it is just an ordinary external agency that has accepted an official commission and is responsible for managing [special foreigner household registration].
In fact, it is the private force of the fourth royal authority, Blue King Munakata Reiji, or [Blue Clan Scepter 4].
The team members are all members of the Blue Clan and are responsible for managing people with special abilities and handling various special ability incidents.
"
"Now you should understand why I said that [Tokyo Legal Affairs Bureau Household Registration Section 4] is both a guarantee and a threat."
Suddenly - all the antique shop members present were shocked
[Tokyo Legal Affairs Bureau Household Registration Section 4th Branch] is actually the private army of the fourth royal authority, Blue King Munakata Reiji, [Blue Clan Scepter 4].
That's no wonder.
They finally understood why Takatsuki Izumi said that [Tokyo Legal Affairs Bureau Household Registration Section 4th Branch] is both a guarantee and a threat, to ensure the safety of all the registered ghouls, and at the same time, to eliminate those ghouls who do not register when necessary.
Moreover, the overwhelming power of the royal authority, they have experienced it thoroughly from the fifth royal authority, Green King Bishui.
That is a power that the ghoul world cannot resist, and there is no need to deceive them at all.
"It seems that the era of peaceful coexistence between ghouls and humans has finally arrived."
The store manager Yoshimura Kousen couldn't help but smile. This was his wish, and also the wish of his deceased wife Yuna.
And -
Takatsuki Izumi looked at the rising sun through the window, thinking of his friend, and muttered to himself:"Shirayuki, my wish has come true. Whether it was passively or forced, the situation and position of the ghouls have finally changed. What about you?……"
