The villain knight doesn't want to be a hero

Due to the ghoul transformation surgery performed by Kano Akihiro, Kaneki Ken has many more RC cells in his body than the average human.

But its meat quality does not taste like rotten fish and shrimp like other ghouls, which can greatly reduce the psychological resistance of the eater...or taste resistance.

Overall, Kanekiken is delicious and very tonic.

Of course, the above is only for ghouls.

By the way, due to the emergency situation at the time, there was really not much time for him to explain, so the unlucky child was forced to have bloodletting done.

Moreover, since he was beyond the recovery ability of ordinary ghouls, the process did not go so smoothly...

Basically, the wound stopped bleeding without leaving a few drops of blood, forcing Lin Qiao to stab the unlucky child again.

——Then the returning Furuma Enji and Irimixuan bumped into each other, and it took a lot of effort to explain clearly.

Black Dog, Demonic Ape, Crow... and "Owl".

If the investigators of the CCG knew that there were such ruthless characters hiding in the usually stable 20th District, they would definitely look very excited.

But the other way around.

It is precisely because of the existence of these ruthless characters that no other ghouls dare to cause trouble in District 20.

The only one who dared to break the rules was Kamishiro Riyo, and his childhood sweetheart punished him.

Different from usual, everyone's eyes did not fall on Fangcun Gongshan, the initiator of the meeting, but focused on the red figure half lying on the sofa with tacit understanding.

Either curious or wary...

Lin Qiao, who was facing everyone's attention, sat on the sofa somewhat casually.

He was leaning against a soft back cushion, with one leg resting on the other. There was a plate of strawberry mousse cake and a cup of steaming coffee on the coffee table in front of him.

Just looking at the hot brown liquid inside, he felt a little guilty in his heart.

"Is it not in line with the taste?" Fangcun Gongshan, who was sitting in the main seat, asked as if he saw Lin Qiao's hesitation.

"...No, it's just the first time I eat in this form. It feels a bit...weird."

The armor that originally covered the mouth suddenly opened, revealing the sharp mouthparts inside.

The other ghouls watched as they drank coffee slowly, but because they were not used to eating in this form, they accidentally bit Lin Qiao's cup into pieces, and their eyes widened.

"What's wrong? With that expression on my face, you don't really think I'm Amazon, do you?"

He shook his head and put the coffee cup with a missing mouth back on the coffee table.

Since the skin of the lips and face has transformed into hard armor after transformation, liquids like coffee will probably leak out directly if you don't raise your head to drink.

Very inelegant.

"Amazon...are you talking about those new guys with characteristics similar to animals and insects?"

The one who spoke was the seemingly taciturn Sifang Lianshi.

He also met these guys when he was collecting the bodies of suicides recently.

Even though the other party didn't look like a ghoul, in line with the principle of helping each other in a stable area, he still had the idea of ​​introducing them to antiques.

Unfortunately, those monsters were more interested in him than the dead body.

So from now on, it’s a story of self-defense gone too far.

"It does not belong to humans, nor does it belong to the ghoul species. I had never heard of such a creature even two months ago. What on earth is Amazon?"

This is also a problem that troubles everyone.

After all, CCG has professional analytical instruments and a lot of researchers. Even if it starts from scratch, it should be able to understand some of Amazon's characteristics by now.

But the ghoul are really blind and ill-informed, and they don’t even know the existence of Amazon until now.

Lin Qiao thought for a while: "It is a very simple creature... Before I start to explain, let me ask, do you all know what protein is?"

Considering that the average education level of ghouls is prenatal education, such questions are still necessary.

Facts also proved that except for Dong Xiang, everyone present looked confused, and even the store manager had a thoughtful expression of "I think I've heard it before."

This is expected, after all, in the current human-dominated society, hiding one's identity is more important to ghouls than knowledge.

Just being unable to accept normal food has already blocked a lot of people. As long as they eat with humans for a long time, they will be easily exposed, not to mention that many ghouls don't even have legal identities on the surface. They are completely of black households.

Therefore, people like Dong Xiang who have the opportunity to go to school are rare.

"It's meat, I think. I remember the teacher talked about it in class before, but I can't remember the rest."

"...If it's easy to understand, there's nothing wrong with saying that, but Dongxiang, you might have to be careful about your biology exam."

"Well....."

"Anyway, I won't go into the detailed knowledge. You just need to know that the meat, eggs, and milk around you are the ones with the highest protein content."

Ignoring the stinky sister who was making dissatisfied sounds, Lin Qiao changed into a comfortable position and continued to explain.

"A creature like Amazon instinctively likes protein and is extremely addicted to protein in the human body. It's fine if you don't touch it. Once you eat it once, you will never go back. It will resist other types of protein... Of course , now it seems that their obsession with ghoul protein exceeds that of humans."

"If that's the case, those guys don't necessarily want to eat people, right?"

"Yes, in theory they can eat other foods as long as they have never eaten humans."

All the ghouls present had complicated expressions. How can I put it this way? I thought I was the unlucky guy who had the same problem as me, but in the end I found out that the clown was actually me.

There was a hint of envy in his eyes...

If they had a choice, why wouldn't they want to live an ordinary life?

As an elder, Fangcun Gongshan took a sip of coffee and broke the silence: "Well...compared to us who can only feed on humans, it is indeed enviable. But since There are other options, so why do they attack humans and ghouls?”

At least the same situation applies to ghouls. Even if there is no guarantee that they will not eat people, there will still be a considerable number of ghouls who choose other foods instead of eating people.

"This involves another question... You have also considered the origin of Amazon before, right? I will not hold back on this and just announce the answer."

After hearing this, the ghouls who were still dreaming about switching identities with Amazon also focused their attention.

"Why do Amazons have to attack humans when they can eat other foods? Why have we never heard of such creatures before? Why do they appear with human clothes on them?"

"......what do you want to say in the end?"

"There is only one answer -" Lin Qiao continued calmly.

"The so-called Amazon is actually transformed from a human being!"

"Eh!?"

Everyone was stunned by this shocking fact, and even Lin Qiao's exaggerated tone subconsciously ignored it.

"...human beings...become Amazon? How is this possible..."

"And if they were humans before, why would they go...eat humans?"

Even if the identity suddenly changed, at least the original thoughts are still there. To attack the compatriots in the past so decisively... Are human beings so terrible?

"—Lysogenic cells."

Before they had time to accept the reality, Lin Qiao came up with a new concept.

"The origin of all this. If you have watched zombie movies, just think of it as the zombie virus in it. Once infected, it will lose its mind and transform into Amazon in a very short period of time."

"Although they can recover after eating enough, during that time, the infected person will completely become a monster dominated by appetite."

"It would be fine if you were in a deserted mountain with no people, but unfortunately, most people would not go to such a place alone."

"In this case, you can imagine who the infected person will attack first."

Thinking of such a scene, everyone in Anding District felt a chill. Even the store manager, who had experienced great storms, had a serious look on his face.

Even the will will be lost, let alone control of instinctive impulses.

I am afraid that the first ones to be attacked by those crazy infected people are the friends and relatives around them.

How sad this is...

And after that, they had already eaten human flesh, and naturally it was impossible for them to accept other food.

In order not to starve to death, I can only force myself to accept the reality, and then continue the vicious cycle.

Just when everyone else felt their scalps numb, Irujian Xuan suddenly said seriously.

"Then what will happen if a ghoul is infected with the "lysogenic cells" you just mentioned? "

"..."

Lin Qiao was stunned, emmm, this is indeed a good question.

For ordinary humans, being infected with lysogenic cells is undoubtedly a bad thing that can't be worse, but it is not necessarily the case for ghouls.

Their lives are bad enough anyway.

If you can change your eating habits by becoming an Amazon, it will be a real profit.

As for losing your mind...just be prepared in advance. With Fangcun Gongshan, an SSS-level ghoul, he can pin you down no matter how crazy you are.

"I don't know, at least so far, I haven't found such an example."

"Is that so..."

Looking at the lively ghouls, Lin Qiao shook his head. He could probably guess what the store manager and the others were thinking.

But what can I say...too optimistic.

After all, it is an item that spans worldviews. Rather than combining the advantages, the probability of combining the shortcomings of both sides is not small.

Of course, for ghouls, this is also a way out.

"One more thing, you said before that Miss Ryoko and the others were found by the investigators and that someone was causing trouble behind their backs... So what happened?"

Finally asked this.

Chapter 35 Lin Qiao: It’s broken, I’m a substitute!

Lin Qiao smiled. This was the reason why he would tell all the information about Amazon and not worry about joining forces with another traveler in the Anding Zone.

After all, it’s impossible to explain what happened this time.

It is an indisputable fact that a passing Amazon attacked the Anding District, causing the mother and daughter Fieguchi to be hit by Mado Gouo, and nearly died in the end.

So it doesn't matter whether this thing is a coincidence or not. The important thing is to make the ghouls in the Anding District feel that this is not a coincidence, but that someone is deliberately targeting them.

Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they are not easily removed.

Unite all those who can be united, neutralize all those who can be neutral, and divide all those who can be divided in the enemy's camp.

This is the only way to win as long as your personal strength does not reach the level of crushing.

There is no need to add fuel to the fire or deliberately release any wrong information to mislead them. It would be better to say that it would end badly.

The ghouls in the Anding District may be a group of fathers in terms of academic qualifications, but in terms of social qualifications, almost all of them are old foxes.

"But is there really a being that can control the actions of other Amazons?"

After hearing the explanation about the origin of lysogenic cells and their carrier "Patient 0", Kirishima Touka muttered.

"Theoretically, it exists. After all, Amazon uses natural creatures as prototypes. The 1400 million existing species of life on earth are their best sample library. In this case, it is not surprising that any type of guy will appear. "

"For example, iron worms, crab slaves and flat-headed mud wasps are parasitic organisms that can control the actions of their hosts."

After a pause, allowing the ghouls in the stable area enough time to understand what he meant, he continued to add: "Of course, it is also possible that they are based on creatures such as ants or bees, relying on their own release of special pheromones to Control other Amazons."

"So in general, there are still many ways."

After scanning the circle of ghouls who seemed to understand but not understand, Lin Qiao patiently did not disturb them.

Picking up the chipped coffee cup on the coffee table, he tilted his head and poured the remaining portion into his mouth. Fortunately, it didn't spill out this time.

"No, I don't doubt the authenticity of your words, but... it may be a bit offensive to say this. I'm a little curious, where did you get this information? And the relationship between you and Patient No. 0 relation."

Like a talkative middle-aged uncle, Yuan'er Furujian said very sincerely.

Generally, saying this means that the other party is questioning his credibility.

but.....

"It's understandable. After all, it's just empty talk and it's hard to be convinced without evidence."

Lin Qiao didn't feel angry because of the right rebuttal. Lin Qiao nodded in agreement. Rather, such a situation was expected.

If everyone just agreed with "Ah, yes, yes, yes", then he would worry about whether something went wrong.
