Chapter 230: Blackened seeds, breaking out of their shells
Li Yaoxiang: "How? You should believe it now?"
Kaneki Ken: "Believe in what?"
Li Yaoxiang: "The money is already here. Of course, your aunt and your family will never need to act in front of you anymore."
Kaneki Ken: "..."
Li Yaoxiang: "What's the matter? Your mother was killed by your aunt and your aunt's family. Even after your mother died, your aunt didn't regret it and still treated you like this. You're not angry at all? You don't want revenge at all?"
Kaneki Ken did not reply.
Take the money and go to the street, ready to solve today's dinner.
And just as Kaneki Ken passed an electrical appliance store, the glass of the electrical appliance store was filled with all kinds of TV sets just reporting a piece of news.
"Hello everyone, I am your news anchor XXXX. The next news I report for you is that at 7-9 pm yesterday evening, another family in the XX district was victimized. The modus operandi is the same as that of the previous murders. There is no sign of breaking the door, it looks like it was done by an acquaintance. However, some experts believe that maybe this is just an illusion created by the ghouls. Because according to the clues revealed by the neighbors of these families, they all have one thing in common. That is the habit of putting the keys of the home somewhere at the door. Perhaps it was that they discovered their habit and took the key and broke into the house. So this station here calls on residents of District XX. If you have the above habits, please make sure to change them as soon as possible so as not to become the next target of the ghoul."
News anchors speak quickly.
Almost Kaneki Ken started walking on one side of the store, but had not yet reached the other side of the store. This news had already been broadcast to the end.
Li Yaoxiang: "Did you hear that? It's a ghoul, and it's a ghoul that committed the crime. It just so happens that you live in this area, Ken! What if you can use this kind of ghoul to avenge your mother, then that would be great wouldn't it? If your aunt's family was killed by ghouls, I believe everyone would not suspect you, right?"
Hear this remark by Li Yaoxiang.
Kaneki Ken stopped subconsciously.
Startled listening to this news report, looked at the picture on the TV screen.
After a while.
Kaneki Ken left here without incident.
He didn't answer.
But regardless of Li Yaoxiang's disregard, he still pretended to analyze and bewitched in Kaneki Ken's mind, asking: "Since the crime has not yet been caught, it means that this ghoul cannot be hidden among the neighbors of this group of victims. Otherwise, the ghoul investigators could not have missed it. Like this kind of small habit, everyone usually will not circulate randomly. In addition to the neighbors who meet each other, they will know that the victim's family has this habit, who else will be able to discover this habit of the victim's family? Correct! Correct! This person must have an identity that will not be suspicious even if he passes through the area of the victim's house every day! Otherwise, he could easily discover this little habit of the victim's family! Postman? The newspaper? Milk delivery? Or are these several victim sites the only way for this ghoul to go to and from get off work?"
Kaneki Ken did not respond.
Li Yaoxiang didn't say it again, it was already obvious enough. Kaneki Ken seemed indifferent. But Li Yaoxiang knew that in fact, Kaneki Ken had already remembered them in his mind.
His performance can conceal others, nor can he conceal the Li Yaoxiang he grew up from birth to the present.
In the following process of buying food, it is enough to prove that Li Yaoxiang's guess is correct.
"Young man! Young man! You haven't given money yet!"
Boss gasping for breath caught up with Kaneki Ken.
Kaneki Ken repeatedly bowed and apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
After a while.
"Hey! Hello--! Young man, you haven't got any change yet!"
On the surface, they don't care, but the whole person is absent-minded, and he becomes indifferent.
In a good period of time afterwards, the small details of Kaneki Ken's life made some changes.
He started to pay attention to 'that news' intentionally or unintentionally.
Pay attention to the places where they were killed.
Sometimes they even "detour", deliberately passing these crime sites on the way to school or home. The final conclusion is that it is impossible to link the routes of these crime sites together.
In other words, people who work or leave work are excluded.
Then the rest can only be those who send newspapers, milk, postman, etc.
Only these people will take such a strange route and will not be doubted.
With this discovery, Kaneki Ken was very surprised. He didn't expect, the original kind of horrible kind is so close to his life. It may even be anyone around you.
However, this frightening fact, not at all troubled him for too long.
After that, he also passed those routes intentionally or unintentionally, and finally locked in several goals.
He does not know whether these goals will be among them.
He only knows that these goals, in addition to often appearing on that 'fixed route', sometimes pass by his aunt's home from time to time.
Kaneki Ken's series of small movements, Li Yaoxiang all see in his eyes.
However, during the entire investigation, Li Yaoxiang did not see through it.
There is no meaning to ridicule Kaneki Ken.
Now that the results of the investigation are in place, everything is ready, but Kaneki Ken was only recovered at this time, what is he doing? What is he doing?
Yes.
Kaneki Ken did this series of things unconsciously.
During the investigation, I didn't think about revenge, it was like satisfying my curiosity. But this so-called 'satisfying curiosity' is an idea of deceiving himself.
It's just that he didn't notice it.
Li Yaoxiang knew that at this time someone had to come out to push Kaneki Ken. Only by pushing Kaneki Ken, let him pass the threshold in his heart.
Only the blackened seeds buried in his heart can be completely broken out and sprouted vigorously.
And this person is undoubtedly him.
Li Yaoxiang: "What ... are you still hesitating?"
At this moment, Kaneki Ken was standing at the door of his house, motionless.
In the distance, there is one of the 'target characters' who is about to pass by him. Ken Kaneki knew that the 'target person' was about to pass through this. But he didn't know why he was here at this time and place, motionless.
Li Yaoxiang: "Your beautiful life has been destroyed by others. People who destroy your beautiful life live happier and more comfortable than you every day. They don't even know any regrets, and they mock you and laugh at you behind their backs. And this 'person' is in this house. You are not angry and do not want revenge?"
Kaneki Ken bowed his head and said nothing.
Li Yaoxiang: "Don't think about it that much. Tell yourself that you just made some unintentional actions, which makes people mistakenly think that you took the key from a certain place the door. It's... all 'accidents'. Do it, if you don't do it, that person will leave..."
Speaking of it.
'Bell' twice. This is the bell of the target person's bicycle. Judging by the ringtone, it is enough to draw the result that the target person is not far from him.
And just when the target character is about to ride a bicycle, passing by the aunt's house.
Kaneki Ken suddenly bent down, took out 'something' from the carpet that seemed to be at the door, and got up to open the door. Out of the corner of Kaneki Ken's eyes, he looked at the target person.
Seeing the target character also noticed his movements...
With a click, the sound of shell breaking sounded.
From this moment, the blackened seeds began to grow seedlings. The seedling looks small, but it has tenacious vitality...
