Chapter 249: Are you cruel enough
Chapter 249: Are you cruel enough
Li Yaoxiang: "So, what do you plan to do in the future?"
Kaneki Ken: "Plan? There is nothing to plan. What to do, just what to do. Those who killed my father are those murderous, unruly ghouls. My enemies will also be them. Everyone in Anteiku is different from those group of scum. Why should I change my attitude towards Touka and Hinami for those scumbags? Those who should repent, suffer, and suffer should be those scumbags. Not me. What do you think?"

Li Yaoxiang: "I think? Em ... I agree with your idea. I also appreciate your determination. But ... is your determination firm enough?"
Kaneki Ken: "Oh? You have no confidence in me?"
Li Yaoxiang: "Of course not. I'm just worried ... you don't know enough about this path you choose."
Kaneki Ken: "What do you mean?"
Li Yaoxiang: "It's very simple. Humans and ghouls, on which side are you standing?"
A short sentence directly pointed out the problem.
Kaneki Ken instantly understood what Li Yaoxiang said.
Simply put, that is, since he decided to maintain his current life and get along with the entire Anteiku group, it means that they will one day meet the CCG and the human side.
When the time comes, what should he do?
Helped the Anteiku and repel CCG, or helped CCG persuade the Anteiku party?
If you help CCG, it means that his relationship with the Anteiku party will be broken.
If you help Anteiku, it means that he is about to become an enemy of humanity and is wanted by CCG.
For Kaneki Ken, this question cannot be described as not sharp.
However, he replied with a smile in his tone: "Why should I make a choice?"
Li Yaoxiang: "Oh? It seems that this question is already within your consideration?"
Kaneki Ken gave a yell and admitted Li Yaoxiang's statement, and immediately continued: "I am a human being. At the same time, now I am also a ghoul. Even if I stand on the human side, there is no guarantee that they will not arrest me as a ghoul. Same with the other side. Even if I stand on the other side, I cannot guarantee that they will not be hostile to me. These two are not the results I want. Nor should it be the result I deserve. The fault is not mine. The fault is this world. Those who messed up this world. Why do they need me to pay for their fault? Need me to suffer? My life should not be hidden. My life should not be hunted down. I also don't want my future children to suffer. They should be the ones who should be damned, who should disappear, who should hide, who should be hunted down! It's the people who make this world a mess! That being the case, why don't I build a world that is centered on me and suitable for my survival?"

In Kaneki Ken's mind, suddenly, Li Yaoxiang's applause sounded.
Pa!
Pa!
Pa!
Pa!
"You have a good idea. This is also the best practice for our interests. It's just that, do you have the ability to fulfill this ambition?"
Kaneki Ken still had a smile in his tone: "Isn't there still you? Aren't you and me one body? You'll help me, right?"
The reason why Kaneki Ken dare to think so, came up with such a ridiculous idea.
All because of his confidence in Li Yaoxiang.
After so many years, more or less, he still noticed some clues.
It's like why Li Yaoxiang knew so many secrets he didn't know, such as falling bars incidents, such as surgery, etc. Since Li Yaoxiang has a way to know the truth of these things, does that mean that Li Yaoxiang also has a way to learn more unknown secrets?
It's like Li Yaoxiang's ability to identify ghouls.
Since Li Yaoxiang has the ability to distinguish between ghouls, does that mean he has other special abilities?
There was a moment of silence in my mind.
Then came the laughter of Li Yaoxiang: "Hahahahaha! Little Ken, it seems that you haven't been white in the past few days--? The brain is a lot smarter. I will certainly help you. I can indeed help you. It's just ... are you determined enough? Are you cruel enough? In order to achieve your goal, can you ruin your heart? My Little Kaneki Ken ~ "
Kaneki Ken tastes: "If you don't try, how can you know that it won't work?"

Li Yaoxiang: "Well, the first thing you need to do is eat!"
Kaneki Ken: "Eat?"
Li Yaoxiang: "Yes, if you want to change the world, you have to become strong enough! So strong that no one can do anything to you! If the ghouls want to become stronger, they cannot do without RC cells.
Aside from humans.
Then you can only become stronger by eating a Kagune.
Strong enough to compete with the chess players in this world.
So you have to eat non-stop and eat more Kagune! Eating more Kagune means that there will be many dead ghouls due to you. Eating more Kagune means everyone in the Anteiku shop may reject you. How is it? Can you do it, Kaneki Ken?"
Kaneki Ken was silent for a moment.
When he responded again, he already had a firm tone, said with a smile: "Why not?"
The two communicated here.
In the real Kaneki Ken, the cry of Hinami came to his ears.
"Big brother Kaneki? Big brother Kaneki?"
"What's wrong with you? Why didn't you answer me?"
Kaneki grinned for a moment, then squatted down, dialed Fueguchi Hinami's hair, and said, "Hinami is a good girl. Hinami, there is work downstairs that needs my help. I can't accompany you for the time being. Circle the words you don't know first, and I'll teach you when I have time, okay?"
Fueguchi Hinami nodded heavily: "Okay-- ~"
Kaneki Ken didn't leave immediately, and continued: "By the way, Hinami. If one day, big brother Kaneki killed many bad guys, would you be angry with big brother?"
Regarding the matter of murder, Fueguchi Hinami still resisted.
Obviously, she doesn't like it very much.
Just like in the original work, even in the face of the real enemy ghoul investigators, the enemy who killed her parents, couldn't bear to kill her when she was young.
TL note: Asaki was killed sometime before June 10th, approximately 4 months prior to the Steel Beam Incident. Afterwards, Kureo Mado used Asaki's kagune to create the quinque, "Fueguchi One." In the anime, he was a doctor and made Yakumo Oomori (Yamori) his diagonal pliers, after seeing a patient, Yamori broke into his clinic and demanded he makes a copy of the diagonal pliers he broke while Hinami and Ryouko Fueguchi hid. After finishing his work on Yamori's diagonal pliers, the violent ghoul attacked him, sending him flying through the wall with a severe injury and right into the hands of Mado and Koutarou Amon. After Yamori escaped the investigators, Asaki attempted to fight them but was finished off by Mado.
But in the face of Kaneki Ken's sincere eyes, Hinami finally shook her head, timidly said: "No."
Immediately, Fueguchi Hinami really remembered the appearance of the "bad guy" she saw at home. She said nervously: "The bad guys are terrifying. You must be careful, Big brother Kaneki ..."
Seeing the appearance of Fueguchi Hinami.
Kaneki Ken had a guess right now, and guessing that Fueguchi Hinami must have had a bad experience. This makes Kaneki Ken firmer in his beliefs.
At the same time, he also believes that the people in the Anteiku, or Kirishima Touka, will certainly understand him...
