Akira: Shimoguchi First Rank. In regards of your subordinates, it’s unfortunate…

Shimoguchi: You can leave the gifts there.

Akira: Sorry to ask this when you are still recuperating, but I’d like to know more about what happened in the Torso’s residence.

After hospital visit.

Sasaki: "Rabbit", huh? That’s one of the targets for Team “S2”.

Akira: Yeah, it seems that it’s a young ghoul. He appeared 3 years ago, killing the investigators in the 20th wards, and hunted the 7th wards Associate Special Class Investigators. His presence became more prominence each year. Even my father… was killed by “Fueguchi” and him.

Sasaki: I heard from Arima-san that he is a brilliant investigator. He has received Quinque from him before.

Akira: Currently, those two seemed to work under Aogiri.

Sasaki: What do they want to do with “the recordings inside the taxi” that was found in Torso’s residence?

Akira: Who knows? It’s useless thinking about that. More importantly, Aogiri wanted that unknown data.

They are using ghouls who blend in human’s society, and then just like Torso, if their situation in human’s society got worse, they would be attracted to join, strengthening their group further.

The “Tree’s”’ trunk gets thicker and expands its branches and leaves.

“Aogiri” has became a threat known to even commoners.

Sasaki: I wonder if Shimoguchi-san is okay.

Akira: …He lost all his subordinates, leaving him the only survivor. No matter how bold a person is, he would still feel responsible. It must be painful. To lose people who he have spent his time with is…

Sasaki: (Even the usually headstrong Akira-san looks a little sad.)

CCG Headquarters.

Dr. Shiba: The way to strengten Kagune? Just like Sasaki Rank one?

Urie: …

Dr. Shiba: it’s true that “Team Leader” and Shirazu-kun is…

Urie: The team leader is Shirazu.

Urie: (Did you do that on purpose? Old man!)

Dr. Shiba: Oh, my apologies. In any case, allow me to explain to you in regards of Quinx Treatment.

Narration: Quinx Treatment, also known as “Kakuhou implant” combined the technology of both Dr. Kanou’s method of transforming Sasaki Rank One into a half ghoul and Quinque’s manifacture.

The difference from Quinque is that instead of putting it into a case, it was implanted into human.

The planted Kakuhou has 5 levels of frames, it enables the adjustment of Kagune’s usage. It allows them to lower the risk and good for observation.

F1: 20% F2: 40% F3: 60% F4: 80% F5: 100%

Dr. Shiba: Right now, all members are set at F2. “Kakuhou” application is at 40%.

Urie: In other words, if you increase the frames level. you can use stronger Kagune.

Dr. Shiba: I wouldn’t recommend it though.

Urie: (Why are you saying that now? Don’t act like you have moral. What’s the difference between you and Dr. Kano? You just want to get awarded for the new technology. You don’t even need to have the resolve like me. I…)

Kuroiwa’s son.

Kuroiwa Takeomi (20) Rank 2 Investigator. 182 cm. 77 kg.

Urie: …Kuroiwa.

Takeomi: Is Sasaki Rank One all right?

Urie: If you are talking about that incident, our team members aren’t that soft. Plus it was because there’s the reinforcement from Hirako First Class and Itou Rank One that you managed to deal with Sasaki Rank one.

Takeomi: Yeah, of course. Even if it’s already been decided, I have attacked a superior. I would like to apologize directly. When do you think is a good time for that?

Urie: I don’t know his schedule. You could ask the other members of Qs, or look for him yourself.

Takeomi: I understand. By the way, Sasaki Rank One is so proficient at wielding sword, his movement is like water.

Urie: (Can’t you just shut up? You’re just a Rank 2 investigator, well, me too, but… This bastard that could exterminate an SS ghoul…)

Urie: (Don’t talk to me as if you don’t give a damn. It pisses me off. You should put more effort avoiding me, and be more remorseful.)

Urie: (Your father abandoned my father. Unforgivable! Why didn’t he fight together? How could he still allow himself to live after abandoning his superior? Doesn’t he know no shame? Unforgivable! Your father lost his arm in the fight against “Owl” 2 years ago. He’s better off dead.)

Ayato: If you joined Aogiri, it won’t be easy for you to leave. The people above, they aren’t as nice as us. Think carefully before deciding.

Torso: My face has been seen. There’s nowhere I can go…

Torso: (That’s right, if I used Aogiri, perhaps “that girl”…)

Ayato: Saeki. (That’s Torso’s real name just in case if anyone forgets.)

Torso: Y-Yes? Um…

Ayato: It’s Ayato.

Torso: Ayato-kun.

Ayato: You don’t have to be so tense. I just have a question to ask. Is there someone named “Sasaki” together with that “Qs group”?

Shirazu: So, Sassan, what is the new mission of “Shirazu’s Team”?

Sasaki: Our new target is “Nuts Cracker”. Rating is still under judgement.

Shirazu: Ah! i was trying to get into the mood by changing my appearance!

Sasaki: So basically, it’s a ghoul whose hobby is to crush guys’ testicles… and drinks it or something…

Shirazu: Ugh…

Mutsuki: I-It sounds really painful…

“Nuts Cracker” seems to be a long black-haired woman. The face is obscured.

Nuts Cracker: Keke, I will go with this!

Man: Really? Are you really sure?

Nuts Cracker: I’m really going!

Sasaki: Since we lost Torso, that investigation is on halt. Instead, we will be supporting this investigation. Let’s be careful not to get ours crushed, too. (OMG, Sasaki, LOL! XD)

The current team that leads the investigation is Suzuya’s team of the 13th wards.

Mutsuki: Are you referring to that Suzuya-san?

Sasaki: That person is very skilled at wielding knives. It would be great if he can teach Mutsuki-kun.

Shirazu: Sassan, do you get along with Juuzou-san?

Sasaki: Hmm, I wonder… The first time we met, he gave me money out of nowhere.

Suzuya: I’m returning this.

Sasaki: …Thanks…

Shirazu: What the heck is that?

(TG:Joker confirmed canon!!! XD)

Sasaki: Even though Suzuya-san is a bit strange, I like that he is very passionate at his job.

Shirazu: A bit strange but passionate at work… Isn’t that just like you, Sassan?

They laughed at Shirazu’s remark.

Sasaki: Right, today I’ll treat you guys. Let’s go have a tea before we go home. (D'awwwwwwwww, so cute.)

Sasaki is searching for a coffee shop.

Sasaki: Finding a delicious coffee shop is my hobby ever since I was a rank 2 investigator. What kind of coffee will I discover this time?

Mutsuki: Shirazu-kun, it seems that Saiko-chan is coming back at 21.00.

Shirazu: Gotcha. Let’s attack when we go back.

Sasaki stops and looks at the board in front of the coffee shop.

(One of the : is colored red, does it signify the one-eyed ghoul?)

Sasaki: …“R” “E”?

Mutsuki: How do you pronounce it?

Shirazu: “Re”?

Mutsuki: Shouldn’t it be “Ri”?

They enter the coffee shop.

Sasaki: Oh… This fragrance… This shop definitely can make delicious coffee! My “Nose Kagune” is whispering to me! (OMG, Sasaki, LOL)

Shirazu: Wow, Rc Cells are awesome.

Mutsuki: “Nose Kagune”? (I swear Mutsuki is the straight man of this team! XD)

Sasaki: Look, there’s even a cool bro there, too. (Is he referring to Yomo? XD)

Shirazu: He’s ignoring us.

Sasaki: You know, it’s like… he’s the type who won’t welcome you if you’re not a member.

Mutsuki: Sensei, if that’s the case, we can’t order coffee.

Touka: Oh c'mon, Nii-san (She called Yomo brother? D:), how many times do I need to tell you to greet the customers when they come—
