Coffee Shop, Air Wall

Seeing Wang Yan leave, some of the lower-ranking investigators began to grumble indignantly.

They discussed Wang Yan's domineering and arrogant behavior, feeling frustrated but also envious.

The top investigators and CCG executives looked at each other, speechless.

The pressure from Wang Yan was immense.

If possible, they do not want to meet the other party a second time.

The following day, at 7:45 a. m.

Ward 20.

This seemingly ordinary café is actually a shelter run by Ghoul.

The store manager Yoshimura Kuzen, is the legendary SSS-Rank Ghoul, the "The Owl Who Does Not Kill"!

Yoshimura Kuzen opened this coffee shop after losing his daughter and wife, in memory of his human wife who used to work there.

The employees at this cafe are all Ghoul.

This includes the SS-Rank "Demon Ape," "Black Dog," and Yomoshi Renji, Ghoul below the SSS-Rank.

"I heard the restaurant across the street is opening today."

Kirishima Touka, a purple-haired girl with bangs covering her right eye, sat at the coffee table, her slender hand supporting her chin, her face full of curiosity. "I wonder who the owner is? The decor seems so luxurious..."

The manager looked up, glanced at the restaurant across the street, and casually remarked, "It's probably a high-end restaurant."

What happens to other people is none of their business, they Ghoul.

Yoshimura Kuzen works here to house Ghoul, hoping that the Ghoul in this "Anteiku" can live in harmony with human society.

They are unwilling to hunt and eat humans, but for survival, consuming human bodies is necessary.

Therefore, the main business of this coffee shop is collecting human corpses.

This kind of work is usually done by Yomoshi Renji.

In Japan, the pressure of both life and work is ridiculously high.

Many white-collar workers don't get to sleep for six hours a day for more than a few days out of the year.

Under such circumstances, many office workers cannot bear the burden of life and often choose to end their own lives.

The food source for the employees of the Ghoul café comes from the corpses of those who have committed suicide.

Kirishima Touka is, after all, a high school student with a strong sense of curiosity.

She looked at the three people standing there like wooden stakes, and couldn't help but walk over and ask softly, "Are you waiting for someone? Come and sit down."

As soon as she said it, Kirishima Touka felt somewhat surprised.

This is unlike me at all.

She rarely speaks to strangers.

However, Touka didn't think much of it.

These three guys over there are really something special.

That tall, Stronger, and sunny young man has been standing at the restaurant entrance since 5 a. m., and has been waiting ever since, without even changing his posture.

The blonde, blue-eyed woman, who looked like a foreigner, had a cold yet intense gaze, suggesting she had a story to tell.

The little girl covered in red stitches gave off a feeling of innocence, cruelty, and tyranny, making one's hair stand on end.

These three very different people are actually willing to quietly and honestly wait for someone?

Kirishima Touka became somewhat curious about the guy who was being waited for.

She soon got the answer.

8:00:00.

A young man in a white trench coat suddenly appeared in front of her.

It's not walking, not running, not even flying.

The other party just appeared out of nowhere.

How did he get there?

Kirishima Touka's eyes widened as she turned around and questioned the shop manager beside her.

But Yoshimura Kuzen, an SSS-Rank Ghoul and the Owl Who Does Not Kill, gave her a chilling answer, "There are three people there. Which one are you asking about?"

Three people...

Isn't there four?

Touka recalled scenes from the supernatural stories she had read.

The usually serious and rigid store manager would never make a joke like this!

She asked several other shop assistants, but received the same answer.

"This café is really interesting. Is it the latest form of performance art?"

A blond-haired boy burst out laughing, "There are clearly four people."

The boy, who calls himself "Ying," is a regular at the coffee shop.

Upon hearing his words, the expressions of all the employees in the coffee shop became serious.

A single piece of evidence is insufficient.

If two people say this, it means something terrible has happened...

There were four people standing in the restaurant across the street.

However, none of these powerful Ghoul could detect the other's presence.

Sight, hearing, smell, touch, taste, even a sixth sense...

They couldn't detect the person's presence.

"Ah... there's a cycling event today."

"I'm leaving now, I'll come back another day!"

Ying glanced at the time, hurriedly paid the bill, and quickly ran out of the coffee shop.

He decided to bring his good friend Kaneki Ken as well in a few days.

Good-looking people are everywhere.

Interesting souls are truly rare!

It turns out that those usually serious and unsmiling coffee shop employees actually have a great sense of humor.

After Ying left, Yoshimura Kuzen gathered all the shop employees together.

Ultimately, they discovered that only Kirishima Touka and the Little Blonde could see the presence of the "mysterious young man in white."

Moreover, the three people opposite them seemed to be talking to thin air...

This eerie scene is chilling.

As SSS-Rank Ghoul, the Owl Who Does Not Kill had a wealth of life experience, but he had never seen such a bizarre scene before.

Touka decided to take the risk.

Before anyone could react, she had already rushed into the restaurant across the street.

Yoshimura Kuzen and the others planned to help Touka, but sadly discovered that they seemed to have run into an invisible wall.

They couldn't even get into the restaurant.

Inside a restaurant called "The Miracle".

The four people who were discussing something turned their heads and their gazes fell on her.

"It seems our first guest has arrived."

A faint smile appeared on Wang Yan's face as he said in an unquestionable tone, "Go and prepare the food."

"Yes!"

"Clear!"

"Oh!"

Kōtarō Amon, Akihiro Mado, and Jūzō Suzuya responded immediately.

The three of them jogged into the kitchen.

At this moment, Kirishima Touka seemed to have forgotten her original purpose.

She clutched the hem of her school uniform, looking somewhat embarrassed. "I don't have any money on me."

It's not that we don't have money.

However, she felt that she couldn't afford the expenses of such a high-end restaurant.

Moreover, she's Ghoul!

Aside from coffee and specially made blood wine, the only thing she can consume is human flesh.

Other ordinary foods, whether rice, noodles, egg tarts, or seafood, would only burden her body.

Humans' food, Ghoul's poison.

Why pay money to suffer?

"It's alright."

Wang Yan reassured her. "The Miracle Restaurant only serves those who are destined to be there, and does not charge any fees."

"However, our meals are changed randomly every day."

Upon hearing this, Kirishima Touka wanted to refuse, but then she caught a whiff of a scent that was fatally alluring.

"What's this?"

She asked instinctively.

Ordinary food should smell rotten and foul to Ghoul.
