One-Eyed Ghoul, Family Banquet

When Kaneki Ken Awakening, he found himself back in the villa that his father, Kakashi, had bought for him.

Operating table, straitjacket, white coat, doctor with snake-like eyes...

Everything that had happened before seemed like Illusory bubble.

He glanced at the time.

August 16th.

"Seven whole days have passed?"

Kaneki Ken wandered into the kitchen as if in a dream and opened the Fridge.

The instant food inside looked very fresh, but after being heated in a microwave oven, it emitted a putrid, fishy smell that made him want to S.P.E.W., let alone put it in his stomach.

"They're all expired..."

"Is it because of the added nitrites? It looks so fresh."

Although somewhat puzzled, Kaneki Ken didn't take it too seriously and ordered takeout.

Takoyaki, beef char siu with udon noodles, and a cappuccino.

Upon opening the lid of the food, a nauseating odor assaulted my nostrils.

Apart from the coffee, which was relatively normal, all the other food was so rotten and filthy that it was infuriating!

This angered Kaneki Ken, who picked up his phone to give the restaurant a bad review.

Kaneki Ken froze, his finger hovering over the comment button.

He slowly moved his thumb away, a complex expression that seemed to be both a smile and a cry appearing on his face.

A single piece of evidence is insufficient.

The food in the Fridge and the takeout food were all inedible.

The coffee, however, tasted normal.

All signs prove that he has become Ghoul.

Only Ghoul have these characteristics!

Kaneki Ken sadly picked up the knife and cut open the pad of his index finger.

Thick, scarlet blood flowed out.

After a few breaths, the wound healed.

What else could this level of regenerative ability be but that of Ghoul?

He ran to the bathroom and looked in the mirror.

There has been no change in appearance.

A surge of intense hunger overwhelmed him, and his right eye turned crimson.

Kagune!

No need to worry about it anymore.

Kaneki Ken is now certain that he has become a One-Eyed Ghoul.

Fortunately, thanks to the personal testimony of Kakashi Hatake, his "father," he no longer resists this identity.

He knew that in advanced China, scientists had already developed foods that Ghoul and ordinary people could eat.

Those animals and plants, after undergoing genetic modification, possess a high concentration of RC Cell after they grow and mature.

This food is now slowly becoming more popular in China.

After all, apart from Ghoul, ordinary people can also improve their physical fitness by consuming these foods every day.

Strength, agility, Spiritual Power, resilience, tenacity...

According to tabloid rumors, many wealthy and powerful individuals eat five of these special meals a day in an attempt to subtly enhance their Gene level and produce more outstanding offspring.

Glug glug...

My stomach started rumbling again.

Kaneki Ken sighed.

Because of his father Kakashi, he was not short of money.

Although he didn't have much of a concept of it, he was certain that many second-generation heirs of wealthy and powerful families were far less liquid than he was now.

Kaneki Ken is not short of money.

However, he lacked connections and channels, and didn't know how to obtain that kind of "high RC Factor food".

Knock knock knock!

The doorbell rang.

Before Kaneki Ken react, the facial recognition system had already let the visitor into the villa.

"Kaneki, why are you disappearing again?"

"I've been looking for you every day for the past few days, but I can't find you at all."

Nagan Chika even arrived, his voice preceded his words: "I recently discovered a super interesting place and I'm planning to take you there."

"An interesting... place?"

Kaneki Ken's expression was somewhat stiff.

Having become One-Eyed Ghoul, he was unsure how to face his friends.

In particular, the other person always exudes an alluring aura.

This aroma is even more tempting to Kaneki Ken when he is hungry.

He practically saw England as a moving steak and couldn't help but swallow hard.

Her eyebrows were slightly raised.

Sensitive as he was, he seemed to have noticed some changes in Kaneki, but he didn't say anything.

He picked up where he left off, saying, "It's a restaurant, the Miracle Restaurant! It's super fun!"

"I heard that customers who can see the owner can get their meals completely free."

"But 99% of people can't see the boss, isn't that interesting? He's standing right there."

"You won't understand just by saying it. I'll take you there, and you'll understand once you see it."

Hearing this, Kaneki Ken forced a smile, "Okay..."

What is normal human food is poison to him now.

But the gentle Kaneki Ken couldn't bear to refuse his friend's invitation.

Half an hour later.

The two arrived in Ward 20.

Before the Miracle Restaurant.

"Boss? Is it that handsome guy in the white shirt, or that purple-haired lady?"

Kaneki Ken blinked and looked at his friend beside him.

Ying chuckled, "Looks like you're one of our destined ones. You can have your meal for free today!"

Hearing this, Kaneki Ken lost interest.

Money is just a number; he won't be happy about saving a little bit of money.

Noticing Kaneki Ken's expression, Nagan Chika nudged his shoulder and winked, saying, "The rules here are very strict! Even if the 'unlucky' are willing to pay, they still can't eat the food here."

Upon hearing this, Kaneki Ken immediately became interested.

What kind of restaurant would dare to set such a rule?

"It is said that the scandals Washuu Family first spread from here."

Nagan Chika said in a strange tone, "Let's have a good meal first, then I'll talk to you about serious business."

After the two entered the Miracle Restaurant side by side, the blond head chef Sanji came over to greet them personally.

After a brief conversation, Kaneki realized that the other person was more professional than any chef he had ever met.

Sanji used many technical terms that Sanji had never even heard of before.

"I understand your appetites, please wait a moment."

Sanji gave the two of them a graceful bow, then turned and went into the kitchen.

Within fifteen minutes, a meal appeared in front of the two of them.

It's just a very ordinary side dish.

Miso soup, seaweed rice balls, cream Tamagoyaki, potato pancakes, sturgeon sashimi, tonkatsu (fried pork cutlet), bonito rice.

The intense aroma filled his nostrils, making Kaneki Ken swallow hard.

He clasped his hands together and said softly, "I'm starting!"

Pick up your chopsticks and enjoy a sumptuous feast.

Kaneki Ken was so moved that he almost cried.

Normal food, standard deliciousness.

He tasted his mother's cooking in these delicious dishes.

That's the taste of home.

After his mother died suddenly from overwork, Kaneki Ken never tasted such home-style food again.

Before his father Kakashi returned, he ate instant noodles, compressed biscuits, fast food rice balls, and pizza every day.

After Kakashi and Kaneki recognized each other, he ate mostly luxurious delicacies, but he always felt that something was missing.

Now he knows what he's missing.

The two of them thoroughly enjoyed the family dinner.

Nagan Chika put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth.

He looked at Kaneki Ken with a solemn expression and said in a serious tone, "There's something I must tell you..."
