I was wrong. It wasn't me who was eating ghouls...
I'm the one...
who was being eaten.
Almost there.

The Hanging Man
Due to the frequent attacks made by well-organized groups of ghouls,
the Commission of Counter Ghoul has made the destruction of hidden ghoul bases a primary objective.
They are currently seeking more information.

Are you sure you're asking the right person about this?
What's it like to fall in love with someone?
Well, it's not that easy to explain...
It's hard to put into words.
It's like...
Like what?
You feel like doing things for their sake and spending time with them.
Simple things like that. I guess.

I doubt any of this actually helped.
No, I wouldn't say that. Thanks.
What's this? Talking about me? Once upon a time, the Devil Ape—
Koma-san, please.
Ah, come... right on in.
The lingering scent of Kaneki-kun laced with the rich aroma of coffee in the air of this shop...
The space in here, mingling with the ultimate, supreme epicurean delight, is truly...
El Dorado!
Is Yoshimura in?
You're certain about this?
Yes. Kaneki-kun...
appears to be committing serial cannibalism.
Is he trying to become a kakuja?
Serial cannibalism in order to become a kakuja.
By doing so, Kaneki-kun is...
Kaneki-kun is...
Kaneki-kun is altering his flavor!
Tsukiyama-kun, can I continue to rely on you to gather information for me?
Of course! Of course! By all means!
I was planning to do so, even if you hadn't asked me to,
Yoshimura.
Um...
What is it, Little Hinami?
Is Onii-chan... I mean...
Don't worry, Little Princess.
Kaneki-kun is all right.
He's not dead, at least.
Flower Princess, would you care for a little chat?
I went to a coffee shop with Kaneki-kun once.
Would you like to go see it?
Okay.
Well then, let us be off, to enjoy our secret café time!
Okay, how about "hydrangea"?
Hortensia.
"Hortensia"?
Excellent!
Okay then, what about "sweet osmanthus"?
Sweet osmanthus... Olivier odorant.
"Olivier odorant."
It almost sounds like the name of a person.
Yes, it does. Sweet osmanthus...
"Humility." "A noble man."
Floriography, for sweet osmanthus.
Floriography?
There's a meaning behind every flower's name,
and each name can carry multiple meanings.
For example, the sweet osmanthus can mean both "humility," and "noble man."
Doesn't Kaneki-kun fit that description pretty well?
Yeah!
Also, "first love."
Huh?
"Enduring charm," "the brilliance of memories," as well as...
"true love."
How cute, Little Hinami. Please excuse me, I need a restroom break.
Hina sweetie! Hey! Heyo!
Ta-Takatsuki-san!
How lucky of me to run into you again, Hina sweetie!
Welcome!
I'm happy to see you, too!
Got something on your mind?
I knew it! This old lady knows her stuff.
Why don'tcha tell me all about it?
Oh, mister, I'll have one iced coffee, please.
Certainly.
I want to help out Onii-chan, but there's nothing I can do.
I see you're pretty honest with yourself, huh?
To be honest, I don't think there's a lot that you can do.
You're so gentle, warm, and fuzzy, so I'm sure you've been loved growing up.
I can only assume that your Onii-san wanted to be loved as well.
Despite that strong look in his eye, he's still afraid of being all alone.
The two of you come from completely different worlds, Hina-chan.
I'm sorry if that hurts you,
but there's no point in lying to you with kind words.
I don't think you can help him the way you are right now, Hina-chan.
I... think you could be right.
Well, then.
I have to be somewhere for an interview.
Here ya go.
At your age, Hina-chan, there are just some things that you can't handle on your own.
I know I went through times like that, myself.
Just saying!
So whenever you're feelin' glum, don't hesitate to call me.
Okay!
Kaneki-kun...
I remember this...
Come to think of it, this is where it all started, isn't it?
Our...
Sweet memories...
And...
Sweet harmonies!
Sweet osmanthus!
Floriography!
One last meaning...
One last meaning!
"Euphoria"!
Mellow...
Nothing happened today, either.
I'd like to ask an investigator directly.
Low-profile investigating is important, Juuzou.
But it's super boring.
Oh! Nice!
Wh-What do you want?
How did you get those X's?
H-Hey, you can't do that!
Oh, Investigator Shinohara, this woman said she was waiting for an interview.
Er, doesn't CCG have a policy against giving and accepting interviews?
That's true. But she's somewhat famous, so...
So I hear you're a novelist?
Yes. Wow, this is CCG, huh? Are pictures allowed? Probably not.
Generally, we turn down interviews.
Oh, I understand. I just wanted to know about one little thing.
I need it for my next book. I want to write about ghouls.
Well, if it's something I can answer...
That'll be fine. Then, I'll get right to the point.
Is it possible to artificially create a ghoul?
How do you mean?
Say, if you were to take a ghoul's genes, or blood, or organs, or what have you,
and transplant them into a human and make them a ghoul.
I'm asking whether or not that's possible.
I'm... not sure about that.
So... "I'm not sure about that."
I'm a field agent, so that's something I wouldn't know about.
"I wouldn't know."
I don't think there's any point in making any more dangerous ghouls...
in the first place.
I see.
Any other questions?
Yes, one more.
What's your name?
Thank you very much. This has been informative.
My, it actually tastes good.
Come to think of it, did you know there's a coffee shop in the 20th Ward
that serves the most delicious coffee?
No...
Actually, there's a rumor about that coffee shop.
Come right on—
I may not be of much help to Onii-chan.
Even so, there has to be something that even I can do.
What's the matter?
Kaneki-san is here now! He's in with the manager!
Ah! Hinami-chan!
Well?
I'm surprised. You've really worked hard, Touka-chan!
What a relief.
Your math and science scores are almost perfect.
Sure enough, classical literature is my worst.
It's all right, Touka-chan, you're really coming along.
If you keep going at it like this...
Oh, but...
Why are you trying so hard, Touka-chan?
Huh? Well...
Just tell me someday, all right?
Hinami?
It's Onii-chan.
Where is he!?
You just missed him.
I talked to the manager.
He told me to come back to Anteiku.
And?
I don't know.
I want to protect all of you.
I don't want to let those precious to me get taken away.
So...
I have to get stronger.
That's why you went to Aogiri?
You have no right to want to protect us.
You say it's for us, but it's obvious that you're only thinking about yourself.
As long as there's someone beside you, I'm fine with it.
Where do you get off, acting like some tragic hero!?
How can someone protect another person if they can't even protect themselves!?
There's nothing waiting for you at Anteiku!
Why!? Why!? Why!?
Why!?
Why...
Why did you have to end up like this?
Why... indeed.
It's been so long, yet the first thing I do is start slugging him.
Being rough and saying all those things probably just made it harder for him to come back.
You can do it!!!
Just study.
Sir, we have doves.
This looks super tasty!
This is quite a chic, handsome shop you have here.
Thank you very much.
So then, you said you needed a word with me?
O-Oh, yes.
Kaneki... Kaneki Ken-kun.
He used to work here, didn't he?
Yes.
Do you know what he's been up to?
We haven't seen or heard anything since we lost contact with him two months ago.
I don't know if this will be of any help to you or not,
but I understand he had recently undergone an organ transplantation.
Apparently, he wasn't doing very well.
Um...
You seem familiar. Have you and I met before?
I'm not sure. Have we ever met?
I'm sorry. I mistook you for someone else.
We're grateful for the help. Let's go, Juuzou.
Thank you, that was delicious.
The coffee... was quite good.
We'll be back.
