[Comprehensive] Jinmu Rebirth

Chapter 524 Talking in the Snow

After escaping from Ninzu's house, he returned to District 24, which he is most familiar with in this life.

The snow on the top of the head is getting bigger and bigger.

Six diamond-shaped snow particles fell in front of his eyes, stained his eyelashes, and fell down again when he blinked.

Kaneki Ken walked unconsciously near the University of Tokyo, wandering slowly along the route he used to go to school.His original intention was to sit in a quiet bar or coffee shop for one night, but the crowd celebrating Christmas in the early morning brought excitement to the surroundings, rendering a strong festive atmosphere.

Among these young men and women, he was shocked to find that he had no vitality at all.

Black hair, black suit, black tie...

He is dressed in a solemn dress that is incompatible with the festival, pure black, walking among the festive red and green of Christmas, snowflakes have accumulated a thin layer on his shoulders, but it is like the wind and frost of the journey.

Ken Kaneki walked past the hamburger restaurant that he and Ying loved the most. BIGGIRl had closed the store in the early morning, so he couldn't see the maid and the delicious hamburger he saw when he woke up in his freshman year.He crossed another road, looked sideways in front of a red trash can, and remembered that he had rescued Miss Lee Shi from the hands of Senior Yue Shan, and stuffed the unconscious Miss Lee World into the trash can .

Rows of neat and brand-new street lamps made him fall into memories.

Once upon a time, he wore the twilight, dyed his hair into another color, and walked secretly on the roads of District 24 and other districts. Only street lights could make him feel that he had returned to human society.

During the day, he attends classes at school, and at night, he handles the affairs of the ghouls with ease.

In the blink of an eye, he went from being 23 years old.

The height has changed, the weight has changed, and even the surname has changed, but the desire to return to the crowd has not changed.

He wants to be a person who can bask in the sunshine without hiding his smile.

Together with Ying...

come back.

Kaneki Ken's eyes were filled with warmth, Ying said that he was not dead, maybe it was true, maybe it was fake, but it was nothing... A person like Ying would definitely not go to hell after death.

But is there hell and heaven in this world?

he does not know.

If the ghouls are abandoned by the world, how can human beings be protected by the world? Everyone is losing while surviving, lingering in this wrong and twisted world.

Finally, Kaneki Ken came to the duplex apartment where he first lived.

Lights were on in the windows of the apartment.

The new tenant has already moved in, probably another student like him who wants to be closer to the school.

An apartment is different from other houses. The property right of the house is very short. People who will buy an apartment are probably those who simply regard the apartment as a place to stay, except for those who are greedy for the cheapness in front of them.

For example, Mr. Arima...

Thinking of this, Jin Muyan slowly moved away and walked to another place to avoid the snow.

He didn't carry any identification and didn't want to see his friends, so he was so happy that he even used up the little cash he brought.After officially becoming a Sanwu personnel, he let go of some physical and mental constraints, found a place to sit down, bent his legs, and quietly enjoyed the first snow of the year.

On the contrary, the hazy vision at night gives Xue an artistic beauty. What is transparent like snow is childhood, death, and all the cold things related to paleness.

His eyes were gradually half-closed, Kaneki Ken felt a rare sense of tiredness in the cold snowy night.

He wants to sleep.

With his back against the public bench in the garden, that's all he wanted to do for the night.

What is the heir of the Hexiu family... He doesn't want to think about things like the one-eyed centipede. Why does he have to live so tiredly even if the sky falls and there is a tall man to support him.

"stand up."

A cold voice came from not far behind.

Kaneki Ken felt that he must be hallucinating, so he continued to ignore it and squinted his eyes for a while.

The next moment, his eyes were shrouded in shadows, and the tip of his nose smelled a cold breath.

It's colder than snow.

Ken Kaneki looked up in dismay, and it turned out that he had disturbed a person who could not be messed with.

"I'm just going back here to take a look, Mr. Arima ignores me."

"..."

Arima Kisho didn't speak, but his eyes seemed to see through the other party.

The tall man is a beautiful sight in the snowy night, he watched Kaneki Ken sitting on the chair with cold eyes, the snow melted into his white hair, almost no difference could be seen.

Suddenly, Ken Kaneki became interested in speaking, "Mr. Arima, do you regret it... If you knew this would happen, you might as well make me a Quinker weapon."

Only Jin Muyan dared to chat with the other party about this kind of topic.

"No."

He was answered with calm words.

Kaneki Ken's eyes were curious, slightly questioning, and "I don't understand" was clearly written in his eyes.

"Compared to the Kuink weapon that will be damaged, your existence is rarer." Under Arima Kisho's glasses, the pair of light gray eyes hidden behind were like ice and snow.If Kaneki Ken looked like a walking dead on this night, then Arima Kisho was the one who blurred the boundary between life and death.

"I never thought of killing you, Kaneki Ken."

"really?"

Kaneki Ken didn't have a trace of resentment, and simply stated a fact: "But every time you strike hard, you will kill me if you don't pay attention. Sometimes I am really afraid of you, Mr. Arima."

"That's your own problem." Kisho Arima said coldly, "You provoke me again and again, and I only spare your life for the sake of your potential. The weak obey the strong. You have completely forgotten the truth, right? You like to show off your bravery at critical times."

Kaneki Ken lowered his head and smiled indifferently: "Probably."

I like to be brave.

This is a habit he doesn't intend to change.

In the wind and snow, the temperament of the master and apprentice talking in the garden is very similar. They are both lonely people walking on their own roads in this world, with cliffs on both sides of their feet.

But one thing is different -

Ken Kaneki has a soft heart, lacking the tough coldness of Kisho Arima.

Arima Kishou stared at his disciple, and asked him in an extremely indifferent voice.

"Why can't you learn to plunder life like me?"

"That's not happy."

"Is it important to be happy?"

"That's... the only thing that can make me live like a normal person, like reading a book, I will feel happy and not feel the passage of time, and keeping my bottom line will also make me feel happy, as if I It is still a human being, and will not be swallowed by the raging darkness in the heart."

"There is no point in deceiving yourself by propping yourself up with something that is too fragile."

"Mr. Arima, so I am not you."

Kaneki Ken didn't feel ashamed at all, and frankly admitted his problem, "That's all I can do, whether you are satisfied or not, it is impossible to change me."

These words made Kisho Arima's mouth curl up, as if laughing at his innocence.

"Haven't you changed a long time ago?"

"..."

"The life of He Xiu's family for three years, could it be another one-eyed ghoul that changed?"

"..."

"You are just trapped in the definition of 'human being', covering your eyes and refusing to take a look at the reality of this world. Could it be that your eager hunger is all an illusion?"

"...I don't want to be that kind of person. A person who succumbs to desire is a beast."

"Then take control of it."

"You are in a difficult situation, Mr. Arima."

Ken Kaneki just relaxed in the chat, with a smile on his face, when Kisho Arima's cold stare extinguished a little warmth in his heart, and his expression was completely dead with one sentence.

"I never thought that with a disciple like you, I would teach you a third time."

Blame me.

Kaneki Ken thought blankly: It's not that I want to lose my memory.

Kisho Arima glanced at Ken Kaneki Ken's appearance of a dead pig not afraid of boiling water, not interested in staying in the snow for too long, and walked back to the apartment, "Come here, don't embarrass yourself outside."

Kaneki Ken didn't want to move at first, but when he saw the back of this man walking in front, his eyes suddenly became sour, and he felt as if he was being sheltered behind him.

As long as he doesn't move, Kisho Arima will be the first to be hit by the wind and snow.

That person has never been weak for countless years.

For some reason, he followed up slowly, trying to shorten the gap between them, and walk forward like the other party through his life.

Can it be done?

It can't be done, but I want to try anyway.

Anyway—

No matter how bad it is, it can't be worse than it is now. His ruined life is a mess. Only the other party can give suitable suggestions and help him rebuild a new framework on the ruins of destruction.

"Mr. Arima, is it alright for you to take me in?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't take me in."

Let Kaneki Ken sleep in the open air near the apartment all night?

Arima Kisho does not want his daytime working time to become lecture time at the headquarters.

In Hexiu's mansion, Hexiu Changji, who also did not fall asleep, looked far away after receiving the news, thinking whether his grandson liked the apartment over there, or would he buy your general's apartment as a gift to him?

Thinking that your general doesn't have a second residence in Tokyo, he shook his head.

Forget it.

Let your general take care of it for him.

Putting aside all kinds of worries, He Xiu Changji, who had been working all day, was about to go to bed when he suddenly glanced at a few picture books of dragons on the bookshelf, and a look of kindness and dignity flashed in his eyes.

"This matter...is a big trouble."

If the incident during the "Dragon Subduing Ceremony" was exposed, the roof of Hexiu's mansion would probably be torn off.

Think of a way to prevent it in advance.
