District 1, Ghoul Countermeasures Bureau Headquarters.

Abel followed through with Mado and Amon to the entrance of this building.

"Is Arima Kishou inside?"

"I admire your courage, but this is your last chance to reconsider before we enter."

Mado felt that the guy in front of him most likely had a screw loose.

To think he intended to cause trouble for *that* person.

And even dare to follow them to the headquarters, truly audacious.

But this was perfect; the mission could be successfully completed.

The headquarters had an Rc scan gate that could detect the amount of Rc cells in every person passing through.

Since ghouls have more than ten times the number of Rc cells compared to humans, this device could determine whether the target was human or a ghoul.

Of course, before bringing him here, Mado had already found a way to notify the headquarters.

Otherwise, if the other party were to suddenly cause a commotion in the headquarters, resulting in casualties, he and Amon, as the guides, would definitely not get off lightly.

In the face of such an enthusiastic welcome ceremony, Abel, walking ahead, suddenly had a slight smirk on his face.

"You arrogant brat!"

Then, under the gaze of everyone, Abel extended his left hand and pressed his fingers against the other person's chest.

Everyone present was stunned, and for a moment, no one dared to approach.

This person was called Shinohara Yukinori, who used to be Mado's first partner. They often acted together and jointly subdued the notorious Mist Fog Kishou.

Mado took a deep breath and nonchalantly walked through the Rc scan gate.

Ignoring the others, he headed straight for the other side.

"What did you do?"

Shinohara Yukinori's expression darkened. "If you want my weapon, let's see if you have the ability to take it."

After all, Mado and Amon were closely associated with him. When they heard the two might be in danger, how could they sit by and do nothing?

After all, the person in question was just an ordinary human.

Then the next second, something that left everyone present stunned and speechless occurred.

An ear-piercing alarm echoed throughout the headquarters.

"Is it confirmed? Is this guy really not a ghoul?"

Meanwhile, the senior executives of the CCG were also watching the live feed on their monitors.

Even Amon, who had been on high alert, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

This guy was definitely a monster in human skin!

A joke, with Abel's current physical condition plus the quintuple strength enhancement from his talent "Power of the Colossal Beast."

Then, Boom!

With just a light flick, Abel sent Shinohara Yukinori flying backward, crashing heavily into the wall and immediately passing out.

After all, that was Shinohara, a special class investigator!

A formidable figure who had successfully subdued even SS-rated ghouls!

Yet in front of that person, he was as weak as a child.

Suddenly, Mado had some regrets about bringing the person to the headquarters.

At the same time, Shinohara was one of the seven special class investigators at the CCG, known for his indomitable spirit as "Unyielding Shinohara."

Following that, an overwhelming King's Haki swept across the room!

Hundreds of fully armed soldiers instantly passed out.

Entering the CCG headquarters, the first thing he saw was a large group of fully armed soldiers pointing their firearms at him.

For the first time, Mado felt that the situation was beyond his control.

"Senior Shinohara!"

As long as he wasn't a ghoul, the situation hadn't reached its worst point yet.

"Investigator Mado, you might have misunderstood something."

After consuming so much human food and considering the recent results from the Rc scan gate, it was confirmed that the person was indeed human. However, compared to their initial ease, everyone's faces were now marked with gravity and tension.

"In this world, no one can stop me from doing anything."

No sooner had the voice faded than a burly man wielding a large sword and his men surrounded them.

Unfortunately, Abel had no intention of appreciating his kindness.

It was only because of the high cost that the equipment was not yet widespread, installed only at various CCG branches and some wealthy companies.

This was also in consideration of those who risk their lives daily in battle with the Ghouls, protecting the innocent.

Upon seeing this, Abel's eyes lit up, "Your sword is impressive, looks mighty indeed; it's as though it's meant for me."

The final display was normal, prompting a second glance at Abel.

Shinohara Yukinori spoke solemnly, holding a huge cleaver made from the kakuhou of an SS-ranked Ghoul, named 'Quinque,' called Oniyamada Number One!

To everyone's shock, the Oniyamada Number One, swung by Special Class Shinohara, was caught between two fingers?!

"It seems I accidentally used a bit too much strength."

"How many times have you asked this question? According to the results from the Rc scan gate, the person is definitely human."

Even then, Abel was restrained, refraining from killing.

Amon exclaimed in surprise.

"Don't worry, they've just passed out. I generally dislike having guns pointed at me, so I had to put them to sleep for a while."

"Hey, this guy's sternum is likely broken; he could die if we don't get him to a hospital soon."

Considering the other party's track record in hunting Ghouls, even if apprehended, they'd probably still enroll him, and there may be a chance to fight alongside each other in the future.

If he could make the other party move, he would accept defeat!

Saying this, he charged, slashing down with a swipe of his blade!

Challenges to face Kishou Arima and such seemed like nonsense to him.

"Come on, take me to meet Mr. Kishou Arima."

Otherwise, if such technology could be widely disseminated, Ghouls hiding in human society would have nowhere to hide.

"Cease resisting immediately, or I have the authority to use force to apprehend you."

To be almost killed in what seemed like a joke.

It was just an accident earlier.

It was unexpected that the headquarters had informed him to come.

It felt like a joke!

Is today April Fool's Day, by any chance?

Ah, indeed it is.

So was this whole scene actually Shinohara Special Class cooperating in a performance?

A look of shock crossed Shinohara Yukinori's face, and he put all his strength into pressing down, but the blade clamped by the fingers was utterly immobile.

"Your actions have already triggered the headquarters' alarm, and soon a large number of soldiers and investigators will come to capture you. Since you're not a Ghoul, just surrender. I will testify for you and get you released as soon as possible."

Later, he taught at the Ghoul Investigator Training Academy and was Amon's instructor during his time at the academy.

"Could it be a malfunction with the machine?"

"What do you think? Could it all just be a coincidence?"

"I still can't believe that a human could accomplish what was shown in the video earlier solely through their own strength."

Someone voiced what everyone was thinking.
