The next morning, Lin Ze dragged his weary body out of bed.
Now, he only felt soreness all over his body, and even a bit of exhaustion.
Lin Ze dragged his tired body to the window and pulled open the curtains.
Bright sunlight instantly streamed through the window and onto the floor.
Breathing fresh air can make one feel refreshed and wonderful.
“This feeling is amazing~”
Thinking this, Lin Ze couldn't help but sigh.
But he quickly composed himself and turned to wash up in the bathroom.
After breakfast, he put on his work clothes and prepared to leave.
Before leaving, he specifically glanced at Kamishiro Rize, who was soundly asleep on the bed.
At this moment, she was sleeping very sweetly, her delicate and noble face filled with serenity and tranquility.
It was hard to imagine Rize, who distrusted humans the most and only saw them as food and toys.
Actually sleeping so soundly and naturally in his home.
Like a person with no worries, completely at home.
Thinking of this, Lin Ze couldn't help but shake his head.
He had invited a Buddha back, and one that ate people at that.
And not only did she eat meat, she also preferred to eat essence.
.........
After leaving home, he soon arrived at the CCG building in the 20th Ward.
“Good morning, Senior~”
Just as he walked into the office, Suzuya Juuzou enthusiastically greeted him.
“Good morning, Superior Lize~”
Anjiu Nairo and Anjiu Heina, who were organizing documents at their desks, also nodded.
Although it wasn't their first meeting, their delicate and beautiful faces still carried a hint of shy blush, looking very pure and lovely.
“I've already discussed it with Special Investigator Marude, and you are now my subordinates.”
Lin Ze sat down in his seat and said unhurriedly.
He had called Special Investigator Marude last night, and he was originally worried about being rejected.
Unexpectedly, Special Investigator Marude directly told him that he could personally train anyone he thought had potential, and if worst came to worst, he could just open a class.
Perhaps this was the advantage of having both strength and talent.
Thinking this, Lin Ze still felt a bit emotional.
“Thank you, Superior Lize~”
Upon hearing this, a hint of gratitude flashed in the beautiful eyes of Anjiu Heina and Anjiu Nairo.
“No need to thank me, it's nothing major anyway.”
Lin Ze waved his hand, looking very nonchalant.
But in reality, his heart was already blooming with joy.
He had gained two more subordinates, and they were also like Anjiu Heina and Nashiro, who were diligent and meticulous in their work.
That meant his own workload would be reduced, and they could also help Rinze with some tasks.
Killing two birds with one stone, it was perfect~
He thought this to himself, but on the surface, he still had to maintain a serious and approachable demeanor.
Lin Ze lightly coughed and slowly said, “Still the old rules, you handle these documents, I need to go out on patrol.”
Hearing this, Rinze was already used to it and just lazily responded.
She knew that Superior Lize probably just wanted an excuse to go out and play.
However, Anjiu Heina and Nashiro, being new, didn't know this.
In their eyes, Lin Ze's figure was so tall, so magnificent, and so dedicated!
“Superior Lize, you've worked hard~”
Anjiu Nairo and Anjiu Heina bowed respectfully, their beautiful eyes filled with admiration and respect.
Under their admiring gazes, Lin Ze walked out of the office and left the headquarters.
“Finally, I can comfortably slack off~”
Thinking this, Lin Ze stretched, and as usual, arrived at the Antique coffee shop.
He went to the counter as usual to flirt and greet Kirishima Touka.
But he didn't know if it was his imagination, he just felt that her attitude had improved quite a bit, seeming a little more enthusiastic.
However, Lin Ze didn't pay attention, he still sat down in his usual spot.
Even though he had been here for a while, the Ghouls in the coffee shop still looked at him with curious eyes.
After all, perhaps to them, every day Lin Ze lived was a miracle.
But fortunately, he had long been accustomed to it, so it didn't matter.
Lin Ze just wanted to enjoy this peaceful and wonderful atmosphere now.
“This quiet and harmonious feeling is amazing~”
Lin Ze took a sip of coffee and couldn't help but feel emotional.
Bang~
And at this moment, as the crisp sound of the doorbell rang, the door was also pushed open.
“Welcome.........”
Upon seeing a customer arrive, Kirishima Touka turned her head and, as usual, spoke her welcome greeting.
But after clearly seeing who it was, the words in her mouth suddenly stopped.
Even the slight smile on her face instantly vanished, replaced by a hint of disgust.
“Tsukiyama...... What are you doing here?”
Kirishima Touka looked at the newcomer with a disgusted expression, her attitude and tone clearly unwelcoming.
Hearing the commotion, Lin Ze's attention also fell on him.
The man called Tsukiyama was wearing a red suit, with a white shirt underneath, and his purple long hair was combed into a side part.
His face was handsome yet carried a hint of charm, and coupled with his very tall and slender figure, he exuded an elegant aura all over.
Upon seeing this flamboyant and eye-catching appearance, Lin Ze almost instantly recognized his identity without needing to think.
The man in front of him was named Tsukiyama Shuu, code-named Gourmet, an S-Level Ghoul, and his strength was quite outstanding.
But what was most impressive was his devotion, his deep affection for Jin Mu Yan was such that he smelled a handkerchief from the first season to the fourth, describing him as a die-hard fan would be no exaggeration.
Thinking this, Lin Ze still couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Perhaps he and Kineki were true love, and Touka was just an accident.........
“What a...... wonderful scent~”
Tsukiyama Shuu spread his arms, took a deep breath, his handsome and charming face carrying a hint of intoxication.
“Indeed, this is the most relaxing place~”
Tsukiyama Shuu covered his forehead with his fingers, a gentle smile on his handsome face.
He looked elegant and exuded a faint melancholy.
However, it was worth noting that after he entered the door, almost all the Ghouls moved slightly further into their seats, as if most of them didn't want to be associated with him.
“Antique truly lives up to its reputation as the largest gathering place in the early stages; as long as you stay here, you can basically meet all the characters.”
Looking at the flamboyant and eye-catching Tsukiyama Shuu at the doorway, a hint of interest flashed in Lin Ze's eyes.
“Long time no see, I hope you've been well, Miss Touka~”
Tsukiyama Shuu smiled slightly at Kirishima Touka at the counter, like a graceful young nobleman.
Every smile seemed capable of captivating the hearts of countless young girls.
“How disgusting, what are you doing here?”
Kirishima Touka frowned slightly, looking at him as if he were a bug.
Unfortunately, she didn't feel even the slightest bit of charm, only a sense of disgust.
“Still as cold as ever, but that's precisely where your charm lies~”
Perhaps he was already used to it, Tsukiyama Shuu didn't mind, just smiled slightly.
As usual, he scanned everyone in the coffee shop, which was one of his hobbies.
Noticing every new person who came here, to see if he could make like-minded friends, or find delicious meals.
“All old acquaintances, no new customers~”
Tsukiyama Shuu frowned slightly, seemingly a little regretful and disappointed.
But soon, his gaze settled on a beautiful young man with white hair and red eyes.
“This......”
Just at the moment he saw him, Tsukiyama Shuu was slightly startled, his pupils contracting.
His eyes were filled with shock, and even his voice trembled slightly.
“This...... impossible.........”
