Just as Touka Kirishima solved the two Doves, the broadcast of task completion rang in Ryuji's mind.
Ryuji's words made Touka Kirishima stop what she was doing, and looked at Ryuji with a stunned expression.
A Ghoul actually refusing food was a situation that Touka Kirishima had never encountered before. Moreover, judging from Ryuji's strength, it didn't seem like he hadn't eaten people much.
"Ryuji, right! So you like me? Are you trying to curry favor with me?" Touka Kirishima asked Ryuji very bluntly.
Hearing this, Ryuji couldn't help but be amused by Touka Kirishima's words.
Seeing Ryuji smile, Touka Kirishima felt that Ryuji's smile was very good-looking, and made people feel very comfortable.
"What are you laughing at?" Touka Kirishima asked again.
"I've never seen a girl ask me if I like her as soon as we meet. You're the first one," Ryuji replied with a smile.
"Most importantly, I don't even know what you look like. How do you know I like you? What if you're an ugly woman?" Ryuji then teased.
Hearing Ryuji's teasing, Touka Kirishima wasn't too angry, but asked again, "Then why did you give me all the people?! Don't you need food?"
Ryuji shook his head, and then said, "I don't eat people!"
Hearing this, Touka Kirishima didn't believe it at all: "That joke isn't funny. Ghouls can't survive without eating people!"
Just after she finished speaking, Touka Kirishima seemed to have thought of something again, and then became vigilant towards Ryuji at once. Then she took the initiative to distance herself from Ryuji, and said at the same time, "Are you a cannibalistic Ghoul?"
Cannibalistic was a term for Ghouls devouring their own kind. In other words, if Ghouls didn't eat humans, they could also survive by eating their own kind.
Moreover, extremely powerful existences among Ghouls had all cannibalized before. Because cannibalism could also obtain the kakuhou of other Ghouls, making themselves even more powerful.
However, the risks of cannibalism were much greater than eating people. After all, Ghouls were more aggressive than humans, so if they weren't careful, they might end up losing their own lives.
So when she heard Ryuji say that he didn't eat people, Touka Kirishima immediately became nervous. Thinking of Ryuji's rude behavior towards her just now, Touka Kirishima felt even more that Ryuji was a cannibalistic Ghoul. If Ryuji was a cannibalistic Ghoul, then the situation would be dangerous, because Touka Kirishima felt that she might not be able to beat Ryuji.
Hearing this, Ryuji immediately found a reason to explain, "Don't be nervous. I'm not a cannibalistic Ghoul. I maintain my life by blood, so I never kill humans."
"If I had bad intentions towards you, why would I say so much to you!"
"That's true!" Touka Kirishima also felt that this was the case. Although she was no longer so vigilant, she was still secretly guarding against Ryuji in her heart.
"I can't carry two people away either. I'll give you the other one!" Touka Kirishima didn't become greedy afterwards. Instead, she only wanted one person. Then she carried the Dove that had already been put into the sleeping bag on her back. Before leaving, she looked at Ryuji for the last time, and thanked, "Thank you!"
Seeing that Touka Kirishima was about to leave, Ryuji immediately grabbed Touka Kirishima's arm, and then stopped, "Wait!"
Seeing Ryuji stop her from leaving, Touka Kirishima felt that Ryuji was even stranger.
