Where am I?
I know I got into Nutcracker's car together with Investigator Juzo...
Hello? This is 3rd Grade Mutsuki. Come in.
It's no use.
Take it away.
"MAIN: Auction"
Hi! Yay!
Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for waiting for so long.
The auction is about to get underway.
The tasks of both masters of ceremonies and auctioneers tonight...
...will be seen to by us, the Clowns.
Please enjoy yourselves to your hearts' content.
And now, the first item of merchandise for the night.
This is Yoshiki Okura, the once popular actor.
S-Stop this!
Don't do this!
Bidding will start at 10 million.
10 million!
11 million!
Hmph, what value is there for a washed-up actor?
It's easy to attach a high price to a celebrity.
At any rate, this is definitely not in good taste--
21 million!
--24 million! --25 million!
30 million.
Okay, it is now a one-on-one battle between bidders 33 and 1.
31 million!
32 million.
32.5 million!
35 million.
Bidder 33 has the final bid.
Who is that man?
They call him "Croque Monsieur."
He's in a different conglomerate than Big Madam,
but he's also a billionaire ghoul.
This is the way that humans are traded, then?
They have different worth depending on the person.
Then again, they probably don't think they have any worth of their own,
which is why they attach prices to others like they were things.
If I had that kind of money...
Toru...?
The starting bid is one million yen...
...or so I was about to say...
But this one has quite an unusual scent.
--Is that--It can't be! Hey! --Huh? How can this be?
A one-eyed... ghoul!
This is it! This is the only thing that can perk Master Shu up!
One-eyed?
Ayato! How can I join in, too?! It's Toru! Toru is being bid on!
What are you babbling about?
Toru...
This is quite the rarity!
Which means that I must ask the starting bid to be 10 million yen!
--10 million! --12 million!
15 million!
17 million!
What? Someone tell me, what do I do?
What's my method? What's my strategy?
Do I fight here alone? Is this where I...? Teach...!
Your plan failed. Help isn't coming.
--65 million! --70 million yen!
80 million!
100 million!
Of course I want to keep a person as rare as that! 120 million!
This time, Madam is not backing down!
140 million!
However, bidder 110 is not backing down, either!
150 million!
180 million!
200 million!
Bidder 1, Madam, has the final bid.
Master... Shu...
Your merchandise will be delivered afterward.
--Please report to the reception desk.
--200 million. 200 million! --Please report to the reception desk.
A kiss to 200 million!
200 million. 200 million!
And now, let's keep the excitement going by introducing our next lot.
Presenting another exceptionally beautiful young lady,
who I suspect will also fetch a high price.
Oh! Look at that fair skin and those large eyes! She almost looks like a doll!
Madam, feast your eyes on that! With a girl like that, you could...
Madam...?
--All right, our starting bid-- --You won't need one.
It's Suzuya! The doves are out to get us!
Madam, let's get out of here!
Juzo...!
The doves...
Move in.
Attention, all personnel. Mission 1 is to exterminate the ghouls in the building.
Eliminate Big Madam in particular, at any cost.
We anticipate intervention from Aogiri Tree,
but do not let this opportunity pass, no matter what.
Mission 2 is to rescue any civilians.
Your top priority is the safety of abducted civilians.
I have to say that, or there will be too much trouble afterward.
People's lives may be top priority,
but the most important thing is to get Big Madam.
Hmm...
The enemy? Is that the enemy, Gagi and Guge?
Gagi.
Guge.
--There are a lot of them. I'll contact my squad--
--Quit your gabbing, old lady! --There are a lot of them. I'll contact my squad--
In this situation...
...first to strike is first to snicker!
Are you watching this, Boss God?!
That boneheaded idiot!
Engagement at the front! A White Suit! It's Naki from Aogiri!
Request immediate backup--
Tateshima Squad, Isai Squad, come with me! We'll take the White Suits!
--Roger! --Roger!
Hinami, what's happening outside?
It looks like teams are assembling at the front and sides.
We're surrounded, huh?
Tell Naki and Miza to open up a hole in their cordon.
I'm going to go guard Big Madam.
All right.
A-Ayato, wh-what should I do...?
Mr. Saeki, you come with me.
Juzo...
Ma--
That one-eyed ghoul from earlier-- If I take advantage of all this confusion...
Matsumae...
--Go on ahead. --Hmm?
Something came up that I need to take care of.
Just now.
Quinx Squad arriving at the entrance. Aogiri forces sighted.
Now engaging!
Is that Haise Sasaki?
His moves are a lot like Investigator Arima's.
The enemy at the entrance has been eliminated. Proceeding to--
Who's this twitchy skinhead?
Kokakus. Big ones, too.
1st Grade Sasaki, keep advancing.
But sir...
We'll deal with him.
Associate Special Investigator Ato...
Guys, let's go!
Yeah!
Ukakus, back me up. Don't hit any of us, though.
Roger that!
♪ 200 million... two-two-two... ♪
Toru...
Aah! We can't go out the front!
--Head around to the back! Damn it, who told the doves?!
--Huh? What's this about? --Head around to the back! Damn it, who told the doves?!
200 million!
Going up against this rabbit,
I may be at a bit of a disadvantage without my Jason.
Your plan failed. Help isn't coming.
Why would he lie to me about that?
In fact, how did he know about the operation in the first place?
Servus!
What are you doing down here...
...Kätzchen?
That's Naki. He's a tough one.
How many have we lost?!
I don't know!
I'll get him!
N-Numa!
I-Is that...?
The S-rated... Three Blades!
I'm glad you're here, Miza!
Don't use my name, you boneheaded idiot!
Yee-haw!
We're outmatched, huh?
If this keeps up...
Yahoo!
Wha--?!
I've seen your face somewhere before, huh?
I'm damn sure I've forgotten your name, though.
Stand back.
I've got him.
Don't go too far ahead, 1st Grade Shibashi!
The era of you old-timers is long over, subordinate-killer Shimoguchi.
The new generation is about to create a new age.
That's the way it is.
S--
Spare... Spare...
...me!
Delicious!
This is why I can't stand youngsters!
Yikes!
You're not getting away!
Hey there, Mr. Hirako.
The doves are already near the main hall.
Multiple Aogiri soldiers are unreachable!
--Get Big Madam to the basement under the stage.
--There's a spine-user where Naki is. --Get Big Madam to the basement under the stage.
A spine-user...
Miss Yotsume...
Are you all right?
I'm fine.
Have the Aogiri members in the grand hall pull out and head to the roof.
After we've regrouped, we'll go to aid Naki and Miza.
Rabbit won't need any assistance.
The escort detail will continue guard duty.
Where did Mr. Saeki go?
What a Blitz!
Master Shu...
I've found it...
Welcome back, glorreich--
Wha--?!
Thank goodness.
Toru! It's me! It's Torso!
You won't get away!
What have you done to my Toru--
You lowly trash!
You dare to defy me?!
Scheisse!
If I don't catch her, I'll be back to kill you!
You just lie there until I do!
Toru... My...
Toru...!
Mm-hmm, it looks like the fighting is in full swing.
What if we were to drop the Owl into the mix,
--Eto? --Good idea.
Ready to go, Takizawa?
I'm hungry...
Thanks, Investigator Ato.
That's okay. Now, back me up.
If 1st Grade Sasaki has been sent on ahead, it means...
...their combat rating is higher than ours.
As an associate special investigator, I have mixed feelings...
...but their potential is something else, that's for sure.
Their new techniques and abilities
are leaving old fogies like me in the dust.
Mr. Marude, are you crazy?! He's still just a child!
You'll see soon enough how crazy I am.
No matter how weak a person's faith is,
there comes a moment when they come into contact with God.
It's when they come face to face with overwhelming talent.
I... have seen God.
I have seen the unfairness of God.
Still, though I may be an ordinary man, ignored by both gods and devils,
with enough experience, I can still...
...amount to something decent!
Wha--?
Just like a freshly-picked pineapple.
"Tokyo Ghoul:re"
"Next Time"
Your wound is already healed?
...this nuggety sensation!
Jam...
--O-ho, for real?! --I can't hold him!
