Chapter 8 Solving the Ghoul Eating Problem
The next moment, in an apartment in the Tokyo Ghoul universe.

A large amount of gas gathered and compressed in an instant, and a figure appeared out of thin air.

Looking at Zuko who appeared out of nowhere on the sink, Kaneki Ken was startled and fell backwards, sitting on the bathroom floor tiles.

“Hi~” Zuko waved happily to Kaneki Ken and jumped lightly off the sink.

“.Hi, Mr. Chu.” Kaneki Ken smiled awkwardly and stood up from the ground: “Your way of appearance is very special.”

Because of the chat group, translation will be done between group members speaking different languages, and there are no communication barriers.

However, Chu Ke really couldn’t get used to the honorifics used in daily life, where people always called him “you” when they opened their mouths and “sir” when they closed their mouths.

However, given Kaneki Ken’s current personality, it would be difficult for him to change this habit in a short period of time, so Zuko did not mention it.

“I’ll pay more attention next time. Let’s get down to business.” Chu Ke glanced at the watch on his hand: “I have some things to do over there. Let’s make quick work of your problem.”

He was frying steak in the pan. Although Chu Ke really didn’t like eating steak that was 5% or 6% rare and bloody, he still liked it a little more well-done. But if it was too well-done, the taste would be affected.

“Tell me a little bit about your situation.”

“Yeah!” Kaneki Ken nodded shyly and quickly took out a small notebook with the plan he had written in advance.

“Since I still want to maintain my human form, I’ll just choose the first three-word spirit set.” Having just experienced becoming a ghoul, Kaneki Ken is now a little ptsd about topics like “changing race”.

The ghoul at least has some semblance of human form, but the upright person in the group now seems to be turning into a little dragon.

It is worth mentioning that the dragon genes seem to have been assimilated a lot there. At least the wings and scales growing on Steve’s body are all pixel-style.

“OK.” Zuko glanced at the vomit in the toilet and the half hamburger on the sink, thought for a while and said, “You can’t eat normal people’s food now, right? I’ll see if I can change it for you.”

In fact, Chu Ke really wanted to try what would happen if Kaneki Ken drank the milk in the MC. Would the “half-ghoul” be judged as a state and eliminated, or would it be divided into organs and calculated like in the osteogenesis imperfecta mod?

However, Chu Ke still suppressed his curiosity. For this kind of thing, he could just find a passing ghoul on the road and try it out. There was no need to use his friends in the chat group to do the experiment.

Being unable to eat normal human food is something that happens to almost every ghoul or half-ghoul, and is one of the main reasons for the conflict between ghouls and humans in the Tokyo Ghoul story.

In this special worldview, there is a special kind of cell called RC cells. Everyone carries RC cells to a greater or lesser extent. The cell value of an ordinary person is between 200 and 500, while that of a ghoul is at least 1000 or more.

It is the rejection of these special cells that causes ghouls to only be able to eat food that also contains RC cells, namely human flesh and ghoul flesh. Otherwise, they will vomit continuously and be completely unable to digest it and obtain the energy needed for survival.

However, there is also a small group of artificial half-ghouls called “Quinx” who can consume both human flesh and normal food.

The main reason is that they only have the “Kakubun” transplanted from other ghouls as a means of attack, and their other organs are still normal. That is to say, some RC cells in their bodies except for the Kakubun will not be higher than other normal people. In addition, some psychological hints allow them to eat normal food to obtain energy.

Now, there are two solutions to solve Kaneki Ken’s eating problem: 1. Chuko directly uses the basic force to create normal food containing RC cells. The advantage is that it can ensure the RC cell content in Kaneki Ken’s body so that his combat power does not decline. The disadvantage is that he needs to be replenished from Chuko from time to time. 2. Directly suppress the concentration of RC cells in Kaneki Ken’s body except for the kura, making Kaneki Ken become a similar existence to Quinx. The advantage is that it is simple and convenient and does not require Chuko to get food from time to time. The disadvantage is that Kaneki Ken, as a one-eyed ghoul, has a lower combat power.

But Chu Ke is an adult, so he chooses both.

Zuko snapped his fingers, and the basic force instantly began to affect Kaneki Ken’s body – first, the RC cells were extracted until they were slightly higher than the level of ordinary people, and then the three words selected by Kaneki Ken were stuffed in; then, with a clenched right hand, two bags of seeds appeared in Zuko’s hand.

This is the hybrid plant he created after figuring out the existence of RC cells: potatoes and tomatoes that can produce RC cells.

“Here, take it.” Zuko tossed the seeds to Kaneki Ken and roughly explained his method: “It’s done.”

“In short, you can eat normal food now, but your strength will be affected. When you need it, pick some of these things and chew them. But remember not to eat too much. If you eat too much at one time, your RC cell concentration will return to normal.”

Kaneki Ken selected three Word Spirits, namely [Kamaitachi] for searching, [Sword Control] which is very useful in modern cities, and [Don’t Die] for saving lives. They can resist, fight, heal, and patrol. The brief decrease in combat power of the ghouls has been perfectly compensated.

“Thank you, Brother Chu.” Kaneki Ken held two large bags of seeds and burst into tears while laughing: “Thank you. Thank you, Brother Chu.”

Only he himself would know the feeling of helplessness after suddenly becoming a monster and the fear and disgust of not being able to eat normally and having to eat the flesh of his former self.

Now it has finally been resolved.

Zuko smiled and quietly took a step back.

Even though it’s a clone, you still need to avoid getting your nose stained with snot.

After finishing the important matters, Zuko did not hesitate. He held the game console and discs that Kaneki Ken bought for him. His body disintegrated into air containing basic force and was put into a red envelope by Kaneki Ken and sent back.

On the other side, Zu Ke retracted the dispersed basic force, and the steak was just cooked.

Kaneki had spent a lot of money simply to connect his new PS3 to the TV, and it almost emptied his wallet.

“Wow, there’s Dark Souls?!” Chu Ke flipped through the game discs and unexpectedly found a surprise. He then remembered that Dark Souls seemed to have just been released in 2011, and even found that “Batman: Arkham City” was also released in 2011.

It’s a pity that Ghoul World isn’t in 2017, so we can’t play that legendary game yet.

Chu Ke finally experienced the feeling of Kaneki eating normal food. After experiencing the era of Internet information explosion, the entertainment methods in 2006 were somewhat outdated, and the gaming equipment felt weird to use, and it always felt not satisfying enough.

The family members were in tears.

Next, there is something to pass the time.
