23rd Ward, Cochlea Detention Center

In one room in the Cochlea, there was dead man laying on the ground, both of his hands were severed and in his chest was the giant bloody hole. He had a pale and skinny face and one vertical scar on each side of his lips. His hair was cut as mushroom and he looked rather weird. This was deputy warden of the Cochlea Detention Center, Haisaki Shinme, who was just now killed by Lucien when he was searching for the Kijima Shiki.

One must say that Haisaki Shinme wasn't a strong person, as he could barely even dodge one of Lucien's attacks. And that attack was a very weak one. He was killed in mere seconds and it was easy to kill. In contrary, his strength lied in strategies and plans, he was a person who personally designed many defense mechanisms of the Cochlea Prison.

After that Lucien went to lower floors, in hope to find the last person he wanted to find. Kijima Shiki. He had the strength of the Associate Special Class Investigator and was very good at killing ghouls. Even though he himself was looking as he was, his experiences were real and he could fight pretty good.

Kijima was an exceptionally strange-looking individual with a rotund figure. His face and body were heavily scarred, with discolored skin grafts and facial features that appeared to have been badly mangled or burned in the past. He wore a distinctive black hat and suit, with a red bow tie, and had a peg leg.

He used mainly two quinques, Tetoro, which was an A+-rated quinque of bikaku type. It was used to capture targets. It was also called a capture quinque. Another one was a Rotten Follow, an S-rated rinkaku quinque in form of a large chainsaw. It utilizes a kakuhou as an engine and quinque ores for blades. It is a powerful quinque, easily able to decapitate and slice enemies in half.

After searching through another interrogation room, which was also locked, Lucien finally found his target. Because interrogation rooms, were automatically locked up, many of interrogators and personnel were hiding there. They were locked several minutes after Cochlea was breached. Lucien even tried to open them up through the command computer, but his attempts were all futile.

In this interrogation room, there were several tens of people, even some of the armed staff, several ghoul investigators, probably some weaker trashes, because they run away the moment Cochlea was breached. This was one of the special defense mechanisms of the Cochlea. When it was breached, after several minutes, special areas which could also be called safe areas, would be locked down. One of those areas were all interrogations areas.

But to Lucien or some very strong ghouls, like Tatara or Eto in her Owl form, these measures were nothing. Even though huge doors from the quinque steel, were rather hard to breach, it wasn't something impossible.

Lucien stood before quinque steel doors and then started slashing at the doors, with his kagune tails. With several of them at the same time. Under ferocious attacks from his kagune, after one-minute doors were breached and Lucien could enter the interrogation area.

There were already some Cochlea armed staff and ghoul investigators there, waiting to form him under the leadership of the Kijima Shiki who was armed with his quinque Rotten Follow. Lucien now directly used psionic energy on those ordinary people, that was hiding in the corners of the room, crushing their brains under wawes of the psionic energy. This was a new move he learned after some time of training and studying the psionic energy.

After that he congealed two kagune daggers which shot with the speed of the lighting at the ordinary armed staff and weaker ghoul investigators, slaughtering them in an instant. All of their heads were severed in a moment, and only headless bodies fell onto the ground.

"Mr. Kijima, I was waiting for a long time to kill you."

Said, Lucien, as he rushed at Kijima with lighting speed and slashed at him with three kagune tails at the same time. Kijima tried to defend with his quinque Rotten Follow, but at most he could only defend two tail at the same time. But the third one severed his right hand, which was holding the quinque Rotten Follow.

"You know, I am not a very huge fan of the torture, but that doesn't mean, I don't know it."

Said Lucien with a wicked smile as he was using the same method which he used on previous target interrogator Tokage. This time, he was even more precise, causing Kijima to feel even more intense pain. This could be said to be a retribution for all ghouls he tortured to death. Lucien tortured him for several minutes, before severing all his limb and crushing his eyes. He then left him to die in a room filled with corpses, blood, body parts and death. Ironically such a room could be considered as heaven for cultivator who cultivates Death Energy.

Now all of his tasks were done, Lucien went to the third floor of the Cochlea Detention Center, to find Eto and Tatara. Both of them were there because the third floor hosted SS-rated ghouls, but only one would be released by them. Kamishiro Matasaka, even though he was rated as an SS-rated ghoul, his real abilities were much higher. Not talking about him being a martial arts master, he could greatly help the Aogiri Tree grow stronger. And he would play a great role in the next part of Lucien's scheme, Fortification of the 24th Ward, this would be his final gift to the ordinary ghouls. Turning entire 24th Ward into the giant fortress.

Almost entire Cochlea Prison was now filled with corpses and rivers of blood. This was mainly thanks to Lucien because he was also doing his best in finding those safe areas and killing everybody inside. Cochlea Prison has a number of personnel in hundreds. Maybe even a thousand people were killed during this raid. Only shame was that they can't destroy this place. If they did so, some ghouls, which Lucien wanted have captured would either escape during the destruction or some other bad things could happen.
