So people said more pretty quickly. Yes, bangladesh3610, there will be more of the CCG meeting in this one. Hope you all like this as much as the first :)

Now here's the story.

"Yes. These are the two we think may be Eyepatch and Rabbit. Before anybody asks, why yes really, " Washuu confirmed Arima's question.

Another round of snickers followed this announcement. Apparently the CCG officers hadn't gotten over the comedic performance between the pair of suspects.

"Alright... so shall we continue studying the tape?"

Everyone nodded at Kuroiwa's suggestion. CCG meetings tended not to be this entertaining.

"Wait a minute... so, when Kirishima-san called him an artificial butt... did she mean she was going to rearrange his face to look like a butt, or was that metaphorical?" the head scientist asked.

Awkward silence followed his question.

"Let's just watch more of the tape and find out," Arima told him.

"Okay. So start from the front of the store- NOT the men's room!- and film the aisles so I can figure out where the raincoats are relative to your position." Touka ordered Kaneki.

He walked out toward the front of the store. "Kay, I'm here..." he told her. He picked the phone up further, to show her the aisle markers hanging from the ceiling.

"You know, you owe me one for this, Ken."

"I'll bring you a souvenir from the Soup Emporium. Keychain, maybe? Or a raincoat?" Kaneki sassed her.

"Very funny." Touka answered.

Noise came from Touka's end of the phone.

"What? Is that Hide in your apartment?" Kaneki asked.

"Yes. He wants to be on the phone- hey! Temee!" The last two words were muffled as Hide grabbed the phone.

"Hey! Can I get a souvenir too?" Hide asked.

"Uh, sure. What do you want?"

"They have this awesome soup in aisle thirteen, 's called Chocalatta Soup, and it's chocolate and latte, so go find it please?"

"Uh, sure, but chocolate and latte? Are you sure this stuff exists?" Kaneki said.

"Sure I'm sure! Aisle thirteen!"

"Gimme that! Thank you. Now, YOU- Kaneki- go find this stuff for him, and then we can look for your slicker!" Touka bossed the pair around.

Kaneki walked to aisle thirteen. He held the phone up to the aisle marker. "This is it?"

"Yes!" Hide said happily.

"Okay, here goes." Kaneki walked into the aisle.

A few seconds later Kaneki said, "Touka? You won't believe this." He panned the camera to the shelf. There sat a can of soup, labeled 'Chocolatta Soup'.

"What?! It's a real thing?! This chocolate soup actually EXISTS?!"

"Chocolatta soup! Chocolatta soup! Chocolatta soup! Chocolatta soup!" Hide started chanting. He didn't stop, really, but it managed to fade into the background.

"I can't believe this is real..." Kaneki said quietly.

"Well grab a can or two to shut up the chanting maniac in my apartment!"

Kaneki picked one can, then asked, "Hide! You're getting the soup so will you shut up please?!"

"No!" Hide cheerfully threw in. He kept chanting, unfortunately for the ghouls listening. Shinohara thought this was hilarious.

"Alright then, you're in aisle thirteen... so go to the end and turn left..." Touka said, rubbing her temples.

Kaneki followed her instruction.

"Now go to the end..- turn LEFT, not right, you dolt!"

"Well how was I to know that? You never specified!" Kaneki snapped.

"I gestured left with my head! You didn't look at the screen!" Touka yelled.

"That was supposed to be gesturing? Raising your left eyebrow? Which, by the way, is to my right?" Kaneki said dryly.

"Yes! You're supposed to be the resident genius! Not me!"

"Seriously? They should analyze your brain when they do your autopsy! Find out just what makes people stupid! Really, who calls raising an eyebrow a 'move that way' gesture?!"

This time, Arima paused the recording. He was kind of bored, really, and thought the guy singing was annoying.

"Alright! So who is this third guy suspected to be?" Arima barked.

"I don't know, we're not investigating him. Actually, the way he was singing about soup, I say he's human. Did you have to pause the video?" Washuu told him.

"Did anybody else notice Touka barely raised her eyebrow? He- she called him Kaneki, right? Or something like that?" Shinohara asked.

"I think you're just remembering names from the investigation report, but yeah. What about him?" Kuroiwa said.

"Well, she doesn't give him enough credit. I know I didn't see her raise her eyebrow. Did you guys?" Shinohara finished.

'Do I know the soup guy from someplace?' Arima thought.

"Come to think of it, no, I didn't see her raise her eyebrow," Washuu said.

"Yes... rewind to the beginning of the eyebrow incident, will you?- Arima? Are you listening?" Kuroiwa asked.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm listening," Arima said, messing around with the projector.

Arima replayed the clip. He thought she did raise her eyebrow, but he couldn't be sure. It was kind of an odd way to gesture, he supposed.

"Okay, did anyone see if she raised her eyebrows?" Washuu asked. A series of 'no's' and 'maybe's' rippled around the circle, the chain broken by only one 'yes'.

'How much longer will we be seeing this clip? And since when am I the tech guy?' Arima thought.

"Okay, Arima? Play it again, and zoom in on Kirishima's face this time. I want to know how Kaneki caught it on first sight. This is definitely suspicious."

'You just thought that was hilariously funny. Shit. I'm the unofficial techie now. Aren't I?'

After watching this for the third time, most of the first-class investigators agreed she had indeed raised her eyebrow, and those that didn't see it couldn't say she hadn't.

'Well finally. At least we won't be sitting here watching five seconds of idiocy all day like the Athena case! And the Owl one too, which was essentially pointless because that one turned out to be a political framing.' Arima thought. He decided that not saying anything would be in his best interests, as everything he had to say was insulting, the curse words that flashed through his head on a minutely basis, and/or likely to get him fired.

"Play the rest now, Arima." Washuu ordered.

'Fuck you,' Arima thought.

"Fine! Okay! I'm going left already!" Kaneki snapped at Touka.

"You better be!" Touka yelled back.

"Why? You can punch through a phone? Hah! Good luck!" Kaneki retorted.

"Insult contest! You lose, you owe me twice! You win, and I'll let you off without paying for my help! Deal?" Touka told him, annoyed.

"Deal! You're wearing cheese underpants up rat alley, she-pig! She-warthog, that is!" Kaneki said.

"Tame bastard lab-rat!"

"Violent mama ogre!"

'Now we get to the good part,' Arima thought. 'Why does she keep making experiment jibes at him?'
