High Spirits opens the CCG raid on Aogiri. Pinned down by snipers, the investigators break the stalemate when Suzuya hijacks Marude's motorbike and hurls it at the rooftop gunmen. As the base falls under assault, Yamori remains fixated on his prisoner Kaneki.
Summary
Commission of Counter Ghoul forces mass outside the Aogiri Tree stronghold, and Marude fumes over how badly the exchange is going. To break the deadlock and rush the base, Juuzou Suzuya lifts the keys to Marude's motorbike with an assist from Katsuya Mabuchi, then flings the machine at the snipers perched atop the hideout. With the gunmen dead, the investigators pour into the building.
Inside, Ayato wonders aloud what Yamori could possibly be occupied with at such a critical moment. The answer is grim: Yamori rests a hand on Kaneki's head, wholly absorbed in his captive even as the CCG storms the walls around them.
Key Events
The CCG assault on the Aogiri hideout begins in earnest. Suzuya clears the rooftop snipers by launching Marude's motorbike, opening the way inside. Yamori stays locked on Kaneki, ignoring the battle unfolding across the base.
Notes
Titled 衝天 (Shoten), this twenty-page Volume 7 chapter appeared in issue 2013-03-04 on December 20, 2012, between Chapters 59 and 61. A background detail shows Mabuchi lifting Marude's keys, marked by a faint clink near the commander's pocket, a quiet payback for Marude's earlier rudeness.
