It's not that simple.

We'll have to look at Kaneki's character to find that out.

Maybe he only kills those who are bad or the ones who are dangerous to himself and his friends.

But not killing them in this situation, is just as devastating. He just opened every cage in the building if I understood that correct, so those investigators will soon enough encounter other ghouls that don't shy away for cannibalism. Seems like a more cruel death then a clean kill from Kaneki's kagune.

If he really gave a shit about either side he'd act differently. But I think he only focuses on those who can influence his ideal world & ignores all who don't have enough power to influence it. He gives them a small change too escape, but he also damn well knows those investigators are bound to fight, killing as many ghouls as they can, until their last breath!

So there's also a show of mercy in killing everything that stands in front of him, be it bad place & time, be it conciously opposing Kaneki.
