Dalaios, I think that if Sasaki regains Kaneki's memories secretly he will be able to do something inside the CCG, maybe free Hinami, Arata, and the ghoul from Shuu's house. Then he'll probably have conflict with the CCG and have to leave.

Your right about Touka talking with him about non-ghoul things, but it seems like she's doing that from the few scenes we've had of them in the manga, my personal interpretation is that Sasaki is a regular at :re. I have wondered if Sasaki invited Touka over for Christmas dinner, she of course couldn't say yes since it would be very dangerous with all the ghoul investigators watching her eat. I think she is not trying to not trigger his memories but rather gently trigger them.

In regards to Hinami, maybe he's secretly planning something to save her, but the Kaneki in his head doesn't think so, so I doubt it. Sasaki just seems to be in denial that she's going to die if he doesn't do something. He's being passively resistant to her death. I think this is why he is being intentionally oblivious to Uta's being a ghoul, he doesn't want anymore of his ghoul friends to be put in Hinami's position. But look how he is lying to himself, in my opinion he needs the lie so that he doesn't have to do his duty as a CCG investigator. If someone's too obviously a ghoul, for instance saying 'I'm a ghoul' with their kugune out, I'm not sure he wouldn't apprehend them.

Sunako30, Shuu may be what Sasaki/Kaneki needs to remember in time to save Hinami, but I think Shuu may end up dead at Sasaki's hands and/or all of Shuu's family.
