I dont think there is any doubt that this was nothing but a flashback. You dont simply hallucinate something "wrong". This scene is far too detailed to be like the hallucinations he had about Yamori and Rize. They were completely different. And even those were based on something that happened in his past. It all makes sense, so I dont see why you try so hard to make this scene look invalid.

You guys arent looking at this chapter objectively. You are searching for any possible reason that favors Arima. I dont say that its impossible that Arima developed feelings for Kaneki over time. But what we saw in this chapter did happen and it shows Arima´s way of thinking. We will see if that changed or not in the future.

You are also ignoring the possibility of Arima following his orders, but having secret intentions about whicht the CCG doesnt know. That would indeed make sense and would make him even more of an interesting character. It would be something Ishida would totally do. Arima and Sasaki are often seen together. As you already said he treats Sasaki differently than others. If Sasaki is indeed nothing but a "new weapon" for him like he said two times, then he could use Sasaki to satisfy his sadistic desires and to train a pet that is going to follow him whatever he does.

There are enough reasons to be suspicious of Arima. If you ask me it would be far more unlikely that Arima is just another guy who just follows his orders and got to like Sasaki because he is such a nice guy.
