Anime, but the Phantom Thieves of Heart

And when she played the guitar again, she felt that time had begun to move again.

Following the drum beats of Shirou Emiya and the passionate bass of Lanko, Lucy also spoke.

"Life Will Change, I hope you like it~"

Lucy was just playing, but Lan Ke's masked smile grew even brighter as he clutched the bass.

As his 'teammates' continued to increase, he gradually regained the feeling he once had when playing games.

No longer alone, but with the feeling of working together for the same goal with companions!

However, when I was attacking the palace before, I still felt that something was missing.

Last night, when Lucy mentioned her wish to hold a 'concert', Lan Ke finally realized that what was missing was the background music!!

As the 'preview letter' is sent out, the game's BGM will also change and become more exciting.

It's just like the "Hero's Proof" that sounds when the battle with the BOSS in MH is about to end, which makes your blood boil!

And this song 'Life Will Change' is undoubtedly Lan Ke's favorite song among P5!

At the beginning of the prelude, everyone simply felt that "it seemed quite nice and exciting", but as Lucy sang, the atmosphere became more and more heated, just like a real concert.

Ordinary people may not care about the lyrics, but many people's expressions become extremely serious after hearing the lyrics.

'I"m Not A Phantom, I"m In Your Face And, I"m Here ToSee It Through'

'I really exist, I'm very close to you, and I know you like the back of my hand' This is more of a declaration of my existence than a lyric.

And Nakamori Ginzo couldn't help but urge his subordinates beside him.

"Have any of you heard this song?"

"Sorry, Inspector, we haven't heard of that..."

Compared to ordinary police officers, Arasaka Yorinobu pushed his glasses and directly interrupted the conversation between the two.

"Don't even think about it. There's no record of this song online. It should be the music created by 'The Phantom Thieves of Hearts', or rather, 'Katana Band (tentative name)' themselves."

"You created it yourself? And it sounds pretty good... No, why are these phantom thieves so much more unprofessional than the last?"

Thinking of his 'arch-enemy' who always liked to steal gems and perform magic shows at the same time, Nakamori Ginzo couldn't help but complain.

As a member of the "Phantom Thief's Family", Utsumi Toshio actually wanted to say that his wife, elder sister-in-law and younger sister-in-law were relatively reliable. However, considering the skyrocketing sales of yoga clothes and tights during that period, he didn't know how to complain for a while.

On the contrary, underneath Arasaka Yorinobu's seemingly calm expression, emotions were constantly surging.

'Are you fully aware of all this?'

He thought of the information he had gathered after learning about the 'Phantom Thieves of Hearts' and his eyes flickered unconsciously.

Does the other party really know?

Probably. After all, those who were previously "changed" did confess all their crimes.

So the other party also knows about the crimes committed by his father, no, should I say, the crimes committed by the entire "Arasaka"?

Unlike his two older brothers who were overshadowed by their father, as the youngest son of Saburo Arasaka who was nearly 60 years old, he has a certain degree of autonomy within Arasaka and is regarded by others as the "Arasaka heir."

Initially, he admired his father's "business myth" and was determined to make him his target.

But as he grew older and saw the countless darkness beneath the bright and beautiful appearance of Arasaka, he became silent.

Until that man appeared!

The pursuit of 'Johnny Silverhand' was done by 'Adam Hammer', but after he was killed, a special storage chip allowed him to exist in another form in this world. During the process of experimenting on the other party, he was also affected by the other party.

But when he really tried to change, he found that his so-called "autonomy" was actually just an illusion created by his father.

His 'autonomy' is just a bigger cage.

He didn't know whether he had given up or just didn't think too much about it from the beginning.

But what he knew was that from that day on, he became more 'mature'.

Because he has realized that he can do nothing while his father is still alive.

Until today——

Looking at the girl playing the guitar freely on the big screen, he knew that she must be the girl saved by 'Johnny Silverhand' that year.

Johnny Silverhand is dead, but the girl who inherited his will appears before him again.

With the flame of revenge, he once again challenged the giant named "Arasaka".

But, can the other party succeed?

He didn't know it, but a rebellious thought unconsciously reappeared in his mind...

Chapter 65 The first person to leave.

Lan Ke's favorite song "Life Will Change" was still playing, and Kudo Shinichi, who had been ready for action, even locked onto the building where the "Phantom Thieves of Hearts" was located earlier than ordinary police officers and ran all the way up.

“Hurry! Hurry! Faster!!”

In the elevator, Kudo Shinichi couldn't help but mutter to himself as he watched the number of floors keep increasing. The moment the elevator door opened, he rushed out.

"Da da da~"

Accompanied by the sound of dense footsteps, Kudo Shinichi rushed up the stairs leading to the roof.

"Click~"

I twisted it hard but found no response. It was obvious that the door lock was locked.

But he seemed to have expected it and took out a piece of wire from his pocket.

Then he began to pry the lock with extremely skillful movements.

It was at this time that the first song 'Life Will Change' finally ended. Lucy, with nothing in her hands, stepped on the railing on the roof with one foot.

"Once again, welcome everyone to our concert! I hope you like this song 'Life Will Change'! After all, this song was written and composed entirely by Leader..."

At this point, the camera even turned and locked onto Lan Ke who was holding the bass in one hand.

Lan Ke also responded very appropriately by raising his left hand and waving to the fans who were cheering or not.

"Alright! The next song, 'Last Surprise', is also written and composed by 'Leader'. I hope you all like it!!"

At this time, Lucy, Lan Ke and Shirou Emiya seemed to have forgotten the purpose of tonight and began to play the second song like a real band.

If initially it was just fans and passersby watching, and they had missed the beginning of the first song when 'Tokyo TV' came, then by the time the second song started it had already been heard by more people.

Even as Lucy used the 'chip' to broadcast the recording to the 'Phantom Thieves of Hearts Support Website', some fans spontaneously spread it on the Internet.

The mainstream media reported on it, the police turned a blind eye, and a group of politicians fanned the flames.

Of course, there are also the idle crowd who just want to watch the show.

The heat that had been suppressed for nearly a month suddenly erupted like lava breaking through the crater of a volcano.

At the same time, the police who came to support finally arrived at the top of the building.

However, compared to the fully armed "Investigation Section 2", these ordinary police officers, armed with "Gun of Kindness" and wearing ordinary police uniforms, carefully moved forward.

After all, their goal is not to capture the 'Phantom Thieves of Hearts', but to stop their performance and force them to come to the 'Arasaka Building'.

However, when the cautious police officers arrived at the top floor, what they saw was not a "vicious thief", but a young man in casual clothes squatting in front of the door and trying to pick the lock.

What these ordinary patrolmen do most on a daily basis is to catch thieves, so they are quite familiar with this aspect.

Looking at Kudo Shinichi's skillful movements, an idea popped up in everyone's mind involuntarily - this level of skill is far beyond that of an ordinary thief, and a heavy punch must be used!

"Police! Stop it!!"

What they didn't expect was that Kudo Shinichi, who was picking the lock, not only ignored their warnings, but even took out a mobile phone from his pocket and handed it behind him with one hand.

"I've already said hello to Inspector Megure, so I'm considered a police officer."

The policeman who grabbed the phone was completely bewildered. He didn't know 'Megure Jusan' at all. After all, the Investigation Section 1 was not responsible for any small cases. How could an ordinary patrolman possibly know him?

However, when he heard the name "Inspector", the other party still picked up the phone to prevent any accidents.

What they didn't know was that Megure Juzo on the other end of the phone was also feeling helpless. In fact, he had just received a call from Kudo Shinichi not long ago.

He was quite helpless about this Kudo... little brother's behavior of always running around the crime scene, but he trusted Kudo Shinichi very much and simply acted as a guarantor for him.

Suddenly, there was a "click" sound, and Kudo Shinichi's eyes lit up.

The lock is open?!

He couldn't wait to try to push the door open, but what he didn't expect was that the door seemed to be motionless?

Is this blocked?

Kudo Shinichi's expression suddenly became a little ugly. After all, even if he was good at various "techniques", he couldn't break the door by force. After all, even if he knew about blasting, he still needed C4, right?

But at this moment, the second song also came to a temporary end.

Because of the live broadcast of TV Tokyo, more and more people came to the scene, and Lucy, who was standing by the guardrail, directly warned.

"Please follow the instructions of the police officers and stay safe."

There is nothing wrong with this sentence. In fact, singers often remind fans like this during concerts because the fans are too excited.

But when these words were spoken by a "phantom thief", the style of the painting suddenly became weird.

The police officers who were responsible for maintaining order at the scene had extremely strange expressions, as if they were actually working overtime at the "concert venue".

Kudo Shinichi's expression behind the iron gate also became extremely strange.

But at this moment, the live helicopter of "Tokyo TV" filmed Lan Ke, who was originally holding the bass, slowly coming to the empty side of the building with the instrument on his back.

"Attendees! We can see that the leader of the 'Phantom Thieves of Hearts' seems to have stopped playing his instrument and walked over to the other side of the guardrail. Is he preparing for a new performance?"

Lan Ke noticed the helicopter and even waved at it very gentlemanly as a goodbye, then opened his arms and suddenly raised his head behind him.

Lan Ke disappeared from the camera with a very standard "leap of faith" posture.

The female reporter in charge of the broadcast couldn't help but instinctively let out a cry of surprise, and at the same time began to urge the helicopter to change direction quickly.

Unfortunately, when they flew over, Lan Ke had already disappeared without a trace.

It was obvious that Lan Ke activated the "extra-dimensional navigation" and entered the "cognitive world" as soon as he left everyone's sight.

“Emilia!!”

Lan Ke, who was in free fall, decisively summoned Emilia, and the other party skillfully hugged Lan Ke's waist. After the two of them dropped for a distance, Emilia finally controlled her body. At the same time, she couldn't help but complain to Lan Ke in a low voice.

"Mr. Narukami, please don't do such dangerous things again~!"

Although Emilia tried hard to make herself look more imposing, it was a pity that her soft appearance and gentle voice could not create a sense of oppression.

However, Lan Ke could still feel the other party's concern for him, so he did not argue, but smiled and said thank you.

"Sorry~ Sorry~ It's just that I don't believe that you will catch me, Emilia?"

Faced with Lan Ke's trust, Emilia didn't know what to say for a moment. After all, she really had no way to deal with this kind of rhetoric.

She could only mutter under her breath with a blushing face.

"You can't do that recklessly~"

It's a pity that she has lost her edge and looks even less imposing...

Chapter 66: A flaw that theoretically doesn't exist.

After teasing his lovely "Zhong Mo", Lan Ke quickly turned his attention back to the "work" at hand.

"I'll have to trouble you again, Emilia~"

"Yes~! Please leave it to me! Narukami-san~!"

Looking at the cute girl who perked up again just because of his words, Lan Ke rubbed her head as a reward after landing, then took her back and summoned the Bicorn to rush towards the subway station.

It is obvious that although the building in front of them is the "Arasaka Building", Lan Ke and his friends' target is the "Arasaka Tower" which has not been completed yet... or to be more precise, it is the "Arasaka Tower" which was built not long ago.

Once again relying on Emilia's power to enter that world full of science fiction and despair, Lan Ke clearly felt that the atmosphere of the whole world was not right.

The engineering teams that were supposed to be building and expanding this world at the 'outermost' area have all disappeared, replaced by cordons that seem to be preventing outsiders from entering.

As for the originally chaotic downtown area, it also became completely deserted. There were almost no people around the bar area, which was originally the most lively due to the nightlife. It was as if the originally chaotic "shadow" in this world did not want to face the wrath of the owner here.

They either fled or hid and waited for the storm to pass.
