Anime, but the Phantom Thieves of Heart

"Charm (Humanoid): The effect and duration increase or decrease based on the difference in willpower between the caster and the target."

This is undoubtedly very special. You should know that the only skills he can use in reality are the "Gio" given by the "Electric Ring" obtained by executing "Pixie", and the Lamer-related skills that can be used by borrowing the exclusive weapon "Kingdom of Sin".

It is even more special in some ways, because the former requires the help of a 'ring', while the latter requires the help of a 'cane'.

It's a pity that the shadow of Ze Yuezhi in the palace denied it flatly, and even complained that "the plot of changing a person's personality through OOXX only appears in a small book."

Although it was a bit subtle for the other party to say this, it did make sense.

But all these changes originated from the opponent's "secret treasure" that Lan Ke seized.

"Could it be that even Ze Yuezhi himself is unaware of his own uniqueness?"

Is this possibility possible?

Lan Ke had no idea. After all, with the other party's death, all of this was like a palace that disappeared into the 'Sea of ​​Consciousness' and no trace of it could be found anymore.

Lan Ke even vaguely suspected that Ze Yuezhi's death might be related to his possible special abilities?

After all, the other party's death was too cruel. Even now, all kinds of strange "revelations" have begun to appear on the Internet, and the impact that will be caused can be imagined.

The Japanese authorities will definitely not let this go easily and will definitely strike hard later.

But the other party was so unscrupulous that they even ambushed gunmen in advance.

This is definitely not an ordinary 'murder case'!

Lan Ke decided to continue with the case, maybe there would be an unexpected surprise.

In addition, Lan Ke’s second concern was the ‘Saber’ he saw yesterday at the ‘Oiran Road’.

According to Ze Yuezhi, this was a target chosen for him by a friend of his, the 'abbot' of a temple. Unfortunately, even the abbot did not know the detailed identity of the woman suspected to be a 'saber'.

All I know is that the other party is a church member in Tokyo who suddenly became a French citizen two days ago, and I transferred to a large church school.

He was not very familiar with the church, and the church school was a traditional local girls' school, so even he couldn't get in.

This is also because most of the women in Yoshiwara are just prostitutes, and she is the only one who is an oiran.

In addition to being more attractive than others, it is also because it is difficult to reach.

After all, even if relying on the 'Golden Bullet Offensive' can solve most problems, there are still people in this world who remain unmoved. These people will require him to make more efforts to get them.

Lan Ke actually felt relieved when he learned that the other party had not succeeded.

He had only heard of 'schooldays' and didn't know the details. Naturally, he didn't know the relationship between Ze Yuezhi, Ito Makoto and others, so he spent a lot of effort to find the other party. However, the exploration of the palace in the past few days gave Lan Ke a very deep understanding of the other party's actions. He didn't want his favorite character to fall into the other party's clutches.

At the same time, strong curiosity also drove Lan Ke to find out. If it was really Saber, or a related person, he could develop him into his "supporter" and perhaps gain some good skills.

In addition to these two things, Lan Ke is concerned about one more thing!

Lan Ke first took a deep breath, then looked around and waved to Jotaro Kujo to signal him to come over.

"Because Kudo suspected that the suspect in the case we were investigating previously would collect certain items from the victim, I tried to look for them..."

That's right!

According to the prior agreement between Lan Ke and Kudo Shinichi, Kudo Shinichi would go to get information, while Lan Ke would be responsible for finding clues.

Of course, Kudo Shinichi didn't expect Lan Ke to really find anything, so after Lan Ke learned this information from Ze Yuezhi's "shadow", he didn't think much about it. After all, in his opinion, the other party would definitely tell everything he had done after "changing his heart".

But unexpectedly, the other party died, and died under circumstances that were beyond everyone's expectations.

Now that Jotaro Kujo seemed to have doubts about himself, Lan Ke simply told him this information.

When Jotaro Kujo heard that Lan Ke had actually found "physical evidence", he was stunned.

It was obvious that he was just worried about Lan Ke's safety and hoped that Lan Ke would be more careful in everything he did in the future. He didn't expect that he could actually get such important information out of him.

For a moment he didn't even know whether to be happy or nervous.

After all, it was obvious that this incident was no small matter. The exposure alone involved a congressman and the president of a large company. And judging by their subsequent reactions, there must have been 'victims' or their families at the scene. Add to that what Lan Ke had said before...

Once the matter is exposed, Lan Ke, the person who provided the clue, will inevitably encounter countless troubles, and even the other party's previous actions may be dug up.

Once becoming a public figure, ordinary people's favorite thing to do is to use a magnifying glass to constantly look for things that they are curious about, whether good or bad.

Although he trusts Lan Ke enough and supports everything he does.

But the question is what will ordinary people who don’t know the reason say?

Rumors can melt gold, who knows what the final word will be?

Looking at Jotaro Kujo who was lost in thought, Lan Ke couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"It's okay, it's okay. If my cover had been exposed right after my debut, my career as a phantom thief would have been pretty much over..."

But just in case, Lan Ke still tried hard to act as if he was humbly admitting his mistake.

Just when the two were in a stalemate, the crowd suddenly started to commotion, and then a man in a khaki windbreaker walked in with a group of people.

With the appearance of Inspector Megure, Takagi Wataru, who had been at a loss from the beginning, suddenly lit up his eyes.

"Inspector Megure!!"

Looking at his subordinates who were excited, Megure Jusan helplessly pressed down the brim of his hat.

Although he knew that this case was too special, and that he had initially only asked the other party to monitor the target, it turned into a vicious shooting case. Given the other party's identity and ability, it was basically impossible for him to snatch the command of the case from the "Second Investigation Section".

But he was still quite unhappy.

"They're all newcomers, but why is there such a huge gap?"

However, teaching new people a lesson also depends on the situation. Now that the "Search Section One" is a collective, we cannot let the people from the "Section Two" laugh at us.

So he just nodded and asked the other party to report the situation to him.

At the same time, as the police officers from the Investigation Division came in one after another, everyone began to perform their duties.

Although the Second Investigation Division also has staff members who specialize in collecting evidence, they are mainly responsible for collecting things like fingerprints. Things like bloodstain identification are more professional in the First Division.

However, at the same time, one of the police officers who filed in stood out.

The high-raised bull...the nose of the plane instantly became the focus of everyone.

He simply ignored everyone's strange looks and looked at everyone in the hall with an eagle-like gaze.

It was obvious that all the guests who had fled in all directions were gathered in the hall because of Kudo Shinichi's reminder.

Of course, because Ze Yuezhi's body was so horrifying, the police officers had temporarily blocked it with various things.

But even so, except for Kudo Shinichi, a "civilian" who had infiltrated the police team by unknown means, the surrounding area was basically cleared out except for the police. After all, the scene was really... hard to describe.

The unlucky guy who was splashed all over is still receiving psychological counseling.

However, the man with the strange hairstyle was suddenly stunned when he scanned the hall because he found an unexpected person.

"Mr. Kujo?"

Looking at the young police officer walking towards him, Jotaro Kujo was stunned for a moment, then reacted.

"Josuke? You're here too? By the way, you should have finished your 'training' and are now training in the 'Investigation Section'?"

That’s right, the person coming is Josuke Higashikata.

Compared to his student days, he looks more mature now.

Of course, one thing that hasn't changed is each other's iconic hairstyle.

Just when Lan Ke unexpectedly discovered that "Jousuke Higashikata" had appeared somewhere other than "Morioh Town", Jotaro Kujo on the other side fell into deep thought.

Maybe there's an easier solution...

Chapter 67: 'Ghosts'

Josuke Higashikata came to say hello to Jotaro Kujo simply out of courtesy. After all, the relationship between the two sides was very good, and Jotaro Kujo also gave him a lot of help in "that case" that year.

However, when Jotaro Kujo whispered something to him, Josuke Higashikata showed a somewhat surprised expression.

"So the person who partnered with that rude brat is you, Narukami-kun~"

Looking at Josuke Higashikata who called him by his name, Lan Ke was obviously a little confused. Josuke Higashikata just smiled slightly and didn't explain too much. Instead, he waved to Lan Ke and signaled him to follow him.

Although Josuke Higashikata was introduced by Jotaro Kujo, and Lan Ke had the impression that he was trustworthy... as long as he didn't touch his "breaking point", he still instinctively glanced at Jotaro Kujo who had a serious expression.

Lan Ke couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he found that Jotaro had a stern face but didn't say much.

⒈0一2㈡捌ろ○㈨8

Looking at Lan Ke's cautious expression, Josuke Higashikata patted Lan Ke's shoulder with some sigh, as if recalling his first meeting with Jotaro Kujo.

At that time, the other party also advised him not to get involved in the "serial murder case", but for the sake of the small town that he and his grandfather loved, he resolutely started the investigation with his companions.

During this period, he was often subjected to Jotaro Kujo's "death stare", so naturally he could empathize with Lan Ke the most at this moment.

Under Lan Ke's somewhat subtle gaze, Higashikata Josuke brought him to Megure Jusan.

"Excuse me, Inspector Megure."

Following Josuke Higashikata's call, Megure Juzo, who was currently communicating with someone with his head down, turned his head and looked behind him.

"Brother Dongfang? What's wrong? Have you found any clues?"

Although he had heard the name "Inspector Megure" from Kudo Shinichi more than once, this was the first time that Lan Ke had actually seen Megure Jusan in this world.

He was wearing a slightly faded khaki trench coat, which looked like it had been worn for many years, but it was well maintained. Although he looked a little fat, he did not squint his eyes, and with his meticulously groomed beard, he looked quite capable.

The other party's words "Brother Dongfang" made Lan Ke feel much closer to him.

The images in the two-dimensional world seem to gradually overlap with the images in reality.

Seeing this, Higashikata Josuke didn't waste any words and went straight to Megure Jusan's ear to explain softly.

The old chair, the wine, the old

Including Lan Ke's special identity, as well as the 'clues' discovered by Lan Ke.

It was at this time that Lan Ke discovered that the person who had communicated with Megure Jusan before was actually Kudo Shinichi.

In fact, it was not just Lan Ke. Kudo Shinichi was also stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly reacted.

Yes!

I was so busy solving the case just now, how could I have forgotten about Lan Ke?

However, when he saw Lan Ke appearing with the "police officer with a strange hairstyle", he suddenly thought of a possibility.

"Narakami, have you found any clues?"

Although according to the division of labor, one person is responsible for asking questions and delaying time, and the other is responsible for investigating.

But in fact, Kudo Shinichi also knows that the probability of finding clues is not high, but it seems that maybe Lan Ke can bring him some "surprises"?

"I've fulfilled my mission, but I just heard from Mr. Jotaro that Ze Yuezhi was shot dead?"

When mentioning this matter, Kudo Shinichi showed a helpless expression.

It is obvious that the suspect suddenly died in the middle of the investigation, which is just as frustrating as Cunzhi.

"That's about right... Let's not talk about that anymore. What about you, Narukami? Did you find anything?"

"Narukami! Let's go check it out... huh?"

Just as Lan Ke was about to say something, he heard a voice calling Josuke Higashikata from behind. However, when he saw Kudo Shinichi, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and then he showed his dissatisfaction very blatantly.

In response to this, Kudo Shinichi began to avoid the gaze, which was rare.

It seems that the first encounter between the two parties was not friendly.

Fortunately, although Josuke Higashikata was very upset with the kid who said his hairstyle was "weird", he did not forget his job, and even did not stop Kudo Shinichi when he caught up with him.

However, perhaps in order to help Lan Ke keep the secret, apart from Josuke Higashikata, only another police officer who looked easy to bully followed him. It seemed that if it weren't for the fact that more than two people were required to collect evidence, Josuke Higashikata might have come alone.

As for Lan Ke, he didn't talk to the other person rashly because he was not sure whether the other person was a character in the original novel.

Until the four of them arrived at Ze Yuezhi's office on the top floor.

That’s right, it was exactly where Lan Ke had posted the “notice letter” before.

Because it was an office, the lights were always on and not turned off, so everyone could see the entire office at a glance.

Different from the general impression of luxury in big companies, Ze Yuezhi's office tends to be minimalist.

In the not-so-small office, there is an office desk placed directly in the middle of the room. Apart from that, there are some green plants for decoration. There are no decorative bookshelves, no strange ornaments, and even no sofa for reception.

The reason for this situation is that this office is not actually used much. If you want to entertain guests, you go directly to the reception room. This is purely a place for the other party to "stamp".
