Anime, but the Phantom Thieves of Heart

"Naraka..."

"Ok?"

"Aren't you interested in the code for that 'dark room'?"

In fact, it was not just Shinichi Kudo. Even Jotaro Kujo, who was sitting in the passenger seat, couldn't help but glance at the rearview mirror, as if he was curious about Lan Ke's reaction.

Lan Ke seemed very calm about this.

"Although my math grades are okay, I'm really not good at decryption..."

This is a lie.

Although Lan Ke was not very interested in decrypting, he was like having a cheat after obtaining the "third eye". For example, the password of the dark room was actually "anniversary", but it was different from what Kudo Shinichi imagined. The day it was commemorated was not their wedding or the birth of their children, but the day when Ze Yuezhi got "love" but also completely lost "love".

On that day he held the treasure he had always dreamed of in his hands, but on that day he also lost the opportunity to touch it.

No one knew about this matter except the two parties involved, so naturally there were no clues.

Even if Kudo Shinichi racked his brains, he probably wouldn't be able to find the answer.

After all, reasoning also requires ***.

In order to prevent Kudo Shinichi from losing his enviable hair at such a young age, Lan Ke simply tried to comfort him.

"Besides, the problem the police face now is 'how to enter the secret room with the least possible damage', not 'being unable to enter the secret room'. Even if they can't open the lock, they should be able to get in by other means, right? Like, breaking through the wall or something? After all, even if President Zeyue renovated the place, he couldn't have filled the entire place with metal plates, right?"

As Lan Ke spoke, Kudo Shinichi opened his mouth, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

After all, he cared more about 'decryption' than entering the 'dark room', but his reason told him that Lan Ke was not wrong.

Solving a case is not a competition. No matter the method, as long as it can solve the problem, that is enough.

It's just that he himself has his own "persistence", so he chose to remain silent.

Instead, Jotaro Kujo nodded silently, as if confirming his thoughts.

Although Lan Ke acted nonchalant, in his opinion, Lan Ke definitely did not care about it. After all, he started investigating this case at the same time as Kudo Shinichi. It was difficult to assess who put in more effort, but what was certain was that both of them put in a lot of effort.

But Lan Ke was more open-minded than Kudo Shinichi.

As long as "justice" is finally served, does it matter who does it?

Thinking of Lan Ke's reckless behavior when he first saw his detailed information, Jotaro Kujo felt a little relieved for some reason, as if he saw the sapling he had carefully nurtured growing healthily.

What he didn't know was that Lan Ke, or more accurately, the 'Phantom Thief of Heart', had no intention of giving up.

Lan Ke's initial target for "changing his heart" was Ze Yuezhi, especially after seeing the densely packed wax figures in the other party's "palace". He was horrified and at the same time, he became more determined to "change his heart".

Even after he learned the whole story through the "Desire Stone", he had no intention of showing mercy. After all, everything the other party did was just the price to pay for his original choice.

As for the other people involved, Lan Ke originally had no intention of intervening. After all, in his opinion, the others were all victims.

But just now, he gradually realized that something was wrong.

That is the attitude of 'Zeyueba'.

Originally, Lan Ke thought that with the death of 'Ze Yuezhi', the other party should help the police speed up the investigation, but the other party chose to remain silent.

Did you fall in love with Ze Yuezhi over time?

Or are you reluctant to give up the power in your hands?

Or is it simply for the sake of his descendants?

Lan Ke didn't know, but he realized that at least the other party was no longer a simple "victim".

This is why Lan Ke kept looking at the other person's back when the other person left.

Sure enough, while waiting for the bus, Lan Ke took out the "Different Dimension Navigation" and entered the name "Ze Yueba".

As expected, 'Different Dimension Navigation' gave feedback.

"Target locked, yes/no to start navigation?"

It was obvious that the other party's desires had not yet expanded enough to be compared with Ze Yuezhi, and naturally he did not have his own "palace", but there was no doubt that he had begun to become distorted.

Obviously, there would not only be a new target, but also the reputation of the 'Phantom Thieves of Hearts' would be enhanced. Not to mention that these 'elite monsters' could drop some useful items or equipment. Obviously, these were all good things for him, but he couldn't be happy at all.

It was as if his biggest wish before was not how many surgeries he could perform every day, but that he could do nothing.

After all, his doing nothing meant that no one needed medical attention.

His mentality was similar at this time, so his mood was so complicated.

Fortunately, he soon stopped having wild thoughts. The car first stopped at Kudo Shin's house. After watching them go home, Jotaro Kujo asked the driver to take him and Lan Ke back.

The driver from Joestar Real Estate Company was naturally obedient.

The two didn't say much. Jotaro Kujo gestured to Lan Ke to take a shower first and asked Lan Ke to have a good rest, after all, he had classes tomorrow.

Lan Ke naturally obeyed. After all, he had been busy enough today and really deserved a good rest.

There are still many things to do tomorrow, whether it is dealing with the matter of 'Zeyue Ba' or the matter of 'Bujima Saeko'.

That’s right, the ‘other-dimensional navigation’ is not only targeting Ze Yue Ba, but also Busujima Saeko.

Lan Ke was really relieved when he confirmed that the other party did not have a palace. After all, this at least showed that the other party's desires had not been distorted to exceed the "threshold". However, as a surgeon, Lan Ke always adhered to the concept of "the sooner the lesion is removed, the better". He decided to deal with it together before going to school tomorrow morning.

at the moment?

Of course, I would go and have a good chat with my assistant.

Whether it was the 'secret treasure' belonging to Ze Yuezhi, or the special abilities he had acquired, or the matter of the 'Desire Stone'...

He was already exhausted and soon fell into a deep sleep while lying on the bed.

It’s a pity that there are not many people with such a good attitude as Lan Ke.

Whether it is Kudo Shinichi who is "working late into the night" at home, or Amuro Toru who seems calm but is actually madly calling his subordinates, or Gin who rushes to continue working after finishing his work.

"According to Pisco's description, the man seemed to have gone insane. To prevent him from revealing any information related to the 'Organization', I have already shot him dead as planned."

"Yes, I see."

Vodka, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked a little confused as he saw his elder brother reporting to the boss.

It’s not that they have any doubts about killing Ze Yuezhi. After all, the job of their "execution team" is to complete whatever tasks are assigned. As for why they want to kill the other party?

This is not something you need to know.

What puzzled him was the uniqueness of Ze Yuezhi.

In his opinion, Ze Yuezhi's connection with the "organization" was not close. Although he had met "Vermouth", he did not know much about the "organization". He was more of an "experimental animal", at most an "experimental animal" of relatively high status.

Theoretically, this kind of work should not require special reporting to the boss, but his eldest brother has been calling for some time. If the other party has something special that he doesn't know about, then it shouldn't be just him and his eldest brother who are sent to solve it. Other "code members" should also be involved.

Ze Yuezhi gave him such a subtle feeling, as if no matter which standard was used, there was something wrong.

As the top of the execution team, Gin naturally noticed the strange look from his younger brother, but after he hung up the phone, he had no intention of explaining.

It’s not that I don’t trust him or have any opinions about him, but it’s for his own good.

After all, sometimes the more you know, the more trouble you will have. The "experiment" that "Ze Yuezhi" is involved in is one of the most important goals of the "organization". Even the "experiment" itself is disguised, and many participants do not know what their specific goals are.

However, when he thought of the organization's goals, a hint of fanaticism could not help but appear in his seemingly calm eyes.

The Porsche 356A was driving on the quiet streets, but the city was destined to stay awake tonight...

Chapter 69 Favorability, UP!

"Tina Amon~!!"

Lan Ke, who had just "woke up" and appeared on the deck, immediately locked onto his assistant sitting on the figurehead. Then he pounced on him in an extremely exaggerated manner, as if he was going to throw him directly into his arms.

But the other party seemed to have a pair of eyes behind him and turned over and hid aside very nimbly the moment Lan Ke pounced on him.

Tina, with her graceful movements, even had the time to complain.

"Even if you call me that, I can't possibly take out the future item from my pocket and give it to you~"

Tina squatted on the deck and wagged her tail gracefully.

Lan Ke didn't care much about this. After all, he was just trying to make a joke. However, when he saw the "Sea of ​​Consciousness" along the figurehead, his face changed instantly.

The 'Sea of ​​Consciousness' was as turbulent as ever, but this was not Lan Ke's first time on the 'Velvet', so he had long been accustomed to it.

But when he looked at the 'Sea of ​​Consciousness' that he should have been used to seeing, his first reaction was the city in the 'Palace' that was swallowed by the sea.

What would he do if he didn't prepare a flying personality mask in advance?

Is it really possible to escape to the 'Gate' before the 'Sea of ​​Consciousness' swallows up the entire palace?

What will happen to me after being swallowed by the 'Sea of ​​Consciousness'?

Lan Ke, who obviously did not have a fear of the deep sea, felt as if he had completely forgotten how to breathe.

But at this moment——————

"Don't worry, Captain! Even if you accidentally fall into the water, I will rescue you."

Accompanied by a gentle voice, Lan Ke felt his shoulders sink.

Without even looking back, Lan Ke guessed who the voice belonged to.

The other person's voice seemed to have some magical power, which made Lan Ke's heavy breathing return to normal.

"Sorry for making you worry."

Before Lan Ke finished speaking, he felt a sense of relief on his shoulders. He turned around and saw that it was his assistant who was already walking towards the wheelhouse in the distance.

"Who's worried about you? I'm just doing my job. Captain, judging by your expression just now, I think you have a lot to ask me. Let's go to the wheelhouse first."

Although the other party seemed to be talking to himself, Lan Ke felt warm in his heart.

He originally had no special preference for small animals, but suddenly he felt that cats seemed cuter than he had imagined?

Thinking of this, Lan Ke hurriedly chased after him, but after taking only two steps, he unconsciously slowed down his pace.

Because he noticed that although his assistant still looked extremely elegant in his words and actions, his steps seemed to be more hurried than usual, as if he was trying to hide something.

As expected, when he returned to the 'wheelhouse' two steps late, the other party had regained his usual elegance and sat at the table, but for some reason there was an extra cup of steaming tea on the table.

As if she saw Lan Ke's confusion, Tina very gracefully gestured for Lan Ke to sit down before she slowly began to explain.

"This is a gift those kids prepared for you."

As she spoke, Tina seemed to glance at the door leading to the captain's room unintentionally. It was not until then that Lan Ke noticed that there seemed to be a crack in the door, and two little heads appeared in the crack.

As if noticing Lan Ke's gaze, the other party quickly ran back, but Lan Ke still noticed the wings and vines.

He probably guessed who it was.

After all, with that height and size, plus the characteristics, only Pixie and Mandala can match it.

"Thank them for me."

It’s not that Lan Ke is unwilling to thank them in person, but looking at the looks of the two, even if he goes over now, he’ll probably have to play hide-and-seek, so he decided to ask his assistant to do it.

Tina didn't care much about this.

"I will, but I think it's all because of you that this is happening..."

It sounds like nonsense, but it is not.

'Personas', or more accurately, 'mid-demons', are not simply data in the game. Even if they are captured, if they do not get along well with each other, even if they will execute orders because of the 'contract', the extent to which they can do so is questionable.

Giving gifts or something like that is even less likely.

On the other hand, although Lan Ke has a strange collecting habit, he will communicate well with any "Second Demons" he captures, and even the "Two-horned Beasts" with strange personalities get along well with Lan Ke.

That's why Tina said, "It's because it's Lan Ke."

"It's not as good as you said~"

Faced with the praise from his assistant, Lan Ke felt a little shy.

After all, what he said wasn't an excuse, because in his opinion, he hadn't actually done anything. He just prepared some small gifts for them, or chatted with them when he had free time. Compared to them needing to assist him in battle, or actively entering the 'Sea of ​​Consciousness' for the purpose of 'synthesis'...
