Tokyo Trickster

"You're in the newspaper." Amamiya Ren took out her cell phone and pointed to the latest news. The commentator turned out to be Nao Tomori.

"Ah?!" Araragi Koyomi made the voice of the Dark Sword Demon.

(The description error in Chapter 208 has been fixed: Amamiya Ren traveled back from the second semester of her first year of high school to the second to third semester of her second year of junior high school, which is nearly two years ago, not "three years".)

(AI Sophia kindly reminds you: "O Desire Phantom Thieves - Lavenda" is temporarily finished. A total of three chapters have been uploaded to the group file of the full subscription group. The next chapter: "O Desire Phantom Thieves - Showjin's Hypnotic Domination" is being created in a new folder.)

17-year-old Ace: 215. Two Roses

The camera returns to the morning at Shujin High School. (Connected to the beginning of Chapter 213)

The girls' restroom outside the school.

Kotone Shiomi tied second-year senior Tamura to a chair and used a strong flashlight to flip up her eyelids.

"Hello, Murata-senpai? Are you there? Are you conscious?"

"Uh..." Murata raised his head in a daze.

"Tell me..." Shiomi Kotone took out a small plastic bag full of white pills from her pocket, her smile becoming more sweet and dangerous, "Where did you get this from?"

"I don't know." Murata answered subconsciously.

"You really don't know?" Xijian Qinyin pointed at the corner of her mouth with her index finger, as if she was thinking.

"Yes, I really... Ugh!" Murata's eyes widened and her pupils shrank rapidly. The intense pain almost made her faint again.

Shiomi Kotone retracted her fist and said, "I advise you to tell the truth. This kind of medicine is not something a high school student can get."

"I......"

"We have been investigating you for a long time." Shiomi Kotone smiled, her face and voice gradually blurred in Murata's cognition, "A greedy person who is willing to be used by the gang."

"Next, you should tell me all the information truthfully, Murata-senpai."

There was no light in the restroom, only a strong flashlight providing illumination, and Shiomi Kotone's sighs echoed in it.

******

"Did she confess?" Amamiya Ren was sitting in the classroom playing with her phone. Actually, she was teasing Sophia on the screen to jump around.

"I have confessed everything."

"Have you explained the transaction chain clearly?"

"Well, I didn't expect there would be gang agents in school."

"It must be that guy named Jincheng Junya."

"The notice... I'm going to try something a little more dramatic this time," Amamiya Ren smiled, "The support for the Phantom Thieves on the Internet is pretty good right now."

Around the spring break, with the sponsorship of the Okumura Group, he launched the TV program "Where are the Phantom Thieves?" with the theme of "Searching for the traces of the Phantom Thieves of the Mind." With the "famous beautiful girl reporter" Nao Tomori as the host and the "literary genius" Ren Amamiya as the special guest, the program became an instant hit on the Internet as soon as it was broadcast.

As the events involving the Phantom Thieves were uncovered, the story gained popularity and sparked in-depth discussions among the public.

The voices of opposition and approval were intertwined, and for a time there was a tendency to become the main theme on the Internet.

"Now I remember, someone asked me to go to the gym."

"I guess it's a girl's invitation." Xi Jianqinyin sighed and clenched her fist and gently tapped Amamiya Ren's forehead. The strength that could punch the pole with one fist now seemed light.

"You are truly farsighted."

"I hope you don't go home with lipstick marks all over your face tonight."

"I'll take a shower."

"You know, vampires and Lavenda are both sensitive to smells."

“I washed it twice.”

......

In the gymnasium in Kita-ku, Tokyo, two girls as beautiful as roses were dancing. In the empty venue, the white-haired female coach had a fire of victory in her eyes. "Xia, Sumire! If you keep practicing like this, you will definitely get the top spot in the youth group!"

"Yes, teacher!" The colorful ribbons twirled along with the graceful and exquisite figure, like a flower blooming in the spotlight, with bright petals stretching out and crystal clear dewdrops falling.

In the dim lights, Amamiya Ren stood on the empty stands, admiring the beauty of the early spring flowers blooming.

Sophia, who also has red hair, paced back and forth on the screen of her mobile phone, occasionally scribbling on the game icons of Amamiya Ren with a crayon, or moving a small toy made of pixels around.

Sakura Futaba opened a free-moving channel for Sofia to access the electronic devices of everyone in the Phantom Thieves, but for some reason, she always stayed in Amamiya Ren's phone or computer and refused to leave.

After careful questioning, the answer you get is probably "He is very handsome, I like him", such childish remarks leave everyone speechless.

Let's take a look at how the Phantom Thieves call Amamiya Ren:

[Boss]: Futaba Sakura, Tadashi Takemi.

[Boss]: Ryuji Sakamoto, Koyomi Araragi.

【Lotus】: Kitagawa Vsuke, Shiomi Kotone.

【Master】: Cong Yu, Sophia.

[Trickster]: Lavenda.

[My family]: Shinobu Oshino.

Then, what do the Yoshizawa sisters call Amamiya Ren? (1D=100)――

The sound of dice rolling.

"Amemiya-san."

What a remarkable development. So it turns out that the cute and beautiful twin sisters have a forbidden love for their "older brother"? !

"Wrong!" Amamiya Ren scolded Shinobu Oshino for what she said in her heart, "You really have read too many girls' comics!"

"Hahaha," Shinobu Oshino chuckled as he leaned into his shadow, "It's nice to try new things in human society once in a while."

"I've had enough," Amamiya Ren reached into the shadows and touched her face.

Slurp~ Shinobu Oshino affectionately stuck out her tongue and licked his palm.

Amamiya Ren pulled her hand back expressionlessly.

After finishing their training, Kasumi Yoshizawa and Sumire Yoshizawa ran to Amamiya Ren in their gymnastics uniforms and asked, "Amamiya, how was our performance?"

Ever since that night, when Amamiya Ren, who was passing by, saved the two girls, they hugged each other and cried on the street for a long time, until the anxious father ran through the woods while shouting. (See the second half of Chapter 180 for details)

The rift between the elder sister and the younger sister caused by their differences in talents was melted away silently.

They talked about their love for Amamiya Ren and shared their admiration and love for him without any burden.

Two beautiful roses fell into his hands, and took off their thorny shells, revealing a green and innocent feeling. This is youth. Yoshizawa Kasumi and Yoshizawa Sumire are both very smart and talented, but Amamiya Ren's sense of security and presence is too strong, and his lethality to women is too strong, which easily breaks through their strong psychological defenses.

Amamiya Ren put on warm coats for them and watched them run into the dressing room shyly and expectantly. I began to wonder why this had inexplicably turned into a [date]?

We clearly agreed at the beginning that we were just here to watch them practice.

These two junior high school students are really brave. They dare to directly drag the boys into the locker room. Fortunately, Amamiya Ren has a bottom line.

At this moment in the locker room, the Fangze sisters, who had realized how shameless their actions were, were fighting with each other with red faces.

But no one said anything about giving up "dating".

17-year-old Ace: 216.Net Detective and the Mind Thief

In the small bedroom, the bed is connected to the computer desk. Display screens of various sizes emit fluorescent light in the dim light. A petite and slender girl who looks only about twelve years old is wearing monotonous pajamas and kneeling on the slightly messy sheets, typing on the keyboard on the computer desk.

Her name is Yuko Shionji, and her nickname on the Internet is Alice.

Another powerful network supporter of the Phantom Thieves' logistics team besides Sakura Futaba.

If Sakura Futaba is a programming genius, then Alice is a hacking genius. She has reached the pinnacle in both offense and defense. As long as she can pay the money and provide the corresponding evidence, she can even find out the color of Shido Masayoshi's underwear that day... This statement is a bit exaggerated, but it is still possible to forcibly break into the database of the government building and steal (crossed out)...robber data despite the overwhelming firewalls and pursuit.

Out of a paranoid sense of justice and an obsession with solving the truth of the case, Alice calls herself the "spokesperson for the dead" and is active among groups of people with super powers. She guides their actions by disclosing and selling secret intelligence, and brings a happy ending to one tragedy after another buried in the darkness of public cognition.

With her amazing mind, she has been making such "exploitation" moves.

Until one day, a trickster named Beimunizhou knocked on the door with his new disciple.

"Hello, are you the Shionji family?" The gray-haired middle-aged man greeted politely, "We are here to collect a debt."

Ziyuan Temple Youzi didn't dare to open the door or make a sound.

"Really? Then we'll come in..."

"I'm calling the police!" a girl screamed from behind the door.

Bei Mu Ni Zhou had already opened the security door... This was also one of the jobs of a trickster. Collecting the money that was due.

Amamiya Ren saw the true appearance of the "client" for the first time. He didn't expect that the "Alice" who seemed to be omnipotent on the Internet was actually such a... cute girl in reality.

About 130cm tall, with long legs, a petite figure and beautiful long straight black hair, she looked like an exquisite Japanese doll. She hugged her knees and curled up in a pile of stuffed toys. Her pair of lively blue eyes were like a lake with ripples, watching the three people outside the door warily and panickily, tears welling up in her eyes.

Ms. Woyan Izuko, who was traveling with Alice, took her out of the pile of toys as she screamed in fear. The genius hacker, who was completely stressed, almost fainted... "Ah, sorry, sorry, after all, you are just too cute... When I was a child, I often dreamed of having a doll like you that I could hug to sleep."

Woyan Izu Lake let out a rather nasty laugh.

So, while the girl was crying bitterly, Amamiya Ren sat on her bed and started operating those expensive electronic devices.

Beimunizhou scanned the entire bedroom and determined that the cash stored here might be at most the pocket money of a junior high school student.

"Amamiya, can you find our money?"

"I didn't take your money!" Shionji Yuko was about to retort when she saw Beimunizhou's open right hand, with a sharp dagger in his palm. She was so frightened that she trembled all over and crawled into Woyan Izuko's arms, not daring to move.

"Don't worry, I'm a genius," Amamiya Lian opened the refrigerator and looked at the full bottle of Dr. Pepper. She took out a can and took a swig. She took out another can and threw it to Bei Mu Ni Zhou. "I have studied this knowledge seriously."

(Dr Pepper: A popular carbonated drink in Japan.)

"Don't mess with those software!!!" Alice tried to save her "toolbox".

Amamiya Ren stuffed all the messy icons on the desk into the Recycle Bin, and then started searching for the program page she needed in the Linux background.

"D:ProgramsNetdailyAlice." Yuko Shionji tried to stop Amamiya Ren's violence. She said frustratedly, "Inside that folder is a notepad with the suffix 5655. Enter the server backend from port 1070. All transaction records for this month are in it."

"Thank you." Amamiya Lian made a gesture and put Alice back on the bed. "You clicked the wrong folder. Our record is in the fifth row, seventh column."

"How come you know everything?"

"I know everything." Woyan Izuko yawned, "Just refer to Merlin in FGO and think of me as Clairvoyance EX."

......

Shionji Yuko shook her head and looked at Amamiya Ren angrily, "Do you have to bring a girl with you every time you see me?!"

Miss Alice is being warmly embraced by Sumire Yoshizawa and Kasumi Yoshizawa, who can't resist their love for dolls.

"You don't want them to hold you... do you want me to hold you?"

"Who would let a swindler like you hold me?"

"Anxious." Amamiya Lian touched her head with a smile.

"I'm so anxious!" Alice opened her mouth and wanted to bite his palm. She was obviously a rational and calm girl, but she couldn't keep calm for more than a few seconds in front of Amamiya Ren.

"Brother Amemiya, is this your sister?" Fang Zexia asked him.

"Just treat it as such." Amemiya Ren rubbed Shionji Ariko's soft face.

Alice glared at him and didn't refute him. Ever since the day when the "ghost story experts" sneaked into her home through the Internet cable and robbed her of her only three million Yechanxu, she simply asked this group of ghost story authorities who had considerable influence in the upper echelons of society to protect her and reached an agreement of "mutual benefit and mutual assistance", which was actually a completely unequal treaty in essence.

The four of them played games in front of the big screen until noon, when Alice, starving, ordered them to leave, "Don't bring so many people here next time!"

"Then I'll take these things," Amamiya Ren waved his hand, and two USB flash drives were clamped between his fingers.

"What is this?" Fang Zexia took his arm.

"Game save file," Amamiya Ren lied casually.

All of Kaneshiro Junya's crimes that could be found on the Internet were in it. He played with the USB flash drive in his hand until the sulking Sumire Yoshizawa pulled her away, "Let's go! Didn't we agree to go to the movies together?"

"The action begins." While the two sisters were fighting, he took out his cell phone and gave these orders in the Phantom Thieves' communications room.

Several people who had already been ready on Shibuya Street began their actions.

Kaneshiro Junya's gang likes to use high school or college students as intermediaries to transport illegal drugs to all walks of life, so they pretend to be "ignorant young people" who want to work and make money, and find the location of Kaneshiro Junya's hall.

As for Amamiya Ren, he has more important things to do...

A sallow-faced man was busy in a flower shop.

Takuto Maruki, a researcher who was once at the forefront of cognitive science, has stepped out of his own world and is about to step into the reality of desire.

17-year-old Ace: 217. When I was a kid, I saw this episode and made a lot of mistakes.
