Tokyo Trickster

He had finished eating and was no longer hungry. When he heard the boss of the steamed bun shop boasting, his first reaction was, "Although your steamed buns are good, I think they are not as good as the cream cakes at home."

Stop! Amamiya Ren, you can't think about these dirty things anymore! Lavenda is still a child!

But there seemed to be another voice whispering in his heart like a demon. Amamiya Ren, think about it again. Lavenda may have been a child, but she grew up with your help the day before yesterday.

She is no longer a child. So, even if...

Ah!!! The thief's eyes widened with anger, and he leaned against the brick wall at the corner of the alley and attacked himself painfully. As expected, I am really a pitiful and pathetic lolita control.

Thinking of this reality, he felt desperate and helpless. Since he couldn't change it, he had to accept his fate.

Amamiya Ren took a deep breath and walked towards the path in front of the busy campus. Yes, as you can see, as a loyal player of "Azur Lane", I just like small ones.

What's wrong with being small?!

Small means exquisiteness and delicacy. It can easily satisfy the worst desire for domination of human beings, and also awaken the most noble spirit of adventure of human beings.

Explore the narrow, impenetrable cave entrance!

Have a tough time in the caves!

Go explore the mysterious places where no one cares!

The famous Chinese poem "Peach Blossom Spring" once wrote: At first it was very narrow, but only then could people pass through. After walking a few dozen steps, it suddenly became clear...

After crossing every narrow and dangerous place, there is a beautiful and vast country waiting to reward the explorer who has gone through all the dangers!

Yes, that's right, small is beautiful. Amamiya Ren was a little out of his mind, and he shouted in his heart, "Small! Small! Small!"

"Xingjiang, did you try the signature cream cake from that store yesterday? It's really delicious! Sweet but not greasy!" The girls' conversation could be heard from the front.

Cream cake?! Hearing the key words, Amamiya Ren was horrified. Mr. Kurahashi, please forgive my sensitivity and complacency. I am just a young man who has just gotten rid of his virginity. I have absolutely no intention of provoking the Child Protection Act. Please forgive me!

(Hot knowledge: Kurahashi Tsuyoshi. Japanese early childhood educator. Graduated from the Department of Philosophy of Tokyo Imperial University. Served as a lecturer, professor and principal of the affiliated kindergarten of Tokyo Women's Higher Normal School, and editor-in-chief of "Women and Children" magazine.)

He silently completed his complex and active inner activities, stepped into the school gate, and once again turned into the king who ruled over all the people.

When King Amemiya walked into the teaching building, everyone who saw him was terrified and retreated in panic.

General Sakamoto, who was rescued by the king himself, had recovered well from his knee and was able to run and jump. He scratched his yellow hair and walked up to greet Amamiya Ren.

"Good morning, Amamiya." Ryuji Sakamoto glanced at the classmates who had gathered around him. He suppressed his timidity and showed a hearty and enthusiastic smile.

"Well, who are you?" His Majesty the King looked confused.

"I'm Ryuji Sakamoto!" The yellow-haired man felt the increasingly strange looks around him, and he felt so embarrassed that his scalp numbed and his face heated up.

"I remember now, the guy from the track and field club whose leg was broken by Kamoshida... Sakamoto Toast?" Amamiya Ren teased him intentionally.

There was laughter all around.

Sure enough, the gangster who had mustered up the courage to talk to him fell into a "red temperature state" that no one had ever seen before.

Ryuji Sakamoto fled in panic.

"Sakamoto...?" Takamaki An, who was standing in the crowd, was also laughing, but she soon became confused as to how this guy dared to talk to Amamiya Ren.

His Majesty the King looked at the back of Sakamoto Ryuji running away in the corridor. He suddenly turned around and glanced at the classmates around him, "Have you laughed enough?"

The crowd of onlookers dispersed instantly, and fled the scene one by one in silence.

Ryuji Sakamoto.

What an interesting guy.

His Majesty the King thought.

He actually thought that I was isolated by the whole school...being treated coldly? Or that he thought I was lonely.

He made such a move on purpose, perhaps with a determination to "follow you to fight against the world". So naive. Is he trying to repay me for helping him?

Amamiya Ren hasn't been this happy in a long time.

Looking at the school flag trembling in the autumn wind outside the window, I felt an inexplicable expectation in my heart.

Maybe this guy can become my friend.

Dry weather: Remarks on the release (seeking first order)

Available May 6st.

As you can see, this is a super unpopular fan fiction that is a combination of Persona 5 (50%) + Monogatari (30%) + a collection of various niche things (20%).

This is also the first time I write a book out of love.

First of all, I want to apologize. Before publishing the book, I was influenced by the "Monogatari Series" and many prose, and the overall style I decided on was stream-of-consciousness. In addition, the relatively redundant and detailed descriptions in the first few chapters made it a little difficult to read. I'm sorry that I didn't leave a good first impression on everyone. I have improved on this point.

Then... this book does not focus on CP or stocks. All the important characters are "Amamiya Ren fans" or "twisted Amamiya Ren fans". All the characters that should be in the original Phantom Thieves will appear. The character "Akechi Goro", who is strange in many ways, will also be dealt with reasonably.

The reading performance of this book is very poor, and I guess the subscription tomorrow will be very bad, but fortunately, this is what I expected before choosing this subject. After all, P5 should be this popular in Hedgehog Cat. The current data is beyond my expectation. Thank you very much for your support and love.

Stable updates with guaranteed quality and quantity are possible because my outline is very complete (as shown below)

I love the Persona series and the various elements stitched together in this book, which I have mentioned in the reading instructions. So I will try my best to present a story that I expect and like to everyone.

Unless I fall into a miserable situation like "I am about to starve to death, and the royalties can't even make a basic living" (I am forced to go out and take some small business orders to make a living), the updates of this book will be very stable.

Well, there should be ten or even nine chapters when the book goes on sale tomorrow.

I beg you to subscribe more. (For the first time, I feel like writing a book will make me starve to death. #scratching my head awkwardly# After all, I have to support my family)

In addition, the unlimited bounty will end at noon on June 6th, so just give whatever you want... I already owe more than sixty chapters o(ini)o

Thank you all for your support and encouragement. If you have any comments or criticisms, you can find me in the book club and I will answer and accept them humbly... After all, posting them directly in the forum and book reviews will affect the reading experience of new readers, orz.

Reader Group Q: **

last of the last.

I am very grateful to every reader who has read this far. Your support gives me the motivation to write a book.

Grateful.

Dry weather: 047. Poor buddy

"Sato, have you bought the latest mobile version of PS7?"

"Are you talking about the machine whose hardware configuration can theoretically run Cyberpunk 120 at full quality at 2077 frames?!" Sato stood in his seat and talked a lot, from the publicly announced configuration table to the new games that major manufacturers have announced will be released next year.

I don’t know what kind of black technology Sony has used, but it has not only miniaturized its own game console, but also maintained a 2-hour battery life while having ultra-high performance.

It’s like a dream, like a dream.

Of course, what is even more terrifying is that Nintendo next door actually launched a new "advanced version" of their Switch, which is about to become a pleasure for old men. The main feature is high-end configuration, and the price is quite affordable. Then, it also optimized the image quality of major popular games, filled in scenes and details, and even added ray tracing to "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild", which almost no one will turn on.

But after a long speech, they were finally pulled back to their wandering bodies by the cruel reality -

They have no money.

The affordable "advanced version" of Switch needs **

The price of the mobile version of PS7, which is called a "portable console", has reached an astonishing

It may be just right for working people, but it is a bit out of reach for these minors who are still in high school.

right?

In a luxury house somewhere in Tokyo, a man in his twenties was playing games at a computer desk, while his sister, who should have been in junior high school, was sitting on the sofa, clicking on a controller in front of the TV.

"Brother, change your armor." Miss Bai used the charging rifle to replenish her evolution shield to the maximum level, and she threw the red armor to her brother/partner.

"But I'm only 15 points of damage away..."

"Change." Bai's expression suddenly turned cold, and she spoke briefly.

"Yes, sir!" Mr. Kong put on the red armor made by his sister dejectedly.

On the coffee table in the living room, the crystal-clear trophy quietly watched the two players who were enjoying a peaceful life. On the crown-like relief surface, there flowed a galaxy-like magnificent light.

This is the "Star Trophy" you get after you have completed a whole world perfectly. It is an unparalleled "game achievement" and the highest reward for gamers. Perhaps it once had a remarkable origin, but its current purpose is to continuously promote the rapid development of technology in the field of electronic games in this world.

Amemiya Ren is a part-time worker at Tokyo Shoei Publishing House.

As a best-selling author, he was rich most of the time.

As a result, the whole family has no worries about food and clothing, and can even easily support a secretary and a cat in Tokyo.

But it soon became insufficient. Amamiya Ren propped her face up with her arms, leaned against the wall, and thought about the future.

As a worker in the Velvet Room, it is his duty to deal with various abnormalities caused by twisted desires.

But the entire society is too large and too complex, and perhaps it will take a lifetime to completely solve all the strange and bizarre events.

Through the concept of "Phantom Thieves" proposed by Lavenda and the "Armed Detective Agency" in Yokohama mentioned by Dr. Yosano, Amamiya Ren thought about whether he could create a special organization that would be tolerated by the government and use the major public systems to achieve his goals more efficiently.

This is highly feasible.

The media reports in the past few days have made the public aware of the existence of the "Phantom Thieves of the Minds" for the first time.

What he needs to do next is to continue to expand the influence and popularity of the Phantom Thieves and increase public recognition of them.

When a large enough amount of public opinion comes together, it will naturally push the government to take action and give the Phantom Thieves a strong label of "justice".

Amamiya Ren looked towards the podium, where the biology teacher was talking about the "difference between single-celled organisms and multi-celled organisms."

The students in the classroom gradually got used to Amamiya Ren's presence and no longer paid close attention to his attitude, words and deeds.

According to his plan, he would first have to find a few hidden buildings in various parts of Tokyo as temporary secret bases to handle unusual incidents in the form of "accepting commissions". Then he would gradually expand the size of the Phantom Thieves.

The core members of the exploration of the Palace of the Soul can only be carefully selected "qualified persons".

In addition, there must be a reliable support team to help manipulate public opinion, manage the reputation of the Phantom Thieves, and provide necessary support.

The most important thing in the whole plan is to make money.

Amamiya Ren felt like she was suffocating. It was the first time she felt so short of money.

What stood in the way of his mission as the Contractor of the Velvet Room was not a powerful enemy or disaster, but poverty.

This morning's classes are two biology classes, one math class and one Chinese class.

The lunch break came uneventfully. Lavenda was too tired from cooking the night before to get out of bed, so she didn't prepare a lunch box for him.

Amamiya Ren walked out of the school gate, found a ramen stall with good reputation and ordered a bowl of tonkotsu ramen.

After a hasty lunch, he finally made up his mind, took out his cell phone, and found a famous hacker at the bottom of the address book.

The remark name is [Alice].

Beep, beep...the call was connected.

A soft, childish female voice came from the receiver. "Hello, this is the NEET Detective Agency. Please press '1' to issue a commission, '2' to send Dr-Pepper, and '3' for intelligence transactions."

"I'm Amamiya Ren."

"..." The girl on the phone fell into a brief silence.

It took her a while to speak, "Mr. Amamiya, I just checked and found that the balance in your bank account is not enough to entrust me to steal..."

"I've retired from the business of cheating," the Trickster gritted his teeth. "Please find me someone who's good at programming and building websites. I'm planning to open a detective agency soon."

"Ah, I don't know such a person."

"Ten thousand shake V salary beech selection!

"Oh, I suddenly remembered it, and it seems to be there. Let me look for it..." The other party quickly changed his tone.

"This guy's nickname is 'Alibaba'. He is a top-notch programmer. I bought a lot of hacking tools from him." [Alice] warned, "I will explain your commission to him. Whether it will be successful depends on your words... You'd better tear off your mouth full of lies!"

Her tone suddenly became excited, and then she hung up the phone with two thumps.

Beep, beep, beep... The phone rang again. It was Alice.

"Agency fee!" She said this and immediately hung up the phone, leaving no room for Amamiya Ren to talk.

Amamiya Ren pulled at the collar of her suit jacket.

During the time when he followed Bei Munizhou to learn the art of deception, he came into contact with and even cooperated with these "detective" characters.

That was a time I couldn't bear to look back on.

Dry weather: 048. Beyond Kamoshida

"Um...Amamiya-san," the timid boy walked to Amamiya Ren's desk tremblingly.
