Monday, May 5

Yusuke got up very early. He was a student of [Public Kousei High School] and no matter how big the problems he suffered, he still had to go to school.

"So touching, this delicious breakfast! I swear! This is the most delicious in the world! This appearance! It's simply a work of art, ha! This aroma!"

Kara and Ivan looked at the slightly crazy Yusuke Kitagawa and suddenly wanted to kick him out!

As if he noticed the looks of the two people, he said, "I'm sorry, I lost my composure. I've been living a rather...tight life these past few years, so this is the first time I've had such a delicious meal! Thank you very much!"

When Ivan thought about the miserable life of his poor buddy over the years, he didn't know who his father was, his mother died when he was 3 years old, and he was always sucked away by the master Banmu, plagiarizing his paintings, and living a so-called "poor" life. He was always immersed in art and had no friends.

It can be considered as his redemption.

"Have you joined the group?" Alvin asked.

"Yes! I've been added to the group. Are we going to gather today?" Yusuke swallowed the food in his mouth before speaking.

"Yes, whether we have to work together or not, we need to investigate the location of the secret treasure. You still go to school as usual during the day, and we will meet in Shibuya after school. I will notify you of the specific matters in the group!"

"Okay! No problem! I will be there on time!" You Yusuke agreed directly.

In the encrypted group...

Ivan: [I'm not going to school today. Let's meet at the underground mall in Shibuya after school! I'm going to buy some supplies and equipment!]

Long Si: [I'm curious about what Ivan does? How can he be so rich, with a maid and a luxury car?]

Ivan: [Don't guess. My family sells pancakes and flounder. And Ryuji is in class right now. Why are you replying so quickly?]

Xing: [Ryuji's mind is full of classes. He kept talking about it when he met him this morning.]

Yusuke: [We have another infiltration plan today, please help me!]

Ryuji: [No need to bother, just watch me beat him up! He's a real vampire! Hang him on the streetlight!]

Zhou Keer: [We should be more cautious. Judging from the situation we are facing, we are much stronger than Kamo Shida. After all, the class has been like this for a long time and has a wide reputation!]

Ryuji: [This is a big shot! If we can make him repent, the support in the channel will definitely increase!]

Alvin came to the community hospital again.

Wu Jianmiao was still sitting alone in the pharmacy.

"You're here? Are you here to buy medicine today?" Seeing Ivan, Wu Jianmiao smiled unconsciously, and it seemed that his mood had improved.

"Yes, by the way, have you developed any new drugs?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Jianmiao was even happier! "Yesterday I was thinking of asking you if you had time today! I didn't expect you to come to me on your own! I need to draw blood today!"

Wu Jianmiao stood up and tilted his head slightly: "Come on! Please come to the consulting room!"

This tilt of the head hit Ivan directly in the heart. Beat him! Beat him hard! Beat him with a big pipe.

After completing the whole process, even though Alvin was a little tired, he lay down on the bed to rest.

"Sorry, did you make too much today? Did you take the tonic on time? I'm beginning to doubt whether you're some kind of biochemical warrior. Your physical fitness is at least 12 times stronger than before. Your self-healing ability alone is ridiculously strong. Are you really a human?"

"This is a secret between us, don't tell anyone!"

"Of course! Although I am the God of Plague, I still have basic professional ethics. Besides, only you can use the recently developed medicine. I won't sell it to others if they want to use it!" Wu Jianmiao glanced at Ivan who was lying on the bed.

"Hey, are you free the day after tomorrow?"

"Of course there are. Look at a clinic like mine. Who would come? They don't even want to come for a minor cold! Let's not talk about that. Do you need my help with anything this weekend?" Wu Jianmiao crossed his legs and leaned back in his chair.

"I guess so! But you don't need to wear a white coat." Alvin said with a smile.

"Oh? It seems the little white mouse has his own ideas! Then I'll give you Wednesday. There's nothing to do anyway." Wu Jianmiao said casually, but he could still hardly hide the loneliness in his eyes.

Wu Jianmiao became a doctor hoping to save lives instead of hiding in a community hospital doing experiments.

After school……

A group of people looked at the RV in the parking lot and fell into deep thought.

"The equipment you mentioned... isn't this it?" Yusuke was also shocked by Ivan! He originally thought it was just some model guns, medicines and the like, but he actually built a motorhome as a secret base.

"What do you think? Isn't this much more convenient? At least it's better than the rooftop or the station, right?" Alvin said.

In addition to the living room, kitchen, bathroom, etc., the RV also has a conference room, which is more than enough to accommodate all these people!

"Okay, Kara will be waiting for us in reality. We can evacuate in the car! Let's go. Today's goal is to find the location of the Banmu secret treasure!"

After everyone checked their equipment and Alvin distributed the purchased medicines, he started the other world navigation app.

In front of the art museum...

"By the way, Yusuke is a newcomer, right? He hasn't chosen a code name yet, right?" Morgana suggested giving Yusuke a nickname as well.

"Well... I thought of it yesterday, but I never told you. How about calling it [FOX]? My mask and clothes are very similar to a fox." Yusuke also directly expressed his thoughts.

Everyone agreed, so Yusuke's code name was finalized as [FOX]!

It was the familiar pickup truck again, and the Phantom Thieves easily crossed the courtyard and reached the infiltration point.

Morgana lowered the rope once again, and everyone fell into the art gallery along the rope.

I don't know if it's the influence of reality, but there are a lot more shadows this time. Fortunately, with the addition of Yusuke and the strength of Ivan, no one in the team was injured. Every time Ivan started the fight, and then everyone solved it as quickly as possible, and we still arrived at the central courtyard very easily.

I don’t know how many exhibition areas there are left, so I hope the exploration will go smoothly.

"Great, the security system is still turned off." Long Si shouted excitedly.

"Alas~ It took a lot of effort to close it..." Zhou Keer sighed. It was an indelible shadow and a lifelong stain.

"This door, is it the one in reality? The way to crack it is really simple. I just need to open it in front of everyone. But your makeup skills are really amazing. Can you teach me? I feel that my inspiration can make a breakthrough in this area!" Although I had explained the general situation to Yusuke yesterday, there were still some differences from seeing it with my own eyes.

"When we get out, let Kara teach you!" Ivan felt that Yusuke's train of thought was really amazing. He was worthy of being an art student!

"Is that so? Then please!"

......

They walked through the central courtyard and came to the hall at the back, where the map now showed that this place was the rest area of ​​the Treasure Hall.

In addition to portraits of disciples from various classes, there is also a huge statue made entirely of gold, which is shining brightly!

"I feel that Kamoshida's castle is not so luxurious! I guess even if all the gold in his treasure trove was melted, it would only be enough to make a statue like this. How rich is Banmu?" Ryuji said with emotion.

"After all, Kamo Shida is just a physical education teacher. He doesn't have the ability to make money. His class makes a lot of money by copying Sayuri, and he has stolen the students' inspiration. He doesn't need to paint, he just needs to snatch the students' work." Zhou Ke'er responded.

Banmu's influence in reality is much greater than Kamoshida's. If he went to Shujin, the principal would probably have to move away and the board of directors would have to welcome him with a smile.

He represents the highest level of the art world of Xiao Ri Zi. Of course, this is limited to Xiao Ri Zi in China.

Kyouya frowned and glanced at Yusuke. "It's really a robbery. Just to satisfy your own vanity and greed, I don't know how many people's dreams have been ruined."

Passing through the huge statue, the Phantom Thieves discovered a map guide on a golden magazine rack.

After comparison, I found that this is the lower half of the map. It seems that I can follow this to reach the location of the secret treasure!

There was a huge main hall drawn on the map, which was a bit suspicious as it covered a large area, but there was no explanation in the notes and no exhibits were marked.

"Could it be a trap?" Yusuke asked.

"It's hard to say! But in the cognitive world, Banmu's subconscious mind will determine that a certain place is where he hides the secret treasure, and the map also presents the focus of his cognition. This is his most precious thing, and it is this secret treasure that supports the entire [Palace]. Therefore, the place where the secret treasure is hidden must be the most special and the most distorted place." Morgana explained to Yusuke.

"We must definitely go investigate!"

To reach the special hall on the map, you need to pass through many places, through rest areas and galleries. The deeper you go, the stricter the security will be, and you need to move forward more carefully.

The crowd walked through a small corridor and came to a huge exhibition hall. Crouching in the shadows, Alvin observed the target in the venue.

There are 8 shadow guards alone, not to mention the giants made of ink. They are guarding the venue, and there are dense infrared rays all around.

At this point, it has become unavoidable. Alvin carefully observed that there was no point nearby where he could use the grappling hook, so a fierce battle was inevitable.

In desperation, Ivan drew his bow and shot an arrow. The hall was very empty and there was no chance of a sneak attack. He could only attack head-on. In order to prevent the shadows from sounding the alarm, Ivan decided to face all the shadows directly, and then directly summon the Obelisk Giant God Soldier. By offering sacrifices, he could kill all the shadows in one fell swoop.

Alvin rushed into the hall and jumped high. It was easy for him to do these movements after his body was strengthened.

The arrow shot out and pierced directly into Shadow's head, and the giant made of ink was directly torn apart by the arrow and couldn't hold on for a single move.

While Ivan was attracting attention, the summoned personalities of the Phantom Thieves rushed over.

As Alvin landed, the shadow soldier exploded, revealing his true form, which looked strange and grotesque.

Shiki-oji (a kind of shikigami in Onmyoji, a mask of the god among gods in the game)

Jack Frost (a fairy of winter and frost in English legend)

There are many shadows that cannot be named and have not been recorded.

Alvin didn't waste any words. A tall blue figure gathered behind him and punched the ground, and it felt like the entire barrier shook.

All the shadows in front of him turned to ashes.

The barrier of cognition receded, and only Alvin was standing in the center of the infrared formation.

"It feels like he is an army all by himself! Can Banmu's Shadow withstand a punch?" Yusuke only pulled out half of his sword and could only look at the empty hall, then he put it back.

"We thought so before, but we will gradually become stronger, right? Compared to the last time we fought against Kamoshida, everyone has become much stronger. It's also thanks to Dragonborn who has been taking care of us, otherwise we wouldn't have grown so fast!" Xing said on the side, looking at Ivan with eyes that seemed to be shining.

"You'll get used to it. He's our boss after all! It's normal for him to be stronger!" Long Si chuckled.

"Dragonborn also took good care of me! He and Joker were the ones who saved me in the beginning!"

Yusuke thought back to what the class said yesterday, how Ivan and Kara took care of him last night, and how he spent time with the Phantom Thieves.

Although it was only a day or two, it felt like we had known each other for a long time. Everyone was so warm, friendly, and trusting of each other. This atmosphere was something Yusuke had never experienced before, and it made him feel very comfortable. He felt free and unburdened with everyone, just like a family, with two parents, Ivan and Kara, and other brothers and sisters.

Yusuke smiled and followed, walking with everyone. After so many years of ups and downs, he seemed to have found his redemption and destiny.
