Phantom Thief of Heart!but conan

Chapter 12 Persona - Twenty Faces
"Does it hurt?" The cold muzzle hit his bloody wound, "I ask you, does it hurt?"

The voice that could never be erased echoed in the dim hut.

"Anyway, it's already a waste that can't stand up... the other leg, shall I remove it for you too?"

The smell of blood filled the nostrils, and the moonlight sprinkled coldly on the blood.

People who are powerless to resist are like fish out of water, panting, struggling and bouncing.

Everything coincides with the scene in front of me.

Tang Ze gritted his teeth, pain and anger spread from the depths of his memory, the roof tiles he was holding were overwhelmed and made a broken sound.

The shadows of the vigilant samurai pulled out their sabers in unison. Marudenjiro, who was watching the prey's mournful expression, was also startled, and turned to the direction where Tang Ze was hiding: "Someone is there! Who!"

Tang Ze stood up.

He originally crouched on the side of the roof, hiding himself with his back against the wall. This action completely exposed him to the vision of the shadows.

But now Tang Ze has no time to take care of the tense scene in front of him.

In front of his eyes, there were those things that he tried his best to forget.

In the cramped room, there were gunshots and severe pain, and the sharp blade pierced into the flesh and blood, one knife after another.

Hunger, hypothermia, the ticking of blood falling on the ground is getting louder and louder...

Also, there were sympathetic gazes in front of the hospital bed, and sympathetic gazes that were unwilling to look at him, as if silently repeating the same word.

"waste".

"Puff-"

The violent heartbeat echoed in Tang Ze's eardrum.

"Have you really forgotten, those hurts. The future was denied, ended...Have you really forgotten?"

The immature voice of a child, the thick voice of a man, and the crisp voice of a woman, it seems that several people spoke at the same time, and several voices overlapped and sounded in Tang Ze's heart.

"Haven't you had enough of the fate that was manipulated, the pride that was broken, and the life that was destroyed? Do you want to feel the shame again?"

The pain radiated from the heart to the whole body, Tang Ze staggered two steps, hugged the painful head, unable to suppress the cry of pain.

"Stand up, stand up again, those who don't try their best will only be swallowed by fate—"

"Ahh-!"

As if because of pain, or because of deeper emotions buried in his heart, Tang Ze roared, his fingers touched the edge of the mask covering his face.

"That's it, let's make a contract. I am you, and you are me—

"With a posture that is never defined, with a posture that no one can ignore, let's dance in fate!"

Tang Ze grabbed the mask and tore it off his face forcefully, as if the pain of separating the flesh made the veins on the back of his hand bulge.

An invisible air wave whizzed away with Tang Ze as the center point, the shadow of Marudenjiro couldn't help but raised his sleeves to cover his face, blocking the strong wind.

Tang Ze raised his head, the upper half of his face was covered with blood.

The plasma slid down the bridge of his nose and landed on Tang Ze's lips. He licked the sweet blood, and the blue flame engulfed him whole.

After the flames dissipated, Tang Ze, who was still wearing the Didan school uniform just now, turned into a black suit, with a bright red scarf wrapped around his neck, and his trailing tail fluttered violently in the wind.

Behind him, the black monster stood up in the flames. Under the black top hat was a face with a skull mask. Behind the leather dress was a wide cloak dancing. The blackness of the whole body made it look like a backlit silhouette. Make the white mask under the brim look even paler.

And behind it, more pure white masks, fox masks, ghost masks, neng masks, crying and smiling faces, are wrapped in a tentacle-like pitch-black mist, which is eerily eerie.

Slowly regaining his senses, Tang Ze glanced back at his persona, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

What, why is Yasen so handsome, but his mask is Cthulhu style, it looks so san?
Forget it, fill the cup, no, it's important to hit the palace.

"You are such a pervert who takes pleasure in torturing others with money and resources, Mr. Maru." Tang Ze looked down condescendingly on Maru Denjiro who retreated hastily, "If you were not afraid of the law, you would definitely make this scene into reality Reproduce it? Disgusting guy."

"Who are you! Why did you appear in my mansion!" Marudenjiro yelled at him with an ugly face.

"Me? I'm the one who wants to send you to hell." Tang Ze opened his hands, and the scarf fluttered more and more with his movements, "Letting the scum die directly is to free you, you should Live, live well, and watch yourself lose money, fame, status, and spend the rest of your life in prison regretting."

Marudenjiro's shadow cursed two curse words, and shouted loudly: "Everyone go arrest someone, I'm going to kill him! Where are the archers! Shoot arrows, shoot arrows!"

Tang Ze showed a bright smile and jumped back.

He disappeared before the eyes of the shadows.

Before entering the battle, Tang Ze quietly grabbed the phone and directly exited the Cognitive World.

Although the words are beautiful, but Tang Ze has not issued the notice letter, the real body is not on high alert because of the notice letter, and the secret treasure will not appear at all.

So after playing Maru Denjiro now, people will not directly repent. No matter how fast he has to go through the process, Tang Ze is very clear about P5 and the purpose of the third week.

But this does not prevent him from speaking a wave of lines, it is really exciting to run away after pretending to be forceful.

Just about to put his hips on his hips and laugh twice, Tang Ze lowered his head and his expression froze.

Damn, why is he still wearing the Phantom Thief costume? !

And people also teleported from the shopping street to the entrance of Maru's house.

Guiltyly, Tang Ze looked left and right to make sure that no one noticed that this person had transformed into a living person, so he tried to make the clothes change back.

After he concentrated on this thought, the black clothes on his body flickered and changed back to the blue Di Dan school uniform.

It would be nice if he could change back, Tang Ze heaved a sigh of relief.

If he can't change back, he will have to find a place to hide and change his clothes when he comes out of the cognitive world in the future, that would be too inelegant.

As soon as he relaxed, Tang Ze felt sore and weak all over, and his whole body shook twice.

This is the power consumption of awakening the mask, isn't it, so tiring.

Sighing, he took out his mobile phone, opened the navigation app—of course it was a normal map app—Tang Ze recorded the address of Maru's house, and walked back to the cafe.

Along the way, Tang Ze slowly sorted out information about his persona in his mind.

Different from the mask of the protagonist of P5, Yassen Robin, Karasawa's initial mask is the strange thief in Edogawa Ranpo's novel, the strange man with twenty faces.

How should I put it, it's a bit of a surprise, but not too much of a surprise.

Twenty Faces of the Stranger is a phantom thief character designed by Edogawa Ranpo based on the literary image of Arsen Robin. He is proficient in disguise and disguise. "Twenty Faces" refers to his good at disguising his identity. Has twenty different faces.

He is well-known for stealing works of art, with superb techniques, bold and careful, and will write a notice letter to the owner of the item before he starts, informing the other party of the time to do it himself.

Does it sound familiar?

That's right, Kidd's prototypes are Twenty Faces and Yasen.

The old enemy of the twenty-faced monster is the classic detective character written by Edogawa, Akechi Kogoro.

It is the prototype of Mori Kogoro, and Akechi Goro in P5 directly neta this role.

Thinking of this, Tang Ze patted his forehead.

What kind of weird joke is this?Is there a feeling of being appointed?

And he didn't believe that there would be an image of a policeman with a broken leg in Maru Denjiro's palace for no reason. Tang Ze is not someone who is easy to break through. If he didn't get PTSD by this leg-cutting scene, he couldn't be henshin abruptly, saying that this is not Tang Ze didn't believe it because he did it on purpose!
Leon, come out and get beaten!
