A Core Ship From The Start

Chapter 1221 - 1221 828 Hall

?Chapter 1221: Chapter 828: Hall Chapter 1221: Chapter 828: Hall After determining their target, the Gang of Thieves hit the streets to discuss their next plan of action.

“We know her name now; all we need to find out is what she considers to be where, and we can make our move!”

Sakamoto Ryuji danced around in high spirits, while Yugong Lian and Yoshikawa Yuki wore helpless expressions.

They had become Phantom Thieves and managed to inspire personal reform in people through a strange mobile app. This app, similar to a navigation tool, allowed them to enter another person’s inner world—what the members of the Gang of Thieves referred to as the “Palace”—by inputting the target’s name and identifying their location and key buildings.

Of course, that alone wasn’t enough. The Gang had to infiltrate the target’s inner world and find the source of their desire. However, they couldn’t steal it just yet because without feeling threatened, a person’s source of desire was ambiguous and uncatchable.

So, the next step was for the Gang to send a calling card in the real world. Only then would the source of the target’s desire manifest in their inner world. Once the Gang stole that source, the target would regret their ways and reform.

Now, they only knew the name of Duanmu Ai but had not yet figured out what she saw in what location.

So, the next steps involved investigating precisely that.

But…

“Does anyone have any ideas?”

Faced with Yoshikawa Yuki’s question, both Yugong Lian and Sakamoto Ryuji shook their heads.

“Isn’t she your classmate?”

“That’s true, but she hardly interacts with anyone in class, not exactly approachable,” replied Ryuji, shaking his head. Then, as if a thought had just occurred to him, he looked over at Yugong Lian.

“Right, didn’t that post say she went off to become an actress or something?”

“I asked the teacher, and she said Duanmu had taken leave until the end of the month without specifying why.”

“Then let’s check… she didn’t go to the TV station, did she? So it’s got to be the TV station!”

As he spoke, Sakamoto Ryuji entered “TV station” into the app, but nothing happened.
