"Yeah, But somewhere in the chat... I saw something that was off." Junpei said as he suddenly felt the

"What would that be Junpei?" Yukari said looking at Junpei, He started shaking his head.

"One message said 'These games are better than those Phantom Thieves!'" Junpei said as he was scrolling through it.

"Wait what? No way. Thats gotta be a fake thing you came up with." Yukari doubted, Junpei decided to prove her wrong.

"Im not lying! I saw it and even screen shot it!" Junpei said as he showed the picture, Everyone was amazed. Futaba noticed the face icon and realized who it was.

"Wait, That picture icon... It's from Connor himself!" Futaba realized.

"He really would say that about us?" Fuuka said being worried a little.

"Thats so bullshit! We should show him why we are popular!" Ryuji said angrily as he clenched his fist

"Who knows about Connor's backstory?" Akira said, Nobody knew.

"I heard about Connor before." A familiar voice said.

"Who're you?" Mitsuru said, However Akira knew the person.

"Hifumi? Is that you?" Akira said.

"Indeed Akira, These your friends?" Hifumi said quietly.

"Um yes... Hello to you Hifumi!" Yukari greeted her.

"Shes so kind, Im surprised your friends." Junpei gestured at Akira, He just rolled his eyes in disgust.

"Hi! Glad to meet you all!" Hifumi gladly said, She bowed to them.

"Right, Hifumi was it?" Mitsuru said, She nodded her head to a yes.

"Yeah. I gotta go! See you Akira!" Hifumi said, Akira stopped her before she left.

"Hifumi, Do you anything about Connor Yuntaoi?" Akira asked Hifumi, She nodded and told the story.

"Yes, He is making a video game off the shogi, Ever since he was a kid. He was nothing good at video games himself. So he decided to be a CEO of a video games from board games, Like the shogi and chess." Hifumi said about the story.

"Man where is this location?" Akira said looking at his map on the phone.

"Akira! Watch out!" Haru said as a man wasn't paying attention either.

"Eh? Oof!" Akira said turning his head back before bumping into a random man.

"Ouch, So sorry! I was looking at my phone once again." The man said.

"No way!" Futaba said in shock. She knew who it was!

"What now Futaba?" Ann asked her, Her hands were shaking with pride.

"Your Connor Yuntaoi right?" Futaba said rushing over at the man.

"Yes, Why?" Connor said confusingly.

"Whats with the new video games that you just live-streamed?" Fuuka asked nervously. Connor just chuckled from it.

"Oh that? Sorry... I'm just creative and games are something that keeps me company. That's what made me a CEO!" Connor chuckled a little.

"I do love your new games already!" Futaba said being super happy.

"Futaba!?" Makoto said as she couldn't believe it.

"Mr. Yuntaoi? Your reports are here, You should get going." A reported asked as Connor got up.

"Oh okay, See you all later! Thanks for loving my games!" Connor said as he left the group.

"Laters! Aaaah! He talked to me! It's amazing!" Futaba said as she felt like she was gonna lose it.

"Calm down, Lets see for ourselves." Akira said.

5:02 P.M.

"Hey guys! He released a video after the stream!" Mishima said, Everyone started watching the video.

"What do you think of the Phantom Thieves popularity?" Said a reporter.

"Heh, Im making video games to beat the popularity of the Phantom Thieves! Basically I am mocking those suckers!" Connor chuckled to the reporter.

"Mocking us!?" Yusuke said in shock. It was a betrayal to them.

"That stupid bitch! How dare he!" Ryuji and Junpei said gritting their teeth.

"Thinks it's funny huh? Then he's next on the list." Yukari said in disgust. However, The group didn't know how far they were from the situation.

"Thats their next target on their list huh?" The long haired girl said.

"Alright, We gotta save him from being killed from those 'Phantom Thieves!'" The gray haired boy said.

"Lets follow those words and we can take advantage of this." The detective said as they waited, Akira felt a shock wave and turned his head.

"Is someone following us?" Akira sensed as he felt someone followed them.

"What do you mean?" Yusuke said at Akira.

"I thought someone was following or even spying on us." Akira said looking at the small crowd behind them.

"Nah, No way." Hamuko refused to believe.

"Huh? You didn't? I thought I heard something like save." Akira said.

"We'll find out soon enough. Come on, We need some word thinking." Akihiko said.

"Right, We had our fun. Now it's time to continue." Yusuke said, Everyone pulled their phones out.

"Their fun? Were they waiting for us?" The boy in gray hair thought.

"Let's just move it. We gotta see their plan to this." The detective said.

"Guys, I found something." A energetic girl's voice said.

"What the? A Phansite?" A long haired girl said.

"IS CONNOR THE NEXT TARGET FOR THE PHANTOM THIEVES? Y/N" - Phansite

"Bro, Phantom thieves being over populated by video games!" - Agular2045

"Maybe this is something." The detective said.

"Hold on! Their coming!" The gray haired boy said as they all hid in a alleyway, The group came to their location and pulled out the app.

"Video games over Phantom Thieves huh?" Akira said muttering upsettingly.

"We'll see who is mocking us with video games soon!" Ryuji said.

"Just wait till the Phansite gets popular!" Hamuko said looking at the bar being 12%

"Lets check out the other world, See whats going on there." Minato said

"Yeah, Maybe those two have found something." Makoto wondered about the two.

"Right, We'll go and see what he is doing." Akira said as everyone vanished to the shadow world.

"Their going, Shall we follow?" The detective said.

"Yeah, It's best to follow so we don't lose their sight." The energetic girl said.

"Lets use the app and get far from them if we can." The gray haired boy said.

"Other world, Thats where they attack!" The detective said being serious.

"Hmm, No doubt. They are ready for it." The gray haired boy said being a bit serious.

"I guess we should do it anyways." The detective pondered as a test.

"Lets try to use the app their using." The long haired girl said.

"Here we go!" The energetic girl said as they vanished to the other world to follow the group.
