Everyone else is a Phantom Thief? You awakened the three mythical gods?

Chapter 109: Inside the Palace



Chapter 109: Inside the Palace

July 7th, today is the official summer vacation.

"Thank you, Boss Sakura!" Alvin thanked Boss Sakura, and the others followed suit.

"I should be the one to thank you for working so hard for Futaba... Although it is very difficult, I also hope that the child can overcome the difficulties. By the way, I have hired a psychologist before, but no one could make her willing to open the door. She turned them all away... You are the first person to make Futaba cooperate like this, Ivan." Boss Sakura smiled and stretched out his hand.

Seeing this, Ivan also reached out his hand: "Maybe it's because my approach is something she likes! So she accepted it quickly."

"Then I'll leave Futaba to you. She's waiting for you upstairs. Just call me if you need anything and I'll do my best to cooperate... I just hope Futaba can live and grow up like a normal child!" Boss Sakura seemed to have thought of something and looked a little lonely.

Ivan was slightly stunned. He had thought about these things last night. Would it be too cruel for Futaba? The truth was cruel. She had to face a lot of things if her [Secret Treasure] was directly stolen.

Then will she awaken her personality mask?

Would she then let go of her suicidal thoughts and guilt?

But after that, Ivan quickly put all the thoughts behind him. What right did he have to make a choice for Shuangye? Let her choose! If she was willing to live a plain life, then stealing her secret treasure would stop her from wanting to commit suicide.

On the contrary, she will get the power that belongs to her and embark on the road of resistance and redemption with everyone.

So when Ivan explained the situation to Futaba last night, he had already asked Futaba to think about her choice, but he had never considered the thoughts of Boss Sakura herself.

In fact, he was also helpless, and wanted to avenge Isshiki Wakaba...

"Ivan? What's wrong? What are you thinking about? Let's go in quickly?" Xing and Wu Jianmiao came up and asked with concern. Ivan stood there in a daze for a while.

"Nothing! Let's go and give Futaba the warning letter first!" Ivan shook his head, and then led everyone into Boss Sakura's house.

He walked up to the second floor skillfully and knocked on Futaba's door. The seal was still on the door.

"Futaba, we're here! I should have explained this to you yesterday! Can they come in with us?"

As soon as Ivan finished speaking, his phone rang. He opened it and saw a message from Shuangye. [The door is not locked, come in! I am willing to go with you!]

"Excuse me! We're coming in!" Ivan said, gently opening Shuangye's door and walking in. Everyone followed Ivan into the room.

The air conditioning in the room was turned on very low, and the summer heat was driven away by the air conditioner.

Everyone entered the room. The room was dark without lights on. Futaba sat on a computer chair, wearing a somewhat scary doll headgear on her head, facing everyone. The headgear was so strange that it triggered the uncanny valley effect.

"Ahhhh!!! Ghost!! Sister, save me!!!" When Shin Niijima walked in, he saw Futaba's mask. He screamed in fright and hugged Ivan beside him tightly. His legs felt a little weak.

[This contrast... so cute] Ivan turned on the light and helped Shinjima up, protecting him behind him: "Alright, alright, it's okay, that's Futaba!"

"Is the president afraid of this?" Long Si scratched his head and looked at Shinjima Shin who was holding Ivan tightly.

Although everyone was shocked, no one reacted as strongly as Shinjima Makoto.

Since Shinjima shouted "Sister, save me", Xing and Takemiya didn't look at her with any strange eyes.

Futaba watched all this in silence, and the scene became awkward.

Several people stared at each other, and only Ivan was comforting Shinjima, who was [socially dead + mentally traumatized].

After a while, Shinjima finally recovered a little: "Let's...get down to business. I feel much better now. Thank you, Alvin!"

Ivan nodded, then walked up to Shuangye and said, "How about you take off this hood first? You can't read the preview letter like this, right?"

Futaba struggled internally, but finally took off the hood.

Her long, delicate orange hair fell on her shoulders, her face was a little thin, and her complexion was a little pale... probably due to unbalanced nutrition.

"Here, the preview letter! Have you thought about it? If you're sure! After you finish reading it, come in with us?" Alvin said as he handed over the preview letter.

"What? Futaba is going to the palace with us? But isn't she the owner of the palace? Is this still possible?" Morgana was completely confused.

Of course, Morgana was not the only one who was confused. It seemed that this was not the case before. Could the owner of the palace enter the palace by himself?

"Well... Futaba is quite special. We will know the details when we get to the palace, and this is Futaba's own choice! Right?" Alvin explained to everyone, and then looked at Futaba.

I saw Futaba looking blankly to one side, as if there was someone standing there.

"I want to... live! I miss my mother..." Futaba came to her senses after hearing Ivan's question, looked at the Phantom Thieves, and spoke with difficulty.

"Leave it to us! We will protect you!" Ivan nodded, then gave Zhou Keer a look.

Zhou Keer understood what he meant and took out her cell phone and clicked on the record in the navigation.

"There is no trace of shadow on the stairs! Let's go up," Morgana reminded, and then turned into a plane.

"Cat! It talked? And it turned into a plane?" Futaba, who followed everyone into the [palace], looked at everything curiously. Everyone's costumes were also very beautiful.

The journey was smooth and everyone arrived at the previous elevator.

This time the elevator did not keep anyone out, and everyone logged on.

The elevator slowly rose and finally stopped at the top floor, where there was a dark room with a coffin.

Just as everyone was about to move forward, the coffin slowly opened.

Futaba's shadow crawled out from inside, "Is it finally here?"

"You!! You are..." Futaba looked at the person in front of her who looked exactly like her in surprise. Although she could see the phantom of her own shadow in the real world, she thought it was an illusion before. She didn't expect it to be real! Futaba was so scared that she hid behind Ivan.

"Haven't you remembered yet? The real me...are you willing to be sealed up like this forever? Lying in this cold coffin...waiting for death." Futaba's shadow slowly floated over.

"That...that's because of mom...I killed mom! My mom committed suicide because of me. If I hadn't been born...if I hadn't kept clamoring to go out and play with mom, mom wouldn't have been under so much pressure." Futaba's emotions fluctuated greatly.

Seeing this, Alvin could only rush to support him.

"It's all my fault..." Futaba murmured softly.
