Learning that Futaba is a relative of Sojiro, who is under pressure from Sae concerning his parental authority of her, the gang, receiving a threat from Medjed that they will attack Japan if their identities are not revealed by 31st July, go to Sojiro's house and come face to face with Futaba.

1. Yes. I've received the reports on Kaneshiro's case.

2. But to think the Phantom Thieves would attempt something absurd like social reform...

3. You're right. I'm not pleased about the general public's support of them either.

4. Actually, there is one countermeasure he brought in that seems usable.

5. Ah, I thought as much. I had a feeling it was too brutal to be his own idea.

6. Yes. We'll clean this up quickly and put it behind us.

7. FINAL EXAM

8. Okay! Time's up!

9. So you did pretty well with this one, yeah?

10. Maybe.

11. Now for the long-awaited...

12. Fireworks!

13. I can't wait!

14. It started already!

15. What the hell? Did we come just to see a crowd? Jeez!

16. This sucks...

17. Jeez! I put on a nice kimono and it gets soaked!

18. What?

19. Hey.

20. That seems uncomfortable.

21. Then at least buy me a towel!

22. Let's go inside.

23. It's totally crowded.

24. Everyone had the same idea.

25. This bites.

26. When we've got both finishing finals and reforming Kaneshiro to celebrate...

27. Ryuji, lower your voice.

28. It's fine. Everybody's too wrapped up in their own business to hear me.

29. Still, we have to be careful!

30. Okay, okay...

31. I kind of get how Ryuji feels.

32. I thought we'd make fun memories tonight...

33. Even though we're the hot topic of the nation,

34. aren't heroes that lurk in the shadows boring?

35. Yeah, well...

36. I'm not satisfied with this.

37. I wanna change the world with a loud bang, like a huge firework!

38. But it's not going to be easy finding a bigger target than Kaneshiro.

39. I know...

40. So you won't tell me, no matter what?

41. I have nothing more to say about that.

42. I see.

43. If so, I have ways of making you talk.

44. Huh? What's that supposed to–

45. Thanks for the drink.

46. With the Kaneshiro case, the popularity of the Phantom Thieves has increased,

47. PHANTOM THIEVES, HACKER ORGANIZATION

48. even garnering the attention of other countries.

49. The international hacktivist group "Medjed" has released a statement on their website

50. as a declaration of war against the Phantom Thieves.

51. This is that message.

52. "To the Phantom Thieves causing an uproar in Japan...

53. Do not speak of your false justice.

54. We are the true executors of justice.

55. However, we are magnanimous.

56. Phantom Thieves, if you agree to a change of heart,

57. we will accept you as our own.

58. We are Medjed. We are unseen. We will eliminate evil.

59. If you reject our offer, the hammer of justice will find you."

60. Easy for them to say!

61. It's all over the net.

62. They inconsiderately rile people up. The creeps.

63. Like we'd listen to some jerks we've never met to join them.

64. The news said they're an international hacker group, remember?

65. Technically, they're crackers.

66. Those who use the internet to illegally access and alter data.

67. Madjed is such a group recognized by the larger international community.

68. Medjed's original inspiration was an evil god from the Book of the Dead.

69. I guess at first they uncovered corporate fraud.

70. But eventually, they used the info they found to threaten companies.

71. Though they haven't been very active until this...

72. Not ringin' any bells.

73. Same here. We probably don't have to worry too much.

74. I agree.

75. And it's not as if they know our identities.

76. Amamiya!

77. Check this out.

78. It's on the Phan-site's forum.

79. Weird, right? Seems childish for a Medjed stunt.

80. Well, I can deal with this easily enough.

81. Um... Look, this was on your test too, right?

82. It'll be important later, so don't–

83. Hey! Turn off your phone during class...

84. What is this?

85. Are you bullying me?

86. Go on, hurry and turn them off!

87. I'll confiscate any phones not turned off!

88. Okay. That's enough.

89. The reaction is excellent.

90. I got good data this time around, too.

91. I've noticed lately that your body's been getting toned.

92. It's not a problem for me.

93. I'm grateful to have a guinea pig with a healthy lifestyle.

94. You're still a bit dizzy from the medicine, right?

95. Hang out in the waiting room for a while.

96. Nice to meet you, leader of the Phantom Thieves.

97. I am the one called Alibaba.

98. Did you like my jingle during class today?

99. What's wrong?

100. Alibaba? Who's that?

101. It seems you've drawn the attention of a formidable opponent.

102. Medjed.

103. I could provide info on them.

104. Then you would be able to get rid of them.

105. This is all I can prove at the moment.

106. But you'll be able to take care of Medjed.

107. However, that's if we make a deal.

108. I don't mind if you tell your comrades about me.

109. After all, it has to be unanimous with your group, right?

110. A deal? My comrades?

111. They even know we decide on things unanimously...

112. - I've prepared the necessary tool on my end. - Look forward to it.

113. Necessary?

114. There is someone whose heart I would like you to steal.

115. They know everything about us!

116. "Steal someone's heart,"unanimous"... How do they know?

117. My guess is that they may have traced our chat log.

118. It's definitely something a hacker would do.

119. Then, is this person Medjed?

120. Why? They said they'd "deal" with them.

121. They're obviously enemies.

122. I know, but...

123. Maybe they had a falling out or something.

124. Can you send a message?

125. I get an error every time I try.

126. Perhaps the receiving end doesn't exist.

127. This is kind of scary. Accounts being hacked...

128. Does that mean ours, too?

129. That's very likely.

130. C-Crap! I better delete some stuff!

131. What are you panicking for?

132. Sounds pervy...

133. N-No! It's nothin' like that!

134. Anyway, let's be careful using our phones.

135. Important matters should be face-to-face.

136. We shouldn't give our unknown intruder any more info than we already have.

137. Let me see it once more.

138. What is this "necessary"?

139. Not sure.

140. There is someone whose heart I would like you to steal.

141. Who could they want us to reform?

142. Oh, you're back, huh?

143. A letter came.

144. Addressed to you, weirdly enough.

145. MR. REN AMAMIYA

146. Enjoy.

147. A calling card?

148. It's from Alibaba?

149. Maybe.

150. It doesn't look suspicious.

151. No stamp or sender's name.

152. Someone must've delivered it directly.

153. Are we supposed to use this?

154. Dunno...

155. It's from Alibaba.

156. What?

157. Did you get what I sent you?

158. So it was from them.

159. Now steal that heart.

160. Steal...

161. What are they talkin' about?

162. We can't do that when we don't even know the target's name.

163. Ready to go?

164. What should we do?

165. But if we can't message them back...

166. Tell me why.

167. I've set it so you can respond.

168. Who are you?

169. I'm Alibaba.

170. Don't waste my time with meaningless chatter.

171. Aren't you able to steal a heart as long as you have a calling card?

172. Tell me why you're unable to do it.

173. I think they've got the wrong idea.

174. Tell' em. We need the target's name.

175. We need the target's name.

176. A name? You can't do it if I don't tell you?

177. That's right.

178. I see.

179. I suppose past calling cards did have names on them.

180. One moment.

181. Very well, I'll tell you.

182. The target is Futaba Sakura.

183. Futaba Sakura?

184. Okay. I told you the name.

185. Now change her heart.

186. If you don't do it, I'll expose your identity to the public.

187. Go public?

188. Now they're threatening us?

189. First of all, we can't steal Futaba Sakura's heart if she doesn't have a Palace.

190. We also need a location and a keyword for the Palace.

191. Tell them that.

192. Does Futaba have a Palace? What's a keyword about it?

193. Palace? Keyword? What does a palace have to do with it?

194. I don't know anything about that.

195. Are you just saying random stuff to dodge the issue?

196. Looks like they don't know about our methods.

197. Ask if we could meet her.

198. Could we meet? We want info.

199. Meet? With me?

200. That will be difficult.

201. I can't go out.

202. That's why I'm contacting you like this.

203. They can't go out?

204. Wait.

205. I get what you mean.

206. You steal people's hearts directly, huh?

207. That's difficult.

208. Extremely difficult.

209. Hold on.

210. I'm thinking...

211. It's a shame, but I'm calling the deal off.

212. Stop looking into Futaba Sakura.

213. Forget this ever happened. I won't report your identities.

214. Sorry for taking your time.

215. Now if you'll excuse me...

216. Wait

217. What's going on here?

218. It seems the sending address was deleted.

219. Then...

220. We don't have to steal Futaba Sakura's heart?

221. Guess not.

222. What the hell? Fickle hacker!

223. Hey, this has been eating away at me,

224. but I feel like I've heard the name "Sakura" before recently...

225. What are you talking about?

226. That's the family name of Le Blanc's boss.

227. You didn't pick up on that either?

228. Maybe Futaba Sakura is Boss's relative?

229. His wife or little sister...

230. Does that sound familiar to you?

231. Hey man, show some interest.

232. I mean, you're livin' there. Weren't you introduced, at least?

233. Maybe due to circumstances, it's hard for him to bring it up.

234. What circumstances?

235. I am not sure.

236. Is this the end of the Alibaba affair?

237. Probably. They said the deal was off.

238. It's just left me confused.

239. Certainly, there was no closure.

240. I think we're okay for now,

241. but let's make sure our phones are secure.

242. Okay.

243. M-Me too!

244. What's wrong, Ren?

245. Futaba...

246. You insist that it's not possible?

247. Yeah. I have nothing to tell you.

248. Then I'm afraid I'll look into terminating your parental authoriy.

249. I take it you're fine with that?

250. Considering the state of Futaba and your family overall,

251. there are no points in your favor.

252. Would you like to take this to domestic court? Our chance of victory is roughly 99.9% though.

253. With these suspicions of abuse, there's no way you could avoid having your custody revoked.

254. I don't know anything about that!

255. We'll be the judge of that.

256. As long as there's a possible link to psychotic breakdowns...

257. Fine!

258. Then I'll contact you at a later date.

259. Scatter some salt!

260. That woman is real good at pissing people off...

261. What?

262. She said Futaba...

263. This doesn't involve you.

264. Just behave yourself and go to school if you don't want me to throw you out!

265. Got it?

266. I'm closing up for today! I'm pissed off.

267. Domestic court?

268. To decide custody issues, right?

269. Why would the Boss have to do something like that?

270. And abuse?

271. I can't believe it. Not about him.

272. She mentioned termination of parental authority.

273. Parental authority...

274. Then it seems clear that Futaba Sakura is Boss's child.

275. There's no guarantee she's the same Futaba Sakura that Alibaba mentioned,

276. but it's all starting to fit.

277. But if we're supposed to change her heart, wouldn't she be the one doing the abuse?

278. I wonder why Alibaba wanted us to steal Futaba's heart.

279. Can't you ask about that, Ren?

280. I would think twice about that.

281. Based of Boss's furious expression, he might actually kick you out.

282. That could be a little difficult.

283. If abuse really is involved, we can't just let it go.

284. You're closest to the owner, Ren.

285. Does he seem like the type who's capable of abuse?

286. I can't imagine him like that.

287. Me neither.

288. Ditto

289. Me either.

290. Same.

291. Thank you.

292. Ren?

293. I'm tired.

294. What?

295. The power's out! Over there, too!

296. Last night, there was a major blackout in the area around Shibuya Station.

297. Medjed put a statement regarding the incident on their homepage.

298. "Cutting the lights in Shibuya last night was our demonstration.

299. The Phantom Thieves met our question with silence,

300. so we showed the power of our justice.

301. As a sign of Medjed's victory,

302. we offer the Phantom Thieves a final opportunity for a change of heart.

303. We seek the exposure of the Phantom Thieves' identities.

304. If our demand is not met, we'll attack Japan.

305. We're entrusting the future of Japan to the Phantom Thieves' judgment.

306. X-Day is July 31st.

307. We are Medjed. We are unseen. We will eliminate evil."

308. So what they're saying...

309. Medjed will attack Japan unless the Phantom Thieves reveal their identities.

310. What the hell is that?

311. If Medjed's cyberattack caused Japan's economy to fall into chaos...

312. blame would probably be pinned on the Phantom Thieves.

313. Even though they did it?

314. The Phantom Thieves are the ones who pulled the trigger.

315. That's how it would look.

316. Then we're going to do what they want?

317. No.

318. Our justice would lose in that case.

319. Yeah! That's right, Ren!

320. Then what should we do?

321. They're international hackers.

322. Do you have a plan?

323. Why don't we ask Alibaba?

324. They said they'd do something about Medjed!

325. But how do we get in touch?

326. There's something that's been bugging me.

327. Ren, show me your phone.

328. Meet? With me?

329. Right here.

330. When Ren asked, "Could we meet?",

331. at first Alibaba answered, "Me?"

332. Then they say, "I get what you mean."

333. "You steal people's hearts directly, huh?"

334. Looking at it in context,

335. doesn't it make sense that "me" equals Futaba Sakura, whose heart is to be stolen?

336. You're right!

337. It could just be that Alibaba caught on.

338. That we need information about the person whose heart we're going to steal.

339. That could be.

340. But right now, that's all we have to go on!

341. So I say we gotta take a gamble on it.

342. Yeah. Let's go.

343. It's closed.

344. Isn't it early?

345. Do you know where he went?

346. Maybe he went home.

347. Let's head there.

348. SAKURA

349. I don't like this weather.

350. Maybe he's not here.

351. But... the lights are on.

352. Maybe he's pretending to be out?

353. Don't tell me there's abuse goin' on in there right now?

354. Oh, come on!

355. It's raining!

356. Let's go inside!

357. If nothing's happening, we can always apologize!

358. Hey!

359. Oh, it's unlocked.

360. Sorry, Boss... Please excuse us.

361. - Is he out? - But the TV's on.

362. Let's check it out.

363. We've come this far.

364. We're comin' in!

365. H-Hey!

366. Sorry, Boss...

367. This is creepy. I'm kind of scared.

368. Don't say that when you're in someone's–

369. A s-scream?

370. What was that?

371. H-How should I know?

372. D-Did you hear that?

373. Can we get out of here? Please?

374. What're you freakin' out for?

375. I-I'm not freaking out!

376. Could it be Alibaba? I mean, Futaba?

377. C-Come on, let's go back!

378. Hey... Can I hold on to you?

379. What is this? Who is it?

380. I can't take this anymore! I'm leaving!

381. No way... My legs won't move...
