The next day, Alice and Melody Wakabayashi went out together.
This was not a big deal for Alice. She could go anywhere with a beautiful and cute girl.
But Wakabayashi was troubled. This was the first time she went shopping alone with Alice. Although she had made all kinds of plans, Wakabayashi had no idea what Alice liked.
"Um … Is there anything you want to buy, Miss Alice?"
"No. If there was, I would have bought it myself."
"…"
Although they were both high school students, Alice was a Magician and the CEO of a large corporation. She had already achieved more than one small goal. The difference in their financial resources was like heaven and earth.
"Then … Is there anywhere you want to go, Miss Alice?"
“HOTEL。”
"Huh?"
"Nothing, it's still too early … What do you have in mind?"
"Ah, then, how about we go to an art exhibition?"
"Art exhibition?"
"Yeah, there's an art exhibition by Banmu Ichiyusai in an art gallery nearby. He's a famous Japanese artist."
"… Okay."
Although Aili didn't have much interest in drawing — of course, if it was Ying Lili's manga, it would be a different story. But considering that this was a date, she naturally had to follow the girl's wishes. So, she nodded. Wakabayashi heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly brought Alice to the art gallery.
"Good! It's time for our Monster Gang to move out! We must succeed this time!! "
However, when Alice and Wakabayashi reached the overpass, a loud scream suddenly came from not far away. Alice raised an eyebrow when she heard the scream. She grabbed Wakabayashi and pulled her to a corner.
"What's wrong? Miss Alice? "
"Shh."
Alice whispered and gestured to Wakabayashi not to speak for the time being. Then, she looked in the direction of the scream and saw four young people standing on one side of the overpass. On the surface, they seemed to be just chatting, but if one took a closer look, they would discover that these people were the targets of Alice's investigation.
Lotus Umiya, Kaori Takasaki, Ryuji Sakamoto, and … who was that guy?
Apart from the three of them, there was another black-haired young man who looked to be about the same age as them. He was dressed very formally. His appearance looked a little slender, giving off an artistic vibe. The bad boy, Sakamoto Long Si, was also waving his fists in the air, looking very excited.
"Alright, let's go!!"
After the four of them turned around and left, Melody looked at Aili curiously.
"Who are they?"
"A member of the Heart Monster Bandit Group."
"Are they the bandit group you mentioned?"
Of course, Xi Jian Qin knew about this. However, most people accepted Ailey's explanation and thought that it was just a prank.
"That's right. The black shadows we saw around the castle that day should be them …"
Aili pondered in silence for a few moments before grabbing Melody's hand.
"By the way, Melody, are you interested in an unusual date?"
"… Eh?"
Thus, the original date to go shopping turned into a stalking operation. Ai Li and Rimi Koto quietly followed behind the four of them. From what Sakamoto Long Si said just now, it seemed like they were going to do something again. This was normal. From the surveillance footage, Ai Li knew that Sakamoto Long Si was very unhappy that she had stolen the spotlight from the Shida Duck incident. If they did not intend to stop, they would definitely want to make another big news. Now, it seemed that they were going to do something again.
The two of them followed Aili and Melody to … the venue of the Striped Eye Art Exhibition.
"They really know how to pick their targets."
Looking at this scene, Aili couldn't help but narrow her eyes. On the other hand, Xi was also more or less taken aback.
"Are the bandit group planning to target Mr. Striped Eye?"
"It seems so. After all, this artist has recently attracted a lot of attention in the art exhibition held on String God Island. If they target him, they'll definitely attract a lot of attention."
Ai Li said in a low voice and walked into the art gallery with Melody and Xi Jian.
Honestly speaking, Aili had zero interest in any of the art exhibitions in the art gallery. If it was a manga drawn by Erika or Mashiro, she might be interested in it. However, Aili had zero interest in abstract art that made her feel like an idiot. On the other hand, Xi saw that Kotoshi was completely engrossed in the paintings. She kept nodding as she walked forward.
Melody's expression became a little strange.
"What's wrong?"
Ailey didn't know how to appreciate the works of postmodern psychopaths who didn't have any nudity, but her observation skills were top-notch.
"Ah, sorry, how should I put it …"
Melody scratched her head in confusion when she heard Aili's question.
"Every painting here is great, but I keep feeling that something's wrong. I feel that the emotions expressed in every painting are very intense, and they're completely different. "
"Didn't the advertisement say that? A genius artist with a variety of painting styles? "
"Although that's the case, I still feel that these emotions aren't something that could be displayed by Sensei Banmu alone. After all, these emotions are so clear and passionate. If they're all gathered on one person …"
"So you're saying that these paintings aren't actually drawn by Banmu Jiza? That's interesting … Oh, there's something fun ahead. "
Aili suddenly noticed that there were many people gathered in the corridor next to the exhibition hall. Her curiosity was piqued. She walked out of the exhibition hall with Melody and looked ahead.
Following that, Aili saw hundreds and thousands of red letters pasted all over the exhibition hall. Just like before, the content was composed of words cut from newspapers and pieced together to form the content.
"You're a great sinner who has exhausted your talent, Banmu Jiza. You bully others and steal the ideas of your disciples. You're an artist who doesn't fear plagiarism. We've decided to make you confess to all your crimes. We'll take away your twisted desires and keep the 'Phantom' of the Monstrous Heart Bandits. "
"This, this is …!?"
Melody was dumbfounded when she saw the letters in front of her. Aili's lips curled up into a smile.
'This is really interesting.'
"Follow me."
At that moment, Aili saw Banmu Jiza, who was shouting angrily because of the notice letter. Not far behind him was the slender artistic man that Aili had seen before. He stole a glance at Banmu Jiza, then turned around and left. Aili hurriedly grabbed Melody's hand and stealthily led her around Banmu Jiza. They followed the artistic man to the emergency passage on the other side of the exhibition hall.
The other three members of the Monstrous Heart Bandits were also waiting for the artistic man there.
"Is that all?"
The artistic man looked at the three of them and asked. Gao Juanxing nodded.
"That's great. The article is really cool!"
Then, the black cat lying on Rinko Umiya also spoke.
"In this case, the treasure should have already appeared. The notice letter will be effective for about a day."
"Okay!!"
Sakamoto Ryushi clenched his fists again and shouted.
"Let's teach him a lesson!!!"
Under the watchful eyes of Aili and Melody, the four of them took out their mobile phones. The space around them suddenly began to distort. After a while, everything disappeared without a trace. In its place was a magnificent art gallery in the dark.
"This is … Shadow Time? They can actually enter this world outside of Shadow Time? "
Xi Jianyin exclaimed in astonishment. Ai Li covered her mouth and pulled her to the side. Then, the four men who had changed into bandit-like outfits quickly slipped into the magnificent art gallery in front of them.
"This is …"
"It should be the spiritual world of Banmu Jiza."
"So what are we going to do now? Miss Aili? "
Aili shook her head in response to Melody's curious question.
"We just have to watch."
"… Watch?"
"That's right …"
Aili briefly explained the research of "Cognitive Grammatology" to Xi Jian Ziyin before continuing.
"You should know by now that the three important research parts of Cognitive Hippocampus are the interaction between cognition and reality, how to change other people's cognition by changing the spiritual world, and how to artificially synthesize Persona. The Kirito Research Institute's plan to artificially synthesize Persona seems to have failed. Now I suspect that the bandits have probably obtained a way to change other people's cognition by changing the spiritual world. "
"Can they really do that?"
Xi saw that Musical Note was quite suspicious, while Aili simply shrugged.
"Who knows.
If Banmu Jiza really became famous by plagiarizing the works of its disciples … well, it's not surprising. After all, art itself is very subjective. You can see that there are many different emotions expressed between the paintings, but in my opinion, they're all the same messy patchwork of colors. "
Of course, if you want to discuss which painter's "fruit" is really cute, I won't feel sleepy anymore.
"So what are we going to do?"
"We just have to watch. I want to see how they change the spiritual world and cognition of other people. This will be a very interesting topic. And then … "
As she spoke, Allie reached out her hand and pulled out a gun from her pocket. Then, she silently installed a silencer.
"And then we'll talk about that."
