(A/N: I really don't have anything to say, except that you know what'll go down in this part of the game's plot. ;)
Lol, one of my personal favorite scenes, tbh. And the anime managed to make it better somehow. XD
So without any further ado, BUCKLE THE FUCK UP!!! 'CUZ HERE WE GO!!!)

Opening

------Evening: Shibuya's Station------

Like all good things must come to an end, the fun time the group had at Ginza eating sushi was over. It was just as Ann stated before, they did have their sushi like kings; the taste was simply beyond description which momentarily led them to forget everything that's been happening. Obviously, that wasn't the first time any of them had sushi in their lives, but something about that experience stood out to them... perhaps it was the good company? Or the fact that Yusuke wolfed it all down like he hadn't eaten a decent meal since forever? Well, that shouldn't be surprising given how slender and thin-built he was. They left the restaurant full and satisfied after such a good meal, walking in Shibuya's train station to head home and go their separate ways, still complementing the extraordinary taste of the sushi they ate. They truly wanted to savor the flavor for a bit longer, and that restaurant really lived to the reputation it had--the price wasn't bad either so that sure was a bonus.

And just when they thought that the day would end perfectly after that celebration...

"Niijima-san! What are you doing here?"

The ears of the thieves perked up, thus they turned to the source of that sudden call, seeing the famous high school detective approaching them.

Goro Akechi...

"Akechi-kun..." Makoto looked at him with slightly wide eyes.

"Akechi...?" Ryuji mumbled angrily.

"You're the ones from the TV station... could it be that you're friends of Niijima-san?" Akechi asked.

"That's right." Ren replied.

"Do you know this guy?" Yusuke questioned.

"It's nice to meet you. My name is Akechi. Glad to make your acquaintance, Yusuke Kitagawa."

"How do you know my name?"

"Well, because I'm a psychic, of course."

"........." Emiko face-palmed her forehead comically.

"Haha, I'm only joking. In truth, I'm a rookie detective. You're a former pupil of Madarame, right? I have actually just recently joined the investigation team looking into the Phantom Thieves. Did you see that Medjed has declared war on them?"

"War...?" Ryuji repeated.

"Their website was updated just a moment ago." Akechi added.

"For real?!" Ryuji gasped while pulling his phone out, "English again..."

"........?" Having her interest piqued by that statement, Emiko grabbed her device as well.

"Wait, what...?!" Ann pulled her own phone out as well.

"What's it say?!"

"Hm? Why do you seem so agitated?" Akechi queried.

"Oh, um..." Ann trailed.
