Synopsis

Many incidents have occurred in town and behind them all lurks a dark shadow... Now it's up to a thief of justice to expose it all! That thief's name is Phantom Thief Rousseau!

Rousseau is famous for his skill in disguises which is on a par with Lupin and Twenty Faces but, his true identity is just an elementary school boy! With his disguises and super reflexes, he is now on the move once again!

One day, something big happened. A case that involved the classmate that Rousseau loves, Seine! It's time for Phantom Thief Rousseau to get on the case!

In school, a detective named Pocchari was getting a lot of attention. He was a famous detective who could solve any case in the blink of an eye. Even Rusou's friends Shinbun and Pochi thought they were mesmerized by the presence of the detective.

Until the day he appeared, Phantom Thief Rousseau was the popular one but, now his image was fading and Rusou was no longer interested in continuing his role.

But there was something odd about that detective Pocchari. That plump body, those suspicious eyes and the large sums of money he earned simply wasn't normal.

It was then that one day, Pocchari waited outside the school gates to kidnap Seine! Now Seine's been caught into trouble.

Glaring at Pocchari, Rousseau knew that he had something to do with Seine's disappearance. And so, it was time for him to take up his role again to reveal Pocchari's evil deeds!

So what is Pocchari's true identity and what is to become of Seine-chan?

???? [Continue]
???? [Start New Game]
??? [Extra]

Selecting Continue will give the options, "Load a Saved File" and "Select a Chapter".

Starting a new game will allow you to choose to play the game in normal mode or easy mode. Easy mode will give you guidelines when drawing disguises while normal doesn't.

The following is a list of options that appear in the in-game menus:

Pressing Select will give you the following options:

Difficulty: Normal / Easy
Disguise Cutscenes: Long / Short

Finally, pressing R will allow you to go back to view previous scenes during the game while L will move forward. You can also fast forward scenes by holding your stylus down on the circle that appears in the bottom-right corner if you've seen the scene already. Very handy for timed situations and when the Fast Forward setting is set to Continuous!


4.0 Being a Phantom Thief

The most important ability a phantom thief must have is to make himself disappear when he needs to.

Before you can disguise yourself as someone or something, you will need its data first which is usually collected by taking a picture. This is done by visiting the appropriate place and tapping the camera icon that appears in the top-right hand corner. Once Rousseau's taken a picture of an object or person, you'll receive a card which you use to help disguise yourself later or solve puzzles.

Once you have the required data, you must tap the Disguise Icon that appears in the top-right corner. You then select a picture to disguise yourself as.

After you've selected a picture, you must then start drawing it using the provided tools. The screen looks similar to the one below:

Following the grid lines, you must copy the sample picture on the top screen as accurately as possible to complete your disguise. Once you've completed it, a rating will be given from A to C. Depending on how well you match the sample picture, you may draw suspicion from Rousseau's enemies which could result in a game over. But usually it's fairly easy to match so not too much to worry about.

There will be times when you may freely draw your own disguise without the need for any data.

While Rousseau's disguise is his first line of stealth, you can also encounter people who want to confirm your identity. At this point, you'll have to answer a series of questions which can also increase the suspicion meter if you get the answers wrong.

Besides disguising, Rousseau must also overcome various obstacles during his activities such as security pads and guards as well as gathering information. When being chases by guards, you can make Rousseau use the environment he's in to get away such as tapping on a ceiling light. You know when you have to look for such escape routes when Rousseau's Icon appears in the bottom-right corner.

Rusou Kaidou

An elementary five student who is energetic and has a strong sense of justice. Normally he acts just like any other elementary student but behind that face, he is actually the Phantom Thief Rousseau. Of course, he keeps it a secret.

Rousseau's grandfather was the legendary Phantom Thief Million Mask that shook the world.
He too was a thief of justice and people everywhere were grateful to him.
It's been near 20 years since he's disappeared now but, his brave tales still live on as novels and on television.

Phantom Thief Rousseau
Rousseau is a thief that only steals from the bad and even then, he only takes back the items the bad guys have stolen in some evil deed.

He just began his role but rumours about him are already spreading around town slowly.

Although Rousseau is swift and full of energy, he's a very absent minded person too. He always gets himself into a pinch and his clumsiness makes him fail in reaching his goal sometimes. But this is where his great reflexes and will to win helps him out.

When Rousseau is on the move, he changes into his yellow suit. On it he has various gadgets attached; on his arm is a communicator, there's a glove that can send out smoke, a case on his back that carries various items such as a mask that helps him with his disguises and a pair of night vision goggles on his head that also acts as a camera.

Million Mask
Rousseau's grandfather, 65 years old.

One Eyed Tatsu
A security guard who never lets anything suspicious pass him and so far, his record remains unbroken. Even though he's a security guard, he dresses up like some Western cowboy movie.

Mmmph! Ugh...

Pocchari:

  • Talk about the car.*

Rousseau:
Give me back, Seine-chan! I saw you putting her in your car!

Pocchari:
Shut up! Yells at Rousseau.

Pocchari:
You're so persistent. I'm going to call the police.

???:
Hold it right there!!

Rousseau:

Hold it right there!!

Over here! I'm over here!

Pocchari:
Well, if it isn't Fushimi Nanao-san.

Gessori:
How dare you treat that girl that way!
I bet you're up to no good again.
You fraudster! You have no shame!
My body ended up this way because you tricked me.
You're pulling the strings behind everything!

You approach people.
Saying you'll help them find out about anything.
But it's all just an act.
I was a fool to get tricked by you.
And I even had to pay you a fee of 100 million yen!

Now I'm in debt.
Living a life paying it all back.
I can't even feed my two children, Mikio and Edako.
Now I'm all gessori (skinny).
It's all your fault!

Pocchari:
Shut up! Blows Gessori and Rousseau away.

Where's the proof?
If you're going to talk nonsense, go do it in your sleep!

Gessori:
Why you...

I won't let you get away!

Pocchari knocks Gessori away.

Pocchari:
Hmph!

???:
Hold it right there!!

Inukai:
What's all the commotion?

Pocchari:
Ah, investigator Kaiinu. You have good timing.

Inukai:
It's not "Kaiinu", it's "Inukai"!

Pocchari:
My apologies, investigator Kamase Inu.

Inukai:
It's not "Kamase Inu" either! It's "Inukai Kamase"!

  • Tap Inukai.

Inukai:
Now tell me what happened.

  • Tap Rousseau.

Rousseau:
This man forced a girl into his car.

Inukai:
What? Is that true?!

Rousseau:
It's true. Check the car.

Inukai:
I'm going to check your car.

Pocchari:
I don't mind. It's all just a mistake.

Inukai goes check the inside of the car.

Inukai:
There she is!

You mean this thing?

Doll:
Hi, I'm Mikarin.

Gessori and Rousseau stares in disbelief.

Pocchari:
Ah yes, that's a present for my daughter.

I thought so.

You see this person here? He's a famous detective.
He won't kidnap anyone.

Rousseau:
That's crazy! I saw it with my own eyes!
Check it again!!

After handcuffing Gessori, Inukai turns to Rousseau.

Inukai:
You, go home.
It's not good to lie.

Rousseau:
Whaaaat?!

Inukai:
Pocchari-san, I'm very sorry for what just happened.

Pocchari:
Good work.

Gessori is driven off in a patrol car.

Gessori:
You've got it all wrong! He's the bad guy -geso.

Rousseau:
I'll remember this.

I, Phantom Thief Rousseau is going to expose that dark shadow...
Behind that big fat body of yours!

  • Opportunity to save (Yes/No).

Chapter 2: Phantom Thief Rousseau on the Move!

Next day.

Rousseau:
Morning.
Hey, what's wrong? You look like you're lacking some energy today, Pochi.

Pochi:
I'm Yasutomo, not Pochi!

Rousseau:
Maybe I was wrong about the lacking energy part.

  • Tap on Shinbun.

Shinbun:
Pochi told you yesterday that...
His father asked Pocchari to find a notebook, didn't he?

He has to pay him a fee of 3 million yen.

Rousseau:
3 million yen?

  • Tap on Pochi.

Pochi:
He only looked for an hour.
I can't believe we have to pay him 3 million yen.

Mum's so ticked off.
She's asking, "Why did you ask him to help you something as simple as that?!"

Dad said he signed a contract to pay 3 million yen.
He showed it to us.

We looked at it and next to the 3...
There were tiny zeroes...

Mum got really worked up after that.
She said, "it's because you don't pay attention enough!"

Then dad started fighting back.
Saying they should just break their marriage. Mum then said...

Rousseau:
Hey, how long is he going to go on for?

Pochi:
Kaidou, marry my mum please!

Rousseau:
Whaaaaa!

Pochi:
If they really breakup their marriage, mum's going to be all alone.

Rousseau:
It has nothing to do with me.

Pochi:
My mum loves you, you know.
She's always talking about you.

She says you're pretty bold and cute.

Rousseau:
He's not admiring me at all!

Pochi:
We're friends right? Marry her!

Rousseau:
Don't go crazy! Calm down, Pochi!!

Pochi:
I'm Yasutomo! Not Pochi!

Rousseau:
That cooled him.

That Pocchari...
How many people has he sacrificed already?

Class begins.

Chaba:
Morning.

Everyone take your seats and those that aren't here, raise your hand.

Rousseau:
How can they raise their hand?

???:
Sir, Seine-chan isn't here.

Rousseau:
Seine-chan...
Damn. I knew it. She didn't get back home last night.

I have to go save her!

Chaba:
Hey Kaidou, where are you going.

Flaming Regent!

I won't let you behave as you please in class!

Now we'll start the class. Turn to page 21 of your textbooks.

Rousseau:
Damn it. Now's not the time for that...
Seine-chan's in danger...

  • Tap on Shinbun in front, twice.

Shinbun:
I wonder what's wrong with Seine-chan?
She didn't say she was going to take the day off.

  • Tap on Shinbun again.

Shinbun:
Doesn't that frame above the teacher look loose?
It'll hit him right on the head!

I heard someone got hit by a vase once.
It got knocked over by the wind.

There's no wind in the classroom just now, though.

Rousseau tries to blow the picture frame down.

Shinbun:
....What are you doing?

Rousseau:
Nothing. Just thought I'd try to blow it down.

  • Tap the picture frame then blow into the mic a few times until it falls down.

???:
Sensei! Are you all right?

Rousseau:
It really fell down.

I'm sorry, Sensei.
Let me go for Seine-chan's sake!

...In another place.

Rousseau:
Right check.
Left check.

Sign:
Private Property.

Rousseau:
This is Phantom Thief Rousseau's hideout.

Rousseau changes into his suit.

Rousseau:
Here comes Phantom Thief Rousseau!

I have to hurry to Seine-chan's house first.
I'm sure Pocchari will be there.

Kawamoto Residence

Pocchari:
I heard about your little girl being kidnapped...

Seine's Father:
How did you-! Not even the police knows about that.

Pocchari:
The ransom's 1 billion yen, correct?

Seine's Father:
Mmmm...

Pocchari:
Leave it to detective Pocchari.
Give me 10 million yen.

Seine's Father:
10 million yen?!

Pocchari:
That's better than paying 1 billion yen, no?

  • Tap on Seine's dad.

Rousseau:
Seine's dad is going to get tricked!

Don't let him trick you.
That Pocchari's just a villain posing as a detective!!

He pretends to solve cases that he creates.
Then he tricks people into giving him the reward!

Seine's Father:
Who's there!
How dare you enter people's home like that!

Pocchari:
Come on out!

Rousseau:
I'm the Phantom Thief Rousseau.

Pocchari:
Rousseau... Ah, that chondro kid.

Rousseau:
Grrrr.

  • Tap on Seine's father.

Rousseau:
Lots of people have already been tricked by him.
Don't sign any contracts with him.

Seine's Father:
But my daughter...

Rousseau:
It's all right. I'll save your daughter.

  • Tap on Pocchari.

Pocchari:
Hey you, chondro boy. You mustn't talk nonsense.
I'm a very famous detective you know.

Kawamoto-san, don't listen to this boy.
You can't trust on him.

Rousseau:
Oh really... Then who can he trust?

Pocchari:
Well then, maybe if you can gather 3 adults that Kawamoto-san knows to proof I'm tricking him.

Seine's Father:
That's impossible! How can he do that?

  • He's right. It's impossible.

That's OK. *

Rousseau:
That's OK. I just have to gather 3 people that he knows right?

Ojisan, I'll go find them. Meanwhile, don't sign anything with him.

Laters.

Seine's Father:
Wait!

He's gone...

Pocchari:
There's no way he can gather 3 people who can prove I'm trying to trick him. He's only a kid after all.

Outside...

Rousseau:
I can do it.

I just need to know their faces and then disguise myself.

I'll disguise myself as Kawamoto-san's friends then expose the crimes he's done.

Seine's dad will believe me.
Just watch me, Pocchari.

First, I have to find the 3 people, then I have to take their photos.

Lets try looking around the nearby store first.

  • Now it's time to do some investigation. Tap the girl to bring up the subjects menu.

    Ask about her.

He's that handsome, cool man, isn't he?

I'd like to have a boyfriend or a lover, you know.

Rousseau:
No one asked you that.

  • Now you've found one of Kawamoto's friends.
  • Pick the new first subject ??????? to learn more about Kawamoto's friends.

Miyuki:
Friends? You mean friends of Kawamoto-san? Well...

Ah, that's right.
That Ramen shop owner gets along with him well.

  • Before you go, tap the camera icon to take a picture of Miyuki. She'll wonder what that shutter noise was.
  • Tap the Rousseau Icon and select ??. Then select ????? to get to the Ramen store and the store owner welcomes Rousseau.
  • Tap the store owner then select ??? to order some Ramen.
  • Blow into the mic a few times to let the owner know you're eating the Ramen.
  • After he thanks you for eating at his place, tap him again to bring up the menu.
  • Choose the middle option to ask about Seine's dad.

Koshi:
Kawamoto? Of course I know him.
He and I are very close friends.

I'm like the noodle and he's the soup in Ramen. Don't you see the bond?

Rousseau:
I don't think I want to.

  • Now take his picture and pick the new first subject ??????? again to find more of Kawamoto's friends.

Koshi:
Other friends of Kawamoto? Lets see now, who else were there...

I know! Onigiri's one.
He was at the plaza that's in front of the station just a moment ago.

He's lost his job so he's really gloomy now.
It's as if he's been engulfed by darkness.

I'm not lying you know. It's true.

Rousseau:
He's making too much of it.

Dark Onigiri shaped face appears at the station.

Rousseau:
Woah, he's really dark!

  • Tap Onigiri twice and again, speak to him about Seine's Father first by picking the middle option.

Onigiri:
Kawamoto-san? I know him well.
We were close friends during our school days, I'm sure.

I always hung out together with him and the Ramen store owner.

They're like a Ramen's noodle and soup while I'm the Onigiri sitting by the side...

Now I'm just an unemployed man...

Rousseau:
Uh oh! Now he's completely caught up in the dark!

  • If you speak to him about the new topic as usual, he'll point you towards the park.
  • Try taking his picture and you'll find it's too dark to be of any use. So now we've found 2 of Kawamoto's friends, lets go to the park for the third. Go to ?? in the bottom right menu then select ??.
  • Tap the kid and he'll ask Rousseau to play monster with him. Select the first option to play with him. You'll find that Rousseau isn't much of a monster.
  • Select ?? to change places again and choose the last option to return to the station.
  • Tap the monster poster to the right, take its picture then return to the park.
  • Now disguise yourself as a monster and play with the boy. Now Rousseau's too scary. He runs off, dropping his torch.
  • Return back to the station and tap Onigiri once to zoom in on his face. Now go to ???? (Items), ??? (Inventory) and use the torch. Now you can take his photo clearly.
  • Return to Kawamoto's home by picking the first destination.

Back at Kawamoto's residence.

Rousseau:
Sorry I kept you waiting.

I've brought the 3 people as promised.

Pocchari:
Wh- What? You couldn't have!!

  • Save your game here in case you fail the next part.

Rousseau:
Person number one!!

  • Now disguise yourself as each of the 3 people in turn by tapping their photos, picking ?? and then drawing them.
  • Note that there will be a suspicion meter that will measure how bad your disguises are. Once it's 100%, you lose the game.

Pocchari breaks out into a heavy sweat.

Pocchari:
I can't believe he really found 3 people...

Rousseau:
Well, Pocchari-san?

Pocchari:
This can't be... This can't be...

After Pocchari lets out some steam.

Pocchari:
Kawamoto-san, I don't care what you think but, I'm the only one that cares about your daughter's life here.

Seine:
Papa! Help- Mmph!!

Seine's Father:
Seine!!

Pocchari:
Will you pay the kidnapper 1 billion yen or will you pay me 10 million yen... What shall it be?

I'll give you some time to think and come again tomorrow.
Goodbye...

Here comes Pocchari~ Pocchari solves the case~

Seine's Father:
Grrr... How dare he...

Rousseau:
Don't worry, Ojisan.
I'll save her.

Seine's Father:
...Those 3 people were just you in disguise, weren't they?

Rousseau:
Oh, you saw through it.

Seine's Father:
...I've heard rumours about the Phantom Thief Rousseau.
A famous phantom who is a master of disguises...

And most important of all, he loves justice.

Rousseau:
I am honoured by your praise.

Seine's Father:
After my daugther got kidnapped, I done a little investigating about you and Pocchari.

You know Fushimi Nanao-san, don't you?

Rousseau:
Fushimi... Ah, you mean Gessori-san.

Seine's Father:
It seems he went after Pocchari... And found out his secret residence.

But yesterday, he got arrested by the police. It's going to be impossible to get that little information from him.

But maybe you can do it...
Can you save my daughter?

Rousseau:
Leave it to me. I, the Phantom Thief Rousseau...

Will get Seine-chan out of there.

  • Opportunity to save (Yes/No)

Chapter 3: Scouting the Police Station!

At an unknown place.

Seine:
Where... Oh, that's right...
I was kidnapped...

It wasn't a dream..
Help me... Papa, Mama...

Phantom Thief Rousseau...

Rousseau:
Gulp...

Police Station

  • Try entering the station by tapping the doorway and tapping ??, Enter and Rousseau will suggest disguising himself first.
  • Select the Freeform Disguise option and then draw your own disguise. Notice there's a neck at the bottom and that your outline must not have a hole in it. Once you're disguised, choose ?? again and enter the building.

At the reception.

  • First, check the map on the pillar to the left. You'll learn where the waiting area and toilet is.
  • Now tap the man sitting behind the counter to talk to Pochi's dad. Take a photo of him then talk to him about the cells by choosing the third option, ??????. You'll learn that they're waiting for some Ramen.
  • Leave the building by selecting the last destination.
  • Outside, tap the Disguise Icon and use the Ramen owner as your disguise. Return inside the station for a hilarious encounter.
  • The real Koshi had just finished delivering his Ramen and he catches sight of Rousseau. He questions who Rousseau is and for a moment, Rousseau copies everything Koshi says, claiming that he's also the Ramen store owner. Eventually, Koshi decides to ask him a few questions to confirm who he really is.

    I'm from the curry store.
    I'm from the Ramen store. *
    I'm from the Soba store.

    What's your name?

    Koshi *
    Mushi
    Hoshi

    What did I just finish doing?

    Taking a walk.
    Turning myself in.
    Delivery. *

    Noodles are what?

    Pocchari.
    Mocchiri.
    ShikoShiko. *

  • After answering the questions correctly, Koshi will be confused, thinking he himself is the fake Koshi. Rousseau tells him to get back to the shop to think about who he really is.
  • Now speak to Pochi's dad about the forth subject, ?????? again. This time he says he let you in if you're a suspect. Maybe you can find a poster of one or something.
  • Leave the building and check the bulletin board to the right. Inspect the poster and take a picture of the suspect. Now disguise yourself as him and enter the station again.
  • This time, it's Pochi's dad who asks you questions.

    What's your name?

    Han Goroushi *
    Mina Goroushi
    Nama Goroushi

    How old are you?

    20 Years Old
    30 Years Old
    40 Years Old *

    Where were you born?

    Okayama
    Hiroshima *
    Yamakuchi

    What have you done?

    Groping
    Theft *
    Murder

  • And so, Rousseau is jumping with joy hearing that Pochi's dad was going to lock him up. He's taken into the cell where he finds Gessori.

Rousseau:
Hello.

Gessori:
New arrival?

Rousseau:
I finally get to see you, Gessori-san.

Gessori:
My name's Fushimi. How rude -Geso!

Rousseau:
Tada!

Gessori:
Wait! You're...? -Geso!

Rousseau:
They usually call me Phantom Thief Rousseau.

Gessori:
Rousseau's a kid? -Geso.

So what are you doing here? -Geso.

  • Snap his picture and then ask him about Pocchari's secret residence.

    Ask about Gessori.
    Ask about Pocchari.
    Ask about the secret residence *

Rousseau:
I heard you know about Pocchari's secret residence.

Could you tell me where it is?

Gessori:
Of course! -Geso.

Rousseau:
Thanks, I know where it is now.

  • Now tell him you're out to catch Pocchari.

    Ask about Gessori.
    Ask about Pocchari. *
    Ask about the secret residence.

Rousseau:
I'm out to catch Pocchari.
I'm going to reveal all the crimes he's committed.

That way, you too will be able to get out of here.

Gessori:
But both you and I are locked up...
You won't be able to get out to catch him like this -Geso.

Rousseau:
Don't worry, I have an idea.

  • Change into Pochi's dad, Inukai.

Gessori:
You've changed your looks -Geso! Is this your disguising skill? -Geso

Rousseau:
So what am I going to do with this disguise on.

Heeey!! Come here a moment!

Guard:
What's wrong? Huh?

Guard recognises the investigator.

Rousseau:
Who cares about that!!
I got locked in by mistake.

Open up.

Guard:
Right away.

Rousseau gets out of the cell.

Rousseau:
Thanks.

Guard:
No no, it was all my fault, sir.

Rousseau:
Well, leave the rest to me, Gessori-san.

Gessori:
Wait! -Geso

Take this this you -Geso!

Rousseau:
Is this bone yours?

Gessori:
Stop fooling around!

It's something I found during my investigation -Geso.
I'm sure it'll come in handy! -Geso.

Rousseau:
Thanks, I'll take it with me.

Gessori:
It's up to you now -Geso, -Gesoooo!!

  • Opportunity to save (Yes/No).

Chapter 4: Phantom Thief vs Famous Detective?

???:
Hello... Ah, Mr. President.
Your Bottakuri selling methods really work!
They're evil and simply the best!

Now we're going to get our big payment tomorrow.
We're at the point of arranging one billion yen.

Kidnapping is so profitable.

But now we have a slight problem.
Phantom Thief Rousseau... Do you know him?
He's always in our way... I should take care?

Well then, lets kill Rousseau.
That way there will be nothing to stop Mr. President's business...

Mr. President, you're the Bottakuri (ripoff) and I'm Pacchari.
What, I'm getting boring? Stop my nonsense?

...I'm sorry. Well, that's all.

So, Phantom Thief Rousseau...
This will be interesting...

Be alert of intruders.

Guard:
Yes, sir!

Pocchari:
We have special security measures set in this place to guard our Bottakuri business affairs.
Lets see how good you really are.

Outside the mansion.

Rousseau:
If what Gessori-san told me is correct, this should be Pocchari's secret residence...

Wait for me, Seine-chan.
I'm coming to save you.

Wait...

There's a dog there!

  • Use the bone with the dog and it'll fall asleep. Tap it and take a photo then go inside the mansion.

Inside the mansion.

Rousseau:
Here I am for Seine-chan.

Where have I seen this all before?

Guards:
It's Rousseau! He got in!

Rousseau:
Oh no, they caught me already.

Guards:
Stop, Rousseau!

Rousseau:
As if I will!

  • Just like Rousseau's dream earlier, tap the light on the ceiling.

Rousseau:
See ya!

Guards:
You're not getting away!

Rousseau:
Oh man!

Oh yeah, this is just like the dream I had yesterday!

If it is then... Maybe...
I'll get a kiss from Seine-chan...

Wait for me, Seine-chan!

Guards:
Over there!
After him!

Rousseau runs into a dead end again.

Rousseau:
Oh no!
I knew it would be a dead end.

Guard:
He's a trapped rat!

  • Again, just like Rousseau's dream earlier, tap the guard and disguise yourself.

Rousseau:
Disguise Complete!

Guards:
Give it up, Rousseau!

Guard A:
Huh?

Guard B:
He's not here!

Guards stare at the disguised Rousseau.

Guard A:
Man, now's not really the time but...

Guard B:
You look cool!

Guard A:
By the way, you seen Rousseau?

Rousseau:
Nope.

Guard B:
Alright!

Guard A:
Lets check the other places!

Guards run off.

Rousseau:
Heheh, I'm too good! That went well.

Now then...

I'm sure that Seine-chan is around here somewhere.

Next up... I think I'm going to be quite a pinch.

Guards come running.

Guards:
There he is!

Guards:
This way!

Rousseau:
I knew it! I'm surrounded!!

What should I do?

  • Again, do the same as the dream. Tap the window and disguise yourself as it.

Rousseau:
Disguise complete!

Will this work?

Guards:
Huh? Rousseau's disappeared!

Guard A:
He was here a moment ago!

Guard B:
Where'd he go??

Guards check the window.

Guard A:
He didn't go through the window!

Guard B:
Where could he have disappeared to!

Guards:
Damn it!

Find him!

He won't get away!

Guards run off.

Rousseau:
Phew... That was close~

Rousseau finds a door.

Roussea:
Ah! Here it is!

  • Like the dream, tap the security pad next to the door. But this time, you have to tap the orange hint at the top, "If ??? walks, you'll bump into a post." and then find something to match it.
  • Move to the first destination, in front of the sculpture ????. Tap it and take a picture of it.
  • Return to the inner door, ??? which is the third destination. Tap the security pad once then tap the Disguise Icon. Now choose the dog photo you took earlier and draw it. Tap the input ?? button and the door will open.

Rousseau:
Ah! It opened!

Now if this goes like my dream then Seine-chan should...

Seine-chan, I'm here to save you!!
This time, I'm going to get a kiss from Seine-chan too...

Huh?

...What the hell's this?

Robot:
I am the security robot.
Toosanzoh No. 1.

Rousseau:
"Toosanzoh"? "Tousanzo"... As in "I won't let you pass"...

What a rubbish name.

Toosanzoh No. 1:
Hey! You figured it out!

Anyway, you're not getting pass.
Activating face recognition.

Rousseau:
Woah!!

Robot stares at Rousseau.

Rousseau:
Woah!!

Toosanzoh No. 1:
Unrecognized! Unrecognized!

Intruder Alert! Intruder Alert!
Attacking.

Rousseau:
Uh-oh!

Ow! Ow!

This is no good. I better withdraw for now.

Back outside the room.

Rousseau:
People can get hurt you know.
What a horrible robot.

  • Now disguise yourself using the photo of the Pocchari statue you took earlier.

Rousseau:
Alright! Lets try it now.

Hello.

Robot:
I am the security robot.
Toosanzoh No. 1.

Rousseau:
I know.

Robot:
Activating face recognition.

Face recognized, Pocchari-sama.
Please step right in.

  • Tap the mallets on the ground to pick one up then use it to destroy the robot. Then go into the door behind it.

Rousseau:
This time, it has to be Seine-chan...

Seine-chan... I'm here to save you.

Seine:
Ah...

Eh...

Kyaaaaa!

Rousseau:
Huh? Why?

Damn! She's scared of my disguise!
She won't come anywhere near me to kiss me.

What should I do?

  • Choose to change disguise because you can't let her see Rousseau's true identity.

    Take off disguise.
    Change disguise. *

  • Now use the free disguise feature to draw whatever you like.

Rousseau:
So how about this? Now do you believe I'm wearing a disguise?

Seine:
You're...

Rousseau:
I'm the thief of justice, Phantom Thief Rousseau.
Your papa asked me to come get you out.

Seine:
Rousseau-san, it's so strange...
This is only the first time we ever met yet, I feel like I've met you before.

Rousseau:
(So cute.) (Heart thumps.)

Seine:
Your hand!!

Are you hurt?

Rousseau:
Ah, must have been those mallets earlier.

Seine:
Take off your glove.

Rousseau:
Huh?

Seine bandages Rousseau's finger.

Seine:
There you go.
You'll be OK with that plaster on.

Oh, and I have to give my thanks.

Rousseau:
Give thanks?!
Here it comes-------!!

Seine:
Thank you very much. (Bows)

Rousseau:
Huh?

Seine:
Hmmm?

Rousseau:
Ah, nothing.

Pocchari:
That's as far as you go...

Rousseau:
Pocchari!! When did you...

Pocchari:
I never thought you would make it this far to be honest. You surprised me.

But this is as far as you go. Lets end it here.

I'm still in the middle of my 1 billion yen job after all.

Rousseau:
Seine-chan, I have a favour to ask.

I'm going to draw their attention.
You make use of that chance to get out of the room.

Then go contact your papa and the police.

Seine:
...I understand.

  • Just for fun, tap Seine first.

Rousseau:
Ah!! Look, there's a cute girl over there!

Silence.

Damn... It didn't work.

Seine:
I'm kind of angry for some reason.

  • There are other stupid little moves such as shouting out there's a UFO outside the window or the chandelier's going to fall.
  • Tap Pocchari's statue to create the diversion now.

Pocchari:
Ah-!! That's expensive!!

Rousseau:
Now!!

Seine:
Hai!

Pocchari:
Damn! Don't let her get away!

Rousseau:
Hold it!! I'm going to break this!!

Pocchari:
Aaah! Don't do it---

Rousseau:
Well then, Pocchari-san...

It's time we finished this.

Pocchari:
Indeed. Give me your best shot.

  • After Rousseau explains how to "fight", select the first option once you're ready. What you have to do to win is draw a face that will confuse Pocchari's subordinates. Obviously this will be statue picture you took earlier. As this is a boss battle, the accuracy required will be raised a little higher. If you fail, the damage bar below will fill up a little.
  • Once you have it right, the guards won't be able to tell the difference and Pocchari will start sweating. At this point, use the mallet again and Rousseau will divert the enemies' attention before hitting Pocchari on the head. A lump grows on his head and the guards jump on him.

Guards:
This one's Rousseau!!
His head's shaped differently!!

Pocchari:
Hey, wait!
I'm the real Pocchari...

What are you doing!
I'm the real Pocchari!

Inukai:
Hold it right there! Don't move!!

Pocchari, I arrest you under the suspicion of kidnapping!

Pocchari:
I can't believe I'm arrested...

Seine:
Hmmm? Where's Rousseau?

A window smashes.

Seine:
Rousseau-san.

Rousseau:
I'm leaving the rest to you, Investigator Inukai.
I've carried out my promised with Seine's papa.

Seine-chan...

We'll meet again!!

Seine's Father:
Phantom Thief Rousseau... He's quite a character.

Seine:
Rousseau.

The next day.

???:
It's out! It's out, it's out!!

Rousseau:
What's
