I'm in Detective Conan, and the system has appointed Batman.

Chapter 13 Security Mission: Dongdu Bank
"Uh, I walked over here. What's wrong?"

Chen En blinked, his innocent expression clearly visible.

He didn't know what was going on with these people.

Was he walking too quietly, or were these people simply not paying attention to footsteps nearby...?

When the Queen Celeste walked up behind Kaito Kuroba earlier, Kaito was startled.

Last night, when I walked behind Conan, he reacted strongly. Now, when I walk behind Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki, they react the same way.

That's so strange... The people of Beika Town are practically born with the ability to be knocked unconscious.

The kind that automatically hard-controls you for one second if you're detected flanking from behind.

"That's strange, I didn't hear any footsteps at all..."

Ran Mouri said in a low voice.

She turned her gaze to the young man, a master-level figure, who had appeared behind her without her noticing.

—Well, it looks familiar.

She wore simple clothes, had a striking face, and eyes that seemed to hold some secret.

"Ah, you're Batman!"

Before Ran Mouri could even remember who it was, Sonoko Suzuki had already shouted it out.

Ran Mouri was stunned.

...Batman? Isn't that a character from comic books?
She recalled her experience yesterday aboard the Queen Cerissa.

After being drugged by Phantom Thief Kid, she woke up outside the banquet hall, almost at the shore.

The boy seemed to be right there, but he was looking at the Tokyo docks in the distance.

Until the very end, she hadn't spoken a single word to the other person, and she knew nothing about this seemingly nickname, leaving her completely puzzled.

However, doubts remain.

Ran Mouri cautiously tugged at the hem of Sonoko's coat and whispered,
"Sonoko, don't do that. Isn't calling someone by a nickname a bit too hurtful?"

Huh? Really?

Sonoko Suzuki was taken aback.

However, she remembered that when Chen Engang first met her, he called himself Batman...

Hmm, does that mean only Chen En is allowed to call herself that, and she's not allowed to use it too?

I watched as two familiar high school girls began to whisper to each other.

Three question marks involuntarily appeared above Chen En's head.

What are you doing? What are you talking about?

I just came to ask for directions, do we really need to discuss this for so long?

And... wait, why is my system panel lit up?

With a thought, the system light screen, visible only to Chen En, immediately opened in front of him.

The content displayed on the system's light screen this time was quite concise and clear.

[A serious incident threatening Gotham City's safety has been detected nearby!]

As Batman, you have a duty to maintain order in Gotham City. Please arrive at the scene immediately and apprehend the criminal before they flee, or stop them from committing further crimes during their commission!

[Difficulty level: Medium. Completing this task will reward you with 50 points!]

We've been sent on a mission?

Chen En glanced at the contents of the light screen and let it close naturally.

That's why he wanted to get in touch with Conan.

Within Beika Town, if a serious incident [may], [is happening], or [has already happened] within a certain radius, the system will automatically generate a daily security mission with a reward.

There is no punishment for failing these security tasks.

Since even the real Batman couldn't stop every violent incident in Gotham City, the Batman handpicked by the system naturally wouldn't be subject to such stringent requirements.

“This location…” Chen En raised his head and looked in the direction the mission cursor was pointing.

Just then, he heard Ran Mouri scream.
"Oh no! I forgot to cash the check Dad asked me to cash!"

Chen En: ?
Do you guys really not consider me an outsider?
He turned to look at Ran Mouri, who then realized there was someone standing next to her and said somewhat apologetically,

"Excuse me, Mr. Batman... are you going to East Capital Bank?"

"I'm also going to Dongdu Bank. Shall I take you there?"

Chen En looked again in the direction the task cursor was pointing and asked in a low voice,
"Excuse me, Ms. Mori, where is the Toto Bank located? Could you please point it out to me?"

Before she could finish speaking, Sonoko Suzuki had already pointed out the location of the Toto Bank.

Sure enough, the direction where the Dongdu Bank Mihua Park branch was located was exactly the direction the security mission cursor was pointing!
Beika Town is a place of outstanding people and abundant resources, where robbing banks is commonplace.

This time, he just happened to run into it!
"Just give it a try."

Chen En muttered to himself.

He immediately ran towards the direction of Dongdu Bank.

He pressed the button on the bat-shaped storage belt at his waist and swiped it through the hidden compartment.

Suddenly, a conspicuous white coffee cup appeared out of thin air in his hand.

The hidden compartment automatically popped back in after the coffee cup appeared.

The Night Knight of Beika Town brought the coffee cup to his lips.

—This task is beyond Chen En's capabilities.

But Batman can, the real Batman can...

However, drinking the coffee cup in one gulp only has a one-minute effect.

If Chen En cannot use his Batman form to take down all the bank robbers within one minute.

Then, let alone saving others, he himself would be in danger.

therefore……

He needed to check out the situation at Dongdu Bank first before he could drink his coffee.

In most cases, one minute is enough for Batman to take down an ordinary criminal!
Watching Chen En's retreating figure as he ran towards Dongdu Bank.

Ran Mouri was somewhat surprised.

She stared blankly at her best friend beside her and asked,

"Mr. Batman seems to be in a hurry?"

Sonoko Suzuki blinked.

She touched her chin, displaying her formidable deductive reasoning skills as the queen of deduction.

Then he said,

"Batman in comics is always a millionaire with a company, so maybe he has some business dispute and needs to transfer money urgently?"

Of course, she didn't remember any Batman being Asian, let alone having a name that sounded like that of a mysterious Eastern superpower.

The second daughter of the Suzuki Group thought for a moment, then her eyes lit up.
"No matter what, we'll find out by following them, won't we?"

"Since you're going to pick up the check for Uncle anyway, Xiaolan, it's on your way!"

Moreover, she also wanted to see what this self-proclaimed Batman, Mr. Chen En, was really up to!
Her parents and sister always say that she has bad taste in men, and none of the boyfriends she's dated are good people.

This time, she's going to prove her judgment!
"Hmm, Xiaolan, let's go!"

Sonoko Suzuki grinned and pulled Ran Mouri along as they ran towards the East Capital Bank.

And some time after the two best friends left the volleyball hall.

The elementary school student, carrying a skateboard broken in two, looked up, slightly out of breath, and said...
"Let's go in and take a look..."

"Ran and Sonoko should still be inside, right?"
