Chapter 662 The Speedster?
Sizzle. Sizzle.

With the sound of electricity pulsating, the previously damaged radio miraculously resumed operation, playing its previous audio.

"This is Batman. There is an unknown number of bombs with astonishing weight inside the Ekoda Department Store..."

Batman?
Is there an unknown number of bombs with an astonishing weight inside the Ekoda Department Store?

A high school girl and a middle-aged office worker, who were picking out their favorite clothes, both looked up at the loudspeaker, a hint of surprise in their eyes.

Is this really true?
Is Batman just an urban legend?

Batman may indeed be active in other areas of Tokyo, but he has never been to the Efuta area before, which is no different from urban legend.

They were still somewhat skeptical.

After all, it's hard to believe that such an urban legend would suddenly appear inside a shopping mall, with rumors about a bomb.

If there really is a bomb.

So, the mall staff should have already appeared on the third floor and started evacuating the crowd, but they didn't see anything.

but.

They didn't completely deny the possibility, but decided to see how things went.

The girl's father pulled back the curtain of the clothing store and looked outside, only to find that the entire three floors of the mall were deserted; all the previous customers had vanished without a trace.

Upon seeing this, they were taken aback.

Could it be that what Batman said on the radio was true? Is there really a terrifying bomb inside the Ekoda Department Store?

Staff did evacuate the crowd.

Was it because their location was too remote that the staff thought there was no one there, so they simply ignored it?

"Dad, the broadcast just said that there are less than three minutes left before the bomb explodes..."

The high school girl frowned.

She felt uneasy.

However, she seemed relatively calm, which was completely different from how an ordinary high school girl would behave in this situation.

Her gaze fell on a conspicuous black cloth not far away. She subconsciously walked over, lifted the cloth, and what was inside was revealed.

That's a bomb.

Just by looking at it, you can tell it's a bomb with an enormous explosive yield, enough to engulf the entire third floor of the Eguta Department Store in flames in an instant.

"W-what?"

The girl's father was horrified.

He prided himself on having traveled all over the country and seen all kinds of storms, but he had never seen anything like this before.

The bombs really exist.

They even said the bomb was right next to them!
The girl took two steps back and said in a low voice.

Shall we leave here now?

Just as the girl's father was about to agree, he noticed the time displayed on his wristwatch.

It is 8:59 now.

do not know why.

The moment the girl's father saw the time on the wristwatch, a sense of dread washed over him, as if a great calamity was about to befall him.

But he didn't say anything.

They immediately led the girl toward the emergency exit, but they hadn't gone far when...

A figure appeared in sight.

The girl and her father were immediately stunned.

They stared in disbelief at the figure that appeared at the entrance to the emergency lane.

Because the figure looked too familiar.

batman.

One of the world's most famous detectives and superheroes, but his appearance differs from that in movies and comics.

The girl's father had not paid any attention to it.

But the girl had seen the news.

The suit worn by the real-world Batman in the news looks just like this — this is the real Batman.

Why are you still here?

Batman's voice came through.

He was just at the entrance of the emergency exit, and the next moment, he was standing in front of the girl and her father.

"There were less than twenty seconds left before the bomb exploded; it was too late to leave at that point."

As the words fell.

Batman ran quickly towards the bomb in the opposite direction from them. Hearing this, the girl and her father turned to look at Batman's back, shocked by his words.

Batman on the radio said it had been less than three minutes since the bomb detonated, but he certainly didn't say that less than three minutes meant less than thirty seconds...

Chen En quickly passed by the father and daughter.

He immediately recognized the high school girl's appearance; he was certain he had seen her or her information somewhere before.

But now is not the time to do that.

He ran quickly toward the bomb.

In his view, there was plenty of time; he could put the bomb inside his storage belt before it detonated.

Meanwhile, the timer on the time bomb began to count down, gradually approaching the final five seconds.

Five seconds.

The girl and her father, who were originally planning to leave, realized that they couldn't leave now, so they decided to stay and help Batman.

Four seconds.

Chen En quickly approached the bomb, only three steps away, when he heard an explosion and was startled.

three seconds.

A glass window on the third floor of a department store shattered instantly, producing a loud noise. Chen En reached for the bomb, preparing to insert it into his belt.

However, the bomb has disappeared.

two seconds.

The girl and her father, who were about to come to help, stopped instinctively when they saw Batman approaching the bomb, sensing a gust of wind.

Chen En suddenly lifted his cloak, shielding the two behind it to prevent the wind pressure from the high-speed movement of the unidentified object from knocking them away.

Last second.

Chen En raised his head and looked out the window.

The next moment, a violent explosion suddenly rang out in the sky over the Ekoda area, and the flames even slightly illuminated the sky over this region.

The bomb was taken away by something.

Moreover, it was lifted into the air in an instant, allowing the bomb to detonate high in the sky without harming anyone.

Even Chen En couldn't see clearly what or who had taken the bomb. No, it wasn't just that he couldn't see clearly.

He saw nothing.

A loud explosion was heard, and the bomb disappeared in the next moment. After a while, the sound of shattering glass came.

That thing moves faster than sound.

"A speedster?"

Chen En put down his cloak and said in a low voice.

He turned around and looked at the spot where the bomb had been placed, an area that was now clearly ravaged by strong winds.

Even the ground was covered in cracks.

All of this proves that something really did fly past at extremely high speed, causing the floor of the third floor of the mall to look like this.

"That kind of guy..."

Chen En frowned.

What measures should be taken?

How can one truly capture or defeat a ruthless speedster?
