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

...To confirm something?

A hint of surprise appeared in Matsumoto Kiyonaga's eyes.

He had no idea what Batman needed to confirm with him.

However, he naturally had no reason to refuse this righteous ally. So he simply waved his hand and said in a firm and sincere voice.

"Ask away, I'll tell you everything I know."

Upon hearing this, in the blink of an eye, the distance between Batman and him instantly shrank.

Just a moment ago I was by the window, and now I'm standing next to the hospital bed.

The incredible speed caused Matsumoto Kiyotaka's pupils to contract involuntarily, and a look of shock flashed through his mind. He had never imagined that Batman's speed would be so inhuman.

The next instant, Batman reached out his hand, his voice low and hoarse.

"I need to confirm whether your face is real."

Among the black-clad pursuers, Ireland chose to disguise himself as Kiyonaga Matsumoto and infiltrate the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to conduct an investigation.

Even though the plot of the Darkest Nightmare movie has been completely disrupted, Ireland might still disguise himself as Kiyohiro Matsumoto and be indicted by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, just like in the original movie.

He needed to confirm whether the Matsumoto Kiyonaga in front of him was the real deal.

Fortunately, confirming whether someone in Conan's world has disguised themselves is not difficult; all you need to do is reach out, grab the person's hair, and pull hard.

If it were a disguise mask, it would be torn off immediately.

Even a master of disguise like Vermouth and Phantom Thief Kid would not escape the same fate if treated this way.

He watched as Batman's hand almost instantly reached towards his head.

Matsumoto Kiyonaga couldn't help but feel a sense of crisis.

This wasn't for any other reason than the unique sense of crisis that a veteran police officer possesses.

Judging from the speed Batman just demonstrated and the strength he has shown in various files, if Batman were to reach out and grab his head, with just a light touch, his head would probably explode like a watermelon.

This person's strength and speed completely surpass the realm of humankind.

As a veteran police officer, it is impossible for him to hand over his life to others without resistance.

But Matsumoto Kiyonaga ultimately did not react.

He believed that Batman would not do something that would endanger other people's lives.

After all, he's a superhero with a no-kill rule.

Chen En's gaze fell on Matsumoto Kiyonaga.

Every movement and micro-expression of the officer in charge of the First Investigation Division was within his sight. He had just noticed a slight sense of crisis and tension, but it seemed to be within the normal range.

But regardless of whether the other person's behavior is normal or not, it is necessary to confirm whether he is wearing a disguise mask.

That hand instantly grabbed Matsumoto Kiyoshi's head, with just a slight force.

Chen En then realized that the situation seemed to be somewhat different from what he had expected.

There's no feeling of a disguise mask being pulled or tugged; this seems to be real hair. Could it be that Matsumoto Kiyonaga really wasn't impersonated by Ireland? Is this really the real deal?

Chen En withdrew his hand, his expression, hidden beneath the Batman helmet, darkened slightly.

Since Matsumoto Kiyonaga is the real deal, what about Kuroda Hyōe next to me?

After his true identity was verified, Matsumoto Kiyonaga smiled and said, seemingly quite at ease.

"Looks like my face is the real deal."

"I've heard that masters like Lupin the Phantom Thief have the ability to completely disguise themselves as another person. You don't think I'm someone else disguised, do you? Don't worry, that's absolutely impossible."

"I am Matsumoto Kiyonaga, the superintendent of the First Investigation Division of the Criminal Investigation Department!"

At that moment, the door to Matsumoto Kiyoharu's hospital room was pushed open.

Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officers accompanied a nurse into the hospital to change Matsumoto Kiyonaga's dressing. Almost instantly, the two noticed Batman standing next to Matsumoto Kiyonaga's bed. The familiar figure made them gasp in surprise.

"I'll test it, Batman!"

Chen En frowned slightly and glanced at the police officers who were exclaiming in surprise and had come to watch.

He wasn't quite used to such a crowded environment.

The two ears on the top of the helmet twitched slightly, and in the blink of an eye, smoke dispersed. When the smoke cleared, the familiar black superhero had disappeared from everyone's sight.

he left.

Chapter 1205 The final suspect is...

"...Let's check if there are any signs of disguise on Kuroda Hyōe's face?"

Conan muttered to himself.

This is what Chen En just relayed to him through his earphones.

The suspicious Dark Knight seemed to suspect that Kuroda Hyoue had been disguised and switched, and asked him to help check whether Kuroda Hyoue had a disguise mask on his face in order to prevent members of the Black Organization from infiltrating the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

Although he found the possibility quite absurd, he decided to give it a try.

Although the man in front of me, Kuroda Hyōe, knew all sorts of things related to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, he didn't seem like an imposter at all.

After all, if the Kuroda Hyōe in front of them was an imposter, then the undercover investigator from the Public Security and Judicial Department would most likely be lying in the intensive care unit with the Gold Watch Group members, temporarily out of commission.

Hakuba Saguru, who was sitting next to Conan, noticed that Conan seemed to be making some movements.

Just as he was about to ask something, he heard someone in the next ward seemingly shouting Batman's name, and heard close footsteps in the corridor, which immediately drew the attention of both him and Kuroda Hyoue.

In that instant, Conan moved slightly and reached out to wipe Kuroda Hyoue's cheek.

He was incredibly fast; it took him less than a second from wiping his cheek with his fingernail to returning to his seat. Even Kuroda Hyoue, whose true identity had been verified, only reacted after Conan had returned to his seat.

A hint of doubt appeared in the eyes of the officer in charge of the Fourth Investigation Division; he didn't know what Conan was doing.

Although Hakuba Saguru didn't see what had just happened, he noticed Kuroda Hyoue's surprised look and Conan's slight shift in position, realizing that Conan seemed to have done something.

He turned his head to look at Conan and asked.

"What's wrong? Robin, what happened?"

Conan subconsciously pretended to be stupid and said.

"It's nothing, it's nothing, I just..."

He was pretending to be stupid when he suddenly realized what was going on.

Wait a minute, I'm not using the identity of Conan Edogawa right now, I'm using the identity of Robin.

Where can I find a Robin who likes to act silly and cute?

His face immediately turned serious, and he coughed twice before speaking.

"I just have some suspicions that Manager Kuroda might have been replaced by someone in disguise."

Is it suspected that Kuroda Hyōe was impersonated and replaced?

A hint of surprise flashed in Hakuba Saguru's eyes, but he quickly recovered.

It seems that such a possibility cannot be ruled out.

This wasn't the first time he had clashed with Phantom Thief Kid.

The disguise technique demonstrated by Phantom Thief Kid allows him to completely transform into another person, even with identical voice and mannerisms. It's not impossible that someone within the Black Organization also possesses this disguise technique.

He was still inexperienced and not as cautious as Shinichi Kudo, who had followed in Batman's footsteps.

Kuroda Hyōe remained calm, simply smiling as he spoke.

"How about it? My face is the real deal, isn't it?"

He was naturally aware of the existence of disguise techniques.

As a veteran of the Japanese Public Security Bureau, this wasn't his first time dealing with the Black Organization.

They even knew the identity of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's undercover agents within the Black Organization, and naturally, they had also learned some internal information about the Black Organization from Bourbon Whiskey.

A member of the Black Organization codenamed Vermouth possesses such disguise skills.

According to records from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, Vermouth appears to have visited Tokyo once.

Of course, it doesn't mean that the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department found the mysterious Vermouth; it's just that Bourbon Whiskey mentioned her in the operation report, and Batman had already debuted at that time.

It's normal for people to have such doubts after dealing with each other before.

"...It is indeed the real deal."

Conan paused for a moment, then spoke.

"Since you have already answered the question I asked you earlier, there is no need for me to stay here."

"Chief Administrator Kuroda, Detective Hakuba, I'll be going now."

He has already learned everything he wanted to know, so there is no reason for him to linger here any longer.

The night is still long, so he might as well go back and take a look at the information compilation that Noah's Ark has put together tonight, and see if he can come up with any new guesses or conclusions.

Hakuba Saguru naturally didn't try to stop him, only to see the smoke suddenly dissipate in the ward.

When the smoke dissipates.

The little Robin had already vanished without a trace in the smoke.

At that moment, Hakuba Saguru looked up at Kuroda Hyōe and finally spoke.

"I hope you won't use Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department resources to do things for the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department again next time."

"Both my father and Deputy Inspector Moroboshi had their reservations about this."

In response to Hakuba Saguru's words, Kuroda Hyōe showed a humble attitude of admitting his mistake, but absolutely refused to change.

His feigned sincerity was so obvious that Hakuba Saguru could see right through it, leaving him speechless.

When Matsumoto Kiyonaga recommended someone to take over the mess of the Fourth Investigation Division, why did he bring in Kuroda Hyōe from the Nagano Police Headquarters? They might as well have brought in Morofushi Takaaki instead…
