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

But thinking about the family heirloom gem and the possibility of getting it back, he couldn't help but get up, walk out of the conference room, look around to make sure the police officers next to him weren't paying attention to him before heading towards the back door.

He just received a message saying that the gems that were stolen from him have been found.

If you want to get the gems, go through the back door.

However, the Flying Dragon Warriors were not entirely unprepared for this.

The wooden mechanical birds that had been circling near the Osaka Police Headquarters had already arrived at the back door ahead of him. If there was any danger, or if he encountered any danger, those wooden mechanical birds would help him escape.

However, just as Flying Dragon Master pushed open the door and stepped out, the scene before him surprised him.

The family heirloom gem that he had lost was now lying on the ground by the back door.

He subconsciously rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasn't seeing things, then quickly reached out and picked up the family heirloom gem. After carefully examining it and confirming that it was indeed the gem he had lost, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although I don't know who left the gem here, I'm just glad it's back.

Just as Flying Dragon summoned the wooden mechanical bird circling in the sky to check who had put the gem back, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

Because when the wooden mechanical bird approached the gem, the gem did not exhibit the strange changes that had occurred before.

"...This gem is fake?"

"I'm a little surprised," said the Flying Dragon Warrior.

They look, feel, and have the same texture.

But the gemstone is fake; it doesn't have that special power attached to it.

Who on earth is so bored as to produce such a realistic fake?

Chapter 1215 Okita Ichiro, Undefeated in a Hundred Battles

Interior of a hotel room in Osaka Prefecture.

"...So, the gem has been found now?"

Sitting in the room, Sonoko Suzuki asked curiously.

"It seems like you deal with Lupin the Phantom Thief more easily than you deal with Kid the Phantom Thief?"

How could dealing with Phantom Thief Lupin be easier than dealing with Phantom Thief Kid?

Having returned to the hotel, Chen En, who had let Noah's Ark pilot the Batfighter back to its nearby base on its own, took a sip of coffee and then said with certainty.

"My strategy for dealing with Lupin III can only be used once; it won't work the next time."

"Moreover, Lupin III returned that gem, and although its appearance, texture, and every other aspect seemed exactly the same as the lost gem, I still felt that Lupin III wouldn't give up so easily."

"If nothing unexpected happens, I'll most likely have to help Inspector Zenigata deal with Lupin III tomorrow."

Hearing Chen En's words, Suzuki Sonoko became even more curious.

"However, judging from the past duels between Inspector Zenigata and Lupin III, even if you don't help, Lupin III will most likely return the jewel, right? It just might take a while?"

It will take a while, of course.

Furthermore, considering that Lupin III did not inform Inspector Zenigata of the specific time and location of this operation, it seems unlikely that Lupin III will easily allow Inspector Zenigata's plan to succeed this time.

If the loss of the Dragon Warrior Gem was indeed as he had predicted, and related to the situation in the Kingdom of Vesbania...

Therefore, Chen En could be almost certain that their next stop would be Tokyo.

After suspecting that the incident was related to the Kingdom of Vesbania, he had already investigated the relevant content of that theatrical version and clearly found the visit records of the Kingdom of Vesbania and Japan.

The princess of the Kingdom of Vesbania, who looks exactly like Ran Mouri, will soon arrive in Tokyo, Japan.

In Chen En's memory, the story of the thugs trying to seize the Vesbanian ore and the story of the Vesbanian princess visiting Japan came from two interconnected theatrical films.

Now, it's highly likely that the two theatrical releases will be combined, and who knows what kind of mishaps might occur.

From any perspective, he decided to crush the group of guys trying to seize the Vesbania ore in Osaka Prefecture.

"...In short, this is their last stop in Osaka Prefecture."

Chen En did not reveal what he knew, but only gave a vague answer.

"If necessary, I will resort to some extraordinary measures."

Just like King and Lupin III's previous assessment of Chen En.

This character has mechanics and stats, and in addition to stats, there are also items.

But the gadgets he has are far more than just the miscellaneous gadgets developed by Professor Agasa in Batmobile. If he's really pushed to the limit, he can just activate the yellow light ring and sweep everything with one click.

They were immediately taken away by Lupin III and his gang, the guys who plotted to seize the Vesbania ore, and the FBI agents investigating Lupin III.

If they can survive 30 seconds in a team fight, it's considered a failed attempt.

Just as Sonoko Suzuki was about to ask about the situation in Tokyo again...

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Immediately, Sonoko Suzuki looked at the door with some curiosity, wondering who would be knocking on the door at this time.

Because Ran Mouri and Kogoro Mouri didn't stay at the inn with them, but instead went to the Hattori family's house for a night, in other words, the only familiar person staying at the inn was Chen En.

Logically speaking, it's impossible for anyone else to visit the hotel room at this time.

"... Hattori Heiji."

Chen En didn't even open the door; he simply listened to the sounds outside and immediately made a judgment.

"It seems he went to the scene where I dealt with Lupin III tonight with Inspector Zenigata and officers from the Osaka Police Headquarters. Is he here to confirm the details?"

He explained the situation to Sonoko Suzuki as he walked towards the gate and pressed the lock.

The next instant, Hattori Heiji casually walked into the room carrying his wooden sword.

This sight, which Sonoko Suzuki had never seen before, left her completely stunned.

Dude, what are you planning to do bringing over a wooden sword so late at night?

Are you trying to assassinate Batman?

Bringing a wooden sword to assassinate Batman seems a bit disrespectful.

Just as Sonoko Suzuki was internally complaining, Heiji Hattori spoke seriously at that moment.

"Chen En, what do you think of my swordsmanship compared to Ishikawa Goemon's?"

The famous detective from Kansai's words immediately silenced Chen En.

Even someone as brilliant as Candy Batman wouldn't know how to evaluate Hattori Heiji's overconfident attitude towards kendo...

If Chen En remembered correctly, Conan had mentioned to him before that in Hakodate City, Conan asked Hattori Heiji for his opinion on Okita Souji, and Okita Souji's answer at the time was, "Okita Souji's swordsmanship is no less than mine."

However, judging from Hattori Heiji's several victories against Okita Souji,

This famous detective from Kansai is comparable to Okita Ichiji, having a 100% defeat record against Okita Souji.

He was almost killed by Okita Souji's nameless fifth-dan thrust in a head-on confrontation. Afterwards, he was sent to the hospital for a long time to recuperate. In the end, he still felt that Okita Souji was on par with him, only not inferior to him.

Now, does this famous detective think that Ishikawa Goemon's level is about the same as his?

Chen En closed the door and simply said...

"I think your swordsmanship is like the star compared to the sun compared to Ishikawa Goemon."

Upon hearing this, Hattori Heiji's eyes lit up, and he said.

"I never expected you to think of me as the sun."

"I think that's a bit of an overstatement. Although my swordsmanship is indeed very good, the gap between me and Ishikawa Goemon isn't that big. I feel a little embarrassed by what you're saying."

Chen En: ?

Your inflated sense of self-importance is a kind of illness; it needs treatment.

Chen En didn't bother to argue, but instead focused his gaze on the wooden sword Hattori Heiji was holding and asked.

"I'm not going to talk about this with you."

"What are you trying to do, bringing this wooden sword over here?"

"If you want to spar with Ishikawa Goemon, then let me tell you, I can no longer be sure where Ishikawa Goemon and Lupin III are. If you want to do that, Inspector Zenigata will help you tomorrow."

However, at that very moment, Hattori Heiji suddenly drew his wooden sword and said seriously.

"I actually came here this time to have a friendly spar with you."

"Since you were able to force Ishikawa Goemon to use the sharpness of the Zantetsu sword to cut through the passage wall and escape, then you are definitely not much worse than Ishikawa Goemon in terms of swordsmanship skills."

"I want to try and see if the difference between me and Ishikawa Tamemon lies in swordsmanship skills or in that Zantetsu sword!"

They did not feel any regret for Ishikawa Goemon's defeat.

The next person to arrive at the scene was Hattori Heiji!

Chapter 1216 I Really Need to Increase His Intensity

"How pathetic, Hattori Heiji. I'll probably forget about you tonight."

Heiji Hattori, the famous detective and kendo master from Kansai, achieved a remarkable 0.5 seconds in a head-on confrontation with Batman.

Even the wooden sword was broken in two; the method was extremely cruel.

He's lying on the ground now, contemplating life.

Sonoko Suzuki, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, exclaimed in surprise.

What just happened?

"I only blinked, how did it end like that? Is the gap really that big?"

Upon hearing this, Hattori Heiji, who had been lying on the ground contemplating life, suddenly stood up.
