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

"This is very strange."

Chen En's voice was low and hoarse.

Moreover, even ignoring all the oddities, just looking at the judgment given by the system mission when Gin attacked Furuya Rei last time.

Gin couldn't just die like that.

According to the Batman system, Gin's opponent is the Joker, a supervillain who can't be killed and will continue to entangle Batman.

Even if the Joker dies, he will be resurrected. Isn't that common sense in Batman?

"It seems we should preserve the body for now and have Koizumi Akako examine it to see if there are any problems."

Chen En thought to himself, quickly scanned the screen, and after confirming that Gin did not have any Pandora gems on him, he adjusted the headphone channel with his finger.

He asked.

"Haibara, how's it going on your end? Did you find Curaçao? Has anything changed in Curaçao?"

Upon hearing this, Ai Haibara paused for a moment before replying.

"I……"

Standing in the somewhat dark alley, Ai Haibara's gaze fell on the dim lights nearby before she answered Chen En.

“Following the route you told me, I did indeed find Curaçao using a skateboard.”

"She's different from the person I remember."

"Just as you guessed, Curaçao has indeed regained her memories, and she has returned to being the Black Organization member she once was."

"And for some reason, Curaçao seemed to know me before, so she recognized me the moment she saw me, Sherry."

But Curaçao doesn't intend to expose your true identity, nor does it intend to harm you or bring you back to the organization to report, is that right?

Chen En did not say these words aloud, but he had already made up his mind.

The result can be obtained very easily.

It wasn't because Chen En possessed any precognitive magic, or because he activated some kind of eavesdropping device on Ai Haibara.

The fact that Ai Haibara can still talk to him normally means that they must have done that.

That's exactly what happened.

"Ai Haibara said."

"She doesn't intend to tell Rum that I am Sherry, and she doesn't intend to return to the Black Organization."

"But she didn't want to go back to the Bat Cave either."

"Curaçao said that Ye Caisan was the man who could be her father, but she can't go back to see Ye Caisan now."

"because……"

This time, without Ai Haibara having to give that somewhat hesitant answer, Chen En spoke first, directly and bluntly.

"Because of me, right?"

This simple, clear, and insightful answer left Ai Haibara silent until she finally gave a firm reply.

"Correct."

"The rum had done her a favor, so she would never betray information about the rum, nor would she ever harm the rum."

"But Ye Caisan has also done her a favor, so she will not attack Ye Caisan, nor will she expose Ye Caisan and the Bat Cave's information."

"But from her interactions with you during this time, she can tell that you are not the type to easily believe her, and she will definitely press her for information about the rum."

"So she chose to leave."

"This way, she won't have to face this difficult choice, and she can return to the normal life she wants."

Do I really have such a bad image in other people's eyes?

Chen En narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a look of disapproval, but he didn't say anything more, only that...

Are you alright?

"If there's no danger to your lives, wait for Conan nearby. He'll be here soon. You can all take the Batplane back to the Batcave together. I'll handle the rest."

Logically speaking, Ai Haibara should have ended the communication by now, without dragging things out. But at this moment, she couldn't help but ask a question.

"So, will you go to Curaçao?"

Chen En said.

"That depends on whether she will appear in front of me again."

Regardless, Curaçao remains a codenamed member of the Black Organization.

Her hands were not clean.

However, before dealing with other dangerous factors within Tokyo, such as the Black Organization, the Shadow Cabinet, and the assassins from the Kingdom of Vesbania.

Chen En will not take the initiative to go to Curaçao.

Since Curaçao has stated that he wants to go into seclusion, and based on his understanding of Curaçao, it is certain that Curaçao will disappear for a period of time and will not do anything evil.

As a risk factor, Curaçao should be excluded from the list of potential hazard groups.

Unless Curaçao suddenly appears while he is dealing with other dangerous factors, causing obstacles or doing something bad, he will not take the initiative to seek out Curaçao again and eliminate potential hazards in advance.

Ai Haibara ended the communication at this point.

After switching the headphones back to the Noah's Ark channel, Chen En turned his gaze back towards the Dongchen Society headquarters building.

Although Furukawa Fuji survived the attack, the Toujin-kai headquarters will likely have to deal with the Japanese Public Security Bureau and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department for some time to come.

While it is legal to own guns in Japan, obtaining a gun license requires a rather complicated process.

Furthermore, all firearms sold to individuals that can be used with a gun license are numbered.

Obviously, it's impossible for all the people at the Dongchen Society headquarters to have gun licenses, nor is it possible for every handgun to have a serial number.

If it were just Japanese police officers near the Dongchen Society's headquarters, that would be a plausible explanation, since the Japanese police are aware of the Dongchen Society's special circumstances.

However, if we include the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, then it's a different story, since the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department personnel are relatively more conscientious and responsible.

He planned to go find Guhe Teng later, but for now he was going to find Ye Caisan first.

……

In another conference room in the Dongchen Club headquarters building, Ye Caisan sat in a chair, looking at the empty seat in front of him with some irritation.

Although he could be considered a collaborator between the Bat Cave and the Dongchen Society.

Moreover, he had helped the Dongchen Society resolve internal issues on several occasions in the past, but this time he did not participate in the negotiations between the Dongchen Society and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

He has made up his mind to give up his cooperation with Furukawa Fuji and will never do anything for Furukawa Fuji again.

If it weren't inconvenient to leave from the Dongchen Society headquarters right now, Ye Caisan would probably have already left in anger and returned to the Bat Cave.

Just as Ye Caisan was still in a state of mental turmoil, he heard a knock on the door. He subconsciously looked up and saw a familiar figure outside the peephole.

That battle suit, without a doubt.

It's Batman.

Chen En pushed open the door and entered, sitting down next to Ye Caisan. His gaze fell on Ye Caisan, and then he spoke in a calm and firm voice.

"Curaçao has regained her memories and has already left."

"She said she wouldn't tell the Black Organization our information, but she also wouldn't tell us anything about the Black Organization."

"She will not see the Black Organization again, but she will also not see the Batcave."

"She plans to live an ordinary, normal life."

Upon hearing this, Ye Caisan's eyes flickered slightly, then he sighed and said.

"...Is that so?"

"But on closer thought, Curaçao might actually do that."

"If you put me in Curaçao's position, after experiencing the Black Organization's hellish death training and doing so many things I didn't want to do."

"I'll probably leave as soon as we're even and can leave without owing each other anything."

Ye Caisan raised his head and then spoke.

Batman.

"To be honest, even though I'm a criminal planner, I'm getting a little tired of the current situation."

"so……"

This is what this once famous and influential figure in Tokyo said.

"...Do you have any plans to hire a butler to actually manage the manor's internal affairs?"

"Or is it that if you want to work in the Batcave, you have to have a code name and can't use your real name?"

To this, Chen En simply said...

"Of course you're welcome."

"In my opinion, as a butler, you don't need any code name in the Batcave. But if you absolutely have to have one..."

"How about a penny?"

One penny?

Ye Caisan repeated the name in his mind, then nodded and said.

"I didn't expect you to give me this code name. Well then, I'll accept it."

"From today onwards, my code name is Penny One. I hope we can work well together in the future, Mr. Chen En."

……

At the headquarters of the Dongchen Society, Furukawa Fuji was arguing with the Japanese public security members who had come over, and was quite troubled by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's insistence on taking things seriously.

Those Japanese public security officers who are neither fully corrupt nor corrupt are actually easier to talk to...

At that moment, the Japanese police officers who were investigating nearby returned with a photograph and found Furukawa Fuji.

The person asking the question was a member of the gold watch group.
