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

The demon child, Nashima, rested his chin on one hand, his eyes revealing a hint of madness and greed.

He knows best how to acquire ill-gotten gains.

There's no business in Tokyo that he won't do: real estate, gun smuggling, explosives... oh, explosives, he even sold a batch of explosives to a fool who only knows how to appreciate wine.

Even if the Fourth Investigation Division finds that batch of explosives, they will eventually only trace it back to the Steel Society.

Although the shadow cabinet does not allow him to directly take action against the Steel Society, if he shifts the blame to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department and the Japanese Public Security Bureau to deal with the Steel Society, he believes that after the Steel Society is destroyed...

The Shadow Cabinet should have no reason to refuse him access to the Steel Society's legacy, right?

The only thing to consider is that ridiculous clown.

While he was away, they quietly developed their influence in Tokyo and had already gained considerable power. They even received funding from the Shadow Cabinet to counterbalance his influence.

"I need to think carefully about how to get rid of that guy..."

The ghost child, Natsufusa, gently touched his forehead with his finger.

Perhaps it's time to hire some mercenaries or assassins.

Beika Town has never lacked all sorts of outlaws.

"How's the contact with Zorro going?"

"So what if he's a modern-day Moriarty?"

Within Tokyo, there are third-party forces besides the outside Steel Association and the seasoned Mud Ginseng Association.

Dongchen Club.

The president of the Dongchen Society was dressed in a tuxedo that was completely out of place in the underworld.

They pretended to be sophisticated and imitated the mannerisms of high society.

However, it is well known that there has never been a place for the underworld in high society.

Therefore, even though his power is now almost on par with the Mud Ginseng Association, the association's leader, Gui Tong Nafusa, still regards him as a ridiculous clown.

He doesn't care.

Whether it's the Steel Conference or the Mud and Ginseng Conference.

Sooner or later, they will all be swept into the dustbin of history.

Firearms, addictive drugs, and explosives are no longer the most suitable items for trade.

The real underworld needs to develop in the economic sphere.

Casinos, banks, and all sorts of physical businesses.

Let those shady money be transformed into money that can be spent.

The president of the Dongchen Society used this money to win over one politician and celebrity after another, and to recruit one powerful criminal after another, which is how he has managed to survive in the cracks of the Mud Ginseng Society until now.

He even managed to secure the support of the shadow cabinet through connections.

"Whether it's Zorro's team or the modern Moriarty, we must win them over as soon as possible. It's just a pity that the genius Shadow Designer Ye Caisan has already disappeared."

Guhe Teng said with some regret,

He also considered the Five Senses Bandit Gang to be a good target for recruitment.

Unfortunately, they encountered the super-powered assassin Bat who defected from the Zoo organization, and the entire group was captured. Otherwise, even if these people had robbed his casino, he could have made an exception and allowed them to join the Dongchen Society.

"The next step is simply to continue cultivating relationships with celebrities from all walks of life."

"With the dark web and the black market under my control, the entire city of Tokyo will be completely under my control. As for that bat... someone will take care of him when the time comes."

Steel Association.

The man wearing the black skull mask has returned to Tokyo.

His gaze held a hint of hostility.

Their goals are different from others.

The Steel Society, which dared to attack Makoto Kusakabe right off the bat, showed no signs of having established a firm foothold in Tokyo.

His goal was not to gain a foothold in Tokyo.

To him, the Steel Society was nothing more than a pawn that could be rebuilt at will.

His real target was the Suzuki Group, which held a dominant position in the Kanto region.

His family business had been completely eliminated by the Suzuki Group in business competition, a fact he could not tolerate. Therefore, he was unable to compete with them in the legitimate world.

He chose to start from the underworld.

This choice was undoubtedly the right one.

He received a lot of help.

Shadow cabinet, the Axe River conglomerate, Southeast Asian arms dealers...

All he had to do was seize the opportunity and disrupt the Kanto region by any means necessary.

As long as steel doesn't care about any profits.

Then no force can withstand the power of the Steel Society.

Because his supporters will naturally take care of all his remaining worries.

Even the "bat" who rescued Makoto Kusakabe!

Chapter 217 The Red Siamese Cat

Morning, at my apartment.

Chen En stood by the window, holding a cup of coffee, calmly observing the situation at the Mori Detective Agency across the street.

He raised his wrist and glanced at the time on his watch.

There are still about twelve hours before he can disguise himself as Phantom Thief Kid and visit the Suzuki Foundation Exhibition Hall, even though Inspector Megure has already left Tokyo for vacation.

However, Chen En's journey as a vigilante will not stop there.

In this country, organized crime is legal.

His investigation last night confirmed that the largest yakuza organization in Tokyo is the Mud Ginseng Association. This yakuza organization had originally declined, but for unknown reasons, it suddenly revived.

It's as if someone is secretly supporting us.

Although Chen En had tried to investigate this matter, tracing back to the funds account of the Mud Conference all the way to the Swiss bank, and then starting again with the Swiss bank as a base, he could only find that the source of the funds was an anonymous bank card.

Thanks to the terrible surveillance systems abroad, his investigation in this area could only be temporarily suspended.

Moreover, the Mud God Association is not the yakuza organization that attacked Makoto Kusakabe. The Oni Tiger Group, which Makoto Kusakabe previously eliminated, had no connection or dealings with the Mud God Association.

His immediate priority is to find and eliminate the criminal organization that is targeting "Black Mask".

Makoto Kusakabe's team is also stepping up their investigation. If he gets access to the Japanese Public Security Bureau's internal information quickly enough, he might be able to find out which yakuza organization "Black Mask" is targeting within the next few days.

At that time.

Even if Chen En wasn't after that dual-purpose Batmobile, but merely wanted to maintain order.

He will also directly resolve this obvious destabilizing factor in Tokyo, at which point Makoto Kusakabe will contact his friend Reiko Kujo, the "Madonna of the prosecutor's world," in the Criminal Division of the Tokyo Public Prosecutors Office to file a lawsuit.

When the time comes, Reiko Kujo and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department will share the profits, so I believe they won't refuse.

"But what exactly is the purpose of the Harley Quinn's baseball bat that we got earlier?"

Suddenly, Chen En remembered the system item he had obtained earlier.

He took the item out of his six-slot storage belt, and immediately, the system light screen appeared before his eyes.

【Item Name: Harley Quinn's Baseball Bat】

[Note 1: This is the baseball bat used by the infamous villain Harley Quinn. She has defeated countless superheroes and supervillains with a single blow, even the notorious Shazam the Thunder has not escaped her fate.]

[Note 2: It is said that a baseball bat hit on the head can cause someone to see things beyond the realm of reality for a short time. However, many people insist that it is just a hallucination caused by Harley Quinn's concussion...]

Can it allow people to see things beyond the realm of reality?

A hint of doubt appeared in Chen En's eyes.

He remembered that Harley Quinn had the ability to break the fourth wall and communicate with real readers in some publications. Could it be that this baseball bat could do the same thing? Make the person hit break the fourth wall?

Thinking it over, he gently tapped the baseball bat against his head.

The scene before my eyes suddenly changed.

Even the Mori Detective Agency ahead seemed to have changed somewhat. Chen En could see many fallen steel needles just by glancing at the ground, which made him frown.

Is this an illusion? Or does it really exist?

Before Chen En could think further, the baseball bat's effect had already ended.

It is obvious that to enter a hallucinatory state for an extended period of time...

It's highly likely that you'd have to use enough force to cause him a concussion, like hitting yourself on the head with a stick.

Chen En chose to keep his distance from such matters and put the baseball bat back into his six-slot storage belt.

Let's talk about it when we have no other choice.

Is it really that stupid of him to give himself a concussion just to test the effect? ​​He could just find a lucky person and hit them on the back of the head, and then ask the lucky person what happens.

"Then, it's time to set off..."

Chen En had just turned around, preparing to wander around Beika Town a few times to see if he could encounter any security incidents.

Just then, he heard his phone ring. Somewhat surprised, he took it out of his pocket, wondering who could be calling him at this hour.

Sonoko Suzuki said yesterday that she would accompany Jirokichi Suzuki to see the new toys he bought this morning.

Therefore, the person calling now cannot be Sonoko Suzuki, nor can it be Conan and his group. Makoto Kusakabe would use a separate communicator to communicate with him, so the only person who could make the call is either Professor Agasa or Shuichi Akai.
