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

Previously, the man in black had remained hidden, making no move whatsoever.

Chen En was still searching for a specific trace of the Black Mask.

Now, with the hijacking incident triggered by the black mask, just by recognizing the identities of the hijackers...

He could already more or less confirm the range of Black Mask's activities.

Finding the exact location of Black Mask in Tokyo is only a matter of time.

In response, Yusaku Kudo adjusted his glasses.

He became serious and said earnestly.

"I've also done some research on this."

"According to the investigation results of a friend of mine, Black Mask... I mean the chairman of the Steel Association, his true identity should be the young chairman of the Miura Group, which was acquired by the Suzuki Group more than ten years ago due to bankruptcy."

"His real identity should be Takeo Miura, who was active in Kanagawa Prefecture before, gathering people."

"However, Miura Takeo's power should not have developed to this point, because just a few years ago, Miura Takeo tried to squeeze into the Tokyo underworld as a member of the Steel Society, but was driven out by the Mud Ginseng Society and suffered a great loss."

“A normal underworld organization should at least be completely wiped out.”

Yusaku Kudo's voice grew increasingly serious.

"However, Miura Takeo inexplicably rose to prominence again and even returned to Tokyo. This time, the Mud Sand Association even abandoned its previous grudges and tacitly agreed that the Steel Association could occupy a part of the Tokyo underworld."

"This is not normal; someone must be pulling the strings behind the scenes."

Conan, who was originally in his Spinosaurus form,

Upon hearing the two discuss those secrets that would normally be unheard of, the underlying code of curiosity finally triumphed over the underlying code of yawning, and the person returned to normal.

He stroked his chin and asked, puzzled.

"Is it the Black Organization?"

Frankly speaking, Conan's understanding of various secret matters is not as good as Yusaku Kudo's.

Even if Yusaku Kudo has already settled abroad, it's still the same.

Therefore, when mentioning the possibility that someone might be manipulating things behind the scenes, deliberately causing the steel industry to return,

Conan's first reaction was that the Black Organization had succeeded.

Kudo Yusaku shook his head slightly at this.

"No, it shouldn't be the Black Organization."

“Shinichi, the Black Organization you mentioned is indeed powerful, but not powerful enough to control the Tokyo underworld. If they could do that, you wouldn’t have been able to witness the transaction.”

They have plenty of ways to make transactions legitimate.

There's no need to resort to such a risky method, let alone do something as outrageous as knocking Shinichi Kudo unconscious and then drugging him. The level of sophistication is simply incomparable.

"The Black Organization is unlikely, so what about Karasuma Renya?"

Chen En suddenly said,

Upon hearing this, Yusaku Kudo was stunned.

He looked up at Chen En, repeated the name Karasuma Renya, and then asked,

“Mr. Chen En, you mean Karasuma Renya? Karasuma Renya is already dead.”

"If he were still alive, he would have lived to be over 140 years old, which is impossible!"

Why would you suspect Karasuma Renya?

Hearing this, Conan finally had a chance to speak.

he said,

“When Chen En and I first met, he told me that the true leader of the Black Organization was Karasuma Renya, and that his current situation was unclear. He might have turned into an infant or something else to prolong his life.”

"So, who exactly is Karasuma Renya? I can't find this name online?"

Of course, Karasuma Renya's name cannot be found online.

Karasuma Renya died before Earth entered the Internet age. The only thing that could be associated with Karasuma Renya is probably the "Twilight Villa Massacre," which has been concealed by celebrities and the powerful.

Yusaku Kudo's expression turned serious.

“I once investigated the Twilight Villa Massacre, which mentioned Karasuma Renya.”

"He is the head of the Karasuma family. It is said that the Karasuma family possesses a vast fortune equivalent to the combined wealth of all Japanese conglomerates. However, they are currently living underground. If he were still alive, he would most likely be the most powerful person in all of Japan."

"If Karasuma Renya really is the leader behind the Black Organization,"

"If the Black Organization is backed by the Karasuma family, then... Shinichi, your hypothesis isn't impossible. However, I don't understand why the Karasuma family would mobilize the yakuza in this way?"

"I don't know what he can get out of it."

Chapter 284 The real crucial moment is about to begin, Batman

Indeed it is.

Chen En knew very well that although Black Mask's power seemed enormous, it was actually still insufficient compared to the Black Organization. This was because it wouldn't be that difficult for the Black Organization to take down the Suzuki Group; they could simply use those two fighter jets to straf the Suzuki Group.

No matter how much precautions Shiro Suzuki and Tomoko Suzuki took, they could never have imagined that someone would dare to fly a fighter jet into the city to kill people.

The actions of Black Mask are now having an impact comparable to flying a fighter jet into the city to kill people. The entire city of Tokyo is living in fear. If it really were Karasuma Renya, there would be no need to use a white glove like Black Mask.

So, who exactly is supporting Black Mask and other underworld figures?

Chen En frowned slightly.

He's thinking about it, but can't find a suitable candidate yet.

Conan, at this moment, asked in confusion,

"Dad, you mentioned 'The Twilight Villa Tragedy'?"

"What is that? Is it a case with a huge impact? Then I shouldn't have never heard of it... Could it be being hidden? But how could it be hidden so thoroughly? What exactly happened?"

Upon hearing this, Kudo Yusaku pondered for a moment.

Then, he explained everything he knew.

The Twilight Villa Tragedy.

This case occurred forty years ago.

As the head of the Karasuma family, the most powerful conglomerate, Karasuma Renya invited celebrities from all over the country to a banquet.

The banquet was held at the Twilight Villa.

According to the vague records,

It is said that someone suddenly visited while the celebrities were attending a banquet.

They shared a special drug.

Subsequently, these celebrities turned on each other. Later, feeling that the incident damaged their image, they sealed up and buried the Twilight Villa Massacre. Karasuma Renya died of illness shortly afterward.

The Karasuma family then went underground with the deceased Karasuma Renya, never to be seen again.

"The records of that matter are mostly vague, and even what I know may not be true."

"I can't even find any information about who the important people were at that banquet, or who died as a result. It's as if the dead have had all traces of their existence erased out of thin air."

At this point, Yusaku Kudo couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

A person dies three times in the world.

The first form of death is physical death, characterized by cessation of breathing, cardiac arrest, and loss of consciousness.

The second death is a relational death, when no one cares about him anymore, and the relationship between him and his friends gradually fades. The third death is an existential death, when a person's existence is erased without leaving a single word.

If no one knows who this person is, what they did, or what their name is, then this person is completely dead.

They died completely.

"If, Mr. Chen En, your and Conan's speculation is correct, and the true leader of the Black Organization is Karasuma Renya, the head of the Karasuma family who faked his death forty years ago, then I must warn you again."

“You are making an enemy of the most powerful people in Japan, an enemy of the super-rich who should not even be alive.”

Yusaku Kudo adjusted his glasses and said,

"Therefore, after I have dealt with the rest of the follow-up matters, Yukiko and I will return to Tokyo to settle down. Until the matter concerning the Black Organization is completely resolved, Yukiko and I will stay here to help you deal with the Black Organization."

"The real turning point is coming, Chen En, no, Batman."

To completely erase the lives and records of prominent figures in Japan at that time?

A look of surprise flashed across Conan's eyes.

Even if the internet didn't exist back then, it was still almost impossible to do. Could this Karasuma Renya really be that terrifying? Has his power already reached such a level?

However, Chen En simply said calmly,

"Yes, that suits me perfectly."

"I'm just waiting for Karasuma Renya to emerge from the darkness and attack me with all his power. That way, I can easily take care of Karasuma Renya and make the Black Organization disappear completely."

Such words are extremely arrogant.

Especially considering that Kudo Yusaku had just explained how terrifying Karasuma Renya was.

However, whether it's Yusaku Kudo, Yukiko Kudo, or Conan,

They could all clearly sense the confidence in Chen En's words.

It seemed as if Chen En wasn't joking.

They genuinely believed it and truly thought it was possible.

That's a really impressive guy.
