"In this mechanism, the Azure Dragon represents spring, the Vermilion Bird represents summer, the White Tiger represents autumn, and the Black Tortoise represents winter. The meaning of Misui Kichiemon is that, without the key, the dragons lean against the mechanism platform in the order of spring, summer, autumn, and winter."
Although Chen En quickly solved the riddle after observing it.
However, he received a different answer from Hakuba Saguru regarding the order, because he felt that since Misui Kichiemon arranged the mechanisms according to the four symbols of the mysterious Eastern Great Kingdom, the activation order should also follow the way the mysterious Eastern Great Kingdom pronounces them.
However, it turns out that Misui Kichiemon, this extraordinary man, had his own understanding.
Suzuki Jirokichi stared blankly at Chen En for a moment, then saw Chen En nod.
He then allowed the other members of the Suzuki Foundation to enter the mountain shrine and, following the instructions of Hakuba Saguru, begin to decipher the Four Gods Mechanisms left by Misui Kichiemon, preparing to retrieve the Kirin Horn from the mechanism pillar.
Meanwhile, Hakuba Saguru stood beside Suzuki Jirokichi, keeping an eye on the mechanisms to prevent any accidents from happening.
Kyogoku Makoto, who was supposed to be in the support position, took a step back and came to Chen En's side.
He glanced at Suzuki Sonoko next to Chen En, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke seriously.
“Mr. Chen En, I am ready to face off against Phantom Thief Kid.”
"My Tenjin-ryu Karate will not lose!"
You should say that to Kaito Kid himself, not to me.
Chen En glanced at Makoto Kyogoku, his eyebrows slightly raised.
Or do you still think I'm Kaito Kid even now?
What about Batman? Who do you think Batman is? Is it Kaito Kuroba?
Chen En's reaction was indifferent.
Kyogoku Makoto thought that his performance wasn't serious enough, so he spoke even more earnestly.
"I have completed the targeted training."
"With my absolute defensive barrier, I won't be fooled or even frustrated by Kaito Kid's various gadgets like I was last time. I will go all out from the start and show Kaito Kid my true strength!"
Sonoko Suzuki: ?
Sonoko Suzuki glanced at Makoto Kyogoku and said in a low voice,
"Um, Mr. Kyogoku, don't you know?"
"Actually, Arn isn't Phantom Thief Kid."
Upon hearing this, Makoto Kyogoku nodded and replied.
"Yes, I know. Mr. Chen En is not Phantom Thief Kid."
"I was just explaining my resolve to Kaito Kid. He did save my life last time, and I won't let him get caught, but I also won't let him steal the jewel right in front of me."
"I came here precisely to have a showdown with Phantom Thief Kid!"
Chen En: ?
Chen En blinked, and considering that Kuroba Kaito had taught him disguise and disguise techniques, he emphasized,
"The one who stole the Jade Emperor wasn't Phantom Thief Kid. It was just me impersonating Phantom Thief Kid, putting on an act. Everyone, including myself, knows this. It's just that if you ask Uncle Jirokichi, he'll be too proud to admit it."
Sonoko Suzuki, standing nearby, nodded repeatedly and said...
"Yes, yes, both Jirokichi's uncle and I know that A-en is really not Kaito Kid!"
Kyogoku Makoto:?
What?! You're a born evil guy who uses sweet talk to win girls' hearts!
They actually managed to fool even the garden?
Could it be that they're trying to mislead me in this way? Damn it, I won't fall for it!
On the day of the operation, I will definitely be in top form and fight you fair and square!
Let me show you the power of Tenjin-ryu Karate, a master of unrecognized techniques!
Chapter 516 What? DC Corporation is going to send me a lawyer's letter?
"Is this the Qilin?"
Hakuba Saguru's gaze fell on the Qilin statue inside the activation mechanism pillar, mainly focusing on the Qilin horn at the top of the statue, which was a world-class precious gem. It has to be said that Misui Kichiemon's family is truly wealthy.
He knew of at least three famous and rare items, and this amber unicorn horn was far from being one of his most precious possessions.
However, Hakuba Saguru's words were misunderstood by his bodyguard, Goto Zengo.
Goto Zengo coughed twice, showing off his knowledge.
"It's not a giraffe, it's a qilin."
Hakuba Saguru: ?
Although the two words are homophones, do you really think I would mistake a giraffe for a qilin?
Hakuba Saguru's face darkened.
Jirokichi Suzuki, however, didn't care about any of that.
He grabbed the Qilin statue inside, then lifted it high with one hand, saying with great delight,
"We got the amber unicorn horn gem!"
He was as happy as a kid on the street who had just caught a new Pokémon in a Pokémon game.
Chen En was speechless.
He also knew something about what Suzuki Jirokichi had been up to lately.
After all, there aren't many precious gems worthy of the Suzuki Museum's caliber, and given Suzuki Jirokichi's practice of exhibiting each gem only once, collecting such gems is becoming increasingly difficult.
It's likely that Suzuki Jirokichi searched for quite some time before finally settling his attention on this treasure of Misui Kichiemon.
Thinking of this, Chen En stroked his chin, feeling a little nostalgic for the kryptonite he used to get from refreshing the shop.
Pure green kryptonite costs only ten points.
He even considered buying the kryptonite directly, repackaging it, and deliberately letting the mysterious organization steal it, thus giving them a significant boost in cancer cell proliferation and eliminating the entire organization without bloodshed.
After all, Kryptonite is also an alien gemstone with special abilities, perfectly matching the characteristics of Pandora gemstones.
However, Chen En was short of money at that time and did not exchange it.
He didn't get any similar gems after that. During this time, the system shop did have an interesting item, Bane's Cyclic Venom, which cost 500 points, but he didn't redeem it.
Chen En doesn't need Venom for now, because he can summon the Batmobile to create a way out of any situation that requires power.
He planned to save up 1,000 points first, and then consider whether there were any other valuable items to exchange for, since the previous 1,000-point buffer green light ring had left a deep impression on him.
Maybe if he accumulates a thousand points, he can get other colors of the light ring and become a ring holder for a while?
However, the others had no idea what Chen En was thinking.
The members of the Suzuki Foundation formed a circle around Suzuki Jirokichi, clapping and congratulating him, creating a strange sense of déjà vu.
Having solved the mystery, Hakuba Saguru came to Chen En's side.
He glanced at Suzuki Sonoko, who was clinging to Chen En's arm, raised an eyebrow slightly, and then said,
"Miss, may I borrow your boyfriend for three minutes?"
Sonoko Suzuki: ?
What do you want? Three minutes?
Do you want to be one with him, become a giant of light, and save the world?
A hint of wariness flickered in Sonoko Suzuki's eyes.
She stared at Hakuba Saguru for a while, until she felt that his demeanor was strangely familiar, and considering that her previous impression of him wasn't too bad, she reluctantly let go of his hand and said,
"Okay, three minutes then."
Seeing Suzuki Sonoko let go, Hakuba Saguru turned to Chen En and calmly said...
"Mr. Chen En, may I speak to you in private?"
"The situation I explained to you in the previous text message was not comprehensive. Please allow me to explain it to you again in case you still have some misunderstandings about the real situation, so that you cannot make the right preparations."
"Some people always need to have backup plans and preparations, don't they?"
Hearing this, Sonoko Suzuki was somewhat surprised.
She thought Hakuba Saguru was referring to Chen En being Batman.
However, when Hakuba Saguru last visited Tokyo, Chen En had not yet officially debuted as Batman. So why did Hakuba Saguru know that Chen En's true identity was Batman?
Could it be that Hakuba Saguru opened Batman's box like he did with the self-proclaimed Phantom Thief Kid, and then randomly picked a lucky audience member?
In response to Hakuba Saguru's invitation, Chen En nodded slightly and said,
"Let's not delay, let's go."
Bai Ma Tan and Chen En immediately walked one after the other towards the outside of the mountain temple.
Seeing this, Suzuki Jirokichi and Kyogoku Makoto approached with some curiosity.
A hint of doubt appeared in his eyes as he asked,
"Yuanzi, why did Brother Chen En go out with that white-horse-riding boy?"
"They've barely met, how come they haven't seen each other for so long? What could they possibly have in common to talk about?"
Sonoko Suzuki glanced at Makoto Kyogoku with some difficulty, then leaned close to Jirokichi Suzuki and whispered something in his ear.
"Mr. White Horse may have already seen through Arn's true identity."
Suzuki Jirokichi: ?
Is Zun Du fake Du?
Chen En first appeared in the public eye as Batman on a plane bound for Hakodate, while Hakuba Saguru had already transferred to another country.
