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

"After Inspector Nakamori's plan to capture Phantom Thief Kid failed, Uncle, you've been staring at the mechanism pillar for almost half an hour."

"How about we take a break?"

Suzuki Jirokichi: ?

Please, you're so annoying!

I've only been watching for a little over half an hour, and you're already telling me to take a break? You're seriously underestimating my Suzuki Jiro-level skills!

I am one of the few explorers out there, aren't I?

What dangerous places haven't I been to? I'd have collapsed long ago if I didn't have the energy. Don't mistake me for some ordinary old man!

Jirokichi Suzuki turned his head and snorted.

He looked like he was throwing a tantrum.

He doesn't look like a seventy or eighty-year-old elder; he looks more like a primary school student.

See here.

Even Sonoko Suzuki felt a sense of helplessness at this moment; she had never imagined that she would be the one who seemed more mature.

Everyone used to say she was childish.

"What happened?"

The voice sounded behind the two of them.

The sudden sound startled both Sonoko Suzuki and Jirokichi Suzuki, as they had not heard any noise before.

Furthermore, security at the Suzuki Foundation exhibition hall has been tightened again due to the bombings that have occurred throughout Tokyo.

The situation can now be described as having a guard every five steps and a sentry every ten steps. How could anyone possibly sneak up behind these two key protected individuals without making a sound?

If there is one person who can do it.

That person definitely couldn't be Kaito Kid; there's only one possibility: ...

Wow, it really is you!

Sonoko Suzuki turned her head and said with surprise.

Her gaze fell on Chen En in front of her, and she noticed that this Night Knight from Beika Town was not wearing the bat armor.

Instead, he changed into a casual outfit to meet them.

Jirokichi Suzuki nodded knowingly.

I knew it!

With guards every five steps and sentries every ten, even the Phantom Thief Kid couldn't possibly sneak up behind them silently.

The only one who can do that is Batman, the Dark Knight of Beika Town.

"I am back."

Chen En said calmly.

His gaze passed over Suzuki Jirokichi and landed on the mechanism pillar inside. He narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced at it, and said.

"It looks like someone tampered with the mechanism pillar."

"Uncle Suzuki, have the electric traps you set up on the four platforms next to the mechanism pillar been tampered with?"

Suzuki Jirokichi: ?

See through, don’t say through.

You've made me lose face.

However, Suzuki Jirokichi and Chen En's attention was still focused on the mechanical pillar, while Suzuki Sonoko's attention was focused on Chen En.

She came to Chen En's side and asked in a low voice.

"Ah-en, how are you feeling?"

"I heard tonight is particularly dangerous, with all sorts of criminals operating tonight. You were out alone, were you alright?"

Sonoko Suzuki recalled the wish she had made earlier.

She always felt that given Chen En's frequency of actions, things were bound to go wrong sooner or later; he couldn't always pull off a miracle of resurrection...

"Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Chen En nodded slightly and said earnestly.

"In Beika Town, as long as the demons and monsters don't show up, I'm invincible!"

Chapter 687 So Kuroba Chikage is actually the Phantom Thief Lady!

"You mean Lady Kuroba went back to Tokyo today?"

"The person who disguised herself as me was actually her. No wonder another version of me suddenly walked in."

The living room of the Kudo residence.

Kudo Yusaku said knowingly.

After the operation to hunt down Phantom Thief Kid was completely over, he, who was not one of the four guardians who had been invited in the first place, naturally did not stay any longer.

It's only now that they're asking about what exactly happened in the control room.

After all, the person who appeared in his appearance really surprised him.

In Kudo Yusaku's memory, there weren't many people who possessed this level of disguise skills.

Kuroba Toichi, Kuroba Kaito.

His wife, Yukiko Kudo, as well as Chen En, and now Sharon from the Black Organization.

Since none of the four mentioned above could possibly have appeared at that time, his first thought was that Sharon Vineyard was the one who made the move.

However, because the situation changed later, he removed this possibility from his speculation and waited until there were no outsiders nearby before asking Yukiko.

Kudo Yusaku was unaware that Kuroba Chikage also possessed the art of disguise.

He now thinks it makes sense.

He simply felt that it wasn't impossible for Kuroba Chikage, as Kuroba Toichi's wife, to know the art of disguise.

There wasn't much discussion on this topic.

After all, Kaito Kid's operation had already failed, and he had only faced off against Kaito Kid once before, so there was no need for him to summarize his experience.

The most pressing issue right now is not Kaito Kid.

It was the Black Organization.

Kaito Kid isn't exactly a threatening opponent, but the existence of the Black Organization does pose a real threat to their lives.

If it weren't for the fact that no trace of the Black Organization has been found to date...

He probably wasn't even in the mood to go and check out the Suzuki Foundation exhibition hall.

"Yusaku, I find something a little strange."

"Why did your wife suddenly return to Tokyo? Didn't you tell me before that your wife and teacher were settling down in the United States for research?"

"Did you come back just to help Kaito?"

Yukiko Kudo said, somewhat puzzled.

This possibility cannot be ruled out.

However, she felt that this possibility was quite low, because the second-generation Phantom Thief Kid had committed thefts more than once or twice.

The dangers they encountered were countless.

It shouldn't be enough for Suzuki Jirokichi and the Four Guardians to make her make a special trip to Tokyo.

After all, she hadn't come back before.

"It's obviously impossible that she came back to Tokyo just for Kaito Kuroba; she must have had other purposes for coming back this time."

"Perhaps it's an investigation into a mysterious organization."

"Or perhaps there is some other important matter that requires her to come back in person to handle."

In response to Yukiko Kudo's question.

Kudo Yusaku remained silent for a moment.

He gently stroked his chin with his fingers before giving a possible answer and saying.

I think it's the latter.

“If it’s the former, I think Kuroba Chikage might not need to come back in person; Chen En will solve all the problems.”

That doesn't seem wrong.

Yukiko Kudo, who had initially wanted to retort, thought for a moment and then nodded.

With Chen En's combat prowess.

The Black Organization would never be able to gain favor with Chen En if it showed its face, let alone the mysterious organization, which was even less powerful than the Black Organization.

So it must be the second one.

but.

If it were the second possibility, Yukiko Kudo couldn't think of anything.

Compared to his teacher, Kuroba Toichi.

Yukiko Kudo knew far too little about Chikage Kuroba, making it impossible for her to make any judgments under these circumstances.

However, at this very moment...

Yusaku Kudo led Yukiko Kudo to the study and then turned on the computer.

His fingers flew across the keyboard.
