Knowing I'm short and you can't see me at all, you still deliberately look around to find me. You seem to need anesthesia. Or maybe my anesthesia didn't work?

Conan gave a disapproving look and asked in a low voice.

"Hattori, what are you looking at?"

"You're so engrossed in looking through the window, is there some crucial information you're investigating?"

Hearing this, Hattori Heiji fell silent for a moment.

He took a few steps back and then spoke.

"This information is indeed quite crucial."

"But that's not the information I want to investigate."

Conan: ?

Why are you playing riddles with me, kid?

A hint of confusion appeared in the eyes of the Grim Reaper elementary school student.

He then grabbed the windowsill with both hands and tried to move his body upwards, landing inside the window where he could see Ryoko Morozumi, who had just finished kissing the feng shui master.

Conan: ?

What happened?

A hint of doubt appeared in his eyes. He tapped his earphones lightly with his fingers and said softly.

"Noah's Ark, could you help me investigate this?"

"There is an unidentified man in Beikacho 4-chome now."

"He is not the head of household of Beika-cho 4-chome, Morozumi Akira, but he has a close relationship with Morozumi Akira's wife, Morozumi Ryoko. Anyone closely related to Morozumi Ryoko has appeared in the surveillance footage..."

Before Conan could finish speaking, Heiji Hattori whispered something in his ear.

"Feng shui master, that man is a feng shui master."

Upon hearing this, Conan added something.

Perhaps because there are not many feng shui masters left who can still operate and swindle in Tokyo, Noah's Ark quickly provided the feng shui master's name and information.

The super artificial intelligence voice spoke calmly.

"That feng shui master's name was Soga Misao."

"He was a college classmate of Akira Morozumi, the head of the household in Beika-cho 4-chome, but he was close to Ryoko Morozumi. However, it's a bit strange... it seems that Mr. Soga only became interested in Ryoko Morozumi after she married Akira Morozumi."

What could be the reason for this?

What else could it be? This person harbors the ambitions of a traitor like Cao Cao?

Conan and Heiji Hattori thought to themselves.

Then, Hattori Heiji's gaze fell on Soga Misao, who had come straight to the laundry room and was rummaging through something. A look of doubt appeared in his eyes, and then he heard the footsteps of Morozumi Ryoko.

Startled, he scooped up Conan and shrank to the side to prevent Ryoko Morozuki from looking out the window.

However, Ryoko Morozumi didn't seem to notice the strangeness at the window, and instead spoke to Misao Soga.

"What a pity, I wasn't there."

"I've kept the intimate video that Soga-sensei and I filmed in the hotel room in the most secret place in this room as a guarantee that Soga-sensei would stay with me after his divorce from his wife,"

"Alright, my husband will be back soon. Please change into your shower clothes quickly to avoid arousing his suspicion."

...What exactly are they talking about?

Conan and Heiji Hattori exchanged a glance.

I really can't understand what the adults are saying.

Is the adult world really this chaotic? Looking at it this way, maybe it's actually the right thing for Uncle Mori and Aunt Kisaki to live separately...

Chapter 872 Genda Takatoku and Morofushi Takaaki

Although I was quite surprised by the wall slam that Shizuka did inside.

However, Heiji Hattori and Conan wisely chose not to disturb them and quietly slipped away to the side.

He bent down, half-squatting beside Conan, and said with some confusion.

"Kudo, I remember Ran told me you went to see Chen En."

"Why are you back so soon?"

"When you went there, you made quite a fuss. Does this mean you've successfully usurped the throne? Are you going to take Batman's place now? Should we change Batman's uniform to blue?"

"I see you really like wearing blue blazers."

Conan: ?

Although I did say that I had long wanted to slay Batman and become Batman myself.

But you weren't even there, so why was this your first reaction?

Could it be that the blue-clad guys' ambition has become part of the underlying structure?

Conan's face darkened, and then he said.

"Chen En is not at the manor."

"I searched everywhere but couldn't find him. Then I went back to the Mouri Detective Agency and found that none of you were there. I called Ran to check the situation and then came here on my skateboard."

"By the way, didn't Chen En come this way?"

At this point, he glanced around curiously.

With Chen En's quirky and unpredictable information-gathering abilities...

Since Hattori Heiji's side has a high probability of finding the arsonist's next target, Chen En shouldn't be unable to do so, unless something unexpected happens, or Hattori Heiji has found the wrong person.

Conan stroked his chin.

"...If it were Chen En, he might already know the whole story of this case."

"If he really never came here from beginning to end, then this means that this is not the location of the next arsonist's crime, or that the key person to solving the case is not here."

"We really need to find Chen En."

I was just wondering why Conan was so obsessed with finding Heiji Hattori at the crime scene.

Upon hearing Conan's next words, he instantly lost his composure.

He raised an eyebrow slightly and couldn't help but complain.

"Kudo, what kind of personality do you have?"

"Could it be that spending too much time with Chen En has made me completely fooled? Even if that guy really is Batman from the comics, one of the world's top detectives."

"That's impossible to know the whole process of a case without going to the crime scene."

"Batman isn't some omnipotent god. Even if he's an armchair detective, he still needs to know something about the case, right?"

However, at this point, Hattori Heiji remembered that he and Mouri Kogoro had felt gazes when they were waiting at a traffic light. He looked in the direction of the gaze and felt that the person looked slightly familiar, but before he could recognize him, the car had already started moving.

Thinking about it now, that person seems to be...

It seems to be Chen En, right?

Hattori Heiji thought of this and immediately spoke up.

"Don't worry, Chen En can't possibly be investigating a case right now."

"I found this place entirely because I had helped a friend before, and that friend happened to be a friend of the wife of this homeowner. That's how I got firsthand information and found this place."

"Chen En's progress cannot be faster than mine."

"Besides, when Uncle Mori and I came this way, we saw that Chen En was eating with other people at the hotel. Do you think he was just eating? How could he possibly be here to solve a case?"

...eating with other people at the hotel?

At this point, Conan frowned slightly.

He was unaware of Chen En's plan to send Morofushi Takaaki to Tokyo to deal with the Red Hoods.

However, upon hearing that Chen En was unusually dining at a hotel with other people, he immediately realized that Chen En must be preparing some new plan and had even found helpers other than him.

It's perfectly normal for Batman to not take Robin with him on his missions.

But he's the Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era, not some Robin. How can Chen En leave him out?

"Seriously, once I find Chen En, I'm going to make him spill all his secrets."

Conan said angrily.

Although I don't know why Conan seems to harbor such deep resentment about this.

But Heiji Hattori didn't really want to get involved.

After all, this is a matter between Batman and Robin. He's just an outsider, so how can he interfere?

Compared to the love-hate relationship between Batman and Robin.

He's now more interested in visiting the so-called bat cave.

Since Chen En claims to be Batman and even has a Batsuit that's cooler than the comic book version, then the Batcave must be a completely new and enhanced version of the comic book version...

For example, giant mechanical dinosaurs, super artificial intelligence, and all sorts of mysterious technologies.

Just thinking about it makes me a little excited.

Perhaps we could start with Conan and suggest visiting the Bat Cave...

While Hattori Heiji and Conan were each lost in their own thoughts...

Conan's cell phone beeped with an incoming message.

He picked up his phone, somewhat puzzled, and looked at the sender of the letter.

The sender's name was clearly Ai Haibara.
