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

However, in the next instant, his regret turned into terror, and he screamed repeatedly.

"Batman, what are you doing? Stop it! Stop it!"

"Just because you're Batman doesn't mean you can actually fly! I still have tons of money to spend!"

Without hesitation, Chen En pressed the button, turned the car around, and flew away in the Batmobile. To everyone else, this scene seemed like he was deliberately courting death.

This caused the biker gangs to gasp in surprise once again.

"Is it really a plan to trade one man for one with Batman?"

"Sir, you are truly talented and righteous, paving the way for the survival of our Tokyo biker gang!"

Just as they were filled with admiration, bat wings suddenly extended from both sides of the Batmobile, allowing it to glide through the air. The thrusters at the rear propelled the Batmobile directly toward the person falling into the water.

Chen En silently estimated the distance between that person and the surface of Tokyo Bay.

Then, with a slight frown, he pressed the button again without blinking, and the Batmobile door opened instantly. Lorenzo was so startled that he quickly grabbed the seatbelt, while he himself flipped out, pulled out the grappling hook from the Batmobile belt, and swung it around.

The grappling hook instantly wrapped around the body of the criminal who had jumped into the sea, forcefully pulling him away from the motorcycle handlebars he was gripping tightly.

Under Lorenzo's awe-inspiring gaze.

Chen En grabbed the body of the criminal who had jumped into the sea and tossed it to Lorenzo behind him. Then he closed the Batmobile door again and activated the diving mode just as the Batmobile was about to land.

The Batmobile was thus hidden on the surface of Tokyo Bay.

The citizens watching from the Rainbow Bridge were quite disappointed, feeling that Batman was being dishonest, keeping everything to himself and not letting everyone else have a gossip session.

Takagi Wataru, who had been keeping a close eye on the situation, reluctantly turned his gaze away at this moment.

At Sato Miwako's invitation, he led Nakaoka Kazuya into the car, and they rode in a Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department patrol car towards the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department headquarters.

Chapter 1106 I think we can do it while it's hot...

"...Let me double-check."

"Are you sure you didn't accidentally kill him, like in that Spider-Man movie where Spider-Man catches the female lead but fails and she falls to her death?"

A deserted artificial island near the Rainbow Bridge.

Lorenzo's gaze fell on the so-called person in front of him.

He looked up again, asking somewhat uncertainly.

"If you didn't kill him, then why is he already dead?"

Standing beside him, Chen En said expressionlessly.

"Is it possible that he was already dead from the beginning?"

A body that should have been dead was previously found in an abandoned warehouse, the site of the bomb deal.

After investigating, the Japanese Public Security Bureau concluded that the incident was likely orchestrated by the supernatural forces. They specifically summoned the Onmyoji (yin-yang master) from the Onmyōryō (Yin-yang Bureau) to assist in the investigation, but ultimately failed to identify the person responsible for the incident.

And now, in front of me is a guy who is already dead, yet he can plant bombs and race cars with others.

Undoubtedly, this is exactly the same situation as the body found in the bomb trading warehouse, which explains why someone died yesterday, but the time of death was many days ago.

"I know, I know, I was just joking with you."

Lorenzo laughed twice.

“We people of the United States have seen it all.”

"Don't tell me you didn't kill anyone. So what if you really killed two people? Reality isn't a comic book. Nobody thinks it's a big deal for a superhero to kill two people."

He didn't say much, but bent down to examine the corpse that was already dead but could still move.

Of course, that was before when it could still move.

After falling off the bridge, it completely lost its ability to move, as if the manipulator behind it decided to abandon the corpse the moment it was at its smallest, and directly cut off control.

Koizumi Akako's figure slowly floated down from mid-air.

While Lorenzo wasn't looking behind him, the Scarlet Witch whispered something in Chen En's ear.

"...This looks slightly familiar."

Does it look slightly familiar?

Chen En turned his head to look at Koizumi Akako beside him, a look of doubt appearing in his eyes.

Since Koizumi Akako felt that the corpse looked familiar, it meant that this must be someone Koizumi Akako knew, or that the corpse had the aura of some kind of magical item that Koizumi Akako recognized?

He didn't speak, but waited for Koizumi Akako to finish speaking.

The Scarlet Witch had originally intended to keep him in suspense, but seeing that Chen En didn't seem to respond, she spoke somewhat listlessly.

"It should be some kind of magical item that I've seen before."

"I'm not quite sure what it is. I need to go back and look through it to see which kind of magical item it is... You know, I've never really cared much about magical items."

I can see that now, otherwise your various spellcasting materials wouldn't be being used up so quickly.

Chen En muttered a curse to himself.

Koizumi Akako comes from a family of magicians that has existed for generations.

As a result, she used up magical materials like mermaid tears until they ran out of stock, and she would smash magic mirrors and magic crystal balls whenever things didn't go her way, and would make a new one at the drop of a hat.

You said that Koizumi Akako is the kind of person who focuses on magical items?

If Koizumi Akako herself said that, she would probably laugh.

Chen En didn't say much, but took a few steps forward to the body.

Koizumi Akako, meanwhile, piloted her broom, floating upwards once more to avoid Lorenzo's gaze as he turned around. The North American great magician raised an eyebrow and tentatively asked...

"Hey, I think I just felt someone behind me."

"Batman, is that your animal friend?"

Chen En squatted down beside the corpse, his gaze fixed on the corpse's face, and spoke in a hoarse voice.

Has anyone ever told you that I have a group of friends who form the Justice League?

It's normal for Batman to have the Justice League behind him.

But if Batman has the Justice League behind him, that's just unbelievable.

Lorenzo shrugged and didn't reply.

Are you kidding me?

Aside from Green Arrow, which superhero from the Justice League wouldn't be outrageous in real life? There's no such thing as Kryptonite to counter Superman in reality. At most, you could show Green Lantern some yellow paint or give Martian Manhunter a fire.

He just stared at the corpse in front of him, his eyes darting around, as if he were plotting something wicked.

Chen En ignored everything else and simply reached out and gently wiped the corpse's cheek.

He withdrew his hand, which was covered by protective gear, and his gaze fell on the white powder on his fingers. He narrowed his eyes slightly, took out the evidence bag from his bat belt, put it away, and then put it back in the hidden compartment.

However, there was no direct contact with the white powder.

However, Chen En was basically able to determine what it was.

This is some kind of cosmetic powder.

The reason he felt like he was looking at a fake person when he looked at that person's face was because the dead person's face was covered in makeup powder and that a different kind of disguise technique was used, different from the Phantom Thief Kid school.

This kind of disguise technique can only modify the deceased's original appearance to make them look younger or older.

It was based entirely on the deceased's original facial skeleton, and the appearance of this person in the previous magical prophecy mirror was perhaps a little too obvious in terms of bone structure. It was as if this guy's disguise technique bypassed the skin and flesh and directly modeled it on the skull.

But that's precisely where the strange thing lies.

Chen En noticed that the deceased's face was far from being exposed to the bone.

The degree of decomposition and damage, and the fact that he could even smell formaldehyde, indicated that the body had been specially preserved.

...In theory, such people are not hard to find, because there are not many places that would do such special treatment to preserve corpses.

The only problem is the deceased's face. For some unknown reason, it has been disfigured. Chen En can only see the facial muscles, not the face itself. It will take some time to model the Noah's Ark in an attempt to reconstruct the face.

"By the way, Batman, do you think this thing is dead?"

Lorenzo's voice suddenly rang out from the side.

The North American great magician, who specialized in unorthodox methods, raised an eyebrow and said with a grin.

"I think we can do it while it's hot..."

Chen En: ?

What are you doing? Building a Gundam?

Watch me punch you into a super jigsaw puzzle!

Chen En narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a hint of disapproval.

To avoid actually getting a bat-shaped iron fist in his face, Lorenzo immediately said.

"I mean, we can use the Retrospection spell while it's still hot."

"I bet the person who did this must have a magical artifact that has undergone several transformations and a lack of basic magical knowledge; otherwise, they should have just planted a bomb inside the corpse and blown it up."

"Oh, not necessarily."

The great magician of North America stroked his chin.

"According to the plot of detective comics."

"It's also possible that the person is some supervillain you know who deliberately arranged for the corpse to make this kind of deal, then let the corpse fall into the sea, and finally jump out and say that Batman killed so-and-so or something."

"...Okay, okay, enough joking, I'll get to work now."
