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

Hattori Heiji raised an eyebrow and said.

"Can those be the same?"

"Detective Koshien is just a low-budget program hosted by Nichiri TV, and there's not much news about it. But the program that the uncle participated in is a famous program that has already aired for more than 300 episodes."

"And as a famous detective in the Kanto region, shouldn't you have received an invitation as well?"

What you're saying makes sense.

Conan realized why Ran Mouri would say that.

He quickly pulled out his laptop from where he had hidden his things, opened his phone to check his email, but found that there were no invitation messages. He frowned and took out his phone to send a message to his mother.

The truth, however, left Conan somewhat confused.

Yukiko Kudo's side also stated that the Kudo family had not received any invitation to the so-called Detective Koshien tournament.

That's really strange.

Why didn't they invite him to this shoddy show?

Who else could be the most representative detective in the Kanto region besides him? Kogoro Mouri? Putting aside whether Kogoro Mouri is famous enough, is he even a high school detective?

Does going to high school make you a high school detective?

Conan muttered to himself.

"...Could it have been sent to Hakuba Saguru?"

Chapter 1116 Two Teams Seemingly Possessing an Explosive Causality

"...Is it finished?"

"It's a little later than I expected."

The next day, early morning, inside the bat cave.

Chen En held his phone to his ear, talking to someone.

"I understand. I'll transfer the remaining payment later."

His words caught Ai Haibara's attention.

This former member of the Black Organization, who had become increasingly lazy, was simply carrying a piece of bread and a glass of milk as he descended the stairs to the Bat Cave to see what Chen En was up to so early in the morning.

Her voice was somewhat muffled as she spoke.

Are you still investigating the incident where that black luxury car was blown up last night?

"I saw you running around all night last night. You should have investigated enough, right? I think this kind of small thing shouldn't be too difficult for you. After all, you're Sugar Batman."

Upon hearing this, Chen En turned to look at Ai Haibara, a hint of disapproval in his eyes.

I suspect you might be using a homophone to subtly criticize me, but I can't seem to find any evidence.

It seems I still need to find an opportunity to download this novel and see exactly which words Ai Haibara uses in the specific chapters, so that I can take strong action against this kind of pun that insults me.

However, Chen En still said...

"Instead of that, shouldn't you be heading to the Tokyo Big Sight now?"

"I'll handle things like explosions. You can just relax and watch your football league game."

Upon hearing this, Ai Haibara raised an eyebrow and said.

"Ye Caisan has gone out on business. Do you want Curaçao to drive me there?"

"Even if Curaçao were willing to deliver it, would you dare let her?"

Isn't that sending lambs to the slaughter?

Who knows if Curaçao might see some colorful neon lights halfway through his drive, instantly regain his memory, and suddenly wake up like a sleeping bear? Then we'll have to bet on whether Curaçao's morality or rationality will prevail.

Moreover, this person doesn't even have a driver's license, so how can he drive on the road?

That makes sense.

Chen En nodded slightly, without refuting.

Speaking of which, he was just about to go to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to monitor Kazumasa Nakaoka. Anyway, he was leaving around this time, so it didn't matter whether he went now or later.

It seems Professor Agasa is also planning to take the Detective Boys along, and they're probably on their way.

As for Conan... he should have started investigating Kogoro Mouri's matter by now.

He pressed a button, which immediately raised the garage door of the civilian modified car.

Seeing this, Ai Haibara quickly finished her breakfast, then went upstairs in small steps, carrying a backpack and coming downstairs with a Tokyo Spirits team cap on her head.

In addition, the other party was wearing a very casual outfit.

Those who know them go to watch a ball game, but those who don't might think they're going to Teitan Elementary School.

Do the team have that many support items?

Chen En raised his eyebrows slightly, but didn't investigate further.

Anyway, Ai Haibara knew what she was doing. After all, she was a real adult before she shrunk. As long as she didn't carry a backpack full of C4 bombs and become a suicide bomber at the event, it would be fine.

The modified civilian vehicle quickly departed from inside Chen En Manor and headed towards the Tokyo National Stadium.

Tokyo remains under tight security as always.

There's no other reason than the upcoming J-League match between Tokyo Spirits and Osaka Big at the Tokyo National Stadium today.

The last time, these two football teams also played a match at the Tokyo National Stadium.

As a result, the Tokyo National Stadium hostage crisis occurred that same day, with 57,000 people being taken hostage. Black Mask even used a bomb to blow up the entire Tokyo National Stadium, which was only recently rebuilt more than a month later.

Who knows if someone will plant a bomb at the Tokyo National Stadium again, since these two teams are playing again today?

As the saying goes, it's better to be prepared than not.

"There's a football league match today!"

"I really lucked out by choosing to patrol last night. I don't have to patrol today, so I can just stay in the office and watch the game live. I'm so happy."

Takagi Wataru grinned and showed off to Chiba next to him.

Officer Chiba, who was on duty all day, turned pale, straightened his clothes, and then snorted coldly before leaving the Criminal Investigation Department with Inspector Shiratori.

If it weren't for the fact that you two are both police officers in the Criminal Investigation Department, you wouldn't have been allowed to go on duty together last night!

Just as most of the criminal investigation officers left to begin their patrols.

Takagi Wataru suddenly heard a somewhat familiar sound of footsteps, but one that wouldn't normally come from this direction. He looked up in surprise in the direction the footsteps were coming from and asked.

"Detective White Horse, you're here today too?"

Generally speaking, unless there's a particularly difficult criminal case, Hakuba Saguru probably won't come.

The Criminal Investigation Department hasn't received any reports of serious murders.

Hakuba Saguru simply nodded slightly to Takagi Wataru, then took out a warrant that needed to be signed directly by his father, Superintendent General Hakuba, and handed it to Takagi Wataru. He didn't even glance at the sports game being broadcast on the TV on the wall before speaking.

"I want to speak with Kazuya Nakaoka, the speeding offender who was detained last night."

...Is it really necessary to make such a fuss over a speeding offense?

Takagi Wataru blinked, but nodded nonetheless.

This is a warrant personally signed by Superintendent General Hakuba.

As a regular police officer in the Criminal Investigation Department, he had no right to refuse. Besides, the matter was indeed legal and compliant. Taking Hakuba Saguru to talk to Nakaoka Kazumasa wouldn't cause any trouble, would it?

Takagi Wataru quickly took Nakaoka Kazumasa out of the detention cell and into the interrogation room.

According to normal procedures, at least one police officer must be present when the police are questioning someone in the interrogation room. Therefore, Takagi Wataru had to put the ball game aside and accompany Hakuba Saguru to complete this conversation.

However, as soon as Takagi Wataru entered the interrogation room, Sato Miwako came over to inquire about the situation, and then told Takagi Wataru to continue watching the game, while she sat next to him as a recorder.

On one hand, she knew that Wataru Takagi really enjoyed watching live sports games.

On the other hand, Sato Miwako knew that since Hakuba Saguru had personally come down to question a speeding offender, then this speeding offender must not be as simple as just speeding on the surface; there must be something else behind it.

This famous detective, who returned from studying in England, is not the kind of detective who looks down on small-scale cases.

After Hakuba Saguru sat down, Nakaoka Kazuya, sitting opposite him, frowned slightly and asked a question.

"Um, what do you mean by this?"

"I only sped, right? At most, I also illegally modified the motorcycle and drove recklessly. I've already paid the fine and am still in jail, so why are you still asking me?"

Hakuba Saguru wasn't in a hurry. He simply took out his pocket watch, glanced at the time, closed it, and said...

“5月23日星期天上午8点23分24秒……”

He lowered his eyes, looked at Nakaoka Kazuya in front of him, and said.

"As the investigator who reopened the case of Tomofumi Honura's death, I'm asking you, who had a close relationship with Tomofumi Honura, about the specific circumstances of that year... Tell me, what do you know?"

Chapter 1117 What? Batman forces a kind-hearted young man riding a motorcycle to jump into the sea and commit suicide?

At the entrance of the Tokyo National Stadium.

Professor Agasa, in his yellow Volkswagen Beetle, had been waiting for some time with the members of the Detective Boys.

However, his mind wasn't entirely on the upcoming football league. He was holding a bucket of popcorn, seemingly lost in thought, until Chen En's modified car came into view, which brought him back to his senses.

Yuan Tai, standing next to him, was also holding a bucket of popcorn, chewing it with relish.

Only the more observant Mitsuhiko noticed that Professor Agasa seemed to have something on his mind, so he asked in a low voice.

"Professor Agasa, what's wrong?"

Dr. Agasa answered instinctively.
