Sonoko Suzuki: ?

Am I the only person with a generic face?!

At that very moment, a middle-aged man dressed in white and wearing a white sun hat quietly stood in the last row of the audience.

Watching the baseball team come to life in front of me.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and then said.

"What a nasty place..."

Chapter 1136 The Demon of Koshien

Chen En's keen intuition, unique to fighters, made him instantly turn his head to look at the spot where the man in the white sun hat should have been standing.

However, the place was now deserted.

He vaguely sensed a hint of malice emanating from that place, but couldn't pinpoint its source.

Therefore, Chen En narrowed his eyes slightly, placed his fingers lightly on his bat belt, and then said.

"Yuanzi, I'm going out for a bit."

"Do you need any drinks? I'll bring them over for you."

These words puzzled Sonoko Suzuki. She blinked blankly and then asked with some confusion.

"But if I want to buy a drink, can't I just go to the water vendor over there?"

"Although that person does look a bit like me..."

At this point, even Sonoko Suzuki herself couldn't help but laugh at the resemblance between the two.

She finally said with a grin.

"Ah-en, hurry back!"

Chen En nodded slightly, then placed his fingers on the edge of his bat belt before walking through the audience and disappearing backstage.

Such actions surprised Hattori Heiji.

In his impression, Chen En was not the kind of person who would make baseless accusations.

Now that he has suddenly and inexplicably done this, he probably sensed some danger on the Koshien baseball field.

However, despite being a famous detective himself, Hattori Heiji did not sense anything amiss here, which made him somewhat hesitant.

He believed that his status as a famous detective was not much lower than Chen En's.

If Chen En could notice anything amiss here, then there's no reason he wouldn't have; it's too strange...

Hattori Heiji secretly perked up a bit.

Goro Otaki, standing nearby, looked in the direction where Chen En had disappeared and asked with some curiosity.

"Heiji, who was that person who just left?"

"Is he a famous detective like Mr. Mori? But I don't think I've ever seen him appear in the news as a famous detective..."

Before Goro Otaki could finish speaking, Kogoro Mouri exclaimed in shock.

"No way, Officer Otaki, you don't even know who that person who just left was?"

"He is Chen En."

"Although I hate to admit it, I have to admit that that kid seems to be a cut above me in every way."

"Although he is not well-known as a detective, he is a famous detective whose talent is on par with mine, and he is also the chairman and founder of the famous Chen En Enterprise."

"Just a few days ago, it even made the headlines in Tokyo!"

Kogoro Mouri praised Chen En for a while.

Goro Otaki was stunned by these words. He never expected that the seemingly ordinary person who had just left was actually such a powerful guy.

He said blankly.

"Oh, Chen En, you're really awesome!"

"Then it seems we can rest easy!"

At this moment, Chen En, who had arrived backstage, had already pulled out a small flying device from inside his bat belt.

He selected a suitable altitude, then launched the aircraft, using Dr. Agasa's advanced technology to remotely control it, bypassing the television station's broadcast cameras and soaring into the air.

Chen En wanted to use the surveillance cameras installed on this aircraft to view the entire Koshien Stadium at once.

Although he doesn't really believe in metaphysics.

The main issue is that people don't believe he's as mysterious as Kogoro Mouri, Conan, or Heiji Hattori, who are considered plague gods.

However, he still believed that Kogoro Mouri, Conan, and Heiji Hattori were jinxes, and now that two of the three jinxes had appeared at Koshien Stadium, it was unlikely that nothing would happen there.

Moreover, he had just sensed a bit of malice, as if someone wanted to harm him.

"...Who exactly wants to make a move on the Koshien baseball field?"

Chen En's eyes narrowed slightly.

The Tokyo National Stadium once hosted 57,000 people, which led to his confrontation with and defeat of Takeo Miura, the de facto head of the Steel Society.

Now that Takeo Miura is very likely to be resurrected, coupled with that inexplicable malice just now, he couldn't help but wonder about the current situation at Koshien Stadium.

Does Black Mask intend to repeat the hostage situation at Tokyo National Stadium at Koshien Stadium?

While Chen En hesitated, Hattori Heiji and the others also focused their attention on the ball game.

And when the game enters a crucial moment.

A slightly hunched old man carrying a bag passed in front of Sonoko Suzuki and the others. Sonoko and the others immediately turned their heads to avoid the old man and looked at the situation on the field.

It wasn't until the old man walked past the crowd and disappeared that Hattori Heiji vaguely felt that something was wrong, and subconsciously looked down at the ground.

Sure enough, an old-fashioned button phone had appeared on the ground sometime earlier.

It's highly likely that the old man who just passed by dropped it, or perhaps this old-fashioned keypad phone hides some kind of crisis that Chen En could be concerned about.

Hattori Heiji's attention was immediately diverted from the game, and he picked up the old-fashioned button phone on the ground to check the situation.

However, this old-fashioned keypad phone looked as if it had just been bought; there wasn't a single message or call record on it.

It's as if it was created specifically for this moment, leaving no trace.

Hattori Heiji's expression was slightly gloomy.

The next instant, the phone rang. He put the phone to his ear and pressed the answer button.

A stranger's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Did you enjoy watching it?

These nonsensical words left Hattori Heiji somewhat bewildered, but he still spoke in a deep voice.

"who are you?"

The stranger on the other end of the phone immediately spoke again.

"I asked you if you enjoyed watching it, are you deaf?"

Hattori Heiji's brows furrowed immediately.

He was a native of Kansai, and upon hearing the stranger speak like that, he immediately wanted to retort with his traditional Chinese question.

However, the people over there seemed to have anticipated his combo, so they immediately skipped the topic and continued talking.

"Whether you have fun or not, I'm definitely not happy."

"Looking at this terrifying and disgusting stadium in front of me, my heart is filled with despair. Let me tell you, I'm going to commit suicide here."

Upon hearing this, Hattori Heiji subconsciously said...

"If you want to commit suicide, just find somewhere to die. Don't bother other people."

The voice on the other end of the phone seemed to pause for a moment before continuing.

"Traveling alone is too lonely, so I want someone to accompany me on my journey..."

"Let's play a game."

"If you can find me, find me, the devil of Koshien."

Chapter 1137 The Rules of the Game: Victory or Defeat

...The demon of Koshien?

These words immediately caused a look of surprise to appear in Hattori Heiji's eyes.

He had never heard of this criminal before, so his first reaction was to ask him about it.

"So what if you say that?"

"What exactly do you want? And why did you call?"

Heiji Hattori tapped his fingers lightly on the phone's casing.

He began to recall everything that had happened since he entered Koshien Stadium, and finally concluded that the phone must have been left by the person who had passed by him earlier.

Although everyone's attention was focused on the live game at the time, they didn't pay much attention.

But based on that fleeting memory, he could still recall what the person looked like.

He was wearing white clothes, carrying a bag (the contents of which were unclear), and wearing a sun hat. He looked somewhat haggard and appeared to be over forty years old.

As Hattori Heiji said this, he turned his head to look in the direction Chen En had left.

It would be better to have other detectives come and investigate this matter together.
