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

Chapter 121 The Unexpected Detective
Is Zun Du fake? Is Kamen Rider dead?
Chen En was taken aback.

That's incredibly dedicated! The actor really dies when the script says "die"?

Is this a bit?
Normally, Chen En would definitely not believe Suzuki Sonoko's statement.

However, this situation is not normal.

As Sonoko Suzuki exclaimed in surprise, a system light screen popped up in front of him.

[A serious incident threatening Gotham City's safety has been detected nearby!]

As Batman, you have a duty to maintain order in Gotham City. Please arrive at the scene immediately and apprehend the criminal before they flee, or stop them from committing further crimes during their commission!

[Difficulty level assessed as low; completing this task will reward you with 20 points!]

Chen En: ?
Being an actor in Beika Town is a high-risk profession, whether it's a stage actor or a television actor.

They might end up actually dead instead of actually dead.

He turned to look at the stage where the words "Next episode, the death of Kamen Rider" had just been spoken.

But there was no Kamen Rider on stage, and the actors playing the villain Dark Alien and the hero princess were also standing in the same spot.

Upon seeing this, Chen En was immediately stunned.

He immediately looked around, finally fixing his gaze on the entertainment venue surrounded by a large crowd.

Bungee jumping.

Above the bungee jumping platform, staff shouted loudly towards the waterway below.
"Hosono, how are you? Are you alright?"

—It seems the victim's surname this time is Hosono.

Chen En looked at Suzuki Sonoko next to him.

At this moment, Sonoko Suzuki also seemed a little flustered and said,

"I just saw the actor who plays Kamen Rider jump off a bungee jumping platform, and then the rope snapped in mid-air, and he fell straight into the water!"

"Ah, what would happen if someone fell into the water from this height?"

Of course he'd die, is that even a question?
Chen En shook his head.

The bungee jumping platform must be high, otherwise it won't provide the thrill.

However, the corresponding safety risks will also increase.

It's fair to say that engaging in extreme sports like bungee jumping is basically playing with your life.

Countless people die each year from extreme sports.

Chen En said softly,

"I'll go over and take a look."

Sonoko Suzuki, standing nearby, nodded with some concern.
"Then you have to be careful."

Chen En simply smiled at this.
"I'm Batman, this kind of danger is nothing to me."

He put his hands in his pockets and walked toward the waterway below the bungee jumping platform.

At this moment, the waterway was already crowded with people.

There were adults and children about the same age as Conan.

However, upon seeing Chen En, they instinctively stepped aside to make way for him.

For some reason, they had a feeling that this person was terrifying.

Chen En arrived at the waterway without any hindrance.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, looking down at the waterway below where he couldn't make out the specifics, a hint of doubt creeping into his mind.

—Normally speaking, a person falling from this height would not survive.

So why didn't the body float up?
If a person is not dead or unconscious, they should be struggling, so why is the water so calm?

Combined with the images seen on the system's light screen earlier.

Chen En immediately realized that this was probably another heinous murder.

So, it's time to go backstage and take a look. However, just as Chen En turned around, a familiar voice rang out.

"This is likely a heinous murder case."

"The bungee harness around the deceased's legs produced smoke when he landed, and then the harness detached from the rope and broke in two, falling onto the surface of the pool. This suggests that the bungee harness was of poor quality."

"In reality, someone had installed a small amount of gunpowder on one side of the bungee jump suit and blown it off."

Chen En turned his head to look in the direction from which the sound came.

The person standing beside the waterway was none other than Hakuba Saguru, whom he had met just last night at the Suzuki Foundation exhibition hall.

The renowned detective, who had returned from England, glanced down and then spoke.
"Staff, please begin the salvage operation immediately."

"Isn't this pool connected to the waterway that surrounds Nichiri Park? Get the rescue team to bring the boat over immediately. Forget about the effects of the show, getting them out is the priority."

"Otherwise, Nichire Land might repeat the same mistake as Dorobiga Land."

Hakuba Saguru naturally gave the orders.

However, the staff around him did not know who he was.

Naturally, no one would obey his orders.

He then took out his identification from his pocket and showed it to the staff member next to him.

— Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department advisor's badge.

This was to facilitate Hakuba Saguru's handling of matters and his contact with officers from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

Superintendent General Hakuba specially arranged the identification for Hakuba.

However, even if Superintendent General Hakuba didn't help, it wouldn't take Hakuba Saguru, as a detective, long to get one. Now, Hakuba Saguru is showing this ID to get the amusement park staff to cooperate with his instructions.

However, Hakuba Saguru was issuing instructions to his staff.

However, his gaze remained fixed on Chen En, never wavering, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

"Does it seem like you're always surrounded by heinous murders?"

The white horse inquired.

In response, Chen En simply replied,

"I'm not the one who's going to be unlucky."

Nothing more was said.

Chen En sent the information and location to Inspector Megure, while Hakuba Saguru also reported the incident to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

The two exchanged a glance, then said in unison,
"Shall we go check backstage first?"

— Chen En and Bai Ma Tan reached the same conclusion at the same time.

They noticed that there appeared to be water stains on the surface of the area below the bungee jumping platform.

Most people would hardly notice this detail.

This detail suggests that someone climbed out of the waterway below the bungee jumping platform and left. That person might be the real culprit, or perhaps a victim who has not yet been found.

Chen En turned around, greeted Sonoko Suzuki, and immediately moved towards the backstage area.

Meanwhile, after having his staff retrieve the body and keep others away from the scene, Hakuba Saguru quickly caught up with Chen En and followed him to the backstage of the amusement park.

At that moment, children near the bungee jumping platform were already crying loudly.

The heroes of justice vanished without a trace before their eyes.

Meanwhile, the evil Dark Aliens are still on stage. How can justice possibly defeat evil?

Seeing the crying children, the staff and parents were in a state of chaos.

Suzuki Sonoko sighed.

Seriously, who would want to harm the actor who wears the Kamen Rider suit?
