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

Chapter 18 Quest [Bane: Origins]

At this moment, the system light screen within Chen En's field of vision turned an unusual red.

In most cases, red represents danger.

The supervillain involved in the current mission is undoubtedly one of Gotham City's most dangerous supervillains.

Bain.

By injecting venom into his body, he gained superhuman strength and intelligence, and combat skills comparable to Batman's. In his first appearance, he defeated Batman with an absolute advantage, creating one of Batman's most famous scenes: Bane's broken back.

Without a doubt, Bane is an extremely dangerous supervillain.

Moreover, unlike the Riddler who is Kaito Kid's counterpart.

Neither the Riddler nor Phantom Thief Kid possesses much fighting ability, so they are not very dangerous.

But Bain is an absolute dangerous individual.

Even Chen En's counterparts in Beika Town are likely far stronger than he is now in combat.

"so troublesome……"

Chen En said in a low voice.

His expression instantly turned serious.

Seeing this, Sonoko Suzuki and Ran Mouri, who were standing nearby, couldn't help but feel nervous.

It's worth noting that Chen En didn't show this expression when facing dangerous bank robbers armed with guns, but now he suddenly does when looking at Suzuki Sonoko. Could it be...?

Is there anything dangerous about Sonoko Suzuki?
Thinking of this, Ran Mouri immediately turned her head to look at Sonoko Suzuki.

Like her best friend, Sonoko Suzuki's first reaction was to suspect that she might have some dangerous items on her. She looked down at herself, turned around twice, but found nothing.

But she was still a little worried, so she looked around a bit more.

Chen En paid no attention to Sonoko Suzuki and Ran Mouri's actions.

His attention was focused on the system task details displayed on the screen.

[Quest: Bain - Origin]

The terrifying and evil Son of Gotham will soon appear in Gotham City. As Batman, you have a duty to stop Bane's criminal activities—or you can prevent Bane from ever coming into contact with the gas again, thus ending his criminal saga in the first place!

[Reward: The Holy Sword of Kind Physics!]

[Note: If you don't want to be subjected to Bane's infamous "Batman" scene, then you should start taking action now... Perhaps finding the Angel of Death to fill in for you in advance wouldn't be a bad option?]

Chen En's gaze quickly swept over the contents of the system panel.

Finally, it landed on the line of notes for the "Angel of Death" substitute.

—You're right, in the original comics, it was indeed the Angel of Death who defeated Bane and became the second Batman.

But the problem is, Beika Town has a damn death angel. Are we going to pin that title on Conan, make him the death angel, and then use his invincible death aura to kill the Beika Town version of Bane?

Batman of Beika Town squinted.

He didn't think it was of any use.

Conan doesn't necessarily have a so-called "death aura." It's just that wherever he goes, someone dies. In reality, cases constantly attract famous detectives to the vicinity.

Moreover, what are the conditions for triggering this task?
Why did he see Sonoko Suzuki and then a super villain mission called "Bane Origins" pop up?

Could it be that Sonoko Suzuki is Bane?
Chen En's gaze fell on Suzuki Sonoko.

Shake your head secretly.

It is obvious that Sonoko Suzuki could not possibly be Bane.

She bears absolutely no resemblance to Bane. Rather than saying Sonoko Suzuki is Bane, it's more accurate to say she's Bane's Venom, haha…

The venom Bane used?

Chen En's eyes widened slightly.

—No way?

Is Bane from Beika Town a match for Makoto Kyogoku? Sonoko Suzuki is a match for Bane's Venom, because when Sonoko is in danger, Makoto Kyogoku's fighting power visibly increases, and in the movie, he even transforms into a Super Saiyan...

Then... how can he sever the connection between Makoto Kyogoku and Sonoko Suzuki?

Are you going to kidnap Sonoko Suzuki ahead of time?

"Sheriff Gordon, I brought the tape recorder!"

Takagi Wataru's excited voice rang out from behind.

Inspector Megure's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was about to give Takagi Wataru a major test in his salary assessment for the month.

Seeing this, Takagi Wataru, who had been smiling just moments before, suddenly stopped smiling.

He placed the recorder on the table and honestly said,
"Inspector Megure, you can now use the recorder to play the audio."

Hearing this, Inspector Megure nodded in satisfaction.

Seriously, how could he possibly be Sheriff Gordon?

It's one thing for that amazing person to call him that, but for you to do the same seems a bit disrespectful to his profession.

"Alright, hurry up and send in the tape, let's hear what's going on."

"After confirming the situation is correct, take the remaining statements, then take the suspect back to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department for further questioning. Once that's done, we'll close the case. I'll treat you to ramen then!"

Inspector Megure shouted.

Upon hearing this, the other officers, whose enthusiasm had waned slightly, became excited again and their enthusiasm returned.

Although we can't continue playing the Inspector Megure joke, it's still related to Inspector Gordon.

However, if you achieve good results and then get treated to ramen by someone else afterward, that's pretty good too.

There's nothing to complain about.

He didn't turn around to look at Inspector Megure and the others who were fiddling with the tape recorder.

Chen En raised his head and looked seriously at Suzuki Sonoko.

"Miss Sonoko, please allow me to ask one more question..."

His attitude didn't seem like he was joking.

This made Sonoko Suzuki, who thought Chen En was just teasing her, raise her eyebrows and become serious.

Then, Sonoko Suzuki's face turned completely red.

Do you have a boyfriend now?

Chen En asked.

He doesn't really understand these tricks, so it's faster to go straight for the point than to go through all that trouble.

Although, in most universes, Bruce Wayne, the Batman, is a master of romance and social interaction.

However, the Batman of Beika Town is not like that.

He had little experience in this area and was just trying to see if he could complete the system-assigned task using this simplest and most convenient method.

If that doesn't work, he'll have to consider going back to find Makoto Kyogoku's phone number.

Isn't Makoto Kyogoku, that amazing guy, supposed to like challenging masters all over the world?

That's simple, isn't it? He could just send Kyogoku Makoto to Kyoto to find the Nine Dragon Balls' Iron Sword and have it fight Okita Souji VI, wouldn't that solve the problem? If neither of them can beat Kyogoku Makoto...

But what about the invincible Lupin III and his crew?
Iron Sword and Okita Souji VI are weakened in the Conan world, but Lupin III and his gang are not. Beating Kyogoku would be a piece of cake for them.
Why not just beat him back to the Martial God Style Dojo and have him retrain?
------

At this very moment, Conan, carrying two skateboards, was already standing outside the bank.

He was peering inside through the glass curtain wall.

Well, it seems we arrived a step too late.
