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

Chapter 230 The Magician of the Silver Wing
The white glider quickly returned to Kaito Kid's base.

Kaito Kuroba unfastened his hang glider and breathed a sigh of relief, recalling the harrowing experience he had just gone through.

Fortunately, because of Chen En's performance, he had Grandpa Terai upgrade his equipment ahead of time.

Otherwise, if we still use the same old equipment,
If he gets shot while on the hang glider, he'll really be crashing!

"Oh, Phantom Thief Kid, you're back?"

Koizumi Akako looked up, a teasing smile on her face, and said...
"How did it go this time? Were you bitten by a poisonous snake?"

this operation.

It was actually just a smokescreen by Kaito Kuroba.

He never intended to steal the gems from the tree in the Cosmic Theater.

He only realized that the zookeepers would interfere during his actions.
So, by taking advantage of this operation to lower the police's guard, they also lured the zoo staff out.

Koizumi Akako was naturally also paying attention to the situation here.

She watched as Kaito Kuroba sat on the sofa as if nothing had happened before continuing,

"I saw it! Is Batman helping you deal with Snake?"

With the help of the magic crystal ball,
Even without other means of observation, Koizumi Akako was perfectly clear about what had happened on the scene.

Upon hearing the word "Batman," Terai Kinosuke immediately poked his head out and asked,
Did anyone mention Young Master Chen En just now?

"I remember that Young Master Chen En was invited by Young Master Kaito to go to the Suzuki Foundation's exhibition hall to impersonate Phantom Thief Kid and steal the Jewel Emperor, Emerald Emperor. How could he possibly come to the Space Theater to help Young Master Kaito?"

"Young Master Chen En's hang glider also has a propulsion system?"

—That's definitely an act.

Kaito Kuroba didn't even bother to comment.

Ever since he learned that his equipment and Chen En's equipment were both imported from the same person, he knew that if he requested improved equipment, Dr. Agasa could quickly provide it.

It's highly likely that there's stock available, or that someone has already placed an order and has the blueprints.

His thruster glider was in this situation. From receiving the order from Dr. Agasa to making the glider and having Terai Kinosuke bring it over, it only took a few hours in total.

If it weren't for the readily available design blueprints, he would have simply swallowed the propulsion glider whole!
"Oh, come on, let's not talk about Batman."

"Can't you just call him Chen En like Grandpa Terai and I do? Don't you find it strange to keep calling him Batman? After all, where is there any real Batman in reality?"

Koizumi Akako simply smiled at this.

People like Terai Kinosuke and Kuroba Kaito, who don't know magic, can't see what the prophecy shown in her crystal ball looks like. Chen En's image in the crystal ball from beginning to end is that of Batman from the comics.

Referring to that guy as Chen Enlai would seem somewhat disrespectful.

Koizumi Akako gracefully sat opposite Kuroba Kaito, moved her broom slightly back, and then asked lightly,
"Kaito Kid, you're going to Hakodate City next, right?"

"Ah, to be precise, it's not going to Hakodate City, but that private plane to Hakodate City. Who are you planning to replace to get close to Maki Juri and steal that Destiny Gem?"

—That's a good question.

However, Kaito Kuroba already had a plan in mind and replied,
"Xinzhuang Gong."

"I'll go gather some more information about Shinjō Kō tomorrow. Once the disguise mask is finished, I'm confident our trip to Hakodate the day after tomorrow will be smooth sailing!"

You're very confident.

Koizumi Akako nodded in agreement. She didn't doubt that Kuroba Kaito was capable of such a thing, and besides, the prophecy about the aerial catastrophe that she had originally seen had now been changed because of someone.

There shouldn't be any problems with the flight to Hakodate this time.

However, the thought that Kaito Kuroba would be leaving Tokyo for Hakodate for such a long time filled Koizumi Akako with a strange sense of loss.

It feels strange that the school is without Kaito Kuroba.

"Batman probably won't be going with you this time."

"I wonder what Batman is planning to do in Tokyo."

------

"Haha, Nakamori, your strength is far inferior to mine, Chaki Shintaro!"

"Look, I thwarted Kaito Kid's evil plan to steal the Destiny Gem with just one move, while you, without even seeing Kaito Kid's face, were taken down by him."

"The Jade Emperor was taken by Phantom Thief Kid because of this. Don't you feel ashamed?"

Chaki Shintaro waved the stack of tickets in his hand.

He was quite pleased with himself and showed off to Nakamori Ginzo. This wasn't a sudden lapse of judgment, but rather the result of long-standing resentment.

Previously on the Queen Cerissa,

Chaki Shintaro and Nakamori Ginzo had a fight before, and now that they've finally gained an advantage, there's no reason for them not to join the team!
"Now it seems that dealing with Phantom Thief Kid isn't so difficult after all."

"I think the failure to capture the Phantom Thief Kid and protect the jewels on the Queen Cerissa was entirely due to your disobedience and reckless orders to the officers!"

"Nakamori, watch closely, I'll give you a demonstration game, show you how it's done!"

"Next time, just do as I say. Even if you can't catch Phantom Thief Kid, at least make sure he can't steal the jewel, understand?"

Hearing what Chaki Shintaro said.

Nakamori Ginzo couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.

—Damn it, your ability to protect the Gem of Destiny has absolutely nothing to do with your strength.

I don't think it's because you're too strong that you're blocking Kaito Kid.

It was all a smokescreen; Kaito Kid never intended to steal the Destiny Jewel!
"That despicable Phantom Thief Kid!"

Nakamori Ginzo was so angry at Chaki Shintaro's behavior that he gritted his teeth.

The thought that this person was still his superior in name and in office made Nakamori Ginzo's face turn even redder. He clenched his fists tightly, looking quite exasperated.

—He's determined to achieve something big.

Let those Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officers who look down on him see his strength as the nemesis of Phantom Thief Kid!
"Since the real purpose of this operation is to steal the Emerald Emperor, the Destiny Stone is just a feint."

"So, after getting the Emerald Emperor, Phantom Thief Kid's next target must be the Destiny Gem! According to the news, Maki Juri will take the Destiny Gem by plane to Hakodate City."

"That means Phantom Thief Kid will be going to Hakodate City next!"

As Nakamori Ginzo thought this, his eyes narrowed.

Alright, Phantom Thief Kid, just wait until I bring the Metropolitan Police Department's main force to Hakodate City to arrest you!

This time, you will absolutely not have another chance to escape!
