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

Chapter 292 This is how we fight! No, this is the only way we can fight!

My name is Ran Tian.
Because I was short of money and only had one bicycle, I targeted the elderly, the weak, and the disabled for robbery. This ensured that the victims couldn't catch up with my bicycle on foot.

However, during the last robbery ten days ago, I am certain that I was seen by someone, and that person even called the police.

Even though the person was just an elementary school student and didn't recognize me as the murderer, I decided to strike first, just in case. After all, given the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's increasingly swift and brutal methods...

No one can say for sure whether this small flaw will lead to my arrest.

I miscalculated.

------

Someda observed Kojima Genta for a period of time.
Having basically determined Kojima Genta's movements and preferences, they began searching for a way to eliminate him. Their first attempt was to assassinate him in a dark tunnel, but they failed to catch him.

Later, he tried to crash into a motorcycle he bought from a second-hand market, but the crash went astray, and he ended up having to pay the city hall a sum of money.

Now that the letters on the sign have been cut off in advance, the plan to wait for Genta Kojima to stand under the Kamen Rider gashapon machine as usual, and then have the letters crush him to death, has been ruined.

Someda finally realized something.
There's no point in playing those fancy games. Instead of going through all that trouble, you might as well carry a folding knife in your pocket, approach Genta Kojima late at night, stab him a dozen times, and then run away.

The bag could have gone undetected by the police, but unfortunately, it's already too late to discover this method now.

Amidst the chatter of his friends, Kojima Genta seemed to have discovered something and headed straight for the station building where he had first seen him. Therefore, no matter how unwilling Someda was, he had to take action now.

Otherwise, by the time Kojima Genta and the shop owner confirmed who the person who had their hair dyed was, it would be too late.

Fortunately, the elementary school students who had been following Genta Kojima had already dispersed.
Even the adult received a phone call and had to leave early due to other commitments.

All he had to do was put on a mask, catch up with Genta Kojima, stab that kid dozens of times in the elevator, and then walk away. It was simple, easy—he could do it.

Just as Genta Kojima entered the elevator of the station building...
Ran Tian, ​​panting heavily, rushed towards the elevator door, but she was still a step too late.
The elevator doors were about to close.

But at that moment, someone pressed the "open" button in the elevator, causing the elevator to open.

Someda looked up and glanced at who had pressed the start button.
I don't recognize him. He's wearing a mask and a hat, and looks like someone in the same industry.

No problem, he brought a knife, while his colleague didn't.
Since the man had pressed the start button, he could consider waiting until the man left before taking action.

"come in."

The passengers in the elevator said with smiles.

Someda suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
But he still swallowed hard and went inside.

Genta Kojima looked up at him with some curiosity and said,

"You're that older brother from the hair salon I used to work with!"

Someda gave a somewhat forced smile.

Only a slight change in facial expression could be seen through the mask.
he said,
"Yes, I just suddenly remembered that I did see the murderer, and I even saw him with you at the hair salon, so I came with you, haha..."

Genta Kojima said this.
In order to keep his identity a secret, he had no choice but to kill the person behind him as well.

It's a real shame, as Someda originally intended to spare this person's life.

The elevator gradually ascended.

We've arrived on the third floor.

Someda slowly took his hand out of his pocket, and at that moment he suddenly swung the folding knife he was holding.
The next moment, he stabbed directly at Kojima Genta's vest.

He needed to kill Kojima Genta and the person next to him before the elevator reached the seventh floor.
Then, go in and kill the hair salon owner.

Escape from here before the police arrive!
Perfect plan!
However, Someda miscalculated.

Just as the folding knife was flung out, aimed at Genta Kojima, a hand gripped his wrist. The intense pain caused this cowardly robber to cry out in agony.
He couldn't even hold the folding knife in his hand, and it fell to the ground.

It was only then that Genta Kojima noticed what was happening behind him.

He looked at Chen En with a mixture of surprise and a sense of entitlement.

—This is Batman!

Dealing with an ordinary robber would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it?
"I'll be going out for a bit," Chen En said softly.

"I'll have a brief chat with him."

Although I have some doubts

But Genta Kojima still pressed the open button and went out on the fifth floor.

In Ran Tian's despairing gaze,
The elevator doors on the fifth floor slowly closed.

The next moment, a scream suddenly rang out in the elevator!

"what!!!"

------

At this very moment, on the seventh floor,
Conan and Ai Haibara cautiously staked out the area with the other members of the Detective Boys.
They were waiting for the elevator to reach the seventh floor.

Then he took action and subdued the criminal.

Inspector Megure will arrive in one minute.

so----

There was no time to think about it.

The elevator reached the seventh floor, and the doors slowly opened.

A figure stood at the elevator door.
Is it Someda?
Conan and Ai Haibara were both startled.
Two anesthetic needles were fired at the very first frame.

The next moment, Someda, who had already been beaten up, received two more doses of tranquilizer.
He immediately lost consciousness and fell forward to the ground.

He fell asleep.

He slept peacefully.

Chen En, who had been standing behind Someda, walked out of the elevator as if nothing had happened.

He originally wanted to tease Conan and Ai Haibara,
Unfortunately, it didn't work, and Someda even had to take two more doses of hypnotic injections.
However, he deserves it.

This mourner specifically targets the elderly, the weak, the sick, and the disabled; this is too good for him!

"Brother Chen En, don't be afraid, we're here to help!"

"Don't beat the robbers too badly this time; we still have to write reports when we get back..."

Inspector Megure led Sato, Takagi, and their group up the stairs to the seventh floor.
They all looked down at the person lying on the ground.

With a bruised and swollen face, Ran Tian looked as if he had been physically hypnotized.
Then, he looked up at Chen En.

—Suddenly, I have a feeling that it's hard to say who the murderer is.

Now I'll have to write a report again when I get back.

Those who know the truth will understand that Chen En used his power when he arrested people; those who don't might think they used a powerful memory restoration technique to torture them!
“…Brother Chen En, next time you should be more lenient.”

Inspector Megure patted Chen En on the shoulder and said,
Upon hearing this, Chen En glanced at it and said,

"This person specifically targets the elderly, the weak, the sick, and the disabled. He just tried to kill a primary school student to silence him."

Mu Mu Police Department:?
He then said,
"Well done! That's how you should play!"

"No, this is the only way to fight!"
