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

Chapter 312 The Enraged Black Mask

"Here he comes, here he comes, Batman is here!"

Seeing Batman arrive at the designated area on a motorcycle, Black Mask couldn't help but smirk. He jumped out of the helicopter, grabbing the rope dangling from the broadcast helicopter with one hand, and quickly slid down.
The rope was released just before landing, allowing her to land steadily and look at Chen En in front of her.

The man in the black mask said with a cold laugh,

"Batman, I've been waiting for you, and you've finally arrived!"

Chen En stared at the black mask before him, remaining silent.
Seeing this, the man in black mask's eyes turned cold, and he spoke with even more malice.
"Hmph, you want to be the guardian of this city, don't you? Don't you think that's ridiculous?"

"Before you, this clown in outlandish clothes, even appeared in Tokyo, the people of this city were already used to this kind of life. What they need is not stability, but a chaotic whale fall where everyone has a chance!"

The man in the black mask spoke recklessly.

"Batman, your existence is superfluous. I'm going to show you my power..."

He suddenly opened his arms wide and shouted,
"Witness the fury of the Steel Society!"

The man in black suddenly pressed the button on his other hand.
Upon seeing this, the numerous filming crew members who were live-streaming the match couldn't help but feel a sense of shock.
Even many citizens watching the program felt a sense of fear.
—Black Mask never intended to let the Suzuki Group headquarters building go.

He simply wanted to lure Batman to him.
Then, just blow up the Suzuki Group headquarters in front of Batman to see his anger and fear. Namo san, what a sin this is! Even Buddha would close his eyes if he saw it.

Kogoro Mouri, still at the Mouri Detective Agency, stared wide-eyed.
Unable to believe what was happening, he quickly switched channels to watch the live broadcast on TV Tokyo. However, the Suzuki Foundation headquarters building in the live broadcast on TV Tokyo remained completely unchanged.

Maori Kogoro:?

Huh? Where's the bomb? Weren't we supposed to bomb the headquarters building?
It's not that he wanted to see the Suzuki Group headquarters building blown up, but rather that Black Mask talked nonsense for a long time, then solemnly pressed the detonator, but nothing happened, which is too absurd!

Not only were the many ordinary citizens in front of the TV station and a few bloodthirsty viewers stunned,
Even the masked man at the scene was stunned.

He glanced down at the detonator button in his hand, then looked up at Batman across from him, who was staring at him like he was an idiot. Then he pressed it again, and pressed it several times in a row.

However, no sound came out, and the night sky remained unchanged.

—This, this isn't right, is it?
This shouldn't be happening! Logically, if it had exploded, we should be able to hear the collapse and explosion from this location, and there should be flashes of light on the opposite horizon! Where's my bomb? Where's my bomb?!

"Damn it, what kind of detonator is this?!"

Enraged, the man in black mask threw the detonator on the ground.
He stomped hard, but it didn't shatter. The detonator even bounced on the ground, making his leg ache and causing the face hidden under the black mask to change color.

He raised his head and stared intently at Chen En.

------

Prior to this, Conan and Ai Haibara had already taken action.

Using the thermal imaging capabilities of their glasses and their limited knowledge, they quickly located the sniper in disguise nearby and eliminated him swiftly using the tools in their belts.

Ultimately, while other television stations were filming the confrontation between Black Mask and Batman,
They quickly took out the two snipers camouflaged on the rooftop of a nearby building, and then they all breathed a sigh of relief.

—They made it. After Conan and Ai Haibara reached an agreement in the room, they went over the accounts.

He learned that there was actually another sniper targeting Chen En last night, but the sniper was arrested by the police and the news was not released to the TV station, so no one knew about it.

Conan immediately began to suspect that Black Mask might use the same trick again.

Given this superhuman's style of doing things by assuming that if he can't do something, it's because he didn't have enough snipers, Black Mask probably thinks that the reason he couldn't kill Chen En is because he didn't hire enough snipers. So there should have been quite a few snipers lying in ambush nearby.

Therefore, Conan and Ai Haibara split up to first check if there were any snipers nearby.

Further consideration should be given to how to assist Chen En in eliminating the Black Mask.

However, there really was a sniper nearby, so they chose to take care of the sniper first to ensure Chen En's safety. Otherwise, if Batman were killed by the Black Mask sniper, there would probably be a huge explosion next.

Just as Conan and Ai Haibara were staring at each other across the building, hidden in a blind spot in the shadows,
They witnessed firsthand Black Mask's seemingly sophisticated but actually clown-like rhetoric, though they had actually anticipated this.

Since Chen En had already eliminated the danger to the Suzuki Group headquarters building before arriving at the confrontation area,

So it's perfectly normal that the black-masked bomb remote control would be useless.

All that's left is to wait for Chen En to deal with Black Mask—

Conan suddenly looked up.
He thought he had just seen a reflection, a reflection from a mirror.

Could it be that there's a sniper involved?!

Without saying a word, he pressed the switch on the football belt, and a rapidly inflated football immediately popped out. However, before he could kick the football, a gunshot rang out!
The bullet whizzed through the air and hurtled towards Chen En's location.

However, Chen En didn't even bother to glance at it. He simply tilted his head slightly to avoid the bullet that could have turned him into President Kennedy, and walked step by step toward the black mask.

The sniper on the other side was stunned when he saw this.

—Dude, you actually managed to dodge a sniper rifle bullet?

Also, why was I the only one firing? Where were the other snipers?

He was still in a daze when, in the next moment, a soccer ball shot into the sky and exploded violently in mid-air.

That was a firework ball.

The surrounding area was instantly illuminated by the fireworks.

The sniper, whose location had been exposed, had no time to retreat. A spinning soccer ball struck him in the head, instantly sending him flying!

This scene left the numerous television reporters in the vicinity speechless.
They didn't capture how the football arrived, or what happened with the fireworks. By the time they moved the camera over, there was nothing left.

At the same time, Toshiro Odagiri also gave the order, saying,
"start to act!"
