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

Chapter 345 Simps Get No House, Regardless of Gender

That's strange. It was the same two people just now, so why didn't they trigger the security mission?

Chen En arrived at the new fighting game machine.

He stroked his chin, walked around to behind Kengo Obō, stared at Kengo Obō's battle screen, and then directly pushed him. The next moment, everyone gasped in surprise.

Because, in the game screen, the character that moves to at this moment is not [Caesar], which Kengo Oto usually uses, but [Lucas], who has been beaten down by Caesar from beginning to end!
—They misjudged the game from the very beginning!
Only then did the word "Draw" appear on the game screen.

Shimizu Takayasu stood up nervously, looking up in the direction of Oto Kengo, because he had just noticed something unusual—

Even though Kengo Oto is clearly dead, his character just moved slightly!
If this were a Stand battle, he would probably have to bend down to listen to his heartbeat, then grab the nearby lamppost and try to finish him off with a decapitation strike!
"Alright, you over there, turn yourself in."

Chen En didn't even bother to ask who the person on the other end was.

He raised his head and said calmly,

"You just gave Kengo Oto a needle with pufferfish toxin, right? I can see the needle marks on his hand. So, I advise you not to be too stubborn, because I've already called the police."

"The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's police cars should already be out there at this hour. Do you want to test the police's efficiency?"

"During the current crackdown in Beika Town?"

Upon hearing this, the crowd erupted in an uproar.
Shimizu Takaho's face turned pale, and he quickly said...
"Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're good at games!"

“I’m telling you, I didn’t kill Kengo Oto at all! What reason would I have to kill him? Just because we had a disagreement in a game, do you think I should kill him for that?”

"This makes absolutely no sense, everyone, don't you agree?!"

He turned to look at the other players in the arcade.

Then, the other Beika Town locals looked at each other, exchanged glances, and then answered in unison,
"Wait a minute, isn't this a perfectly normal motive for murder?"

Shimizu Takayasu:?
Is this normal? No, Beika and Beika aren't that far apart, so how come everyone in Beika Town thinks this kind of motive for murder is plausible? Does Beika Town really have people who kill for no reason?
Shizumi Takaho's face turned green.

He never imagined that the people of Beika Town would be so simple and honest, to the point that such a small dispute would be considered a reasonable motive for murder by the citizens of Beika Town. This was too outrageous!

Conan looked at the scene with a knowing look in his eyes.

His gaze fell on Chen En, and he wondered if he should give Chen En a tranquilizer dart and then use Chen En's voice to deduce that he was a sleeping Batman.

However, Chen En clearly did not give Zhishui Gaobao this chance, and simply said,

“From the start of the game until now, you are the only person who has directly touched the spot where the needle pricked Kengo. I only touched Kengo’s shoulder once, in everyone’s sight, so I am not suspected of murder.”

"Therefore, there is only one suspect in this heinous incident, and there is no room for dispute, right?"

Upon hearing this, Shizumi Takaho took a few steps back and leaned against the game console.
His expression kept changing, which was quite moving.

Inspector Megure arrived at the scene at that moment.

He happened to be patrolling nearby and arrived just in time. When he saw the scene, he was immediately stunned. He turned to look at Chen En and asked, "What happened?"

Before Inspector Megure could finish speaking, Shimizu Takayasu, whose face had just turned ashen, suffered a bipolar disorder. He collapsed to his knees, clutching his head, and then said in agony,
"I killed Kengo Obō, he deserved to die!"

Mu Mu Police Department:?
What's going on? How did we get to the bipartisan plea stage so quickly? This is ridiculous!

Before Inspector Megure could even ask him anything, Shimizu Takayasu had already revealed his motive for the murder.

------

Kengo Obō and Takaho Shimizu's younger sister are in a romantic relationship.
However, this relationship between the man and woman was not legitimate. Kengo Oto was like a parasite, constantly sucking the blood of Takaho Shimizu's sister, making her work part-time to support Kengo Oto's gaming and living expenses.

Shimizu Takaho's sister was even hospitalized due to overwork.

Shimizu Takaho was determined to end the relationship. He knew it was impossible to get his sister to initiate the breakup; he had to start with Oto Kengo. So, he approached Oto Kengo, hoping he would break up with his sister.

As a result, Kengo Obō did not agree to the matter, only saying that he would agree to break up if Takaho Shimizu could beat him.

What followed was the showdown between these new fighting game consoles —

Shimizu Takaho originally planned to start with zero frames and focus on getting a kill first.

As it happened, he witnessed Chen En using his super intuition and reflexes to dunk on Kengo Oto. A glimmer of hope for a head-on victory arose in his mind, so he temporarily abandoned his original plan to kill. However, he was then dunked on by Kengo Oto in return.

In a fit of rage, he used a needle laced with pufferfish venom to stab Kengo Oto. After Kengo Oto died, he took the opportunity to go around to Kengo Oto's side, insert coins and select a character for him, and then went back to play the game.

Unexpectedly, they encountered someone as rude as Chen En.

He actually went straight to Kengo Oto's side to look at the screen, and even pushed Kengo Oto while he was playing the game, causing Shimizu Takaho's plan to completely fall apart, leading to his current predicament.

"...Which hospital is your sister in?"

Chen En was rendered silent by this man and asked...
As the saying goes, a simp won't get a house, regardless of gender. But now that Shizumi Takaho has been sent to jail, it seems like the woman is doomed if no one takes care of her. He's a kind-hearted person, so he'll ask the hospital to help him so that the woman can be discharged normally.

"..."

Shimizu Takaho stared at Chen En for a while before giving his answer. He was then taken to the police car by Takagi Wataru. Inspector Megure, seeing such efficient case-solving, patted Chen En on the shoulder and praised him.

"As expected of Brother Chen En, that's fast!"

"You're even faster at solving cases than Brother Mori. If it were Brother Mori, he'd probably be sober for half a day, rambling on and on before finally going to sleep and telling the truth. You're much more efficient than Brother Chen En!"

Conan:?
Conan, standing to the side, stared at Inspector Megure, thinking to himself,

He clearly saw it too, but without Kogoro Mouri as his jinchūriki, he couldn't solve the case immediately.

In response, Chen En simply said,
"Stop them. We haven't found the needles with pufferfish toxin. We don't want them to be taken out and accidentally prick someone."

Mu Mu Police Department:?
