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

Chapter 372 Turning the Wheel of Fate
"Huh, really? No way? You're kidding, right?"

At the Suzuki Manor, Sonoko Suzuki looked at the message on her phone with some surprise.

She could hardly believe that the superhero whose emotional intelligence was clearly lower than his IQ would send her a message at this time, inviting her to visit Chiyoda Ward. It seemed a bit unbelievable.
Sonoko Suzuki held her phone high and glanced at it.
She then rummaged through her bag, stared at herself in the mirror for a while, and wondered if she should dress up a little. But after thinking about it carefully, she figured that with her makeup skills, she probably wouldn't look as good as without makeup, so she gave up.

Then, she happily went out with her bag, only to be arrested by Tomoko Suzuki in the hallway.

Tomoko Suzuki looked at Sonoko Suzuki suspiciously and asked,
"Sonoko, didn't you say you were going to Nagano Prefecture with Ran tonight to observe celestial bodies? Why are you carrying your bag this morning... And you look really strange, what happened?"

She recalled the rumors she had overheard from the driver—

The main reason was that when the driver was chatting, he mentioned that he had met Sonoko's boyfriend, saying that the boyfriend was very handsome but not quite as good-looking as her, which made her start to doubt whether Sonoko really had a boyfriend, so she asked the question.

Normally, Tomoko Suzuki would not interfere with Sonoko Suzuki's whereabouts at all.
Such a big person, with bodyguards following behind, there shouldn't be any problems.

"Ah, I, this..."

Sonoko Suzuki was a little nervous, and subconsciously twirled the hair on her forehead with her fingers.

This scene made Tomoko Suzuki even more suspicious.

—In her memory, Sonoko had always been a carefree and easygoing person.
She hadn't noticed before because they were so familiar with each other, but now she realized that Sonoko had changed her hairstyle and even taken off her headband. She was practically a different person from the Sonoko she remembered.

This is too strange.

"Tomoko."

Suzuki Jirokichi's voice rang out.

The advisor to the Suzuki Group glanced at Sonoko Suzuki, who had been blocked by Tomoko Suzuki earlier. Seeing Sonoko's expression, he understood what was going on, and immediately coughed and said...

"There's something I want to tell you."

Tomoko Suzuki: ?
Huh? Didn't you stop managing the Suzuki Group's affairs?
What else could they possibly want to talk to me about? Although I have indeed recently taken on the responsibility of an advisor again, it hasn't involved much of the Suzuki Group's business scope at all. So there's nothing to say, right?

Jirokichi Suzuki patted Tomoko Suzuki on the shoulder and said earnestly,

"Considering that the pasta should be mixed with No. 42 concrete, the length of this screw will directly affect the excavator's torque. When it's driven in, it will instantly generate a large amount of high-energy protein, which will seriously affect economic development..."

As he spoke, he gestured to Sonoko Suzuki, who immediately understood and gave him an OK sign.
When Tomoko Suzuki finished listening to Jirokichi Suzuki's nonsense and turned to look in Sonoko Suzuki's direction, Sonoko had already vanished without a trace. Tomoko sighed and said...

"Seriously, cousin, does Sonoko actually have a boyfriend?"

"Why won't you tell me? I'm not going to eat her boyfriend. Besides, I'm just worried that Sonoko might meet the wrong person. You don't know how many times Sonoko has been cheated out of the world. She's Tokyo's biggest fat sheep."

Jirokichi Suzuki: ? Is that even possible? But Batman wouldn't lie about something like this, would he?

------

Conan was used as a costume doll by Yukiko Kudo, who played with his outfits.
As for the fact that he was dressed in a little Batman costume, making Chen En suspect that a cape-stealing battle was about to begin, we'll leave that aside for now. After receiving Sonoko Suzuki's reply, Chen En walked away with Conan's expression of "Where are my teammates? Where are my teammates? Help me, teammates!"
Before he left, he gave me a look that seemed to say, "Why should I save you? You might as well just die there."

When Chen En arrived at the agreed-upon location with Suzuki Sonoko,
Akihabara is already packed with all sorts of cosplay characters. In this era when anime and manga culture is not yet popular enough, the behavior of cosplayers does not seem to have developed to the point where they are boycotted by citizens, reported, or arrested by the police.

At least Chen En noticed a patrol car parked on the side of the street in Akihabara, enjoying the company of the people.

"Hey, Yumi, do you think that ex-boyfriend you keep mentioning will come over?"

"I remember he was some kind of Go master, right? Maybe he cosplayed as Fujiwara Sai or something?"

"Huh? A celebrity? I don't know. Where did you hear that from? If anyone's a celebrity, it's probably just an amateur rakugo performer, right?"

The sound of conversation could be heard from inside the police car.

Chen En glanced at it, a look of understanding appearing in his eyes.
It seems this isn't the first time he's encountered the Ministry of Transport police patrol car belonging to Yumi Miyamoto and Naeko Miike? I didn't recall seeing this before, but I checked the files yesterday and found that these two were the ones who spotted his Batmobile.

"Arn, shall we go check out the show over there?"

Suzuki Sonoko, who was holding Chen En's arm, said with a grin,
She was perfectly at home in such a lively environment. She quite liked the lively atmosphere. If there were no people around and she had to go out alone, wouldn't that be too boring?
"Okay."

Chen En withdrew his gaze and nodded slightly.

He knew nothing about these entertainment news stories, including those about the shogi prodigy, Hideyoshi Haneda. He didn't even check his own brother, Shuichi Akai, so why should he? He didn't understand shogi at all; was he supposed to play matchmaker?
The two followed the crowd, slowly approaching the performance venue, and the singing gradually reached their ears.

The wheel of fate keeps turning, but I will always wait for you.

Why am I so fortunate that every time I see the horizon, I feel a strange sadness?

Chen En: ?
I predict that the wheel of fate will turn!
Isn't this the ending theme of Detective Conan? Hmm, thinking about it, it seems that the band playing the Conan ending theme was indeed famous in the 90s. I never thought I'd have the chance to meet them in person!
A fan wearing a headscarf next to her was waving her fan enthusiastically. If you ignored the words "Yoko Okino love" written on the fan, you would probably think that this fan was a loyal ZARD fan.

As the atmosphere gradually harmonized, Chen En's lips curled into a slight smile.

— It wouldn't hurt to stay here a little longer; consider it a long-awaited time to relax.

His security and special missions have now been cleared. If he encounters any special circumstances, he will naturally receive a new mission, and it won't be too late to set off then.
