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

Chapter 376 Kongming of Xinye

Time slowly ticked down to 23:30 p.m.

Chen En gently turned Suzuki Sonoko around, facing the night sky. The movement made her slightly more awake, and then they saw the shooting star streak across the night sky. Suzuki Sonoko exclaimed in surprise...

"Is this a shooting star? It looks... a little different from what I imagined, not spectacular enough?"

"Generally speaking, what you're describing is a comet."

Chen En added, and then spoke.
"How about making a wish? They say wishes made under a shooting star come true, right?"

—The shooting star has already passed; isn't it too late to make a wish now?

Despite inwardly complaining, Sonoko Suzuki closed her eyes, clasped her hands together in front of her, and made a sincere wish.

She actually has everything she needs now, whether it's money, a boyfriend, or other opportunities to travel. Her only wish now is that this kind of life can continue forever.

Everyone is safe and sound, living a happy and carefree life, able to go wherever they want and do whatever they want.

Meanwhile, Ran Mouri was also secretly making a wish.
However, her wish was for Shinichi Kudo to return from his trip soon and come back to her side; the last time she saw Shinichi Kudo was a month ago...

At that time, it was with Hattori Heiji that they met Shinichi Kudo again.

Conan, leaning against the side, smirked.

He didn't really believe in these things, because he was a staunch materialist and didn't believe in anything beyond the laws of physics. However, making a wish upon a shooting star is actually one of those things where believing in it won't hurt.

So, he reluctantly believed it and made a wish that he could quickly turn back into Shinichi Kudo.

"Hey, if you're just observing meteors, you don't need to bring a telescope."

Kazuhiko Eda shook his head. As an expert in this field, he was very authoritative.

Then, he glanced at his phone and said with some surprise,
"Senior Akimoto just told me that between 11:30 PM and midnight tonight, artificial satellites can be observed in the southern sky using a telescope. Would you like to try it with me?"

To be honest, he didn't know that was the case.

However, since Akimoto-senpai is a highly accomplished expert who can be ranked alongside Nonaka-senpai as one of the pioneers in astronomy, he must be far more authoritative than Akimoto. Therefore, it's more likely that Akimoto is simply ignorant and unaware of this matter.

How could what my senior said be false?

—Artificial satellite?
The mere mention of this word made Chen En feel a little uneasy, because he subconsciously thought of Makoto Kusakabe, who played the role of Tian Ai Zhen Xing. Fortunately, due to the limitations of the times, Makoto Kusakabe couldn't even get his hands on that mobile app anymore.

Otherwise, he would have to consider a countermeasure plan against Makoto Kusakabe's special attack.

For example, finding Fumio Haba, whom Makoto Kusakabe thought was dead, wouldn't be difficult. Although Rei Furuya is a member of the Public Security Planning Division, his position within the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department isn't actually very high.
He can freely access Rei Furuya's file, not to mention Furuya's mentor, Fumio Haba.

"Artificial satellites? Great, I want one too!"

Upon hearing this, Sonoko Suzuki immediately became interested.

Chen En then helped move the binoculars over. He sat down beside Conan and looked at him, while Conan stroked his chin, seemingly lost in thought. After a while, Conan spoke.

"Chen En, you said Noah's Ark really is a super artificial intelligence."

"Furthermore, the Cocoon Game is truly a holographic immersion game. If a person's consciousness is completely immersed in the virtual environment, does that mean that person is completely unaware of the real world?" "What if Noah's Ark, halfway through the Cocoon Game, suddenly says, 'It's too late, organism,'"

"Then they'll take the fifty players in the Cocoon Game pods hostage. Wouldn't that mean all the high-ranking officials' children in Tokyo would be kidnapped? Wouldn't that throw Tokyo into chaos?"

In response, Chen En glanced at Conan and asked,

"Didn't Professor Agasa tell you that?"

Conan:?
He asked in confusion,
"Professor Agasa went on a date, and he didn't say anything to me?"

Chen En then gave a definite answer.

"Dr. Agasa said he added a hidden door to the Noah's Ark program to prevent the super artificial intelligence from going out of control and causing the situation you described, so your worries are unnecessary."

—Professor Agasa, you're truly awesome!

Conan nodded, a sense of感慨 (gan3 kai3, a feeling of mixed emotions, often including regret or reflection).

As expected of Professor Agasa, he even anticipated this possibility. He only just realized it was possible. It seems that Professor Agasa is indeed a hidden genius and the most suitable person to become the greatest Robin!
Anyway, he won't claim to be Robin; whoever is Robin is the greatest Robin, because there's only one Robin.

Time quickly passed to 23:50 PM, and a figure emerged from the stairwell on the rooftop.
It was Hiroshi Akimoto, who had gone to the radio tower earlier. He greeted him before asking,

Did you manage to get a picture?

Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki replied somewhat dejectedly.

"No, there are no satellites at all."

Hiroshi Akimoto sighed and said,
"This is really..."

Chen En, standing beside him, looked up at Hiroshi Akimoto, then glanced at the direction of the radio tower. He noticed that where the cameras had been, a figure had appeared.
So, he casually grabbed Conan's non-prescription glasses, put them on, and rubbed the frames.
Meanwhile, Akimoto Hiroshi was unaware of what Chen En was looking at, and he said with a smile,

"...The reason I came without a camera is because the camera has a timer function. It's only 11:50 PM now, right? I can go back and check the camera's recording status at midnight."

"As for Nona? That guy is still taking pictures. Look at that figure..."

"Isn't that a mannequin?"

Chen En said,

"The dummy is also wrapped with ropes, one end of which is tied to the guardrail next to it with an electronic lock. Are you planning to have the timer lock unlocked at a specified time to create the illusion that the target has accidentally fallen?"

Hiroshi Akimoto: ?
how do you know?

No, how could you see that? Are you Superman? No, even at the highest magnification, a telescope can only see a figure on the other side of the radio tower. Are your eyes bigger than the magnification of a telescope?

------

At midnight, the dummy and the body fell together.
Meanwhile, police cars from the Shinno City Police Department had arrived at the scene, and one of the officers examining the body was a rather refined-looking officer.
He was tall, fair-skinned, with long hair, wearing a dark blue suit jacket, a light blue shirt, a royal blue tie, and white gloves. His most striking features were his almond-shaped eyes and his small mustache.

Just by looking at the police officer's appearance, Chen En knew who he was.
