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

Chapter 443 Lupin III: It wasn't me, my account was hacked... Oh no, it really was hacked?

"Hey, I told you, my account was hacked. It wasn't me, really, really."

"No, don't tell Fujiko that I used her photos as bargaining chips. We used to be good friends, right? Stop chasing me! Jigen, Goemon, help me out!"

Lupin III screamed as he was chased by King, who had come from afar.
However, Daisuke Jigen, who loves thick rice like Lupin III, didn't even bother to move and simply shouted...
Why should I save you? You might as well just die there!

"Honestly, you gave away the gems we just got to that woman again. We've worked for nothing again! You don't think I'll believe your lies just because you told me you were a step behind that woman, do you?"

Upon hearing this, Lupin III immediately became furious.
He said a lot of strange things, such as "How can the treasure that was taken by Mine Fujiko first be considered a gift from me?" and "Don't you understand the game rule of 'the latecomer wins first'? Although I arrived before Mine Fujiko, it's normal for Mine Fujiko to be able to take the gem."

However, such a statement wouldn't fool Daisuke Jigen, let alone Goemon lying in bed.

At this very moment, Ishikawa Goemon was meticulously peeling an apple in his hand.
He had overexerted himself in his fight with Hawke, to the point that he needed several days to recuperate. But Lupin III couldn't stay still; on his second day there, he went to steal.
He stole it, but then Fujiko Mine took it and even put a chain on Lupin III.

If Daisuke Jigen hadn't discovered that Lupin was late and shot the chain, Lupin III might have become the first legendary thief to be brought down by a woman.

—Of course, Lupin III belongs to the type who is "willing to be obsessed with women".

One is willing to hit, and the other is willing to be hit; there's nothing more to say.

Ishikawa Goemon's opinion of Mine Fujiko wasn't actually that bad.
He had noticed that Fujiko Mine was observing him from the sidelines while he was training. It wasn't until he defeated Hawk, the undead from Bermuda, that Fujiko Mine greeted them and then quickly slipped away.

What could he do besides listen in on Lupin III's behavior?

Just as Goemon was peeling the apple,
Suddenly, a rubber bullet bounced on the ground and flew directly towards Goemon. Daisuke Jigen glanced at it, about to draw his gun and shoot it away, but noticing that Goemon seemed to have noticed, he didn't move.

The rubber bullet flew toward Goemon, and just as it got very close, the fruit knife slashed out.

The rubber bullet instantly split in two, flying off in different directions without harming Goemon in the slightest. Goemon simply muttered something under his breath.
"Another boring thing has been cut down."

Seeing this, Daisuke Jigen finally couldn't hold back any longer.

He quickly drew his gun and aimed it at King and Lupin III's feet. The revolver spun rapidly, firing six shots in a second, immediately startling King and Lupin III into tap-dancing on the spot until the gunfire stopped.
Noticing where the bullet had landed, Lupin III then shouted.

"Hey, Dimension, that's dangerous! Don't shoot like that!"

King, standing next to him, crossed his arms and nodded.

"Yes, although I disagree with most of Lupin's statements, I do agree with this one. Randomly firing guns is really scary, just like malicious words can hurt people's hearts."

Daisuke Jigen:?
He was speechless, put his revolver back, and then said,
"Hey Lupin, can't you talk to your friend properly?"

"That's enough. A bullet almost hit the teacher's head just now. Do you know how weak the teacher is? Do you really think good doctors are everywhere?"

After being reprimanded, Lupin III and King finally calmed down.

They lay on deck chairs in the courtyard, looking up at the starry sky together. Unlike the bustling Tokyo metropolitan area, the slightly outlying cities still offered a glimpse of the dazzling stars.

Upon seeing this, King clicked his tongue and said,

"Hey, Lupin, the last time we looked at the stars together like this was when we were kids, right?" He and Lupin III had been friends since childhood.

Even though Lupin III had truly tricked him this time, he didn't say much. Instead, he turned his head to look at Lupin III, who had his hands behind his head and a contented expression, and asked,
"Hey, what happened to you this time? Did you mess up?"

"The situation has gotten this bad? You, Jigen, Goemon, and Mine Fujiko, all four of you working together, can't beat that Batman? Really?"

Upon hearing this, Lupin III gasped, his face hardening as he spoke.
"It's not that bad yet..."

"Look, I'm lying here perfectly fine, watching the stars with you. But, Batman is really something else. I've read about his exploits. How should I put it? He's a complete idiot who yearns for heroism."

"That kind of person is too serious. There's no need to get into a conflict with him. If you provoke him, he'll be very difficult to deal with."

As Lupin III spoke, he regained his cheerful demeanor.
It evokes the feeling of the Monkey King in the neighboring Journey to the West, who, when questioned by a Taoist boy about stealing fruit, cheerfully replies, "I, Old Sun, was born with this smile," emphasizing that playing games should be done with a smile.

Hearing this, King clicked his tongue and said,

"That's true, if you provoke them, it will be very difficult to handle."

"Batman's gauntlets have a feature that can automatically raise something. He installed small portable grenades inside, as well as a 9mm gun muzzle. His marksmanship must be quite good, at least as good as mine."

"It's hard to imagine how there could be such a flawless person in this world."

King is a world-class assassin.
He'd seen all sorts of monsters and demons, but Batman was still a top-tier monster among them, to the point that even now, thinking about Batman made his teeth ache.

This guy is really tough to beat; he'd need armor-piercing rounds and all sorts of explosives to take down Batman.

Otherwise, he'd end up like Daisuke Jigen, unable to break through Batman's defenses even with a gun—that Batsuit that looks like it's just for show is actually made of real Kevlar bulletproof fiber.
As an expert in this field, he could tell at a glance.

"By the way, are you still planning to go to Tokyo?"

Upon hearing King's question, Lupin III answered matter-of-factly.

"Of course, I'm going to have a second fight to get my revenge."

King smiled and then said,

"In that case, go and die. I won't spare you."

"But first, you have to leave me the promised Fujiko Mine photobook, otherwise I'll have to go to Tokyo to rescue you and then make you pay me back?"

Lupin III: ?
No, you're only thinking about Fujiko Mine's photobook?

He felt his phone vibrate, then took it out and looked at it, then froze.

Oh no, I tested my account and it really got hacked?
Why did Uncle Zenigata tell me that I sent him a message challenging the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to a duel?

　I'm going to have a meal. I'll post the remaining three chapters after I finish eating; I'm starving...
