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

Chapter 660 Race against time
"Oh My God."

"Today is a great day to go to the convenience store. I rarely take you shopping at the convenience store with me, because I don't have much free time..."

A middle-aged man in a suit, looking like a corporate slave, walked together with a girl in a high school uniform in the clothing section on the third floor of a convenience store.

He scratched the back of his head and said somewhat apologetically.

In fact, he should feel apologetic.

It's not that he has absolutely no time; the reason he has so little time to take his daughter shopping at the convenience store is entirely because...

He has a very time-consuming hobby.

That is the way of the sword.

This middle-aged man, who works like a corporate slave, often spends his precious rest time going to meet up with friends for kendo exchange meetings or staying at his home kendo dojo to instruct students.

Otherwise, given his free time, how could he only take his daughter out to the convenience store once every few weeks?
"Dad, you..."

The high school girl standing next to the middle-aged man shook her head, already used to it, and simply said...

“Starting from when I was in junior high school.”

“Dad, you’ve always been the same, and nothing has changed.”

She was wearing the Ekoda High School uniform, but she looked petite and not like a high school student.

Walking with the middle-aged man next to him, they were the kind of people a passing police officer would pat on the shoulder, signaling the middle-aged man to come back to the police station with him.

"Everyone, today's convenience store discount event is for purchases over..."

The announcement came over the loudspeaker on the third floor of the convenience store.

But the sound stopped abruptly, causing the girl and her father to look up at the loudspeaker at the same time, staring at it for a while with some confusion.

Is the loudspeaker broken?
This is really strange.

As the largest department store in the Ekoda area, it always uses only the best and most expensive equipment, and has never had any problems.

This time, problems arose as soon as they arrived.

Is it just bad luck?

"Hmm, never mind, let's ignore it."

"Anyway, whatever discounts are available, the cashier will tell us when we get to the checkout counter, right? Dad got a bonus today."

"Buy whatever you want, no need to look at discounts!"

The middle-aged man waved his hand with high spirits and said.

The girl was speechless at her father's pretense of being superior, but she did not refute him.

The main reason is that I don't want my father to lose his precious little bit of face, since he already holds the position of the youngest son in the family.

If he loses face in public, then Dad might become so withdrawn that he'll practice kendo every day.

------

Did you make it?

The Batmobile stopped at the main entrance of the Eguta Department Store on the first floor. Chen En pushed open the car door and got out, calculating in his mind.

Time remaining until the bomb detonates.

Three minutes to go.

It would be absolutely impossible for an ordinary person to find the bomb buried inside the seven-story Ekoda Department Store in three minutes.

But Chen En is no ordinary person.

And the Noah's Ark that was with him was no ordinary AI; it was fully capable of activating all the cameras simultaneously to watch.

Therefore, his top priority right now is to...

The goal is to locate the control room of Ekoda Department Store, use Noah's Ark to investigate the internal surveillance footage, and simultaneously use the broadcast system to notify other customers to leave Ekoda Department Store.

"Hey, you, you're Batman!"

"Standing at the entrance of Ekoda Department Store, ordinary citizens passing by exclaimed in surprise."

"So you're not an urban legend after all."

"So you really exist! Um, may I ask you something?"

"Are you really an orphan?" Chen En: ?
What the hell is this question?

Are you crazy? Just because you see someone wearing a Batman costume, does that mean that Batman is an orphan?

That's too arbitrary!
Chen Enli ignored him completely.

He simply gestured for Ai Haibara to drive the Batmobile further away to ensure that if he failed to defuse the bomb and it exploded, Ai Haibara would not perish in the flames.

Ai Haibara hesitated.

However, she still followed Chen En's idea and activated the Batmobile's child driving mode, driving it a little further away.

Bombs kill humans.

But bombs can't kill Batman.

Chen En has countless amazing gadgets on him. If you think you can kill him with just an explosion, you should go back and prepare dozens of times more explosives first.

In fact it does.

He possesses a system item obtained after completing a system task.

The prop was attached to the back of the Batsuit, usually hidden by the cape, so you couldn't tell what was there.

But the props do exist.

That's the equipment of Gotham City's supervillain Firefly. Once activated, it can absorb the energy of an explosion, allowing him to fly temporarily.

Previously, during Chen En's fight with Curaçao, at the moment of the sudden explosion in the warehouse.

He used the wings of a firefly to successfully escape the warehouse's blast radius, leaving Ireland, who was watching him, dumbfounded.

—The wings of fireflies are not very noticeable, therefore, from the Irish perspective.

Batman was launched into the air in the face of the explosion, and then landed slowly, defying the laws of physics, as if he had the ability to fly.

That's why Ireland exclaimed that Batman isn't human at all, because humans can't fly.

Therefore, the explosion couldn't kill Batman.

With the props, there was no way Chen En could have died from the bomb explosion inside the Ekoda Department Store.

He quickly ascended the steps.

Noah's Ark retrieved the interior design drawings of the Eguta Department Store.

Then, He quickly planned the route to the control room of Ekoda Department Store and guided Chen En along the way.

Along the way, there were many Ekoda department stores, and ordinary citizens noticed Chen En's appearance.

As for him wearing the Batsuit.

Some citizens simply thought it was ordinary cosplay, while others believed it was the real Batman, leading them to suspect that some huge problem might be brewing.

Although it is very impolite to say that.

However, from an aesthetic perspective, that is indeed the case.

Wherever Batman appears, there's trouble. Now that Batman is here, it definitely means there's a big problem.

Some ordinary citizens in Ekoda began to evacuate from inside the Ekoda Department Store.

But Chen En was only focused on getting on his way, and casually reminded the people he encountered along the way about the dangers inside the shopping mall.

Finally, he arrived at the control room.

The security guards immediately noticed the strangely dressed man and tried to stop him.

However, Chen En simply pushed them to the ground without causing any hindrance.

He entered the central control room.

Then, with practiced ease, he inserted the USB drive, connected the network to the internet, and immediately mapped the data from Noah's Ark inside the Bat Cave.

The review of surveillance footage has begun.

He has less than three minutes left, including the time needed to defuse the bomb.

Time is really running out.
