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

Chapter 802 Fire Prevention, Theft Prevention, and Batman Prevention

Generally speaking, Calvados considers himself to be a person of good manners.

Even the most well-mannered person will eventually lose their temper and curse when a task is repeatedly delayed.

This isn't a game on the Steam platform. Why are you delaying it so many times? What are you trying to do?
Are you going to kill this person or not? Give me a straight answer!

Calvados's gaze fell on the phone.

I didn't know what to say for a moment.

The information on the phone is very clear.

[Plans have changed, but I'll definitely do it next time.]

His hands were trembling as he held the keypad phone.

Finally, I let go helplessly and put it in my pocket.

Calvados looked up at the sky and sighed.

There's nothing we can do, he's just unlucky.

Fortunately, the organization didn't assign him any new tasks.

Otherwise, if he had stayed in Tokyo for that long, he would have been in big trouble.

However, just as Calvados looked up at the sky and sighed.

His nostrils twitched slightly, as if he had smelled some fragrance.

Then his gaze fell on the people setting up stalls nearby.

...Never mind, making rice is the priority.

Let's grab a late-night snack first, and we can talk about anything else after we've eaten.

------

The shadow cabinet's top brass at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department sighed.

His name is Takahashi Takeya.

The fact that the mission has been repeatedly delayed is certainly not due to his own will.

This is actually due to internal affairs of the shadow cabinet.

Otherwise, according to his thinking, regardless of the consequences, his main goal would definitely be to kill the members of the gold watch group.

This guy's existence has too much of an impact on him.

If possible, it's best to kill it.

Unfortunately, the Shadow Cabinet's internal affairs are now mainly conducted covertly.

His gaze fell on the screen in front of him.

Although the internal meetings of the shadow cabinet have not yet begun.

However, it seems that the chairman of the shadow cabinet had already noticed something amiss on his side.

So I deliberately sent him a message telling him to put everything aside and focus on lying low.

Otherwise, Takahashi Tsuyoshi wouldn't have sent a message to Calvados.

Now it is the shadow cabinet's regular internal meetings.

We no longer use the internet to communicate.

Instead, it uses specific local area networks and internal channels.

Its purpose, of course, is to prevent possible eavesdropping or spying.

It's mainly to protect against Batman.

Batman's ability to come and go as he pleases in the classified databases of various intelligence organizations has deeply shocked them. No matter how troublesome it is, they still need to guard against fire, theft, and Batman.

"I believe you are already aware of what has happened recently."

"Hamanaka is like a wolf that can never be tamed."

“He attacked us while we weren’t paying attention, blowing up about 10 estates in an instant. Many wealthy people were affected, including one of our Shadow Cabinet members.”

"I think we no longer need to let organized crime act as fronts."

At the formally convened shadow cabinet meeting.

"That's what the masked Shadow Cabinet Speaker said. Even while wearing a mask."

Just from his tone, you could tell that his expression was probably quite unpleasant.

No matter who it is, they won't be happy to be in this situation.

"Now let's get straight to the point."

"Our purpose in supporting organized crime is, of course, to test Batman's true abilities."

“The three criminal organizations represent our three tests.”

"Now, among the three criminal organizations, the people we supported are either dead or their entire criminal organizations have been wiped out by Batman. I believe everyone has seen Batman's power."

"This strangely dressed freak is not as easy to deal with as we thought."

"Moreover, he actually concealed his strength when he first made his move."

"Unfortunately, after our series of probing attacks, he finally revealed his true colors. Now that we have figured out Batman's weaknesses, the next attack will be a full-scale assault, sending him to hell with us."

The Shadow Cabinet Speaker said this.

Many masked shadow cabinet members nodded in agreement with the speaker's words.

This Batman is far too cunning.

At first, he was just a street hero who seemed to be good at disguise.

However, as he encountered more and more challenges, his abilities also grew exponentially.

Now they are facing continuous probing from three underworld organizations.

It has already demonstrated an unbelievably powerful strength.

You have to make them believe that Batman grows stronger through repeated heinous murders. They absolutely refuse to believe it. If solving cases could make you stronger, Shinichi Kudo wouldn't have been ambushed.

That's a genius who solved over a thousand heinous murder cases in just two years.

If solving cases could make you stronger, then this novel should be called "~The Legendary Journey of a High School Detective~ Solving Cases Makes You the Strongest in the World~ The Case Files of Detective Shinichi Kudo~".

"That damned Batman, he actually hid his strength to deceive us."

"Judging from this guy's hidden strength, if we had thought he was only that strong from the beginning and then sent people to beat him up, he might have been able to find us by following the clues."

"It all comes down to the Speaker's foresight."

"A member of the Shadow Cabinet exclaimed."

As he spoke, the Shadow Cabinet's conference room was filled with various sounds of praise.

Only Takahashi felt that something was amiss.

He felt that the situation was not as simple as the speaker had described.

Was Batman really this strong from the beginning, and has he been hiding his true power all along?
Why does it seem like Batman gets stronger with each vicious murder?
Could it be that their three waves of probing were just feeding Batman experience, turning him into a tyrant bit by bit?
Takahashi Tsuyoshi felt somewhat uneasy.

But he didn't dare to say it.

And saying it out loud won't do any good.

Everyone thought Batman was always this strong, and was just hiding his true power.

Going against the grain of others will not bring him any benefit; it will only make everyone think he is a fool.

In that case, it's better to keep your thoughts hidden.

Perhaps it's time to think about when to run away.

No, no matter how you look at it, the Shadow Cabinet has treated him well; he shouldn't think like that...

While Takahashi Tsuyoshi was still hesitating.

The Shadow Cabinet Speaker spoke without hesitation.

"Now we should start planning our all-out attack on Batman."

"Let this oddly dressed freak see who the true masters of this city are!"

Takahashi Tsuyoshi: ?
I've made up my mind; I'll find a chance to run away.

Before I run away, I'll do one last job: get Calvados to kill that gold watch gang member, then I'll pack up and retire to my hometown, as long as I don't get caught red-handed...

Could the Japanese Public Security Bureau really kill him?
