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

Chapter 95 The Bat Suit Nearing Completion

As the sun begins to set, inside the secret base of Phantom Thief Kid.

The famous second-generation Phantom Thief Kid, one of the world's top magicians.

Kaito Kuroba was examining the disguise mask in front of him at that moment.

—Well, Chen En's learning progress is very fast.

It's progressing much faster than he expected.

At this rate, Chen En's disguise masks should be usable in actual combat within two weeks at the latest.

"You really didn't have any prior training in disguise techniques?"

"That's strange. I can see you have a background in magic. Normally, any magician's troupe should have some disguise techniques. How could you really not have any foundation at all?"

Kaito Kuroba stroked his chin, looking somewhat puzzled.

To this, Chen En could only say that it seemed like you were making me laugh.

Can the magic of your worldview be the same as the magic of my hometown?

Which magic school teaches disguise techniques?

"Young Master Kaito, Young Master Chen En, your juice."

Kuroba's butler, Terai Kinosuke, carried a tray into the secret base.

As the 1.5th generation Phantom Thief Kid who temporarily filled in between the first and second generation Phantom Thief Kids, Kaito Kuroba, Terai Kinosuke also has his own insights into disguise techniques.

He saw the disguise mask Chen En had made and praised it.

"Young Master Chen En's abilities are far greater than I imagined."

"If the master had seen a promising newcomer like Young Master Chen En when he was still active as a magician, he probably wouldn't have been able to resist taking him on as a disciple or giving him guidance."

—Chen En is already immune to this.

Terai Kinosuke can be considered a user of the "Bragging Fruit".

I always praise everything I see. As the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face. As long as it's not something like saying the other person's whole family died, it's generally okay to praise whatever you see.

Pick up a glass of juice from the tray on the table.

Chen En sat on the sofa and glanced at the time on his watch.

It was almost 9 p.m.

That's about it for today's study time. After finishing this glass of juice, he can head over to Professor Agasa's lab to check in, give the adorable Noah's Ark a boost, and then go home to sleep.

However, Kaito Kuroba, who also picked up a juice, brought up serious business.

"The day after tomorrow, I will go to the Suzuki Foundation's exhibition hall as Phantom Thief Kid to steal the largest pink sapphire ever made. If nothing unexpected happens, I will make my move at nine o'clock tonight."

Theft warning letter arrived two days later.

Chen En was able to recall it.

This was the headline news he saw while watching the news, following the theft of an explosives depot and the visit of the world's number one illusionist to Japan.

Kaito Kuroba drank the juice in one gulp.

Holding the cup with both hands, he lowered his body and said earnestly.

"—I see it now, the structure of so-called illusion."

"You know that I went to the Tokyo Budokan to see the illusion performance of Günter von Goldberg II, who is known as the world's greatest illusionist, but it wasn't until today that I figured out what was going on."

"Light, sound, and smell combine into one in the enclosed environment of the martial arts hall."

"Only Günter von Goldberg II was able to put everyone at the Tokyo Budokan into a state of collective hallucination, thus completing what he called an illusion performance."

Kaito Kuroba then said...
"If the illusionist you and Koizumi Akako were talking about really exists."

"So, to deal with him, we need to be prepared in these aspects. I had a custom-made anti-illusion mask made in advance, and it also has soundproofing and thermal imaging capabilities. If you're interested..."

Terai Kinosuke, who was standing next to him, coughed twice.

Then, he said in a somewhat embarrassed low voice,
“Young Master Kaito, Young Master Chen En and we are from the same prop importer.” “He happened to be there when I took the mask, so he actually saw it last night. You don’t need to say it to him again.”

Kuroba Kaito:?
Huh? A prop importer?

I still don't know who the prop importer is. I asked you to purchase everything, but Chen En found out who the supplier was before I did.
Kaito Kuroba was rendered speechless by the attack.

After a long silence, he said,

"In short, I will try my best to plan the evacuation route to be outdoors."

"I'll leave the rest to you, Chen En."

Is that all there is to it?
Chen En nodded slightly and said,
"I'll take care of it."

------

Nighttime, Dr. Agasa's research institute.

Just like the nights Chen En visited Mihana Town before.

Chen En also visited today as promised.

However, the Professor Agasa of today is clearly somewhat different from the Professor Agasa of the past.

He sat on the sofa, his face flushed, seemingly lost in thought.

Chen En, unfazed by this, prepared to walk around Professor Agasa and continue to strengthen the Noah's Ark's program. This time, he would try to utilize the programming situation here.

Then, they would infiltrate the database of the Sindora Foundation in the United States, which contained the actual Noah's Ark.

Before that, Chen En needed to review the Tokyo Public Prosecutor's Office's database again to see if the cross-age identification system for Pacific buoys had been officially launched, and to review the overall map of Miyano Akemi's movements during this period, etc.

However, just as Chen En was about to enter the room...

A programmer's alertness instantly brought Professor Agasa to his senses.

He turned around and said to Chen En,

"Wait a minute, don't rush to borrow the computer."

"I have good news and even better news for you. Which do you want to hear first?"

Chen En: ?
Chen En turned around, stared at Professor Agasa for a while, and then asked,
"The good news first."

Upon hearing the good news, Professor Agasa's face lit up with excitement.
"The good news is that Jack has already made arrangements. I'll be able to bump into Fusae tomorrow, catch up on our lives, and try out some completely new experiences that I've never had before!"

Chen En was somewhat surprised.

He hadn't expected Jack to be so efficient; he'd arranged a chance encounter in less than a week, which was quite remarkable. He then asked...

"What's the even better news?"

Hear this.

Dr. Agasa immediately stood up.

He led Chen En to the room where he was doing his research, and then suddenly lifted the black curtain.

Looking at the black Batman suit inside.

Dr. Agasa said excitedly,

"The even better news is that your bat suit is almost finished!"

"It will take at most one more day."

"That means your bat suit will be ready for actual use by the morning of the day after tomorrow at the latest!"

----is that so?
A bat suit that can actually be used in real combat?
