Refuse to allow Conan to join the main storyline

Miyano Akemi knocked on the door and walked in, handing over a can of iced cola and a letter: "Izumi, I forgot just now, here is a letter for you."

"Oh, okay, thank you Mingmei."

Koizumi took it with some surprise, and was even more surprised to see the name of the sender on the envelope: Hisao Kamimatsu.

Hey, isn't this the black market information dealer in Osaka? Why would this person write to her?

Koizumi casually put the ice cola on the table. When she was about to open the letter, she found Miyano Akemi still standing next to her.

"Anything else?"

The expression on Miyano Akemi's face was a little strange. She seemed to hesitate for a moment, but still said nothing and left with a smile.

Koizumi was already somewhat used to this woman's expression of wanting to say something but not being able to, so he didn't pay much attention to it. After Miyano Akemi left, he continued to open the letter.

"Ms. Sakurai, I haven't seen you for a long time. Last time, I was lucky to have you mediate and get me a big deal. I have done several more deals with this tyrannical financier, and they all went smoothly because of you. As the end of the year is approaching, I have prepared a small gift for you, which will be delivered soon. Please accept it. I will be away from Neon for a while, so I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year in advance. Kamimatsu Hisao."

...Leave Japan? Uncle, you've taken your troubles abroad?

And, Christmas?

Koizumi looked up at the calendar and realized that today was already December 12th.

Koizumi was in a trance while looking at the calendar. When he came to his senses, he found a note in his hand: [Be careful of Miyano Akemi! ]

Koizumi: ...

Oh, you finally decided to come out?

Koizumi picked up a pen and wrote a reply: [Why haven't I seen you for a while? It's a bit unlike you. ]

Sakurai Izumi responded quickly: [Don't talk nonsense, because I'm scared! You crazy person! ]

Koizumi smiled.

[Did you get scared? Sorry. But it will only get crazier in the future, you have to get used to it quickly.]

Koizumi picked up the ice cola at hand, took out a tissue and wiped the layer of water droplets on the outside of the can, and then wiped off the water stains that flowed onto the table. Then she found that the color of the tissue had changed.

Eh? etc……

Koizumi put the can to his ear and heard a slight leak and the sound of bubbles rolling.

I haven't even opened the pull ring yet, where does the leaking sound come from?

Koizumi took the Coke can and examined it carefully, and finally found a pinhole right next to the top edge of the can.

Koizumi: ...

Miyano Akemi tampered with my drink?!

Who ordered this?

This sneaky poisoning method is not like Gin's style. Could it be rum? What is he trying to do?

Koizumi was thinking about it when he saw Miyano Akemi coming back with a plate of sandwiches in her hand.

"You probably haven't had breakfast yet? Although it's almost noon, you should eat something first."

Koizumi smiled nonchalantly and said, "Okay, thank you, Sister Mingmei."

Miyano Akemi put the plate on Koizumi's desk and glanced at the can of Coke: "Aren't you going to drink it yet? It won't be cold if you leave it for a while longer."

"Oh, right away."

Koizumi slowly folded Kamimatsu Hisao's letter and put it in the drawer, while casually asking, "How is the cat cafe's business during the days I was away?"

"It's OK. It's been fine." Miyano Akemi complained with a bit of resentment, "However, because you went to Mika Elementary School to promote the store last time, more and more children have come to the store recently..."

Koizumi laughed and said, "Children are a bit troublesome, but they are the main consumer, aren't they?"

Miyano Akemi: "That being said, they almost bought out all the cat snacks in the store. Didn't you notice just now that all the cats in the store have gained weight, especially your big orange cat! Every time I see it jumping onto the cat climbing frame, I worry about the frame's load-bearing capacity."

"Oh, is that so? Then we should limit the supply of snacks. This is really not good for the cat's health. Anything else?"

"Yeah. Our two waitresses have complained several times that the male colleague who works as a handyman is a pervert. He is always sneaking around and secretly looking through their personal belongings. Last week, I fired him because he caused a lot of trouble in the kitchen."

Koizumi: ...

The store’s organizers fired the public security personnel?

Want to laugh, hold it back.

This person just resigned without any struggle?

Oh, by the way, she destroyed her phone some time ago, and the undercover police officer couldn't contact her when she was in the hospital. And it was she who had instructed the undercover police officer in the store to make some noise in the cat cafe to help her cover her whereabouts...

It turns out it was my fault.

But still funny...

"Oh, it's okay. Just fire him. It's easy to recruit people for this kind of position. There's no rush."

This position should be kept for the public security undercover. I hope the next person sent here is someone who will not be called a "pervert", otherwise it will be difficult for me to handle it.

"Is there anything else?"

Miyano Akemi thought for a moment and said, "There's nothing else."

Koizumi pulled the tab of the Coke can, and sure enough, the sound of bubbles wasn't as full and loud as usual. "No, you probably have something else to say, right?"

Miyano Akemi swallowed involuntarily: "...No, it's really nothing."

Koizumi pretended to bring the Coke to his mouth.

Miyano Akemi stared at her closely, her breathing became rapid, but she still did not make any expression.

Koizumi put the Coke back on the table with a thump and said to her coldly, "I think you can also resign. My store doesn't need ungrateful people."

Miyano Akemi's face suddenly turned pale. She bit her lip and stammered, "How did you find out?"

Koizumi sneered, "I know you don't like what that organization does, and they took you in out of kindness so that you can stay away from those dirty things. But what about you? What's the difference between you and those people you hate? First you repeatedly informed Gin about it, and now you're tinkering with my diet. Do you really think I'm a soft persimmon?"

Miyano Akemi said loudly with tears in her eyes: "Then what should I do? The end of resisting them is death! What can I do!"

"Resist? Have you ever really tried?"

"me……"

Miyano Akemi gritted her teeth and was speechless.

Xiaoquan was too lazy to talk nonsense with her: "Take the things in your pocket out for me."

Miyano Akemi covered her shirt pocket with her hands and took a step back involuntarily: "I didn't..."

Koizumi interrupted her and shouted angrily: "Don't force me to do it myself, take it out for me!"

Miyano Akemi shuddered violently and gently placed the things in her hand on the table.

A syringe with half of colorless transparent liquid left.

Koizumi knew that she had something else in her pocket, but she pretended not to notice. She reached out and took the syringe, looked at it, and put it in her pocket. She pushed the Coke can in front of Miyano Akemi and said, "Drink it."

The expression on Miyano Akemi's face changed, and after a moment of fear, she resolutely revealed the cards in her hand.

She reached out and grabbed the gun in her pocket, ready to attack Koizumi. But before she raised her wrist to aim, Koizumi had already stepped forward, grabbed her wrist holding the gun with one hand, pulled and twisted it hard, and then punched her inside of the forearm.

Miyano Akemi felt pain and her hand holding the gun involuntarily loosened.

Koizumi snatched the mini Browning from her hand deftly, held it in his hand and tried it out: "Thanks, it's a nice Christmas present."

Then she pointed the gun at Miyano Akemi and pointed at the can of Coke on the table: "Drink it."

Under the threat of a gun, Akemi Miyano could only grit her teeth and pour the can of liquid of unknown effect into her mouth.

Within a minute, she fell to the ground unconscious.
