Refuse to allow Conan to join the main storyline

After agreeing with Shinji Hagiya on a time to help him eavesdrop, Koizumi took Nekozuka away.

However, just when she left the gun store, she unexpectedly received an email from Rum.

[The blood analysis will be completed within a week. You should have received a key from my substitute, right? Consider it my gift to congratulate you in advance on obtaining the code name. Take it and prepare for the assessment. The address is as follows.]

Koizumi was about to delete the email when he saw that it had self-destructed. He didn't know what kind of self-destruct program Rum had implanted in the email.

This technology is quite advanced, considering that smartphones haven’t even been invented yet.

Come to think of it, if Rum hadn't mentioned it himself, she would have really forgotten about it.

Mao Zuka found two guns, a roll of thin steel wire, a key with a strange shape, and a small medicine bottle containing a bottle of "vitamins" on the man.

I don’t know what that bottle of capsules is. I’ll ask later.

Surprisingly, the address that Rum sent her was the warehouse area where she killed Rum's substitute last time.

------

All the warehouses in Area F are small warehouses. As their capacity is generally only five square meters, most of them are rented by private individuals.

Koizumi brought Nekozuka to the inconspicuous door of Warehouse No. 131. There were the same type of rolling shutter doors on both sides, and they looked no different.

Nekozuka pushed Koizumi aside, took the key and opened the door lock, then went in to check first, and only allowed Koizumi to approach after confirming that there was no problem.

Koizumi was a little amused, but still accepted his kindness.

There were a dozen or so wooden boxes of various sizes neatly stacked in the small warehouse, and a few large black leather bags in the corner.

Before Koizumi could figure out what was going on, Nekozuka said firmly, "These are all guns."

Koizumi: ...

Forgive her for using foul language, but Rum actually gave her an armory? An armory!

Nekozuka methodically opened the wooden boxes one by one, showed Koizumi the things inside, and introduced them to her like a treasure.

“This is the Italian Bereta 92S pistol, this is the Bielsa Thunder 380 self-defense pistol, this is the Taurus PT783 self-defense pocket pistol, and this one here is a Colt revolver.

“This is a Winchester air rifle, a hunting air rifle designed for hunting small animals.

"Although these are antiques, they all look very good. This is an old shotgun made in 1895, and this is an M1 rifle produced during World War II. A Winchester Model 70 shotgun, and this is a Winchester double-barrel shotgun from 1894. This model of gun should be very valuable because of its age and scarcity.

"A Marlin 22 rifle, a US military standard M1A1 carbine, and two sniper rifles with eight-fold scopes. This is a VR80, a 12mm shotgun.

"Another antique, this is the FLA DSA rifle, the last standard 7.62mm rifle in the United States.

"A Czech-made CZ50, two Russian Nagant M1895 revolvers, and an XM15 automatic rifle. This should be the most powerful weapon in this warehouse, as long as there are enough bullets.

"And this is..."

In addition to various guns, the warehouse is filled with various ammunition, magazines, tactical vests, daggers, holsters, noise-canceling earplugs, and even a machine tool and a small industrial heating furnace.

What's the saying? All fear comes from insufficient firepower.

But too much firepower can also make people feel scared!

Since Rum could give the warehouse away without any hesitation, it meant that he definitely didn't care about the things stored here, and he had more and better things. Koizumi even thought that he might not know what was stored in the warehouse at all, and didn't care.

They have stored so many weapons and ammunition, what on earth are they doing?

And what kind of job qualification test is this that requires such heavy firepower? Are they going to send me to Somalia to be a mercenary?

This is just Rum's private warehouse. Koizumi dares to say that Gin, no, it should be said that every code member in the organization may have one or even several such arms warehouses!

The warehouses belonging to the organization can only be more exaggerated.

Koizumi couldn't help but recall the famous scene in the original novel where Gin flew a helicopter and strafed the Tokyo Tower.

Nekozuka concluded, "It looks like these guns are well maintained. Although they are old models, some of them are still usable with good performance. Although the power is not enough, the ammunition is sufficient. But these are consumables and need to be constantly refilled. Boss, if you need anything, I can ask Boss Hagiya, he will definitely be able to get the latest models."

Koizumi: ...

I have little experience, so don't lie to me!

In your eyes, this is not enough firepower?

She reached out and rubbed her throbbing temple: "...You choose it yourself."

"Okay, boss."

While Nekozuka was carefully selecting, Koizumi took out his cell phone and quickly sent an email to Rum.

[Your gift is really unique. ]

Rum's message came back pretty quickly.

【It's nothing compared to your inventory. 】

Koizumi: ...? !

In the eyes of people like Rum and Gin who don't know the existence of the system, doesn't her unlimited ammunition and bombs prove that she has sufficient firepower reserves?

Damn it...

There is no way to explain this wave!

Mao Zuka picked out two pistols, a shotgun, a sniper rifle, and an unlimited number of magazines and boxes of bullets for himself. If Koizumi hadn't tried his best to stop him, he would have even wanted to carry the automatic rifle out!

Then the man handed her the Taurus PT783 self-defense pocket pistol.

Koizumi: "…Put it back, I don't need it."

The usually obedient Nekozuka looked at her stubbornly, refusing to give in at all.

Koizumi had no choice but to reach out and grab his shotgun to show him: "If you really can't use it, I have this."

Nekozuka: ...

Although he didn't understand where Koizumi got the gun from, he still took it and examined it, then said with disdain, "Only two bullets?"

Koizumi: "...I can't explain it to you, anyway, it's enough. Just pick me a dagger, some noise-canceling earplugs, and a box of M60 bullets."

So Maozuka took two black daggers, two leather holsters, a whole box of noise-canceling earplugs, three boxes of M60 bullets, and more magazines.

After looking at her again, he picked up the Taurus PT783 self-defense pocket pistol and put it away.

Koizumi: ...

Never mind, it's up to you. You're the one carrying it anyway, so if you don't mind the weight, just take it.

After looking at her again, Maozuka took out a tactical vest, two pairs of tactical gloves, and a pure black backpack.

Koizumi: ...

He looked at her again and again, then silently reached for the tactical helmet in the corner.

Koizumi: "That's enough! Don't force me to fight you here!"
