Refuse to allow Conan to join the main storyline

The New Year Horse Racing Festival in Neon is a grand event. It is the first race of the New Year horse racing season and the most important one of the year. It is a large-scale event that combines horse racing, food and entertainment, and attracts countless tourists and spectators every year.

Like previous years, this year's horse racing opening ceremony will be held at the famous Tokyo Racecourse in neon.

Because he was not sure when the target of the surveillance would appear, Shinji Hagiya sent his people to the competition venue early.

After a long wait, at around 1:00 p.m., the person they were waiting for finally showed up.

After finding the target, the eavesdropper immediately turned on the monitoring device and followed. However, because the target was also cautious as always, he did not dare to get too close, and could only follow him as usual, pretending to be a tourist and not too close.

Koizumi sat in the recording studio, wearing headphones and closing his eyes, carefully distinguishing the sounds amid the radio noise.

The headphones she asked Professor Agasa to make were put aside by her.

In fact, the important thing is not the earphones themselves. As she said, it is just a pair of earphones with good sound insulation, and it has no special function, it is just used to deceive people.

The highlight is a pair of earplugs made of special materials hidden in the headphone bag.

At this time, Koizumi put on this pair of earplugs first, and then put on Shinji Hagiya's monitoring headphones.

With the filtering of this pair of earplugs, although the noise from the radio waves still made her feel very uncomfortable, it no longer caused her adverse physiological reactions.

"…Dorothy No. 7, Jaguar No. 5, Swift Shadow No. 13, Wind No. 10, Apple No. 1."

Without any instructions from Shinji Hagiya, someone immediately went out with the records to place bets.

Shinji Hagiya watched with a smile, this was already the third bet of the day, and there was no doubt that it would be a huge win like the previous two times, making him rich.

He was just about to ask Koizumi if she needed a quiet room to rest, but he saw that not only did she not take off her headphones, but she had a serious expression on her face.

Shinji Hagiya felt panicky for a moment. Could it be that the kid discovered that he had heard the result wrong?

After a while, when Koizumi took off his headphones, he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? Did you hear it wrong?"

Koizumi shook his head slightly: "It has nothing to do with the game."

"Oh?"

"There was an explosion at the racetrack just now."

Shinji Hagiya was shocked: "What?!"

“It was a bit far from the eavesdropper’s location, and the scale of the incident was small, so it only caused a small commotion.”

Shinji Hagiya hurriedly ordered: "Turn on the TV!"

Sure enough, there was a commotion during the live broadcast at the racecourse, which was quickly suppressed so as not to cause chaos on the scene.

However, from the occasional switching shots, you can indeed vaguely see the rising black smoke.

After a while, the eavesdropper at the scene also called and reported the explosion.

"…A gas tank used by a food stall exploded. Five or six people were injured, including the stall owner. They have been taken away by emergency personnel."

"…The racecourse didn't want to make a big deal out of this, so they drove the police away."

Soon, the TV broadcast returned to normal and the episode ended.

Shinji Hagiya groaned and said, "It's not a big problem, but it's a bad omen. Let's end it here today."

Koizumi did not comment.

"I'll have someone transfer the share directly to your bank account later."

Koizumi showed some interest: "How much did you earn today?"

Shinji Hagiya smiled and shook his hand without saying anything.

Koizumi: "...Five hundred thousand?"

Shinji Hagiya smiled but said nothing.

Koizumi: "...Five million?"

Shinji Hagiya continued to smile without saying anything.

Koizumi: "...No way? I remember the bets at the racetrack were only a few hundred to tens of thousands of yen, right?"

Shinji Hagiya said leisurely: "The rules you mentioned are for ordinary people and tourists. Big customers have their own rules. And..."

He smiled cunningly: "I have so many people under me, so let's share the benefits equally. Just think of it as someone helping me give them bonuses."

Koizumi: ...

Shinji Hagiya: "Well, this time it's a bit conspicuous. I guess that cautious guy will stay in hiding for a while. I'll let you know next time I find an opportunity."

Koizumi: "Okay, please call me next time you give out bonuses!"

On the way back to the tea room, Koizumi asked tentatively, "So, you have already investigated everything about me?"

Shinji Hagiya thought she was just talking about her current undercover identity: "Hey, your little thing is not that secretive. Not to mention that you didn't leave any files, we all know exactly why you didn't leave any files."

Koizumi: ...

Ha, is this the absolute confidentiality that the police have emphasized to her countless times? I really want those bastards to hear these words.

However, it seems that the power of this black market intelligence network is much greater than the current organization. The solution she has been looking for may depend on these people.

Seeing that Koizumi didn't respond, Hagiya Shinji glanced at her and said with a smile, "It's not bad for us to know. It's not a problem that they can't help you solve, but we can, right?"

Koizumi smiled and said, "No, you're overthinking it. That's not what I'm thinking about."

"Oh?" Shinji Hagiya showed a curious expression, waiting for her next words.

"I am interested in your method of collecting intelligence. This is exactly what I lack right now, and I was originally thinking about how to make up for this shortcoming."

Koizumi turned to him and smiled, "I wonder how much this method is worth?"

Shinji Hagiya's eyes revealed an admiring look, and he nodded slightly, "I didn't expect that. Others are interested in my fish, but you are the only one who likes my fishing rod. You have good taste."

Koizumi: "Well, that's why I was a little embarrassed to say it just now. It seems like I'm stealing your job."

"Well……"

Shinji Hagiya pondered for a long time, until the two of them sat down in the tea room again, he slowly said: "Actually, it doesn't matter if I teach you. After all, it's not the method that is valuable, but the channel. You should understand what I mean, right?"

Koizumi nodded slightly as he thought about it.

Shinji Hagiya narrowed his eyes and smiled: "How about this, why don't you just entrust me with your work once? Just consider it as paying tuition."

Koizumi:!!!

Now that she knew that there were problems with Sakurai Izumi's background and initial experiences, she had to investigate.

She was just worrying about how to start, but she didn't expect the old man to come to her door. God really helped me!

However, you must stay calm and not be too anxious! Otherwise, you will be suspected.

Koizumi sneered: "You don't mean to ask me to investigate myself, do you?"

Shinji Hagiya smiled more and more like an old fox: "Wouldn't it be convenient for you to compare it with your own experience? Wouldn't it be easy to see which link has a problem? Then check for deficiencies and fill in the gaps, and quickly fill in the loopholes in you, so as not to be discovered by those with ulterior motives. Right?"

Koizumi: ...

Wow, you even have to use threats to do this.

Although she was not afraid of being discovered by the organization, she still had to pretend to have taken the bait.

Koizumi: "...How much do you plan to sell it for?"

Shinji Hagiya stopped talking and just poured himself a cup of tea leisurely.

Xiaoquan narrowed his eyes and stared at him for a long while, then smiled and said, "You're embarrassed to let me work for nothing today, right?"

Shinji Hagiya smiled and said, "Of course not. It's so nice to talk to smart people."

He picked up the phone and ordered, "Go to the safe and bring me Sakurai Izumi's file. Oh, and pack two red envelopes for the New Year."

Just then, Dr. Gu also came back with Xiao Hongshu.

As soon as he entered the door, Xiao Hongshu ran over and threw himself into Xiaoquan's arms with a depressed expression on his face.

Doctor Gu, on the other hand, laughed cheerfully and said, "You little brat, if you want to fight me, it's too early for you!"

Then he sat down next to Shinji Hagiya, poured himself a cup of tea and asked casually, "How are things going over here?"

The waitress came in quietly, put the things next to Shinji Hagiya, and left quietly.

Without saying anything, Shinji Hagiya pushed the file bag and a red envelope in front of Koizumi, then picked up another red envelope and shook it in front of Hiroki like a lollipop: "Xiaoshu, this is a gift from grandpa."

Doctor Gu immediately put down his teacup and looked over at him warily: "What are you going to do?"

Shinji Hagiya smiled and said, "Who said that Xiaoshu can only have one godfather? You are an old man who doesn't respect others and you only bully children. Come on, come on, Grandpa Hagiya loves you."

Following Koizumi's suggestion, Xiao Hongshu glanced at Dr. Tani, who looked grim, and immediately threw himself on Shinji Hagiya: "Grandpa Hagiya!"

"Ahaha! You're so good. Grandpa will buy you a computer. No, I'll just buy you a computer company to play with!"

"You old fool!"

Koizumi picked up his red envelope and took a look. It contained fifty thousand-yuan bills.

Wow, your family’s New Year’s red envelope is 500,000?

I got the information for nothing and made 500,000 yen, it's worth it!
