Refuse to allow Conan to join the main storyline

The last night before leaving the police academy, the last social gathering.

The five-member group walked back to the police academy in silence.

Hagiwara Kenji suddenly said, "Hey, no roll call tonight, right?"

He turned around and looked at the four people around him: "I remember it's okay not to return to school at night, right?"

All four of them understood what he said immediately.

Yi Dahang looked at his watch and said with a smile, "It's only ten o'clock, it's not too late. Shall we continue the party?"

Matsuda Jinpei yawned and said, "Well, you can't just change your biological clock."

Hagiwara Kenji sneered: "Who are you kidding, you night owl? You stay up all night and hide in your dorm room to tinker with something."

"I studied the tutorial and made a semi-finished product. After I tried it myself, I realized that the person who wrote this thing is really a genius. Damn it. This thing greatly lowers the threshold for learning explosives, and it may have a more far-reaching impact than I imagined."

Morobushi Kagemitsu didn't know the whole story. After hearing what Matsuda said, he asked, "Are you still researching that? Haven't the serial bomber and his remnants been arrested?"

"Oh, it's just a soothing statement."

Fūya Ling nodded: "Yes, those who were caught were just imitators. The real tutorial maker has not appeared yet."

For a moment, the five people fell silent again. Finally, Hagiwara Kenji stepped out to liven up the atmosphere: "Xiao Zhenping, are you so worried about her?"

He smiled and said, "Even if no one asked you to do anything, you still continued to do research. It's really touching."

Matsuda Jinpei glared at him and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just interested in this thing."

"Hey, I think you could be more frank. Research is research, but you better hide this thing so it won't be discovered."

"Tsk, you don't have to tell me."

Hagiwara Kenji winked at the four people and said, "Besides, don't you think today's party is missing something?"

Zhu Fujingguang nodded: "Well, she didn't show up."

Fūya Ling nodded: "Yes. I paid special attention to observe her, but it seems that she really was not there today."

Yi Dahang nodded: "That's right, she was always here before. Suddenly she didn't come this time, and it felt like something was missing."

After the four people expressed their opinions, they all turned their attention to Jinpei Matsuda.

Matsuda Jinpei frowned: "Why does our social gathering have to have this person? It's normal that she didn't show up!"

Hagiwara Kenji smiled and said, "So, should we give her another chance?"

Ida Hang: "Let's go, let's continue the party!"

Zhu Fu Jingguang: "I agree! After leaving school tomorrow, everyone will go to their respective posts. I don't know when we will have the chance to get together again."

Furiya Rei: "Well, let's continue the party!"

The four of them once again turned their gazes to Matsuda Jinpei.

Matsuda Jinpei: "…Why are you all looking at me? I didn't say I won't continue."

Kenji Hagiwara: "Haha, let's go, I know a really good store nearby!"

"Heh, it's rare that you would arrange a party for us without female classmates."

"Who said there isn't one? Maybe there really will be one later."

"Tsk, why on earth should we expect that guy?"

"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot." Hagiwara patted his backpack, "The photos from the past two days have been developed. I'll send them to you later."

"Wow, that's great. I thought I was going to be late."

At the recommendation of Kenji Hagiwara, five people crowded into a roadside ramen restaurant.

As soon as he entered the door, Hagiwara called out loudly to the back of the operating table: "Boss Ueda, I'm here to bring you a guest!"

The sturdy man in an apron laughed and greeted, "It's Brother Hagiwara. Why are you here so late today?"

"Ahahaha, no name-calling tonight, we'll come over to your place for a few drinks. Anyway, five draft beers first!"

"Welcome, welcome. Come find a place to sit. Mei-chan, bring the beer over first."

"Okay! Please take a seat, sir. I'll bring the beer right away."

Because it was a bit late, there were not many customers in the restaurant. In addition to the five people, there were three other tables of guests sitting here and there.

The five of them directly occupied the largest table in the ramen shop.

Idahang also turned around and said politely to the person sitting alone next to them: "Sorry, we might be a little noisy, sorry to bother you."

The young man sitting at the next table had messy hair and a pair of high-end headphones hanging around his neck. Maybe because he felt cold, he was also wearing a large scarf, and when he raised his head, the lower half of his face was completely covered.

After hearing what Yi Dahang said, he looked up and glanced at them casually without giving any response. He just reached out and put on the headphones, then continued to fiddle with his mobile phone and buried his head in writing and drawing in a notebook, looking like he was too lazy to pay attention.

Meijiang, the waitress in the store, brought the beer over and said to the young man apologetically, "Sir, I'm sorry, this is the largest seat in our store and we can only seat you here. If you find it noisy, I can change your seat. Sir?"

The young man seemed to have just noticed that someone was talking next to him. He turned around to look at the waiter, still without saying anything, and then lowered his head to continue doing his own thing.

The waiter smiled awkwardly at the five people and said, "If that's the case, then it should be fine. What else do you want to eat?"

While Hagiwara Kenji was ordering food, Fūya Rei looked at the young man carefully but didn't see anything wrong with him.

Then he discovered that not only himself, but the other four people were actually observing him quietly.

After several rounds of training, the five of them were completely synchronized.

The inspection is over.

Hagiwara sighed with some regret: "Ah, so it turns out not to be the case? What a pity."

Matsuda Jinpei: "So why do you feel that way? You don't know her well."

Hagiwara Kenji sighed, "Don't say that. After all, we've been through the same thing together. I actually feel that I'm more familiar with her than with other classmates. Don't you feel the same way, Jinpei?"

Matsuda Jinpei:......

"Oh my, I didn't expect that these words would come out of your mouth, Hagiwara."

"Eh? Why do you say that?"

"Looking at your daily social circle, it seems like you're familiar with everyone."

"Hmm, a life-and-death friendship is here, who else but her?"

Zhu Fu Jingguang agreed seriously: "I agree with what Hagiwara said. Even if no one admits it, she is still our important classmate. In fact, I was very happy when I saw her coming to the graduation ceremony, but I didn't expect it to turn out like that in the end. Alas..."

"Come on, let's have a toast to this classmate who is not here!"

"cheers."

"cheers!"

"Humph……"

"In fact, I more or less agree with what she said at the ceremony."

"Eh? Class monitor, you actually said that? This is a bit surprising to me."

Ida Hang took a big sip of beer and said, "Haha, that's how the system works. It's not wrong to say that most people belong to the masses. After all, there are only a few students who give the instructors a headache every year."

"Hahaha!"

Everyone was amused by his statement.

"Hey, we should get the instructor over for a drink."

"He won't come." Hagiwara Kenji spread his hands, "Do you think I didn't invite him? Guess what the instructor said."

Hagiwara Kenji imitated Onizuka's tone and said, "Humph, forget it, you little brats! In previous years, there were only one or two troublemakers, but this year, there are five of you! If you are not enough, then I am!"

"Hey, why are there five? The bear guy is obviously only Matsuda, right?"

"How dare you say such a thing? Weren't you the one who started a fight with me right after school started?"

"Oh yeah, and my teeth were knocked out."

"Oh, I don't know who it is, his face is so swollen that I can't even eat."

"Hey, is it possible that the instructor has classified me as a troublesome student? I haven't done anything wrong."

"Jingguang, do you think your actions in investigating the case are very secretive? You don't think the instructor didn't notice it at all?"

"That's none of my business. I'm so honest and I'm still the class monitor."

"Oh, how good can a person who hangs out with four troublemakers be?"

"Actually, you should say that people who can hang out with a troublemaker like you are not good at all."

"That's right, Xiaosongtian, where is your self-awareness? Didn't you point at your own nose and say that you were a troublemaker before?"

"Hagi, forget about others, but how dare you say such things? You have always been involved in all the trouble!"

"Eh~ Really? Why don't I remember that?"

The rule that she must be present at the five-member police academy get-together was in effect again.

Although he was wearing headphones, the voices from next door could still be clearly heard by Koizumi.

She lowered her head and gazed downward, but her attention was no longer on the news on the dark web, and even the movements of her hands stopped involuntarily.

Listening to the noise next door, Koizumi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, an imperceptible arc.

She reached out and picked up the draft beer that had been sitting untouched on the table and took a small sip.

...Well, cheers.
