Refuse to allow Conan to join the main storyline

Footsteps approached quickly, and Nekatsuka's voice came from the door of the training room: "Boss!"

Eh?

Koizumi turned his head subconsciously.

At the moment when she was distracted, Matsuda Jinpei punched her hard on the temple.

"cherry……"

"old……"

At the critical moment, Koizumi's mind moved, and the scenery in front of him froze as if time had stopped, and the shouts of the two people at the door became low and weak.

In just a second, Koizumi only had time to slightly adjust his body posture and slightly turn his head in the direction of the fist.

"……well!"

"……plate!"

Koizumi fell heavily to the ground. Although he was still dizzy from the blow, at least he did not faint.

Jinpei Matsuda looked at his fist with some confusion.

He should have hit it perfectly, but the punch felt a bit empty, as if it didn't hit the real point.

Hagiwara Kenji rushed to the side of the boxing ring and found that Koizumi had not fainted and was not seriously injured. He patted his chest with lingering fear and said, "I was scared to death."

Nekozuka also showed a rare guilty expression: "Sorry, I shouldn't have disturbed you by making a sound."

However, he immediately turned around and showed a fierce expression to Matsuda Jinpei: "Boss, change people."

Matsuda Jinpei was speechless for a moment, but soon became excited again: "Great, I couldn't ask for more!"

Koizumi supported his still dizzy head and climbed down from the platform, while admonishing: "Nekozuka, be gentle. We are one family."

Hagiwara Kenji hurried over and asked, "Are you okay?"

Then he turned to the stage and shouted, "Come on, Mr. Nekozuka!"

"Hey! You guy!"

However, Matsuda Jinpei had no time to complain, as Nekozuka had already attacked with great pressure.

For a moment the tide seemed turned.

Looking at the cat in front of him that was more than 20 centimeters taller than him, Matsuda Jinpei suddenly felt like he had become Koizumi from fifteen minutes ago.

"How's it going? Do you need help?"

Koizumi waved his hand and sat down on the chair next to him: "It's okay, I'll just take a break. The punch just now didn't land well, Matsuda stopped at the last minute."

Hagiwara Kenji didn't doubt it, he took an ice pack from the freezer, wrapped it in a towel and handed it to her: "You should apply it a little bit."

"it is good."

Seeing that Koizumi really didn't seem to be in any serious trouble, Hagiwara Kenji returned to the boxing ring and started to cheer: "Come on, Mr. Nekatsuka! Beat him up! That's what a good guy does!"

Suddenly, a cool feeling flowed into her body, and her swollen cheeks felt much more comfortable.

Koizumi knew that it was Sakurai Izumi who called upon the singularity to repair her body.

The feeling just now was probably the effect of fifty singularities.

If the treatment effect was too exaggerated, it might arouse the suspicion of the two people. So Koizumi waved his hand in front of his eyes, suggesting that Sakurai did not need to continue the treatment.

Don’t mention it, it’s all thanks to her skills, otherwise she would have been in great trouble if she had been beaten hard.

Because the physical fitness bonus brought by the skill agility was already strong enough, Koizumi had no intention of upgrading this skill for a long time. It was not until there were enough singularities that this skill, which was at the end of the enhancement sequence, was upgraded.

To her surprise, after this upgrade, Skill: Agility (+3) actually directly became Skill: Agility (MAX). Her agility, speed and reflexes did not increase again, but instead gained a special effect, similar to the bullet time in The Matrix.

Just like the battle just now, it was not actually her who stopped time, but after she herself became faster, the speed of the surrounding environment slowed down relatively.

However, this special effect lasts for a very short time, only two milliseconds in reality and one second in perception, and it cannot be used continuously, so it can only be used in emergencies.

It is basically impossible to dodge bullets like in the movies. You can probably only barely avoid vital points.

Because of Hagiwara Kenji's sarcasm and instigation from the audience, Matsuda Jinpei was already suppressed by Nekatsuka. He gradually became more and more agitated, and finally failed to dodge and was punched in the face by Nekatsuka.

Koizumi hurriedly called for a stop: "That's enough, Nekozuka, stop hitting me."

Nekozuka immediately stopped and stepped down from the stage, walked to Koizumi and looked at her face, and found that there was indeed nothing serious, so he stopped talking.

Kenji Hagiwara threw a can of cold beer to Jinpei Matsuda with a wicked grin.

Matsuda Jinpei: "...Hagi, come up."

Hagiwara Kenji refused with a smile: "No, I'm not stupid."

Koizumi: ...

Ah, these two are about to start again.

You say you envy Ida Kou, but there's no room for a third person between the two of you, and you still have to live together after you've graduated...

Bah, don’t eat dog food!

"Nekozuka, are you coming over to get the car?"

"Yes, Mr. Hagiwara informed me that the modification has been completed."

"Okay, then take your time. I'll be leaving first."

Hagiwara Kenji turned around immediately: "Hey, are you leaving now? Are you no longer dizzy? Your face still looks a little swollen, don't you want to spray some medicine?"

Koizumi stood up and said, "I came here today just to see if you have any new news. I'm going to continue traveling around the world."

What I mean is, I plan to go find Zhu Fu Jingguang.

Of course, Hagiwara Kenji also understood what she meant: "Okay, then I won't keep you here. I'll contact you later."

Koizumi waved his hand and left.

Hagiwara Kenji turned around and kicked Matsuda Jinpei on the butt: "Go and apologize."

Matsuda: "Apologize? Why?"

Hagiwara Kenji reached out from the freezer and took a bottle of mineral water and threw it over: "Then go and see him off. I have some serious business to discuss with Mr. Nekozuka."

"What a waste of time! Isn't this her own territory?"

Jinpei Matsuda grumbled to himself, but followed him out anyway.

Just as Koizumi was about to leave on his scooter, he heard Matsuda Jinpei's voice behind him saying, "Hey."

"Is something wrong?"

"…Nothing. This is for you."

Didn’t she have a fight with Matsuda in the hospital after the Victoria Elementary School bombing?

To be honest, she had let it go long ago, but Jinpei Matsuda was always a little awkward.

After a long time, even Hagiwara couldn't stand it anymore, and talked to her privately once to plead for Matsuda, saying that he didn't have bad intentions, he just had a weird personality, and asked her not to take it to heart.

Having said that, it's not me you should be advising.

Koizumi pretended not to notice the hesitant expression on Matsuda Jinpei's face and she took the mineral water and looked at it.

Matsuda Jinpei: "Alright, stop checking. There are no pinholes, no poison. Forget it!"

"Okay, thank you."

Koizumi casually stuffed the bottle into his backpack and prepared to start his journey.

"Hey!"

Squeeze the brake, stop the car, and turn around.

"…If we find that guy, tell him to report back as soon as possible."

"Oh. Anything else?"

"……Gone."

"Oh, bye-bye."

Watching the small motorcycle disappear from his sight, Jinpei Matsuda scratched his head.

He was about to go back to the training room, but when he turned around, he found that Kenji Hagiwara and Nekatsuka were standing behind the workshop door looking at him.

Hagiwara looked at his silly son with an expression on his face, and sighed helplessly and shook his head: "Let's go, Mr. Nekozuka, and check the car."

Matsuda Jinpei:......
