Refuse to allow Conan to join the main storyline

Shuichi Akai was thinking about how to go upstairs to eavesdrop without alerting the cats, when he suddenly saw a dark shadow appear out of nowhere, quickly passing in front of him and rushing up the stairs.

Akai Hide subconsciously put his hand on the holster, and then he suddenly realized that the excuse he wanted was here!

So he immediately followed quietly and ran up to the second floor.

However, what puzzled him was that the second floor was pitch black, there were no lights on, and he didn't hear any sound of anyone talking, as if there was no one else here except him.

Where's the Gin Man?

Where is the dark shadow just now?

This situation is a bit weird.

Shuichi Akai reached out and pulled out his service pistol, holding it in his hand. He tried to walk as lightly as possible, listening to the movements around him while slowly moving forward along the wall.

When he reached the open door of the reception room, Shuichi Akai counted to three silently in his mind, then suddenly turned the gun and looked inside the reception room.

But what he saw was the same scene as Gin just now.

Looking around, there were only piles of books. There was no one around, and no sound was heard.

After judging that there was no one there, Shuichi Akai was about to leave and continue searching forward when he suddenly heard a light "click" sound coming from under his feet.

He immediately turned the muzzle of the gun towards the location where the sound had just been made, and then a dark shadow suddenly rushed out from his side, close to the wall, and hit him hard on the wrist.

This thing was very powerful, and Akai Hide's hand shook, causing the muzzle to deflect. But he immediately controlled the strength of his hand and did not accidentally pull the trigger.

Akai Shuichi instantly recalled the texture of the impact just now, it was fluffy.

Is it a cat?

However, before he could take the next step, there was a slight "click" sound behind him, and then something hit his head.

Gin's voice sounded behind him: "What are you doing?"

Shuichi Akai froze, and he immediately raised his hands to indicate that he had no intention of resisting.

But before he could say anything, a third person's voice suddenly rang out in the room.

"That's what I want to ask, what are you doing?"

Gin and Akai Shuichi were both shocked.

They clearly didn't find anyone when they checked here just now!

Gin reached out and felt for the switch on the wall, and turned it on with a "click".

Then, the two people standing at the door saw Koizumi half-lying on the sofa wearing only home clothes.

Xiaoquan propped herself up and sat up. The blanket and books she had been covering her body all fell to the ground. She squinted her eyes, stretched out her hand to block the glaring light, and repeated in a hoarse voice: "What are you doing?"

Gin: "...You have been in this room just now?"

Koizumi stared at him, his face full of "are you crazy?" expression: "...What do you think?"

She stood up, limped to the desk, picked up the cup of water and drank it all in one gulp, then reached out and pulled over a chair and sat down.

However, this time I have to thank Shuichi Akai.

If he hadn't restrained Gin, he would probably be in trouble this time.

In order to upgrade the dummy substitute props, there was a huge gap in her singularity reserves, so Koizumi simply left the puppet at home as her substitute, turned herself into a cat and slipped out, found a place to disguise herself as a passerby, and continued her cause of collecting singularities.

Everything had been fine for some time, and there had been no problems. Even the shop assistants who came up several times a day to deliver food and drinks didn't notice that the person who had been staying in the reception room and obsessed with reading novels was just a dummy. But she didn't expect that Gin would suddenly attack her today.

Fortunately, she was vigilant and had made some arrangements at the door of her house. She also did not dare to leave the office too far away.

At the entrance of the cat cafe, the camera that Gin saw was actually just a decoy. The real trick was her new prop, the "toy eye surveillance camera."

Last time, after being reminded by Sakurai Izumi, Koizumi ran to a small professional DIY shop and bought some plastic eye parts for making dolls, and then he got a huge reward.

Sakurai Izumi's prediction was verified again.

This plastic eye part has only undergone the first upgrade, using only 65 singularities, and it has evolved into the ability of "monitoring"!

A pair of plastic eyes are like two highly concealed surveillance cameras, and after detecting a preset special situation, they will directly remind her through her consciousness.

This is also why Koizumi was able to return so quickly.

Before the camera at the door detected Gin, Koizumi had already received a prompt from the Toy Eye surveillance camera.

Then she immediately turned around and rushed back, first took off her disguise outside and changed into home clothes, then entered the house through the cat passage, and rushed to the second floor without paying attention to Shuichi Akai who was standing in the cat cafe on the first floor.

Then, Akai Shuichi, who discovered her whereabouts, followed her upstairs.

Then, just as Gin was about to come out of her bedroom, he discovered Shuichi Akai.

Koizumi rushed into the reception room and checked the puppet on the sofa. It was exactly the same as when she left, with no changes.

Fortunately, it was really fortunate that Gin had not yet carefully checked the reception room and did not discover her secret.

As long as there is no mistake, the rest will be easy!

She first attacked Shuichi Akai in cat form, helping Gin create an opportunity to sneak attack him, then immediately ran to the sofa and crawled into the blanket, put away the dummy and turned back into human form in one go.

Then the next thing happened.

Although she had found an excuse for going out for a night out in advance, if the substitute was exposed, it would mean that the plan for the subsequent "performance" would have to be overturned and all previous preparations would be wasted.

lesson!

I must be more careful next time!

In fact, Koizumi's heart was still beating wildly. He walked to the table to drink water to calm himself down and buy some time to calm down.

Putting down the cup and sitting on the chair, Koizumi looked at the two people at the door and said, "Explain, what's going on between you two?"

Gin poked Akai Shuichi's head with the gun in his hand and sneered: "Should I give you a chance to explain, Mr. Moroboshi?"

Koizumi: "...Don't kill anyone here. Even if there is a problem, take it away and deal with it. In fact, I want to ask, it's only been a few days, have you adjusted well, have you passed the probation period, and you're letting him take over as a follower? Vodka will cry."

Gin:......

I immediately lost interest after hearing what she said.

Akai Shuichi:......

Sakurai Izumi is actually helping him out?

Although he didn't understand why this woman wanted to help him, Shuichi Akai immediately seized the opportunity to explain.

"I just saw a dark shadow jumping up from downstairs, and I thought it was an intruder, so I went upstairs to check the situation. When I got to the second floor, I found something unusual, so I was alert and planned to investigate what was going on."

His tone was steady, his words were clear, his excuses were reasonable, and he didn't seem guilty at all.

Gin:......

Although if I were in Zhu Xingda's shoes, I would make the same choice.

But this man's calm attitude made him extremely annoyed, and he had clearly ordered this man to wait downstairs.

Gin sneered, swung his hand and smashed over with the butt of his gun.

Akai Shuichi was caught off guard and his body tilted and hit the wall, blood flowing from between his fingers as he covered his forehead.

But he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

My life is saved.

Koizumi frowned: "You really have to make this dirty?"

She bent down and pulled out a first aid kit from under the table and placed it on the table. She waved to Akai Shuichi, "Come here and take care of it yourself. Don't let the blood drip on the floor."

Akai Shuichi glanced at Gin and seeing that he had no objection, he walked over silently and treated the wound on his head.

Koizumi: "...I've said it before, I don't know whether it's your luck or bad luck to have a boss like Gin. It's obvious that your temper doesn't match his, and you're not suitable to be a superior and subordinate relationship."

Akai Shuichi's heart moved slightly.

Is Sakurai Izumi reminding him that there is something wrong with his attitude towards Gin?

Gin obviously understood what he said and frowned slightly.

Koizumi glanced at Gin and said sarcastically, "This guy is not as easy-going as me. He doesn't trust people who are smarter than him, nor does he trust people who are more capable than him. He still doesn't trust people who are easy-going and have no desires. With his temper, he only deserves vodka. He is stupid and honest and easy to bully.

"You've been in Tokyo for so long, but you haven't built up a single business. I, a new member, have made achievements, but you still have only a few people under you. You always look down on Rum, but Rum is much more capable than you. Look at the businesses he has. It's useless for you to be murderous. Did I say anything wrong? Can't you reflect on yourself?"

Gin:......

The hand holding the gun handle tightened again and again.

Here it comes again, just kill it!

Akai Shuichi:......

What’s going on? Gin isn’t moving. Are we not going to take action now?

If someone else said something like this, they would have been shot to death, but Sakurai was fine!

He really wanted to look back at Gin's expression at this moment, but he held back.

Have these two always been getting along like this?

Why does Gin indulge her so much?

It seems necessary to re-evaluate the importance of Sakurai Izumi.
