Refuse to allow Conan to join the main storyline

The rest of November returned to its usual "ordinary" state.

On the surface, Koizumi completes tasks and plays with cats every day, discusses security company matters with her three bodyguards, and then rides her scooter around downtown Tokyo all day, or stays at the office reading novels.

Secretly, she frequently appeared in the organization's territory under the disguise of Zhu Fu Jingguang, and prepared a safe house as a foothold using Zhu Fu Jingguang's identity, as bait for Gin, and as a decoy to cover up her whereabouts.

After all, it is impossible for her to always act under the identity of Zhu Fu Jingguang. There will always be times when the other party cannot find her.

With this refresh point, I believe that when Gin decides to deal with him, he will start from the safe house and set up an ambush nearby.

This will also make it easier for Koizumi to make targeted preparations for the subsequent pursuit phase.

As an undercover agent sent by the Metropolitan Police Department to the organization, you can't just surrender without any resistance and wait for death. That would be too fake.

And given Koizumi's understanding of the coercive power of the world's will, there is a high probability that she will be forced to go to a rooftop somewhere and replicate the classic scene in the original work.

The only question now is when Gin will choose to launch the attack.

Koizumi originally guessed that Gin would take action soon, and Gin had originally planned to do so, but an unexpected incident disrupted their plans.

The U.S. Consulate in Japan sent Koizumi a formal letter stating that TSE had passed their assessment, and the consulate agreed to have TSE form an additional security team for them and sign a five-year cooperation agreement. At the same time, it also implicitly expressed that they hoped Koizumi could formally invite them to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the Sakurai Building.

Then, Koizumi received a call from Rum.

"Wow, it's rare that you actually called me on your own initiative."

"Has the consulate sent you a letter?"

"Yeah, I just received it and am reading it. What kind of magic did you use to deal with them so quickly? It's amazing."

"Hey, wanna know?"

"No, don't tell me."

"..."

"If that's all you want to talk to me about, I'll get it done as soon as possible. How about early December?"

"Okay. So, did my actions achieve your expected goals?"

The corner of Koizumi's eye twitched.

I don’t know whether this guy Rum knows the identity of the experimental subject of her organization.

She laughed. "Not even close. Come on, Mr. Wakita."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

There is nothing much to say about the subsequent arrangements.

In order to prevent Gin from launching a surprise attack on "Morofushikū" at this time, Koizumi specifically greeted him first and made it clear that he would not be able to leave Tokyo to carry out the mission in the near future.

As expected, Gin was very cooperative and said that the task was not urgent and could be postponed.

Then, Akemi Miyano and Eri Kisaki prepared to sign the documents needed for the cooperation, Nekozuka and Ken Takagi prepared to prepare for the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the Sakurai Building, and let Ababashi do the pre-promotion in the media.

Koizumi first reported the matter to the "highest official" of the Public Security Bureau, and then reported it to the Metropolitan Police Department on behalf of Morobushi Keimitsu. Then she deliberately waited a few more days, and then went to the Metropolitan Police Department and the Public Security Bureau separately in the identity of the boss of TSE Company to inform them of the matter, and invited the Metropolitan Police Department to send someone with the status of a consul general to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Finally, Koizumi looked up the almanac of the Flower Country on the dark web and specially selected an auspicious day when all other events were unlucky, and set the date for the ribbon-cutting and signing ceremony on December 12.

In short, because of this incident, Koizumi and her security company became popular again, and by the way, it also boosted a wave of cat cafe business.

I heard from the guys at the cat cafe that recently all the people coming to the cat cafe are middle-aged uncles and aunts who came from nowhere, and there are also many foreigners. They don’t pet the cats or feed them snacks, but just sit there and look around to gather information. Some of them even try to sneak into the office upstairs.

However, after experiencing the theft in the office during the previous bombing, Daju was extremely strict in guarding the second floor.

Although Koizumi had set up many anti-theft measures, none of them were used. All the people were repelled by her cat team's younger brothers.

On December 12, under the watchful eyes of the public, not only did the ribbon-cutting ceremony go smoothly, but the subsequent process of signing the cooperation agreement also went smoothly. Everything went very smoothly.

By the way, Superintendent Hakuba, whose underwear was secretly photographed by a member of the Cat Group, came in person and praised Koizumi in public.

Koizumi was really looking forward to hearing him say something like "What do you want?" so that she could punch him in the face with a clear conscience.

But I didn't wait.

What a pity.

Therefore, it remains to be seen who will be the first to kill the police chief.

To sum it up, everything went too smoothly today, which is totally unfortunate for this auspicious day!

Conclusion: feudal superstition is not credible!

On December 12, when Koizumi received the email from Gin, he knew that the final battle of the Morobushi Keiko incident was finally coming.

------

That night, when Koizumi arrived at the Daikoku Bar, he saw Gin sitting alone at a table.

Vodka, Hikaru Midorikawa and Ethan Hondou sat around another table.

However, Midorikawa and Ethan Hondou both have expressionless and cold personalities, leaving only Vodka who can't talk to anyone, and the atmosphere looks very awkward.

She glanced over there casually, without saying hello, and sat down next to Gin.

"What kind of mission is it? Why is it left here waiting for me? Did you tailor it for me?"

Gin held a cigarette in his mouth, raised his eyelids and glanced at her, and changed the subject directly: "Are you done with your work?"

Knowing that this person would not bother to find excuses to perfunctorily deal with her and would definitely not explain, Koizumi simply did not continue to pursue the previous topic: "Well, I'm done. Miyano Akemi will take care of the rest, so I don't have to worry about it for the time being."

Gin pulled the corner of his mouth: "I didn't expect that the waste could be of some use."

Koizumi tilted his head and looked at him with a smile.

Gin:......

He exhaled a puff of smoke: "...You have good taste."

Koizumi chuckled, "It's good that you know. Tell me what it is that requires me to do this. Let me tell you in advance, if it's a boring task, I will refuse it."

Gin put out his cigarette and said, "Let's go to Kamakura."

Koizumi raised his eyebrows: "Kamakura? Are you asking me to find that copy of Irasai Biroku?"

Gin looked at her in surprise: "How do you know?"

"I saw it on the mission list when you first brought me to the Daikoku Bar to take the mission. At that time, I thought that if I had the chance to go to Kamakura or nearby, I could stop by and take a look. A mission that no one has been able to complete for a year and a half, and you just threw it to me like that?"

Gin:......

It's a bit surprising that she knew it so clearly.

"I later searched for details about this book, and guess what happened?"

Koizumi paused deliberately. "The intelligence says that this is an ancient book, but the content is a strange novel related to Yin-Yang magic."

She looked at Gin with a strange expression: "The organization is still researching such weird things?"

Gin:......

When he came to Tokyo, this mission was already on the list, and he really never paid attention to it. This time he just randomly assigned her a mission that looked troublesome, but he didn't expect that Mello had actually investigated it!

"So, do you know where the book is?"

"do not know."

Koizumi spread his hands and said, "I didn't plan to do it anyway. I just learned about it out of curiosity."

"Then you can continue to investigate carefully and complete the task quickly."

"Oh, that's troublesome. If it's a particularly important task, just do it yourself."

Gin stared.

"That's right! There's no beginning or end. You have to search the whole city for something you don't know what it is. Not only is there a time limit, but if you can't find it, you will be deducted from your salary and performance and put on the clearance list. Only a person with a mental disorder would accept such a task."

Gin clicked his tongue and said, "No punishment, no money will be deducted from you."

"Oh~ I still don't want to go."

"..."

"Okay, then give me a week. Don't blame me if you can't find it."

"……Can."

Koizumi looked at Gin with suspicion. "Tell me the truth, why did you insist on sending me out of Tokyo? Are you still planning to target my security company? I'm warning you, if you break in again and trigger the alarm, I'll have the Metropolitan Police Department arrest you."

Gin: "Set a time and leave quickly, and let Jack Daniel go with you."

"Jack again! Can you give me a travel partner? I'm sure Midorikawa can drive, can he? At least he's younger."

"The time is set, hurry up and leave!"

"Why don't you come with me? I heard the shrine in Kamakura is pretty good and worth a visit."

The veins on Gin's forehead were throbbing.

"Get lost. If you can't find your things, you'll be put on the cleanup list!"

"whispering sound."

Koizumi's face turned cold in an instant, and he stood up and left.

"Jack Daniel, keep an eye on him. Don't let him leave your sight for even a second! Leave tonight and don't come back without my order."

Jack Daniel glanced at Gin's face, then stood up and followed him: "Got it."

When he came out of the Daikoku Bar, Koizumi was indeed waiting for him downstairs.

The two men walked to the parking lot in silence, got into their cars, and turned on their respective signal jammers.

Koizumi then smiled and said, "Jack, it's time for you to return the favor."
