Refuse to allow Conan to join the main storyline

This year's Christmas tree on Zhanqian Street is indeed particularly eye-catching.

The huge Christmas tree, which is six stories high, is hung with colorful lights. Every bulb shines with warm light, illuminating the entire street.

Shops on Zhanqian Street have also hung up Christmas decorations, and various colorful lights are lit up at night, making the entire street look like a fairy tale world.

It was almost dawn when Koizumi and Furukaya Rei arrived, but there were still many passers-by here, all of them with smiles on their faces, which made people feel relaxed involuntarily.

Furiya Rei didn't say anything, and Koizumi didn't say anything either.

They stood under the Christmas tree, their eyes not meeting, and they seemed strangers to each other, as if they were two lonely trees, standing there independently, waiting for their own encounter.

Furiya Rei has been observing Koizumi's every move in silence.

After she arrived at Zhanqian Street, she was not affected by the lively and joyful atmosphere here. She first paid attention to several entrances and exits nearby, then scanned the area. After not finding any suspicious persons, she glanced at the Christmas tree, then quickly pulled up her hood and continued to guard against possible small-probability risks.

This set of reactions is really standard and skilled, so skilled...

They didn't have to wait long before the door of a nearby restaurant opened and Ida Hang and Natalie walked out.

However, Idahang didn't seem to have any intention of going home with Natalie, and just sent her to a taxi.

Almost at the same time, Jinpei Matsuda and Kenji Hagiwara came out of the KTV with a group of people to say goodbye.

Three people were walking towards the Christmas tree from two directions.

Koizumi suddenly understood.

Turning around, she saw Zhu Fu Jingguang coming towards her from the intersection.

She chuckled and asked, "Is this considered a capture operation?"

Furuya Rei raised his lip corners: "If you think so, you are right. How about you try to resist arrest? I am still looking forward to your performance."

Koizumi: ...

The four guys surrounded her from three directions, not only cutting off her retreat, but also had their eyes locked on her, not to mention that there was a Furuya Rei standing next to her.

Oh no.

If you insist, there is still a glimmer of hope.

That is……

Koizumi looked up at the huge Christmas tree in front of him and said with a smile: "Well, if you really want to try, I can fulfill your wish."

Fūya Ling was stunned and turned to look at her.

In this situation, is there any way for her to escape?

Suddenly, there was a "bang" sound from somewhere not far away, as if something exploded.

All the pedestrians on the road were frightened and turned their heads to look over there.

Furiya Rei didn't turn his head, his eyes were fixed on Koizumi.

Then he was shocked to find that the person in front of him suddenly disappeared, and a black shadow suddenly jumped out from under his feet.

Fūya Rei subconsciously reached out to grab it, but the little thing's movements were too fast. He hesitated for a moment before the black shadow jumped onto the Christmas tree in front of him and hid among the colorful lights, disappearing in an instant.

Jianggu Ling:......

Keimitsu Morifushi and Kenji Hagiwara walked up to Rei Furuya, and the three of them stood side by side and looked up at the Christmas tree in front of them.

Jinpei Matsuda and Kou Date were both attracted by the sound of the suspected explosion and went to check the situation over there.

But soon the two came back and said they didn't see anything unusual. They met with the patrolman who came to check the situation and found out that the patrolman guessed that a passing car had a flat tire, and then the matter was left unresolved.

The five people looked at each other, and then could only look up in vain to find the black cat who might still be hiding in the Christmas tree.

As they were searching, Zhufu Jingguang suddenly laughed, patted Furuya Ling's shoulder, and motioned him to turn around and look behind.

Furutani Rei followed his gaze and saw Koizumi strolling out of the supermarket on the shopping street, holding a can of newly bought Coke in his hand.

Zhu Fu Jingguang leaned close to Fūya Ling's ear and asked softly, "Are you convinced?"

Jianggu Ling:......

What's wrong with your tone? Why are you so proud?

Hagiwara Kenji smiled and waved at Koizumi: "Izumi-chan! Over here, over here!"

Koizumi: ...

After solving her psychological problems, or after becoming familiar with the subject, she seemed to be less averse to this kind of address?

Well, forget it.

She walked up to the five people and gave Furuya Ling a provocative look: "Are you convinced?"

Jianggu Ling:......

He turned around and looked at Zhu Fu Jingguang again.

Koizumi: Where are we going next?

Matsuda Jinpei swung the key in his hand: "Interrogation room. The one you gave to Hagiwara."

Hagiwara Kenji put his hand on Matsuda's shoulder and laughed, saying, "The ingredients are ready, the wine and snacks are bought, the people are all here, the cook is in place, you don't have to go to work tomorrow, everything is ready!"

Everyone is here...

Koizumi hesitated for a moment.

Why should I join in on the party of five of them?

Before she could think about it, five people surrounded her.

Matsuda Jinpei said with a smile: "Hey, as the protagonist, you can't have other plans, right?"

Koizumi: ...

He lowered his head and pretended to take out his cell phone to take a look.

"……No."

"Yeah, gogogo!"

------

The new repair shop that Koizumi prepared for Kenji Hagihara was basically the same size and layout as the original one.

However, with the experience of the previous room, Koizumi not only asked Nekozuka to prepare two bedrooms, but also directly replicated the original training room, but she did not build a boxing ring.

The place is not big to begin with, and the little space is all taken up by this thing.

But if Matsuda still insisted on doing it, then she would have nothing to say.

Koizumi took a look around the repair shop and found that Hagiwara and Matsuda were quite quick. In just over half a month, they had almost finished sorting things out. Even if they needed to take on jobs like vehicle repair and maintenance, there would be absolutely no problem.

Hey, these two guys.

She said she didn't need it and didn't need to ask them, but she was still prepared.

She strolled to the kitchen and saw Morobushi Keimitsu busying around, and the one helping him was... Ida Kou!

The other three were standing at the kitchen door, chatting and laughing, craning their necks to look inside, like a group of greedy cats waiting to be fed.

Koizumi was amused by the scene.

But she didn't go there, but went directly to the workshop, turned on the heater, turned into a cat, curled up on the sofa in the corner, closed her eyes and entered the system space.

Sakurai looked at her with a smile: "Not running away anymore?"

"I've thought about it seriously. As long as I continue to stay in Tokyo, I will have to deal with them sooner or later. There's no way around it."

"...Have you really thought about it?"

Koizumi sighed, "And to be honest, Hagiwara's actions touched me a lot."

"About his transfer to the Ministry of Public Security?"

"…No, it's about him constantly copying me on emails. This probably means that he is willing to accept me and treat me as one of his own."

Sakurai smiled and said, "Matsuda also said that, don't you remember?"

"You mean the email analyzing the new bomb?"

"That's right. Oh, if only this guy could be more frank."

"Be frank? Like Dr. Gu?"

Sakurai: "...He's not being frank, he's being shameless!"

"Hahaha!"

"Here, look."

Sakura motioned to her.

Perhaps they noticed that Koizumi had been missing for a long time, so the three greedy cats that had been surrounding the kitchen door ran out to look for her.

Matsuda squatted in front of the sofa, fiddling with the black cat's whiskers with a sly smile on his face. Seeing that she seemed to be sleeping soundly and had no reaction, he was about to stroke her when Hagiwara Kenji grabbed her by the collar and dragged her away.

Furukaya Rei looked around and didn't find anything to cover her, so he moved the heater closer to her and walked away quietly with light steps.

Koizumi: ...

Sakurai looked at her with a smile and said nothing more.

Koizumi took a deep breath: "...Okay. Then I'll try to trust them once. Anyway, the worst outcome is that I immediately change sides and completely side with the black side.

"I just tell them everything I can. As for how they think and react, that's their problem."

Sakurai looked at her and smiled: "You really care about them."

"Ok?"

"For you, this so-called worst outcome is the easiest to resolve, right? Just kill all the people who know your secret. For you now, it's very simple, isn't it?"

Koizumi: ...

Not to mention the question of whether the protagonist can actually do it.

"...I worked so hard to save this person, and then you just disposed of him yourself? I am sick!"

After saying that, he left the system space directly.

Sakurai smiled and shook his head: "Why don't you just admit openly that you can't bear to give it up?"
