Refuse to allow Conan to join the main storyline

The sharp sound of gunfire rang out again.

Although there was obstruction from the view by Fūya Rei and Morobushi Keimitsu, anyone with a discerning eye could still understand the situation here.

Vermouth took a shot at Mello/Boss Sakurai!

But what was strange was that the two people standing next to Mello/the boss, Scotch Whisky and Amuro Toru, not only did not try to stop it, but they all remained strangely silent, without any expression, and did not even move, as if the gunshot just now was an auditory hallucination of everyone.

What’s even more strange is that not only them, but even the shooter Vermouth herself remained strangely silent.

The three men stood around Mello/the boss, with their heads down, not speaking or moving, looking like they were observing a moment of silence in front of the corpse...

In this weird atmosphere, the commotion in the bar gradually grew louder, and some people couldn't hold their temper anymore.

Kenji Hagiwara grabbed Matsuda Jinpei's wrist tightly and tried to persuade him urgently.

"Don't be impulsive, Zhen Ping! No matter who takes the lead, it shouldn't be you! You..."

"Shut up!"

Jinpei Matsuda gritted his teeth and tried his best to control his emotions, but veins on his forehead were still throbbing.

"Sakurai, that bastard, that bastard! She's... an asshole again!"

Hagiwara Kenji completely understood his feelings, because he was equally anxious. The persuasion he kept mumbling was addressed to Matsuda Jinpei as well as to himself.

"Calm down. Look, the two people over there didn't react. She must be fine. She must be fine..."

The armed team members of TSE were also whispering.

"Boss, she...Boss is dead?"

"...No way. If something really happened to the boss, shouldn't Amuro-san have no reaction? Hasn't he always been the boss's man?"

"Is he? Isn't he Rum's little brother?"

"No way? He has been helping the boss."

"But why didn't he show any reaction when Vermouth shot the boss just now?"

"…Maybe because that shot didn't actually hit the boss?"

"But two minutes have already passed. Did you see the boss move even a little bit? I, I want to go over and take a look!"

"Don't move, don't forget the task assigned to us!"

"But!"

"Besides, it's not your turn to go over and see. Look, hasn't Boss Gao Mu already gone over there?"

But Ken Takagi was stopped by Nekozuka.

"... Gin is moving too!"

What on earth are those four people over there doing?

It would be fine if Toru Amuro and Scotland's behavior was so strange, but it is definitely not easy to cause such an abnormal situation in Vermouth.

...Did she really beat Melo to death? !

Gin couldn't sit still anymore.

"Vodka, stay here and wait."

"Okay, big brother."

At this moment, in the center of everyone's attention, three people were silently looking at Koizumi who was hanging his head and making no sound.

Looking at the hole on her chest, the black coat gradually being soaked by "water stains", and smelling the increasingly strong smell of rust on her body.

This is the taste of death.

Sakurai, died again...

As far as they know, this is the fourth time!

Her resurrection is definitely not infinite, how many times is left?

Will there be a next time...

Fūya Rei just felt heartbroken.

He turned his head and glanced at Zhu Fu Jingguang's face beside him with a little worry.

Zhu Fu looked pale, dazed, and as if he had been shocked.

Fortunately, Vermouth on the opposite side was concentrating on staring at Sakurai at this time and did not notice what was wrong with Morobushi Keimitsu.

Fūya Rei took a deep breath to calm the complex emotions in his chest, quietly observed the situation around him, and then he was shocked.

He didn't care whether Koizumi could hear him at this moment, and urged in a low voice: "Hurry up Sakurai, Gin is coming."

Vermouth suddenly raised her head and glanced at Furukaya Rei.

Koizumi heard it.

She was also very anxious, but there was nothing she could do.

After Vermouth shot her to death, Koizumi returned to the system space.

"Thanks for going out just now, Sakurai."

It was only at this point that they had the opportunity to talk and communicate.

"You're welcome. It's my honor. When do you plan to be resurrected?"

"Wait a minute to let your body functions cool down. I'm afraid the aftereffects of the device haven't completely subsided yet."

"…Why do I have to die this time? I don't have to die, right?"

"Because that body is already in a semi-paralyzed state. Even if I consume singularity points to repair it, I cannot be sure that the damage to the nervous system can be completely restored. And I must be in the most perfect state to talk to Karasuma Renya. In summary, restarting is the best option."

Sakurai was silent.

“…This is the fourth time.”

"Yeah. I remember that. How's the danger sense?"

"Everything will be fine after you kill Konishi Ryoko."

"Okay. System, sacrifice and resurrection! Repair, repair directly to the best condition!"

Sakurai took a deep breath and returned to his supporting state: "The CD for resurrection is one minute, and the body will be stiff for about three minutes."

"OK."

"spring……"

"Ok?"

"Don't do this kind of thing in front of the Five again."

Koizumi knew what Sakurai wanted to say.

She also noticed that Furiya Rei looked fine, but Morobushi looked terrible and seemed like he was about to collapse.

Considering that Matsuda and Hagiwara were also present, those two, especially Matsuda, might also...

Koizumi clenched his fists silently.

"...Well, no."

"Attention, Gin is coming!"

"I'm going out."

Gin strode over to the four people, and his heart sank when he saw Mello's condition.

Mello sat quietly with his head down.

The hole in the chest at the heart position, the strong smell of blood, and a small pool of fresh blood dripping on the floor all explained what had just happened.

Gin clenched his teeth suddenly and his breathing stagnated.

This was something he had never expected.

Mello is really dead.

He killed Rum, then killed Konishi Yoshiko, and then died at the hands of Vermouth.

She actually died in such a meaningless place?

Then, how will things progress? What should he do?

Gin stared at Koizumi's body in silence and lit a cigarette.

Since Vermouth killed Mello, should he kill Vermouth himself?

Then just defect and run away.

Anyway, the shackles that gentleman put on him have been opened, and no one can control him now.

Come to think of it, is this also the "freedom" that Melo gave him?

She didn't break her promise.

Gin put the cigarette in his hand between Koizumi's fingers and said silently in his heart...

"Thank you."

As Koizumi spoke, he raised his hand, brought the cigarette to his lips and took a puff.

Gin's heart suddenly skipped a beat and his eyes suddenly widened.

Vermouth had the same reaction as him.

Fūya Rei and Morobushi Kagemitsu breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed a little.

Koizumi raised his head with a smile and looked at the four people around him.

"Okay, it's finally time to wrap up. Gin, Bayonetta, you two come over here too."

As she spoke, she stood up with a contented expression, even jumped a few times on the spot, put her clothes in order, and then walked away briskly.

Although they didn't understand what had happened, the crowd who had been watching anxiously finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Boss, what on earth are you doing? I'm scared to death!"

"That's right, boss. This is not the time to play 123, statue!"

"Ahahaha, sorry, sorry, there was a little problem temporarily."

Koizumi smiled and waved to the members of the armed team as he walked.

Seeing that she really seemed to be fine, everyone finally felt relieved.

Small situation...

The four people watching her from behind: ...

the other side.

Amid the finally relaxed atmosphere and complaints around him, Kenji Hagiwara let out a long sigh and then dared to let go of Jinpei Matsuda's wrist.

"Alright, alright, it's alright."

"Nothing? Humph..."

Matsuda Jinpei sneered through gritted teeth: "This time I will beat her until she cries!"

Kenji Hagiwara glanced at his best friend with a complicated expression but didn't dare to speak his mind.

Have you forgotten about the Christmas party?

It's more likely that she'll beat you until you cry, Xiao Zhenping...

Koizumi scanned the entire room, silently taking in the current situation.

Just now, she was concentrating on dealing with Konishi Ryoko and had no idea what was going on in Nekozuka. Now, she saw...

Emanuel's face was full of horror and fear.

Nae Oyamada was very calm and looked like she had just made some decision.

These two people were very close to the place where she died, and they probably saw clearly what happened just now.

As for how they interpreted the fact that he was not dead but was still alive and kicking, Koizumi didn't care.

Anyway, no matter how they imagine it, the result will be beneficial to them.

Cohen is dead.

Unexpectedly, Chianti was also knocked down. He was lying on the ground motionless and no one knew what was going on.

Ethan Bendou was hiding behind the armed squad, still alive and seemingly uninjured.

Vodka looked at Gin's expression with fear.

Gin looked at Morobushi Keimitsu with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Well, it seems that Morobushi and Gin’s fate has ended, so why not let him and Fūya become partners.

Koizumi glanced again at Vermouth who was following silently behind him.

When their eyes met, Vermouth smiled lazily and pointed at the monitor on the bar. Her meaning was obvious, urging her to finish the rest of the matter as soon as possible.

Koizumi raised the corners of his mouth.

"Oh, that was a close call. If I had reacted a little slower, I might have been caught and sliced."

As she spoke, she smiled provocatively at the monitor on the bar: "Right, sir?"

Ignoring the black silhouette's reaction, Koizumi sat back down in the center of the original Rum.

She deliberately crossed her legs, propped her arms on the armrests of the chair, crossed her hands to make a pyramid shape, and smiled as she spread her hands towards the black silhouette opposite her.

"Okay. I'll give you another chance to choose again."
