Refuse to allow Conan to join the main storyline

"Aren't you going to refute the accusations against Rum?"

Koizumi smiled.

"If it was before today, I would have explained it to you. But now, does it still matter?"

Gin sneered and said nothing.

"You just met me... No, I should say that when we met, you knew how I joined the organization and what was going on around me at that time."

"Ah."

Gin pointed the hand holding the cigarette at Furukaya Rei and Morobushi Kagemitsu behind her.

"So these two too?"

Koizumi pulled the corner of his mouth.

"Well, I know you hate the police, but I don't want to lie to you. So I'll tell you the truth, including the Japanese Public Security Bureau, the FBI and the CIA, there will be more and more people like them in the future."

"reason."

"I've said it before, the police are also very useful tools as long as they are used properly."

Gin glanced at the strange expressions of Furuya Rei and Morobushi Keimitsu and sneered, "You said that in front of them?"

Koizumi spread his hands and said, "What's the use of telling them? They should have known what kind of person I am."

Then, she turned around and asked with a smile, "Right?"

Fūya Rei had a cold face and said nothing.

Zhu Fu Jingguang smiled and said, "Although I'm mentally prepared, I still feel a little surprised."

Koizumi said in a leisurely tone: "I have said it before, there are no friendly people in this organization. Do you really believe it now?"

Zhu Fu Jingguang looked at her and then at Gin.

Now that his identity had been exposed, he no longer acted timidly and smiled at Gin calmly.

Gin sneered: "Alright. It looks much better this way."

Then he turned to Koizumi and said, "Watch your people carefully and don't cause me any trouble, or you know the consequences."

Koizumi curled his lips indifferently: "Don't worry, if someone holds me back, I won't need you, I will do it myself."

Gin also pulled the corners of his mouth into a cold arc: "It seems that you have learned the essence of rum style."

Jianggu Ling:......

Zhu Fu Jingguang:...

"It's you, Gin."

Koizumi extinguished the cigarette in his hand and said softly, "I think I have fulfilled my promise to you. If you want to leave, now should be the best time."

"Achieved?"

"You dare to say that you have achieved this? You'd better do it well. If I find out that you are going to write a bad ending, humph..."

Gin sneered: "To borrow your words, there are no one of us in this organization."

Koizumi was not scared at all, she smiled happily.

"OK, it's best if you don't leave. Otherwise, the mess left by Rum will really give me a headache. It's troublesome and a waste of time."

Gin: “…Tsk.”

"Even if you don't plan to bring Scotland with you, he is still a member of your task force. You can use him as you see fit, just don't let anyone notice anything unusual. Also, it seems like you still have too few people to work with. Pisco is untrustworthy, Jack Daniels doesn't understand that kind of business, and Vodka... well, I won't say anything."

Koizumi laughed teasingly and said, "Come to think of it, you really don't have the vision or luck to train your subordinates. How about I lend you that 'waste' Kiel?"

Gin choked.

Koizumi chuckled, "It's settled then. Once I'm settled here, I'll have the TSE financial team report to you."

Although Gin's face looked very ugly, he finally didn't say no.

"Hey, I was wondering why I couldn't find you guys. Why are you all here?"

Vermouth walked out of the building and walked towards them in high heels.

Koizumi turned his head and saw a group of men in black stuffing Chianti into the trunk of a car.

"Why, you're leaving right away?"

Vermouth looked back over there and said with a smile: "You also saw the attitude of that gentleman."

"Ok."

Koizumi nodded and handed over the metal medicine box containing a fourth-level rejuvenation drug.

Vermouth took it and opened it, then looked at the capsule. Then he turned his gaze to Koizumi and asked tentatively, "So, this is really the result of Rum's research?"

Koizumi nodded seriously and firmly: "Yes."

Vermouth stared at her face for a long while, and finally showed an expression that was neither a smile nor a smile.

"Okay. Then I wish you good luck, and I hope the investigation can make progress soon."

She threw the red and white capsules back into the medicine box and put them away, then opened her hands to Koizumi again.

Koizumi looked at the hand and didn't understand what Vermouth meant.

"Didn't you say you would come to England to help me with the mission? What, are you going to break your promise?"

Koizumi raised an eyebrow.

That was originally just an excuse to distinguish the real Vermouth from the fake one, but since she took the initiative to invite me, it wouldn't be a bad idea to take some time to go over and play around.

Thinking of this, Koizumi casually put a five-yen coin into Vermouth's hand.

Vermouth rubbed the coin, looked at Koizumi's face, and said faintly, "You should know where I will send him, right?"

Koizumi nodded: "I know."

A mountain villa in Tottori, dusk annex.

Vermouth narrowed her eyes: "So, you really only give me one of this thing?"

Koizumi: “Yes, I’m sure.”

Now that we know the name, there are plenty of ways to find the place even without the help of coins to teleport.

Moreover, she would not rashly venture into that area before making adequate preparations.

Vermouth looked at Koizumi's expression, and seeing that she was determined, she smiled and nodded.

"Okay, whatever you want."

She put away the coin, came over and kissed Koizumi on the cheek: "Goodbye then, little Mello."

Koizumi smiled and said, "Okay. Tell me when you're settled, and I'll go play with you."

Vermouth straightened up and looked at Gin beside her with a smile.

Gin snorted and stepped back.

"hehe."

Vermouth waved and turned away.

After walking a short distance, she suddenly seemed to remember something and turned around and asked casually, "By the way, Merlot, do you know the price of Imperial Jade Wine?"

Koizumi was stunned.

Furuya Rei and Morobushi Kagemitsu, who had been listening in silence without much presence, said: …

What kind of wine is Palace Jade Liquor?

A new alcohol brand?

Gin frowned, "Are you still asking about this? Are you sure this is the code name for the Tokyo District?"

Jianggu Ling + Zhu Fu Jingguang:...

That's right. According to the organization's habit of giving code names, this might really be the code name of an unknown member of the organization.

Vermouth ignored Gin's words. She just looked at Koizumi's expression. Seeing that she was just stunned and had no other expression, she shrugged her shoulders indifferently and waved her hand.

"Nothing, I'm just asking."

However, just as she turned and took a step forward, she suddenly heard Koizumi say behind her.

"I know."

Vermouth stopped and turned to look at her with a half-smile: "Oh?"

Koizumi's heart was beating as fast as a drum, he felt a little dizzy, and his whole body was shaking uncontrollably.

She heard her own trembling voice saying, "One hundred and eight, one cup."

Vermouth's eyes suddenly widened.

The two looked at each other in shock for a long time, and no one knew how to continue.

After a while, Koizumi said uncertainly: "?"

Vermouth's eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "."

Then, without waiting for Koizumi to speak, he continued: "28, 29?"

Koizumi blurted out: "31."

At this moment, Vermouth looked at Koizumi with eyes full of enthusiasm and surprise. She didn't care about the three people with strange expressions beside her, and stepped forward to hug Koizumi: "I finally, finally, finally waited for you!"

It was only at this moment that Koizumi began to feel something real.

She pushed Vermouth away slightly: "Hey, 2023, what about you?"

A complex emotion flashed across Vermouth's face, and she said softly, "It's not me. He's from 1999."

Koizumi:!!!

he? !
