Refuse to allow Conan to join the main storyline

After confirming that the room was safe inside and outside, Koizumi released the cow cat again.

This guy had obviously seen what was happening outside through the light screen in the system space. After coming out, he no longer made hysterical screams, but nodded to Koizumi very reservedly.

[Boss, have you received Ares's message? He came pretty quickly...]

Before it finished meowing, Koizumi flicked his finger on its forehead. The force was a bit too strong, and a "dang" sound was heard.

The Cow Cat was hit unexpectedly and shouted in surprise: [Hey, why are you hitting me! ]

Xiaoquan kept poking its forehead with one finger and said in a deep voice: "Why do you think I hit you? Aren't you quite smart? Guess."

The cow cat shrank back guiltily, narrowed his eyes, and pulled his ears back, while still shouting stubbornly: [I, how would I know! ]

Koizumi grabbed its scruff and said, "You don't know? Don't blame me for being rude. Go into the dark room and come out when you figure it out."

The small black room is the system's portable space backpack.

Before Koizumi discovered Sakurai and the system room, the creatures put into the system were locked in a place like this.

According to the black cat's description, it was a small space where you couldn't tell up from down, left from right, and you could only see faint starlight. There was no sound around, and if you stayed there for a while longer, you would feel very lonely, and then scared. After experiencing it a few times, it said it really didn't want to go into that place again.

After Koizumi discovered Sakurai and the room she was in, he ignored the matter of the space backpack.

Later, one time, Koizumi was worried that she couldn't deal with the two little devils, the tabby cat and the cow cat, who were becoming more and more lawless. It was the little black cat who gave her the idea and asked Koizumi to lock them up in a small dark room.

The results are remarkable and immediate.

After just one experience, the tabby cat became obedient, and the cow cat also became obedient for quite a long time.

Because she was afraid that her cat would develop mental problems from being tortured, the small dark room was shelved and never started again.

However, not using it does not mean that its deterrent effect will decrease.

Later, even if the tabby cat just heard Koizumi say the word "small dark room", it would immediately come back to its senses from its madness.

Gradually, a rumor spread among her cat brothers.

It is said that if anyone disobeys orders and acts without authorization during a mission, they will be locked up in a small dark room by the cat demon boss. Then the cat demon boss will drink its blood and eat its flesh, turning the disobedient guy into food for its own cultivation! So far, no cat that has been locked up has ever come out alive, and so on.

It is difficult to dispel rumors among humans, let alone in the cat world where rumors spread even faster than among humans.

Koizumi knew very well that this kind of thing must have been first told by a tabby cat or a cow cat.

Because the only ones who might be locked up in the small dark room by her were the four cats she had put into the storage space, but Daju and Heijiang were not talkative cats.

Meow no longer cares what the rumor was like in the beginning. Her little cat brothers only care about whether they will be the next one to be in the little black room.

Perhaps it was also due to the influence of these rumors that the attitude of these cat brothers towards her, the "cat demon boss", became more and more fanatical...

Fortunately, due to the intimidation of the small dark room, these guys would not dare to get too close to her even if they met her, so they did not bring unnecessary trouble to Koizumi's work and life.

As for why the rumors are getting more and more outrageous...

Well, that's what rumors are like, whether they are among humans or cats.

Cow Cat hasn't heard of the "little dark room" for a long time. When he suddenly heard this word today, he knew that Koizumi was really angry this time, the kind that couldn't be coaxed.

So it immediately surrendered and admitted its mistake.

【I'm sorry, I was wrong! 】

"What's wrong?"

【Everything is wrong! 】

"Um?!"

[I, I shouldn't have ignored Ares and Heijiang's advice, I shouldn't have taken the risk, I knew it was dangerous for cats and sneaked in to investigate! ]

[Also, I shouldn't have yelled when the boss came to rescue me, alerting the enemy to your presence! ]

[I shouldn't have rushed towards your face. Not only did I hinder your movement, but I also blocked your vision, which gave the enemy an opportunity to take advantage! ]

[Also, I shouldn't have been so stubborn. I should have admitted my mistake right away! ]

[I'm sorry, I was wrong, please give me a chance to atone for my sins! ]

The Cow Cat carefully raised his head to glance at Koizumi's face, and seeing that her expression was a little strange, he quickly added in a low voice.

[I shouldn't have spoken so loudly. It might have alerted the enemies outside.]

【I'm sorry, I was wrong! 】

Koizumi: ...

At this point her imagination had already soared to the clouds.

Just as reckless as Conan, just as smart, and just as capable of learning and possessing knowledge beyond his class...

Could it be that the will of the world discovered that the protagonist of the world was turned gay by her, and is planning to develop another Conan cat to serve as a substitute?

However, the sheriff is much better than Conan in at least one aspect, and that is knowing what's good for him!

When facing an enemy you know you can't defeat, such as her, you should know not to be stubborn and a man of insight becomes a wise man.

As for how much of the admission of mistakes is sincere, and whether they will really change for the better in the future?

That’s a problem for later.

Anyway, just admit your mistakes whenever you make them.

The little guy knows very well that Koizumi will never really do anything to him. At most, he will be angry for a few days. You can punish him with some snacks, and then he can act cute and coax him for a few days. Then, you can let Daju and Heijiang say some nice things to him, and Koizumi will calm down soon.

After being scolded by this little guy, Koizumi really couldn't get angry anymore.

She originally wanted to teach the Cow Cat a lesson, but before she could open her mouth, the Cow Cat quickly started to make amends.

[Boss, I have some first-hand intelligence I just discovered to report to you! It's really important!]

Koizumi: ...

Well, now is not the time to teach the cat a lesson. We should take care of serious matters.

"explain."

The cow cat jumped onto the desk and squatted down, wagging its tail and saying excitedly: "I know where Rum's secret information is. The part about the presidents of the companies downstairs is in the information room next door! I guess Kenichiro Nozu must have other important documents in his hands."

Eh? !

Seeing that Koizumi didn't quite believe it.

Cow Cat said eagerly: [Really! Didn't you ask us to investigate the industries and people under Rum in January? Most of the people who are meeting in the large conference room on the third floor look familiar to me. I can confirm that they are the presidents who were followed and investigated at that time.]

[When I was lurking in the conference room, I heard Kenichiro Nozu talking about Gin's encirclement and suppression operation, saying that if his spies hadn't obtained Gin's action plan, more than five people would have died today.]

【Then, when everyone was panicking, he asked someone to bring out a pile of documents, saying it was an alliance agreement. As long as you signed the agreement, he, Kenichiro Nozu, would be responsible for providing weapons and protection. If you didn't agree, you wouldn't be able to leave the building today.】

Koizumi frowned: "Are there many people signing?"

[There is a lot of controversy among the presidents. Many people do not want to sign, saying that Kenichiro Nozu is just taking advantage of the situation. I guess there are some contents in the agreement that are not favorable to them.]

[However, Nozu Kenichiro shot and killed the two guys who were making the most trouble, and told them to think about it carefully. Then he asked his men to keep an eye on them. No one would be allowed to leave if even one of them didn't sign. Then he left the meeting room and went to the fifth floor.]

[I saw that there was nothing worth noting in the conference room, so I quietly followed Nozu Kenichiro to see if there was any other information.]

[Then I heard him tell his men to get evidence against the company presidents. If anyone is stubborn, throw that evidence in their faces as a threat. If they are still stubborn, just kill them.]

[When I heard this, I thought this was a good opportunity to get intelligence, so I didn’t follow them to the fifth floor, and followed them to the fourth floor.]

Hearing the cow cat's continuous "meowing" sounds, Koizumi suddenly turned his gaze towards the door of the room.

Suddenly, there were footsteps of more than one person outside the door, and soon they were standing at the door.

Koizumi motioned to the cow cat to continue speaking, and immediately turned into a cat, quietly sneaking to stand behind the door.

The cow cat's ears moved slightly, and it was obvious that it had noticed something unusual outside the door.

It took a defensive posture and continued to "meow" as Koizumi requested.

[The group of people who have the evidence are next door! I originally wanted to follow them in to take a peek, but I was discovered by accident. This person is the one you, Boss, killed. He brought me to this room, and when I was struggling to resist, you suddenly appeared.]

[Be careful, they are coming in! There are two of them, they are accomplices of the guys next door! ]
