Refuse to allow Conan to join the main storyline

Seeing that Koizumi just looked at him scrutinizingly and did not respond, Akai Shuichi continued.

"In addition, during this year in London, I have become more and more aware of the reality in front of me. Whether it is my FBI colleagues or my mother, they are not teammates that can match me.

"But it's definitely not going to work if I just rely on myself. If I want to achieve my goal, I have to find another way out.

"After much consideration, I'm sure that my only way out right now is with the organization. And you're the only person in the organization that I can trust and identify with."

Koizumi: ...

It's really crazy, but he is very confident in his madness.

What's more, Shuichi Akai was actually flattering her!

Although it was expressed very obscurely, Koizumi completely got it!

It must be admitted that Koizumi felt very happy that Shuichi Akai expressed his approval of her.

She curled her lips and smiled: "You mean, you want me to arrange a fast track for you to enter the organization, and preferably help you get a code name?"

"Yes."

"Are you ready to completely abandon the FBI and your mother?"

"If it's necessary, yes."

"……Oh."

Akai Shuichi:...?

He was a little unsure what Koizumi's reaction meant.

Both sides were silent for quite a long time, so long that Shuichi Akai thought the negotiations had failed and began to consider whether it was necessary to continue to increase the bargaining chips. Then Koizumi finally gave a response.

"Did you know that Rum was dead?"

Akai Shuichi didn't know why she suddenly mentioned this, and nodded: "I know."

"Then do you know how he died?"

"...I don't know."

After he left Tokyo, his FBI colleagues were also expelled from the organization because of Sakurai's design.

After that, the FBI completely lost its reliable source of intelligence on the organization, and the information about Rum's death was still delayed news leaked from the US consulate.

Later, the FBI went to the consulate to find Consul General Emanuel, but no matter how they asked, Emanuel insisted that he knew nothing, even though he was at the scene of the accident!

If asked urgently, he would just say, "The Ministry of Justice has no right to interfere in the work of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs," and then refuse to say anything else.

In short, it was almost two months after the incident at the Daikoku Bar that the news reached Shuichi Akai in London.

The only relevant information is:

Consul General Emanuel has collaborated with the organization on a deeper level.

Emanuel attended one of the organization's late-night gatherings.

Consul General Emanuel's translator, David Harris, and a bodyguard were killed at the party.

Rum was dead too.

That's all.

Shuichi Akai felt a little uneasy. He didn't understand why Sakurai suddenly mentioned this.

Is there something else going on that will affect their cooperation?

Then Akai Shuichi heard Koizumi say: "Rum, I killed him."

Akai Shuichi:! !

"Tokyo, I'm the boss now."

Akai Shuichi:? !

Vermouth, who had been watching the fun silently, suddenly coughed twice.

Koizumi: "...Well, Gin and I are the bosses together."

Shuichi Akai glanced quickly at Vermouth, and a series of inferences flashed through his mind.

Apparently, Sharon Wynyard was also present during that change in the organization.

She must also be a code member of the organization, and her status is not low. She can even restrain Sakurai to a certain extent.

So she is most likely a higher-level member of the organization?

If we go beyond Tokyo...

Could it be the supreme leader of the organization?

Therefore, Sharon Wynyard's actions in London were tasks assigned by the top of the organization.

If it could alert the higher-ups in the organization, then it seems that the disappearance of his father Akai Tsutomu must be related to the organization's secrets, or maybe even their secret research?

Could that secret research be some method to turn Sharon Wynyard into a little girl?

If he wanted to achieve this effect, there was only one possibility he could think of at the moment.

This may be the effect of some kind of medicine.

And since it can be used on important code members, it seems that the efficacy of the drug is quite stable and even has a certain healing effect?

If it is true, the effect of this drug is really amazing!

Whether it is rapid healing or transformation, once the results are announced, it will definitely cause a huge shock around the world.

Secondly, before Sakurai appeared, Sharon Wynyard had never used a similar transformation method.

So could it be that Sakurai's purpose of coming to London this time is to bring this medicine here?

Why? Was it just to provide it to her colleagues in the organization, or was there another plot?

Again, since Sakurai was able to leave Tokyo, it means that the situation in Tokyo has completely stabilized.

As far as he knew, Rum was one of the persons in charge of the Tokyo area.

The earthquake caused by the death of such an important code member was completely quelled so quickly?

Was Rum killed because his tentacles stretched too far and touched interests that he shouldn't have touched?

Koizumi had no idea of ​​the thoughts that were erupting like a volcano in Akai Shuichi's mind, and continued to talk to himself, "So, there's no need for any desperate plan, Mr. Moroboshi. Just come back and continue to be your undercover agent.

"I'll help you get a code name, and then I'll give you enough information to report to the FBI."

Akai Shuichi: "...What do you want me to do?"

Koizumi clapped his hands and laughed, "Wow, so smart. I love dealing with smart people. Don't worry, they are just simple little things."

simple?

Oh, why doesn't he believe it?

Koizumi understood his expression, waved his hands and smiled, "Oh, I promise these are really simple things. Didn't you just say you wanted to seek cooperation from me? How could you not trust me at all?"

Akai Shuichi:......

"Or rather..."

Koizumi narrowed his eyes with a smile, but his tone suddenly became deep: "Those nice words you just said were just teasing me?"

Akai Shuichi stared at her for a long while, then said expressionlessly: "...You want me to be your thug? For a private matter?"

Koizumi nodded unabashedly and admitted, "That's right."

Akai Shuichi glanced at Vermouth beside him.

Sakurai actually said such a thing in front of Sharon Wynyard.

Are they accomplices?

"I told you before you left Tokyo that the special talent recruitment fair was the best opportunity to join the organization in the short term. Now all the positions are full. Do you think it will be easy to arrange a suitable position for you?"

"...Didn't you say that you have the final say in Tokyo?"

"Except for gin."

Koizumi spread his hands and said, "If you don't want to follow my path, I will only be responsible for finding a new place for you, and then you can fumble around and figure out a way to get there."

Akai Shuichi: "We agreed to cooperate..."

Koizumi rolled his eyes and immediately interrupted him: "Where is the cooperation? I'm the one helping you. What have you done to me? I'm not a saint. I won't do anything that doesn't benefit me."

She glanced at Akai Shuichi's face and said jokingly, "But if you are willing to be the Holy Son, that's fine."
