Refuse to allow Conan to join the main storyline

Although the Tobacco Man said he wanted to talk to her alone, Shinji Hagiya had obviously heard something from his old friend and followed him out of concern.

Moreover, these two people were obviously well aware of the identities of Furuya Rei, Morobushi Kagemitsu and Matsuda Jinpei, so they did not raise any objections to their presence.

Zhu Fu Jingguang placed the coffee in front of the two bosses, got a glass of iced cola for Koizumi, and then sat quietly aside.

The tobacco man didn't intend to waste time, and said straight to the point: "Sakurai, I came here this time because I hope you can consider returning to the public security system. No matter what, you are a graduate of the Tokyo Police Academy after all, and you are indeed an undercover agent sent by the public security to the organization.

"After filing, the Public Security Bureau will directly grant you the position of police captain. In addition, if you are very concerned about your status as a police academy dropout, we can also approve the reissue of your police academy diploma and directly grant you the honor of an outstanding police academy graduate, and announce it to the public through the media.

"I wonder what you think?"

Koizumi did not speak immediately, but just supported his head and looked at the man opposite him, his eyes thoughtful.

After entering the cat cafe, Shinji Hagiya's expression has been a little solemn. Seeing Koizumi's reaction, he couldn't keep his composure.

However, just as he was about to speak, he was held down by the tobacco man.

So Shinji Hagiya could only frown and swallow back the words he was about to say.

Koizumi watched the interaction between the two people opposite him, then he slowly sat up straight and said, "Excuse me, Mr. Kujo, why did the police do this?"

The Tobacco Man was not at all surprised that Koizumi knew his name.

In other words, if this somewhat omnipotent Miss Sakurai had not investigated his identity, he would have been very surprised.

The tobacco man nodded slightly. "I can tell you frankly that it is because of the reagent sample you provided to the public security that the National Public Security Committee has a big disagreement on this thing, and there may be a huge change in the way it treats the organization. The public security did this to better protect your personal safety."

Koizumi raised the corner of his mouth, said "Oh" meaningfully, and said no more.

The tobacco man frowned slightly. "Sakurai, the Santa Felina Club is too high-profile and has attracted too much unnecessary attention. The matter of the sample... the public security department originally wanted to keep it confidential, but the information was accidentally leaked, causing the situation to develop beyond expectations. We are worried that some people can't help but take action against you."

"So, of the five vials of reagents, the police didn't keep any?"

Koizumi didn't turn around to look at the expressions of the three people from the police academy.

But you don't need to look to know that Fūya Rei's expression must be quite interesting.

The tobacco man was silent for a moment, and finally said in a deep voice: "Yes."

Koizumi smiled and put down the straw he was playing with: "I refuse."

"Sakurai!" Shinji Hagiya finally couldn't help it. "You know very well what the current situation in Tokyo is, right? If the public security, the organization and the Americans can maintain a balance, your safety can indeed be guaranteed. But now the balance has been broken, and you will be swept into the storm. Your current situation is very dangerous! If you don't quickly lean against a big tree..."

"Okay, Boss Hagiya, you don't have to say anything. I refuse."

Koizumi looked at him jokingly: "I am a little surprised that you, a gangster boss, would lobby me for the public security people."

Shinji Hagiya slammed the table and stood up: "This is not lobbying! I am worried about your safety!"

"Oh, but isn't the result the same?"

Koizumi glanced at the tobacco man and said, "Did he give you any benefit? More than what I gave you?"

Shinji Hagiya's face turned red, and he slammed the table and said angrily: "Listen to what you are saying! Are you questioning me, you bastard?"

"Yeah, I'm questioning you."

Koizumi said calmly, "The organization still has some humanity, but the police are all ungrateful. Don't trust anyone. Isn't this what you have been teaching me?"

Shinji Hagiya took a breath and choked.

Koizumi smiled calmly: "I was not like this originally. I can only say that your education was very successful. Why, are you unhappy?"

Tobacco Man: ...

The three people who listened in silence: …

"I created this storm myself. How could I not know how dangerous it is?"

Koizumi gave the tobacco man a mocking smile: "Besides, is the public security tree safe?"

"Heh, to protect my personal safety... Can I sue you for fraud, Mr. Kujo?

"Well, forget it. No one will accept the case even if I sue. After all, the right of interpretation is in your hands.

"But if I understand correctly, what you mean by protecting me is actually the police's hope to control the ownership of that technology by controlling me. Right?"

Koizumi tapped the table with his fingers and tilted his head towards the tobacco man with a smile: "So, Mr. Kujo, tell me the truth, who are you representing to negotiate with me today when you came here so impatiently?

"You are obviously a big shot on the Red Side, but you actually brought in a gang leader to help lobby me. It seems like you are under a lot of pressure.

"Since he can make you feel pressured, then the identity of this person... could he be from the cabinet, or the royal family?

"Oh, okay, don't make that expression. I won't delve into it. They are people I can't afford to offend anyway. Even if they know, what can I do about it?"

Koizumi spread his hands and smiled: "Anyway, unfortunately, you used the wrong method. Boss Hagiya is not my weakness, and intimidation doesn't work on me.

"Oh, or rather, looking at the whole of Tokyo, there's really no one I particularly care about. So, there's no need to consider threatening me with other hostages. I really have to thank you for this. Thank you."

After hearing what she said, Shinji Hagiya was stunned for a moment, then suddenly his eyes widened as if he realized something, and he turned to look at his good friend beside him.

The tobacco man stared at Koizumi in silence for a moment, then gradually relaxed his body and smiled: "You are really amazing, Sakurai. You really deserve to be the one who got a code name in the organization and gained control of Tokyo."

As he spoke, he took out a tape recorder that was still running from his pocket and placed it on the table.

"It would be a huge waste of resources if people like you cannot be recruited by the police. Is there really no room for reversal on this point?"

"It's a pity, but I have never been a member of the public security department from the beginning."

Koizumi rolled his eyes and said quickly, "Besides, I'm not from any organization. I'm just a citizen with some skills. I don't understand what you just said.

"Also, what do you mean by samples I provided to the police? You stole them. No, you robbed them! Give them back to me now, bastard! My partners are going to fall out with me because of this, and I can’t do business anymore! Is this how you, the police, protect the citizens of Tokyo? Be careful or I’ll have your lawyer sue you!

"I've already offended the Metropolitan Police Department and the Police Academy, so I don't mind offending you, the Public Security Bureau, any more.

"If you insist on making trouble for me, I can't stay in Tokyo anymore, so I'll just move to the United States. Emanuel's invitation to me is still valid.

"I just don't believe it. In such a big world, there is still a place for me!"

Tobacco Man: ...

Shinji Hagiya: …

The three people who listened in silence: …

"Okay, I get it. That's it then."

After a long silence, the Tobacco Man pressed the stop button in front of everyone and ended the recording: "Alright. At least this way I can get my job done."

However, when he finished speaking, Koizumi on the opposite side suddenly laughed and took out a portable recorder from his pocket which was still running.

"Oh, is that okay? You've got me in trouble, Mr. Kujo."
