Chapter 195: Tracking

Kazami Yuya.

A criminal police officer of the Public Security Bureau of the Metropolitan Police Department, with the rank of inspector general.

He reports directly to his superior, Rei Furuya, and is also one of the few people in the Metropolitan Police Department who knows Rei Furuya's true identity.

More than half a month ago, following Furuya Rei's orders, Kazami Yuya installed eavesdropping and positioning software on the mobile phone of artist Akikawa Kyousuke.

Later, on the day after Akikawa Kyousuke was discharged from the hospital, he followed Akikawa to the government hall and shopping mall in Shibuya.

Later, he stopped following Akikawa Kyousuke osuke because he was warned by his boss Furuya Rei.

He would still eavesdrop occasionally, but he had never done any tracking again.

Half a month later, it was the day that Akikawa Kyousuke suke left Tokyo for Hakone.

Yuya Kazami noticed that Akikawa Kyousuke's position had changed.

Through investigation, he learned that Akikawa Kyousuke had taken a performance job at a hot spring hotel in Hakone.

On the third day after Akikawa Kyousuke arrived at the hot spring hotel, a murder occurred inside the hotel.

This made Yuya Kazami instantly alert.

Then, after eavesdropping on the cell phone, he learned that this case had nothing to do with Akikawa Kyousuke, so he felt relieved.

However.

The day after the poisoning murder, which was yesterday.

A murder has once again occurred at the hot spring hotel called Kozenan.

This time it was an even more brutal case of dismemberment.

At that time, Kazami Yuya was even a little crazy when he heard that Akikawa was unable to make any inferences after being reminded by Conan several times.

Fortunately, after learning that detective Masumi Sera also appeared in Kosenan, Yuya Kazami felt relieved.

Everyone recognizes Masumi Sera's ability to solve cases.

Sure enough, the culprit in the dismemberment case was soon identified.

That is Kunio Koizumi, the owner of Kosenan.

Just when Yuya Kazami thought the case was over.

However, he heard that the real murderer was someone else.

Since he could only eavesdrop through Akikawa Kyousuke's cell phone,

and although Akikawa Kyousuke was the first witness at the crime scene, he had no reasoning ability.

So Akikawa did not stay with Masumi Sera and Conan all the time.

There was no way for Yuya Kazami to continue to learn about the progress of the case.

It was several hours after the incident that he again overheard useful information.

At that time, the detectives' reasoning reached a dead end.

Akikawa, who "happened" to arrive at the door of Kunio Koizumi's room, suddenly awakened the two detectives with a casual remark, "This is a holy place for programmers."

A moment later, Kazami Yuya heard the incredible news through Akikawa Kyousuke's phone -

Kunio Koizumi wants to take the blame for the real murderer because his family has been threatened.

And the organization of the real murderer who threatened him even dared to kill the police.

Yuya Kazami immediately linked this incident to the recent incident in which Inspector Kyouji Toda of the Third Investigation Division of the Metropolitan Police Department was sniped and killed in his car.

This incident seriously threatens the safety of Japanese citizens, so it also falls within the scope of public security investigation.

Just when Yuya Kazami wanted to continue listening.

As luck would have it, the artist Akikawa Kyousuke was frightened by Kunio Koizumi's remarks and left Kunio Koizumi's room.

This immediately made Yuya Kazami feel as if he was standing still and wanted to jump up and down.

He kept complaining in his mind that Akikawa Kyousuke was a coward and how he failed at the critical moment.

At the same time, he also began to question the task assigned to him by his boss, Furaya Rei, to monitor Akikawa Kyousuke.

What was the point of monitoring such a stupid and timid artist?

Yuya Kazami no longer expected Akikawa Kyousuke to provide him with any useful information.

At the same time, he also realized that the truth behind this dismemberment case was extraordinary.

It was a pity that his boss, Rei Furuya, was not in the Ministry of Public Security at that time.

So there is no way to get in touch.

Yuya Kazami knows that his boss sometimes has to go undercover as a member of an international criminal organization called "Bourbon".

So it is normal that you cannot get in touch.

Yuya Kazami hurriedly drove to Hakone.

He was not driving the Metropolitan Police Department's car.

Because the cars of the Metropolitan Police Department either have the conspicuous "Metropolitan Police Department" logo on them, or they are all Toyota Crowns.

Therefore, anyone who drives in Japan will become extremely cautious when seeing a Toyota Crown on the road.

After all, that was most likely a vehicle used by the Metropolitan Police Department as a disguise.

Of course, for such a dangerous operation, it was impossible for Yuya Kazami to drive his own car.

Instead, he cautiously rented a Honda Civic which was not very high-profile but had relatively outstanding performance.

It's just a pity that there are so many tourists going to Hakone during the spring break.

In addition, it took Yuya Kazami quite a long time to prepare, which ultimately led to him setting off too late.

As expected, we also experienced a huge traffic jam.

He had no choice but to monitor while driving.

And during the subsequent monitoring, he obtained some new information.

That is, Akikawa Kyousuke and his mother were once hunted by someone.

It's a pity that when faced with the questions from detective Sera Masumi, Akikawa Kyousuke still seemed to be clueless.

"My mother took me on the run for so many years, but I don't even know who is hunting her or why..."

Yuya Kazami complained in his heart with a headache.

The distance from Tokyo to Hakone is only a hundred kilometers, but it took Yuya Kazami nearly half a day to drive there.

Ever since Akikawa Kyousuke finished his conversation with Sera Masumi, Kazami Yuya has not received any useful information from Akikawa Kyousuke's mobile phone.

By the time Yuya Kazami arrived in Hakone, it was already night.

He first entered Kosenan Temple and observed for a while.

After making sure that Kosenan was safe, he wanted to book a room to rest.

Unfortunately, he got the reply that the hotel was fully booked.

After asking several hot spring hotels and finding that they were all full, Yuya Kazami had no choice but to stay in a hotel some distance away from Kosenan.

As a criminal policeman in the public security department, he has long been accustomed to this boring and long-term monitoring work.

However, nothing seemed to happen tonight, so Yuya Kazami planned to go find Masumi Sera the next day to find out what happened.

Yuya Kazami fell asleep peacefully with his monitoring headphones on.

However.

After two o'clock in the morning.

A voice suddenly came from the earphones, "You bastard! I'm going to kill you!", which woke up Yuya Kazami who had fallen asleep.

Then he heard the sound of fighting again in his headphones.

Yuya Kazami suddenly realized that something was wrong, so he quickly jumped out of bed, left the hotel, and drove towards Kosenan.

From the earphones came the sound of something breaking on the wall.

Then came the voices of a woman and that of an elementary school student who looked like a child but had a mind that was no less intelligent than any detective.

Yuya Kazami didn't know why he was able to monitor these contents from Akikawa Kyousuke's mobile phone.

But he knew that the situation was very bad.

However, before Yuya Kazami arrived at Kosenan, the location of Akikawa Kyousuke's phone began to move rapidly.

He realized that Akikawa Kyousuke's cell phone might have been snatched away by the woman who had just talked to Conan.

So he followed the woman from a distance based on the positioning of Akikawa Kyousuke's mobile phone app.
