In Conan, people have a brain option system.

Chapter 297 Assumptions (12)

Beika-cho, Kudo Shin's family.

Shuichi Akai, who was disguised as Subaru Okiya, a graduate student in engineering at Touto University, was sitting in the study on the second floor, typing away on his computer.

There was no light on in the dormitory, and the curtains on the windows were drawn.

So the light in the living room seemed very dim.

In this dark room, only the light from the computer screen illuminates the face of "Okiya Subaru".

*smack*
Shuichi Akai pressed the left button of the mouse, and the computer began to play the video.

The lenses of the glasses on his nose reflected part of the image on the computer screen, which was a live recording of a talk show about the Showa Jewelry Exhibition held in Jiangdu District five days ago.

The talk show was temporarily suspended due to the theft of the Moonlight Necklace by Kaito Kidd.

Therefore, this live video only contains the content of that morning.

*smack*
With another "click" sound, Akai Shuichi pressed the space bar to pause the video.

Then, Akai Shuichi enlarged the screen.

Then, Shuichi Akai picked up the black coffee on the table, put it to his lips and took a sip.

This time, a figure with chestnut hair could be vaguely seen on the screen reflected from the lenses of his squinting eyes.

——Akikawa Sosuke, an artist from Wonderful.

In this incident, Shuichi Akai is most concerned about not the criminal Tsukino Takashi, nor Kaito Kid.

Instead, it was the artist Akikawa Sosuke who seemed to have no presence from beginning to end.

The important reason is that Shuichi Akai discovered that Akikawa Sousuke seemed to be present in many cases that his younger sister Masumi Sera was involved in.

A day ago, Shuichi Akai received news from the CIA agent Rena Mizunashi (Hondou Eikai) who was lurking inside the organization.

Toru Amuro of the Public Security Department was punished by the organization for trying to hand over fake gems to the organization, which aroused Gin's suspicion.

Shuichi Akai actually knows Toru Amuro quite well.

He could imagine that in order to prevent the organization from getting the gems as they wished, Toru Amuro wanted to use fake gems to conceal the truth.

It was only a matter of time before the organization discovered this matter.

However, Toru Amuro was discovered almost on the same day he handed in the gems, which was very unusual.

Because in Shuichi Akai's memory, Toru Amuro has always been very cautious about matters related to the organization.

"He must have been discovered by the organization when he was confident of his success."

'That is, something happened that he did not expect.'

"Kaito Kidd, who was not supposed to get the gem, got it, which led to his exposure."

"Someone must have helped Kaito Kidd, so Kaito Kidd was able to get the gem."

After making these judgments, Shuichi Akai immediately began to investigate the video of the exhibition.

Then he saw a familiar figure in it.

That is Akikawa Sosuke.

Shuichi Akai is very concerned about the situation of his younger sister Masumi Sera.

Basically, he has a certain degree of understanding of all the larger cases that Masumi Sera has participated in. He noticed that Akikawa Sousuke was also involved in the last hot spring hotel case that Conan and Masumi Sera participated in.

'Once or twice it could be a coincidence, but if it happens so many times it's probably not a coincidence.'

Although in both cases, Akikawa Sosuke seemed to have no presence on the surface.

However, in the case that Akikawa Sosuke was involved in, many strange things happened and were not figured out in the end.

As an FBI agent and undercover agent, Shuichi Akai keenly noticed that something was wrong.

"Come to think of it, the kid said that Masumi had always been suspicious of Akikawa Sousuke."

'Even though these cases seem to have nothing to do with Akikawa Sosuke, he can always be found at the scene of each crime.'

"Could it be that he is the one who helped Kaito Kidd and ruined Furuya's plan?"

Akai Shuichi guessed in his heart.

He once asked Conan why Toru Amuro came to the exhibition?
The reason Conan gave was that Toru Amuro might be investigating Akikawa Sosuke.

This means that Akikawa Sosuke must have done something else somewhere else that made Amuro Toru suspicious.

"Akikawa is involved in every case, and Masumi and Furuya are both suspicious of him."

As for why Toru Amuro suspected Akikawa Sosuke?
Although Conan didn't know the reason, Shuichi Akai knew it.

Because Shuichi Akai had also received another piece of information from Rena Mizunashi.

That is, Vermouth killed a public security policeman on the way back from Hakone after being seriously injured.

Just like when Toru Amuro believed that Shuichi Akai killed his childhood friend and classmate in the police academy, Keimitsu Morobushi, he always had a strong resistance to Shuichi Akai and did not hesitate to use the power of the organization and the public security to find Shuichi Akai many times.

The incidents that often prompt Toru Amuro, a public security policeman with a secret identity, to take personal action are either those involving national security or those involving important people around Toru Amuro.

As for the fact that Amuro came to investigate Akikawa Sousuke's situation, it is most likely the latter.

'Since the public security policeman will be discovered and killed by Vermouth while following Vermouth.'

"This means that the public security police officer has somehow learned of Vermouth's itinerary."

"If it was Akikawa Sosuke who made the public security police follow Vermouth, then everything would make sense."

"Since Furuya had information from both the organization and the public security, he was able to know that it was Akikawa Sousuke who did it, and therefore he began to suspect Akikawa Sousuke."

'And Akikawa Sosuke is the mysterious man who saved Masumi and hurt Vermouth.'

'Only in this way can he have the opportunity to provide the public security police with the location of Vermouth.'

Although this is just one of countless possibilities,
But it is undeniable that if we consider that Akikawa Sosuke was the one who indirectly killed the public security policeman,

All the doubts in the Hakone case can be explained at once.

"Recently, the kid hasn't mentioned that Masumi suspected Akikawa Sousuke."

"Perhaps just like the kid, Masumi completely denied the suspicion of Akikawa Sousuke."

'Or maybe Masumi has already discovered that it was Akikawa Sousuke who saved him.'

Shuichi Akai picked up the coffee cup on the table again, drank the black coffee in the cup, and put the cup back on the table.

"It seems that it is necessary to confirm the situation of Akikawa Sousuke."
