“She’s with the police who found her now,” Mingmei added.

It's the truth, but it's obviously very different from what Kindaichi imagined.

After all, most people wouldn't think that this "police officer" refers to the secret police unit "Zero".

"Time's almost up!" Miyuki glanced at her watch and reminded her.

At the same time, the wireless earpieces they were wearing also carried the sounds of the criminal police officers notifying each other to take their positions.

Meanwhile, Kondo Isami, who was outside the ticket gate and was designated by the kidnappers to carry the ransom and a mobile phone for communication, held up the phone screen in front of him, seemingly reading the instructions on it to someone else.

A minute later, all six of them turned around and walked towards the street outside.

Because of their serious expressions and the fact that they were all wearing Shinsengumi uniforms, they actually exuded the aura of swordsmen.

"Miyuki, let's go too!" Kindaichi declared, extending a hand to his childhood friend.

Remembering that they had talked about "pretending to be a couple," Miyuki blushed and placed her hand in the boy's.

The two of them held hands and followed slowly and somewhat stiffly behind the group of six, about 50 meters away.

"Hey, Toyama, can you hear me?" Akechi's voice came through the earpiece, slightly distorted, but you could still hear the laughter in it.

Aren't you coming with us?

"Isn't it bad to have too many people following them?" Yoruichi Toyama chuckled. "Besides, I bet they'll come back."

"If it's just about delivering the ransom, six people are obviously too many."

"Besides trying to cover up the crime and hide the victims in the group, I think there was another purpose."

"At a certain time, these six people will split up and shake off their pursuers."

"If it's just on foot, an ordinary person definitely can't outrun a policeman, right?"

"They will definitely need to use transportation."

"So I think all the subsequent actions will have to be carried out on this Keio Line."
