Chapter 184
After thinking for a while, Usoppei suddenly remembered that, if you count the time, shouldn't the Pramia from the movie be in Japan now?
I vaguely remember that although he was French, he had been living in Japan since he was 20. That's why he was able to hook up with a Japanese policeman and start a relationship right after he got injured. Otherwise, it would have taken him a long time just to learn the language.
So, Usakabe Saiki searched for the Tokyo residence of the bomber codenamed "Prumia".
Soon, the "All-in-One Navigation" tool pointed him to several locations.
Bo Yezaki searched again with different keywords, eliminating several addresses.
There are five commonly used addresses left, which should be enough.
Usaku Saiki enjoyed the meal prepared by Hagiwara Kenji with great relish, and then spent a peaceful evening.
Kenji Hagiwara forced himself to stay with her for two days, but nothing happened. However, he felt that if this continued, Shinryu Hagiwara's patience would probably reach its limit, so he regretfully gave up his plan to stay by Shinryu Hagiwara's side every night.
The main issue is that I received a notification, but I don't know when they plan to make their move, or how they intend to do it, which is causing some anxiety...
No, only his colleagues were anxious. Kofumi Ryu had no sense of crisis at all. He was the most relaxed person in the First Investigation Division.
The bomber sent that challenge letter to mess with Xiao Shenliu's mentality, but now everyone except Xiao Shenliu has their mentality messed up... I wonder how the bomber would feel if he knew.
God knows, if Kenji Hagiwara had continued to stick to him like this, Saiki Usui would have bought a stand-in doll. Luckily, Kenji Hagiwara gave up halfway through.
So, upon regaining his freedom, Usakawa Saiki made a disguise mask that very night, based on the photo of the bomber who had tried to kill him.
He exchanged a bunch of skills for Han Chuan Shenliu, including Disguise—after all, he had come to the Conan world, and it would feel like he had come for nothing if he didn't know how to use Disguise!
This skill had never been used before, but it finally came in handy today! It wasn't a complete waste of the beginner points from the newbie gift pack!
Usakabe Saiki prepared the clothes and shoulder pads he needed to change into, stuffed them into his bag, and hurriedly left.
He disguised himself and ran to five different addresses in one night, then destroyed the disguises and rushed home, just in time for his usual bedtime.
The system, which witnessed the entire process, commented: 【You're so shameless…】
"This was self-defense!" Usakabe Saiki smugly pulled the covers over himself. "That guy's a procrastinator; he hasn't made a move yet. Since he gave me this opportunity, I'm going to make the most of it!"
While Usakabe Saiki was fast asleep, international bomber Pramia finally returned to one of his safe houses.
Pramie, whose real name is Christine Lisaire, is French and has a talent for bombs. She settled in Japan after the age of 20, but she still occasionally takes on commissions to blow up buildings or kill people abroad.
She was probably born to be a criminal. She felt no remorse for killing, and even if there was no commission, she would find a way to make that person disappear from the world if someone was in her way.
Because of her ruthless approach to eliminating witnesses and her meticulous and cautious nature, even though she committed countless serious crimes around the world, and even though the families of the victims formed an organization to hunt her down every day, Pramia's true identity remained unknown.
This made her very proud.
But today, her pride has been shattered.
When Pramia returned to the safe house, she opened the door and found an envelope in the entryway, which must have been slipped in through the crack in the door.
She initially guessed it was some kind of promotional advertisement, which is quite common, so she didn't pay much attention. She bent down to pick it up, intending to throw it in the trash can.
But the moment he turned the envelope over and looked at the side that was touching the ground, Pramia's pupils suddenly contracted!
The envelope was addressed to "Prumia"!
How could anyone know this was her safe house?! How did they even find out where she was?!
Is this trouble caused by failing to completely eliminate the problem at its root?
But every time she takes action, she wears a mask and doesn't say a word. Even if you see her at the scene, you'd probably just think she's a thinner man... How did they manage to investigate her and even find her safe house?!
That's terrifying.
While feeling fear, Pramia also harbored murderous intent towards the person who wrote the letter.
Everyone who knows her identity must die!
Pramia opened the envelope with a murderous aura and looked at its contents.
This is outrageous... This is actually a challenge letter.
The letter was incredibly arrogant and domineering, viciously belittling her, claiming her strength didn't match her reputation, and even saying things like, "If you're not a coward, challenge me to a duel if you're not convinced..." Even if Pramia hadn't intended to do anything, reading this letter would have made her want to kill her!
Although he was eager to start considering revenge immediately, the safe house had already been discovered, and it was not safe to stay there any longer. Pramia decisively left the safe house and drove to the next one.
But then something terrifying happened again: she found another envelope labeled "Prumia" in the safe house!
Upon opening it, the contents of the letter were exactly the same… What is this? This is intimidation! This is a demonstration!
That person was using this method to warn her, "I know where you're hiding, I know your identity, don't even think about running away!"
That night, Pramia searched through several of the safe houses she frequented and found a total of five letters.
Her emotions gradually shifted from shock and anger to killer-like ruthlessness.
Forget everything else, that person is dead. What she needs to do now is find out who the guy is who discovered her identity and still dared to write to her!
She returned to one of the safe houses.
There's no other reason than that she frequents this place, so she secretly installed a hidden surveillance camera at the entrance, thinking she might be able to capture something.
But it's only a possibility.
Pramia herself was a bad person, and she was very discreet when she did it, so I figured others would be just as careful.
So she checked the surveillance footage, originally just to see if there were any clues, even just the clothing and style.
Sure enough, the surveillance footage showed the person wearing a hat appearing at the entrance of her apartment—but only in profile, with most of his face obscured by the hat, providing very little information.
However, just as Pramia was feeling regretful, it seemed as if a gust of wind blew through the surveillance footage, blowing the hat off!
The apartment layout, with the entrance directly facing the corridor and no glass windows, allowed for ventilation as soon as the door was opened. This proved to be a great help, as it immediately revealed the person's face completely.
The man had a shifty look on his face. After his hat was blown away by the wind, he instinctively picked it up, looked around to make sure no one was there, and then put it back on before hurriedly leaving.
Ha! It seems destiny has truly smiled upon me!
I thought it would take a lot of time to investigate who it was, but I didn't expect that there would already be such great progress!
That guy was so quick to expose others' identities, but he probably didn't expect his own to be exposed so easily too!
The surveillance footage was a bit blurry, but that didn't matter. Pramia immediately began investigating who this person was, and even sought help from information brokers. They quickly identified a suspect.
The most likely candidate is a bomber who was recently released from prison. I don't know what he's up to, but he's recently started hiding his whereabouts as if he's afraid of being discovered. He might be doing something illegal. The only thing I can be sure of is that he's still in Tokyo.
However, everyone leaves traces in the world. If she wanted to know, the intelligence brokers were willing to help her continue the investigation—sometimes, their intelligence was much more sensitive than that of the police, after all, there were many methods and connections that the police could not access.
Without hesitation, Pramia chose to continue the investigation.
They haven't found out where he lives yet, but they have found out that he was in a bar a couple of days ago, seemingly drunk, yelling things like "Why don't you read the letter?" The information broker relayed this to Pramia.
Pramia gritted her teeth.
It was definitely him! She's been busy with her normal social life these past two days and hasn't been to the safe house, so she didn't find the letter, and he's unhappy about it... Heh, he can be even more unhappy!
But it's okay, she'll get rid of that guy soon!
Achoo!
The bomber, who had been inexplicably targeted by Pramia, couldn't help but sneeze.
After he sneezed, he quickly checked the bomb in front of him and was satisfied to find that it had no effect.
The bomb had already been made; he was just taking it out to admire it and, incidentally, to imagine the miserable state of Han Chuan Shen Liu.
After sending that fax to the Metropolitan Police Department, the letter at Shinryu Kanagawa's house must have been discovered.
The reason he didn't execute the plan immediately after making the bomb was that he wanted Hanchuan Shenliu to be worried for a while after receiving the letter.
His bomb is like the sword of Damocles, which could fall at any moment.
So his postponement resulted in Han Chuan Shenliu's anxiety, which was a win-win situation!
Moreover, a person's mental tension can only last so long. In two more days, Han Chuan Shenliu might think that the letter was just a bluff, and then he could carry out his perfect plan...
This is his revenge! Tremble, you cold, deep stream!

I owe you another bonus chapter for landmines, I'll add one tonight.
.
Does the letter Pramie received look familiar?
.
Thin Leaf: I want to learn disguise from Vermouth.
Han Chuan: He can do it himself.
Honestly, coming to the world of Detective Conan without learning how to disguise is a real waste! It's a specialty!
.
Bomber: My delay only caused Han Chuan Shenliu to live in constant fear! Psychological torment is the most intense!
Thin Leaf: Hahaha, so much time!
