Chapter 178 The Genius Doctor Who Outwits the Air
Sunday was a sunny and breezy day, a perfect day to see a doctor. Akutagawa Hiko leisurely arrived at Beika Yakushino Hospital, which was much smaller than Beika Hospital.
Akutagawa Hiko walked into the consultation room with a relaxed demeanor and met Kazato Kyosuke, a psychologist whom Conan described as vengeful and malicious.
If his killing of the colleague who rendered him, a promising surgeon, incapable of performing surgeries is somewhat understandable, even if the method was somewhat cruel, it still falls within the scope of normal revenge.
Therefore, his subsequent attacks on others were entirely due to his own inhumanity.
Kyosuke Kazato is a master of disguise, making it impossible for anyone to tell that he had committed a murder and escaped unscathed for a short time. He is just like a truly kind and gentle psychiatrist.
This is so much better than Conan's previous acting skills.
Kyosuke Kazato is a renowned doctor. Whether it was his reputation as a surgical genius seven years ago before his wrist was cut, or his subsequent career as a psychiatrist, his name is widely known.
These days, countless people want to make an appointment with him, and it usually takes at least a month to get a chance to see this renowned and busy doctor.
Kyosuke Kazato first posed a few questions, which Akutagawa answered honestly. He then maintained a gentle expression and chatted with Akutagawa, who seemed very friendly at first glance.
Initially, Kyosuke Kazato was somewhat nervous when he learned that he was about to provide psychological counseling to a famous detective.
Because he knew that if the incident a year ago hadn't been an accident, it wouldn't have ended so early as a suicide, and his suspicions hadn't been completely cleared.
Now, while providing psychological counseling to one of his police officer patients, he learned that the police were about to reopen the investigation into the suicide case of Nino Yasushi from a year ago, and that's how this famous detective came knocking on his door.
It's hard not to overthink this.
He initially wanted to refuse or try to postpone his meeting with the famous detective, but the director and even the dean said that this was a difficult matter to handle.
Now he was even more vigilant.
He wasn't in the nature of sitting idly by and waiting for death; he preferred to take the initiative and control everything himself.
Moreover, so what if he's a famous detective? He's a genius with seven years of experience as a psychologist. He's confident that if the person is on guard, not only will he not be able to extract any key information, but he'll also expose his true colors.
Kyosuke Kazato is worried that his murder a year ago will be exposed, so he plans to strike first by killing the policeman who leaked the information, and then killing the entire investigation team to cover it up.
As for how to exonerate himself afterward, he had already figured it out.
As mentioned earlier, he is a renowned doctor, so it is quite reasonable that he has a very rich network of contacts, especially since he is also a psychologist who can see into other people's minds.
He learned by chance that two sizable criminal organizations in Tokyo had clashed, and the conflict had escalated to the point of a violent clash, resulting in numerous deaths.
As long as he frames those two organizations and makes them believe that they are framing each other, he can sit back and watch them fight like dogs.
As for this detective whose purpose is currently unknown, if he dares to continue meddling and even learns something, he wouldn't mind including him on the kill list.
Akutagawa Hiko sensed a malice emanating from the psychiatrist in front of him. After some careful consideration, he had some guesses, but he was unclear about the reason why the doctor had suddenly focused on him.
To be honest, this doctor is a genius, and geniuses always think differently from ordinary people.
Moreover, this psychologist clearly fits the saying "a doctor cannot heal himself," as his psychological problems were actually quite serious, and they became even more severe after he personally took revenge by killing Nino Yasushi.
Such a person, just because he entered the examination room with his left foot first, could become a target of dislike. There are too many possibilities to rule them all out at once.
In his mind, Akutagawa silently sentenced this impolite doctor to death. He already didn't have a good impression of him because of his behavior, and now he was actively releasing his malice.
We must strike hard.
As they chatted, this renowned cardiologist, with his keen intuition, felt a chill run down his spine. He glanced at the thermometer on the wall but found nothing wrong.
Then Kazato Kyosuke looked at the smiling Akutagawa Hiko. Judging from their brief conversation and the questionnaire he had prepared beforehand, the famous detective in front of him did indeed have some psychological issues.
Logically speaking, mental patients who can actively seek treatment are not too dangerous; the truly dangerous ones are those who believe they have no problems.
Kyosuke Kazato recalled instances of violence against medical staff and patients assaulting others. Although his experience as a surgeon made him unafraid of bloody scenes, he did not want to be the one lying on the ground.
As a murderer who escaped punishment, he would inevitably carry certain items with him, such as stun guns, pepper spray, tranquilizer guns, batons, and the like.
He even had someone get him a handgun, which was lying quietly in his bag.
Kyosuke Kazato pushed off with his foot, taking a slight step back to ensure he could draw his weapon immediately before resuming his conversation with the famous detective.
Faced with the psychologist's cryptic and suggestive words, Akutagawa Hiko would only occasionally give a perfunctory reply, his mind already wandering off somewhere else.
Seeing this, Kyosuke Kazato silently lowered the probability that the famous detective was sent by the police to investigate.
That makes sense. If they really suspected him, why would they send a police officer with psychological trauma, who is very easy to manipulate, to him for treatment? Unless there's a corrupt cop in the higher-ups who pretends not to know and is prepared to use that police officer as a disposable tool, it doesn't make sense.
It's common for patients to be uncooperative with treatment, which is when a doctor's skills are truly tested.
However, Kyosuke Kazato knew he had met a tough opponent today. The person in front of him was not an ordinary patient who had wrapped himself in thorns. He completely ignored the psychiatrist's various questions, making his efforts seem a bit foolish.
Kyosuke Kazato hinted more than once that he should temporarily suspend today's treatment, as his time was very precious and should not be wasted on this stubborn patient.
Finally, after the consultation time was over, Kyosuke Kazato reluctantly signed up for a medical examination, ending this agonizing treatment.
Akutagawa Hiko wasn't going to go for the medical check-up obediently. He was a little hungry, and Sonoko had invited him out, so he could freeload a meal.
