Kim here is going to be doing some detective work as well, hoping to leverage some of the connections he has already made! I'm not sure if he'll find anything that others haven't already, but checking in anyhow. His tactics will largely be covered by good old fashioned detective work and asking around, focusing on people who are lower in the pecking order, and trying to hop from insubstantial lead to insubstantial lead. Some contacts/methods he'll be focused on are:

- Leveraging the fact that he assisted in providing yokai with goods during the blood rain, reasoning that one good turn deserves another
- Contacting some of the delinquents he saved from Officer Andy's wrath and point out that if they don't share intel with him, he would be more than happy to hand them over to her (sorry, Andy)
- General blackmail -- if he notices they've been cooking the books or are a cover for something else, he's fine with saying that he won't turn them over if they provide him with intel
- Eavesdropping using the fact that he's very inconspicuous looking, both at shady bars and using his status as a working-class employee at the konbini, i.e. loitering by places of interest in-uniform underneath the guise of being told by his employer to off-load their abundance of trash to other businesses
- Keeping an eye out for money laundering in businesses; he'll be keeping an eye on if the success of their businesses adds up to the owners' personal affluence, if they keep odd hours, if they have clandestine meetings with persons of interest, etc. etc. He's generally good at keeping watch for hours, if not days, at a time to hunt down the next thread

tl;dr he's just a detail-oriented, old-school detective sniffing about!
