Tailing

Tailing (, Bikō) is a mechanic in Judgment and Lost Judgment.
==Overview==
Takayuki Yagami (or Masaharu Kaito) must follow a target while remaining out of their sight to avoid arousing suspicion by keeping distance and making minimal noise. The target must be kept in line of sight, and if they are lost, a timer will start which dicates how much time Yagami has left to get the target back in his field of view before mission failure.
The target will turn back to face Yagami every once in a while, and if they spot him, they will briefly look at where they saw him before resuming their path, provided Yagami has moved out of sight. If he stays in the taget's sight too long, the caution gaze will rise. If the caution gauge fills, the mission ends and Yagami must restart. 
In Judgment, the caution gauge will gradually empty, but in Lost Judgment, the caution gauge will stay at the level it was before Yagami moved out of sight. Additionally, in Lost Judgment, Yagami can "Act Casual" if caught to throw off the target's suspicion, but there is a non-replenishing gauge that decides how long he can Act Casual for.
