He seems to resent her for abandoning him and just wanted to tell her to not try connect with him now he is famous. From the postcards, they can see, that they are send from all around Japan, that they were send once a month for two years until winter and they are written on the same kind of postcard. Conan deduces that Kazuki's mother is staying at an inn in Atami and had guests there send her postcards from their hometown to make herself impossible to find. So Atsuko is likely a staff member at that inn.
