January 10, evening, rice flower town.

Looking at the two guys diagonally behind, walking back with a smile and a smile, Yamazaki secretly paid attention to the interesting content.

On the night after the rain, the bright moonlight sprinkled down, walking in this quiet alley, Lan thought about today's date, thinking about their past, and wanted to find someone to talk to for a while, and there happened to be a good listener by his side.

"That's right, Conan. Ran called Conan's name. "Ah, what's the matter?" Conan was clearly not used to his name. "Do you have a favorite person, I mean, do you have a favorite girl at school?" Lan asked Conan.

Yamazaki wanted to laugh when he heard this, how can you ask such a question to a child.

"No, how could there be. Conan's answer was a bit unusual, and it was pretty much the same for a new one.

"I have oh, very, very favorite people. "Lan, this is a self-questioning question. "Isn't it the new brother you were looking for?" Conan quipped. "That's right!" Looking at Conan's smile, Lan generously admitted. Conan was surprised, he had never thought that he would hear such an answer in this situation, nor did he think that Lan had such a side. In Conan's surprised expression, Ran recalled as he walked, "He was naughty since he was a child, always full of confidence, and still a reasoning freak, but he was reliable, courageous, and so cool when it mattered, and I really liked Shinichi." "This can be regarded as a confession, Yamazaki not far away looked through the moonlight. Conan's face became redder and redder, he had never thought that he was like this in Lan's heart. Yamazaki listened to Ran tell Conan again, "Don't tell Shinichi about this" Yamazaki felt that his face was also a little red, and he couldn't laugh out loud, it was still quite painful. ……

5-chome, Ran pointed to Mei Dai Restaurant, "This is that brother's house just now," and then pointed to the Maori detective agency next to him, "My house is here." Then he smiled at Conan, "It seems that there is a cute brother, and I feel that I can say anything to Conan." ”

"I'll introduce you to my father," Ran said to Conan as he walked to the hallway, "Come up." He walked up.

"That, that, Lan," listened to Lan all the way, at this time Conan didn't know how to speak, he didn't want to lie to Lan, "it, actually, I ......" However, the voice was too small, and Lan only said "um" to indicate that he was listening.

Yamazaki watched at the entrance of his own building, and when he saw this, he walked out, wanting to shut up Conan, this guy obviously didn't know enough about his current situation, and it seemed that he would have to talk to him in the future.

"I'm actually ......" Conan mustered up his courage and raised his voice, and just as Yamazaki was about to interject to interrupt, a figure shouted "Coming! coming!" and rushed down the stairs in a baserun fashion.

"Daddy!" the sharp-eyed Maolilan pulled Conan away, and the two got out of the way.

Maori Kogoro, who landed lying down, solved the confusion for everyone, "In the past six months, there has finally been a job at the door, and a rich man's daughter has been kidnapped, a man in black." ”

Yamazaki was surprised, how could this kind of thing find Maori Kogoro's head, and the man in black attracted Conan's attention, and there was a shadow in his heart, so he didn't say anything at this time, and watched Maori Kogoro take a taxi and sat on.

In the taxi, it's finally open, and this day is finally saved, and Mori Kogoro, who doesn't even have a beer to drink, is proud, "The incident is calling me, calling me Detective Mori Kogoro, ha, uh......"

Mori Kogoro finally noticed two people sitting side by side with him, one was a child, and the other was his daughter Mori Ran. "Why are you in the car?" shouted Kogoro Maori. "Because of this kid, he ran up. Maolilan called back with a straight face. "Cars, cars. "Conan is mixed. "Who is this guy?" shouted Kogoro Maori at Conan. Lan asked Conan to hold her lap and explain to Mori Kogoro, "The child of Dr. Agasa's relatives. Conan pointed to the front and said, "Brother Yamazaki is not here too." "Ah!" Mori Kogoro looked closely. "Good evening, Uncle Maori. Yamazaki said hello. "Who is he?" Maori asked Ran, "new boyfriend?" "What boyfriend," Ran was angry, "He's Cape Yamazaki and we had a late night snack with us last night." "Oh," Mori asked, still a little impressed, "what are you doing here?" "I came to see you in a hurry, thinking there was something wrong, and I wanted to help," Yamazaki explained to Mori, looking at Conan, who was squinting at him, "Later, I heard that something had happened, and I wanted to see how the detectives worked, so I wanted to go together." ”

After listening to the trio's words, Maori still refused to let them stay, "Don't get in the way of my work, get me off immediately." "How is it possible, this is on the highway." Lan retorted with a shout. "Uh......" Detective Kogoro Mori has nothing to say.

………………………………

Valley House.

"The kidnapped is my only daughter, Gu Jingzi, who is 10 years old this year," Mr. Gu showed a photo of Gu Jingzi, "and the prisoner was seen by the housekeeper Aso." ”

Conan jumped for a long time and didn't see the photo of Mori Kogoro holding it in his hand, Mori just put down his hand and grabbed it, looked at it and asked, "How was the situation when you were kidnapped?"

"Who is this kid?" Mr. Gu was very strange, how could an adult talk and a child could interject.

"It's nothing, he's my friend's child," Maori hurriedly explained, then picked up Conan and handed it to Ran, and said solemnly, "Give me a good look at him." Then he asked the housekeeper Aso about the situation.

"At that time, the young lady came back from school and was playing in the yard when suddenly a man dressed in black jumped out of the corner. Aso said to the man in black, "Tell your master that if you want your daughter back, you will close the company for a month." Of course, if the police were called, his daughter would have died. Then he continued, "After saying this, the prisoner climbed the pine tree and fled. ”

Listening to his narration, Yamazaki looked carefully at the pine tree not far away, and Yamazaki thought that if he held the child in one hand and climbed the tree with the other, there should be traces on the tree, at least he couldn't do it without leaving traces, no matter what he did, there would always be traces on the bark. From this, it can be concluded that Aso's housekeeper is lying, but what is the reason?

"What about the man's features?" Conan asked with concern. "I have bad eyes and can't see clearly. Aso's housekeeper also answered the children's questions carefully. However, not everyone can do this, so Conan's head was planted with mushrooms, large and red mushrooms. "No, Conan, don't get in the way of my dad's work. Apparently Lan's elbow was still turned inward.

Looking at this scene, Yamazaki was very puzzled, he was really involved in the kidnapping of his own young lady with the mouthy Conan and the pleasant face of Aso, and the Aso housekeeper didn't seem to have just entered the Gu family, Miss Gu Jingzi should have grown up watching him.

"So did anyone else hear the prisoner's voice?" sent Conan away, and Maori continued to understand the situation, "or some other strange voice." The maid confirmed that he only heard the voice of Aso's housekeeper shouting "Miss has been arrested", and nothing else.

"Is Aso the only one who sees the prisoner?" Mori summed up the current situation, "Judging from the other party's request, the prisoner should be someone who is hostile to the president's company." ”

"Damn, they ask for money in addition to this request. Mr. Gu said angrily. "Money?" Aso's housekeeper was shocked. "That's what you asked me to prepare 300 million yuan in old banknotes. Mr. Gu shouted. "Could it be that you're mistaken?" asked Aso's housekeeper. "Stop talking nonsense, shut up for me," the housekeeper doubted him, and Mr. Gu shouted angrily.

Looking at the panicked appearance of Butler Aso, it was obvious that there was an accident, so it is said that Miss Gu Jingzi was first kidnapped by the man in black in the mouth of Butler Aso, and then kidnapped by another person. What is Aso's butler worried about, accomplice, miss, or himself? Yamazaki thought of this, and looked at the two detectives, now it's up to you to perform.

"If your company goes out of business, what will the companies gain?" said the Maori detective was an enemy from the outside.

Seeing Conan thinking, Yamazaki asked, "What comes to mind?"

Conan said, "Why did the prisoner come to the house to kidnap her, isn't it better to do it on the way to and from school?" Yamazaki smiled, "For some daughters, it's normal to take a car. Conan said, "Then how can it be seen by others, it's too careless." Yamazaki retorted: "This kind of thing is also normal, and the weather forecast is not always accurate." ”

Conan unconsciously picked up the handball slapped by a girl in the yard, and asked while kicking: "But the prisoner only needs old banknotes, isn't this very careful?" Yamazaki had not yet spoken, and Ran, who was not far away, saw Conan's movements and came over to praise: "Conan, you played football well." "It's alright. Conan replied subconsciously. Shinichi also often thinks about things while playing, and he says that when he plays, his mind is very clear. Yamazaki shook his head lightly at Conan, and Conan reacted, so he had to make a mistake and end the dribble.

Seeing the ball roll into the bushes under the trees, Conan went to pick it up, and suddenly, a large dog roared wildly and rushed out of the kennel in the bushes towards Conan.

A few people who were still far away were trying to rush over to rescue, and at the moment when Yamazaki was about to make a move, Conan actually got along with the dog with the ball in his hand, this ability is innate, Yamazaki put away the coins in his hand.

"It's really strange," said Mr. Gu in astonishment, "that Big Mac doesn't get close to anyone except the people in the family." ”

"Uncle Maori, this means that the kidnappers used this pine tree to sneak in and escape, and the dog should be able to bark, right, so ......" Looking at Conan with a clear face, Yamazaki decided to remind Maori for the future.

"Where are you going, butler Aso. Remembering the servant's words just now, Maori looked at Aso who wanted to leave and asked, "What you just said always makes people feel strange, the prisoner who sneaked into the yard kidnapped the young lady, and then used the pine tree to escape, why didn't the dog bark?" Seeing that Aso was speechless, he continued to ask, "There are too many ambiguities in your testimony, in fact, there is no man in black at all, Aso butler, no, you should be called a kidnapper." ”

Well, the man in black finally came to the point, "Why are you doing such a thing?" Mr. Gu was very angry, "Who told you to do it?" Aso's butler, who knelt on the ground and couldn't stop apologizing, hurriedly replied, "This is something I did alone." "You're trying to cover up, Yamazaki said secretly.

"So where is Miss now?" asked Maori with concern. "In a nearby restaurant. "Listening to Aso's housekeeper's words, Maori was excited, and it was finally solved, so beer or something, my Maori Kogoro is back, and by the way, I have to advertise, "As long as my detective Maori Kogoro comes out, no matter how difficult the case is, it will be solved." Yamazaki looked at Maori and couldn't bear to interrupt him. Isn't that ......

"Sir, I have your phone. A servant came in a hurry with a phone in hand. Interrupted Maori's fantasies.

"Are you ready for 300 million yuan?" The smarter kidnapper who kidnapped Miss Gu Jingzi from the place where she was imprisoned after being kidnapped for the first time called again, "Dad, just save me." ”

"Say as much as you can, try to find out where the kidnappers are. Maori's words were very correct, but Mr. Gu subconsciously repeated, "Where?" The kidnapper thought that there was a police officer nearby, and Mr. Gu hurriedly explained, "No, he is not a policeman." "Dad, in the school warehouse, you can see a big chimney from the window, hmm......" This is Miss Gu Jingzi heard her father's words and shouted, and finally the kidnappers covered her mouth.

Now that there was a clue to the address, looking at Conan, who was already checking the map, Yamazaki said to Maori: "It should be near the hotel, judging from the time, he can't go far." ”

"We're chasing after the dog," Maori called at Lan as Conan ran out on his dog.

Yamazaki hadn't gone looking for it at this time. "Where is that hotel, Aso housekeeper?" While listening to Aso's answer, he said to Mr. Gu: "Can you make up the old banknote of 300 million yuan?" "This ......" Mr. Gu's face was embarrassed. Seeing this, Yamazaki said: "You try to make up as much as you can, and the kidnappers will grind again when they call, after all, it is not easy to ask for 300 million yuan in old banknotes at night, isn't it?" "I'll go and prepare." Mr. Gu's eyes lit up and he left.

"Don't go," Yamazaki grabbed the butler Aso, who wanted to help, and didn't realize that he had become a kidnapper prisoner, "Take me to the hotel." Seeing that he still wanted to speak, Yamazaki didn't want to bother with him, "This is your chance to atone for your sins." ”

"It's a five-star one," Yamazaki, who came by car looking at the building, asked Aso, "Is it Miss Akiko Tani who comes often, or is it your family?" ”

"You know this guy, right?" asked Yamazaki in a tough tone to the manager. "Yes, Butler Aso," replied the manager, "Butler Aso went into Miss Tani's room in the afternoon. Hearing him say this, Yamazaki smiled, "Now that Miss Akiko Tani is missing, she is suspected of having been kidnapped from the hotel." "What?" the manager's face changed, "This, this ......" "Let's not talk about the rest, you first let the waiters and greeters who have been in the hotel from the afternoon to the door gather here." Yamazaki said to the manager, who had already started to sweat. "Okay, okay. Without caring about wiping his sweat, the manager hurriedly ran out.

"By the way, I have a question for you," Yamazaki said to Aso's butler, looking at the wait, "why did you find Maori Kogoro's head, and how did you pick him?"

"This, this ......" Aso Butler obviously didn't want to answer.

"Say it, see if it's the same as I thought. Yamazaki encouraged him.

"This, on the report given, there is only ......" Aso's housekeeper said with difficulty, "In the second half of last year, Maori Kogoro ......"

"Hah......" Yamazaki laughed, "Sure enough, as I thought, the other kidnapper is Miss Tani Akiko herself." Yamazaki said suddenly.

"No, I'm the only one," Aso's butler shouted, "I'm the only kidnapper." ”

"Which kidnapper put the hostage in a five-star hotel where the hostages can move freely, and it wasn't a movie, someone threatened you with your family, and asked you to lie to the lady and the owner at the same time" Yamazaki pointed to Aso's forehead and said, "Do you have a motive to kidnap Miss Akiko Tani, depending on how worried you are and make people think that you are the one who was kidnapped." ”

"This, this ......" Aso's housekeeper took out a handkerchief and wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, muttering speechless.

"Ha," Yamazaki smiled, seeing that there were already a lot of people at the door, he walked over and asked in a loud voice: "Who saw Miss Gu Jingzi going out, with whom, walking, or making a car, what car, which direction." ”

After questioning, a service staff saw Miss Gu Jingzi and a man leaving, wearing an ordinary, blue-black shirt, gray-white pants, and a baseball cap. The person who opened the door to greet the guest only saw the man carrying a bag less than half a person high on his shoulder, did not see Miss Gu Jingzi, and made sure that he was not in the car, and did not pay attention to the direction he left.

"There's a school nearby that sits next to this hotel. Yamazaki watched Conan run through the gate on a dog, pointed in the direction of Conan and said to the manager, after getting his confirmation, he said to Aso's housekeeper: "The five-star hotel actually let a stranger casually take out an underage girl who often comes, and her family doesn't even know about it, you go to them to ask for an explanation, and let them compensate for the loss, you can do this thing well, this is considered your atonement." After saying that, Kanlan had already entered the hotel area, so he shouted at her, and then chased after Conan, who had already entered the alley.

"I'll do it. Aso's butler assured Yamazaki's back, and then solemnly said to the pale manager, "Inform your boss, let's have a good talk." ”
