Saturday, December 8th, afternoon, near the National Theater.

Dr. Asasa and the five members of the Junior Detective Corps found a fast-food restaurant for lunch, and they were able to see James's parking lot.

Conan looked at the parking lot while eating, trying to find out which one was James's car, but before the car could be found, he found someone getting out of a taxi.

"Poof!" ......Conan choked on food.

"What's wrong?" Dr. Asa asked.

"Jen, James......" Conan wiped his mouth and ran out.

Dr. Asasa and the five of them looked to find James in front of a van in the parking lot and ran over together.

James saw Conan and the six coming, closed the van door and greeted him, "I'm so sorry, I ran into a friend and forgot about you for a while." ”

Ayumi asked, "Huh, so you're not abducted?"

"Abduction?" James was surprised.

Mitsuhiko said, "Yes, we saw that you didn't come, and we thought you were taken away because you looked like Mr. Hawke." ”

James smiled and asked, "Who said that?"

"It's Conan. Yuan Tai said, "As soon as I saw the pendant on the side of the road, I was sure that something had happened to you, and I thought of a rescue plan to use eight police cars to save you." ”

Conan took out the clasp pendant, "This clasp pendant is yours, right?"

"Oh, so it's here," James laughed, "and that's great, I'm wondering where to find it." As he spoke, he picked up the pendant.

Conan asked, "Are you sure it's yours?"

"I guess so. "It used to scratch my hand, and you see, there's blood on it." Then he laughed, "Oh, I see, that's what made you misunderstand." ”

Gray Yuan asked, "So, what's the matter with the blood stains on this?"

James laughed: "At that time, I was talking to my friends while walking and playing with the pendant in my pocket, but I accidentally scratched my hand, so I took my hand out of my pocket. This pendant should have fallen at that time, I was talking to a friend at the time and didn't pay attention, but fortunately you found it. ”

"I see. Dr. Asasa said, "By the way, I'll inform Officer Takagi." Then he called Officer Takagi on his mobile phone, "Officer, the person has been found, so there is no need to look for it." ”

"Huh?" Officer Sato and Officer Takagi were surprised.

"Well," Dr. Asa said with a dry laugh, "maybe I'm overthinking, there wasn't any abduction pretending to be a police officer. ”

"What!" shouted Officers Sato and Takagi.

"Well, that's it, I'm sorry, I'm very sorry. Dr. Asa laughed dryly, and then quickly hung up.

James asked Dr. Asasa, "Well, it's going to be fine, right?"

"Probably not. "You don't have to worry about it. ”

"I'm so sorry. James laughed, "Now, it's past lunchtime, so let me entertain you with afternoon tea." ”

"Great!" said Motota, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko together. ……

In the afternoon, in front of the café near the National Theater.

After watching Dr. Asa leave with the Junior Detective Group, James turned around and walked towards the parking lot where his car was, and soon after, he smelled a smell of smoke coming from behind him, frowned and said, "Shuichi, you smoke less." ”

"I know. Shuichi's voice came from behind him, and Xiuyi, who was wearing a knitted hat and a mask, smiled, "Then again, you did well today." ”

James said, "I'm embarrassed to say that I actually want to do it." ”

Xiuyi smiled and said, "When I drove by, you gave me a look." ”

James said helplessly: "Well, I didn't expect them to be like that. ”

Shuichi asked, "Then when did you know they had a problem?"

"If I met by chance, they were supposed to speak English to me as a foreigner, but they seemed to me to speak Japanese as a matter of course, so I knew it was a suspicious person who came to approach me, and they just took out their police ID and didn't open it," James said. ”

Shuichi asked, "Then why did you go with them?"

"There were children there, and it wouldn't be good if they were hit by a stray bullet," James said. Then he pushed down his glasses, "And I wanted to try that detective group." ”

Shuichi asked, "So you left something with your fingerprints?"

James smiled, "If there is something, I believe you can help me get it back." ”

Shuichi asked, "Okay, what about the test results?"

James laughed, "Yes, I found a little Sherlock Holmes." ”

Shuichi asked, "It's very high." ”

James said: "It's amazing to be able to think of me as having an accident from the bloody letters, to the police car, even though I'm in Japan and I'm used to seeing black and white police cars, but for his age, it's pretty good, and then he came up with a viable plan to rescue the hostages." ”

Shuichi said, "Oh? ”

James said: "If it weren't for you, Hawk said that something would happen in his dreams, and I almost didn't agree when I was asked to be a stand-in, but it didn't come true that his dream actually came true." Then he asked, "But weren't you dumped by your lover, what are you calling me for, did you think of a way to get back together with your lover?"

Xiuyi sneered: "No, I want her to regret it, the price of throwing me off is blood and tears." ”

James laughed, "Well, it just so happens that Hawke is in danger, I can justifiably find some people to help." ”

Xiuyi smiled and said, "Then thank you." ”

At this time, the parking lot where James put his car arrived, and James and Xiuyi got into their respective cars and left, and the two of them were one after the other from beginning to end, without looking at each other. ……

On the other side, before evening, in the courtyard of Dr. Agasa's house.

After getting out of the car, Motota, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko went home with round little bellies, while Dr. Asasa, Conan, and Gray Hara entered Dr. Asasa's house.
