In the end, because of the urgency of the situation, Conan's side decided to do as the kidnappers asked first.

…… The main thing is that there are really no clues at the moment.

Even the cell phone that the kidnappers used to send text messages was taken from Dr. Asasa.

Even if you call the police, it's hard to find out.

"What's more, if it's a professional kidnapper, most of the people who use it are black cards."

Shuichi Akai finally spoke: "At present, only by finding the cat first can we have a chance to communicate with the kidnappers further, so that no matter whether they will really release people later, there is a possibility of finding a flaw." ”

"Hmm."

Conan nodded heavily, and then gave an order, and went out to find the cat collectively.

…… Sano and the little girl stayed.

The reason used is that the kidnappers may be trying to divert the tiger away from the mountain, or there may be some important clues left in the house, so Sano wants to stay in the base camp, as for the little girl...... A kindergarten kid going out is just a drag.

Conan naturally didn't say much about this.

Not to mention that Sano's excuse is very reasonable, then even if there is no excuse, this matter will not interfere with his relationship in the first place, does Conan still want to accuse him of indifference?

After seeing Conan and his party go out, Sano turned his gaze to the little girl next to him.

Even if you don't have fox eyes, you can see that there is something wrong with the little girl's state.

But considering that she was stunned by the kidnappers just now, ordinary people probably only think that the little girl was frightened by today's events, but ...... Fear, confusion, sadness, these emotions are all telling Sano.

It's not that simple.

After squinting, Sano glanced at the puddle on the ground...... Coffee?

Then he asked the little girl, "Are you hungry?" ”

"Huh?"

The little girl came back to her senses and responded in a trance.

"Hmm."

"I don't know how to cook, so I'll just order delivery, what do you want to eat."

"You can ...... it"

Sano frowned, but didn't say anything, took out his phone and made a call.

It didn't take a while.

The rider of Nadutong brought a pizza, some snacks and two drinks.

"It's time to eat."

"Hmmm......"

While eating, Sano was also thinking about today's incident.

It looks on the bright side.

At the beginning, the kidnappers' goal seemed to be to kidnap Ayumi, but according to the situation explained by Conan later, the real source was that Dr. Asa was shooting a video to put his vase on a second-hand website to sell, and accidentally took a picture of the reflection of Ash Yuan in his glasses.

But when I was cooking curry today, Motota kicked the football into the bucket, causing Ayumi to splash all the curry, so she went to take a shower and changed into Gray Hara's clothes by the way...... To put it bluntly, it is possible that the kidnappers have made the wrong target.

And because of that.

Yuan Tai and Gray Yuan Wai were both obviously in a state of self-blame before.

Needless to say, Yuan Tai just felt that if he hadn't played football in the house, he had to go to the supermarket to buy new ingredients, and let Bumi change into Gray Yuanai's clothes, maybe this wouldn't have happened.

And the gray plain mourns the other side...... It's nothing more than worrying about whether the kidnappers are related to the organization, in fact, they are coming for themselves, and they just "accidentally injured" Ayumi or something, but in Sano's opinion, this possibility is very small.

Because if it's really an organization that does it.

So let's not talk about it, since it involves the big fish of Gray Plains, it must be a member of the cadre level who comes out to work, whether it will be a rookie, and it can make such a big mistake, so even if it is really the same as the few wastes that have died earlier, there is such a big mistake, but it shouldn't be over so simply.

At the very least, you have to keep a bomb, or maybe set it on fire, right?

Anyway, it definitely belongs to the scope that should be extinguished, Dr. Asa and the little girl, they shouldn't be able to stand here and gasp for breath at the moment - food is food, it is impossible not to even know the rules, otherwise who will not be able to breathe.

But it's a little hard to say.

Isn't it precisely because Akai Shuichi knows this that he didn't act before.

Sano couldn't help but be a little skeptical.

This fake Lori,Isn't it inevitable that you look down on your own company too much?

Although sometimes, the dish is a real dish.

But I know in my heart that it is different from being treated like this.

It's a bit of a stretch after all.

It's not that Sano has any sense of collective pride for the organization.

It's just that if you take it again, the image of your own vest.

It's pulled down the level, how to do it?

Should I get this false face back?

Sano has already wondered in his heart, whether to scare the fake Lori......

Cough.

As for what the kidnappers said in the text message, their real target was the cat.

Anyway, Sano doesn't believe it.

But that cat is still a little concerned.

In Dr. Agasa's video, in addition to himself, the vase he wants to sell, and the reflection of Ash Yuan in the glasses, another key point is the cat.

A blue cat.

Dr. Asasa's original intention was to make the video more dynamic and make the vase look more attractive so that it could be sold...... As a result, he didn't expect to be targeted by the kidnappers because of this, but the problem is that he doesn't know where the cat came from and where it is now, it's just outrageous.

I don't know if Conan will find any clues outside.

After eating and drinking enough and a cigarette after eating, Sano realized it.

The sun was about to set, and it was already dusk.

Sano took out his phone and looked at it.

Except for the text message sent by Shuichi Akai asking if he had found it, it was ......

"Click."

The gate suddenly opened, and Sano turned around, and it was Conan and his party who had returned.

It's just that compared to when I went out, there was another step in the team that came back...... Well??

What's the extra thing?

Sano's eyes widened a little in surprise, confirming that he was not mistaken.

Ayumi has returned safely.

…… So this case is, it's over?

No, my mission is not over, that is, the truth has not come out yet?

Sano leaned over and listened to the situation.

It turned out that Conan and his party were looking for a cat for an afternoon outside, but they didn't get anything at all, because just one photo, several people.

It's really hard to find a target in an afternoon.

But just as the sun was about to set, the kidnappers sent another text message, saying that the cat had been found, so he returned Ayumi.

…… Well, I actually gave it back, and people are still weird?

In the end, Conan and his entourage, according to the text message, found Ayumi who was wrapped in a carpet next to the garbage dump...... It turns out to be a carpet.

Sano listened to Ayumi explain what she experienced after Dr. Asa was corona when she opened the door - the two kidnappers were wearing hoods and even used voice changers, and the only gain was the process of communication between the two, which further confirmed the purpose of the two, which was really just the cat.

"Anyway, now that the people are back, then everything is fine."

Dr. Asa patted his chest and said with a sigh of relief, "Then there is nothing to take into account, you can directly report to the police and deal with it, right?" ”

"Not yet."

Sano and Conan vetoed it at the same time.
