Conan: This repairman is not very knowledgeable

Chapter 559 Come to the door

"By the way, the criminal has met Kota before, and he is very likely a friend of this older brother, right?" Conan asked everyone.

"That's right." Takagi nodded.

Everyone in the restaurant heard the Emoto siblings talking about this matter.

Five-year-old Kota helped the man pick up the wallet. The man then invited Kota to his home to eat cake and gave him a limited edition Kamen Rider card.

"Please tell Uncle Kogoro the details of what happened. Maybe we can figure out who the criminal is." Conan walked to the slightly drunk Uncle Mouri and said with a smile.

"That's true." Uncle Maori nodded dazedly.

Everything you said is right!
Lin Feng ordered a bit too much wine, and he drank it to his heart's content.

"Is it really okay?"

Masashi Emoto felt that the sleeping Kogoro was a little drunk, so he looked at him with suspicion and led everyone to sit on the sofa.

"I remember it was the Saturday of the week before last?" he asked, looking at his sister beside him.

"Haota went out to play that day and returned home around eight o'clock in the evening."

"I was standing in front of the window and watching. I wanted to call the police at that time."

"Just at this time, he came back safely and took the initiative to apologize to me. He said that he would not dare to do it again next time and would not go to his mother to complain. I felt it was not easy to scold him because of this." Emoto Aya nodded and said.

When Kota was at that man's house, Masashi Emoto also made a phone call and left a message, saying that he wanted to hold a social gathering.

Both the siblings thought the other was a friend.

No one could have imagined that this child would come into contact with such a dangerous kidnapper.

"Is anything lost?" Lin Feng asked after taking a look at the environment inside the house.

There were no signs of any rummaging at the scene.

"There are no valuables at home, and I always carry cash with me." Emoto Aya shook her head.

She went to check just now and found that the passbook was still hidden in its original place.

"This criminal had asked Kota questions about the furnishings in the house before. Maybe he wanted to break into the house and steal at first, but didn't find anything valuable, so he chose to kidnap Kota." Sato frowned and thought.

"Officer Takagi, how much ransom do kidnappers normally ask for nowadays?" Conan asked while tugging at Takagi's trouser leg, but his eyes were always on the repairman.

"How much is the ransom?" Takagi thought carefully.

The cases that the police handle the most are probably those in the tens of millions.

"One million, does this amount have any special meaning?"

"For example, you just received some extra income?" Lin Feng noticed Director Ke's eyes, knew what he meant, and asked on his behalf.

Of course, he himself was also very curious about how much the kidnapper needed this small one million.

"Extra income?" The brother and sister looked at each other.

"Lottery tickets, greeting cards, and postcards all have lottery versions now," Uncle Maori reminded. He was now much more sober.

This kind of sudden income is indeed likely to arouse envy.

"If something wins a prize, my sister will be the first to find out. She loves raffles and giveaways." Masashi Emoto shook his head and said with a smile.

"What? You are an adult, but you are still collecting cards like a child." Emoto Aya looked at her brother speechlessly.

"Haha, I'm the same as Kota. I've been collecting Kamen Rider cards since I was very young, and I'm still doing it even now that I've grown up." Masashi Emoto scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Look through the call records and see who you called during the time when Haotai was out that day. Focus on those who didn't go to the party today." Lin Feng felt that this kid was a little abnormal, and he could still laugh.

"No one is going to the social gathering today..." Jiang Ben took out his phone and flipped through it for a while.

Three people were found.

Between the afternoon and evening of that day, Brother Jiang Ben called and left messages for these three people, and they said that they did not go to the party that day.

"This guy named Liutian was my childhood friend."

"The second one is my junior in high school, his name is Yinwu."

"The third person is a regular at the gym where I work, Mr. Satsuka."

"None of the three of them are bad people," Masashi Emoto added.

"I agree with your point of view." Lin Feng said with a smile.

"Eh?!"

Everyone looked at the repairman.

The document left on the computer stated that the other party threatened to kill people.

"Kidnappers who are willing to put on disguises will usually leave the hostage alive."

"So many days have passed, and there should have been more than one or two opportunities for kidnapping. He was hesitating and struggling, and finally had no other options." Lin Feng analyzed.

The Emoto siblings live with this cousin, and it is estimated that they mostly let him do what he wants. They both have work and private lives, so there is nothing they can do about it. The opportunity to take action is definitely not just tonight.

"That means Kota shouldn't be in any danger?" Emoto Aya believed Lin Feng more.

"Whether there is danger or not, home invasion kidnapping is not a simple case." Sato shook his head.

It must be taken seriously.

"By the way, the criminal once asked Kota about the letters at home, right?"

"Could it be that he wants to look for something while no one is around?" Director Ke stood next to the cabinet at the door, looking at the letters on it, and came up with a new idea.

"I can't think of anything noteworthy." Emoto Aya, who usually cares more about lotteries and other things, shook her head.

"Since my friends are so suspicious, I might as well go to their homes now. All three of them told me that they have family matters and cannot come to the party."

Masashi Emoto opened the door and spoke to everyone.

"That's true. Now that we have locked on the target, we might as well go over and take a look." Sato made a decision immediately and prepared to check one by one.

"Will we be suspected?" Xiaolan asked.

After all, Sato and Takagi are both real detectives, and it would be a shame if they found out something if they went to their homes.

In fact, this kind of operation can easily lead to serious consequences.

"We will pretend to be visiting after just finishing a social gathering. If the other party behaves strangely, we will arrest him immediately..." Sato briefly discussed the battle plan with Takagi.

"I think so."

"I came here with Gao Mu, Mr. Lin Feng, Mr. Jiang Ben, and this child."

Sato also did not forget to pull the little kid Conan to cover him.

After all, solving a case doesn’t involve elementary school students…
