Chapter 196 Ayumi's Painting Diary Ⅳ (8)

Conan picked up the phone and dialed Officer Takagi's number: "Hello, Officer Takagi? I need your urgent investigation."

Officer Takagi on the other end of the phone replied: "Okay, but, Conan. I checked, but there is no one in charge of the Fourth District at the Beihua Post Office. I also checked various express delivery companies, but it seems that no one uses the term 'Fourth District'."

Conan frowned, feeling disappointed: "Damn, I've reached a dead end."

Ayumi looked at Conan's nervous expression and became nervous too: "What else? Any other clues?"

Ayumi quickly flipped through her drawing diary, and when she turned to the page about the Chinese snack bar, Conan saw it.

Conan pointed at the white van in the painting and said excitedly: "This, this van!"

Conan's eyes were full of joy: "You've done a great job this time, Ayumi." He praised with a smile.

In a dark, empty house, the man was trying to get Guangyan's parents' contact information. He threatened: "So, Guangyan. Can you tell me your parents' contact information?"

Although Mitsuhiko was young, he was smart and he firmly refused: "No, if I told you, you would definitely ask for a ransom."

When the man saw that his threats didn’t work, he tried to persuade her in another way: “But if you don’t tell me, you can’t go home.”

Mitsuhiko was not moved at all: "Does it mean I can definitely go home if I tell him?" His words were full of distrust towards the kidnappers.

Seeing how smart Mitsuhiko was, the man couldn't help but applaud and praise him: "As expected of the Junior Detective Team."

However, at this moment, Ayumi's voice came from outside the door: "No, no, that's too much of a compliment."

The man was horrified. He turned around and looked at the door, only to see the Junior Detective Team and a group of police officers rushing in. He asked in panic, "You, what's wrong with you? Why are you here?"

Yuan Tai smiled proudly: "We have seen through everything." His voice was full of the joy of victory.

Conan faced Negishi Yuji and said firmly: "That's it, so don't make any unnecessary resistance, Mr. Negishi Yuji."

Yuji Negishi was shocked: "Why? Why even my name...?" He obviously didn't expect that his identity would be revealed so quickly.

Conan calmly explained: "Because he used the special term 'fourth district', I thought it was the postman at first. But there is no one in charge of the fourth district in Beika Town. I thought I had reached a dead end, but when I investigated, I found something."

Negishi Yuji asked nervously, "What's the matter?"

Huiyuan Ai took over the conversation: "That means not all mail is delivered by the post office."

Ayumi also excitedly interjected: "The opportunity was my painting diary!" She proudly raised the painting diary in her hand.

Conan pointed at the van in Ayumi's painting and said, "This van, you see the license plate of this car is green, right?"

Huihara Ai nodded: "Cars with green license plates are used for passenger or freight transportation."

Conan continued to analyze: "The company 'Hyena Express' that undertook the mail delivery business in Beika Town would use the name 'Four Districts'. I confirmed that the person in charge of 'Four Districts' has been you, uncle, for ten years."

Huihara Ai added: "Because Ayumi carefully drew the license plate number, it was found out quickly."

Conan looked at Negishi Yuji and said firmly: "If the uncle who knows every corner of the street is the one who kidnapped Mitsuhiko, he would never take him to a house where there are families. So, where else can you take Mitsuhiko?"

When Yuji Negishi heard Conan's analysis, his face turned paler: "Did you find this place just by this?" His voice was full of unwillingness and surprise.

Officer Takagi nodded and continued, "You may have sneaked into the empty houses scattered around the street. We combined various conditions such as the empty houses in the four districts of Beika Town, the distance between houses, and houses with high walls blocking the view. The scope was narrowed down to 6 houses including this empty house. The rest is for us police to check one by one."

He looked at Negishi Yuji and said firmly, "Anyway, that's it. Give up resistance."

Officer Takagi stepped forward and said sternly, "Yuji Negishi, you are under arrest for abducting a minor and kidnapping in the act of committing a crime."

[As soon as he walked out of the door, Takagi Wataru bent down and said to Negishi Yuji, "Mr. Negishi, thank you for your hard work. I made you suffer so much injustice on Children's Day."

Negishi Yuji, eh? What did you say?

Takagi began to reason. First, real robbers usually don't reveal their true faces before taking action. Second, robbers won't be so friendly to hostages (please refer to Chapter 48 and Chapter 100 of this book for the robbers' behavior). Third, real robbers usually don't use vehicles that reveal their identities.

IQ reasoning question: assuming Negishi is not the real robber, then who is the person who invited Negishi?

A. Conan Edogawa

B. Huiyuan Ai

C. Ayumi Yoshida

D. Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya】

The last entry in Ayumi's drawing diary: "Just like that, thanks to the efforts of Ayumi's drawing diary and the Junior Detective Team, the kidnapping case of Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya was solved safely!"

The atmosphere at the Maori Detective Agency was relaxed and joyful. Mitsuhiko excitedly said to everyone, "Thank you so much for saving me."

Yuan Tai waved his hands carelessly: "It's okay, it's okay, don't worry about it."

Ayumi pointed at Conan excitedly and said, "Conan also showed his skills today."

Conan shook his head modestly: "Not yet, this time thanks to Ayumi's painting diary, the case was solved."

Huihara added with a sad smile: "I drew the license plate in the drawing diary, and painted it green. This diary is evidence that Ayumi's observation skills have improved."

Mitsuhiko looked at Ayumi gratefully: "Yes, I'm still alive, thanks to Ayumi."

Officer Gao Mu reminded sternly: "Having said that, you must not take the initiative to take risks."

The Young Detectives answered in unison: "Okay!"

Officer Takagi smiled and said, "Okay, then, let's get started."

Ayumi's final commentary: "As a reward, Officer Takagi treated us to a meal. Although I was worried at first, the drawing diary also shined in this case. This is the 'Ayumi Drawing Diary Case Book', so stay tuned for the next content!"
