Chapter 44: The Promise between Takagi and Date’s Notebook (8)

Takagi and Amuro came running back, and Takagi gasped, "That's great, the baby is fine."

Conan immediately asked the blond boy: "Well, you, could it be that besides you, there are other people who were caught?"

The blond boy, named Alan, nodded silently.

Everyone was shocked: "Hey!"

Sato also ran back and said apologetically: "Sorry, everyone. The kidnapper blended into the crowd and ran away. But it seems that the kidnapped Alan is fine."

[Genta, eh? Isn't Sister Sato very powerful? How could she let someone escape?

Sato is a little shy. Today, she is patrolling with Officer Takagi, so the heels are a little high! 】

Conan interrupted her: "Ah, no!"

Sato asked in confusion, "Huh?"

Conan took a deep breath and said, "Well, actually..."

Sato asked nervously, "What? Besides this child, another person was also kidnapped?"

Conan nodded: "Well, Alan was kidnapped while playing in the park! The child who was playing with Alan at the time was not found either, right?"

Takagi answered, "Yes. We asked all of Alan's friends at school, but none of them were the ones Alan hung out with."

Conan calmly analyzed: "I think that Alan never escaped from the car even though he was not tied up because the kidnapper told him that if he escaped without permission, his friends who were kidnapped with him would suffer. Is that right?"

Alan nodded, with a hint of fear in his eyes, obviously Conan hit the nail on the head.

Officer Sato frowned. "But, that friend's parents, since their child didn't come home, they kept silent. Why is that?"

Alan whispered, "Yuji, he transferred to another school, but he came to return my Ballon de foot, so he played in the park for a while."

Ayumi looked confused: "Ballon de...?"

Conan explained: "It's French, it means football."

Amuro Toru nodded, "I see. The school that Yuji transferred to should be in Chiba or Saitama, a school that can be reached by train or bus. If he came to return the football that Alan borrowed from him without telling his parents, and was kidnapped, then the missing person notice for Yuji would only be posted in that area. And there is no way to not link him to the kidnapping case."

[Mitsuhiko, Amuro-san’s reasoning is always very reliable.

Amuro Toru, what's wrong? I am just stating the facts, there is no reasoning process at all. 】

Officer Gao Mu bent down and gently asked Alan: "Well, Alan, do you know where you have been imprisoned so far?"

Alan shook his head and replied, "I don't know."

Officer Sato frowned and continued to ask Alan: "Do you remember the route to here?"

Alan shook his head regretfully. “I was asked to lie down in the back seat of the car until we reached our destination. I couldn’t see out the window.”

Sato sighed, "I see!", obviously regretting the lack of this clue.

Alan suddenly remembered something and added, "But you can hear the radio talking about the road conditions when you set out and when you arrive."

Yuan Tai looked confused: "Talking about the road conditions? Broadcasting?"

Conan's eyes gleamed, and he thought quickly: "That can't be the road traffic information broadcast by Nichimei."

Alan nodded: "Yeah."

Conan already had the answer in his mind. He analyzed: "If that's the case, then the broadcast we heard when we arrived at our destination was at 11:58, and the broadcast we heard when we set out was at 11:28."

Amuro Toru immediately understood what Conan meant: "In other words, the driving time is 30 minutes."

[Mitsuhiko, hello, this is the busiest Beikacho in Tokyo, and it’s rush hour at noon, okay?

Conan, Toru Amuro, Takagi, and Sato all looked back. If a child doesn't understand, don't talk nonsense. 】

Officer Takagi also responded: "Somewhere about 30 minutes' drive from here is where Yuji is imprisoned."
