Stay away from Conan.

Admittedly, what Officer Takagi and Officer Sato said were correct. The door at the scene was not damaged. It was entirely possible that the boy named Kota opened the door. Therefore, although nothing was found after entering the apartment, Miyano Akemi actually had a basic feeling that something might have happened here -

However, it is not certain that this incident will threaten the safety of the boy named Kota.

However, if what we expected is correct, the problem lies in the letters or postcards received by the Emoto siblings. Even though the Emoto siblings said that they had never received anything strange or special, it is possible that the thing is very important to the mysterious person who approached the children?

So, after Miyano Akemi brought Miyamoto Yumi here, they did not follow Conan and the others to search in the apartment first, but recalled the location of their letters and postcards mentioned by the Emoto siblings before, thinking that if there was a chance, they should look for them first to see if they could find any problems. At this time, on the other side, the Emoto siblings got the news first -

"Mr. Police Officer!"

When the Emoto siblings were searching in the room, when they came to the computer in front of the room, they looked very panicked and started shouting to the police officers present.

In this regard, not only Officer Sato and Officer Takagi, but also Conan and others who were searching the house hurriedly chased after them to see what emergency had happened that made the Emoto siblings so anxious.

"what happened?"

Officer Sato and Officer Takagi ran over first and asked, and Conan followed closely behind.

"This, this..."

The Emoto siblings said this a little nervously, pointing at the computer screen.

So, under their guidance, everyone looked at the computer screen, and saw a document opened on the computer with a paragraph of text typed on it:

"I have your cousin in my hands! Hurry up and prepare one million yen! I will contact you later! If you call the police, I will kill you!"

——“This, this is…”

Suddenly, as everyone saw the text on the computer screen that was clearly the content of the ransom note, everyone's expressions suddenly became solemn.

After all, things immediately took a turn for the worst.

“Kidnapping!”

As these words came out, not only the few people who saw the text, but also Maori Kogoro and Xiaolan were extremely surprised after hearing these words -

"Kidnapped? Was Haota, who was alone at home, kidnapped?"

Xiaolan asked nervously.

"um, yes!"

Emoto Aya said with great concern:

"This message was left on my brother's computer..."

As a result, Maori Kogoro seemed to have sobered up all of a sudden because of what happened at the moment. His drunken state was basically gone. He calmed down and walked to the computer to look at the content displayed on the screen. After thinking seriously for a moment, he looked at Officer Sato and Officer Takagi and asked in surprise:

"But, you are the police?"

After all, the last sentence of the threatening letter was asking the Emoto siblings not to call the police, but at this moment, the kidnapping was discovered only with the involvement of the police, so what was going on?

In this way, facing Maori Kogoro's question, Officer Takagi couldn't help but smile awkwardly and said:

"Yes, yes..."

If we really think about it, this does count as “calling the police”, right?

"However, this saves them the time of hesitating whether to call the police..."

Officer Sato was relatively calm and said this, because no matter how unwilling he was, the police had already known about the matter.

"Anyway, I'd better contact this department and ask for support first!" Faced with such a situation, Takagi Shigeru couldn't help but take out his mobile phone and contact Officer Megure and others.

However, Officer Sato stopped him:

"no!"

Officer Takagi was a little puzzled by Officer Sato's behavior, and then he saw Officer Sato answer:

"The criminal entered this house and kidnapped Kota! So he is very likely still nearby monitoring the situation here. Therefore, the current situation looks like just his friends from the social gathering coming to his house to continue drinking and having fun. If a group of police rush over later, wouldn't he be exposed immediately? And..."

At this point, looking at Takagi Wataru holding the phone, Sato Miwako shouted:

"Don't call a cell phone that can be easily bugged! This room doesn't look like it has any bugs, but if you want to ask for help, you should at least check if other rooms and phones have any bugs! Don't you know this common sense?"

In this way, Officer Sato seemed to be unable to help but scold Officer Takagi. I wonder if it was an extension of the emotional rivalry between the two at the social gathering just now.

"Yes, I'm sorry..."

After Officer Sato said this, Officer Takagi subconsciously apologized, but seeing their reactions, "Gao Yuan", also known as Miyano Akemi, who did not come to look at the computer screen at the first time, felt a little helpless about the conversation between the two here.

Looking at the current situation, it is true that what Officer Sato said is correct, but——

"Um... Officer Sato..."

At this moment, Miyano Akemi couldn't help herself, and after thinking about it, she stepped forward and reminded:

"If there was a bug, your reactions just now should have been heard, right?"

After all, Officer Sato's voice was so loud just now.

After Gao Yuan mentioned this, both Officer Sato and Officer Takagi were stunned and realized that the conversation just now was really too loud. So Officer Sato's statement that phone calls could easily be eavesdropped on was actually counterproductive.

As a result, both of them were a little stunned, not knowing what to say, but at the same time they also understood -

Now, it seems that we can only hope that there are really no bugs here.

——"I also want to say..."

Conan, who was standing by, had the same idea when listening to Gao Yuan's words. After all, the person who kidnapped Kota and left a threatening letter on the computer in the room had directly broken into the room. Who knew if he had left anything in the room...

However, it is too late to say all this. We can only hope that there are no eavesdropping devices.

and……

"Besides, don't you think there is something more important to pay attention to than the bug?"

In this regard, seeing the two police officers react in this way, Miyano Akemi felt helpless. In the puzzled eyes of several people, Miyano Akemi pointed to the computer showing the threatening letter and said -

"The person who took Hao Tai away obviously touched the computer at home. Isn't it easier to tamper with the computer than to install a bug?"

In this way, Miyano Akemi took the opportunity to say something that fits Gao Yuan's character... (End of this chapter)
