"Who do you think this person is?"

20 years ago, due to a prank, Tetsuji Inaba died in a car accident.

Because it involved a murder case, the six people involved at the time did not dare to speak out...

20 years later, Yusuke Sakata killed four of them, leaving only two.

If Kiichiro Numabuchi wants to seek help from others, the safest way is to threaten and force them...

"Member, Sotaro Goji!"

Conan was the first to come up with the answer:

"You mean, Kiichiro Numabuchi will seek help from Sotarou Goji?"

"That's right."

Sakaki Makoto nodded slightly:

"This is the only way out for Kiichiro Numabuchi!"

I picked up the travel brochure from the table, flipped through a few pages, and found the map of Osaka.

Tapping the map with his finger, Sakaki Makoto said:

"Sotaro Goji's home is in Chuo-ku, the center of Osaka."

"But the report phoned in that the location where Kiichiro Numabuchi's car was found was in Higashinari Ward, east of Osaka."

"Toshinari District is located due east and slightly south of Chuo District, and Minoh Mountain where Numabuchi Kiichiro is hiding is due north of Chuo District. If Numabuchi Kiichiro wanted to come to Chuo District to seek help from Goji Sotaro, why would he take a detour to Toshinari District?"

After a thorough analysis, Conan and the other two gradually changed their expressions.

them...

I understand what Sakaki Makoto means.

Kiichiro Numabuchi escaped from Tokyo.

He fled westward and arrived in Osaka.

So the next step should be to continue moving away from Tokyo and heading west, right?

It is not reasonable for the other party to appear in Dongcheng District...

"The mere presence of an empty vehicle is enough to attract the attention of the police."

"It's not a very clever method, but it's very useful."

Sakaki Makoto stood up and put on his sunglasses:

"If I'm not mistaken..."

"The car that appeared in Osaka Higashijo was a bait."

"I'm afraid the real Kiichiro Numabuchi is driving another car right now, planning to leave the city from the west!"

"This is a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain!"
