"I'm so sorry!"
Gao Mu quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe the table, while Emoto Aya shook her head, as if she had come back to her senses from her previous state, and quickly stood up: "I think I'd better go back. After all, such a strange thing happened just now."
"Strange things?"
Tang Ze raised an eyebrow when he heard this, and his previously casual attitude suddenly became serious: "Is it convenient for you to tell me what it is?"
He did not forget the possible cases that might happen in the place. After all, the "classic trio" was present this time and he could not afford to be careless.
"There's nothing to be said, it's just about Kota."
Masashi Emoto said, "One time, when he brought a friend over to play, he showed off a very limited edition Kamen Rider battle card to his friend.
Later I asked him where he got it, and he said a kind uncle gave it to him.
He said that the man had a full beard and long bangs that blocked his eyes, making it difficult to see his face clearly.
His wallet fell in front of Haotai, and Haotai picked it up for him and gave him the limited edition card as a thank you.
"Not only that, that person also took Hao Tai to his home and treated him to cake."
Sai Emoto said here with some uneasiness: "He also asked a lot of questions.
I asked Haotai what the other party asked, and he told me that the uncle was a fortune teller and he wanted to know what the layout of our room was like.
For example, the location of the sofa or bed, the entrance and so on.
Besides that, there are my and my brother’s birthdays, where the incoming mail is kept, etc.”
"It feels like someone with ulterior motives."
Tang Ze heard this and analyzed, "It sounds like 'email' is the other party's target. Generally, Feng Shui masters only pay attention to the placement of furniture in the house, and they won't specifically ask about trivial things like email."
"Yes, at that time, Hao Tai told him that my mail would be placed in the cabinet, and Shi's would be left on the table. The man also reminded Hao Tai that these were good locations and not to change them casually."
Aya Emoto looked a little uneasy when she said this.
"Did you find anything important in the email?" Takagi asked, touching his chin.
"I don't know. I haven't received it." Aya Emoto shook her head.
"Me neither." Masashi Emoto was not too nervous: "And I think that man should be my friend.
He probably wanted to give me a surprise on my birthday or something."
"Oh? Why do you think so?"
Tang Ze looked at Jiang Benshen and said, "Generally speaking, the first reaction when hearing something like this is definitely to be alert, right?
Why do you think the other person is your friend?"
"Because when Kota was eating cake at his house, the phone rang."
Masashi Emoto explained: "The man happened to go to the bathroom, and the call went to the answering machine, and then Kota heard my voice."
"Then can you guess who it is?" Xiaolan asked curiously.
"That's not clear."
Masashi Emoto said helplessly, "I called a lot of friends to get the right people to contact this time, so it must be someone among them.
It seemed that after hearing the message, the man hurriedly sent Haota home.
I guess he was afraid that I would find out, so he panicked like that."
"Then I wonder what that message said?" Conan asked.
"It's nothing. I just said that I would come here with my sister to hold a social gathering today." Masashi Emoto said without any tension.
But as soon as the words fell, the expressions of everyone present were stern.
"So, the man knows that both of you are not at home today?" Sato Miwako said with a serious expression.
"You're such a careless fellow." After harshly reprimanding Masashi Emoto for not caring about the child's safety, Tang Ze looked at Aya Emoto with a serious expression and said, "Call back quickly."
"I tried calling several times before but couldn't get through, so I was anxious to go back." Emoto Aya said with a worried look on her face. It was not until this moment that she felt that something was wrong.
"Let's go and take a look."
Karasawa stood up immediately. Chiba and Sato Miwako also wanted to call Chiba and Yumi, but they found that the two of them, including Maori Kogoro, were drunk.
There is no point in bringing a few drunk guys along. With Karasawa around, Conan doesn't need Kogoro Mouri to act as a stand-in for reasoning. Karasawa simply asks Ayako to help look after Yumi and the other two drunk guys, while they follow Aya Emoto back home.
They took a taxi to Aya Emoto's home, but they searched the whole house but couldn't find Kota.
At this point, Tang Ze thought to himself that it was bad.
Combined with the actions of the previous suspicious person, Tang Ze was basically able to determine that the other party's purpose was kidnapping.
When he saw Kogoro Mouri, Conan and others, he had already secretly become alert in order to guard against possible cases that might occur in the hotel.
But who would have thought that tonight's case was not a murder, but a kidnapping.
This was a surprise attack, catching Tang Ze off guard.
And the next moment, as if to confirm Tang Ze's bad premonition, the anxious cries of the Emoto siblings came directly from the bedroom.
When everyone rushed to the bedroom, they found that the computer Word file was open with a line of words typed on it.
"I have your cousin in my custody. Prepare one million yuan and wait for me to contact you. If you dare to call the police, I will kill him."
