Chapter 2599 2611 [Conan's Dead End] Ask for monthly ticket (`)
"Captain, the kidnappers' vehicle has entered the tunnel." The young police officer on the helicopter reported the situation at the scene. "The tunnel is about 1 kilometer long. At the kidnappers' current speed, they can drive out from the other end in about a minute."
"Very good!" Inspector Megure was delighted. "Let the helicopter and the people on the other side block him at the tunnel exit. I think this guy is so panicked that he actually went into the pocket himself."
Jiang Xia walked up to him and looked down at the flashing signal dot on the screen.
This was the transmitter hidden in the ransom package, marking the kidnapper's current location. Suddenly, when it reached the center of the tunnel, the flashing red dot stopped.
"Hmm?" Inspector Megure was startled. "Could it be that the guy discovered our ambush and is afraid to go to the exit?"
The tunnel was dimly lit and narrow, and it was easy to hit other innocent vehicles if you rushed in. The kidnappers couldn't escape anyway, so Inspector Megure thought about it and decided to use this time to bring in more people to block both sides of the tunnel and guard it like an iron barrel.
One minute passed, two minutes passed, ten minutes passed...
Jiang Xia suddenly asked: "Could the kidnappers have already left?"
"!" Inspector Megure's heart skipped a beat, unwilling to admit this terrible possibility, "But, but we have guarded both sides very tightly. Unless he turns into a fly and flies away, he will definitely be seen."
Officer Sato felt that Jiang Xia was right: "Inspector, how about I take someone in to take a look?"
"..." Inspector Megure hesitated for a moment, "Okay then. But the terrain in the tunnel is not favorable, so you must pay attention to safety."
The police took their equipment and quietly moved to where the transmitter was located.
Five minutes later, a shiny transmitter was placed in front of Inspector Megure.
Mumu Police Department: "?"
Miwako Sato sighed, "We followed the location and found it was thrown on the ground in the tunnel - it seems that the kidnapper found and abandoned the transmitter, and then fled with the cash."
Inspector Megure was in a state of panic: "Didn't we see his car leaving the tunnel? Could it be that this guy disappeared out of thin air?"
The fat officer Chiba exclaimed, and suddenly had an idea: "Could it be that he left in another vehicle?"
Miwako Sato hesitated and said, "But his delivery truck is not in the tunnel either. None of the vehicles that just passed through were big enough to smuggle him out with his truck and his people."
“…”
The police looked at each other in bewilderment: a living person and a heavy car disappeared at the same time. Could it be... a ghost in broad daylight?
…
While the police were busy searching for "Jun Kataoka".
On the other side, the real Kataoka Junzheng, covered in dust and dirt, trotted out of the game room with a few classmates, intending to rush back to the hospital.
"I didn't expect my watch to be out of battery. No wonder this happy hour lasted so long." Kataoka Jun looked at the watch on his wrist and sighed, "It's already this time. It looks like I can't escape a scolding this time."
Yoshida Ayumi comforted him: "It's okay, Conan should be able to find a way to help you cover it up."
At this point, she suddenly remembered something and was a little confused: "Speaking of which, I remember you said you were going to have a checkup at 12 o'clock, but now it's past the time. Conan hasn't contacted us yet, did he get away with it?"
"How is that possible?" Kataoka Jun shook his head maturely. "He and I do look a bit similar, but if you look closely at me, I can't hide it from the nurses."
Yoshida Ayumi suddenly became worried: "What should we do now? Will Conan be scolded?"
Kataoka Jun raised his hand to stop a taxi: "Anyway, let's get back to the hospital as soon as possible."
…
Kataoka family.
After the ransom was taken, the kidnappers never contacted us again.
Kataoka's father gradually lost his composure. He grabbed Jiang Xia who was passing by and said, "We have already done what the kidnapper asked. Why won't he let us go? I remember you are a detective. Can you find out where Xiaochun is now?"
As a witness, Vodka was forced to follow enthusiastically: "..." Haha, you asked the right person.
However, others obviously did not think so. When Inspector Megure saw his proud brother being held back, he quickly ran over to grab the blame: "We will do our best, don't worry about it for now."
At this time, the young police officer who was out investigating came back and said, "Captain, we went to the Honey Bee Express Company to ask, and they said that all of their company's vehicles were on duty as usual today, and there were no vehicles that were acting abnormally."
"Really?" Inspector Megure was knowledgeable and quickly thought of another possibility, "Have they ever lost their car before?"
The young police officer had obviously asked this question before, and shook his head regretfully: "No."
Mumu Police Department: "..."
Next to him, Kataoka's father understood what was said and stood up suddenly: "So, there is no clue about the kidnappers now? What about my child?"
Inspector Megure: "..." Perhaps we can try to take a chance on the kidnapper's conscience...
Just as he was thinking about how to express this sentence tactfully, suddenly, his cell phone rang.
Inspector Megure was as if he had been pardoned, and escaped from this suffocating conversation by answering the phone. However, the next moment, after hearing the content of the phone call, he was stunned: "What did you say?!"
When Kataoka's father heard the policeman's shocked tone, he could no longer sit still: "What happened? Tell me! Is it my Xiaochun..."
"Xiaochun..." Inspector Megure put down his phone and took a deep breath, "He went back to the hospital by himself."
When Kataoka's father heard the good news, he collapsed back on the sofa and said, "Fortunately, the kidnapper kept his word."
Inspector Megure: "...But he said that he was not kidnapped. He just ran away with some classmates to the game hall to play games."
Kataoka’s father: “???”
…
Not long after, the hostage was taken back to Kataoka's home by police officers.
I thought I was going to be scolded, but I was only greeted with a big hug from Kataoka Jun: "......?"
"How are you?" After hugging him, Sachiko Ezaki looked him up and down nervously, "You are not hurt, are you?"
"We just went to the arcade to play games, how could we get hurt!" Kataoka Jun pushed her away, "Speaking of which, what is this kidnapping you're talking about?"
The adults looked at the children who were safe and sound and looked at each other in bewilderment: "..." Could it be that this was just a misunderstanding, and that some audacious scammer found out that the children went to the game hall, so he took advantage of the situation and made a lot of money from them?
Vodka looked at everyone present and smiled quietly: "..." Judging from the kidnapper's various actions, there must be his accomplice among these people - now that the wrong person has been exposed, is it still a long way for the kidnapper to send that little brat Conan to death?
