1128

Conan went out to purchase popular mystery novels in a bookstore, and by chance, he encountered two people (a man named Hayato Wakai and a woman named Chiaki Wakai) carrying a child, whose name was Kazuo Mimura. As they radiated gazes at each other, the child chucked a gachapon towards Conan. Opening the toy capsule, not only did Conan see a tiny Kamen Yaiba figurine inside, but also a piece of paper was visible. Unfolding it, Conan discovered that the child was being kidnapped, and the content on that paper was "HELP" (たすけて). After Conan interpreted the signal of crisis, he tailed the three of them and perused into a hotel, where in the hall of the hotel he learned the number of their booked hotel room. Then he knocked on the door of their room and dashed into the room. He pretended to return the gachapon dropped by Kazuo and pulled him into the bathroom. Within the bathroom, he briefly grasped the situation by asking Kazuo for some basic information. Yet he scrutinised the bathroom; there were absolutely no exits to the exterior. The circumstances outside of the bathroom were rather eminent; Hayato kept urging the two kids to get out of the bathroom. Conan had no other choice but to exchange clothes with Kazuo based on the fact that they possess similar appearances. This was the best approach to saving Kazuo from the kidnappers. And that's how Conan found himself sitting in the kidnappers' minivan. Conan persistently observed their behaviour in the back seat. He deduced that the two kidnappers were couples based on their rings on the ring finger. Conan also noticed some unknown stains on the back of the front seat. Apparently, the two kidnappers did not act so proficiently on the matter; they looked more like amateurs. Instead of plotting the abduction themselves, they supposedly read strings of instructions printed on a notepad, possibly written by somebody else. Just after that, Conan witnessed Hayato calling Kazuo's father, Masami Mimura, on a public telephone, per commands printed on the notepad. (Source: DCW Wiki)
