Chapter IV

"Professor why don't we just use the extra tracking glasses to find Conan?"

It was Haibara who had said it. They had already called the police and they were on their way.

"He must have his badge with the transmitter in it. The glasses will lead us right to him. And speaking of the badge it also has that walkie talkie in it we can talk to him and make sure he's all right."

"That's a brilliant idea. Why didn't we think of that before?" said Ayumi.

"We should wait until the police get here before we do anything though," said the professor reasonably.

"Yeah, that would be a good idea. Even if we knew where he was we wouldn't be able to do anything about it."

The police arrived ten minutes later.

"So, where is this blood that you found?" asked Inspector Meguire.

"It's around the corner, but inspector," said the professor, "we know a way to find Conan."

"You do? How!"

They all explained about the tracking glasses and the badges.

When they were done the inspector said, "Well what are we waiting for let's find him!"

Haibara went to get the extra glasses. They turned the glasses on. There were many flashing lights. Haibara indicated the four lights in the middle.

"These four are from our badges." She looked at the lens, searching for another light. She had to increase the range a bit but there it was. "He's somewhere in the suburbs."

"Let's go. Haibara and professor Agasa will come with me, and Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Genta will go with detective Wilder back home," said the inspector.

"Hey how come we have to go back home but Haibara doesn't?" ranted Genta.

"Haibara lives with the professor, and the professor has to come to show us how to use the glassas. Haibara can't stay home by herself. You, on the other hand do not have a parent with you and need to be getting home. This is way to dangerous for children to be here alone. We need to find Conan. So if you want us to find him you'll cooperate so we can get him before something happens," said the inspector.

"Ok," said Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Genta sadly.

"Very good. Now let's get a move on!"

"Hairbara how much farther?" asked Inspector Meguire. They were driving down a small road out in the suburbs.

"You take this right up ahead onto 2nd street and it should be somewhere in the middle of that block."

"Ok that's good." As they turned the corner they saw a car driving away a couple blocks up the road. "Right here!" said Haibara.

The inspector picked up his radio speaker, "Attention all units, attention all units. The kidnappers are in house number 1029. Ready your weapons the criminals are most likely armed and dangerous. Be on your guard."

Slowly officers got out of their cars, weapons at the ready. Inspector Meguire went up and rapped sharply on the door. "Police open up!"

There was no answer. On the count of three the door was busted open.

The room was devoid of people. There was a cardboard box with blood in the bottom. And, in the middle of the room, sat a small backpack with a detective boys badge pinned to the strap, and a note saying, "You'll never find us."

This might be my last chapter for a while. I have exams in a couple of weeks. I hate exams! as if i am not stressed enough already! anyway enough with the ranting.
