I think the fact that Thomas can deliver the papers on behalf of Vincent when he's sick is a clear indicator that they both live in same street then only it is justified that there's no other logical support for other choices.

First of all, the newspaper boys do not manufacture newspapers at home. So it is not necessary that Thomas needs to go Vincent home.
A newspaper boy should have to go first to the central location to collect newspapers. So we cannot assume that Thomas takes more time than Vincent.
There is no statement mentioned above that Thomas is not a regular distributing the newspapers.
The answer A is correct.

I hope it it should be B as as Thomas doesn't clearly know to which all houses he had to distribute the newspapers.
