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.

According to me, the answer should be both a and b, because in b, Thomas will take more time than Vincent to deliver the papers as it will take time by Vincent to contact Thomas to deliver the papers as he is sick.
