'''{{nihongo|Heiji Hattori|服部 平次|Hattori Heiji}}''', also known as '''Harley Hartwell''' in the Funimation dub, is an Osakan high school detective in the manga and anime series ''[[Detective Conan]]''. He is a childhood friend and the romantic interest of [[Kazuha Toyama]]. Originally a detective rival to [[Shinichi Kudo]], Heiji has since [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|found out]] [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s true identity and the two often team up to work on cases. He was the first person to ''deduce'' Conan's true identity.<br />
<br />
== Background ==<br />
[[File:Cuffed.png|thumb|left|200px|Heiji and Kazuha cuffed together as children.]]<br />
Heiji is a high school detective, and the son of [[Heizo Hattori]], chief of the Osaka Police Department, and his wife [[Shizuka Hattori]]. Heiji wants to be a detective like his father since spending his childhood looking for lost cats in his neighborhood, and he is also very skilled in kendo and has become a favored tournament contender for his school.<br />
<br />
At one time during their childhood, Heiji had had the unfortunate idea of locking himself and his friend [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] together with a set of old handcuffs which had no key to unlock it; as a result they involuntarily had to spend time together even on some rather intimate occasions (i.e., bathroom visits) before the cuffs could be removed. As a reminder of this 'closeness' and for good luck, Kazuha fashioned two identical lucky charms, each incorporating a chain link from the cuffs, which she and Heiji have been wearing ever since.<ref name=StabbedWallet>Manga Volume 19: Files 185 (Stabbed Wallet Case)</ref><br />
<br />
In the news, Heiji has been publicly declared the "Great Detective of the West", while [[Shinichi Kudo]] is the "Great Detective of the East". As a result, Heiji showed up unannounced at the Mouri Detective Agency looking for Kudo, seeking to challenge his rival to a showdown of wits. (In fact, they had such a contest before, three years previously, [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|during a skiing trip in the Yamagata prefecture]], although they never learned about each other's identities at that time.<ref>Manga Chapters 518-522: Yuki-Onna Murder Case</ref>) Heiji was soundly defeated in the following case after [[Conan Edogawa]] temporarily turned back into Shinichi, but he gained a lot of respect for Shinichi in the process.<ref>Manga Chapters 092-096: The Great Detective Of The West</ref><br />
<br />
During their second encounter, Conan knocked Heiji out to use him as the mouthpiece for the voice-changing bow-tie. But during his final presentation of the facts, Heiji awoke prematurely and discovered Conan's secret, and in the end managed to blackmail Conan into revealing all.<ref>Manga Chapters 121: The Holmes Freak Case: The Revelation</ref> Ever since that revelation, Heiji has been helping Conan in hiding his secret identity, though he constantly slips up by calling him "Kudo" in front of [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and Kazuha. <br />
<br />
Heiji and Conan most often congenially team up to solve assorted cases. Heiji has also helped Conan investigate the [[Black Organization]] on several occasions, such as when the two investigated [[Jodie Starling]],<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=34|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 2-7|language=English}}</ref> or when Heiji investigated [[Eisuke Hondou]] on his own and then told Conan his findings<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=56|chapter=Files 7|language=Japanese}}</ref>, but he never had a real direct confrontation with the primary antagonist. He has also helped cover for Conan during several of the brief instances where Conan regained his true adolescent age, and has even disguised himself as Shinichi on several occasions in order to protect his identity, even though he is not very good at it (mostly owing to his distinctive Kansai dialect). When not working on a case, he regularly attempts to invite Conan to take in the sights and culinary delights of Osaka, which he considers more wholesome than Tokyo's.<br />
{{clearleft}}<br />
<br />
== Personality ==<br />
Even while solving a case, Heiji tends to be lighthearted and good-humored, preferring to work through it with a grin on his face. He is a big fan of baseball, and is most of the time shown wearing an Osaka cap, to support the local Osaka baseball team. He usually wears his cap with its visor pointed backward, but if he feels challenged, he turns the visor forward.<br />
<br />
Heiji is known for his pride as an Osaka citizen and for his thick Osakan accent, which has been pointed out and sometimes made fun numerous times. However, Heiji holds his head high and is always one to brag about the greatness of Osaka, especially when Conan comes to visit. <br />
<br />
Despite him knowing the value and necessity of remaining calm in the face of a crime, Heiji tends to be impulsive at times, which tends to cloud his judgment a little. This was discussed directly in the "Detective Koushien" case, when [[Saguru Hakuba]] accused Heiji of being a poor detective for disrupting a crime scene in his rush to see if the victim could still be saved. Heiji, however, solved the case in the end, and reminded Saguru that the detective's first job is to prevent death if he can. Heiji is also known to be extremely protective of those he values as close friends, and tries hard to keep them out of harm. There are several instances where Hattori tells Kazuha to wait for him or leaves her behind in order to keep her from being involved in cases, simply because he's afraid of her getting hurt.<ref>Manga Volume 59, File 6, pg 6: Armored Warrior</ref><ref>Manga Volume 59, File 7, pg 11: Art of War</ref><ref name=653p3>Manga Volume 63, File 1, page 3: My Deduction</ref><br />
<br />
Furthermore, he's pretty much always watching Shinichi's back, and does whatever he can to not only keep Shinichi safe, but to keep his identity under cover. However, on one occasion Heiji advised Conan to tell the truth, when Ran had convinced herself that Conan was Shinichi and thus willingly gave him blood after being shot. <br />
<br />
Heiji occasionally enjoys teasing Shinichi's kid form. He has fun jokingly (sometimes mistakenly) calling Conan "Kudo" in front of Ran at his friend's expense. He often treats Conan/ Shinichi as a younger brother and their close relationship even evokes Kazuha's jealousy from time to time. In return Conan truly trusts and respects Heiji.<br />
<br />
Although he is very competitive when it comes to detective cases, when a case gets hot, he and Shinichi work effectively together. During Shinichi's first return to his high school during the play performance, Heiji had let him take the lead role in the investigations, saying that it was because they were in Tokyo, Shinichi's turf.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=26|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 1-7|language=English}}</ref> <br />
<br />
Although he frequently mocks Kazuha for her superstitions and enthusiasm for good-luck charms, Heiji has several times revealed that he puts more trust in them than he would admit. He once dreamed of Shinichi being murdered, and out subsequently insisted that Conan wear his omamori, the good luck charm Kazuha gave him. The omamori ended up saving Shinichi's life by deflecting a knife blow, but Heiji, without his usual protection, was shot in the stomach.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=19|chapter=Files 5-8|language=Japanese}}</ref> In another case, Ran hung a teruterubozu, a charm that's supposed to ensure good weather, in the window so that Conan would have good weather for his field trip the next day. Heiji, however, got up in the middle of the night to take down the teruterubozu so that Conan's field trip would be rained out and he could accompany Heiji on an investigation of the The Red Horse Among The Flames.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=39|language=Japanese}}</ref><br />
<br />
During the "Bond of Fire" case, Heiji questions Conan if they were right in stopping the culprit from committing suicide, leading to the latter responding that if a detective knows a criminal is about to commit suicide and does nothing to stop it, then the detective is no better than a murderer. Heiji takes to this heart, as evidenced by him stopping the serial murderer in the "Stabbed Wallet" case from committing suicide.<br />
<br />
His relationship with Shinichi/Conan from his end. In Heiji's first appearance, he traveled all the way to Tokyo to challenge Shinichi Kudo to a deduction battle so he could win and show he was the superior detective of the two. After Shinichi solves the case (which included correcting Heiji's wrong assumptions), the Tokyoite detective then gives a short speech to the Osakan that there's no such thing as the superior or inferior detective, only the truth; Heiji is left both speechless and amazed. Throughout his subsequent appearances,(which involved deducing "Conan's" real identity), Heiji may have kept his competitiveness towards his fellow detective, but he now considers Shinichi/Conan to be his partner and best friend, willing to do anything to ensure his happiness and safety.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Appearance ==<br />
[[File:vlcsnap-2013-09-20-15h27m58s194.png|thumb|right|200px|Heiji talks about his skin color in movie 7.]]<br />
Heiji is a handsome man with dark brown, spiky hair and dark brown skin which he claims is inherited from his grandfather.<ref>Chapter 278</ref> His eyes are blue in the manga (like every character). Initially, his eyes appeared dark green, but are now blue<ref>Episode 710</ref>. He speaks with a strong Kansai Ben accent, which is typical of the Osaka region. Since Heiji is so strongly accustomed to this accent, his lingual habit can be a disadvantage at times, especially when he has to impersonate someone who uses standard Japanese.<ref>[[Volume 26# School Play Case|Manga Chapter 256: ''Concealed Truth'']]</ref><ref>OVA 06: ''[[Follow the Vanished Diamond! Conan & Heiji vs. Kid!]]''</ref> He has a scar behind the left ear from being hit during an Oyodo competition as said in episode 263.<br />
<br />
He has also been shown to be popular with girls due to his good looks, position as kendo captain at his high school, and his fame as a high school detective. For example, in episode 263 when several girls tried to flirt with him but he had switched his gear with another team member to make a last minute call to Conan to visit his match. This was shown in Magic File 4: The Osaka Okonomiyaki Killer where several girls came to ask for an autograph and in [[OVA 9]], he was referred to as a lady killer.<br />
{{clear}}<br />
<br />
== Skills ==<br />
=== Keen Intellect ===<br />
Heiji's detective skills are the same as Shinichi's. Because of his skills, Heiji has acquired his nickname "The Great Detective Of The West." Like Shinichi, he has a keen eye for details, and can spot any unusual aspects in a case that most people tend to ignore or not take into account and has extraordinarily broad and deep knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to recall every detail of an investigation, and may have a photographic memory to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Heiji's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony. However, unlike Shinichi, Heiji seem to be more competitive and hot-blooded while solving a case, which sometimes leads him into making a wrong deduction [[Diplomat Murder Case|i.e. the case in his first appearance.]] Like the other "genius" detectives, Heiji has shown himself to have an eidetic memory, capable of remembering complex letter and number sequences at only a glance, such as when he was able to solve a code in his head during the "Heiji and Kazuha in Grave Danger" arc, and even reproduce another message using the same code to text to Conan. When Heiji and Shinichi work together, they're each other's equal and will often arrive at the same conclusions. But when they compete with each other or their deductions differ, Shinichi usually wins. Recent cases have begun to subvert this, but usually only with subjects Heiji specializes in - e.g. kendo. He is also good if it comes to someone who has his own dialect, Kansai dialect.<br />
<br />
=== Athletic ability ===<br />
Heiji is the fifth position, or taisho, and captain of his high school Kendo team. Heiji may disable criminals using an improvised bokken similar to how Conan uses his soccer skills. Heiji is also very nimble, able to jump higher than a bookshelf, seamlessly scale the side of the staircase, and balance perfectly on a katana. This is shown in episode 263 of the anime, when Kotegawa tries to kill him.<br />
<br />
=== Others ===<br />
Heiji is also a capable motorcycle rider. He also speaks fluent English.<ref>[[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective]]</ref> Heiji has shown to have the ability to deduce a woman's swimsuit without actually looking at it.<ref>[[Solitary Island of the Princess and the Dragon King's Palace]]</ref> He is also shown to have a "Kudou Radar" where he correctly guessed Conan's involvement in the case without actually seeing Conan.<ref>[[Furinkazan]]</ref><br />

== Plot overview ==<br />
=== Great Detective of the West (Manga: [[Volume 10#Great Detective of the_West|92-96]], Anime: [[Diplomat Murder Case|48-49]]) ===<br />
One day, Conan (using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|Voice-Changer Tie]] to imitate [[Shinichi Kudo|his old voice]]) calls [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] to tell her once again that he is all right and that he is still stuck with the 'special case' when Ran hangs up on him as someone has just entered the detective agency. Coming home, Conan finds to his surprise that the 'customer' is a youth who keeps demanding to see Shinichi Kudo. He had read of Kogoro solving cases and jumps to the conclusion that he is getting help from Shinichi. When Ran mentions that Shinichi has just called, without asking about Ran's state, the youth deduces that Shinichi must actually be nearby, watching Ran from afar. He then introduces himself as high school detective Heiji Hattori and presents a gift, a bottle of [[baijiu]], of which he gives Conan a swig. Just then, Kimie Tsujimura, the wife of a known diplomat, enters [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]]'s office to ask him to investigate the girlfriend of her son. In order to be inconspicuous, Kogoro takes Ran and Conan along, and Heiji, hoping to flush out Shinichi, tags along as well. What is originally meant to be a simple investigation job turns out to be a murder case, as they find Kimie's husband slain at his desk.<br />
<br />
=== Holmes Freak Case (Manga: [[Volume 12#Holmes Freak Case|117-121]], Anime: [[Holmes Freak Murder Case|57-58]]) ===<br />
After this first case, it only takes one more run-in with Conan to get Heiji thinking about the similarities between Conan and Shinichi. It is on the "[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]" that Heiji, despite professing a preference for [[Wikipedia: Ellery Queen|Ellery Queen]], exercises the Holmesian axiom: "When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." In addition, after Conan had [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|knocked him out]] to use him as his mouthpiece to present his evidence, Heiji receives a clout on the head from [[Kogoro Mouri]], which wakes him up again, and from the corner of his eye he spies Conan standing behind him and using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie]] to mimic his voice; he thus discovers Conan's secret, which forces Conan to explain his situation.<br />
<br />
=== Bond of Fire Case (Manga: [[Volume 15#Bond of Fire Case|150-153]], Anime: [[Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case|77-78]]) ===<br />
On their third case together, Conan was initially irritated to see Heiji, but they quickly formed a strong team. Together they cornered the murderer and even took steps to preventing the suicide she had planned. When she realizes that she won't be able to kill herself she weeps piteously, causing Heiji to whisper to Conan, "perhaps we should have let her die." Conan replies that "a detective who corners a murderer with logic and then lets them commit suicide is no better than a murderer."<br />
<br />
=== Mystery Writer Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Mystery Writer Case|183]], Anime: [[The Mystery Writer Disappearance Case|117]]) ===<br />
Heiji calls Conan having deciphered the text in the first new chapter, and with this information Conan manages to solve the rest of the hidden riddles.<br />
<br />
=== Stabbed Wallet Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Stabbed Wallet Case|185-188]], Anime: [[The Naniwa Serial Murder Case|118]]) ===<br />
Heiji invites Conan (and [[Kogoro Mouri]] and [[Ran Mouri]], because otherwise it'd look suspicious) to Osaka. It is revealed by [[Kazuha Toyama]] (in her first appearance) that Heiji has been talking about 'Kudo' so often that Kazuha thought 'Kudo' was his new Tokyo girlfriend. Heiji suggests that the reason he invited Conan to Osaka is because he has been worried about Conan's safety; he has had dreams of Conan being murdered. On a case together in Osaka, Heiji gives Conan his omamori, which ends up saving his life by deflecting a knife thrust. However, without it Heiji is injured while trying to prevent the murderer from committing suicide. In the ambulance, he reveals to Conan that he has taken to heart Conan's admonishment.<br />
<br />
=== Wedding Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 21#Wedding Murder Case|211-214]], Anime: [[The Night Before the Wedding Locked Room Case|141-142]]) ===<br />
Heiji and Kazuha visit Tokyo accompanied by Kogoro, Ran, and Conan. They run into Heiji's father's friend and are invited to their mansion. There a murder occurs and his father's friend is found dead in a locked room. It seems he was dragged to another room after being stabbed in the heart. Continuing the investigation, Heiji proclaims the butler was the murderer and he is taken away, screaming his innocence. Late that night, an unknown man takes the murder weapon and tries to place it in a bag, but is caught by Heiji and Conan who reveal that they placed the blame on the butler to lure out the true culprit. The culprit is revealed to be Kikuhito Morizono. He reveals that he murdered the man because he tried to cancel the wedding and take his love away from him.<br />
<br />
=== Cruise Ship Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 23#Cruise Ship Murder Case|225-230]], Anime: [[The Twenty Year Old Murderous Intent: The Symphony Serial Murder Case|174]]) ===<br />
In this episode, Heiji meets up once again with Conan and the gang on an overnight cruise in Tokyo. Unfortunately, instead of being able to spend a relaxing day on board, a serial murder case is created, leaving Heiji and Conan to work together to solve it. After they gather much of the evidence of the murder cases, Heiji and Conan share their deductions with each other only to find that, once again, their deductions are different. Heiji tries to beat Conan to the truth and goes off on his own to investigate. When he happens to come across the final piece of evidence that disproves both his and Conan's deductions, he is attacked and thrown overboard into the ocean. Later, Conan realizes that he's missing and is extremely concerned.<br />
<br />
=== Spider Mansion Case (Manga: [[Volume 25#Spider Mansion Case|246-250]], Anime: [[Tottori Spider Mansion Demon|166-168]]) ===<br />
Kogoro and Heiji are hired to solve a murder case in a mansion supposedly haunted by a spider demon. Heiji and Kazuha, on their way to the mansion, find one of the residents who is also lost: an American named Robert Taylor who is a photographer. The three are picked up by Kogoro and co. in a truck. Apparently, the spider god's victims are always found hanged. During their stay, they find a hanged man surrounded by web-like strings. The case continues, and Conan and Heiji investigate further in the case. Conan and Heiji cooperate to reveal the murderer's identity and his trick.<br />
<br />
=== The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume 26|254-258]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|189-192]])===<br />
[[File:190 heiji as shinichi.JPG|thumb|right|200px| Heiji attempting to disguise himself as Shinichi to alleviate Ran's suspicions.]]<br />
Ran is cast in a school play. While discussing the play with her friends backstage, Conan shows up wearing a face mask due to a cold. During a romantic scene, a man in the audience falls dead, seemingly by potassium cyanide, as revealed by a young man in the audience who appears to be Shinichi Kudo. This is quickly debunked, as Kazuha recognizes Heiji in disguise, and the real Shinichi has shown up anyway. Heiji originally planned on disguising as Shinichi in order to clear Ran's suspicions that Conan and Shinichi were one and the same, and was unaware that Shinichi would take the antidote with Haibara present in disguise as Conan.<br />
<br />
=== Old Photograph Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 28#Old Photograph Murder Case|278]], Anime: [[The Client Full of Lies|221]]) ===<br />
A woman named Shizuka Ikenami asks Kogoro to help find a man named Shiro Shibata so she could retrieve an old photograph; Conan realizes that the Ikenami is lying to Kogoro when she introduces herself for unknown reasons. After Conan solved the case, Heiji and Kazuha arrive and reveal that Shizuka Ikenami is actually Heiji's mother. Shizuka confesses and tells Kogoro that she wanted to see what kind of person he was since Heiji was injured the last time he stayed over. <br />
<br />
=== Mermaid's Curse Case (Manga: [[Volume 28#Mermaid's Curse Case|279-283]], Anime: [[And Then There Were No Mermaids|222-224]]) ===<br />
Heiji along with Conan, Ran, and Kogoro visit the Isle of Mermaids looking for Saori, who had sent a letter to Heiji and Kogoro asking them to save her from being killed by a mermaid, but when they try to look for her she has been reported missing. Conan and Heiji investigate the area and history of Mermaids Grave, a forest on the island. They learn that an elder who is over 130 years old is a holder of the arrow and the head of the festival. While investigating, three murders occur. Conan reveals to Heiji he knows who the murderer is and to meet him later, but later he and Kazuha fall off a cliff. Kazuha attempts to save Heiji by stabbing him with an arrow so that he would let go of her and save himself, but Heiji persists and ends up saving both Kazuha and himself in the end.<br />
<br />
=== K3 Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 29#K3 Murder Case|293-295]], Anime: [[The 3 "K"s of Osaka Case|238-239]]) ===<br />
At the Mouri Detective Agency, Conan is on the phone talking to Heiji about the much publicised K3 Restaurant's opening party. Heiji's parents got invited but they both got colds and are unable to attend. Heiji decides to invite Conan, Ran, and Kogoro to come to the party. Three famous athletes from America are going to be there also. Once Heiji tells Conan who the three athletes are, Conan accepts the invitation.

After Jodie agrees to go out for a while with Heiji and Conan, the man living next door to Jodie falls dead outside from over 30 stories coincidentally as the three step outside. After the police arrive, it seems likely that the man committed suicide. However, Conan and Heiji have their doubts. Heiji immediately destroys the theory of suicide by showing that the man who fell from his apartment attempted to grab onto a curtain to save his life. Conan and Heiji reveal the truth by showing how the room was switched around so that when the man was drunken he would expect to be stepping out onto the balcony, but instead would wind up falling. After they solve the case, Heiji asks Jodie who she is. In reply, Jodie asks Heiji the same question. When Conan and Heiji leave, they concur that Jodie is suspicious but innocuous.

They investigate those with the surname Ito but are unable to find information about Heiji. Meanwhile, it is revealed Heiji is held hostage by Misari Ito, an attorney who is the head of a tax evasion group. Ito demands Heiji to solve a code made by Kasukawa which contains a seven-digit-code to a safe box containing evidence of her scandal. While held at gunpoint, Heiji sends a modified version of the code to Kogoro and asks him to solve it. Conan manages to solve the code, realizing that K, Q, and J stand for King, Queen, and Jack and replaces them with numbers accordingly. When Heiji receives the code back from Kogoro, he tells Misari he will tell her the seven digits and they head to the bank. Conan realizes the last three digits are actually letters and realizes what Heiji is trying to tell him and replies a modified code. Heiji tells Misari Ito he will tell her the seven digits and they head to the bank. Heiji reveals that the numbers, if placed in a 3 by 3 diagram, will create a diagram of a dice with the 1's representing the dots on a dice.

Humorously, all the cases that appeared to be linked to a serial killer, were not connected at all. It was all done to lessen the suspicion on the culprit's true intention of murder. During their conversation, Heiji invited Kogoro and Conan to assist him in a new case that he wished to solve. They keep a close watch on the house whose occupant had asked for their assistance, even after the one who requested them declined the service. They kept surveillance for a long time until Ran called and asked them to hurry back home for dinner. Just as they left, the house went up in flames, along with a red horse. The woman who had asked them for help was burnt to death.

A famous actor was murdered, but was told to have committed suicide.

Heiji, along with Ran, Kogoro and Kazuha, finds Shinichi with his memory completely erased, during a village trip. They are also surprised to find that almost everyone in the village seems to hate Shinichi, due to a supposedly 'stupid' and 'flawed' solution he gave about the deaths of the local leader and his wife, one year ago. A news reporter, who was present to cover the original case, accuses Shinichi of faking the memory loss and states that she knows the 'truth' about him. The next morning, the reporter is found stabbed, with no one but Shinichi in the house, and a knife with him, turning him into the one and only suspect. <br />
<br />
Heiji takes it upon himself to both prove Shinichi's innocence and hide him from the police, helped by Ran, Kogoro and Kazuha. He skilfully proves that the culprit had undergone cosmetic surgery, to impersonate Shinichi and commit a crime to destroy his reputation. The real Shinichi, too, turns up (after mistakenly ingesting [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]]'s APTX 4869 antidote prototype) to justify his deductions about the year-old double deaths.<br />
<br />
After the antidote's effects start wearing off, Heiji tries to prevent Shinichi from turning into Conan in front of Ran, by taking him to the toilet and asking him to hide in his (Heiji's) travel bag, so that he can make up some story about the disappearance and get him home.<br />

== Non-canon plot overview ==<br />
<br />
== Relationships analysis ==<br />
=== Kazuha Toyama ===<br />
{{main|Heiji Hattori and Kazuha Toyama}}<br />
Like Shinichi's relationship with Ran, Heiji's relationship with [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] is a very close one: they know each other since their childhoods, and have stayed close through the years. Their relationship is identified as a romantic one by other characters and fans alike, even though they claim that they don't have that sort of relationship or feelings for each other. Heiji is clueless when it comes to love and in the majority of the manga and anime has not yet realized he has actual feelings for Kazuha, until recently. On the class trip where Ran and Shinichi almost share a kiss, Heiji is explicitly jealous, all the while thinking of Kazuha, even saying “[he’s] running out of places to confess.” While it’s unknown when he plans on confessing, it is clear that Heiji loves Kazuha. It has been shown that he becomes visibly jealous when he sees Kazuha with other guys, becoming distracted throughout the whole case. At one point, after a certain case, while looking at Kazuha, his thoughts read: 'Fool. You're too naive. I promise you, as long as you're with me, I'll never let anyone hurt you.'. Kazuha knows she has feelings for Heiji, as she shows this by being protective and chasing off other women that might have a interest in him In on of the mangas Kazuha attempts to confess her feelings after finding out that Shinichi had done so with Ran, but is unlucky because by telling him, Heiji ran off to tease Conan(Shinichi) for it. She one time even attempted to sacrifice herself to save Heiji during a case in which accidentally both fell off a cliff. When the branch that Heiji was holding and both of them were hanging on to was breaking, she stabbed his hand with an arrow of love to prevent him from falling and force him to let her fall; however, he still held on despite the wound. Also, they have a similar situation to Ran and Shinichi, being childhood friends that have romantic feelings for each other and have similar backgrounds. Heiji is a teenage detective and she is a police detective's daughter, like Ran is a detective's daughter and Shinichi is a teenage detective. They are even called the 'Ran and Shinichi of Osaka' by fans of the series, since they're so similar. Although they are constantly fighting, they both are very close friends. It is also shown in the seventh movie, ''[[Crossroad in the Ancient Capital]]'', that Kazuha is Heiji's first love, though he didn't know it was her at the time. In the most recent case, Heiji confessed to Kazuha when she was taken away by some suspicious men, saying "What are you doing to my Kazuha?!". When Kazuha questioned him about it, he claimed that she was wrong and there was no evidence that proves his confession (although Shinichi recorded it). Nonetheless, it is shown in the file 912 that he has actually realized his feelings for her, as Ran questions him about the confession. He denies it to her, but thinks that he needed a more important place to confess, as Kudo confessed in front of the Big Ben.<br />
<br />
=== Shinichi Kudo/Conan Edogawa ===<br />
[[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]<br />
His sharp intellect helped Heiji quickly figure out Conan's real identity as Shinichi. Heiji acts rather brotherly towards [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]], even going so far as to pretend to be him on various occasions so that no one figures out that Shinichi and Conan are the same person. Of course, this might also be to make up for all the times Heiji calls him Kudo, which has nearly given Shinichi away multiple times. Heiji is concerned for Shinichi when he gets into trouble and life-or-death situations. They are as close as real brothers, both being detectives who have romantic feelings for their childhood friends. When they're caught solving a case together, it's not unusual for their minds to move in sync; because of this and several other factors, they maintain a sort of friendly rivalry with each other. However, they are both all business when a case gets serious. Heiji has, on several occasions, declared himself to be Shinichi's best friend.<ref>English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective</ref> He also becomes extremely determined to one-up Shinichi's London confession to Ran by creating an even better setting to one day confess his love to his childhood friend, Kazuha.<br />
<br />
Even with his teasing, Heiji genuinely wants Shinichi (Conan) and Ran to become a couple. He once suggested that Shinichi tell Ran the truth about the Black Organization to ease both of their suffering.<br />
<br />
=== Ran Mouri ===<br />
Heiji and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] are very good friends, bonding after Heiji's many trips to Tokyo because he "misses Conan". Ran respects Heiji as a very skilled detective who reminds her of Shinichi, but whenever Heiji and Kazuha run into an argument, Ran seems to take Kazuha's side.<br />
<br />
Since Heiji knows that Ran is Shinichi's Girlfriend, he tends to tease Shinichi about her quite often and will give him advice on his romantic relationship with her. He is also sometimes protective of her for the sake of Shinichi, such as when [[Soshi Okita]] flirted with Ran and he told him to back off since she is "his friend's girl" referring to Shinichi.<ref>Episode 916</ref> Since it's practically identical with his relationship with Kazuha (Even though they aren't on the same level as Shinichi & Ran's romantic relationship).<br />
<br />
Heiji almost views Ran as a sister, as he will tease her from time to time and he'll help explain things to her during cases along with Kazuha.<br />
<br />
=== Heizo Hattori ===<br />
Heiji wants to become a detective, and his [[Heizo Hattori|father]] is very supportive of this, helping him solve tough cases. However, his father prefers a "tough love" approach, though mostly for the sole purpose of using Heiji to lure out a suspect.<ref>Episode 263</ref><br />
<br />
=== Shizuka Hattori ===<br />
[[Shizuka Hattori|Shizuka]] is Heiji's mother and he sometimes calls her an "old lady".<br />
<br />
=== Kogoro Mouri ===<br />
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] respects him a little as a detective, but due to Heiji being the better detective, he seems to get annoyed whenever Heiji is with him while solving cases.<br />
<br />
=== Goro Otaki ===<br />
[[Goro Otaki|Otaki]] and Heiji are very good friends.<br />
<br />
=== Juzo Megure ===<br />
Usually [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] gets a little annoyed whenever Heiji runs into a case he is handling. He often tells Kogoro to not to lose to an outsider like Heiji. Despite this, Megure respects Heiji as a very skilled detective, and he has even declared Heiji as a better detective than Shinichi.<br />
<br />
=== Momiji Ooka ===<br />
[[Momiji Ooka|Momiji]] is close to her "future husband" Heiji. According to the 21st movie (which has yet to be contradicted by the manga / anime), they met as children and played karuta together. Heiji made a "pinky promise" with her about playing more later, which Momiji mistook as a marriage proposal. Unbeknownst to Heiji, Momiji held on the promise for several years, firmly believing that they are destined to be together.<br />
However, despite Momiji's feelings for Heiji, he does not reciprocate them most likely because of his feelings for Kazuha.<br />

== Trivia ==<br />
* In OVA 9, Heiji and Kazuha are asked, "When are you two getting married?" However, this can be dismissed as it was all part of Conan's dream.<br />
* Heiji's favorite author is Ellery Queen.<br />
* In File 1020 (part 3 of the Fairy's Lips Heist), it's mentioned that Heiji can't stand air conditioners, and can't sleep without a fan on.<br />
* It has become the series' trope that Heiji (and sometimes Kazuha) often appear in long cases (more than three chapters) setting in isolated and remote locations. Their entries are often mentioned at the end of the preceding case as well.<br />
*He usually wears his cap with its visor pointed backward, but during a case, he turns the visor forward. At the end of whatever case he's on, Heiji turn the visor backwards again.<br />

'''{{nihongo|Heiji Hattori|服部 平次|Hattori Heiji}}''', also known as '''Harley Hartwell''' in the Funimation dub, is an Osakan high school detective in the manga and anime series ''[[Detective Conan]]''. He is a childhood friend and the romantic interest of [[Kazuha Toyama]]. Originally a detective rival to [[Shinichi Kudo]], Heiji has since [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|found out]] [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s true identity and the two often team up to work on cases. He was the first person to ''deduce'' Conan's true identity.<br />
<br />
== Background ==<br />
[[File:Cuffed.png|thumb|left|200px|Heiji and Kazuha cuffed together as children.]]<br />
Heiji is a high school detective, and the son of [[Heizo Hattori]], chief of the Osaka Police Department, and his wife [[Shizuka Hattori]]. Heiji wants to be a detective like his father since spending his childhood looking for lost cats in his neighborhood, and he is also very skilled in kendo and has become a favored tournament contender for his school.<br />
<br />
At one time during their childhood, Heiji had had the unfortunate idea of locking himself and his friend [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] together with a set of old handcuffs which had no key to unlock it; as a result they involuntarily had to spend time together even on some rather intimate occasions (i.e., bathroom visits) before the cuffs could be removed. As a reminder of this 'closeness' and for good luck, Kazuha fashioned two identical lucky charms, each incorporating a chain link from the cuffs, which she and Heiji have been wearing ever since.<ref name=StabbedWallet>Manga Volume 19: Files 185 (Stabbed Wallet Case)</ref><br />
<br />
In the news, Heiji has been publicly declared the "Great Detective of the West", while [[Shinichi Kudo]] is the "Great Detective of the East". As a result, Heiji showed up unannounced at the Mouri Detective Agency looking for Kudo, seeking to challenge his rival to a showdown of wits. (In fact, they had such a contest before, three years previously, [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|during a skiing trip in the Yamagata prefecture]], although they never learned about each other's identities at that time.<ref>Manga Chapters 518-522: Yuki-Onna Murder Case</ref>) Heiji was soundly defeated in the following case after [[Conan Edogawa]] temporarily turned back into Shinichi, but he gained a lot of respect for Shinichi in the process.<ref>Manga Chapters 092-096: The Great Detective Of The West</ref><br />
<br />
During their second encounter, Conan knocked Heiji out to use him as the mouthpiece for the voice-changing bow-tie. But during his final presentation of the facts, Heiji awoke prematurely and discovered Conan's secret, and in the end managed to blackmail Conan into revealing all.<ref>Manga Chapters 121: The Holmes Freak Case: The Revelation</ref> Ever since that revelation, Heiji has been helping Conan in hiding his secret identity, though he constantly slips up by calling him "Kudo" in front of [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and Kazuha. <br />
<br />
Heiji and Conan most often congenially team up to solve assorted cases. Heiji has also helped Conan investigate the [[Black Organization]] on several occasions, such as when the two investigated [[Jodie Starling]],<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=34|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 2-7|language=English}}</ref> or when Heiji investigated [[Eisuke Hondou]] on his own and then told Conan his findings<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=56|chapter=Files 7|language=Japanese}}</ref>, but he never had a real direct confrontation with the primary antagonist. He has also helped cover for Conan during several of the brief instances where Conan regained his true adolescent age, and has even disguised himself as Shinichi on several occasions in order to protect his identity, even though he is not very good at it (mostly owing to his distinctive Kansai dialect). When not working on a case, he regularly attempts to invite Conan to take in the sights and culinary delights of Osaka, which he considers more wholesome than Tokyo's.<br />
{{clearleft}}<br />
<br />
== Personality ==<br />
Even while solving a case, Heiji tends to be lighthearted and good-humored, preferring to work through it with a grin on his face. He is a big fan of baseball, and is most of the time shown wearing an Osaka cap, to support the local Osaka baseball team. He usually wears his cap with its visor pointed backward, but if he feels challenged, he turns the visor forward.<br />
<br />
Heiji is known for his pride as an Osaka citizen and for his thick Osakan accent, which has been pointed out and sometimes made fun numerous times. However, Heiji holds his head high and is always one to brag about the greatness of Osaka, especially when Conan comes to visit. <br />
<br />
Despite him knowing the value and necessity of remaining calm in the face of a crime, Heiji tends to be impulsive at times, which tends to cloud his judgment a little. This was discussed directly in the "Detective Koushien" case, when [[Saguru Hakuba]] accused Heiji of being a poor detective for disrupting a crime scene in his rush to see if the victim could still be saved. Heiji, however, solved the case in the end, and reminded Saguru that the detective's first job is to prevent death if he can. Heiji is also known to be extremely protective of those he values as close friends, and tries hard to keep them out of harm. There are several instances where Hattori tells Kazuha to wait for him or leaves her behind in order to keep her from being involved in cases, simply because he's afraid of her getting hurt.<ref>Manga Volume 59, File 6, pg 6: Armored Warrior</ref><ref>Manga Volume 59, File 7, pg 11: Art of War</ref><ref name=653p3>Manga Volume 63, File 1, page 3: My Deduction</ref><br />
<br />
Furthermore, he's pretty much always watching Shinichi's back, and does whatever he can to not only keep Shinichi safe, but to keep his identity under cover. However, on one occasion Heiji advised Conan to tell the truth, when Ran had convinced herself that Conan was Shinichi and thus willingly gave him blood after being shot. <br />
<br />
Heiji occasionally enjoys teasing Shinichi's kid form. He has fun jokingly (sometimes mistakenly) calling Conan "Kudo" in front of Ran at his friend's expense. He often treats Conan/ Shinichi as a younger brother and their close relationship even evokes Kazuha's jealousy from time to time. In return Conan truly trusts and respects Heiji.<br />
<br />
Although he is very competitive when it comes to detective cases, when a case gets hot, he and Shinichi work effectively together. During Shinichi's first return to his high school during the play performance, Heiji had let him take the lead role in the investigations, saying that it was because they were in Tokyo, Shinichi's turf.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=26|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 1-7|language=English}}</ref> <br />
<br />
Although he frequently mocks Kazuha for her superstitions and enthusiasm for good-luck charms, Heiji has several times revealed that he puts more trust in them than he would admit. He once dreamed of Shinichi being murdered, and out subsequently insisted that Conan wear his omamori, the good luck charm Kazuha gave him. The omamori ended up saving Shinichi's life by deflecting a knife blow, but Heiji, without his usual protection, was shot in the stomach.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=19|chapter=Files 5-8|language=Japanese}}</ref> In another case, Ran hung a teruterubozu, a charm that's supposed to ensure good weather, in the window so that Conan would have good weather for his field trip the next day. Heiji, however, got up in the middle of the night to take down the teruterubozu so that Conan's field trip would be rained out and he could accompany Heiji on an investigation of the The Red Horse Among The Flames.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=39|language=Japanese}}</ref><br />
<br />
During the "Bond of Fire" case, Heiji questions Conan if they were right in stopping the culprit from committing suicide, leading to the latter responding that if a detective knows a criminal is about to commit suicide and does nothing to stop it, then the detective is no better than a murderer. Heiji takes to this heart, as evidenced by him stopping the serial murderer in the "Stabbed Wallet" case from committing suicide.<br />
<br />
His relationship with Shinichi/Conan from his end. In Heiji's first appearance, he traveled all the way to Tokyo to challenge Shinichi Kudo to a deduction battle so he could win and show he was the superior detective of the two. After Shinichi solves the case (which included correcting Heiji's wrong assumptions), the Tokyoite detective then gives a short speech to the Osakan that there's no such thing as the superior or inferior detective, only the truth; Heiji is left both speechless and amazed. Throughout his subsequent appearances,(which involved deducing "Conan's" real identity), Heiji may have kept his competitiveness towards his fellow detective, but he now considers Shinichi/Conan to be his partner and best friend, willing to do anything to ensure his happiness and safety.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Appearance ==<br />
[[File:vlcsnap-2013-09-20-15h27m58s194.png|thumb|right|200px|Heiji talks about his skin color in movie 7.]]<br />
Heiji is a handsome man with dark brown, spiky hair and dark brown skin which he claims is inherited from his grandfather.<ref>Chapter 278</ref> His eyes are blue in the manga (like every character). Initially, his eyes appeared dark green, but are now blue<ref>Episode 710</ref>. He speaks with a strong Kansai Ben accent, which is typical of the Osaka region. Since Heiji is so strongly accustomed to this accent, his lingual habit can be a disadvantage at times, especially when he has to impersonate someone who uses standard Japanese.<ref>[[Volume 26# School Play Case|Manga Chapter 256: ''Concealed Truth'']]</ref><ref>OVA 06: ''[[Follow the Vanished Diamond! Conan & Heiji vs. Kid!]]''</ref> He has a scar behind the left ear from being hit during an Oyodo competition as said in episode 263.<br />
<br />
He has also been shown to be popular with girls due to his good looks, position as kendo captain at his high school, and his fame as a high school detective. For example, in episode 263 when several girls tried to flirt with him but he had switched his gear with another team member to make a last minute call to Conan to visit his match. This was shown in Magic File 4: The Osaka Okonomiyaki Killer where several girls came to ask for an autograph and in [[OVA 9]], he was referred to as a lady killer.<br />
{{clear}}<br />
<br />
== Skills ==<br />
=== Keen Intellect ===<br />
Heiji's detective skills are the same as Shinichi's. Because of his skills, Heiji has acquired his nickname "The Great Detective Of The West." Like Shinichi, he has a keen eye for details, and can spot any unusual aspects in a case that most people tend to ignore or not take into account and has extraordinarily broad and deep knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to recall every detail of an investigation, and may have a photographic memory to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Heiji's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony. However, unlike Shinichi, Heiji seem to be more competitive and hot-blooded while solving a case, which sometimes leads him into making a wrong deduction [[Diplomat Murder Case|i.e. the case in his first appearance.]] Like the other "genius" detectives, Heiji has shown himself to have an eidetic memory, capable of remembering complex letter and number sequences at only a glance, such as when he was able to solve a code in his head during the "Heiji and Kazuha in Grave Danger" arc, and even reproduce another message using the same code to text to Conan. When Heiji and Shinichi work together, they're each other's equal and will often arrive at the same conclusions. But when they compete with each other or their deductions differ, Shinichi usually wins. Recent cases have begun to subvert this, but usually only with subjects Heiji specializes in - e.g. kendo. He is also good if it comes to someone who has his own dialect, Kansai dialect.<br />
<br />
=== Athletic ability ===<br />
Heiji is the fifth position, or taisho, and captain of his high school Kendo team. Heiji may disable criminals using an improvised bokken similar to how Conan uses his soccer skills. Heiji is also very nimble, able to jump higher than a bookshelf, seamlessly scale the side of the staircase, and balance perfectly on a katana. This is shown in episode 263 of the anime, when Kotegawa tries to kill him.<br />
<br />
=== Others ===<br />
Heiji is also a capable motorcycle rider. He also speaks fluent English.<ref>[[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective]]</ref> Heiji has shown to have the ability to deduce a woman's swimsuit without actually looking at it.<ref>[[Solitary Island of the Princess and the Dragon King's Palace]]</ref> He is also shown to have a "Kudou Radar" where he correctly guessed Conan's involvement in the case without actually seeing Conan.<ref>[[Furinkazan]]</ref><br />

== Plot overview ==<br />
=== Great Detective of the West (Manga: [[Volume 10#Great Detective of the_West|92-96]], Anime: [[Diplomat Murder Case|48-49]]) ===<br />
One day, Conan (using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|Voice-Changer Tie]] to imitate [[Shinichi Kudo|his old voice]]) calls [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] to tell her once again that he is all right and that he is still stuck with the 'special case' when Ran hangs up on him as someone has just entered the detective agency. Coming home, Conan finds to his surprise that the 'customer' is a youth who keeps demanding to see Shinichi Kudo. He had read of Kogoro solving cases and jumps to the conclusion that he is getting help from Shinichi. When Ran mentions that Shinichi has just called, without asking about Ran's state, the youth deduces that Shinichi must actually be nearby, watching Ran from afar. He then introduces himself as high school detective Heiji Hattori and presents a gift, a bottle of [[baijiu]], of which he gives Conan a swig. Just then, Kimie Tsujimura, the wife of a known diplomat, enters [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]]'s office to ask him to investigate the girlfriend of her son. In order to be inconspicuous, Kogoro takes Ran and Conan along, and Heiji, hoping to flush out Shinichi, tags along as well. What is originally meant to be a simple investigation job turns out to be a murder case, as they find Kimie's husband slain at his desk.<br />
<br />
=== Holmes Freak Case (Manga: [[Volume 12#Holmes Freak Case|117-121]], Anime: [[Holmes Freak Murder Case|57-58]]) ===<br />
After this first case, it only takes one more run-in with Conan to get Heiji thinking about the similarities between Conan and Shinichi. It is on the "[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]" that Heiji, despite professing a preference for [[Wikipedia: Ellery Queen|Ellery Queen]], exercises the Holmesian axiom: "When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." In addition, after Conan had [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|knocked him out]] to use him as his mouthpiece to present his evidence, Heiji receives a clout on the head from [[Kogoro Mouri]], which wakes him up again, and from the corner of his eye he spies Conan standing behind him and using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie]] to mimic his voice; he thus discovers Conan's secret, which forces Conan to explain his situation.<br />
<br />
=== Bond of Fire Case (Manga: [[Volume 15#Bond of Fire Case|150-153]], Anime: [[Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case|77-78]]) ===<br />
On their third case together, Conan was initially irritated to see Heiji, but they quickly formed a strong team. Together they cornered the murderer and even took steps to preventing the suicide she had planned. When she realizes that she won't be able to kill herself she weeps piteously, causing Heiji to whisper to Conan, "perhaps we should have let her die." Conan replies that "a detective who corners a murderer with logic and then lets them commit suicide is no better than a murderer."<br />
<br />
=== Mystery Writer Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Mystery Writer Case|183]], Anime: [[The Mystery Writer Disappearance Case|117]]) ===<br />
Heiji calls Conan having deciphered the text in the first new chapter, and with this information Conan manages to solve the rest of the hidden riddles.<br />
<br />
=== Stabbed Wallet Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Stabbed Wallet Case|185-188]], Anime: [[The Naniwa Serial Murder Case|118]]) ===<br />
Heiji invites Conan (and [[Kogoro Mouri]] and [[Ran Mouri]], because otherwise it'd look suspicious) to Osaka. It is revealed by [[Kazuha Toyama]] (in her first appearance) that Heiji has been talking about 'Kudo' so often that Kazuha thought 'Kudo' was his new Tokyo girlfriend. Heiji suggests that the reason he invited Conan to Osaka is because he has been worried about Conan's safety; he has had dreams of Conan being murdered. On a case together in Osaka, Heiji gives Conan his omamori, which ends up saving his life by deflecting a knife thrust. However, without it Heiji is injured while trying to prevent the murderer from committing suicide. In the ambulance, he reveals to Conan that he has taken to heart Conan's admonishment.<br />
<br />
=== Wedding Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 21#Wedding Murder Case|211-214]], Anime: [[The Night Before the Wedding Locked Room Case|141-142]]) ===<br />

A news reporter, who was present to cover the original case, accuses Shinichi of faking the memory loss and states that she knows the 'truth' about him.

== Non-canon plot overview ==<br />
<br />
== Relationships analysis ==<br />
=== Kazuha Toyama ===<br />
{{main|Heiji Hattori and Kazuha Toyama}}<br />
Like Shinichi's relationship with Ran, Heiji's relationship with [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] is a very close one: they know each other since their childhoods, and have stayed close through the years. Their relationship is identified as a romantic one by other characters and fans alike, even though they claim that they don't have that sort of relationship or feelings for each other. Heiji is clueless when it comes to love and in the majority of the manga and anime has not yet realized he has actual feelings for Kazuha, until recently. On the class trip where Ran and Shinichi almost share a kiss, Heiji is explicitly jealous, all the while thinking of Kazuha, even saying “[he’s] running out of places to confess.” While it’s unknown when he plans on confessing, it is clear that Heiji loves Kazuha. It has been shown that he becomes visibly jealous when he sees Kazuha with other guys, becoming distracted throughout the whole case. At one point, after a certain case, while looking at Kazuha, his thoughts read: 'Fool. You're too naive. I promise you, as long as you're with me, I'll never let anyone hurt you.'. Kazuha knows she has feelings for Heiji, as she shows this by being protective and chasing off other women that might have a interest in him In on of the mangas Kazuha attempts to confess her feelings after finding out that Shinichi had done so with Ran, but is unlucky because by telling him, Heiji ran off to tease Conan(Shinichi) for it. She one time even attempted to sacrifice herself to save Heiji during a case in which accidentally both fell off a cliff. When the branch that Heiji was holding and both of them were hanging on to was breaking, she stabbed his hand with an arrow of love to prevent him from falling and force him to let her fall; however, he still held on despite the wound. Also, they have a similar situation to Ran and Shinichi, being childhood friends that have romantic feelings for each other and have similar backgrounds. Heiji is a teenage detective and she is a police detective's daughter, like Ran is a detective's daughter and Shinichi is a teenage detective. They are even called the 'Ran and Shinichi of Osaka' by fans of the series, since they're so similar. Although they are constantly fighting, they both are very close friends. It is also shown in the seventh movie, ''[[Crossroad in the Ancient Capital]]'', that Kazuha is Heiji's first love, though he didn't know it was her at the time. In the most recent case, Heiji confessed to Kazuha when she was taken away by some suspicious men, saying "What are you doing to my Kazuha?!". When Kazuha questioned him about it, he claimed that she was wrong and there was no evidence that proves his confession (although Shinichi recorded it). Nonetheless, it is shown in the file 912 that he has actually realized his feelings for her, as Ran questions him about the confession. He denies it to her, but thinks that he needed a more important place to confess, as Kudo confessed in front of the Big Ben.<br />
<br />
=== Shinichi Kudo/Conan Edogawa ===<br />
[[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]<br />
His sharp intellect helped Heiji quickly figure out Conan's real identity as Shinichi. Heiji acts rather brotherly towards [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]], even going so far as to pretend to be him on various occasions so that no one figures out that Shinichi and Conan are the same person. Of course, this might also be to make up for all the times Heiji calls him Kudo, which has nearly given Shinichi away multiple times. Heiji is concerned for Shinichi when he gets into trouble and life-or-death situations. They are as close as real brothers, both being detectives who have romantic feelings for their childhood friends. When they're caught solving a case together, it's not unusual for their minds to move in sync; because of this and several other factors, they maintain a sort of friendly rivalry with each other. However, they are both all business when a case gets serious. Heiji has, on several occasions, declared himself to be Shinichi's best friend.<ref>English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective</ref> He also becomes extremely determined to one-up Shinichi's London confession to Ran by creating an even better setting to one day confess his love to his childhood friend, Kazuha.<br />
<br />
Even with his teasing, Heiji genuinely wants Shinichi (Conan) and Ran to become a couple. He once suggested that Shinichi tell Ran the truth about the Black Organization to ease both of their suffering.<br />
<br />
=== Ran Mouri ===<br />
Heiji and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] are very good friends, bonding after Heiji's many trips to Tokyo because he "misses Conan". Ran respects Heiji as a very skilled detective who reminds her of Shinichi, but whenever Heiji and Kazuha run into an argument, Ran seems to take Kazuha's side.<br />
<br />
Since Heiji knows that Ran is Shinichi's Girlfriend, he tends to tease Shinichi about her quite often and will give him advice on his romantic relationship with her. He is also sometimes protective of her for the sake of Shinichi, such as when [[Soshi Okita]] flirted with Ran and he told him to back off since she is "his friend's girl" referring to Shinichi.<ref>Episode 916</ref> Since it's practically identical with his relationship with Kazuha (Even though they aren't on the same level as Shinichi & Ran's romantic relationship).<br />
<br />
Heiji almost views Ran as a sister, as he will tease her from time to time and he'll help explain things to her during cases along with Kazuha.<br />
<br />
=== Heizo Hattori ===<br />
Heiji wants to become a detective, and his [[Heizo Hattori|father]] is very supportive of this, helping him solve tough cases. However, his father prefers a "tough love" approach, though mostly for the sole purpose of using Heiji to lure out a suspect.<ref>Episode 263</ref><br />
<br />
=== Shizuka Hattori ===<br />
[[Shizuka Hattori|Shizuka]] is Heiji's mother and he sometimes calls her an "old lady".<br />
<br />
=== Kogoro Mouri ===<br />
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] respects him a little as a detective, but due to Heiji being the better detective, he seems to get annoyed whenever Heiji is with him while solving cases.<br />
<br />
=== Goro Otaki ===<br />
[[Goro Otaki|Otaki]] and Heiji are very good friends.<br />
<br />
=== Juzo Megure ===<br />
Usually [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] gets a little annoyed whenever Heiji runs into a case he is handling. He often tells Kogoro to not to lose to an outsider like Heiji. Despite this, Megure respects Heiji as a very skilled detective, and he has even declared Heiji as a better detective than Shinichi.<br />
<br />
=== Momiji Ooka ===<br />
[[Momiji Ooka|Momiji]] is close to her "future husband" Heiji. According to the 21st movie (which has yet to be contradicted by the manga / anime), they met as children and played karuta together. Heiji made a "pinky promise" with her about playing more later, which Momiji mistook as a marriage proposal. Unbeknownst to Heiji, Momiji held on the promise for several years, firmly believing that they are destined to be together.<br />
However, despite Momiji's feelings for Heiji, he does not reciprocate them most likely because of his feelings for Kazuha.<br />

== Name origin ==<br />
Heiji's name comes from fictional Edo period police detective {{nihongo|[[Wikipedia: Zenigata Heiji|Zenigata Heiji]]|銭形 平次}}. His surname stems from Inspector Hattori, a police officer who often cooperates with Detective Shunsaku Kudo of the TV Drama [[wikipedia:ja:探偵物語|Tantei Monogatari (Detective Tales)]].<br />

'''{{nihongo|Heiji Hattori|服部 平次|Hattori Heiji}}''', also known as '''Harley Hartwell''' in the Funimation dub, is an Osakan high school detective in the manga and anime series ''[[Detective Conan]]''. He is a childhood friend and the romantic interest of [[Kazuha Toyama]]. Originally a detective rival to [[Shinichi Kudo]], Heiji has since [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|found out]] [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s true identity and the two often team up to work on cases. He was the first person to ''deduce'' Conan's true identity.<br />
<br />
== Background ==<br />
[[File:Cuffed.png|thumb|left|200px|Heiji and Kazuha cuffed together as children.]]<br />
Heiji is a high school detective, and the son of [[Heizo Hattori]], chief of the Osaka Police Department, and his wife [[Shizuka Hattori]]. Heiji wants to be a detective like his father since spending his childhood looking for lost cats in his neighborhood, and he is also very skilled in kendo and has become a favored tournament contender for his school.<br />
<br />
At one time during their childhood, Heiji had had the unfortunate idea of locking himself and his friend [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] together with a set of old handcuffs which had no key to unlock it; as a result they involuntarily had to spend time together even on some rather intimate occasions (i.e., bathroom visits) before the cuffs could be removed. As a reminder of this 'closeness' and for good luck, Kazuha fashioned two identical lucky charms, each incorporating a chain link from the cuffs, which she and Heiji have been wearing ever since.<ref name=StabbedWallet>Manga Volume 19: Files 185 (Stabbed Wallet Case)</ref><br />
<br />
In the news, Heiji has been publicly declared the "Great Detective of the West", while [[Shinichi Kudo]] is the "Great Detective of the East". As a result, Heiji showed up unannounced at the Mouri Detective Agency looking for Kudo, seeking to challenge his rival to a showdown of wits. (In fact, they had such a contest before, three years previously, [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|during a skiing trip in the Yamagata prefecture]], although they never learned about each other's identities at that time.<ref>Manga Chapters 518-522: Yuki-Onna Murder Case</ref>) Heiji was soundly defeated in the following case after [[Conan Edogawa]] temporarily turned back into Shinichi, but he gained a lot of respect for Shinichi in the process.<ref>Manga Chapters 092-096: The Great Detective Of The West</ref><br />
<br />
During their second encounter, Conan knocked Heiji out to use him as the mouthpiece for the voice-changing bow-tie. But during his final presentation of the facts, Heiji awoke prematurely and discovered Conan's secret, and in the end managed to blackmail Conan into revealing all.<ref>Manga Chapters 121: The Holmes Freak Case: The Revelation</ref> Ever since that revelation, Heiji has been helping Conan in hiding his secret identity, though he constantly slips up by calling him "Kudo" in front of [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and Kazuha. <br />
<br />
Heiji and Conan most often congenially team up to solve assorted cases. Heiji has also helped Conan investigate the [[Black Organization]] on several occasions, such as when the two investigated [[Jodie Starling]],<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=34|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 2-7|language=English}}</ref> or when Heiji investigated [[Eisuke Hondou]] on his own and then told Conan his findings<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=56|chapter=Files 7|language=Japanese}}</ref>, but he never had a real direct confrontation with the primary antagonist. He has also helped cover for Conan during several of the brief instances where Conan regained his true adolescent age, and has even disguised himself as Shinichi on several occasions in order to protect his identity, even though he is not very good at it (mostly owing to his distinctive Kansai dialect). When not working on a case, he regularly attempts to invite Conan to take in the sights and culinary delights of Osaka, which he considers more wholesome than Tokyo's.<br />
{{clearleft}}<br />
<br />
== Personality ==<br />
Even while solving a case, Heiji tends to be lighthearted and good-humored, preferring to work through it with a grin on his face. He is a big fan of baseball, and is most of the time shown wearing an Osaka cap, to support the local Osaka baseball team. He usually wears his cap with its visor pointed backward, but if he feels challenged, he turns the visor forward.<br />
<br />
Heiji is known for his pride as an Osaka citizen and for his thick Osakan accent, which has been pointed out and sometimes made fun numerous times. However, Heiji holds his head high and is always one to brag about the greatness of Osaka, especially when Conan comes to visit. <br />
<br />
Despite him knowing the value and necessity of remaining calm in the face of a crime, Heiji tends to be impulsive at times, which tends to cloud his judgment a little. This was discussed directly in the "Detective Koushien" case, when [[Saguru Hakuba]] accused Heiji of being a poor detective for disrupting a crime scene in his rush to see if the victim could still be saved. Heiji, however, solved the case in the end, and reminded Saguru that the detective's first job is to prevent death if he can. Heiji is also known to be extremely protective of those he values as close friends, and tries hard to keep them out of harm. There are several instances where Hattori tells Kazuha to wait for him or leaves her behind in order to keep her from being involved in cases, simply because he's afraid of her getting hurt.<ref>Manga Volume 59, File 6, pg 6: Armored Warrior</ref><ref>Manga Volume 59, File 7, pg 11: Art of War</ref><ref name=653p3>Manga Volume 63, File 1, page 3: My Deduction</ref><br />
<br />
Furthermore, he's pretty much always watching Shinichi's back, and does whatever he can to not only keep Shinichi safe, but to keep his identity under cover. However, on one occasion Heiji advised Conan to tell the truth, when Ran had convinced herself that Conan was Shinichi and thus willingly gave him blood after being shot. <br />
<br />
Heiji occasionally enjoys teasing Shinichi's kid form. He has fun jokingly (sometimes mistakenly) calling Conan "Kudo" in front of Ran at his friend's expense. He often treats Conan/ Shinichi as a younger brother and their close relationship even evokes Kazuha's jealousy from time to time. In return Conan truly trusts and respects Heiji.<br />
<br />
Although he is very competitive when it comes to detective cases, when a case gets hot, he and Shinichi work effectively together. During Shinichi's first return to his high school during the play performance, Heiji had let him take the lead role in the investigations, saying that it was because they were in Tokyo, Shinichi's turf.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=26|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 1-7|language=English}}</ref> <br />
<br />
Although he frequently mocks Kazuha for her superstitions and enthusiasm for good-luck charms, Heiji has several times revealed that he puts more trust in them than he would admit. He once dreamed of Shinichi being murdered, and out subsequently insisted that Conan wear his omamori, the good luck charm Kazuha gave him. The omamori ended up saving Shinichi's life by deflecting a knife blow, but Heiji, without his usual protection, was shot in the stomach.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=19|chapter=Files 5-8|language=Japanese}}</ref> In another case, Ran hung a teruterubozu, a charm that's supposed to ensure good weather, in the window so that Conan would have good weather for his field trip the next day. Heiji, however, got up in the middle of the night to take down the teruterubozu so that Conan's field trip would be rained out and he could accompany Heiji on an investigation of the The Red Horse Among The Flames.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=39|language=Japanese}}</ref><br />
<br />
During the "Bond of Fire" case, Heiji questions Conan if they were right in stopping the culprit from committing suicide, leading to the latter responding that if a detective knows a criminal is about to commit suicide and does nothing to stop it, then the detective is no better than a murderer. Heiji takes to this heart, as evidenced by him stopping the serial murderer in the "Stabbed Wallet" case from committing suicide.<br />
<br />
His relationship with Shinichi/Conan from his end. In Heiji's first appearance, he traveled all the way to Tokyo to challenge Shinichi Kudo to a deduction battle so he could win and show he was the superior detective of the two. After Shinichi solves the case (which included correcting Heiji's wrong assumptions), the Tokyoite detective then gives a short speech to the Osakan that there's no such thing as the superior or inferior detective, only the truth; Heiji is left both speechless and amazed. Throughout his subsequent appearances,(which involved deducing "Conan's" real identity), Heiji may have kept his competitiveness towards his fellow detective, but he now considers Shinichi/Conan to be his partner and best friend, willing to do anything to ensure his happiness and safety.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Appearance ==<br />
[[File:vlcsnap-2013-09-20-15h27m58s194.png|thumb|right|200px|Heiji talks about his skin color in movie 7.]]<br />
Heiji is a handsome man with dark brown, spiky hair and dark brown skin which he claims is inherited from his grandfather.<ref>Chapter 278</ref> His eyes are blue in the manga (like every character). Initially, his eyes appeared dark green, but are now blue<ref>Episode 710</ref>. He speaks with a strong Kansai Ben accent, which is typical of the Osaka region. Since Heiji is so strongly accustomed to this accent, his lingual habit can be a disadvantage at times, especially when he has to impersonate someone who uses standard Japanese.<ref>[[Volume 26# School Play Case|Manga Chapter 256: ''Concealed Truth'']]</ref><ref>OVA 06: ''[[Follow the Vanished Diamond! Conan & Heiji vs. Kid!]]''</ref> He has a scar behind the left ear from being hit during an Oyodo competition as said in episode 263.<br />
<br />
He has also been shown to be popular with girls due to his good looks, position as kendo captain at his high school, and his fame as a high school detective. For example, in episode 263 when several girls tried to flirt with him but he had switched his gear with another team member to make a last minute call to Conan to visit his match. This was shown in Magic File 4: The Osaka Okonomiyaki Killer where several girls came to ask for an autograph and in [[OVA 9]], he was referred to as a lady killer.<br />
{{clear}}<br />
<br />
== Skills ==<br />
=== Keen Intellect ===<br />
Heiji's detective skills are the same as Shinichi's. Because of his skills, Heiji has acquired his nickname "The Great Detective Of The West." Like Shinichi, he has a keen eye for details, and can spot any unusual aspects in a case that most people tend to ignore or not take into account and has extraordinarily broad and deep knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to recall every detail of an investigation, and may have a photographic memory to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Heiji's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony. However, unlike Shinichi, Heiji seem to be more competitive and hot-blooded while solving a case, which sometimes leads him into making a wrong deduction [[Diplomat Murder Case|i.e. the case in his first appearance.]] Like the other "genius" detectives, Heiji has shown himself to have an eidetic memory, capable of remembering complex letter and number sequences at only a glance, such as when he was able to solve a code in his head during the "Heiji and Kazuha in Grave Danger" arc, and even reproduce another message using the same code to text to Conan. When Heiji and Shinichi work together, they're each other's equal and will often arrive at the same conclusions. But when they compete with each other or their deductions differ, Shinichi usually wins. Recent cases have begun to subvert this, but usually only with subjects Heiji specializes in - e.g. kendo. He is also good if it comes to someone who has his own dialect, Kansai dialect.<br />
<br />
=== Athletic ability ===<br />
Heiji is the fifth position, or taisho, and captain of his high school Kendo team. Heiji may disable criminals using an improvised bokken similar to how Conan uses his soccer skills. Heiji is also very nimble, able to jump higher than a bookshelf, seamlessly scale the side of the staircase, and balance perfectly on a katana. This is shown in episode 263 of the anime, when Kotegawa tries to kill him.<br />
<br />
=== Others ===<br />
Heiji is also a capable motorcycle rider. He also speaks fluent English.<ref>[[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective]]</ref> Heiji has shown to have the ability to deduce a woman's swimsuit without actually looking at it.<ref>[[Solitary Island of the Princess and the Dragon King's Palace]]</ref> He is also shown to have a "Kudou Radar" where he correctly guessed Conan's involvement in the case without actually seeing Conan.<ref>[[Furinkazan]]</ref><br />

== Plot overview ==<br />
=== Great Detective of the West (Manga: [[Volume 10#Great Detective of the_West|92-96]], Anime: [[Diplomat Murder Case|48-49]]) ===<br />
One day, Conan (using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|Voice-Changer Tie]] to imitate [[Shinichi Kudo|his old voice]]) calls [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] to tell her once again that he is all right and that he is still stuck with the 'special case' when Ran hangs up on him as someone has just entered the detective agency. Coming home, Conan finds to his surprise that the 'customer' is a youth who keeps demanding to see Shinichi Kudo. He had read of Kogoro solving cases and jumps to the conclusion that he is getting help from Shinichi. When Ran mentions that Shinichi has just called, without asking about Ran's state, the youth deduces that Shinichi must actually be nearby, watching Ran from afar. He then introduces himself as high school detective Heiji Hattori and presents a gift, a bottle of [[baijiu]], of which he gives Conan a swig. Just then, Kimie Tsujimura, the wife of a known diplomat, enters [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]]'s office to ask him to investigate the girlfriend of her son. In order to be inconspicuous, Kogoro takes Ran and Conan along, and Heiji, hoping to flush out Shinichi, tags along as well.

After this first case, it only takes one more run-in with Conan to get Heiji thinking about the similarities between Conan and Shinichi. It is on the "[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]" that Heiji, despite professing a preference for [[Wikipedia: Ellery Queen|Ellery Queen]], exercises the Holmesian axiom: "When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." In addition, after Conan had [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|knocked him out]] to use him as his mouthpiece to present his evidence, Heiji receives a clout on the head from [[Kogoro Mouri]], which wakes him up again, and from the corner of his eye he spies Conan standing behind him and using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie]] to mimic his voice; he thus discovers Conan's secret, which forces Conan to explain his situation.<br />

It is revealed by [[Kazuha Toyama]] (in her first appearance) that Heiji has been talking about 'Kudo' so often that Kazuha thought 'Kudo' was his new Tokyo girlfriend. Heiji suggests that the reason he invited Conan to Osaka is because he has been worried about Conan's safety; he has had dreams of Conan being murdered. On a case together in Osaka, Heiji gives Conan his omamori, which ends up saving his life by deflecting a knife thrust. However, without it Heiji is injured while trying to prevent the murderer from committing suicide. In the ambulance, he reveals to Conan that he has taken to heart Conan's admonishment.<br />

A news reporter, who was present to cover the original case, accuses Shinichi of faking the memory loss and states that she knows the 'truth' about him.

{{main|Heiji Hattori and Kazuha Toyama}}<br />
Like Shinichi's relationship with Ran, Heiji's relationship with [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] is a very close one: they know each other since their childhoods, and have stayed close through the years. Their relationship is identified as a romantic one by other characters and fans alike, even though they claim that they don't have that sort of relationship or feelings for each other. Heiji is clueless when it comes to love and in the majority of the manga and anime has not yet realized he has actual feelings for Kazuha, until recently. On the class trip where Ran and Shinichi almost share a kiss, Heiji is explicitly jealous, all the while thinking of Kazuha, even saying “[he’s] running out of places to confess.” While it’s unknown when he plans on confessing, it is clear that Heiji loves Kazuha. It has been shown that he becomes visibly jealous when he sees Kazuha with other guys, becoming distracted throughout the whole case. At one point, after a certain case, while looking at Kazuha, his thoughts read: 'Fool. You're too naive. I promise you, as long as you're with me, I'll never let anyone hurt you.'. Kazuha knows she has feelings for Heiji, as she shows this by being protective and chasing off other women that might have a interest in him In on of the mangas Kazuha attempts to confess her feelings after finding out that Shinichi had done so with Ran, but is unlucky because by telling him, Heiji ran off to tease Conan(Shinichi) for it. She one time even attempted to sacrifice herself to save Heiji during a case in which accidentally both fell off a cliff. When the branch that Heiji was holding and both of them were hanging on to was breaking, she stabbed his hand with an arrow of love to prevent him from falling and force him to let her fall; however, he still held on despite the wound. Also, they have a similar situation to Ran and Shinichi, being childhood friends that have romantic feelings for each other and have similar backgrounds. Heiji is a teenage detective and she is a police detective's daughter, like Ran is a detective's daughter and Shinichi is a teenage detective. They are even called the 'Ran and Shinichi of Osaka' by fans of the series, since they're so similar. Although they are constantly fighting, they both are very close friends. It is also shown in the seventh movie, ''[[Crossroad in the Ancient Capital]]'', that Kazuha is Heiji's first love, though he didn't know it was her at the time. In the most recent case, Heiji confessed to Kazuha when she was taken away by some suspicious men, saying "What are you doing to my Kazuha?!". When Kazuha questioned him about it, he claimed that she was wrong and there was no evidence that proves his confession (although Shinichi recorded it). Nonetheless, it is shown in the file 912 that he has actually realized his feelings for her, as Ran questions him about the confession. He denies it to her, but thinks that he needed a more important place to confess, as Kudo confessed in front of the Big Ben.<br />
<br />
=== Shinichi Kudo/Conan Edogawa ===<br />
[[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]<br />
His sharp intellect helped Heiji quickly figure out Conan's real identity as Shinichi. Heiji acts rather brotherly towards [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]], even going so far as to pretend to be him on various occasions so that no one figures out that Shinichi and Conan are the same person. Of course, this might also be to make up for all the times Heiji calls him Kudo, which has nearly given Shinichi away multiple times. Heiji is concerned for Shinichi when he gets into trouble and life-or-death situations. They are as close as real brothers, both being detectives who have romantic feelings for their childhood friends. When they're caught solving a case together, it's not unusual for their minds to move in sync; because of this and several other factors, they maintain a sort of friendly rivalry with each other. However, they are both all business when a case gets serious. Heiji has, on several occasions, declared himself to be Shinichi's best friend.<ref>English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective</ref> He also becomes extremely determined to one-up Shinichi's London confession to Ran by creating an even better setting to one day confess his love to his childhood friend, Kazuha.<br />
<br />
Even with his teasing, Heiji genuinely wants Shinichi (Conan) and Ran to become a couple. He once suggested that Shinichi tell Ran the truth about the Black Organization to ease both of their suffering.<br />
<br />
=== Ran Mouri ===<br />
Heiji and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] are very good friends, bonding after Heiji's many trips to Tokyo because he "misses Conan". Ran respects Heiji as a very skilled detective who reminds her of Shinichi, but whenever Heiji and Kazuha run into an argument, Ran seems to take Kazuha's side.<br />
<br />
Since Heiji knows that Ran is Shinichi's Girlfriend, he tends to tease Shinichi about her quite often and will give him advice on his romantic relationship with her. He is also sometimes protective of her for the sake of Shinichi, such as when [[Soshi Okita]] flirted with Ran and he told him to back off since she is "his friend's girl" referring to Shinichi.<ref>Episode 916</ref> Since it's practically identical with his relationship with Kazuha (Even though they aren't on the same level as Shinichi & Ran's romantic relationship).<br />
<br />
Heiji almost views Ran as a sister, as he will tease her from time to time and he'll help explain things to her during cases along with Kazuha.<br />
<br />
=== Heizo Hattori ===<br />
Heiji wants to become a detective, and his [[Heizo Hattori|father]] is very supportive of this, helping him solve tough cases. However, his father prefers a "tough love" approach, though mostly for the sole purpose of using Heiji to lure out a suspect.<ref>Episode 263</ref><br />
<br />
=== Shizuka Hattori ===<br />
[[Shizuka Hattori|Shizuka]] is Heiji's mother and he sometimes calls her an "old lady".<br />
<br />
=== Kogoro Mouri ===<br />
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] respects him a little as a detective, but due to Heiji being the better detective, he seems to get annoyed whenever Heiji is with him while solving cases.<br />
<br />
=== Goro Otaki ===<br />
[[Goro Otaki|Otaki]] and Heiji are very good friends.<br />
<br />
=== Juzo Megure ===<br />
Usually [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] gets a little annoyed whenever Heiji runs into a case he is handling. He often tells Kogoro to not to lose to an outsider like Heiji. Despite this, Megure respects Heiji as a very skilled detective, and he has even declared Heiji as a better detective than Shinichi.<br />
<br />
=== Momiji Ooka ===<br />
[[Momiji Ooka|Momiji]] is close to her "future husband" Heiji. According to the 21st movie (which has yet to be contradicted by the manga / anime), they met as children and played karuta together. Heiji made a "pinky promise" with her about playing more later, which Momiji mistook as a marriage proposal. Unbeknownst to Heiji, Momiji held on the promise for several years, firmly believing that they are destined to be together.<br />
However, despite Momiji's feelings for Heiji, he does not reciprocate them most likely because of his feelings for Kazuha.<br />

== Name origin ==<br />
Heiji's name comes from fictional Edo period police detective {{nihongo|[[Wikipedia: Zenigata Heiji|Zenigata Heiji]]|銭形 平次}}. His surname stems from Inspector Hattori, a police officer who often cooperates with Detective Shunsaku Kudo of the TV Drama [[wikipedia:ja:探偵物語|Tantei Monogatari (Detective Tales)]].<br />

'''{{nihongo|Heiji Hattori|服部 平次|Hattori Heiji}}''', also known as '''Harley Hartwell''' in the Funimation dub, is an Osakan high school detective in the manga and anime series ''[[Detective Conan]]''. He is a childhood friend and the romantic interest of [[Kazuha Toyama]]. Originally a detective rival to [[Shinichi Kudo]], Heiji has since [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|found out]] [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s true identity and the two often team up to work on cases. He was the first person to ''deduce'' Conan's true identity.<br />
<br />
== Background ==<br />
[[File:Cuffed.png|thumb|left|200px|Heiji and Kazuha cuffed together as children.]]<br />
Heiji is a high school detective, and the son of [[Heizo Hattori]], chief of the Osaka Police Department, and his wife [[Shizuka Hattori]]. Heiji wants to be a detective like his father since spending his childhood looking for lost cats in his neighborhood, and he is also very skilled in kendo and has become a favored tournament contender for his school.<br />
<br />
At one time during their childhood, Heiji had had the unfortunate idea of locking himself and his friend [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] together with a set of old handcuffs which had no key to unlock it; as a result they involuntarily had to spend time together even on some rather intimate occasions (i.e., bathroom visits) before the cuffs could be removed. As a reminder of this 'closeness' and for good luck, Kazuha fashioned two identical lucky charms, each incorporating a chain link from the cuffs, which she and Heiji have been wearing ever since.<ref name=StabbedWallet>Manga Volume 19: Files 185 (Stabbed Wallet Case)</ref><br />
<br />
In the news, Heiji has been publicly declared the "Great Detective of the West", while [[Shinichi Kudo]] is the "Great Detective of the East". As a result, Heiji showed up unannounced at the Mouri Detective Agency looking for Kudo, seeking to challenge his rival to a showdown of wits. (In fact, they had such a contest before, three years previously, [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|during a skiing trip in the Yamagata prefecture]], although they never learned about each other's identities at that time.<ref>Manga Chapters 518-522: Yuki-Onna Murder Case</ref>) Heiji was soundly defeated in the following case after [[Conan Edogawa]] temporarily turned back into Shinichi, but he gained a lot of respect for Shinichi in the process.<ref>Manga Chapters 092-096: The Great Detective Of The West</ref><br />
<br />
During their second encounter, Conan knocked Heiji out to use him as the mouthpiece for the voice-changing bow-tie. But during his final presentation of the facts, Heiji awoke prematurely and discovered Conan's secret, and in the end managed to blackmail Conan into revealing all.<ref>Manga Chapters 121: The Holmes Freak Case: The Revelation</ref> Ever since that revelation, Heiji has been helping Conan in hiding his secret identity, though he constantly slips up by calling him "Kudo" in front of [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and Kazuha. <br />
<br />
Heiji and Conan most often congenially team up to solve assorted cases. Heiji has also helped Conan investigate the [[Black Organization]] on several occasions, such as when the two investigated [[Jodie Starling]],<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=34|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 2-7|language=English}}</ref> or when Heiji investigated [[Eisuke Hondou]] on his own and then told Conan his findings<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=56|chapter=Files 7|language=Japanese}}</ref>, but he never had a real direct confrontation with the primary antagonist. He has also helped cover for Conan during several of the brief instances where Conan regained his true adolescent age, and has even disguised himself as Shinichi on several occasions in order to protect his identity, even though he is not very good at it (mostly owing to his distinctive Kansai dialect). When not working on a case, he regularly attempts to invite Conan to take in the sights and culinary delights of Osaka, which he considers more wholesome than Tokyo's.<br />
{{clearleft}}<br />
<br />
== Personality ==<br />
Even while solving a case, Heiji tends to be lighthearted and good-humored, preferring to work through it with a grin on his face. He is a big fan of baseball, and is most of the time shown wearing an Osaka cap, to support the local Osaka baseball team. He usually wears his cap with its visor pointed backward, but if he feels challenged, he turns the visor forward.<br />
<br />
Heiji is known for his pride as an Osaka citizen and for his thick Osakan accent, which has been pointed out and sometimes made fun numerous times. However, Heiji holds his head high and is always one to brag about the greatness of Osaka, especially when Conan comes to visit. <br />
<br />
Despite him knowing the value and necessity of remaining calm in the face of a crime, Heiji tends to be impulsive at times, which tends to cloud his judgment a little. This was discussed directly in the "Detective Koushien" case, when [[Saguru Hakuba]] accused Heiji of being a poor detective for disrupting a crime scene in his rush to see if the victim could still be saved. Heiji, however, solved the case in the end, and reminded Saguru that the detective's first job is to prevent death if he can. Heiji is also known to be extremely protective of those he values as close friends, and tries hard to keep them out of harm. There are several instances where Hattori tells Kazuha to wait for him or leaves her behind in order to keep her from being involved in cases, simply because he's afraid of her getting hurt.<ref>Manga Volume 59, File 6, pg 6: Armored Warrior</ref><ref>Manga Volume 59, File 7, pg 11: Art of War</ref><ref name=653p3>Manga Volume 63, File 1, page 3: My Deduction</ref><br />
<br />
Furthermore, he's pretty much always watching Shinichi's back, and does whatever he can to not only keep Shinichi safe, but to keep his identity under cover. However, on one occasion Heiji advised Conan to tell the truth, when Ran had convinced herself that Conan was Shinichi and thus willingly gave him blood after being shot. <br />
<br />
Heiji occasionally enjoys teasing Shinichi's kid form. He has fun jokingly (sometimes mistakenly) calling Conan "Kudo" in front of Ran at his friend's expense. He often treats Conan/ Shinichi as a younger brother and their close relationship even evokes Kazuha's jealousy from time to time. In return Conan truly trusts and respects Heiji.<br />
<br />
Although he is very competitive when it comes to detective cases, when a case gets hot, he and Shinichi work effectively together. During Shinichi's first return to his high school during the play performance, Heiji had let him take the lead role in the investigations, saying that it was because they were in Tokyo, Shinichi's turf.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=26|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 1-7|language=English}}</ref> <br />
<br />
Although he frequently mocks Kazuha for her superstitions and enthusiasm for good-luck charms, Heiji has several times revealed that he puts more trust in them than he would admit. He once dreamed of Shinichi being murdered, and out subsequently insisted that Conan wear his omamori, the good luck charm Kazuha gave him. The omamori ended up saving Shinichi's life by deflecting a knife blow, but Heiji, without his usual protection, was shot in the stomach.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=19|chapter=Files 5-8|language=Japanese}}</ref> In another case, Ran hung a teruterubozu, a charm that's supposed to ensure good weather, in the window so that Conan would have good weather for his field trip the next day. Heiji, however, got up in the middle of the night to take down the teruterubozu so that Conan's field trip would be rained out and he could accompany Heiji on an investigation of the The Red Horse Among The Flames.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=39|language=Japanese}}</ref><br />
<br />
During the "Bond of Fire" case, Heiji questions Conan if they were right in stopping the culprit from committing suicide, leading to the latter responding that if a detective knows a criminal is about to commit suicide and does nothing to stop it, then the detective is no better than a murderer. Heiji takes to this heart, as evidenced by him stopping the serial murderer in the "Stabbed Wallet" case from committing suicide.<br />
<br />
His relationship with Shinichi/Conan from his end. In Heiji's first appearance, he traveled all the way to Tokyo to challenge Shinichi Kudo to a deduction battle so he could win and show he was the superior detective of the two. After Shinichi solves the case (which included correcting Heiji's wrong assumptions), the Tokyoite detective then gives a short speech to the Osakan that there's no such thing as the superior or inferior detective, only the truth; Heiji is left both speechless and amazed. Throughout his subsequent appearances,(which involved deducing "Conan's" real identity), Heiji may have kept his competitiveness towards his fellow detective, but he now considers Shinichi/Conan to be his partner and best friend, willing to do anything to ensure his happiness and safety.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Appearance ==<br />
[[File:vlcsnap-2013-09-20-15h27m58s194.png|thumb|right|200px|Heiji talks about his skin color in movie 7.]]<br />
Heiji is a handsome man with dark brown, spiky hair and dark brown skin which he claims is inherited from his grandfather.<ref>Chapter 278</ref> His eyes are blue in the manga (like every character). Initially, his eyes appeared dark green, but are now blue<ref>Episode 710</ref>. He speaks with a strong Kansai Ben accent, which is typical of the Osaka region. Since Heiji is so strongly accustomed to this accent, his lingual habit can be a disadvantage at times, especially when he has to impersonate someone who uses standard Japanese.<ref>[[Volume 26# School Play Case|Manga Chapter 256: ''Concealed Truth'']]</ref><ref>OVA 06: ''[[Follow the Vanished Diamond! Conan & Heiji vs. Kid!]]''</ref> He has a scar behind the left ear from being hit during an Oyodo competition as said in episode 263.<br />
<br />
He has also been shown to be popular with girls due to his good looks, position as kendo captain at his high school, and his fame as a high school detective. For example, in episode 263 when several girls tried to flirt with him but he had switched his gear with another team member to make a last minute call to Conan to visit his match. This was shown in Magic File 4: The Osaka Okonomiyaki Killer where several girls came to ask for an autograph and in [[OVA 9]], he was referred to as a lady killer.<br />
{{clear}}<br />
<br />
== Skills ==<br />
=== Keen Intellect ===<br />
Heiji's detective skills are the same as Shinichi's. Because of his skills, Heiji has acquired his nickname "The Great Detective Of The West." Like Shinichi, he has a keen eye for details, and can spot any unusual aspects in a case that most people tend to ignore or not take into account and has extraordinarily broad and deep knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to recall every detail of an investigation, and may have a photographic memory to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Heiji's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony. However, unlike Shinichi, Heiji seem to be more competitive and hot-blooded while solving a case, which sometimes leads him into making a wrong deduction [[Diplomat Murder Case|i.e. the case in his first appearance.]] Like the other "genius" detectives, Heiji has shown himself to have an eidetic memory, capable of remembering complex letter and number sequences at only a glance, such as when he was able to solve a code in his head during the "Heiji and Kazuha in Grave Danger" arc, and even reproduce another message using the same code to text to Conan. When Heiji and Shinichi work together, they're each other's equal and will often arrive at the same conclusions. But when they compete with each other or their deductions differ, Shinichi usually wins. Recent cases have begun to subvert this, but usually only with subjects Heiji specializes in - e.g. kendo. He is also good if it comes to someone who has his own dialect, Kansai dialect.<br />
<br />
=== Athletic ability ===<br />
Heiji is the fifth position, or taisho, and captain of his high school Kendo team. Heiji may disable criminals using an improvised bokken similar to how Conan uses his soccer skills. Heiji is also very nimble, able to jump higher than a bookshelf, seamlessly scale the side of the staircase, and balance perfectly on a katana. This is shown in episode 263 of the anime, when Kotegawa tries to kill him.<br />
<br />
=== Others ===<br />
Heiji is also a capable motorcycle rider. He also speaks fluent English.<ref>[[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective]]</ref> Heiji has shown to have the ability to deduce a woman's swimsuit without actually looking at it.<ref>[[Solitary Island of the Princess and the Dragon King's Palace]]</ref> He is also shown to have a "Kudou Radar" where he correctly guessed Conan's involvement in the case without actually seeing Conan.<ref>[[Furinkazan]]</ref><br />

== Plot overview ==<br />
=== Great Detective of the West (Manga: [[Volume 10#Great Detective of the_West|92-96]], Anime: [[Diplomat Murder Case|48-49]]) ===<br />
One day, Conan (using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|Voice-Changer Tie]] to imitate [[Shinichi Kudo|his old voice]]) calls [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] to tell her once again that he is all right and that he is still stuck with the 'special case' when Ran hangs up on him as someone has just entered the detective agency. Coming home, Conan finds to his surprise that the 'customer' is a youth who keeps demanding to see Shinichi Kudo. He had read of Kogoro solving cases and jumps to the conclusion that he is getting help from Shinichi. When Ran mentions that Shinichi has just called, without asking about Ran's state, the youth deduces that Shinichi must actually be nearby, watching Ran from afar. He then introduces himself as high school detective Heiji Hattori and presents a gift, a bottle of [[baijiu]], of which he gives Conan a swig. Just then, Kimie Tsujimura, the wife of a known diplomat, enters [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]]'s office to ask him to investigate the girlfriend of her son. In order to be inconspicuous, Kogoro takes Ran and Conan along, and Heiji, hoping to flush out Shinichi, tags along as well. What is originally meant to be a simple investigation job turns out to be a murder case, as they find Kimie's husband slain at his desk.<br />
<br />
=== Holmes Freak Case (Manga: [[Volume 12#Holmes Freak Case|117-121]], Anime: [[Holmes Freak Murder Case|57-58]]) ===<br />
After this first case, it only takes one more run-in with Conan to get Heiji thinking about the similarities between Conan and Shinichi. It is on the "[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]" that Heiji, despite professing a preference for [[Wikipedia: Ellery Queen|Ellery Queen]], exercises the Holmesian axiom: "When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." In addition, after Conan had [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|knocked him out]] to use him as his mouthpiece to present his evidence, Heiji receives a clout on the head from [[Kogoro Mouri]], which wakes him up again, and from the corner of his eye he spies Conan standing behind him and using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie]] to mimic his voice; he thus discovers Conan's secret, which forces Conan to explain his situation.<br />
<br />
=== Bond of Fire Case (Manga: [[Volume 15#Bond of Fire Case|150-153]], Anime: [[Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case|77-78]]) ===<br />
On their third case together, Conan was initially irritated to see Heiji, but they quickly formed a strong team. Together they cornered the murderer and even took steps to preventing the suicide she had planned. When she realizes that she won't be able to kill herself she weeps piteously, causing Heiji to whisper to Conan, "perhaps we should have let her die." Conan replies that "a detective who corners a murderer with logic and then lets them commit suicide is no better than a murderer."<br />
<br />

Heiji invites Conan (and [[Kogoro Mouri]] and [[Ran Mouri]], because otherwise it'd look suspicious) to Osaka. It is revealed by [[Kazuha Toyama]] (in her first appearance) that Heiji has been talking about 'Kudo' so often that Kazuha thought 'Kudo' was his new Tokyo girlfriend. Heiji suggests that the reason he invited Conan to Osaka is because he has been worried about Conan's safety; he has had dreams of Conan being murdered. On a case together in Osaka, Heiji gives Conan his omamori, which ends up saving his life by deflecting a knife thrust. However, without it Heiji is injured while trying to prevent the murderer from committing suicide. In the ambulance, he reveals to Conan that he has taken to heart Conan's admonishment.<br />
<br />
=== Wedding Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 21#Wedding Murder Case|211-214]], Anime: [[The Night Before the Wedding Locked Room Case|141-142]]) ===<br />
Heiji and Kazuha visit Tokyo accompanied by Kogoro, Ran, and Conan. They run into Heiji's father's friend and are invited to their mansion. There a murder occurs and his father's friend is found dead in a locked room. It seems he was dragged to another room after being stabbed in the heart. Continuing the investigation, Heiji proclaims the butler was the murderer and he is taken away, screaming his innocence. Late that night, an unknown man takes the murder weapon and tries to place it in a bag, but is caught by Heiji and Conan who reveal that they placed the blame on the butler to lure out the true culprit. The culprit is revealed to be Kikuhito Morizono. He reveals that he murdered the man because he tried to cancel the wedding and take his love away from him.<br />
<br />
=== Cruise Ship Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 23#Cruise Ship Murder Case|225-230]], Anime: [[The Twenty Year Old Murderous Intent: The Symphony Serial Murder Case|174]]) ===<br />
In this episode, Heiji meets up once again with Conan and the gang on an overnight cruise in Tokyo. Unfortunately, instead of being able to spend a relaxing day on board, a serial murder case is created, leaving Heiji and Conan to work together to solve it. After they gather much of the evidence of the murder cases, Heiji and Conan share their deductions with each other only to find that, once again, their deductions are different. Heiji tries to beat Conan to the truth and goes off on his own to investigate. When he happens to come across the final piece of evidence that disproves both his and Conan's deductions, he is attacked and thrown overboard into the ocean.

Apparently, the spider god's victims are always found hanged. During their stay, they find a hanged man surrounded by web-like strings.

During a romantic scene, a man in the audience falls dead, seemingly by potassium cyanide, as revealed by a young man in the audience who appears to be Shinichi Kudo. This is quickly debunked, as Kazuha recognizes Heiji in disguise, and the real Shinichi has shown up anyway. Heiji originally planned on disguising as Shinichi in order to clear Ran's suspicions that Conan and Shinichi were one and the same, and was unaware that Shinichi would take the antidote with Haibara present in disguise as Conan.<br />

Heiji suspects Jodie-sensei of being a possible Black Organization member, and although Conan seems reluctant to support this idea, they pay Jodie-sensei a visit at her apartment. They find out here that her full name is "Jodie Saintemillion". After Jodie agrees to go out for a while with Heiji and Conan, the man living next door to Jodie falls dead outside from over 30 stories coincidentally as the three step outside. After the police arrive, it seems likely that the man committed suicide. However, Conan and Heiji have their doubts. Heiji immediately destroys the theory of suicide by showing that the man who fell from his apartment attempted to grab onto a curtain to save his life. Conan and Heiji reveal the truth by showing how the room was switched around so that when the man was drunken he would expect to be stepping out onto the balcony, but instead would wind up falling. After they solve the case, Heiji asks Jodie who she is. In reply, Jodie asks Heiji the same question. When Conan and Heiji leave, they concur that Jodie is suspicious but innocuous.

Meanwhile, it is revealed Heiji is held hostage by Misari Ito, an attorney who is the head of a tax evasion group. Ito demands Heiji to solve a code made by Kasukawa which contains a seven-digit-code to a safe box containing evidence of her scandal. While held at gunpoint, Heiji sends a modified version of the code to Kogoro and asks him to solve it. Conan manages to solve the code, realizing that K, Q, and J stand for King, Queen, and Jack and replaces them with numbers accordingly. When Heiji receives the code back from Kogoro, he tells Misari he will tell her the seven digits and they head to the bank. Conan realizes the last three digits are actually letters and realizes what Heiji is trying to tell him and replies a modified code. Heiji tells Misari Ito he will tell her the seven digits and they head to the bank. Heiji reveals that the numbers, if placed in a 3 by 3 diagram, will create a diagram of a dice with the 1's representing the dots on a dice. Heiji reveals that the code he sent Kogoro had the letters LIB meaning Libra which is referring to the scales Libra and the attorney badge Ito has; He explains that the code "Kogoro" replied with means to "Lure One of them Out".

Humorously, all the cases that appeared to be linked to a serial killer, were not connected at all. It was all done to lessen the suspicion on the culprit's true intention of murder. During their conversation, Heiji invited Kogoro and Conan to assist him in a new case that he wished to solve. They keep a close watch on the house whose occupant had asked for their assistance, even after the one who requested them declined the service. They kept surveillance for a long time until Ran called and asked them to hurry back home for dinner. Just as they left, the house went up in flames, along with a red horse.

Heiji, along with Ran, Kogoro and Kazuha, finds Shinichi with his memory completely erased, during a village trip. They are also surprised to find that almost everyone in the village seems to hate Shinichi, due to a supposedly 'stupid' and 'flawed' solution he gave about the deaths of the local leader and his wife, one year ago. A news reporter, who was present to cover the original case, accuses Shinichi of faking the memory loss and states that she knows the 'truth' about him. The next morning, the reporter is found stabbed, with no one but Shinichi in the house, and a knife with him, turning him into the one and only suspect. <br />
<br />
Heiji takes it upon himself to both prove Shinichi's innocence and hide him from the police, helped by Ran, Kogoro and Kazuha. He skilfully proves that the culprit had undergone cosmetic surgery, to impersonate Shinichi and commit a crime to destroy his reputation. The real Shinichi, too, turns up (after mistakenly ingesting [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]]'s APTX 4869 antidote prototype) to justify his deductions about the year-old double deaths.<br />
<br />
After the antidote's effects start wearing off, Heiji tries to prevent Shinichi from turning into Conan in front of Ran, by taking him to the toilet and asking him to hide in his (Heiji's) travel bag, so that he can make up some story about the disappearance and get him home.<br />

While returning home in Kogoro's hired car, the group spot a dead man inside a speeding car, and are able to stop it. Heiji and Shinichi, after narrowing down the suspects, together apprehend the criminal with such finesse that even Detective [[Miwako Sato]] (who happened to be present there along with her colleague, [[Wataru Takagi]]) is left surprised. Heiji also lends Shinichi his cap to prevent him from being recognized easily, due to Shinichi's fears about the [[Black Organization]].<br />

When there is a knock on the door, and Kazuha enters, Conan is surprised that [[Heiji_Hattori|Heiji]] did not come along as well. Kazuha claims that it is a secret visit for girls only.

<br />
== Non-canon plot overview ==<br />
<br />
== Relationships analysis ==<br />
=== Kazuha Toyama ===<br />
{{main|Heiji Hattori and Kazuha Toyama}}<br />
Like Shinichi's relationship with Ran, Heiji's relationship with [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] is a very close one: they know each other since their childhoods, and have stayed close through the years. Their relationship is identified as a romantic one by other characters and fans alike, even though they claim that they don't have that sort of relationship or feelings for each other. Heiji is clueless when it comes to love and in the majority of the manga and anime has not yet realized he has actual feelings for Kazuha, until recently. On the class trip where Ran and Shinichi almost share a kiss, Heiji is explicitly jealous, all the while thinking of Kazuha, even saying “[he’s] running out of places to confess.” While it’s unknown when he plans on confessing, it is clear that Heiji loves Kazuha. It has been shown that he becomes visibly jealous when he sees Kazuha with other guys, becoming distracted throughout the whole case. At one point, after a certain case, while looking at Kazuha, his thoughts read: 'Fool. You're too naive. I promise you, as long as you're with me, I'll never let anyone hurt you.'. Kazuha knows she has feelings for Heiji, as she shows this by being protective and chasing off other women that might have a interest in him In on of the mangas Kazuha attempts to confess her feelings after finding out that Shinichi had done so with Ran, but is unlucky because by telling him, Heiji ran off to tease Conan(Shinichi) for it. She one time even attempted to sacrifice herself to save Heiji during a case in which accidentally both fell off a cliff. When the branch that Heiji was holding and both of them were hanging on to was breaking, she stabbed his hand with an arrow of love to prevent him from falling and force him to let her fall; however, he still held on despite the wound. Also, they have a similar situation to Ran and Shinichi, being childhood friends that have romantic feelings for each other and have similar backgrounds. Heiji is a teenage detective and she is a police detective's daughter, like Ran is a detective's daughter and Shinichi is a teenage detective. They are even called the 'Ran and Shinichi of Osaka' by fans of the series, since they're so similar. Although they are constantly fighting, they both are very close friends. It is also shown in the seventh movie, ''[[Crossroad in the Ancient Capital]]'', that Kazuha is Heiji's first love, though he didn't know it was her at the time. In the most recent case, Heiji confessed to Kazuha when she was taken away by some suspicious men, saying "What are you doing to my Kazuha?!". When Kazuha questioned him about it, he claimed that she was wrong and there was no evidence that proves his confession (although Shinichi recorded it). Nonetheless, it is shown in the file 912 that he has actually realized his feelings for her, as Ran questions him about the confession. He denies it to her, but thinks that he needed a more important place to confess, as Kudo confessed in front of the Big Ben.<br />
<br />
=== Shinichi Kudo/Conan Edogawa ===<br />
[[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]<br />
His sharp intellect helped Heiji quickly figure out Conan's real identity as Shinichi. Heiji acts rather brotherly towards [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]], even going so far as to pretend to be him on various occasions so that no one figures out that Shinichi and Conan are the same person. Of course, this might also be to make up for all the times Heiji calls him Kudo, which has nearly given Shinichi away multiple times. Heiji is concerned for Shinichi when he gets into trouble and life-or-death situations. They are as close as real brothers, both being detectives who have romantic feelings for their childhood friends. When they're caught solving a case together, it's not unusual for their minds to move in sync; because of this and several other factors, they maintain a sort of friendly rivalry with each other. However, they are both all business when a case gets serious. Heiji has, on several occasions, declared himself to be Shinichi's best friend.<ref>English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective</ref> He also becomes extremely determined to one-up Shinichi's London confession to Ran by creating an even better setting to one day confess his love to his childhood friend, Kazuha.<br />
<br />
Even with his teasing, Heiji genuinely wants Shinichi (Conan) and Ran to become a couple. He once suggested that Shinichi tell Ran the truth about the Black Organization to ease both of their suffering.<br />
<br />
=== Ran Mouri ===<br />
Heiji and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] are very good friends, bonding after Heiji's many trips to Tokyo because he "misses Conan". Ran respects Heiji as a very skilled detective who reminds her of Shinichi, but whenever Heiji and Kazuha run into an argument, Ran seems to take Kazuha's side.<br />
<br />
Since Heiji knows that Ran is Shinichi's Girlfriend, he tends to tease Shinichi about her quite often and will give him advice on his romantic relationship with her. He is also sometimes protective of her for the sake of Shinichi, such as when [[Soshi Okita]] flirted with Ran and he told him to back off since she is "his friend's girl" referring to Shinichi.<ref>Episode 916</ref> Since it's practically identical with his relationship with Kazuha (Even though they aren't on the same level as Shinichi & Ran's romantic relationship).<br />
<br />
Heiji almost views Ran as a sister, as he will tease her from time to time and he'll help explain things to her during cases along with Kazuha.<br />
<br />
=== Heizo Hattori ===<br />
Heiji wants to become a detective, and his [[Heizo Hattori|father]] is very supportive of this, helping him solve tough cases. However, his father prefers a "tough love" approach, though mostly for the sole purpose of using Heiji to lure out a suspect.<ref>Episode 263</ref><br />
<br />
=== Shizuka Hattori ===<br />
[[Shizuka Hattori|Shizuka]] is Heiji's mother and he sometimes calls her an "old lady".<br />
<br />
=== Kogoro Mouri ===<br />
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] respects him a little as a detective, but due to Heiji being the better detective, he seems to get annoyed whenever Heiji is with him while solving cases.<br />
<br />
=== Goro Otaki ===<br />
[[Goro Otaki|Otaki]] and Heiji are very good friends.<br />
<br />
=== Juzo Megure ===<br />
Usually [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] gets a little annoyed whenever Heiji runs into a case he is handling. He often tells Kogoro to not to lose to an outsider like Heiji. Despite this, Megure respects Heiji as a very skilled detective, and he has even declared Heiji as a better detective than Shinichi.<br />
<br />
=== Momiji Ooka ===<br />
[[Momiji Ooka|Momiji]] is close to her "future husband" Heiji. According to the 21st movie (which has yet to be contradicted by the manga / anime), they met as children and played karuta together. Heiji made a "pinky promise" with her about playing more later, which Momiji mistook as a marriage proposal. Unbeknownst to Heiji, Momiji held on the promise for several years, firmly believing that they are destined to be together.<br />
However, despite Momiji's feelings for Heiji, he does not reciprocate them most likely because of his feelings for Kazuha.<br />

'''{{nihongo|Heiji Hattori|服部 平次|Hattori Heiji}}''', also known as '''Harley Hartwell''' in the Funimation dub, is an Osakan high school detective in the manga and anime series ''[[Detective Conan]]''. He is a childhood friend and the romantic interest of [[Kazuha Toyama]]. Originally a detective rival to [[Shinichi Kudo]], Heiji has since [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|found out]] [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s true identity and the two often team up to work on cases. He was the first person to ''deduce'' Conan's true identity.<br />
<br />
== Background ==<br />
[[File:Cuffed.png|thumb|left|200px|Heiji and Kazuha cuffed together as children.]]<br />
Heiji is a high school detective, and the son of [[Heizo Hattori]], chief of the Osaka Police Department, and his wife [[Shizuka Hattori]]. Heiji wants to be a detective like his father since spending his childhood looking for lost cats in his neighborhood, and he is also very skilled in kendo and has become a favored tournament contender for his school.<br />
<br />
At one time during their childhood, Heiji had had the unfortunate idea of locking himself and his friend [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] together with a set of old handcuffs which had no key to unlock it; as a result they involuntarily had to spend time together even on some rather intimate occasions (i.e., bathroom visits) before the cuffs could be removed. As a reminder of this 'closeness' and for good luck, Kazuha fashioned two identical lucky charms, each incorporating a chain link from the cuffs, which she and Heiji have been wearing ever since.<ref name=StabbedWallet>Manga Volume 19: Files 185 (Stabbed Wallet Case)</ref><br />
<br />
In the news, Heiji has been publicly declared the "Great Detective of the West", while [[Shinichi Kudo]] is the "Great Detective of the East". As a result, Heiji showed up unannounced at the Mouri Detective Agency looking for Kudo, seeking to challenge his rival to a showdown of wits. (In fact, they had such a contest before, three years previously, [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|during a skiing trip in the Yamagata prefecture]], although they never learned about each other's identities at that time.<ref>Manga Chapters 518-522: Yuki-Onna Murder Case</ref>) Heiji was soundly defeated in the following case after [[Conan Edogawa]] temporarily turned back into Shinichi, but he gained a lot of respect for Shinichi in the process.<ref>Manga Chapters 092-096: The Great Detective Of The West</ref><br />
<br />
During their second encounter, Conan knocked Heiji out to use him as the mouthpiece for the voice-changing bow-tie. But during his final presentation of the facts, Heiji awoke prematurely and discovered Conan's secret, and in the end managed to blackmail Conan into revealing all.<ref>Manga Chapters 121: The Holmes Freak Case: The Revelation</ref> Ever since that revelation, Heiji has been helping Conan in hiding his secret identity, though he constantly slips up by calling him "Kudo" in front of [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and Kazuha. <br />
<br />
Heiji and Conan most often congenially team up to solve assorted cases. Heiji has also helped Conan investigate the [[Black Organization]] on several occasions, such as when the two investigated [[Jodie Starling]],<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=34|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 2-7|language=English}}</ref> or when Heiji investigated [[Eisuke Hondou]] on his own and then told Conan his findings<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=56|chapter=Files 7|language=Japanese}}</ref>, but he never had a real direct confrontation with the primary antagonist. He has also helped cover for Conan during several of the brief instances where Conan regained his true adolescent age, and has even disguised himself as Shinichi on several occasions in order to protect his identity, even though he is not very good at it (mostly owing to his distinctive Kansai dialect). When not working on a case, he regularly attempts to invite Conan to take in the sights and culinary delights of Osaka, which he considers more wholesome than Tokyo's.<br />
{{clearleft}}<br />
<br />
== Personality ==<br />
Even while solving a case, Heiji tends to be lighthearted and good-humored, preferring to work through it with a grin on his face. He is a big fan of baseball, and is most of the time shown wearing an Osaka cap, to support the local Osaka baseball team. He usually wears his cap with its visor pointed backward, but if he feels challenged, he turns the visor forward.<br />
<br />
Heiji is known for his pride as an Osaka citizen and for his thick Osakan accent, which has been pointed out and sometimes made fun numerous times. However, Heiji holds his head high and is always one to brag about the greatness of Osaka, especially when Conan comes to visit. <br />
<br />
Despite him knowing the value and necessity of remaining calm in the face of a crime, Heiji tends to be impulsive at times, which tends to cloud his judgment a little. This was discussed directly in the "Detective Koushien" case, when [[Saguru Hakuba]] accused Heiji of being a poor detective for disrupting a crime scene in his rush to see if the victim could still be saved. Heiji, however, solved the case in the end, and reminded Saguru that the detective's first job is to prevent death if he can. Heiji is also known to be extremely protective of those he values as close friends, and tries hard to keep them out of harm. There are several instances where Hattori tells Kazuha to wait for him or leaves her behind in order to keep her from being involved in cases, simply because he's afraid of her getting hurt.<ref>Manga Volume 59, File 6, pg 6: Armored Warrior</ref><ref>Manga Volume 59, File 7, pg 11: Art of War</ref><ref name=653p3>Manga Volume 63, File 1, page 3: My Deduction</ref><br />
<br />
Furthermore, he's pretty much always watching Shinichi's back, and does whatever he can to not only keep Shinichi safe, but to keep his identity under cover. However, on one occasion Heiji advised Conan to tell the truth, when Ran had convinced herself that Conan was Shinichi and thus willingly gave him blood after being shot. <br />
<br />
Heiji occasionally enjoys teasing Shinichi's kid form. He has fun jokingly (sometimes mistakenly) calling Conan "Kudo" in front of Ran at his friend's expense. He often treats Conan/ Shinichi as a younger brother and their close relationship even evokes Kazuha's jealousy from time to time. In return Conan truly trusts and respects Heiji.<br />
<br />
Although he is very competitive when it comes to detective cases, when a case gets hot, he and Shinichi work effectively together. During Shinichi's first return to his high school during the play performance, Heiji had let him take the lead role in the investigations, saying that it was because they were in Tokyo, Shinichi's turf.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=26|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 1-7|language=English}}</ref> <br />
<br />
Although he frequently mocks Kazuha for her superstitions and enthusiasm for good-luck charms, Heiji has several times revealed that he puts more trust in them than he would admit. He once dreamed of Shinichi being murdered, and out subsequently insisted that Conan wear his omamori, the good luck charm Kazuha gave him. The omamori ended up saving Shinichi's life by deflecting a knife blow, but Heiji, without his usual protection, was shot in the stomach.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=19|chapter=Files 5-8|language=Japanese}}</ref> In another case, Ran hung a teruterubozu, a charm that's supposed to ensure good weather, in the window so that Conan would have good weather for his field trip the next day. Heiji, however, got up in the middle of the night to take down the teruterubozu so that Conan's field trip would be rained out and he could accompany Heiji on an investigation of the The Red Horse Among The Flames.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=39|language=Japanese}}</ref><br />
<br />
During the "Bond of Fire" case, Heiji questions Conan if they were right in stopping the culprit from committing suicide, leading to the latter responding that if a detective knows a criminal is about to commit suicide and does nothing to stop it, then the detective is no better than a murderer. Heiji takes to this heart, as evidenced by him stopping the serial murderer in the "Stabbed Wallet" case from committing suicide.<br />
<br />
His relationship with Shinichi/Conan from his end. In Heiji's first appearance, he traveled all the way to Tokyo to challenge Shinichi Kudo to a deduction battle so he could win and show he was the superior detective of the two. After Shinichi solves the case (which included correcting Heiji's wrong assumptions), the Tokyoite detective then gives a short speech to the Osakan that there's no such thing as the superior or inferior detective, only the truth; Heiji is left both speechless and amazed. Throughout his subsequent appearances,(which involved deducing "Conan's" real identity), Heiji may have kept his competitiveness towards his fellow detective, but he now considers Shinichi/Conan to be his partner and best friend, willing to do anything to ensure his happiness and safety.<br />

== Appearance ==<br />
[[File:vlcsnap-2013-09-20-15h27m58s194.png|thumb|right|200px|Heiji talks about his skin color in movie 7.]]<br />
Heiji is a handsome man with dark brown, spiky hair and dark brown skin which he claims is inherited from his grandfather.<ref>Chapter 278</ref> His eyes are blue in the manga (like every character). Initially, his eyes appeared dark green, but are now blue<ref>Episode 710</ref>. He speaks with a strong Kansai Ben accent, which is typical of the Osaka region. Since Heiji is so strongly accustomed to this accent, his lingual habit can be a disadvantage at times, especially when he has to impersonate someone who uses standard Japanese.<ref>[[Volume 26# School Play Case|Manga Chapter 256: ''Concealed Truth'']]</ref><ref>OVA 06: ''[[Follow the Vanished Diamond! Conan & Heiji vs. Kid!]]''</ref> He has a scar behind the left ear from being hit during an Oyodo competition as said in episode 263.<br />
<br />
He has also been shown to be popular with girls due to his good looks, position as kendo captain at his high school, and his fame as a high school detective. For example, in episode 263 when several girls tried to flirt with him but he had switched his gear with another team member to make a last minute call to Conan to visit his match. This was shown in Magic File 4: The Osaka Okonomiyaki Killer where several girls came to ask for an autograph and in [[OVA 9]], he was referred to as a lady killer.<br />

<br />
== Skills ==<br />
=== Keen Intellect ===<br />
Heiji's detective skills are the same as Shinichi's. Because of his skills, Heiji has acquired his nickname "The Great Detective Of The West." Like Shinichi, he has a keen eye for details, and can spot any unusual aspects in a case that most people tend to ignore or not take into account and has extraordinarily broad and deep knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to recall every detail of an investigation, and may have a photographic memory to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Heiji's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony. However, unlike Shinichi, Heiji seem to be more competitive and hot-blooded while solving a case, which sometimes leads him into making a wrong deduction [[Diplomat Murder Case|i.e. the case in his first appearance.]] Like the other "genius" detectives, Heiji has shown himself to have an eidetic memory, capable of remembering complex letter and number sequences at only a glance, such as when he was able to solve a code in his head during the "Heiji and Kazuha in Grave Danger" arc, and even reproduce another message using the same code to text to Conan. When Heiji and Shinichi work together, they're each other's equal and will often arrive at the same conclusions. But when they compete with each other or their deductions differ, Shinichi usually wins. Recent cases have begun to subvert this, but usually only with subjects Heiji specializes in - e.g. kendo. He is also good if it comes to someone who has his own dialect, Kansai dialect.<br />
<br />
=== Athletic ability ===<br />
Heiji is the fifth position, or taisho, and captain of his high school Kendo team. Heiji may disable criminals using an improvised bokken similar to how Conan uses his soccer skills. Heiji is also very nimble, able to jump higher than a bookshelf, seamlessly scale the side of the staircase, and balance perfectly on a katana. This is shown in episode 263 of the anime, when Kotegawa tries to kill him.<br />
<br />
=== Others ===<br />
Heiji is also a capable motorcycle rider. He also speaks fluent English.<ref>[[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective]]</ref> Heiji has shown to have the ability to deduce a woman's swimsuit without actually looking at it.<ref>[[Solitary Island of the Princess and the Dragon King's Palace]]</ref> He is also shown to have a "Kudou Radar" where he correctly guessed Conan's involvement in the case without actually seeing Conan.<ref>[[Furinkazan]]</ref><br />

== Plot overview ==<br />
=== Great Detective of the West (Manga: [[Volume 10#Great Detective of the_West|92-96]], Anime: [[Diplomat Murder Case|48-49]]) ===<br />
One day, Conan (using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|Voice-Changer Tie]] to imitate [[Shinichi Kudo|his old voice]]) calls [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] to tell her once again that he is all right and that he is still stuck with the 'special case' when Ran hangs up on him as someone has just entered the detective agency. Coming home, Conan finds to his surprise that the 'customer' is a youth who keeps demanding to see Shinichi Kudo. He had read of Kogoro solving cases and jumps to the conclusion that he is getting help from Shinichi. When Ran mentions that Shinichi has just called, without asking about Ran's state, the youth deduces that Shinichi must actually be nearby, watching Ran from afar. He then introduces himself as high school detective Heiji Hattori and presents a gift, a bottle of [[baijiu]], of which he gives Conan a swig. Just then, Kimie Tsujimura, the wife of a known diplomat, enters [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]]'s office to ask him to investigate the girlfriend of her son. In order to be inconspicuous, Kogoro takes Ran and Conan along, and Heiji, hoping to flush out Shinichi, tags along as well. What is originally meant to be a simple investigation job turns out to be a murder case, as they find Kimie's husband slain at his desk.<br />
<br />
=== Holmes Freak Case (Manga: [[Volume 12#Holmes Freak Case|117-121]], Anime: [[Holmes Freak Murder Case|57-58]]) ===<br />
After this first case, it only takes one more run-in with Conan to get Heiji thinking about the similarities between Conan and Shinichi. It is on the "[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]" that Heiji, despite professing a preference for [[Wikipedia: Ellery Queen|Ellery Queen]], exercises the Holmesian axiom: "When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." In addition, after Conan had [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|knocked him out]] to use him as his mouthpiece to present his evidence, Heiji receives a clout on the head from [[Kogoro Mouri]], which wakes him up again, and from the corner of his eye he spies Conan standing behind him and using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie]] to mimic his voice; he thus discovers Conan's secret, which forces Conan to explain his situation.<br />
<br />
=== Bond of Fire Case (Manga: [[Volume 15#Bond of Fire Case|150-153]], Anime: [[Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case|77-78]]) ===<br />
On their third case together, Conan was initially irritated to see Heiji, but they quickly formed a strong team. Together they cornered the murderer and even took steps to preventing the suicide she had planned. When she realizes that she won't be able to kill herself she weeps piteously, causing Heiji to whisper to Conan, "perhaps we should have let her die." Conan replies that "a detective who corners a murderer with logic and then lets them commit suicide is no better than a murderer."<br />
<br />
=== Mystery Writer Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Mystery Writer Case|183]], Anime: [[The Mystery Writer Disappearance Case|117]]) ===<br />
Heiji calls Conan having deciphered the text in the first new chapter, and with this information Conan manages to solve the rest of the hidden riddles.<br />
<br />
=== Stabbed Wallet Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Stabbed Wallet Case|185-188]], Anime: [[The Naniwa Serial Murder Case|118]]) ===<br />
Heiji invites Conan (and [[Kogoro Mouri]] and [[Ran Mouri]], because otherwise it'd look suspicious) to Osaka. It is revealed by [[Kazuha Toyama]] (in her first appearance) that Heiji has been talking about 'Kudo' so often that Kazuha thought 'Kudo' was his new Tokyo girlfriend. Heiji suggests that the reason he invited Conan to Osaka is because he has been worried about Conan's safety; he has had dreams of Conan being murdered. On a case together in Osaka, Heiji gives Conan his omamori, which ends up saving his life by deflecting a knife thrust. However, without it Heiji is injured while trying to prevent the murderer from committing suicide. In the ambulance, he reveals to Conan that he has taken to heart Conan's admonishment.<br />
<br />
=== Wedding Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 21#Wedding Murder Case|211-214]], Anime: [[The Night Before the Wedding Locked Room Case|141-142]]) ===<br />
Heiji and Kazuha visit Tokyo accompanied by Kogoro, Ran, and Conan. They run into Heiji's father's friend and are invited to their mansion. There a murder occurs and his father's friend is found dead in a locked room. It seems he was dragged to another room after being stabbed in the heart. Continuing the investigation, Heiji proclaims the butler was the murderer and he is taken away, screaming his innocence. Late that night, an unknown man takes the murder weapon and tries to place it in a bag, but is caught by Heiji and Conan who reveal that they placed the blame on the butler to lure out the true culprit. The culprit is revealed to be Kikuhito Morizono. He reveals that he murdered the man because he tried to cancel the wedding and take his love away from him.<br />
<br />
=== Cruise Ship Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 23#Cruise Ship Murder Case|225-230]], Anime: [[The Twenty Year Old Murderous Intent: The Symphony Serial Murder Case|174]]) ===<br />
In this episode, Heiji meets up once again with Conan and the gang on an overnight cruise in Tokyo. Unfortunately, instead of being able to spend a relaxing day on board, a serial murder case is created, leaving Heiji and Conan to work together to solve it. After they gather much of the evidence of the murder cases, Heiji and Conan share their deductions with each other only to find that, once again, their deductions are different. Heiji tries to beat Conan to the truth and goes off on his own to investigate. When he happens to come across the final piece of evidence that disproves both his and Conan's deductions, he is attacked and thrown overboard into the ocean.

Apparently, the spider god's victims are always found hanged. During their stay, they find a hanged man surrounded by web-like strings.

During a romantic scene, a man in the audience falls dead, seemingly by potassium cyanide, as revealed by a young man in the audience who appears to be Shinichi Kudo. This is quickly debunked, as Kazuha recognizes Heiji in disguise, and the real Shinichi has shown up anyway. Heiji originally planned on disguising as Shinichi in order to clear Ran's suspicions that Conan and Shinichi were one and the same, and was unaware that Shinichi would take the antidote with Haibara present in disguise as Conan.<br />

Heiji suspects Jodie-sensei of being a possible Black Organization member, and although Conan seems reluctant to support this idea, they pay Jodie-sensei a visit at her apartment. They find out here that her full name is "Jodie Saintemillion". After Jodie agrees to go out for a while with Heiji and Conan, the man living next door to Jodie falls dead outside from over 30 stories coincidentally as the three step outside. After the police arrive, it seems likely that the man committed suicide. However, Conan and Heiji have their doubts. Heiji immediately destroys the theory of suicide by showing that the man who fell from his apartment attempted to grab onto a curtain to save his life. Conan and Heiji reveal the truth by showing how the room was switched around so that when the man was drunken he would expect to be stepping out onto the balcony, but instead would wind up falling. After they solve the case, Heiji asks Jodie who she is. In reply, Jodie asks Heiji the same question. When Conan and Heiji leave, they concur that Jodie is suspicious but innocuous.

They investigate those with the surname Ito but are unable to find information about Heiji. Meanwhile, it is revealed Heiji is held hostage by Misari Ito, an attorney who is the head of a tax evasion group. Ito demands Heiji to solve a code made by Kasukawa which contains a seven-digit-code to a safe box containing evidence of her scandal. While held at gunpoint, Heiji sends a modified version of the code to Kogoro and asks him to solve it. Conan manages to solve the code, realizing that K, Q, and J stand for King, Queen, and Jack and replaces them with numbers accordingly. When Heiji receives the code back from Kogoro, he tells Misari he will tell her the seven digits and they head to the bank. Conan realizes the last three digits are actually letters and realizes what Heiji is trying to tell him and replies a modified code. Heiji tells Misari Ito he will tell her the seven digits and they head to the bank. Heiji reveals that the numbers, if placed in a 3 by 3 diagram, will create a diagram of a dice with the 1's representing the dots on a dice. Heiji reveals that the code he sent Kogoro had the letters LIB meaning Libra which is referring to the scales Libra and the attorney badge Ito has; He explains that the code "Kogoro" replied with means to "Lure One of them Out". At Ito's home, Conan knocks out the two kidnappers and frees Kazuha. The police arrive later and apprehends the criminals.<br />

At every crime scene, a horse would be found engulfed in flames, as the house where the crime occurred, gets burnt down. Humorously, all the cases that appeared to be linked to a serial killer, were not connected at all. It was all done to lessen the suspicion on the culprit's true intention of murder. During their conversation, Heiji invited Kogoro and Conan to assist him in a new case that he wished to solve. They keep a close watch on the house whose occupant had asked for their assistance, even after the one who requested them declined the service. They kept surveillance for a long time until Ran called and asked them to hurry back home for dinner. Just as they left, the house went up in flames, along with a red horse. The woman who had asked them for help was burnt to death. The case triggered the enthusiasm in the two young detectives (Conan and Heiji), and they uncovered the murderer through a joint investigation.<br />

A famous actor was murdered, but was told to have committed suicide. Heiji and Shinichi both had set out to solve the case independently, only to know time and again that the other person was just ahead of them in figuring things out.

=== Murderer Shinichi Kudo Case (Manga: [[Volume 62#Murderer Shinichi Kudo Case|646-651]], Anime: [[Murderer, Shinichi Kudo|521-522]]) ===<br />
Heiji, along with Ran, Kogoro and Kazuha, finds Shinichi with his memory completely erased, during a village trip. They are also surprised to find that almost everyone in the village seems to hate Shinichi, due to a supposedly 'stupid' and 'flawed' solution he gave about the deaths of the local leader and his wife, one year ago. A news reporter, who was present to cover the original case, accuses Shinichi of faking the memory loss and states that she knows the 'truth' about him. The next morning, the reporter is found stabbed, with no one but Shinichi in the house, and a knife with him, turning him into the one and only suspect. <br />
<br />
Heiji takes it upon himself to both prove Shinichi's innocence and hide him from the police, helped by Ran, Kogoro and Kazuha. He skilfully proves that the culprit had undergone cosmetic surgery, to impersonate Shinichi and commit a crime to destroy his reputation. The real Shinichi, too, turns up (after mistakenly ingesting [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]]'s APTX 4869 antidote prototype) to justify his deductions about the year-old double deaths.<br />
<br />
After the antidote's effects start wearing off, Heiji tries to prevent Shinichi from turning into Conan in front of Ran, by taking him to the toilet and asking him to hide in his (Heiji's) travel bag, so that he can make up some story about the disappearance and get him home.<br />

Having been given another APTX 4869 antidote prototype by Haibara and [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]], Shinichi manages to remain in his 17-year old body. While returning home in Kogoro's hired car, the group spot a dead man inside a speeding car, and are able to stop it. Heiji and Shinichi, after narrowing down the suspects, together apprehend the criminal with such finesse that even Detective [[Miwako Sato]] (who happened to be present there along with her colleague, [[Wataru Takagi]]) is left surprised. Heiji also lends Shinichi his cap to prevent him from being recognized easily, due to Shinichi's fears about the [[Black Organization]].<br />

== Non-canon plot overview ==<br />
<br />
== Relationships analysis ==<br />
=== Kazuha Toyama ===<br />
{{main|Heiji Hattori and Kazuha Toyama}}<br />
Like Shinichi's relationship with Ran, Heiji's relationship with [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] is a very close one: they know each other since their childhoods, and have stayed close through the years. Their relationship is identified as a romantic one by other characters and fans alike, even though they claim that they don't have that sort of relationship or feelings for each other. Heiji is clueless when it comes to love and in the majority of the manga and anime has not yet realized he has actual feelings for Kazuha, until recently. On the class trip where Ran and Shinichi almost share a kiss, Heiji is explicitly jealous, all the while thinking of Kazuha, even saying “[he’s] running out of places to confess.” While it’s unknown when he plans on confessing, it is clear that Heiji loves Kazuha. It has been shown that he becomes visibly jealous when he sees Kazuha with other guys, becoming distracted throughout the whole case. At one point, after a certain case, while looking at Kazuha, his thoughts read: 'Fool. You're too naive. I promise you, as long as you're with me, I'll never let anyone hurt you.'. Kazuha knows she has feelings for Heiji, as she shows this by being protective and chasing off other women that might have a interest in him In on of the mangas Kazuha attempts to confess her feelings after finding out that Shinichi had done so with Ran, but is unlucky because by telling him, Heiji ran off to tease Conan(Shinichi) for it. She one time even attempted to sacrifice herself to save Heiji during a case in which accidentally both fell off a cliff. When the branch that Heiji was holding and both of them were hanging on to was breaking, she stabbed his hand with an arrow of love to prevent him from falling and force him to let her fall; however, he still held on despite the wound. Also, they have a similar situation to Ran and Shinichi, being childhood friends that have romantic feelings for each other and have similar backgrounds. Heiji is a teenage detective and she is a police detective's daughter, like Ran is a detective's daughter and Shinichi is a teenage detective. They are even called the 'Ran and Shinichi of Osaka' by fans of the series, since they're so similar. Although they are constantly fighting, they both are very close friends. It is also shown in the seventh movie, ''[[Crossroad in the Ancient Capital]]'', that Kazuha is Heiji's first love, though he didn't know it was her at the time. In the most recent case, Heiji confessed to Kazuha when she was taken away by some suspicious men, saying "What are you doing to my Kazuha?!". When Kazuha questioned him about it, he claimed that she was wrong and there was no evidence that proves his confession (although Shinichi recorded it). Nonetheless, it is shown in the file 912 that he has actually realized his feelings for her, as Ran questions him about the confession. He denies it to her, but thinks that he needed a more important place to confess, as Kudo confessed in front of the Big Ben.<br />
<br />
=== Shinichi Kudo/Conan Edogawa ===<br />
[[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]<br />
His sharp intellect helped Heiji quickly figure out Conan's real identity as Shinichi. Heiji acts rather brotherly towards [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]], even going so far as to pretend to be him on various occasions so that no one figures out that Shinichi and Conan are the same person. Of course, this might also be to make up for all the times Heiji calls him Kudo, which has nearly given Shinichi away multiple times. Heiji is concerned for Shinichi when he gets into trouble and life-or-death situations. They are as close as real brothers, both being detectives who have romantic feelings for their childhood friends. When they're caught solving a case together, it's not unusual for their minds to move in sync; because of this and several other factors, they maintain a sort of friendly rivalry with each other. However, they are both all business when a case gets serious. Heiji has, on several occasions, declared himself to be Shinichi's best friend.<ref>English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective</ref> He also becomes extremely determined to one-up Shinichi's London confession to Ran by creating an even better setting to one day confess his love to his childhood friend, Kazuha.<br />
<br />
Even with his teasing, Heiji genuinely wants Shinichi (Conan) and Ran to become a couple. He once suggested that Shinichi tell Ran the truth about the Black Organization to ease both of their suffering.<br />
<br />
=== Ran Mouri ===<br />
Heiji and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] are very good friends, bonding after Heiji's many trips to Tokyo because he "misses Conan". Ran respects Heiji as a very skilled detective who reminds her of Shinichi, but whenever Heiji and Kazuha run into an argument, Ran seems to take Kazuha's side.<br />
<br />
Since Heiji knows that Ran is Shinichi's Girlfriend, he tends to tease Shinichi about her quite often and will give him advice on his romantic relationship with her. He is also sometimes protective of her for the sake of Shinichi, such as when [[Soshi Okita]] flirted with Ran and he told him to back off since she is "his friend's girl" referring to Shinichi.<ref>Episode 916</ref> Since it's practically identical with his relationship with Kazuha (Even though they aren't on the same level as Shinichi & Ran's romantic relationship).<br />
<br />
Heiji almost views Ran as a sister, as he will tease her from time to time and he'll help explain things to her during cases along with Kazuha.<br />
<br />
=== Heizo Hattori ===<br />
Heiji wants to become a detective, and his [[Heizo Hattori|father]] is very supportive of this, helping him solve tough cases. However, his father prefers a "tough love" approach, though mostly for the sole purpose of using Heiji to lure out a suspect.<ref>Episode 263</ref><br />
<br />
=== Shizuka Hattori ===<br />
[[Shizuka Hattori|Shizuka]] is Heiji's mother and he sometimes calls her an "old lady".<br />
<br />
=== Kogoro Mouri ===<br />
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] respects him a little as a detective, but due to Heiji being the better detective, he seems to get annoyed whenever Heiji is with him while solving cases.<br />
<br />
=== Goro Otaki ===<br />
[[Goro Otaki|Otaki]] and Heiji are very good friends.<br />
<br />
=== Juzo Megure ===<br />
Usually [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] gets a little annoyed whenever Heiji runs into a case he is handling. He often tells Kogoro to not to lose to an outsider like Heiji. Despite this, Megure respects Heiji as a very skilled detective, and he has even declared Heiji as a better detective than Shinichi.<br />
<br />
=== Momiji Ooka ===<br />
[[Momiji Ooka|Momiji]] is close to her "future husband" Heiji. According to the 21st movie (which has yet to be contradicted by the manga / anime), they met as children and played karuta together. Heiji made a "pinky promise" with her about playing more later, which Momiji mistook as a marriage proposal. Unbeknownst to Heiji, Momiji held on the promise for several years, firmly believing that they are destined to be together.<br />
However, despite Momiji's feelings for Heiji, he does not reciprocate them most likely because of his feelings for Kazuha.<br />

'''{{nihongo|Heiji Hattori|服部 平次|Hattori Heiji}}''', also known as '''Harley Hartwell''' in the Funimation dub, is an Osakan high school detective in the manga and anime series ''[[Detective Conan]]''. He is a childhood friend and the romantic interest of [[Kazuha Toyama]]. Originally a detective rival to [[Shinichi Kudo]], Heiji has since [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|found out]] [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s true identity and the two often team up to work on cases. He was the first person to ''deduce'' Conan's true identity.<br />
<br />
== Background ==<br />
[[File:Cuffed.png|thumb|left|200px|Heiji and Kazuha cuffed together as children.]]<br />
Heiji is a high school detective, and the son of [[Heizo Hattori]], chief of the Osaka Police Department, and his wife [[Shizuka Hattori]]. Heiji wants to be a detective like his father since spending his childhood looking for lost cats in his neighborhood, and he is also very skilled in kendo and has become a favored tournament contender for his school.<br />
<br />
At one time during their childhood, Heiji had had the unfortunate idea of locking himself and his friend [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] together with a set of old handcuffs which had no key to unlock it; as a result they involuntarily had to spend time together even on some rather intimate occasions (i.e., bathroom visits) before the cuffs could be removed. As a reminder of this 'closeness' and for good luck, Kazuha fashioned two identical lucky charms, each incorporating a chain link from the cuffs, which she and Heiji have been wearing ever since.<ref name=StabbedWallet>Manga Volume 19: Files 185 (Stabbed Wallet Case)</ref><br />
<br />
In the news, Heiji has been publicly declared the "Great Detective of the West", while [[Shinichi Kudo]] is the "Great Detective of the East". As a result, Heiji showed up unannounced at the Mouri Detective Agency looking for Kudo, seeking to challenge his rival to a showdown of wits. (In fact, they had such a contest before, three years previously, [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|during a skiing trip in the Yamagata prefecture]], although they never learned about each other's identities at that time.<ref>Manga Chapters 518-522: Yuki-Onna Murder Case</ref>) Heiji was soundly defeated in the following case after [[Conan Edogawa]] temporarily turned back into Shinichi, but he gained a lot of respect for Shinichi in the process.<ref>Manga Chapters 092-096: The Great Detective Of The West</ref><br />
<br />
During their second encounter, Conan knocked Heiji out to use him as the mouthpiece for the voice-changing bow-tie. But during his final presentation of the facts, Heiji awoke prematurely and discovered Conan's secret, and in the end managed to blackmail Conan into revealing all.<ref>Manga Chapters 121: The Holmes Freak Case: The Revelation</ref> Ever since that revelation, Heiji has been helping Conan in hiding his secret identity, though he constantly slips up by calling him "Kudo" in front of [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and Kazuha. <br />
<br />
Heiji and Conan most often congenially team up to solve assorted cases. Heiji has also helped Conan investigate the [[Black Organization]] on several occasions, such as when the two investigated [[Jodie Starling]],<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=34|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 2-7|language=English}}</ref> or when Heiji investigated [[Eisuke Hondou]] on his own and then told Conan his findings<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=56|chapter=Files 7|language=Japanese}}</ref>, but he never had a real direct confrontation with the primary antagonist. He has also helped cover for Conan during several of the brief instances where Conan regained his true adolescent age, and has even disguised himself as Shinichi on several occasions in order to protect his identity, even though he is not very good at it (mostly owing to his distinctive Kansai dialect). When not working on a case, he regularly attempts to invite Conan to take in the sights and culinary delights of Osaka, which he considers more wholesome than Tokyo's.<br />
{{clearleft}}<br />
<br />
== Personality ==<br />
Even while solving a case, Heiji tends to be lighthearted and good-humored, preferring to work through it with a grin on his face. He is a big fan of baseball, and is most of the time shown wearing an Osaka cap, to support the local Osaka baseball team. He usually wears his cap with its visor pointed backward, but if he feels challenged, he turns the visor forward.<br />
<br />
Heiji is known for his pride as an Osaka citizen and for his thick Osakan accent, which has been pointed out and sometimes made fun numerous times. However, Heiji holds his head high and is always one to brag about the greatness of Osaka, especially when Conan comes to visit. <br />
<br />
Despite him knowing the value and necessity of remaining calm in the face of a crime, Heiji tends to be impulsive at times, which tends to cloud his judgment a little. This was discussed directly in the "Detective Koushien" case, when [[Saguru Hakuba]] accused Heiji of being a poor detective for disrupting a crime scene in his rush to see if the victim could still be saved. Heiji, however, solved the case in the end, and reminded Saguru that the detective's first job is to prevent death if he can. Heiji is also known to be extremely protective of those he values as close friends, and tries hard to keep them out of harm. There are several instances where Hattori tells Kazuha to wait for him or leaves her behind in order to keep her from being involved in cases, simply because he's afraid of her getting hurt.<ref>Manga Volume 59, File 6, pg 6: Armored Warrior</ref><ref>Manga Volume 59, File 7, pg 11: Art of War</ref><ref name=653p3>Manga Volume 63, File 1, page 3: My Deduction</ref><br />
<br />
Furthermore, he's pretty much always watching Shinichi's back, and does whatever he can to not only keep Shinichi safe, but to keep his identity under cover. However, on one occasion Heiji advised Conan to tell the truth, when Ran had convinced herself that Conan was Shinichi and thus willingly gave him blood after being shot. <br />
<br />
Heiji occasionally enjoys teasing Shinichi's kid form. He has fun jokingly (sometimes mistakenly) calling Conan "Kudo" in front of Ran at his friend's expense. He often treats Conan/ Shinichi as a younger brother and their close relationship even evokes Kazuha's jealousy from time to time. In return Conan truly trusts and respects Heiji.<br />
<br />
Although he is very competitive when it comes to detective cases, when a case gets hot, he and Shinichi work effectively together. During Shinichi's first return to his high school during the play performance, Heiji had let him take the lead role in the investigations, saying that it was because they were in Tokyo, Shinichi's turf.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=26|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 1-7|language=English}}</ref> <br />
<br />
Although he frequently mocks Kazuha for her superstitions and enthusiasm for good-luck charms, Heiji has several times revealed that he puts more trust in them than he would admit. He once dreamed of Shinichi being murdered, and out subsequently insisted that Conan wear his omamori, the good luck charm Kazuha gave him. The omamori ended up saving Shinichi's life by deflecting a knife blow, but Heiji, without his usual protection, was shot in the stomach.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=19|chapter=Files 5-8|language=Japanese}}</ref> In another case, Ran hung a teruterubozu, a charm that's supposed to ensure good weather, in the window so that Conan would have good weather for his field trip the next day. Heiji, however, got up in the middle of the night to take down the teruterubozu so that Conan's field trip would be rained out and he could accompany Heiji on an investigation of the The Red Horse Among The Flames.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=39|language=Japanese}}</ref><br />
<br />
During the "Bond of Fire" case, Heiji questions Conan if they were right in stopping the culprit from committing suicide, leading to the latter responding that if a detective knows a criminal is about to commit suicide and does nothing to stop it, then the detective is no better than a murderer. Heiji takes to this heart, as evidenced by him stopping the serial murderer in the "Stabbed Wallet" case from committing suicide.<br />
<br />
His relationship with Shinichi/Conan from his end. In Heiji's first appearance, he traveled all the way to Tokyo to challenge Shinichi Kudo to a deduction battle so he could win and show he was the superior detective of the two. After Shinichi solves the case (which included correcting Heiji's wrong assumptions), the Tokyoite detective then gives a short speech to the Osakan that there's no such thing as the superior or inferior detective, only the truth; Heiji is left both speechless and amazed. Throughout his subsequent appearances,(which involved deducing "Conan's" real identity), Heiji may have kept his competitiveness towards his fellow detective, but he now considers Shinichi/Conan to be his partner and best friend, willing to do anything to ensure his happiness and safety.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Appearance ==<br />
[[File:vlcsnap-2013-09-20-15h27m58s194.png|thumb|right|200px|Heiji talks about his skin color in movie 7.]]<br />
Heiji is a handsome man with dark brown, spiky hair and dark brown skin which he claims is inherited from his grandfather.<ref>Chapter 278</ref> His eyes are blue in the manga (like every character). Initially, his eyes appeared dark green, but are now blue<ref>Episode 710</ref>. He speaks with a strong Kansai Ben accent, which is typical of the Osaka region. Since Heiji is so strongly accustomed to this accent, his lingual habit can be a disadvantage at times, especially when he has to impersonate someone who uses standard Japanese.<ref>[[Volume 26# School Play Case|Manga Chapter 256: ''Concealed Truth'']]</ref><ref>OVA 06: ''[[Follow the Vanished Diamond! Conan & Heiji vs. Kid!]]''</ref> He has a scar behind the left ear from being hit during an Oyodo competition as said in episode 263.<br />
<br />
He has also been shown to be popular with girls due to his good looks, position as kendo captain at his high school, and his fame as a high school detective. For example, in episode 263 when several girls tried to flirt with him but he had switched his gear with another team member to make a last minute call to Conan to visit his match. This was shown in Magic File 4: The Osaka Okonomiyaki Killer where several girls came to ask for an autograph and in [[OVA 9]], he was referred to as a lady killer.<br />
{{clear}}<br />
<br />
== Skills ==<br />
=== Keen Intellect ===<br />
Heiji's detective skills are the same as Shinichi's. Because of his skills, Heiji has acquired his nickname "The Great Detective Of The West." Like Shinichi, he has a keen eye for details, and can spot any unusual aspects in a case that most people tend to ignore or not take into account and has extraordinarily broad and deep knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to recall every detail of an investigation, and may have a photographic memory to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Heiji's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony. However, unlike Shinichi, Heiji seem to be more competitive and hot-blooded while solving a case, which sometimes leads him into making a wrong deduction [[Diplomat Murder Case|i.e. the case in his first appearance.]] Like the other "genius" detectives, Heiji has shown himself to have an eidetic memory, capable of remembering complex letter and number sequences at only a glance, such as when he was able to solve a code in his head during the "Heiji and Kazuha in Grave Danger" arc, and even reproduce another message using the same code to text to Conan. When Heiji and Shinichi work together, they're each other's equal and will often arrive at the same conclusions. But when they compete with each other or their deductions differ, Shinichi usually wins. Recent cases have begun to subvert this, but usually only with subjects Heiji specializes in - e.g. kendo. He is also good if it comes to someone who has his own dialect, Kansai dialect.<br />
<br />
=== Athletic ability ===<br />
Heiji is the fifth position, or taisho, and captain of his high school Kendo team. Heiji may disable criminals using an improvised bokken similar to how Conan uses his soccer skills. Heiji is also very nimble, able to jump higher than a bookshelf, seamlessly scale the side of the staircase, and balance perfectly on a katana. This is shown in episode 263 of the anime, when Kotegawa tries to kill him.<br />
<br />
=== Others ===<br />
Heiji is also a capable motorcycle rider. He also speaks fluent English.<ref>[[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective]]</ref> Heiji has shown to have the ability to deduce a woman's swimsuit without actually looking at it.<ref>[[Solitary Island of the Princess and the Dragon King's Palace]]</ref> He is also shown to have a "Kudou Radar" where he correctly guessed Conan's involvement in the case without actually seeing Conan.<ref>[[Furinkazan]]</ref><br />

== Plot overview ==<br />
=== Great Detective of the West (Manga: [[Volume 10#Great Detective of the_West|92-96]], Anime: [[Diplomat Murder Case|48-49]]) ===<br />
One day, Conan (using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|Voice-Changer Tie]] to imitate [[Shinichi Kudo|his old voice]]) calls [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] to tell her once again that he is all right and that he is still stuck with the 'special case' when Ran hangs up on him as someone has just entered the detective agency. Coming home, Conan finds to his surprise that the 'customer' is a youth who keeps demanding to see Shinichi Kudo. He had read of Kogoro solving cases and jumps to the conclusion that he is getting help from Shinichi. When Ran mentions that Shinichi has just called, without asking about Ran's state, the youth deduces that Shinichi must actually be nearby, watching Ran from afar. He then introduces himself as high school detective Heiji Hattori and presents a gift, a bottle of [[baijiu]], of which he gives Conan a swig. Just then, Kimie Tsujimura, the wife of a known diplomat, enters [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]]'s office to ask him to investigate the girlfriend of her son. In order to be inconspicuous, Kogoro takes Ran and Conan along, and Heiji, hoping to flush out Shinichi, tags along as well. What is originally meant to be a simple investigation job turns out to be a murder case, as they find Kimie's husband slain at his desk.<br />
<br />
=== Holmes Freak Case (Manga: [[Volume 12#Holmes Freak Case|117-121]], Anime: [[Holmes Freak Murder Case|57-58]]) ===<br />
After this first case, it only takes one more run-in with Conan to get Heiji thinking about the similarities between Conan and Shinichi. It is on the "[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]" that Heiji, despite professing a preference for [[Wikipedia: Ellery Queen|Ellery Queen]], exercises the Holmesian axiom: "When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." In addition, after Conan had [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|knocked him out]] to use him as his mouthpiece to present his evidence, Heiji receives a clout on the head from [[Kogoro Mouri]], which wakes him up again, and from the corner of his eye he spies Conan standing behind him and using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie]] to mimic his voice; he thus discovers Conan's secret, which forces Conan to explain his situation.<br />
<br />
=== Bond of Fire Case (Manga: [[Volume 15#Bond of Fire Case|150-153]], Anime: [[Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case|77-78]]) ===<br />
On their third case together, Conan was initially irritated to see Heiji, but they quickly formed a strong team. Together they cornered the murderer and even took steps to preventing the suicide she had planned. When she realizes that she won't be able to kill herself she weeps piteously, causing Heiji to whisper to Conan, "perhaps we should have let her die." Conan replies that "a detective who corners a murderer with logic and then lets them commit suicide is no better than a murderer."<br />
<br />
=== Mystery Writer Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Mystery Writer Case|183]], Anime: [[The Mystery Writer Disappearance Case|117]]) ===<br />
Heiji calls Conan having deciphered the text in the first new chapter, and with this information Conan manages to solve the rest of the hidden riddles.<br />
<br />
=== Stabbed Wallet Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Stabbed Wallet Case|185-188]], Anime: [[The Naniwa Serial Murder Case|118]]) ===<br />
Heiji invites Conan (and [[Kogoro Mouri]] and [[Ran Mouri]], because otherwise it'd look suspicious) to Osaka. It is revealed by [[Kazuha Toyama]] (in her first appearance) that Heiji has been talking about 'Kudo' so often that Kazuha thought 'Kudo' was his new Tokyo girlfriend. Heiji suggests that the reason he invited Conan to Osaka is because he has been worried about Conan's safety; he has had dreams of Conan being murdered. On a case together in Osaka, Heiji gives Conan his omamori, which ends up saving his life by deflecting a knife thrust. However, without it Heiji is injured while trying to prevent the murderer from committing suicide. In the ambulance, he reveals to Conan that he has taken to heart Conan's admonishment.<br />
<br />
=== Wedding Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 21#Wedding Murder Case|211-214]], Anime: [[The Night Before the Wedding Locked Room Case|141-142]]) ===<br />
Heiji and Kazuha visit Tokyo accompanied by Kogoro, Ran, and Conan. They run into Heiji's father's friend and are invited to their mansion. There a murder occurs and his father's friend is found dead in a locked room. It seems he was dragged to another room after being stabbed in the heart. Continuing the investigation, Heiji proclaims the butler was the murderer and he is taken away, screaming his innocence. Late that night, an unknown man takes the murder weapon and tries to place it in a bag, but is caught by Heiji and Conan who reveal that they placed the blame on the butler to lure out the true culprit. The culprit is revealed to be Kikuhito Morizono. He reveals that he murdered the man because he tried to cancel the wedding and take his love away from him.<br />
<br />
=== Cruise Ship Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 23#Cruise Ship Murder Case|225-230]], Anime: [[The Twenty Year Old Murderous Intent: The Symphony Serial Murder Case|174]]) ===<br />
In this episode, Heiji meets up once again with Conan and the gang on an overnight cruise in Tokyo. Unfortunately, instead of being able to spend a relaxing day on board, a serial murder case is created, leaving Heiji and Conan to work together to solve it. After they gather much of the evidence of the murder cases, Heiji and Conan share their deductions with each other only to find that, once again, their deductions are different. Heiji tries to beat Conan to the truth and goes off on his own to investigate. When he happens to come across the final piece of evidence that disproves both his and Conan's deductions, he is attacked and thrown overboard into the ocean. Later, Conan realizes that he's missing and is extremely concerned.<br />
<br />

Heiji and Kazuha, on their way to the mansion, find one of the residents who is also lost: an American named Robert Taylor who is a photographer. The three are picked up by Kogoro and co. in a truck. Apparently, the spider god's victims are always found hanged. During their stay, they find a hanged man surrounded by web-like strings.

During a romantic scene, a man in the audience falls dead, seemingly by potassium cyanide, as revealed by a young man in the audience who appears to be Shinichi Kudo. This is quickly debunked, as Kazuha recognizes Heiji in disguise, and the real Shinichi has shown up anyway. Heiji originally planned on disguising as Shinichi in order to clear Ran's suspicions that Conan and Shinichi were one and the same, and was unaware that Shinichi would take the antidote with Haibara present in disguise as Conan.<br />
<br />

Three famous athletes from America are going to be there also. Once Heiji tells Conan who the three athletes are, Conan accepts the invitation.

Heiji suspects Jodie-sensei of being a possible Black Organization member, and although Conan seems reluctant to support this idea, they pay Jodie-sensei a visit at her apartment. They find out here that her full name is "Jodie Saintemillion". After Jodie agrees to go out for a while with Heiji and Conan, the man living next door to Jodie falls dead outside from over 30 stories coincidentally as the three step outside. After the police arrive, it seems likely that the man committed suicide. However, Conan and Heiji have their doubts. Heiji immediately destroys the theory of suicide by showing that the man who fell from his apartment attempted to grab onto a curtain to save his life. Conan and Heiji reveal the truth by showing how the room was switched around so that when the man was drunken he would expect to be stepping out onto the balcony, but instead would wind up falling. After they solve the case, Heiji asks Jodie who she is. In reply, Jodie asks Heiji the same question. When Conan and Heiji leave, they concur that Jodie is suspicious but innocuous.

=== Mysterious Words Case (Manga: [[Volume 35#Mysterious Words Case|361-365]], Anime: [[Solitary Island of the Princess and the Dragon King's Palace|291-293]]) ===<br />
<br />
=== Heiji Hattori's Desperate Situation (Manga: [[Volume 38#Heiji Hattori's Desperate Situation|390-392]], Anime: [[Heiji Hattori's Desperate Situation!|323-324]]) ===<br />
<br />
Heiji, Kazuha and a man named Kasukawa are held hostage in an attic of someone's home. Meanwhile, Conan, Ran, and Kogoro are tired of waiting for the two and begin searching for them based on clues from the last phone call. They investigate Detective Kasukawa's home and discover evidence that Heiji had been there. Conan finds a memo which discloses Kenbashi City, Ito Residence. They investigate those with the surname Ito but are unable to find information about Heiji. Meanwhile, it is revealed Heiji is held hostage by Misari Ito, an attorney who is the head of a tax evasion group. Ito demands Heiji to solve a code made by Kasukawa which contains a seven-digit-code to a safe box containing evidence of her scandal. While held at gunpoint, Heiji sends a modified version of the code to Kogoro and asks him to solve it. Conan manages to solve the code, realizing that K, Q, and J stand for King, Queen, and Jack and replaces them with numbers accordingly. When Heiji receives the code back from Kogoro, he tells Misari he will tell her the seven digits and they head to the bank. Conan realizes the last three digits are actually letters and realizes what Heiji is trying to tell him and replies a modified code. Heiji tells Misari Ito he will tell her the seven digits and they head to the bank. Heiji reveals that the numbers, if placed in a 3 by 3 diagram, will create a diagram of a dice with the 1's representing the dots on a dice. Heiji reveals that the code he sent Kogoro had the letters LIB meaning Libra which is referring to the scales Libra and the attorney badge Ito has; He explains that the code "Kogoro" replied with means to "Lure One of them Out". At Ito's home, Conan knocks out the two kidnappers and frees Kazuha. The police arrive later and apprehends the criminals.<br />
<br />
=== Red Horse Case (Manga: [[Volume 39#Red Horse Case|393-397]], Anime: [[The Red Horse within the Flames|325-327]]) ===<br />
While Heiji and Kazuha were having dinner over at [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]]'s place, Kogoro started to discuss about the serial cases that have been occurring in the area. At every crime scene, a horse would be found engulfed in flames, as the house where the crime occurred, gets burnt down. Humorously, all the cases that appeared to be linked to a serial killer, were not connected at all. It was all done to lessen the suspicion on the culprit's true intention of murder. During their conversation, Heiji invited Kogoro and Conan to assist him in a new case that he wished to solve. They keep a close watch on the house whose occupant had asked for their assistance, even after the one who requested them declined the service. They kept surveillance for a long time until Ran called and asked them to hurry back home for dinner. Just as they left, the house went up in flames, along with a red horse. The woman who had asked them for help was burnt to death. The case triggered the enthusiasm in the two young detectives (Conan and Heiji), and they uncovered the murderer through a joint investigation.<br />

Through a phone call between Heiji and Conan (Shinichi), Heiji mentions that he had come across another young detective in the past who seemed more brilliant than him. A flashback then occurs to reveal what had happened before. It was on a middle school trip among many different schools when a crime happened. A famous actor was murdered, but was told to have committed suicide. Heiji and Shinichi both had set out to solve the case independently, only to know time and again that the other person was just ahead of them in figuring things out. The two detectives had unknowingly solved the same case and stumbled upon the same conclusion, without knowing who the other person is. At the end of the episode it is revealed that the totally awesome detective that Heiji is talking about, is none other than Shinichi.<br />

Heiji, along with Ran, Kogoro and Kazuha, finds Shinichi with his memory completely erased, during a village trip. They are also surprised to find that almost everyone in the village seems to hate Shinichi, due to a supposedly 'stupid' and 'flawed' solution he gave about the deaths of the local leader and his wife, one year ago. A news reporter, who was present to cover the original case, accuses Shinichi of faking the memory loss and states that she knows the 'truth' about him. The next morning, the reporter is found stabbed, with no one but Shinichi in the house, and a knife with him, turning him into the one and only suspect. <br />
<br />
Heiji takes it upon himself to both prove Shinichi's innocence and hide him from the police, helped by Ran, Kogoro and Kazuha. He skilfully proves that the culprit had undergone cosmetic surgery, to impersonate Shinichi and commit a crime to destroy his reputation. The real Shinichi, too, turns up (after mistakenly ingesting [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]]'s APTX 4869 antidote prototype) to justify his deductions about the year-old double deaths.<br />
<br />
After the antidote's effects start wearing off, Heiji tries to prevent Shinichi from turning into Conan in front of Ran, by taking him to the toilet and asking him to hide in his (Heiji's) travel bag, so that he can make up some story about the disappearance and get him home.<br />

Heiji and Shinichi, after narrowing down the suspects, together apprehend the criminal with such finesse that even Detective [[Miwako Sato]] (who happened to be present there along with her colleague, [[Wataru Takagi]]) is left surprised. Heiji also lends Shinichi his cap to prevent him from being recognized easily, due to Shinichi's fears about the [[Black Organization]].<br />

== Non-canon plot overview ==<br />
<br />
== Relationships analysis ==<br />
=== Kazuha Toyama ===<br />
{{main|Heiji Hattori and Kazuha Toyama}}<br />
Like Shinichi's relationship with Ran, Heiji's relationship with [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] is a very close one: they know each other since their childhoods, and have stayed close through the years. Their relationship is identified as a romantic one by other characters and fans alike, even though they claim that they don't have that sort of relationship or feelings for each other. Heiji is clueless when it comes to love and in the majority of the manga and anime has not yet realized he has actual feelings for Kazuha, until recently. On the class trip where Ran and Shinichi almost share a kiss, Heiji is explicitly jealous, all the while thinking of Kazuha, even saying “[he’s] running out of places to confess.” While it’s unknown when he plans on confessing, it is clear that Heiji loves Kazuha. It has been shown that he becomes visibly jealous when he sees Kazuha with other guys, becoming distracted throughout the whole case. At one point, after a certain case, while looking at Kazuha, his thoughts read: 'Fool. You're too naive. I promise you, as long as you're with me, I'll never let anyone hurt you.'. Kazuha knows she has feelings for Heiji, as she shows this by being protective and chasing off other women that might have a interest in him In on of the mangas Kazuha attempts to confess her feelings after finding out that Shinichi had done so with Ran, but is unlucky because by telling him, Heiji ran off to tease Conan(Shinichi) for it. She one time even attempted to sacrifice herself to save Heiji during a case in which accidentally both fell off a cliff. When the branch that Heiji was holding and both of them were hanging on to was breaking, she stabbed his hand with an arrow of love to prevent him from falling and force him to let her fall; however, he still held on despite the wound. Also, they have a similar situation to Ran and Shinichi, being childhood friends that have romantic feelings for each other and have similar backgrounds. Heiji is a teenage detective and she is a police detective's daughter, like Ran is a detective's daughter and Shinichi is a teenage detective. They are even called the 'Ran and Shinichi of Osaka' by fans of the series, since they're so similar. Although they are constantly fighting, they both are very close friends. It is also shown in the seventh movie, ''[[Crossroad in the Ancient Capital]]'', that Kazuha is Heiji's first love, though he didn't know it was her at the time. In the most recent case, Heiji confessed to Kazuha when she was taken away by some suspicious men, saying "What are you doing to my Kazuha?!". When Kazuha questioned him about it, he claimed that she was wrong and there was no evidence that proves his confession (although Shinichi recorded it). Nonetheless, it is shown in the file 912 that he has actually realized his feelings for her, as Ran questions him about the confession. He denies it to her, but thinks that he needed a more important place to confess, as Kudo confessed in front of the Big Ben.<br />
<br />
=== Shinichi Kudo/Conan Edogawa ===<br />
[[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]<br />
His sharp intellect helped Heiji quickly figure out Conan's real identity as Shinichi. Heiji acts rather brotherly towards [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]], even going so far as to pretend to be him on various occasions so that no one figures out that Shinichi and Conan are the same person. Of course, this might also be to make up for all the times Heiji calls him Kudo, which has nearly given Shinichi away multiple times. Heiji is concerned for Shinichi when he gets into trouble and life-or-death situations. They are as close as real brothers, both being detectives who have romantic feelings for their childhood friends. When they're caught solving a case together, it's not unusual for their minds to move in sync; because of this and several other factors, they maintain a sort of friendly rivalry with each other. However, they are both all business when a case gets serious. Heiji has, on several occasions, declared himself to be Shinichi's best friend.<ref>English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective</ref> He also becomes extremely determined to one-up Shinichi's London confession to Ran by creating an even better setting to one day confess his love to his childhood friend, Kazuha.<br />
<br />
Even with his teasing, Heiji genuinely wants Shinichi (Conan) and Ran to become a couple. He once suggested that Shinichi tell Ran the truth about the Black Organization to ease both of their suffering.<br />
<br />
=== Ran Mouri ===<br />
Heiji and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] are very good friends, bonding after Heiji's many trips to Tokyo because he "misses Conan". Ran respects Heiji as a very skilled detective who reminds her of Shinichi, but whenever Heiji and Kazuha run into an argument, Ran seems to take Kazuha's side.<br />
<br />
Since Heiji knows that Ran is Shinichi's Girlfriend, he tends to tease Shinichi about her quite often and will give him advice on his romantic relationship with her. He is also sometimes protective of her for the sake of Shinichi, such as when [[Soshi Okita]] flirted with Ran and he told him to back off since she is "his friend's girl" referring to Shinichi.<ref>Episode 916</ref> Since it's practically identical with his relationship with Kazuha (Even though they aren't on the same level as Shinichi & Ran's romantic relationship).<br />
<br />
Heiji almost views Ran as a sister, as he will tease her from time to time and he'll help explain things to her during cases along with Kazuha.<br />
<br />
=== Heizo Hattori ===<br />
Heiji wants to become a detective, and his [[Heizo Hattori|father]] is very supportive of this, helping him solve tough cases. However, his father prefers a "tough love" approach, though mostly for the sole purpose of using Heiji to lure out a suspect.<ref>Episode 263</ref><br />
<br />
=== Shizuka Hattori ===<br />
[[Shizuka Hattori|Shizuka]] is Heiji's mother and he sometimes calls her an "old lady".<br />
<br />
=== Kogoro Mouri ===<br />
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] respects him a little as a detective, but due to Heiji being the better detective, he seems to get annoyed whenever Heiji is with him while solving cases.<br />
<br />
=== Goro Otaki ===<br />
[[Goro Otaki|Otaki]] and Heiji are very good friends.<br />
<br />
=== Juzo Megure ===<br />
Usually [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] gets a little annoyed whenever Heiji runs into a case he is handling. He often tells Kogoro to not to lose to an outsider like Heiji. Despite this, Megure respects Heiji as a very skilled detective, and he has even declared Heiji as a better detective than Shinichi.<br />
<br />
=== Momiji Ooka ===<br />
[[Momiji Ooka|Momiji]] is close to her "future husband" Heiji. According to the 21st movie (which has yet to be contradicted by the manga / anime), they met as children and played karuta together. Heiji made a "pinky promise" with her about playing more later, which Momiji mistook as a marriage proposal. Unbeknownst to Heiji, Momiji held on the promise for several years, firmly believing that they are destined to be together.<br />
However, despite Momiji's feelings for Heiji, he does not reciprocate them most likely because of his feelings for Kazuha.<br />

'''{{nihongo|Heiji Hattori|服部 平次|Hattori Heiji}}''', also known as '''Harley Hartwell''' in the Funimation dub, is an Osakan high school detective in the manga and anime series ''[[Detective Conan]]''. He is a childhood friend and the romantic interest of [[Kazuha Toyama]]. Originally a detective rival to [[Shinichi Kudo]], Heiji has since [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|found out]] [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s true identity and the two often team up to work on cases. He was the first person to ''deduce'' Conan's true identity.<br />
<br />
== Background ==<br />
[[File:Cuffed.png|thumb|left|200px|Heiji and Kazuha cuffed together as children.]]<br />
Heiji is a high school detective, and the son of [[Heizo Hattori]], chief of the Osaka Police Department, and his wife [[Shizuka Hattori]]. Heiji wants to be a detective like his father since spending his childhood looking for lost cats in his neighborhood, and he is also very skilled in kendo and has become a favored tournament contender for his school.<br />
<br />
At one time during their childhood, Heiji had had the unfortunate idea of locking himself and his friend [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] together with a set of old handcuffs which had no key to unlock it; as a result they involuntarily had to spend time together even on some rather intimate occasions (i.e., bathroom visits) before the cuffs could be removed. As a reminder of this 'closeness' and for good luck, Kazuha fashioned two identical lucky charms, each incorporating a chain link from the cuffs, which she and Heiji have been wearing ever since.<ref name=StabbedWallet>Manga Volume 19: Files 185 (Stabbed Wallet Case)</ref><br />
<br />
In the news, Heiji has been publicly declared the "Great Detective of the West", while [[Shinichi Kudo]] is the "Great Detective of the East". As a result, Heiji showed up unannounced at the Mouri Detective Agency looking for Kudo, seeking to challenge his rival to a showdown of wits. (In fact, they had such a contest before, three years previously, [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|during a skiing trip in the Yamagata prefecture]], although they never learned about each other's identities at that time.<ref>Manga Chapters 518-522: Yuki-Onna Murder Case</ref>) Heiji was soundly defeated in the following case after [[Conan Edogawa]] temporarily turned back into Shinichi, but he gained a lot of respect for Shinichi in the process.<ref>Manga Chapters 092-096: The Great Detective Of The West</ref><br />
<br />
During their second encounter, Conan knocked Heiji out to use him as the mouthpiece for the voice-changing bow-tie. But during his final presentation of the facts, Heiji awoke prematurely and discovered Conan's secret, and in the end managed to blackmail Conan into revealing all.<ref>Manga Chapters 121: The Holmes Freak Case: The Revelation</ref> Ever since that revelation, Heiji has been helping Conan in hiding his secret identity, though he constantly slips up by calling him "Kudo" in front of [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and Kazuha. <br />
<br />
Heiji and Conan most often congenially team up to solve assorted cases. Heiji has also helped Conan investigate the [[Black Organization]] on several occasions, such as when the two investigated [[Jodie Starling]],<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=34|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 2-7|language=English}}</ref> or when Heiji investigated [[Eisuke Hondou]] on his own and then told Conan his findings<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=56|chapter=Files 7|language=Japanese}}</ref>, but he never had a real direct confrontation with the primary antagonist. He has also helped cover for Conan during several of the brief instances where Conan regained his true adolescent age, and has even disguised himself as Shinichi on several occasions in order to protect his identity, even though he is not very good at it (mostly owing to his distinctive Kansai dialect). When not working on a case, he regularly attempts to invite Conan to take in the sights and culinary delights of Osaka, which he considers more wholesome than Tokyo's.<br />
{{clearleft}}<br />
<br />
== Personality ==<br />
Even while solving a case, Heiji tends to be lighthearted and good-humored, preferring to work through it with a grin on his face. He is a big fan of baseball, and is most of the time shown wearing an Osaka cap, to support the local Osaka baseball team. He usually wears his cap with its visor pointed backward, but if he feels challenged, he turns the visor forward.<br />
<br />
Heiji is known for his pride as an Osaka citizen and for his thick Osakan accent, which has been pointed out and sometimes made fun numerous times. However, Heiji holds his head high and is always one to brag about the greatness of Osaka, especially when Conan comes to visit. <br />
<br />
Despite him knowing the value and necessity of remaining calm in the face of a crime, Heiji tends to be impulsive at times, which tends to cloud his judgment a little. This was discussed directly in the "Detective Koushien" case, when [[Saguru Hakuba]] accused Heiji of being a poor detective for disrupting a crime scene in his rush to see if the victim could still be saved. Heiji, however, solved the case in the end, and reminded Saguru that the detective's first job is to prevent death if he can. Heiji is also known to be extremely protective of those he values as close friends, and tries hard to keep them out of harm. There are several instances where Hattori tells Kazuha to wait for him or leaves her behind in order to keep her from being involved in cases, simply because he's afraid of her getting hurt.<ref>Manga Volume 59, File 6, pg 6: Armored Warrior</ref><ref>Manga Volume 59, File 7, pg 11: Art of War</ref><ref name=653p3>Manga Volume 63, File 1, page 3: My Deduction</ref><br />
<br />
Furthermore, he's pretty much always watching Shinichi's back, and does whatever he can to not only keep Shinichi safe, but to keep his identity under cover. However, on one occasion Heiji advised Conan to tell the truth, when Ran had convinced herself that Conan was Shinichi and thus willingly gave him blood after being shot. <br />
<br />
Heiji occasionally enjoys teasing Shinichi's kid form. He has fun jokingly (sometimes mistakenly) calling Conan "Kudo" in front of Ran at his friend's expense. He often treats Conan/ Shinichi as a younger brother and their close relationship even evokes Kazuha's jealousy from time to time. In return Conan truly trusts and respects Heiji.<br />
<br />
Although he is very competitive when it comes to detective cases, when a case gets hot, he and Shinichi work effectively together. During Shinichi's first return to his high school during the play performance, Heiji had let him take the lead role in the investigations, saying that it was because they were in Tokyo, Shinichi's turf.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=26|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 1-7|language=English}}</ref> <br />
<br />
Although he frequently mocks Kazuha for her superstitions and enthusiasm for good-luck charms, Heiji has several times revealed that he puts more trust in them than he would admit. He once dreamed of Shinichi being murdered, and out subsequently insisted that Conan wear his omamori, the good luck charm Kazuha gave him. The omamori ended up saving Shinichi's life by deflecting a knife blow, but Heiji, without his usual protection, was shot in the stomach.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=19|chapter=Files 5-8|language=Japanese}}</ref> In another case, Ran hung a teruterubozu, a charm that's supposed to ensure good weather, in the window so that Conan would have good weather for his field trip the next day. Heiji, however, got up in the middle of the night to take down the teruterubozu so that Conan's field trip would be rained out and he could accompany Heiji on an investigation of the The Red Horse Among The Flames.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=39|language=Japanese}}</ref><br />
<br />
During the "Bond of Fire" case, Heiji questions Conan if they were right in stopping the culprit from committing suicide, leading to the latter responding that if a detective knows a criminal is about to commit suicide and does nothing to stop it, then the detective is no better than a murderer. Heiji takes to this heart, as evidenced by him stopping the serial murderer in the "Stabbed Wallet" case from committing suicide.<br />
<br />
His relationship with Shinichi/Conan from his end. In Heiji's first appearance, he traveled all the way to Tokyo to challenge Shinichi Kudo to a deduction battle so he could win and show he was the superior detective of the two. After Shinichi solves the case (which included correcting Heiji's wrong assumptions), the Tokyoite detective then gives a short speech to the Osakan that there's no such thing as the superior or inferior detective, only the truth; Heiji is left both speechless and amazed. Throughout his subsequent appearances,(which involved deducing "Conan's" real identity), Heiji may have kept his competitiveness towards his fellow detective, but he now considers Shinichi/Conan to be his partner and best friend, willing to do anything to ensure his happiness and safety.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Appearance ==<br />
[[File:vlcsnap-2013-09-20-15h27m58s194.png|thumb|right|200px|Heiji talks about his skin color in movie 7.]]<br />
Heiji is a handsome man with dark brown, spiky hair and dark brown skin which he claims is inherited from his grandfather.<ref>Chapter 278</ref> His eyes are blue in the manga (like every character). Initially, his eyes appeared dark green, but are now blue<ref>Episode 710</ref>. He speaks with a strong Kansai Ben accent, which is typical of the Osaka region. Since Heiji is so strongly accustomed to this accent, his lingual habit can be a disadvantage at times, especially when he has to impersonate someone who uses standard Japanese.<ref>[[Volume 26# School Play Case|Manga Chapter 256: ''Concealed Truth'']]</ref><ref>OVA 06: ''[[Follow the Vanished Diamond! Conan & Heiji vs. Kid!]]''</ref> He has a scar behind the left ear from being hit during an Oyodo competition as said in episode 263.<br />
<br />
He has also been shown to be popular with girls due to his good looks, position as kendo captain at his high school, and his fame as a high school detective. For example, in episode 263 when several girls tried to flirt with him but he had switched his gear with another team member to make a last minute call to Conan to visit his match. This was shown in Magic File 4: The Osaka Okonomiyaki Killer where several girls came to ask for an autograph and in [[OVA 9]], he was referred to as a lady killer.<br />
{{clear}}<br />
<br />
== Skills ==<br />
=== Keen Intellect ===<br />
Heiji's detective skills are same as Shinichi's. Because of his skills, Heiji has acquired his nick name "The Great Detective Of The West". Like Shinichi, he has a keen eye for details, and can spot any unusual aspects in a case that most people tend to ignore or not take into account and has extraordinarily broad and deep knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to recall every detail of an investigation, and may have a photographic memory to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Heiji's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony. However, unlike Shinichi, Heiji seem to be more competitive and hot-blooded while solving a case, which sometimes leads him into making a wrong deduction [[Diplomat Murder Case|i.e. the case in his first appearance.]] Like the other "geniuses" detectives, Heiji has shown himself to have an eidetic memory, capable of remembering complex letter and number sequences at only a glance, such as when he was able to solve a code in his head during the "Heiji and Kazuha in Grave Danger" arc, and even reproduce another message using the same code to text to Conan. When Heiji and Shinichi work together, they're each other's equal and will often arrive at the same conclusions. But when they compete with each other or their deductions differ, Shinichi usually wins. Recent cases have begun to subvert this, but usually only with subjects Heiji specializes in - e.g. kendo. He is also good if it comes to someone who has his own dialect, Kansai dialect.<br />
<br />
=== Athletic ability ===<br />
Heiji is the fifth position, or taisho, and captain of his high school Kendo team. Heiji may disable criminals using an improvised bokken similar to how Conan uses his soccer skills. Heiji is also very nimble, able to jump higher than a bookshelf, seamlessly scale the side of the staircase, and balance perfectly on a katana. This is shown in episode 263 of the anime, when Kotegawa tries to kill him.<br />
<br />
=== Others ===<br />
Heiji is also a capable motorcycle rider. He also speaks fluent English as shown ep 278. During episode 291, Heiji has shown to have the ability to deduce a woman's swimsuit without actually looking at it. In episode 516, he is also shown to have a "Kudou Radar" where he correctly guessed Conan's involvement in the case without actually seeing Conan.<br />

== Plot overview ==<br />
=== Great Detective of the West (Manga: [[Volume 10#Great Detective of the_West|92-96]], Anime: [[Diplomat Murder Case|48-49]]) ===<br />
One day, Conan (using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|Voice-Changer Tie]] to imitate [[Shinichi Kudo|his old voice]]) calls [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] to tell her once again that he is all right and that he is still stuck with the 'special case' when Ran hangs up on him as someone has just entered the detective agency. Coming home, Conan finds to his surprise that the 'customer' is a youth who keeps demanding to see Shinichi Kudo. He had read of Kogoro solving cases and jumps to the conclusion that he is getting help from Shinichi. When Ran mentions that Shinichi has just called, without asking about Ran's state, the youth deduces that Shinichi must actually be nearby, watching Ran from afar. He then introduces himself as high school detective Heiji Hattori and presents a gift, a bottle of [[baijiu]], of which he gives Conan a swig. Just then, Kimie Tsujimura, the wife of a known diplomat, enters [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]]'s office to ask him to investigate the girlfriend of her son. In order to be inconspicuous, Kogoro takes Ran and Conan along, and Heiji, hoping to flush out Shinichi, tags along as well. What is originally meant to be a simple investigation job turns out to be a murder case, as they find Kimie's husband slain at his desk.<br />
<br />
=== Holmes Freak Case (Manga: [[Volume 12#Holmes Freak Case|117-121]], Anime: [[Holmes Freak Murder Case|57-58]]) ===<br />
After this first case, it only takes one more run-in with Conan to get Heiji thinking about the similarities between Conan and Shinichi. It is on the "[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]" that Heiji, despite professing a preference for [[Wikipedia: Ellery Queen|Ellery Queen]], exercises the Holmesian axiom: "When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." In addition, after Conan had [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|knocked him out]] to use him as his mouthpiece to present his evidence, Heiji receives a clout on the head from [[Kogoro Mouri]], which wakes him up again, and from the corner of his eye he spies Conan standing behind him and using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie]] to mimic his voice; he thus discovers Conan's secret, which forces Conan to explain his situation.<br />
<br />
=== Bond of Fire Case (Manga: [[Volume 15#Bond of Fire Case|150-153]], Anime: [[Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case|77-78]]) ===<br />
On their third case together, Conan was initially irritated to see Heiji, but they quickly formed a strong team. Together they cornered the murderer and even took steps to preventing the suicide she had planned. When she realizes that she won't be able to kill herself she weeps piteously, causing Heiji to whisper to Conan, "perhaps we should have let her die." Conan replies that "a detective who corners a murderer with logic and then lets them commit suicide is no better than a murderer."<br />
<br />
=== Mystery Writer Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Mystery Writer Case|183]], Anime: [[The Mystery Writer Disappearance Case|117]]) ===<br />
Heiji calls Conan having deciphered the text in the first new chapter, and with this information Conan manages to solve the rest of the hidden riddles.<br />
<br />
=== Stabbed Wallet Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Stabbed Wallet Case|185-188]], Anime: [[The Naniwa Serial Murder Case|118]]) ===<br />
Heiji invites Conan (and [[Kogoro Mouri]] and [[Ran Mouri]], because otherwise it'd look suspicious) to Osaka. It is revealed by [[Kazuha Toyama]] (in her first appearance) that Heiji has been talking about 'Kudo' so often that Kazuha thought 'Kudo' was his new Tokyo girlfriend. Heiji suggests that the reason he invited Conan to Osaka is because he has been worried about Conan's safety; he has had dreams of Conan being murdered. On a case together in Osaka, Heiji gives Conan his omamori, which ends up saving his life by deflecting a knife thrust. However, without it Heiji is injured while trying to prevent the murderer from committing suicide. In the ambulance, he reveals to Conan that he has taken to heart Conan's admonishment.<br />
<br />
=== Wedding Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 21#Wedding Murder Case|211-214]], Anime: [[The Night Before the Wedding Locked Room Case|141-142]]) ===<br />
Heiji and Kazuha visit Tokyo accompanied by Kogoro, Ran, and Conan. They run into Heiji's father's friend and are invited to their mansion. There a murder occurs and his father's friend is found dead in a locked room. It seems he was dragged to another room after being stabbed in the heart. Continuing the investigation, Heiji proclaims the butler was the murderer and he is taken away, screaming his innocence. Late that night, an unknown man takes the murder weapon and tries to place it in a bag, but is caught by Heiji and Conan who reveal that they placed the blame on the butler to lure out the true culprit. The culprit is revealed to be Kikuhito Morizono. He reveals that he murdered the man because he tried to cancel the wedding and take his love away from him.<br />
<br />
=== Cruise Ship Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 23#Cruise Ship Murder Case|225-230]], Anime: [[The Twenty Year Old Murderous Intent: The Symphony Serial Murder Case|174]]) ===<br />
In this episode, Heiji meets up once again with Conan and the gang on an overnight cruise in Tokyo. Unfortunately, instead of being able to spend a relaxing day on board, a serial murder case is created, leaving Heiji and Conan to work together to solve it. After they gather much of the evidence of the murder cases, Heiji and Conan share their deductions with each other only to find that, once again, their deductions are different. Heiji tries to beat Conan to the truth and goes off on his own to investigate. When he happens to come across the final piece of evidence that disproves both his and Conan's deductions, he is attacked and thrown overboard into the ocean. Later, Conan realizes that he's missing and is extremely concerned.<br />
<br />
=== Spider Mansion Case (Manga: [[Volume 25#Spider Mansion Case|246-250]], Anime: [[Tottori Spider Mansion Demon|166-168]]) ===<br />
Kogoro and Heiji are hired to solve a murder case in a mansion supposedly haunted by a spider demon. Heiji and Kazuha, on their way to the mansion, find one of the residents who is also lost: an American named Robert Taylor who is a photographer. The three are picked up by Kogoro and co. in a truck. Apparently, the spider god's victims are always found hanged. During their stay, they find a hanged man surrounded by web-like strings. The case continues, and Conan and Heiji investigate further in the case. Conan and Heiji cooperate to reveal the murderer's identity and his trick.<br />
<br />
=== The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume 26|254-258]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|189-192]])===<br />

Ran is cast in a school play. While discussing the play with her friends backstage, Conan shows up wearing a face mask due to a cold. During a romantic scene, a man in the audience falls dead, seemingly by potassium cyanide, as revealed by a young man in the audience who appears to be Shinichi Kudo. This is quickly debunked, as Kazuha recognizes Heiji in disguise, and the real Shinichi has shown up anyway. Heiji originally planned on disguising as Shinichi in order to clear Ran's suspicions that Conan and Shinichi were one and the same, and was unaware that Shinichi would take the antidote with Haibara present in disguise as Conan.<br />
<br />
=== Old Photograph Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 28#Old Photograph Murder Case|278]], Anime: [[The Client Full of Lies|221]]) ===<br />
A woman named Shizuka Ikenami asks Kogoro to help find a man named Shiro Shibata so she could retrieve an old photograph; Conan realizes that the Ikenami is lying to Kogoro when she introduces herself for unknown reasons.

Conan and Heiji investigate the area and history of Mermaids Grave, a forest on the island. They learn that an elder who is over 130 years old is a holder of the arrow and the head of the festival. While investigating, three murders occur. Conan reveals to Heiji he knows who the murderer is and to meet him later, but later he and Kazuha fall off a cliff. Kazuha attempts to save Heiji by stabbing him with an arrow so that he would let go of her and save himself, but Heiji persists and ends up saving both Kazuha and himself in the end.<br />
<br />
=== K3 Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 29#K3 Murder Case|293-295]], Anime: [[The 3 "K"s of Osaka Case|238-239]]) ===<br />
At the Mouri Detective Agency, Conan is on the phone talking to Heiji about the much publicised K3 Restaurant's opening party. Heiji's parents got invited but they both got colds and are unable to attend. Heiji decides to invite Conan, Ran, and Kogoro to come to the party. Three famous athletes from America are going to be there also. Once Heiji tells Conan who the three athletes are, Conan accepts the invitation. Suddenly, the news reporter named Ed McCay, who was invited to the K3 Restaurant, asks whether Japan isn't the home of many scandals, and mentions that K stands for "kitanai" meaning filth. Heiji wonders who he is and Kogoro mentions that McCay is famous in America.

McCay later gets murdered, but Heiji and Conan solve the case.<br />

Heiji invites Conan to his kendo tournament but a drunk man named Atsushi Tarumi is found dead in the storage room. Heiji comes to investigate only to find that the body had somehow been moved to the shower room without anyone noticing. While Heiji was investigating, Kazuha suddenly appears asking Heiji to come back and take part in tournament and told him that Shinichi (actually Conan, with whom Heiji was talking using the name "Kudo") would solve this case before him, which made Heiji jealous and he told Kazuha to not to tell anything about this case to Kudo. After a thorough investigation, Heiji reveals the culprit before Shinichi. However, in the end Heiji's high school lost the tournament because of Heiji's absence, but he seemed to be happy because he won his duel against Kudo.

While at Agasa's house, Conan recalls his last meeting with the Black Organization. Conan deduces that another Black Organization member must have been at the hotel party. This is when he finally singles out Chris Vineyard as his suspect. Heiji came to Tokyo to help Conan out with the case. Heiji suspects Jodie-sensei of being a possible Black Organization member, and although Conan seems reluctant to support this idea, they pay Jodie-sensei a visit at her apartment. They find out here that her full name is "Jodie Saintemillion". After Jodie agrees to go out for a while with Heiji and Conan, the man living next door to Jodie falls dead outside from over 30 stories coincidentally as the three step outside. After the police arrive, it seems likely that the man committed suicide. However, Conan and Heiji have their doubts. Heiji immediately destroys the theory of suicide by showing that the man who fell from his apartment attempted to grab onto a curtain to save his life. Conan and Heiji reveal the truth by showing how the room was switched around so that when the man was drunken he would expect to be stepping out onto the balcony, but instead would wind up falling. After they solve the case, Heiji asks Jodie who she is. In reply, Jodie asks Heiji the same question. When Conan and Heiji leave, they concur that Jodie is suspicious but innocuous. The ending scene shows that she's already on to them in that Jodie's already knows Heiji's name and has pictures of Kudo during the time he regressed back to his former self in the Desperate Revival arc.<br />

<br />
Heiji, Kazuha and a man named Kasukawa are held hostage in an attic of someone's home. Meanwhile, Conan, Ran, and Kogoro are tired of waiting for the two and begin searching for them based on clues from the last phone call. They investigate Detective Kasukawa's home and discover evidence that Heiji had been there. Conan finds a memo which discloses Kenbashi City, Ito Residence. They investigate those with the surname Ito but are unable to find information about Heiji. Meanwhile, it is revealed Heiji is held hostage by Misari Ito, an attorney who is the head of a tax evasion group. Ito demands Heiji to solve a code made by Kasukawa which contains a seven-digit-code to a safe box containing evidence of her scandal. While held at gunpoint, Heiji sends a modified version of the code to Kogoro and asks him to solve it. Conan manages to solve the code, realizing that K, Q, and J stand for King, Queen, and Jack and replaces them with numbers accordingly. When Heiji receives the code back from Kogoro, he tells Misari he will tell her the seven digits and they head to the bank. Conan realizes the last three digits are actually letters and realizes what Heiji is trying to tell him and replies a modified code. Heiji tells Misari Ito he will tell her the seven digits and they head to the bank. Heiji reveals that the numbers, if placed in a 3 by 3 diagram, will create a diagram of a dice with the 1's representing the dots on a dice. Heiji reveals that the code he sent Kogoro had the letters LIB meaning Libra which is referring to the scales Libra and the attorney badge Ito has; He explains that the code "Kogoro" replied with means to "Lure One of them Out". At Ito's home, Conan knocks out the two kidnappers and frees Kazuha. The police arrive later and apprehends the criminals.<br />

At every crime scene, a horse would be found engulfed in flames, as the house where the crime occurred, gets burnt down. Humorously, all the cases that appeared to be linked to a serial killer, were not connected at all. It was all done to lessen the suspicion on the culprit's true intention of murder. During their conversation, Heiji invited Kogoro and Conan to assist him in a new case that he wished to solve. They keep a close watch on the house whose occupant had asked for their assistance, even after the one who requested them declined the service. They kept surveillance for a long time until Ran called and asked them to hurry back home for dinner. Just as they left, the house went up in flames, along with a red horse. The woman who had asked them for help was burnt to death. The case triggered the enthusiasm in the two young detectives (Conan and Heiji), and they uncovered the murderer through a joint investigation.<br />

A famous actor was murdered, but was told to have committed suicide.

Heiji, along with Ran, Kogoro and Kazuha, finds Shinichi with his memory completely erased, during a village trip. They are also surprised to find that almost everyone in the village seems to hate Shinichi, due to a supposedly 'stupid' and 'flawed' solution he gave about the deaths of the local leader and his wife, one year ago. A news reporter, who was present to cover the original case, accuses Shinichi of faking the memory loss and states that she knows the 'truth' about him. The next morning, the reporter is found stabbed, with no one but Shinichi in the house, and a knife with him, turning him into the one and only suspect. <br />
<br />
Heiji takes it upon himself to both prove Shinichi's innocence and hide him from the police, helped by Ran, Kogoro and Kazuha. He skilfully proves that the culprit had undergone cosmetic surgery, to impersonate Shinichi and commit a crime to destroy his reputation. The real Shinichi, too, turns up (after mistakenly ingesting [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]]'s APTX 4869 antidote prototype) to justify his deductions about the year-old double deaths.<br />
<br />
After the antidote's effects start wearing off, Heiji tries to prevent Shinichi from turning into Conan in front of Ran, by taking him to the toilet and asking him to hide in his (Heiji's) travel bag, so that he can make up some story about the disappearance and get him home.<br />

Heiji and Shinichi, after narrowing down the suspects, together apprehend the criminal with such finesse that even Detective [[Miwako Sato]] (who happened to be present there along with her colleague, [[Wataru Takagi]]) is left surprised. Heiji also lends Shinichi his cap to prevent him from being recognized easily, due to Shinichi's fears about the [[Black Organization]].<br />

== Non-canon plot overview ==<br />
<br />
== Relationships analysis ==<br />
=== Kazuha Toyama ===<br />
{{main|Heiji Hattori and Kazuha Toyama}}<br />
Like Shinichi's relationship with Ran, Heiji's relationship with [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] is a very close one: they know each other since their childhoods, and have stayed close through the years. Their relationship is identified as a romantic one by other characters and fans alike, even though they claim that they don't have that sort of relationship or feelings for each other. Heiji is clueless when it comes to love and in the majority of the manga and anime has not yet realized he has actual feelings for Kazuha, until recently. On the class trip where Ran and Shinichi almost share a kiss, Heiji is explicitly jealous, all the while thinking of Kazuha, even saying “[he’s] running out of places to confess.” While it’s unknown when he plans on confessing, it is clear that Heiji loves Kazuha. It has been shown that he becomes visibly jealous when he sees Kazuha with other guys, becoming distracted throughout the whole case. At one point, after a certain case, while looking at Kazuha, his thoughts read: 'Fool. You're too naive. I promise you, as long as you're with me, I'll never let anyone hurt you.'. Kazuha knows she has feelings for Heiji, as she shows this by being protective and chasing off other women that might have a interest in him In on of the mangas Kazuha attempts to confess her feelings after finding out that Shinichi had done so with Ran, but is unlucky because by telling him, Heiji ran off to tease Conan(Shinichi) for it. She one time even attempted to sacrifice herself to save Heiji during a case in which accidentally both fell off a cliff. When the branch that Heiji was holding and both of them were hanging on to was breaking, she stabbed his hand with an arrow of love to prevent him from falling and force him to let her fall; however, he still held on despite the wound. Also, they have a similar situation to Ran and Shinichi, being childhood friends that have romantic feelings for each other and have similar backgrounds. Heiji is a teenage detective and she is a police detective's daughter, like Ran is a detective's daughter and Shinichi is a teenage detective. They are even called the 'Ran and Shinichi of Osaka' by fans of the series, since they're so similar. Although they are constantly fighting, they both are very close friends. It is also shown in the seventh movie, ''[[Crossroad in the Ancient Capital]]'', that Kazuha is Heiji's first love, though he didn't know it was her at the time. In the most recent case, Heiji confessed to Kazuha when she was taken away by some suspicious men, saying "What are you doing to my Kazuha?!". When Kazuha questioned him about it, he claimed that she was wrong and there was no evidence that proves his confession (although Shinichi recorded it). Nonetheless, it is shown in the file 912 that he has actually realized his feelings for her, as Ran questions him about the confession. He denies it to her, but thinks that he needed a more important place to confess, as Kudo confessed in front of the Big Ben.<br />
<br />
=== Shinichi Kudo/Conan Edogawa ===<br />
[[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]<br />
His sharp intellect helped Heiji quickly figure out Conan's real identity as Shinichi. Heiji acts rather brotherly towards [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]], even going so far as to pretend to be him on various occasions so that no one figures out that Shinichi and Conan are the same person. Of course, this might also be to make up for all the times Heiji calls him Kudo, which has nearly given Shinichi away multiple times. Heiji is concerned for Shinichi when he gets into trouble and life-or-death situations. They are as close as real brothers, both being detectives who have romantic feelings for their childhood friends. When they're caught solving a case together, it's not unusual for their minds to move in sync; because of this and several other factors, they maintain a sort of friendly rivalry with each other. However, they are both all business when a case gets serious. Heiji has, on several occasions, declared himself to be Shinichi's best friend.<ref>English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective</ref> He also becomes extremely determined to one-up Shinichi's London confession to Ran by creating an even better setting to one day confess his love to his childhood friend, Kazuha.<br />
<br />
Even with his teasing, Heiji genuinely wants Shinichi (Conan) and Ran to become a couple. He once suggested that Shinichi tell Ran the truth about the Black Organization to ease both of their suffering.<br />
<br />
=== Ran Mouri ===<br />
Heiji and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] are very good friends, bonding after Heiji's many trips to Tokyo because he "misses Conan". Ran respects Heiji as a very skilled detective who reminds her of Shinichi, but whenever Heiji and Kazuha run into an argument, Ran seems to take Kazuha's side.<br />
<br />
Since Heiji knows that Ran is Shinichi's Girlfriend, he tends to tease Shinichi about her quite often and will give him advice on his romantic relationship with her. He is also sometimes protective of her for the sake of Shinichi, such as when [[Soshi Okita]] flirted with Ran and he told him to back off since she is "his friend's girl" referring to Shinichi.<ref>Episode 916</ref> Since it's practically identical with his relationship with Kazuha (Even though they aren't on the same level as Shinichi & Ran's romantic relationship).<br />
<br />
Heiji almost views Ran as a sister, as he will tease her from time to time and he'll help explain things to her during cases along with Kazuha.<br />
<br />
=== Heizo Hattori ===<br />
Heiji wants to become a detective, and his [[Heizo Hattori|father]] is very supportive of this, helping him solve tough cases. However, his father prefers a "tough love" approach, though mostly for the sole purpose of using Heiji to lure out a suspect.<ref>Episode 263</ref><br />
<br />
=== Shizuka Hattori ===<br />
[[Shizuka Hattori|Shizuka]] is Heiji's mother and he sometimes calls her an "old lady".<br />
<br />
=== Kogoro Mouri ===<br />
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] respects him a little as a detective, but due to Heiji being the better detective, he seems to get annoyed whenever Heiji is with him while solving cases.<br />
<br />
=== Goro Otaki ===<br />
[[Goro Otaki|Otaki]] and Heiji are very good friends.<br />
<br />
=== Juzo Megure ===<br />
Usually [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] gets a little annoyed whenever Heiji runs into a case he is handling. He often tells Kogoro to not to lose to an outsider like Heiji. Despite this, Megure respects Heiji as a very skilled detective, and he has even declared Heiji as a better detective than Shinichi.<br />
<br />
=== Momiji Ooka ===<br />
[[Momiji Ooka|Momiji]] is close to her "future husband" Heiji. According to the 21st movie (which has yet to be contradicted by the manga / anime), they met as children and played karuta together. Heiji made a "pinky promise" with her about playing more later, which Momiji mistook as a marriage proposal. Unbeknownst to Heiji, Momiji held on the promise for several years, firmly believing that they are destined to be together.<br />
However, despite Momiji's feelings for Heiji, he does not reciprocate them most likely because of his feelings for Kazuha.<br />

* In OVA 9, Heiji and Kazuha are asked, "When are you two getting married?" However, this can be dismissed as it was all part of Conan's dream.<br />
* Heiji's favorite author is Ellery Queen.<br />
* In File 1020 (part 3 of the Fairy's Lips Heist), it's mentioned that Heiji can't stand air conditioners, and can't sleep without a fan on.<br />
* It has become the series' trope that Heiji (and sometimes Kazuha) often appear in long cases (more than three chapters) setting in isolated and remote locations. Their entries are often mentioned at the end of the preceding case as well.<br />
*He usually wears his cap with its visor pointed backward, but during a case, he turns the visor forward. At the end of whatever case he's on, Heiji turn the visor backwards again.<br />

'''{{nihongo|Heiji Hattori|服部 平次|Hattori Heiji}}''', also known as '''Harley Hartwell''' in the Funimation dub, is an Osakan high school detective in the manga and anime series ''[[Detective Conan]]''. He is a childhood friend and the romantic interest of [[Kazuha Toyama]]. Originally a detective rival to [[Shinichi Kudo]], Heiji has since [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|found out]] [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s true identity and the two often team up to work on cases. He was the first person to ''deduce'' Conan's true identity.<br />
<br />
== Background ==<br />
[[File:Cuffed.png|thumb|left|200px|Heiji and Kazuha cuffed together as children.]]<br />
Heiji is a high school detective, and the son of [[Heizo Hattori]], chief of the Osaka Police Department, and his wife [[Shizuka Hattori]]. Heiji wants to be a detective like his father since spending his childhood looking for lost cats in his neighborhood, and he is also very skilled in kendo and has become a favored tournament contender for his school.<br />
<br />
At one time during their childhood, Heiji had had the unfortunate idea of locking himself and his friend [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] together with a set of old handcuffs which had no key to unlock it; as a result they involuntarily had to spend time together even on some rather intimate occasions (i.e., bathroom visits) before the cuffs could be removed. As a reminder of this 'closeness' and for good luck, Kazuha fashioned two identical lucky charms, each incorporating a chain link from the cuffs, which she and Heiji have been wearing ever since.<ref name=StabbedWallet>Manga Volume 19: Files 185 (Stabbed Wallet Case)</ref><br />
<br />
In the news, Heiji has been publicly declared the "Great Detective of the West", while [[Shinichi Kudo]] is the "Great Detective of the East". As a result, Heiji showed up unannounced at the Mouri Detective Agency looking for Kudo, seeking to challenge his rival to a showdown of wits. (In fact, they had such a contest before, three years previously, [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|during a skiing trip in the Yamagata prefecture]], although they never learned about each other's identities at that time.<ref>Manga Chapters 518-522: Yuki-Onna Murder Case</ref>) Heiji was soundly defeated in the following case after [[Conan Edogawa]] temporarily turned back into Shinichi, but he gained a lot of respect for Shinichi in the process.<ref>Manga Chapters 092-096: The Great Detective Of The West</ref><br />
<br />
During their second encounter, Conan knocked Heiji out to use him as the mouthpiece for the voice-changing bow-tie. But during his final presentation of the facts, Heiji awoke prematurely and discovered Conan's secret, and in the end managed to blackmail Conan into revealing all.<ref>Manga Chapters 121: The Holmes Freak Case: The Revelation</ref> Ever since that revelation, Heiji has been helping Conan in hiding his secret identity, though he constantly slips up by calling him "Kudo" in front of [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and Kazuha. <br />
<br />
Heiji and Conan most often congenially team up to solve assorted cases. Heiji has also helped Conan investigate the [[Black Organization]] on several occasions, such as when the two investigated [[Jodie Starling]],<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=34|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 2-7|language=English}}</ref> or when Heiji investigated [[Eisuke Hondou]] on his own and then told Conan his findings<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=56|chapter=Files 7|language=Japanese}}</ref>, but he never had a real direct confrontation with the primary antagonist. He has also helped cover for Conan during several of the brief instances where Conan regained his true adolescent age, and has even disguised himself as Shinichi on several occasions in order to protect his identity, even though he is not very good at it (mostly owing to his distinctive Kansai dialect). When not working on a case, he regularly attempts to invite Conan to take in the sights and culinary delights of Osaka, which he considers more wholesome than Tokyo's.<br />
{{clearleft}}<br />
<br />
== Personality ==<br />
Even while solving a case, Heiji tends to be lighthearted and good-humored, preferring to work through it with a grin on his face. He is a big fan of baseball, and is most of the time shown wearing an Osaka cap, to support the local Osaka baseball team. He usually wears his cap with its visor pointed backward, but if he feels challenged, he turns the visor forward.<br />
<br />
Heiji is known for his pride as an Osaka citizen and for his thick Osakan accent, which has been pointed out and sometimes made fun numerous times. However, Heiji holds his head high and is always one to brag about the greatness of Osaka, especially when Conan comes to visit. <br />
<br />
Despite him knowing the value and necessity of remaining calm in the face of a crime, Heiji tends to be impulsive at times, which tends to cloud his judgment a little. This was discussed directly in the "Detective Koushien" case, when [[Saguru Hakuba]] accused Heiji of being a poor detective for disrupting a crime scene in his rush to see if the victim could still be saved. Heiji, however, solved the case in the end, and reminded Saguru that the detective's first job is to prevent death if he can. Heiji is also known to be extremely protective of those he values as close friends, and tries hard to keep them out of harm. There are several instances where Hattori tells Kazuha to wait for him or leaves her behind in order to keep her from being involved in cases, simply because he's afraid of her getting hurt.<ref>Manga Volume 59, File 6, pg 6: Armored Warrior</ref><ref>Manga Volume 59, File 7, pg 11: Art of War</ref><ref name=653p3>Manga Volume 63, File 1, page 3: My Deduction</ref><br />
<br />
Furthermore, he's pretty much always watching Shinichi's back, and does whatever he can to not only keep Shinichi safe, but to keep his identity under cover. However, on one occasion Heiji advised Conan to tell the truth, when Ran had convinced herself that Conan was Shinichi and thus willingly gave him blood after being shot. <br />
<br />
Heiji occasionally enjoys teasing Shinichi's kid form. He has fun jokingly (sometimes mistakenly) calling Conan "Kudo" in front of Ran at his friend's expense. He often treats Conan/ Shinichi as a younger brother and their close relationship even evokes Kazuha's jealousy from time to time. In return Conan truly trusts and respects Heiji.<br />
<br />
Although he is very competitive when it comes to detective cases, when a case gets hot, he and Shinichi work effectively together. During Shinichi's first return to his high school during the play performance, Heiji had let him take the lead role in the investigations, saying that it was because they were in Tokyo, Shinichi's turf.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=26|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 1-7|language=English}}</ref> <br />
<br />
Although he frequently mocks Kazuha for her superstitions and enthusiasm for good-luck charms, Heiji has several times revealed that he puts more trust in them than he would admit. He once dreamed of Shinichi being murdered, and out subsequently insisted that Conan wear his omamori, the good luck charm Kazuha gave him. The omamori ended up saving Shinichi's life by deflecting a knife blow, but Heiji, without his usual protection, was shot in the stomach.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=19|chapter=Files 5-8|language=Japanese}}</ref> In another case, Ran hung a teruterubozu, a charm that's supposed to ensure good weather, in the window so that Conan would have good weather for his field trip the next day. Heiji, however, got up in the middle of the night to take down the teruterubozu so that Conan's field trip would be rained out and he could accompany Heiji on an investigation of the The Red Horse Among The Flames.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=39|language=Japanese}}</ref><br />
<br />
During the "Bond of Fire" case, Heiji questions Conan if they were right in stopping the culprit from committing suicide, leading to the latter responding that if a detective knows a criminal is about to commit suicide and does nothing to stop it, then the detective is no better than a murderer. Heiji takes to this heart, as evidenced by him stopping the serial murderer in the "Stabbed Wallet" case from committing suicide.<br />
<br />
His relationship with Shinichi/Conan from his end. In Heiji's first appearance, he traveled all the way to Tokyo to challenge Shinichi Kudo to a deduction battle so he could win and show he was the superior detective of the two. After Shinichi solves the case (which included correcting Heiji's wrong assumptions), the Tokyoite detective then gives a short speech to the Osakan that there's no such thing as the superior or inferior detective, only the truth; Heiji is left both speechless and amazed. Throughout his subsequent appearances,(which involved deducing "Conan's" real identity), Heiji may have kept his competitiveness towards his fellow detective, but he now considers Shinichi/Conan to be his partner and best friend, willing to do anything to ensure his happiness and safety.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Appearance ==<br />
[[File:vlcsnap-2013-09-20-15h27m58s194.png|thumb|right|200px|Heiji talks about his skin color in movie 7.]]<br />
Heiji is a handsome man with dark brown, spiky hair and dark brown skin which he claims is inherited from his grandfather.<ref>Chapter 278</ref> His eyes are blue in the manga (like every character). Initially, his eyes appeared dark green, but are now blue<ref>Episode 710</ref>. He speaks with a strong Kansai Ben accent, which is typical of the Osaka region. Since Heiji is so strongly accustomed to this accent, his lingual habit can be a disadvantage at times, especially when he has to impersonate someone who uses standard Japanese.<ref>[[Volume 26# School Play Case|Manga Chapter 256: ''Concealed Truth'']]</ref><ref>OVA 06: ''[[Follow the Vanished Diamond! Conan & Heiji vs. Kid!]]''</ref> He has a scar behind the left ear from being hit during an Oyodo competition as said in episode 263.<br />
<br />
He has also been shown to be popular with girls due to his good looks, position as kendo captain at his high school, and his fame as a high school detective. For example, in episode 263 when several girls tried to flirt with him but he had switched his gear with another team member to make a last minute call to Conan to visit his match. This was shown in Magic File 4: The Osaka Okonomiyaki Killer where several girls came to ask for an autograph and in [[OVA 9]], he was referred to as a lady killer.<br />
{{clear}}<br />
<br />
== Skills ==<br />
=== Keen Intellect ===<br />
Heiji's detective skills are same as Shinichi's. Because of his skills, Heiji has acquired his nick name "The Great Detective Of The West". Like Shinichi, he has a keen eye for details, and can spot any unusual aspects in a case that most people tend to ignore or not take into account and has extraordinarily broad and deep knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to recall every detail of an investigation, and may have a photographic memory to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Heiji's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony. However, unlike Shinichi, Heiji seem to be more competitive and hot-blooded while solving a case, which sometimes leads him into making a wrong deduction [[Diplomat Murder Case|i.e. the case in his first appearance.]] Like the other "geniuses" detectives, Heiji has shown himself to have an eidetic memory, capable of remembering complex letter and number sequences at only a glance, such as when he was able to solve a code in his head during the "Heiji and Kazuha in Grave Danger" arc, and even reproduce another message using the same code to text to Conan. When Heiji and Shinichi work together, they're each other's equal and will often arrive at the same conclusions. But when they compete with each other or their deductions differ, Shinichi usually wins. Recent cases have begun to subvert this, but usually only with subjects Heiji specializes in - e.g. kendo. He is also good if it comes to someone who has his own dialect, Kansai dialect.<br />
<br />
=== Athletic ability ===<br />
Heiji is the fifth position, or taisho, and captain of his high school Kendo team. Heiji may disable criminals using an improvised bokken similar to how Conan uses his soccer skills. Heiji is also very nimble, able to jump higher than a bookshelf, seamlessly scale the side of the staircase, and balance perfectly on a katana. This is shown in episode 263 of the anime, when Kotegawa tries to kill him.<br />
<br />
=== Others ===<br />
Heiji is also a capable motorcycle rider. He also speaks fluent English as shown ep 278. During episode 291, Heiji has shown to have the ability to deduce a woman's swimsuit without actually looking at it. In episode 516, he is also shown to have a "Kudou Radar" where he correctly guessed Conan's involvement in the case without actually seeing Conan.<br />

== Plot overview ==<br />
=== Great Detective of the West (Manga: [[Volume 10#Great Detective of the_West|92-96]], Anime: [[Diplomat Murder Case|48-49]]) ===<br />
One day, Conan (using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|Voice-Changer Tie]] to imitate [[Shinichi Kudo|his old voice]]) calls [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] to tell her once again that he is all right and that he is still stuck with the 'special case' when Ran hangs up on him as someone has just entered the detective agency. Coming home, Conan finds to his surprise that the 'customer' is a youth who keeps demanding to see Shinichi Kudo. He had read of Kogoro solving cases and jumps to the conclusion that he is getting help from Shinichi. When Ran mentions that Shinichi has just called, without asking about Ran's state, the youth deduces that Shinichi must actually be nearby, watching Ran from afar. He then introduces himself as high school detective Heiji Hattori and presents a gift, a bottle of [[baijiu]], of which he gives Conan a swig. Just then, Kimie Tsujimura, the wife of a known diplomat, enters [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]]'s office to ask him to investigate the girlfriend of her son. In order to be inconspicuous, Kogoro takes Ran and Conan along, and Heiji, hoping to flush out Shinichi, tags along as well. What is originally meant to be a simple investigation job turns out to be a murder case, as they find Kimie's husband slain at his desk.<br />
<br />
=== Holmes Freak Case (Manga: [[Volume 12#Holmes Freak Case|117-121]], Anime: [[Holmes Freak Murder Case|57-58]]) ===<br />
After this first case, it only takes one more run-in with Conan to get Heiji thinking about the similarities between Conan and Shinichi. It is on the "[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]" that Heiji, despite professing a preference for [[Wikipedia: Ellery Queen|Ellery Queen]], exercises the Holmesian axiom: "When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." In addition, after Conan had [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|knocked him out]] to use him as his mouthpiece to present his evidence, Heiji receives a clout on the head from [[Kogoro Mouri]], which wakes him up again, and from the corner of his eye he spies Conan standing behind him and using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie]] to mimic his voice; he thus discovers Conan's secret, which forces Conan to explain his situation.<br />
<br />
=== Bond of Fire Case (Manga: [[Volume 15#Bond of Fire Case|150-153]], Anime: [[Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case|77-78]]) ===<br />
On their third case together, Conan was initially irritated to see Heiji, but they quickly formed a strong team. Together they cornered the murderer and even took steps to preventing the suicide she had planned. When she realizes that she won't be able to kill herself she weeps piteously, causing Heiji to whisper to Conan, "perhaps we should have let her die." Conan replies that "a detective who corners a murderer with logic and then lets them commit suicide is no better than a murderer."<br />
<br />
=== Mystery Writer Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Mystery Writer Case|183]], Anime: [[The Mystery Writer Disappearance Case|117]]) ===<br />
Heiji calls Conan having deciphered the text in the first new chapter, and with this information Conan manages to solve the rest of the hidden riddles.<br />
<br />
=== Stabbed Wallet Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Stabbed Wallet Case|185-188]], Anime: [[The Naniwa Serial Murder Case|118]]) ===<br />
Heiji invites Conan (and [[Kogoro Mouri]] and [[Ran Mouri]], because otherwise it'd look suspicious) to Osaka. It is revealed by [[Kazuha Toyama]] (in her first appearance) that Heiji has been talking about 'Kudo' so often that Kazuha thought 'Kudo' was his new Tokyo girlfriend. Heiji suggests that the reason he invited Conan to Osaka is because he has been worried about Conan's safety; he has had dreams of Conan being murdered. On a case together in Osaka, Heiji gives Conan his omamori, which ends up saving his life by deflecting a knife thrust. However, without it Heiji is injured while trying to prevent the murderer from committing suicide. In the ambulance, he reveals to Conan that he has taken to heart Conan's admonishment.<br />
<br />
=== Wedding Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 21#Wedding Murder Case|211-214]], Anime: [[The Night Before the Wedding Locked Room Case|141-142]]) ===<br />
Heiji and Kazuha visit Tokyo accompanied by Kogoro, Ran, and Conan. They run into Heiji's father's friend and are invited to their mansion. There a murder occurs and his father's friend is found dead in a locked room. It seems he was dragged to another room after being stabbed in the heart. Continuing the investigation, Heiji proclaims the butler was the murderer and he is taken away, screaming his innocence. Late that night, an unknown man takes the murder weapon and tries to place it in a bag, but is caught by Heiji and Conan who reveal that they placed the blame on the butler to lure out the true culprit. The culprit is revealed to be Kikuhito Morizono. He reveals that he murdered the man because he tried to cancel the wedding and take his love away from him.<br />
<br />
=== Cruise Ship Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 23#Cruise Ship Murder Case|225-230]], Anime: [[The Twenty Year Old Murderous Intent: The Symphony Serial Murder Case|174]]) ===<br />
In this episode, Heiji meets up once again with Conan and the gang on an overnight cruise in Tokyo. Unfortunately, instead of being able to spend a relaxing day on board, a serial murder case is created, leaving Heiji and Conan to work together to solve it. After they gather much of the evidence of the murder cases, Heiji and Conan share their deductions with each other only to find that, once again, their deductions are different. Heiji tries to beat Conan to the truth and goes off on his own to investigate. When he happens to come across the final piece of evidence that disproves both his and Conan's deductions, he is attacked and thrown overboard into the ocean. Later, Conan realizes that he's missing and is extremely concerned.<br />
<br />
=== Spider Mansion Case (Manga: [[Volume 25#Spider Mansion Case|246-250]], Anime: [[Tottori Spider Mansion Demon|166-168]]) ===<br />
Kogoro and Heiji are hired to solve a murder case in a mansion supposedly haunted by a spider demon. Heiji and Kazuha, on their way to the mansion, find one of the residents who is also lost: an American named Robert Taylor who is a photographer. The three are picked up by Kogoro and co. in a truck. Apparently, the spider god's victims are always found hanged. During their stay, they find a hanged man surrounded by web-like strings. The case continues, and Conan and Heiji investigate further in the case. Conan and Heiji cooperate to reveal the murderer's identity and his trick.<br />
<br />
=== The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume 26|254-258]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|189-192]])===<br />
[[File:190 heiji as shinichi.JPG|thumb|right|200px| Heiji attempting to disguise himself as Shinichi to alleviate Ran's suspicions.]]<br />
Ran is cast in a school play. While discussing the play with her friends backstage, Conan shows up wearing a face mask due to a cold. During a romantic scene, a man in the audience falls dead, seemingly by potassium cyanide, as revealed by a young man in the audience who appears to be Shinichi Kudo. This is quickly debunked, as Kazuha recognizes Heiji in disguise, and the real Shinichi has shown up anyway. Heiji originally planned on disguising as Shinichi in order to clear Ran's suspicions that Conan and Shinichi were one and the same, and was unaware that Shinichi would take the antidote with Haibara present in disguise as Conan.<br />
<br />
=== Old Photograph Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 28#Old Photograph Murder Case|278]], Anime: [[The Client Full of Lies|221]]) ===<br />
A woman named Shizuka Ikenami asks Kogoro to help find a man named Shiro Shibata so she could retrieve an old photograph; Conan realizes that the Ikenami is lying to Kogoro when she introduces herself for unknown reasons. After Conan solved the case, Heiji and Kazuha arrive and reveal that Shizuka Ikenami is actually Heiji's mother.

After Jodie agrees to go out for a while with Heiji and Conan, the man living next door to Jodie falls dead outside from over 30 stories coincidentally as the three step outside. After the police arrive, it seems likely that the man committed suicide. However, Conan and Heiji have their doubts. Heiji immediately destroys the theory of suicide by showing that the man who fell from his apartment attempted to grab onto a curtain to save his life. Conan and Heiji reveal the truth by showing how the room was switched around so that when the man was drunken he would expect to be stepping out onto the balcony, but instead would wind up falling. After they solve the case, Heiji asks Jodie who she is. In reply, Jodie asks Heiji the same question. When Conan and Heiji leave, they concur that Jodie is suspicious but innocuous.

They investigate those with the surname Ito but are unable to find information about Heiji. Meanwhile, it is revealed Heiji is held hostage by Misari Ito, an attorney who is the head of a tax evasion group. Ito demands Heiji to solve a code made by Kasukawa which contains a seven-digit-code to a safe box containing evidence of her scandal. While held at gunpoint, Heiji sends a modified version of the code to Kogoro and asks him to solve it. Conan manages to solve the code, realizing that K, Q, and J stand for King, Queen, and Jack and replaces them with numbers accordingly. When Heiji receives the code back from Kogoro, he tells Misari he will tell her the seven digits and they head to the bank. Conan realizes the last three digits are actually letters and realizes what Heiji is trying to tell him and replies a modified code. Heiji tells Misari Ito he will tell her the seven digits and they head to the bank. Heiji reveals that the numbers, if placed in a 3 by 3 diagram, will create a diagram of a dice with the 1's representing the dots on a dice. Heiji reveals that the code he sent Kogoro had the letters LIB meaning Libra which is referring to the scales Libra and the attorney badge Ito has; He explains that the code "Kogoro" replied with means to "Lure One of them Out". At Ito's home, Conan knocks out the two kidnappers and frees Kazuha. The police arrive later and apprehends the criminals.<br />

At every crime scene, a horse would be found engulfed in flames, as the house where the crime occurred, gets burnt down. Humorously, all the cases that appeared to be linked to a serial killer, were not connected at all. It was all done to lessen the suspicion on the culprit's true intention of murder. During their conversation, Heiji invited Kogoro and Conan to assist him in a new case that he wished to solve. They keep a close watch on the house whose occupant had asked for their assistance, even after the one who requested them declined the service. They kept surveillance for a long time until Ran called and asked them to hurry back home for dinner. Just as they left, the house went up in flames, along with a red horse. The woman who had asked them for help was burnt to death. The case triggered the enthusiasm in the two young detectives (Conan and Heiji), and they uncovered the murderer through a joint investigation.<br />

Heiji, along with Ran, Kogoro and Kazuha, finds Shinichi with his memory completely erased, during a village trip. They are also surprised to find that almost everyone in the village seems to hate Shinichi, due to a supposedly 'stupid' and 'flawed' solution he gave about the deaths of the local leader and his wife, one year ago. A news reporter, who was present to cover the original case, accuses Shinichi of faking the memory loss and states that she knows the 'truth' about him. The next morning, the reporter is found stabbed, with no one but Shinichi in the house, and a knife with him, turning him into the one and only suspect. <br />
<br />
Heiji takes it upon himself to both prove Shinichi's innocence and hide him from the police, helped by Ran, Kogoro and Kazuha. He skilfully proves that the culprit had undergone cosmetic surgery, to impersonate Shinichi and commit a crime to destroy his reputation. The real Shinichi, too, turns up (after mistakenly ingesting [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]]'s APTX 4869 antidote prototype) to justify his deductions about the year-old double deaths.<br />
<br />
After the antidote's effects start wearing off, Heiji tries to prevent Shinichi from turning into Conan in front of Ran, by taking him to the toilet and asking him to hide in his (Heiji's) travel bag, so that he can make up some story about the disappearance and get him home.<br />

Heiji and Shinichi, after narrowing down the suspects, together apprehend the criminal with such finesse that even Detective [[Miwako Sato]] (who happened to be present there along with her colleague, [[Wataru Takagi]]) is left surprised. Heiji also lends Shinichi his cap to prevent him from being recognized easily, due to Shinichi's fears about the [[Black Organization]].<br />

<br />
== Non-canon plot overview ==<br />
<br />
== Relationships analysis ==<br />
=== Kazuha Toyama ===<br />
{{main|Heiji Hattori and Kazuha Toyama}}<br />
Like Shinichi's relationship with Ran, Heiji's relationship with [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] is a very close one: they know each other since their childhoods, and have stayed close through the years. Their relationship is identified as a romantic one by other characters and fans alike, even though they claim that they don't have that sort of relationship or feelings for each other. Heiji is clueless when it comes to love and in the majority of the manga and anime has not yet realized he has actual feelings for Kazuha, until recently. On the class trip where Ran and Shinichi almost share a kiss, Heiji is explicitly jealous, all the while thinking of Kazuha, even saying “[he’s] running out of places to confess.” While it’s unknown when he plans on confessing, it is clear that Heiji loves Kazuha. It has been shown that he becomes visibly jealous when he sees Kazuha with other guys, becoming distracted throughout the whole case. At one point, after a certain case, while looking at Kazuha, his thoughts read: 'Fool. You're too naive. I promise you, as long as you're with me, I'll never let anyone hurt you.'. Kazuha knows she has feelings for Heiji, as she shows this by being protective and chasing off other women that might have a interest in him In on of the mangas Kazuha attempts to confess her feelings after finding out that Shinichi had done so with Ran, but is unlucky because by telling him, Heiji ran off to tease Conan(Shinichi) for it. She one time even attempted to sacrifice herself to save Heiji during a case in which accidentally both fell off a cliff. When the branch that Heiji was holding and both of them were hanging on to was breaking, she stabbed his hand with an arrow of love to prevent him from falling and force him to let her fall; however, he still held on despite the wound. Also, they have a similar situation to Ran and Shinichi, being childhood friends that have romantic feelings for each other and have similar backgrounds. Heiji is a teenage detective and she is a police detective's daughter, like Ran is a detective's daughter and Shinichi is a teenage detective. They are even called the 'Ran and Shinichi of Osaka' by fans of the series, since they're so similar. Although they are constantly fighting, they both are very close friends. It is also shown in the seventh movie, ''[[Crossroad in the Ancient Capital]]'', that Kazuha is Heiji's first love, though he didn't know it was her at the time. In the most recent case, Heiji confessed to Kazuha when she was taken away by some suspicious men, saying "What are you doing to my Kazuha?!". When Kazuha questioned him about it, he claimed that she was wrong and there was no evidence that proves his confession (although Shinichi recorded it). Nonetheless, it is shown in the file 912 that he has actually realized his feelings for her, as Ran questions him about the confession. He denies it to her, but thinks that he needed a more important place to confess, as Kudo confessed in front of the Big Ben.<br />
<br />
=== Shinichi Kudo/Conan Edogawa ===<br />
[[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]<br />
His sharp intellect helped Heiji quickly figure out Conan's real identity as Shinichi. Heiji acts rather brotherly towards [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]], even going so far as to pretend to be him on various occasions so that no one figures out that Shinichi and Conan are the same person. Of course, this might also be to make up for all the times Heiji calls him Kudo, which has nearly given Shinichi away multiple times. Heiji is concerned for Shinichi when he gets into trouble and life-or-death situations. They are as close as real brothers, both being detectives who have romantic feelings for their childhood friends. When they're caught solving a case together, it's not unusual for their minds to move in sync; because of this and several other factors, they maintain a sort of friendly rivalry with each other. However, they are both all business when a case gets serious. Heiji has, on several occasions, declared himself to be Shinichi's best friend.<ref>English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective</ref> He also becomes extremely determined to one-up Shinichi's London confession to Ran by creating an even better setting to one day confess his love to his childhood friend, Kazuha.<br />
<br />
Even with his teasing, Heiji genuinely wants Shinichi (Conan) and Ran to become a couple. He once suggested that Shinichi tell Ran the truth about the Black Organization to ease both of their suffering.<br />
<br />
=== Ran Mouri ===<br />
Heiji and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] are very good friends, bonding after Heiji's many trips to Tokyo because he "misses Conan". Ran respects Heiji as a very skilled detective who reminds her of Shinichi, but whenever Heiji and Kazuha run into an argument, Ran seems to take Kazuha's side.<br />
<br />
Since Heiji knows that Ran is Shinichi's Girlfriend, he tends to tease Shinichi about her quite often and will give him advice on his romantic relationship with her. He is also sometimes protective of her for the sake of Shinichi, such as when [[Soshi Okita]] flirted with Ran and he told him to back off since she is "his friend's girl" referring to Shinichi.<ref>Episode 916</ref> Since it's practically identical with his relationship with Kazuha (Even though they aren't on the same level as Shinichi & Ran's romantic relationship).<br />
<br />
Heiji almost views Ran as a sister, as he will tease her from time to time and he'll help explain things to her during cases along with Kazuha.<br />
<br />
=== Heizo Hattori ===<br />
Heiji wants to become a detective, and his [[Heizo Hattori|father]] is very supportive of this, helping him solve tough cases. However, his father prefers a "tough love" approach, though mostly for the sole purpose of using Heiji to lure out a suspect.<ref>Episode 263</ref><br />
<br />
=== Shizuka Hattori ===<br />
[[Shizuka Hattori|Shizuka]] is Heiji's mother and he sometimes calls her an "old lady".<br />
<br />
=== Kogoro Mouri ===<br />
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] respects him a little as a detective, but due to Heiji being the better detective, he seems to get annoyed whenever Heiji is with him while solving cases.<br />
<br />
=== Goro Otaki ===<br />
[[Goro Otaki|Otaki]] and Heiji are very good friends.<br />
<br />
=== Juzo Megure ===<br />
Usually [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] gets a little annoyed whenever Heiji runs into a case he is handling. He often tells Kogoro to not to lose to an outsider like Heiji. Despite this, Megure respects Heiji as a very skilled detective, and he has even declared Heiji as a better detective than Shinichi.<br />
<br />
=== Momiji Ooka ===<br />
[[Momiji Ooka|Momiji]] is close to her "future husband" Heiji. According to the 21st movie (which has yet to be contradicted by the manga / anime), they met as children and played karuta together. Heiji made a "pinky promise" with her about playing more later, which Momiji mistook as a marriage proposal. Unbeknownst to Heiji, Momiji held on the promise for several years, firmly believing that they are destined to be together.<br />
However, despite Momiji's feelings for Heiji, he does not reciprocate them most likely because of his feelings for Kazuha.<br />

== Trivia ==<br />
* In OVA 9, Heiji and Kazuha are asked, "When are you two getting married?" However, this can be dismissed as it was all part of Conan's dream.<br />
* Heiji's favorite author is Ellery Queen.<br />
* In File 1020 (part 3 of the Fairy's Lips Heist), it's mentioned that Heiji can't stand air conditioners, and can't sleep without a fan on.<br />
* It has become the series' trope that Heiji (and sometimes Kazuha) often appear in long cases (more than three chapters) setting in isolated and remote locations. Their entries are often mentioned at the end of the preceding case as well.<br />
*He usually wears his cap with its visor pointed backward, but during a case, he turns the visor forward. At the end of whatever case he's on, Heiji turn the visor backwards again.<br />

'''{{nihongo|Heiji Hattori|服部 平次|Hattori Heiji}}''', also known as '''Harley Hartwell''' in the Funimation dub, is an Osakan high school detective in the manga and anime series ''[[Detective Conan]]''. He is a childhood friend and the romantic interest of [[Kazuha Toyama]]. Originally a detective rival to [[Shinichi Kudo]], Heiji has since [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|found out]] [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s true identity and the two often team up to work on cases. He was the first person to ''deduce'' Conan's true identity.<br />
<br />
== Background ==<br />
[[File:Cuffed.png|thumb|left|200px|Heiji and Kazuha cuffed together as children.]]<br />
Heiji is a high school detective, and the son of [[Heizo Hattori]], chief of the Osaka Police Department, and his wife [[Shizuka Hattori]]. Heiji wants to be a detective like his father since spending his childhood looking for lost cats in his neighborhood, and he is also very skilled in kendo and has become a favored tournament contender for his school.<br />
<br />
At one time during their childhood, Heiji had had the unfortunate idea of locking himself and his friend [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] together with a set of old handcuffs which had no key to unlock it; as a result they involuntarily had to spend time together even on some rather intimate occasions (i.e., bathroom visits) before the cuffs could be removed. As a reminder of this 'closeness' and for good luck, Kazuha fashioned two identical lucky charms, each incorporating a chain link from the cuffs, which she and Heiji have been wearing ever since.<ref name=StabbedWallet>Manga Volume 19: Files 185 (Stabbed Wallet Case)</ref><br />
<br />
In the news, Heiji has been publicly declared the "Great Detective of the West", while [[Shinichi Kudo]] is the "Great Detective of the East". As a result, Heiji showed up unannounced at the Mouri Detective Agency looking for Kudo, seeking to challenge his rival to a showdown of wits. (In fact, they had such a contest before, three years previously, [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|during a skiing trip in the Yamagata prefecture]], although they never learned about each other's identities at that time.<ref>Manga Chapters 518-522: Yuki-Onna Murder Case</ref>) Heiji was soundly defeated in the following case after [[Conan Edogawa]] temporarily turned back into Shinichi, but he gained a lot of respect for Shinichi in the process.<ref>Manga Chapters 092-096: The Great Detective Of The West</ref><br />
<br />
During their second encounter, Conan knocked Heiji out to use him as the mouthpiece for the voice-changing bow-tie. But during his final presentation of the facts, Heiji awoke prematurely and discovered Conan's secret, and in the end managed to blackmail Conan into revealing all.<ref>Manga Chapters 121: The Holmes Freak Case: The Revelation</ref> Ever since that revelation, Heiji has been helping Conan in hiding his secret identity, though he constantly slips up by calling him "Kudo" in front of [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and Kazuha. <br />
<br />
Heiji and Conan most often congenially team up to solve assorted cases. Heiji has also helped Conan investigate the [[Black Organization]] on several occasions, such as when the two investigated [[Jodie Starling]],<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=34|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 2-7|language=English}}</ref> or when Heiji investigated [[Eisuke Hondou]] on his own and then told Conan his findings<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=56|chapter=Files 7|language=Japanese}}</ref>, but he never had a real direct confrontation with the primary antagonist. He has also helped cover for Conan during several of the brief instances where Conan regained his true adolescent age, and has even disguised himself as Shinichi on several occasions in order to protect his identity, even though he is not very good at it (mostly owing to his distinctive Kansai dialect). When not working on a case, he regularly attempts to invite Conan to take in the sights and culinary delights of Osaka, which he considers more wholesome than Tokyo's.<br />
{{clearleft}}<br />
<br />
== Personality ==<br />
Even while solving a case, Heiji tends to be lighthearted and good-humored, preferring to work through it with a grin on his face. He is a big fan of baseball, and is most of the time shown wearing an Osaka cap, to support the local Osaka baseball team. He usually wears his cap with its visor pointed backward, but if he feels challenged, he turns the visor forward.<br />
<br />
Heiji is known for his pride as an Osaka citizen and for his thick Osakan accent, which has been pointed out and sometimes made fun numerous times. However, Heiji holds his head high and is always one to brag about the greatness of Osaka, especially when Conan comes to visit. <br />
<br />
Despite him knowing the value and necessity of remaining calm in the face of a crime, Heiji tends to be impulsive at times, which tends to cloud his judgment a little. This was discussed directly in the "Detective Koushien" case, when [[Saguru Hakuba]] accused Heiji of being a poor detective for disrupting a crime scene in his rush to see if the victim could still be saved. Heiji, however, solved the case in the end, and reminded Saguru that the detective's first job is to prevent death if he can. Heiji is also known to be extremely protective of those he values as close friends, and tries hard to keep them out of harm. There are several instances where Hattori tells Kazuha to wait for him or leaves her behind in order to keep her from being involved in cases, simply because he's afraid of her getting hurt.<ref>Manga Volume 59, File 6, pg 6: Armored Warrior</ref><ref>Manga Volume 59, File 7, pg 11: Art of War</ref><ref name=653p3>Manga Volume 63, File 1, page 3: My Deduction</ref><br />
<br />
Furthermore, he's pretty much always watching Shinichi's back, and does whatever he can to not only keep Shinichi safe, but to keep his identity under cover. However, on one occasion Heiji advised Conan to tell the truth, when Ran had convinced herself that Conan was Shinichi and thus willingly gave him blood after being shot. <br />
<br />
Heiji occasionally enjoys teasing Shinichi's kid form. He has fun jokingly (sometimes mistakenly) calling Conan "Kudo" in front of Ran at his friend's expense. He often treats Conan/ Shinichi as a younger brother and their close relationship even evokes Kazuha's jealousy from time to time. In return Conan truly trusts and respects Heiji.<br />
<br />
Although he is very competitive when it comes to detective cases, when a case gets hot, he and Shinichi work effectively together. During Shinichi's first return to his high school during the play performance, Heiji had let him take the lead role in the investigations, saying that it was because they were in Tokyo, Shinichi's turf.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=26|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 1-7|language=English}}</ref> <br />
<br />
Although he frequently mocks Kazuha for her superstitions and enthusiasm for good-luck charms, Heiji has several times revealed that he puts more trust in them than he would admit. He once dreamed of Shinichi being murdered, and out subsequently insisted that Conan wear his omamori, the good luck charm Kazuha gave him. The omamori ended up saving Shinichi's life by deflecting a knife blow, but Heiji, without his usual protection, was shot in the stomach.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=19|chapter=Files 5-8|language=Japanese}}</ref> In another case, Ran hung a teruterubozu, a charm that's supposed to ensure good weather, in the window so that Conan would have good weather for his field trip the next day. Heiji, however, got up in the middle of the night to take down the teruterubozu so that Conan's field trip would be rained out and he could accompany Heiji on an investigation of the The Red Horse Among The Flames.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=39|language=Japanese}}</ref><br />
<br />
During the "Bond of Fire" case, Heiji questions Conan if they were right in stopping the culprit from committing suicide, leading to the latter responding that if a detective knows a criminal is about to commit suicide and does nothing to stop it, then the detective is no better than a murderer. Heiji takes to this heart, as evidenced by him stopping the serial murderer in the "Stabbed Wallet" case from committing suicide.<br />
<br />
His relationship with Shinichi/Conan from his end. In Heiji's first appearance, he traveled all the way to Tokyo to challenge Shinichi Kudo to a deduction battle so he could win and show he was the superior detective of the two. After Shinichi solves the case (which included correcting Heiji's wrong assumptions), the Tokyoite detective then gives a short speech to the Osakan that there's no such thing as the superior or inferior detective, only the truth; Heiji is left both speechless and amazed. Throughout his subsequent appearances,(which involved deducing "Conan's" real identity), Heiji may have kept his competitiveness towards his fellow detective, but he now considers Shinichi/Conan to be his partner and best friend, willing to do anything to ensure his happiness and safety.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Appearance ==<br />
[[File:vlcsnap-2013-09-20-15h27m58s194.png|thumb|right|200px|Heiji talks about his skin color in movie 7.]]<br />
Heiji is a handsome man with dark brown, spiky hair and dark brown skin which he claims is inherited from his grandfather.<ref>Chapter 278</ref> His eyes are blue in the manga (like every character). Initially, his eyes appeared dark green, but are now blue<ref>Episode 710</ref>. He speaks with a strong Kansai Ben accent, which is typical of the Osaka region. Since Heiji is so strongly accustomed to this accent, his lingual habit can be a disadvantage at times, especially when he has to impersonate someone who uses standard Japanese.<ref>[[Volume 26# School Play Case|Manga Chapter 256: ''Concealed Truth'']]</ref><ref>OVA 06: ''[[Follow the Vanished Diamond! Conan & Heiji vs. Kid!]]''</ref> He has a scar behind the left ear from being hit during an Oyodo competition as said in episode 263.<br />
<br />
He has also been shown to be popular with girls due to his good looks, position as kendo captain at his high school, and his fame as a high school detective. For example, in episode 263 when several girls tried to flirt with him but he had switched his gear with another team member to make a last minute call to Conan to visit his match. This was shown in Magic File 4: The Osaka Okonomiyaki Killer where several girls came to ask for an autograph and in [[OVA 9]], he was referred to as a lady killer.<br />
{{clear}}<br />
<br />
== Skills ==<br />
=== Keen Intellect ===<br />
Heiji's detective skills are same as Shinichi's. Because of his skills, Heiji has acquired his nick name "The Great Detective Of The West". Like Shinichi, he has a keen eye for details, and can spot any unusual aspects in a case that most people tend to ignore or not take into account and has extraordinarily broad and deep knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to recall every detail of an investigation, and may have a photographic memory to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Heiji's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony. However, unlike Shinichi, Heiji seem to be more competitive and hot-blooded while solving a case, which sometimes leads him into making a wrong deduction [[Diplomat Murder Case|i.e. the case in his first appearance.]] Like the other "geniuses" detectives, Heiji has shown himself to have an eidetic memory, capable of remembering complex letter and number sequences at only a glance, such as when he was able to solve a code in his head during the "Heiji and Kazuha in Grave Danger" arc, and even reproduce another message using the same code to text to Conan. When Heiji and Shinichi work together, they're each other's equal and will often arrive at the same conclusions. But when they compete with each other or their deductions differ, Shinichi usually wins. Recent cases have begun to subvert this, but usually only with subjects Heiji specializes in - e.g. kendo. He is also good if it comes to someone who has his own dialect, Kansai dialect.<br />
<br />
=== Athletic ability ===<br />
Heiji is the fifth position, or taisho, and captain of his high school Kendo team. Heiji may disable criminals using an improvised bokken similar to how Conan uses his soccer skills. Heiji is also very nimble, able to jump higher than a bookshelf, seamlessly scale the side of the staircase, and balance perfectly on a katana. This is shown in episode 263 of the anime, when Kotegawa tries to kill him.<br />
<br />
=== Others ===<br />
Heiji is also a capable motorcycle rider. He also speaks fluent English as shown ep 278. During episode 291, Heiji has shown to have the ability to deduce a woman's swimsuit without actually looking at it. In episode 516, he is also shown to have a "Kudou Radar" where he correctly guessed Conan's involvement in the case without actually seeing Conan.<br />

== Plot overview ==<br />
=== Great Detective of the West (Manga: [[Volume 10#Great Detective of the_West|92-96]], Anime: [[Diplomat Murder Case|48-49]]) ===<br />
One day, Conan (using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|Voice-Changer Tie]] to imitate [[Shinichi Kudo|his old voice]]) calls [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] to tell her once again that he is all right and that he is still stuck with the 'special case' when Ran hangs up on him as someone has just entered the detective agency. Coming home, Conan finds to his surprise that the 'customer' is a youth who keeps demanding to see Shinichi Kudo. He had read of Kogoro solving cases and jumps to the conclusion that he is getting help from Shinichi. When Ran mentions that Shinichi has just called, without asking about Ran's state, the youth deduces that Shinichi must actually be nearby, watching Ran from afar. He then introduces himself as high school detective Heiji Hattori and presents a gift, a bottle of [[baijiu]], of which he gives Conan a swig. Just then, Kimie Tsujimura, the wife of a known diplomat, enters [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]]'s office to ask him to investigate the girlfriend of her son. In order to be inconspicuous, Kogoro takes Ran and Conan along, and Heiji, hoping to flush out Shinichi, tags along as well. What is originally meant to be a simple investigation job turns out to be a murder case, as they find Kimie's husband slain at his desk.<br />
<br />
=== Holmes Freak Case (Manga: [[Volume 12#Holmes Freak Case|117-121]], Anime: [[Holmes Freak Murder Case|57-58]]) ===<br />
After this first case, it only takes one more run-in with Conan to get Heiji thinking about the similarities between Conan and Shinichi. It is on the "[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]" that Heiji, despite professing a preference for [[Wikipedia: Ellery Queen|Ellery Queen]], exercises the Holmesian axiom: "When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." In addition, after Conan had [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|knocked him out]] to use him as his mouthpiece to present his evidence, Heiji receives a clout on the head from [[Kogoro Mouri]], which wakes him up again, and from the corner of his eye he spies Conan standing behind him and using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie]] to mimic his voice; he thus discovers Conan's secret, which forces Conan to explain his situation.<br />
<br />
=== Bond of Fire Case (Manga: [[Volume 15#Bond of Fire Case|150-153]], Anime: [[Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case|77-78]]) ===<br />
On their third case together, Conan was initially irritated to see Heiji, but they quickly formed a strong team. Together they cornered the murderer and even took steps to preventing the suicide she had planned. When she realizes that she won't be able to kill herself she weeps piteously, causing Heiji to whisper to Conan, "perhaps we should have let her die." Conan replies that "a detective who corners a murderer with logic and then lets them commit suicide is no better than a murderer."<br />
<br />
=== Mystery Writer Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Mystery Writer Case|183]], Anime: [[The Mystery Writer Disappearance Case|117]]) ===<br />
Heiji calls Conan having deciphered the text in the first new chapter, and with this information Conan manages to solve the rest of the hidden riddles.<br />
<br />
=== Stabbed Wallet Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Stabbed Wallet Case|185-188]], Anime: [[The Naniwa Serial Murder Case|118]]) ===<br />
Heiji invites Conan (and [[Kogoro Mouri]] and [[Ran Mouri]], because otherwise it'd look suspicious) to Osaka. It is revealed by [[Kazuha Toyama]] (in her first appearance) that Heiji has been talking about 'Kudo' so often that Kazuha thought 'Kudo' was his new Tokyo girlfriend. Heiji suggests that the reason he invited Conan to Osaka is because he has been worried about Conan's safety; he has had dreams of Conan being murdered. On a case together in Osaka, Heiji gives Conan his omamori, which ends up saving his life by deflecting a knife thrust. However, without it Heiji is injured while trying to prevent the murderer from committing suicide. In the ambulance, he reveals to Conan that he has taken to heart Conan's admonishment.<br />
<br />
=== Wedding Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 21#Wedding Murder Case|211-214]], Anime: [[The Night Before the Wedding Locked Room Case|141-142]]) ===<br />
Heiji and Kazuha visit Tokyo accompanied by Kogoro, Ran, and Conan. They run into Heiji's father's friend and are invited to their mansion. There a murder occurs and his father's friend is found dead in a locked room. It seems he was dragged to another room after being stabbed in the heart. Continuing the investigation, Heiji proclaims the butler was the murderer and he is taken away, screaming his innocence. Late that night, an unknown man takes the murder weapon and tries to place it in a bag, but is caught by Heiji and Conan who reveal that they placed the blame on the butler to lure out the true culprit.

After the police arrive, it seems likely that the man committed suicide. However, Conan and Heiji have their doubts. Heiji immediately destroys the theory of suicide by showing that the man who fell from his apartment attempted to grab onto a curtain to save his life. Conan and Heiji reveal the truth by showing how the room was switched around so that when the man was drunken he would expect to be stepping out onto the balcony, but instead would wind up falling. After they solve the case, Heiji asks Jodie who she is. In reply, Jodie asks Heiji the same question. When Conan and Heiji leave, they concur that Jodie is suspicious but innocuous.

Ito demands Heiji to solve a code made by Kasukawa which contains a seven-digit-code to a safe box containing evidence of her scandal. While held at gunpoint, Heiji sends a modified version of the code to Kogoro and asks him to solve it. Conan manages to solve the code, realizing that K, Q, and J stand for King, Queen, and Jack and replaces them with numbers accordingly. When Heiji receives the code back from Kogoro, he tells Misari he will tell her the seven digits and they head to the bank. Conan realizes the last three digits are actually letters and realizes what Heiji is trying to tell him and replies a modified code. Heiji tells Misari Ito he will tell her the seven digits and they head to the bank. Heiji reveals that the numbers, if placed in a 3 by 3 diagram, will create a diagram of a dice with the 1's representing the dots on a dice. Heiji reveals that the code he sent Kogoro had the letters LIB meaning Libra which is referring to the scales Libra and the attorney badge Ito has; He explains that the code "Kogoro" replied with means to "Lure One of them Out".

Humorously, all the cases that appeared to be linked to a serial killer, were not connected at all. It was all done to lessen the suspicion on the culprit's true intention of murder. During their conversation, Heiji invited Kogoro and Conan to assist him in a new case that he wished to solve. They keep a close watch on the house whose occupant had asked for their assistance, even after the one who requested them declined the service. They kept surveillance for a long time until Ran called and asked them to hurry back home for dinner. Just as they left, the house went up in flames, along with a red horse. The woman who had asked them for help was burnt to death.

Heiji, along with Ran, Kogoro and Kazuha, finds Shinichi with his memory completely erased, during a village trip. They are also surprised to find that almost everyone in the village seems to hate Shinichi, due to a supposedly 'stupid' and 'flawed' solution he gave about the deaths of the local leader and his wife, one year ago. A news reporter, who was present to cover the original case, accuses Shinichi of faking the memory loss and states that she knows the 'truth' about him. The next morning, the reporter is found stabbed, with no one but Shinichi in the house, and a knife with him, turning him into the one and only suspect. <br />
<br />
Heiji takes it upon himself to both prove Shinichi's innocence and hide him from the police, helped by Ran, Kogoro and Kazuha. He skilfully proves that the culprit had undergone cosmetic surgery, to impersonate Shinichi and commit a crime to destroy his reputation. The real Shinichi, too, turns up (after mistakenly ingesting [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]]'s APTX 4869 antidote prototype) to justify his deductions about the year-old double deaths.<br />
<br />
After the antidote's effects start wearing off, Heiji tries to prevent Shinichi from turning into Conan in front of Ran, by taking him to the toilet and asking him to hide in his (Heiji's) travel bag, so that he can make up some story about the disappearance and get him home.<br />

<br />
== Non-canon plot overview ==<br />
<br />
== Relationships analysis ==<br />
=== Kazuha Toyama ===<br />
{{main|Heiji Hattori and Kazuha Toyama}}<br />
Like Shinichi's relationship with Ran, Heiji's relationship with [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] is a very close one: they know each other since their childhoods, and have stayed close through the years. Their relationship is identified as a romantic one by other characters and fans alike, even though they claim that they don't have that sort of relationship or feelings for each other. Heiji is clueless when it comes to love and in the majority of the manga and anime has not yet realized he has actual feelings for Kazuha, until recently. On the class trip where Ran and Shinichi almost share a kiss, Heiji is explicitly jealous, all the while thinking of Kazuha, even saying “[he’s] running out of places to confess.” While it’s unknown when he plans on confessing, it is clear that Heiji loves Kazuha. It has been shown that he becomes visibly jealous when he sees Kazuha with other guys, becoming distracted throughout the whole case. At one point, after a certain case, while looking at Kazuha, his thoughts read: 'Fool. You're too naive. I promise you, as long as you're with me, I'll never let anyone hurt you.'. Kazuha knows she has feelings for Heiji, as she shows this by being protective and chasing off other women that might have a interest in him In on of the mangas Kazuha attempts to confess her feelings after finding out that Shinichi had done so with Ran, but is unlucky because by telling him, Heiji ran off to tease Conan(Shinichi) for it. She one time even attempted to sacrifice herself to save Heiji during a case in which accidentally both fell off a cliff. When the branch that Heiji was holding and both of them were hanging on to was breaking, she stabbed his hand with an arrow of love to prevent him from falling and force him to let her fall; however, he still held on despite the wound. Also, they have a similar situation to Ran and Shinichi, being childhood friends that have romantic feelings for each other and have similar backgrounds. Heiji is a teenage detective and she is a police detective's daughter, like Ran is a detective's daughter and Shinichi is a teenage detective. They are even called the 'Ran and Shinichi of Osaka' by fans of the series, since they're so similar. Although they are constantly fighting, they both are very close friends. It is also shown in the seventh movie, ''[[Crossroad in the Ancient Capital]]'', that Kazuha is Heiji's first love, though he didn't know it was her at the time. In the most recent case, Heiji confessed to Kazuha when she was taken away by some suspicious men, saying "What are you doing to my Kazuha?!". When Kazuha questioned him about it, he claimed that she was wrong and there was no evidence that proves his confession (although Shinichi recorded it). Nonetheless, it is shown in the file 912 that he has actually realized his feelings for her, as Ran questions him about the confession. He denies it to her, but thinks that he needed a more important place to confess, as Kudo confessed in front of the Big Ben.<br />
<br />
=== Shinichi Kudo/Conan Edogawa ===<br />
[[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]<br />
His sharp intellect helped Heiji quickly figure out Conan's real identity as Shinichi. Heiji acts rather brotherly towards [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]], even going so far as to pretend to be him on various occasions so that no one figures out that Shinichi and Conan are the same person. Of course, this might also be to make up for all the times Heiji calls him Kudo, which has nearly given Shinichi away multiple times. Heiji is concerned for Shinichi when he gets into trouble and life-or-death situations. They are as close as real brothers, both being detectives who have romantic feelings for their childhood friends. When they're caught solving a case together, it's not unusual for their minds to move in sync; because of this and several other factors, they maintain a sort of friendly rivalry with each other. However, they are both all business when a case gets serious. Heiji has, on several occasions, declared himself to be Shinichi's best friend.<ref>English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective</ref> He also becomes extremely determined to one-up Shinichi's London confession to Ran by creating an even better setting to one day confess his love to his childhood friend, Kazuha.<br />
<br />
Even with his teasing, Heiji genuinely wants Shinichi (Conan) and Ran to become a couple. He once suggested that Shinichi tell Ran the truth about the Black Organization to ease both of their suffering.<br />
<br />
=== Ran Mouri ===<br />
Heiji and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] are very good friends, bonding after Heiji's many trips to Tokyo because he "misses Conan". Ran respects Heiji as a very skilled detective who reminds her of Shinichi, but whenever Heiji and Kazuha run into an argument, Ran seems to take Kazuha's side.<br />
<br />
Since Heiji knows that Ran is Shinichi's Girlfriend, he tends to tease Shinichi about her quite often and will give him advice on his romantic relationship with her. He is also sometimes protective of her for the sake of Shinichi, such as when [[Soshi Okita]] flirted with Ran and he told him to back off since she is "his friend's girl" referring to Shinichi.<ref>Episode 916</ref> Since it's practically identical with his relationship with Kazuha (Even though they aren't on the same level as Shinichi & Ran's romantic relationship).<br />
<br />
Heiji almost views Ran as a sister, as he will tease her from time to time and he'll help explain things to her during cases along with Kazuha.<br />
<br />
=== Heizo Hattori ===<br />
Heiji wants to become a detective, and his [[Heizo Hattori|father]] is very supportive of this, helping him solve tough cases. However, his father prefers a "tough love" approach, though mostly for the sole purpose of using Heiji to lure out a suspect.<ref>Episode 263</ref><br />
<br />
=== Shizuka Hattori ===<br />
[[Shizuka Hattori|Shizuka]] is Heiji's mother and he sometimes calls her an "old lady".<br />
<br />
=== Kogoro Mouri ===<br />
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] respects him a little as a detective, but due to Heiji being the better detective, he seems to get annoyed whenever Heiji is with him while solving cases.<br />
<br />
=== Goro Otaki ===<br />
[[Goro Otaki|Otaki]] and Heiji are very good friends.<br />
<br />
=== Juzo Megure ===<br />
Usually [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] gets a little annoyed whenever Heiji runs into a case he is handling. He often tells Kogoro to not to lose to an outsider like Heiji. Despite this, Megure respects Heiji as a very skilled detective, and he has even declared Heiji as a better detective than Shinichi.<br />
<br />
=== Momiji Ooka ===<br />
[[Momiji Ooka|Momiji]] is close to her "future husband" Heiji. According to the 21st movie (which has yet to be contradicted by the manga / anime), they met as children and played karuta together. Heiji made a "pinky promise" with her about playing more later, which Momiji mistook as a marriage proposal. Unbeknownst to Heiji, Momiji held on the promise for several years, firmly believing that they are destined to be together.<br />
However, despite Momiji's feelings for Heiji, he does not reciprocate them most likely because of his feelings for Kazuha.<br />

== Name origin ==<br />
Heiji's name comes from fictional Edo period police detective {{nihongo|[[Wikipedia: Zenigata Heiji|Zenigata Heiji]]|銭形 平次}}. His surname stems from Inspector Hattori, a police officer who often cooperates with Detective Shunsaku Kudo of the TV Drama [[wikipedia:ja:探偵物語|Tantei Monogatari (Detective Tales)]].<br />

'''{{nihongo|Heiji Hattori|服部 平次|Hattori Heiji}}''', also known as '''Harley Hartwell''' in the Funimation dub, is an Osakan high school detective in the manga and anime series ''[[Detective Conan]]''. He is a childhood friend and the romantic interest of [[Kazuha Toyama]]. Originally a detective rival to [[Shinichi Kudo]], Heiji has since [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|found out]] [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s true identity and the two often team up to work on cases. He was the first person to ''deduce'' Conan's true identity.<br />
<br />
== Background ==<br />
[[File:Cuffed.png|thumb|left|200px|Heiji and Kazuha cuffed together as children.]]<br />
Heiji is a high school detective, and the son of [[Heizo Hattori]], chief of the Osaka Police Department, and his wife [[Shizuka Hattori]]. Heiji wants to be a detective like his father since spending his childhood looking for lost cats in his neighborhood, and he is also very skilled in kendo and has become a favored tournament contender for his school.<br />
<br />
At one time during their childhood, Heiji had had the unfortunate idea of locking himself and his friend [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] together with a set of old handcuffs which had no key to unlock it; as a result they involuntarily had to spend time together even on some rather intimate occasions (i.e., bathroom visits) before the cuffs could be removed. As a reminder of this 'closeness' and for good luck, Kazuha fashioned two identical lucky charms, each incorporating a chain link from the cuffs, which she and Heiji have been wearing ever since.<ref name=StabbedWallet>Manga Volume 19: Files 185 (Stabbed Wallet Case)</ref><br />
<br />
In the news, Heiji has been publicly declared the "Great Detective of the West", while [[Shinichi Kudo]] is the "Great Detective of the East". As a result, Heiji showed up unannounced at the Mouri Detective Agency looking for Kudo, seeking to challenge his rival to a showdown of wits. (In fact, they had such a contest before, three years previously, [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|during a skiing trip in the Yamagata prefecture]], although they never learned about each other's identities at that time.<ref>Manga Chapters 518-522: Yuki-Onna Murder Case</ref>) Heiji was soundly defeated in the following case after [[Conan Edogawa]] temporarily turned back into Shinichi, but he gained a lot of respect for Shinichi in the process.<ref>Manga Chapters 092-096: The Great Detective Of The West</ref><br />
<br />
During their second encounter, Conan knocked Heiji out to use him as the mouthpiece for the voice-changing bow-tie. But during his final presentation of the facts, Heiji awoke prematurely and discovered Conan's secret, and in the end managed to blackmail Conan into revealing all.<ref>Manga Chapters 121: The Holmes Freak Case: The Revelation</ref> Ever since that revelation, Heiji has been helping Conan in hiding his secret identity, though he constantly slips up by calling him "Kudo" in front of [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and Kazuha. <br />
<br />
Heiji and Conan most often congenially team up to solve assorted cases. Heiji has also helped Conan investigate the [[Black Organization]] on several occasions, such as when the two investigated [[Jodie Starling]],<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=34|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 2-7|language=English}}</ref> or when Heiji investigated [[Eisuke Hondou]] on his own and then told Conan his findings<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=56|chapter=Files 7|language=Japanese}}</ref>, but he never had a real direct confrontation with the primary antagonist. He has also helped cover for Conan during several of the brief instances where Conan regained his true adolescent age, and has even disguised himself as Shinichi on several occasions in order to protect his identity, even though he is not very good at it (mostly owing to his distinctive Kansai dialect). When not working on a case, he regularly attempts to invite Conan to take in the sights and culinary delights of Osaka, which he considers more wholesome than Tokyo's.<br />
{{clearleft}}<br />
<br />
== Personality ==<br />
Even while solving a case, Heiji tends to be lighthearted and good-humored, preferring to work through it with a grin on his face. He is a big fan of baseball, and is most of the time shown wearing an Osaka cap, to support the local Osaka baseball team. He usually wears his cap with its visor pointed backward, but if he feels challenged, he turns the visor forward.<br />
<br />
Heiji is known for his pride as an Osaka citizen and for his thick Osakan accent, which has been pointed out and sometimes made fun numerous times. However, Heiji holds his head high and is always one to brag about the greatness of Osaka, especially when Conan comes to visit. <br />
<br />
Despite him knowing the value and necessity of remaining calm in the face of a crime, Heiji tends to be impulsive at times, which tends to cloud his judgment a little. This was discussed directly in the "Detective Koushien" case, when [[Saguru Hakuba]] accused Heiji of being a poor detective for disrupting a crime scene in his rush to see if the victim could still be saved. Heiji, however, solved the case in the end, and reminded Saguru that the detective's first job is to prevent death if he can. Heiji is also known to be extremely protective of those he values as close friends, and tries hard to keep them out of harm. There are several instances where Hattori tells Kazuha to wait for him or leaves her behind in order to keep her from being involved in cases, simply because he's afraid of her getting hurt.<ref>Manga Volume 59, File 6, pg 6: Armored Warrior</ref><ref>Manga Volume 59, File 7, pg 11: Art of War</ref><ref name=653p3>Manga Volume 63, File 1, page 3: My Deduction</ref><br />
<br />
Furthermore, he's pretty much always watching Shinichi's back, and does whatever he can to not only keep Shinichi safe, but to keep his identity under cover. However, on one occasion Heiji advised Conan to tell the truth, when Ran had convinced herself that Conan was Shinichi and thus willingly gave him blood after being shot. <br />
<br />
Heiji occasionally enjoys teasing Shinichi's kid form. He has fun jokingly (sometimes mistakenly) calling Conan "Kudo" in front of Ran at his friend's expense. He often treats Conan/ Shinichi as a younger brother and their close relationship even evokes Kazuha's jealousy from time to time. In return Conan truly trusts and respects Heiji.<br />
<br />
Although he is very competitive when it comes to detective cases, when a case gets hot, he and Shinichi work effectively together. During Shinichi's first return to his high school during the play performance, Heiji had let him take the lead role in the investigations, saying that it was because they were in Tokyo, Shinichi's turf.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=26|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 1-7|language=English}}</ref> <br />
<br />
Although he frequently mocks Kazuha for her superstitions and enthusiasm for good-luck charms, Heiji has several times revealed that he puts more trust in them than he would admit. He once dreamed of Shinichi being murdered, and out subsequently insisted that Conan wear his omamori, the good luck charm Kazuha gave him. The omamori ended up saving Shinichi's life by deflecting a knife blow, but Heiji, without his usual protection, was shot in the stomach.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=19|chapter=Files 5-8|language=Japanese}}</ref> In another case, Ran hung a teruterubozu, a charm that's supposed to ensure good weather, in the window so that Conan would have good weather for his field trip the next day. Heiji, however, got up in the middle of the night to take down the teruterubozu so that Conan's field trip would be rained out and he could accompany Heiji on an investigation of the The Red Horse Among The Flames.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=39|language=Japanese}}</ref><br />
<br />
During the "Bond of Fire" case, Heiji questions Conan if they were right in stopping the culprit from committing suicide, leading to the latter responding that if a detective knows a criminal is about to commit suicide and does nothing to stop it, then the detective is no better than a murderer. Heiji takes to this heart, as evidenced by him stopping the serial murderer in the "Stabbed Wallet" case from committing suicide.<br />
<br />
His relationship with Shinichi/Conan from his end. In Heiji's first appearance, he traveled all the way to Tokyo to challenge Shinichi Kudo to a deduction battle so he could win and show he was the superior detective of the two. After Shinichi solves the case (which included correcting Heiji's wrong assumptions), the Tokyoite detective then gives a short speech to the Osakan that there's no such thing as the superior or inferior detective, only the truth; Heiji is left both speechless and amazed. Throughout his subsequent appearances,(which involved deducing "Conan's" real identity), Heiji may have kept his competitiveness towards his fellow detective, but he now considers Shinichi/Conan to be his partner and best friend, willing to do anything to ensure his happiness and safety.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Appearance ==<br />
[[File:vlcsnap-2013-09-20-15h27m58s194.png|thumb|right|200px|Heiji talks about his skin color in movie 7.]]<br />
Heiji is a handsome man with dark brown, spiky hair and dark brown skin which he claims is inherited from his grandfather.<ref>Chapter 278</ref> His eyes are blue in the manga (like every character). Initially, his eyes appeared dark green, but are now blue<ref>Episode 710</ref>. He speaks with a strong Kansai Ben accent, which is typical of the Osaka region. Since Heiji is so strongly accustomed to this accent, his lingual habit can be a disadvantage at times, especially when he has to impersonate someone who uses standard Japanese.<ref>[[Volume 26# School Play Case|Manga Chapter 256: ''Concealed Truth'']]</ref><ref>OVA 06: ''[[Follow the Vanished Diamond! Conan & Heiji vs. Kid!]]''</ref> He has a scar behind the left ear from being hit during an Oyodo competition as said in episode 263.<br />
<br />
He has also been shown to be popular with girls due to his good looks, position as kendo captain at his high school, and his fame as a high school detective. For example, in episode 263 when several girls tried to flirt with him but he had switched his gear with another team member to make a last minute call to Conan to visit his match. This was shown in Magic File 4: The Osaka Okonomiyaki Killer where several girls came to ask for an autograph and in [[OVA 9]], he was referred to as a lady killer.<br />
{{clear}}<br />
<br />
== Skills ==<br />
=== Keen Intellect ===<br />
Heiji's detective skills are same as Shinichi's. Because of his skills, Heiji has acquired his nick name "The Great Detective Of The West". Like Shinichi, he has a keen eye for details, and can spot any unusual aspects in a case that most people tend to ignore or not take into account and has extraordinarily broad and deep knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to recall every detail of an investigation, and may have a photographic memory to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Heiji's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony. However, unlike Shinichi, Heiji seem to be more competitive and hot-blooded while solving a case, which sometimes leads him into making a wrong deduction [[Diplomat Murder Case|i.e. the case in his first appearance.]] Like the other "geniuses" detectives, Heiji has shown himself to have an eidetic memory, capable of remembering complex letter and number sequences at only a glance, such as when he was able to solve a code in his head during the "Heiji and Kazuha in Grave Danger" arc, and even reproduce another message using the same code to text to Conan. When Heiji and Shinichi work together, they're each other's equal and will often arrive at the same conclusions. But when they compete with each other or their deductions differ, Shinichi usually wins. Recent cases have begun to subvert this, but usually only with subjects Heiji specializes in - e.g. kendo. He is also good if it comes to someone who has his own dialect, Kansai dialect.<br />
<br />
=== Athletic ability ===<br />
Heiji is the fifth position, or taisho, and captain of his high school Kendo team. Heiji may disable criminals using an improvised bokken similar to how Conan uses his soccer skills. Heiji is also very nimble, able to jump higher than a bookshelf, seamlessly scale the side of the staircase, and balance perfectly on a katana. This is shown in episode 263 of the anime, when Kotegawa tries to kill him.<br />
<br />
=== Others ===<br />
Heiji is also a capable motorcycle rider. He also speaks fluent English as shown ep 278. During episode 291, Heiji has shown to have the ability to deduce a woman's swimsuit without actually looking at it. In episode 516, he is also shown to have a "Kudou Radar" where he correctly guessed Conan's involvement in the case without actually seeing Conan.<br />

== Plot overview ==<br />
=== Great Detective of the West (Manga: [[Volume 10#Great Detective of the_West|92-96]], Anime: [[Diplomat Murder Case|48-49]]) ===<br />
One day, Conan (using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|Voice-Changer Tie]] to imitate [[Shinichi Kudo|his old voice]]) calls [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] to tell her once again that he is all right and that he is still stuck with the 'special case' when Ran hangs up on him as someone has just entered the detective agency. Coming home, Conan finds to his surprise that the 'customer' is a youth who keeps demanding to see Shinichi Kudo. He had read of Kogoro solving cases and jumps to the conclusion that he is getting help from Shinichi. When Ran mentions that Shinichi has just called, without asking about Ran's state, the youth deduces that Shinichi must actually be nearby, watching Ran from afar. He then introduces himself as high school detective Heiji Hattori and presents a gift, a bottle of [[baijiu]], of which he gives Conan a swig. Just then, Kimie Tsujimura, the wife of a known diplomat, enters [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]]'s office to ask him to investigate the girlfriend of her son. In order to be inconspicuous, Kogoro takes Ran and Conan along, and Heiji, hoping to flush out Shinichi, tags along as well. What is originally meant to be a simple investigation job turns out to be a murder case, as they find Kimie's husband slain at his desk.<br />
<br />
=== Holmes Freak Case (Manga: [[Volume 12#Holmes Freak Case|117-121]], Anime: [[Holmes Freak Murder Case|57-58]]) ===<br />
After this first case, it only takes one more run-in with Conan to get Heiji thinking about the similarities between Conan and Shinichi. It is on the "[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]" that Heiji, despite professing a preference for [[Wikipedia: Ellery Queen|Ellery Queen]], exercises the Holmesian axiom: "When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." In addition, after Conan had [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|knocked him out]] to use him as his mouthpiece to present his evidence, Heiji receives a clout on the head from [[Kogoro Mouri]], which wakes him up again, and from the corner of his eye he spies Conan standing behind him and using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie]] to mimic his voice; he thus discovers Conan's secret, which forces Conan to explain his situation.<br />

Heiji immediately destroys the theory of suicide by showing that the man who fell from his apartment attempted to grab onto a curtain to save his life.

While held at gunpoint, Heiji sends a modified version of the code to Kogoro and asks him to solve it. Conan manages to solve the code, realizing that K, Q, and J stand for King, Queen, and Jack and replaces them with numbers accordingly. When Heiji receives the code back from Kogoro, he tells Misari he will tell her the seven digits and they head to the bank.

Heiji reveals that the numbers, if placed in a 3 by 3 diagram, will create a diagram of a dice with the 1's representing the dots on a dice. Heiji reveals that the code he sent Kogoro had the letters LIB meaning Libra which is referring to the scales Libra and the attorney badge Ito has; He explains that the code "Kogoro" replied with means to "Lure One of them Out".

A news reporter, who was present to cover the original case, accuses Shinichi of faking the memory loss and states that she knows the 'truth' about him. The next morning, the reporter is found stabbed, with no one but Shinichi in the house, and a knife with him, turning him into the one and only suspect. <br />
<br />
Heiji takes it upon himself to both prove Shinichi's innocence and hide him from the police, helped by Ran, Kogoro and Kazuha.

<br />

<br />
== Non-canon plot overview ==<br />
<br />
== Relationships analysis ==<br />
=== Kazuha Toyama ===<br />
{{main|Heiji Hattori and Kazuha Toyama}}<br />
Like Shinichi's relationship with Ran, Heiji's relationship with [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] is a very close one: they know each other since their childhoods, and have stayed close through the years. Their relationship is identified as a romantic one by other characters and fans alike, even though they claim that they don't have that sort of relationship or feelings for each other. Heiji is clueless when it comes to love and in the majority of the manga and anime has not yet realized he has actual feelings for Kazuha, until recently. On the class trip where Ran and Shinichi almost share a kiss, Heiji is explicitly jealous, all the while thinking of Kazuha, even saying “[he’s] running out of places to confess.” While it’s unknown when he plans on confessing, it is clear that Heiji loves Kazuha. It has been shown that he becomes visibly jealous when he sees Kazuha with other guys, becoming distracted throughout the whole case. At one point, after a certain case, while looking at Kazuha, his thoughts read: 'Fool. You're too naive. I promise you, as long as you're with me, I'll never let anyone hurt you.'. Kazuha knows she has feelings for Heiji, as she shows this by being protective and chasing off other women that might have a interest in him In on of the mangas Kazuha attempts to confess her feelings after finding out that Shinichi had done so with Ran, but is unlucky because by telling him, Heiji ran off to tease Conan(Shinichi) for it. She one time even attempted to sacrifice herself to save Heiji during a case in which accidentally both fell off a cliff. When the branch that Heiji was holding and both of them were hanging on to was breaking, she stabbed his hand with an arrow of love to prevent him from falling and force him to let her fall; however, he still held on despite the wound. Also, they have a similar situation to Ran and Shinichi, being childhood friends that have romantic feelings for each other and have similar backgrounds. Heiji is a teenage detective and she is a police detective's daughter, like Ran is a detective's daughter and Shinichi is a teenage detective. They are even called the 'Ran and Shinichi of Osaka' by fans of the series, since they're so similar. Although they are constantly fighting, they both are very close friends. It is also shown in the seventh movie, ''[[Crossroad in the Ancient Capital]]'', that Kazuha is Heiji's first love, though he didn't know it was her at the time. In the most recent case, Heiji confessed to Kazuha when she was taken away by some suspicious men, saying "What are you doing to my Kazuha?!". When Kazuha questioned him about it, he claimed that she was wrong and there was no evidence that proves his confession (although Shinichi recorded it). Nonetheless, it is shown in the file 912 that he has actually realized his feelings for her, as Ran questions him about the confession. He denies it to her, but thinks that he needed a more important place to confess, as Kudo confessed in front of the Big Ben.<br />
<br />
=== Shinichi Kudo/Conan Edogawa ===<br />
[[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]<br />
His sharp intellect helped Heiji quickly figure out Conan's real identity as Shinichi. Heiji acts rather brotherly towards [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]], even going so far as to pretend to be him on various occasions so that no one figures out that Shinichi and Conan are the same person. Of course, this might also be to make up for all the times Heiji calls him Kudo, which has nearly given Shinichi away multiple times. Heiji is concerned for Shinichi when he gets into trouble and life-or-death situations. They are as close as real brothers, both being detectives who have romantic feelings for their childhood friends. When they're caught solving a case together, it's not unusual for their minds to move in sync; because of this and several other factors, they maintain a sort of friendly rivalry with each other. However, they are both all business when a case gets serious. Heiji has, on several occasions, declared himself to be Shinichi's best friend.<ref>English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective</ref> He also becomes extremely determined to one-up Shinichi's London confession to Ran by creating an even better setting to one day confess his love to his childhood friend, Kazuha.<br />
<br />
Even with his teasing, Heiji genuinely wants Shinichi (Conan) and Ran to become a couple. He once suggested that Shinichi tell Ran the truth about the Black Organization to ease both of their suffering.<br />
<br />
=== Ran Mouri ===<br />
Heiji and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] are very good friends, bonding after Heiji's many trips to Tokyo because he "misses Conan". Ran respects Heiji as a very skilled detective who reminds her of Shinichi, but whenever Heiji and Kazuha run into an argument, Ran seems to take Kazuha's side.<br />
<br />
Since Heiji knows that Ran is Shinichi's Girlfriend, he tends to tease Shinichi about her quite often and will give him advice on his romantic relationship with her. He is also sometimes protective of her for the sake of Shinichi, such as when [[Soshi Okita]] flirted with Ran and he told him to back off since she is "his friend's girl" referring to Shinichi.<ref>Episode 916</ref> Since it's practically identical with his relationship with Kazuha (Even though they aren't on the same level as Shinichi & Ran's romantic relationship).<br />
<br />
Heiji almost views Ran as a sister, as he will tease her from time to time and he'll help explain things to her during cases along with Kazuha.<br />
<br />
=== Heizo Hattori ===<br />
Heiji wants to become a detective, and his [[Heizo Hattori|father]] is very supportive of this, helping him solve tough cases. However, his father prefers a "tough love" approach, though mostly for the sole purpose of using Heiji to lure out a suspect.<ref>Episode 263</ref><br />
<br />
=== Shizuka Hattori ===<br />
[[Shizuka Hattori|Shizuka]] is Heiji's mother and he sometimes calls her an "old lady".<br />
<br />
=== Kogoro Mouri ===<br />
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] respects him a little as a detective, but due to Heiji being the better detective, he seems to get annoyed whenever Heiji is with him while solving cases.<br />
<br />
=== Goro Otaki ===<br />
[[Goro Otaki|Otaki]] and Heiji are very good friends.<br />
<br />
=== Juzo Megure ===<br />
Usually [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] gets a little annoyed whenever Heiji runs into a case he is handling. He often tells Kogoro to not to lose to an outsider like Heiji. Despite this, Megure respects Heiji as a very skilled detective, and he has even declared Heiji as a better detective than Shinichi.<br />
<br />
=== Momiji Ooka ===<br />
[[Momiji Ooka|Momiji]] is close to her "future husband" Heiji. According to the 21st movie (which has yet to be contradicted by the manga / anime), they met as children and played karuta together. Heiji made a "pinky promise" with her about playing more later, which Momiji mistook as a marriage proposal. Unbeknownst to Heiji, Momiji held on the promise for several years, firmly believing that they are destined to be together.<br />
However, despite Momiji's feelings for Heiji, he does not reciprocate them most likely because of his feelings for Kazuha.<br />

== Name origin ==<br />
Heiji's name comes from fictional Edo period police detective {{nihongo|[[Wikipedia: Zenigata Heiji|Zenigata Heiji]]|銭形 平次}}. His surname stems from Inspector Hattori, a police officer who often cooperates with Detective Shunsaku Kudo of the TV Drama [[wikipedia:ja:探偵物語|Tantei Monogatari (Detective Tales)]].<br />

'''{{nihongo|Heiji Hattori|服部 平次|Hattori Heiji}}''', also known as '''Harley Hartwell''' in the Funimation dub, is an Osakan high school detective in the manga and anime series ''[[Detective Conan]]''. He is a childhood friend and the romantic interest of [[Kazuha Toyama]]. Originally a detective rival to [[Shinichi Kudo]], Heiji has since [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|found out]] [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s true identity and the two often team up to work on cases. He was the first person to ''deduce'' Conan's true identity.<br />
<br />
== Background ==<br />
[[File:Cuffed.png|thumb|left|200px|Heiji and Kazuha cuffed together as children.]]<br />
Heiji is a high school detective, and the son of [[Heizo Hattori]], chief of the Osaka Police Department, and his wife [[Shizuka Hattori]]. Heiji wants to be a detective like his father since spending his childhood looking for lost cats in his neighborhood, and he is also very skilled in kendo and has become a favored tournament contender for his school.<br />
<br />
At one time during their childhood, Heiji had had the unfortunate idea of locking himself and his friend [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] together with a set of old handcuffs which had no key to unlock it; as a result they involuntarily had to spend time together even on some rather intimate occasions (i.e., bathroom visits) before the cuffs could be removed. As a reminder of this 'closeness' and for good luck, Kazuha fashioned two identical lucky charms, each incorporating a chain link from the cuffs, which she and Heiji have been wearing ever since.<ref name=StabbedWallet>Manga Volume 19: Files 185 (Stabbed Wallet Case)</ref><br />
<br />
In the news, Heiji has been publicly declared the "Great Detective of the West", while [[Shinichi Kudo]] is the "Great Detective of the East". As a result, Heiji showed up unannounced at the Mouri Detective Agency looking for Kudo, seeking to challenge his rival to a showdown of wits. (In fact, they had such a contest before, three years previously, [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|during a skiing trip in the Yamagata prefecture]], although they never learned about each other's identities at that time.<ref>Manga Chapters 518-522: Yuki-Onna Murder Case</ref>) Heiji was soundly defeated in the following case after [[Conan Edogawa]] temporarily turned back into Shinichi, but he gained a lot of respect for Shinichi in the process.<ref>Manga Chapters 092-096: The Great Detective Of The West</ref><br />
<br />
During their second encounter, Conan knocked Heiji out to use him as the mouthpiece for the voice-changing bow-tie. But during his final presentation of the facts, Heiji awoke prematurely and discovered Conan's secret, and in the end managed to blackmail Conan into revealing all.<ref>Manga Chapters 121: The Holmes Freak Case: The Revelation</ref> Ever since that revelation, Heiji has been helping Conan in hiding his secret identity, though he constantly slips up by calling him "Kudo" in front of [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and Kazuha. <br />
<br />
Heiji and Conan most often congenially team up to solve assorted cases. Heiji has also helped Conan investigate the [[Black Organization]] on several occasions, such as when the two investigated [[Jodie Starling]],<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=34|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 2-7|language=English}}</ref> or when Heiji investigated [[Eisuke Hondou]] on his own and then told Conan his findings<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=56|chapter=Files 7|language=Japanese}}</ref>, but he never had a real direct confrontation with the primary antagonist. He has also helped cover for Conan during several of the brief instances where Conan regained his true adolescent age, and has even disguised himself as Shinichi on several occasions in order to protect his identity, even though he is not very good at it (mostly owing to his distinctive Kansai dialect). When not working on a case, he regularly attempts to invite Conan to take in the sights and culinary delights of Osaka, which he considers more wholesome than Tokyo's.<br />
{{clearleft}}<br />
<br />
== Personality ==<br />
Even while solving a case, Heiji tends to be lighthearted and good-humored, preferring to work through it with a grin on his face. He is a big fan of baseball, and is most of the time shown wearing an Osaka cap, to support the local Osaka baseball team. He usually wears his cap with its visor pointed backward, but if he feels challenged, he turns the visor forward.<br />
<br />
Heiji is known for his pride as an Osaka citizen and for his thick Osakan accent, which has been pointed out and sometimes made fun numerous times. However, Heiji holds his head high and is always one to brag about the greatness of Osaka, especially when Conan comes to visit. <br />
<br />
Despite him knowing the value and necessity of remaining calm in the face of a crime, Heiji tends to be impulsive at times, which tends to cloud his judgment a little. This was discussed directly in the "Detective Koushien" case, when [[Saguru Hakuba]] accused Heiji of being a poor detective for disrupting a crime scene in his rush to see if the victim could still be saved. Heiji, however, solved the case in the end, and reminded Saguru that the detective's first job is to prevent death if he can. Heiji is also known to be extremely protective of those he values as close friends, and tries hard to keep them out of harm. There are several instances where Hattori tells Kazuha to wait for him or leaves her behind in order to keep her from being involved in cases, simply because he's afraid of her getting hurt.<ref>Manga Volume 59, File 6, pg 6: Armored Warrior</ref><ref>Manga Volume 59, File 7, pg 11: Art of War</ref><ref name=653p3>Manga Volume 63, File 1, page 3: My Deduction</ref><br />
<br />
Furthermore, he's pretty much always watching Shinichi's back, and does whatever he can to not only keep Shinichi safe, but to keep his identity under cover. However, on one occasion Heiji advised Conan to tell the truth, when Ran had convinced herself that Conan was Shinichi and thus willingly gave him blood after being shot. <br />
<br />
Heiji occasionally enjoys teasing Shinichi's kid form. He has fun jokingly (sometimes mistakenly) calling Conan "Kudo" in front of Ran at his friend's expense. He often treats Conan/ Shinichi as a younger brother and their close relationship even evokes Kazuha's jealousy from time to time. In return Conan truly trusts and respects Heiji.<br />
<br />
Although he is very competitive when it comes to detective cases, when a case gets hot, he and Shinichi work effectively together. During Shinichi's first return to his high school during the play performance, Heiji had let him take the lead role in the investigations, saying that it was because they were in Tokyo, Shinichi's turf.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=26|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 1-7|language=English}}</ref> <br />
<br />
Although he frequently mocks Kazuha for her superstitions and enthusiasm for good-luck charms, Heiji has several times revealed that he puts more trust in them than he would admit. He once dreamed of Shinichi being murdered, and out subsequently insisted that Conan wear his omamori, the good luck charm Kazuha gave him. The omamori ended up saving Shinichi's life by deflecting a knife blow, but Heiji, without his usual protection, was shot in the stomach.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=19|chapter=Files 5-8|language=Japanese}}</ref> In another case, Ran hung a teruterubozu, a charm that's supposed to ensure good weather, in the window so that Conan would have good weather for his field trip the next day. Heiji, however, got up in the middle of the night to take down the teruterubozu so that Conan's field trip would be rained out and he could accompany Heiji on an investigation of the The Red Horse Among The Flames.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=39|language=Japanese}}</ref><br />
<br />
During the "Bond of Fire" case, Heiji questions Conan if they were right in stopping the culprit from committing suicide, leading to the latter responding that if a detective knows a criminal is about to commit suicide and does nothing to stop it, then the detective is no better than a murderer. Heiji takes to this heart, as evidenced by him stopping the serial murderer in the "Stabbed Wallet" case from committing suicide.<br />
<br />
His relationship with Shinichi/Conan from his end. In Heiji's first appearance, he traveled all the way to Tokyo to challenge Shinichi Kudo to a deduction battle so he could win and show he was the superior detective of the two. After Shinichi solves the case (which included correcting Heiji's wrong assumptions), the Tokyoite detective then gives a short speech to the Osakan that there's no such thing as the superior or inferior detective, only the truth; Heiji is left both speechless and amazed. Throughout his subsequent appearances,(which involved deducing "Conan's" real identity), Heiji may have kept his competitiveness towards his fellow detective, but he now considers Shinichi/Conan to be his partner and best friend, willing to do anything to ensure his happiness and safety.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Appearance ==<br />
[[File:vlcsnap-2013-09-20-15h27m58s194.png|thumb|right|200px|Heiji talks about his skin color in movie 7.]]<br />
Heiji is a handsome man with dark brown, spiky hair and dark brown skin which he claims is inherited from his grandfather.<ref>Chapter 278</ref> His eyes are blue in the manga (like every character). Initially, his eyes appeared dark green, but are now blue<ref>Episode 710</ref>. He speaks with a strong Kansai Ben accent, which is typical of the Osaka region. Since Heiji is so strongly accustomed to this accent, his lingual habit can be a disadvantage at times, especially when he has to impersonate someone who uses standard Japanese.<ref>[[Volume 26# School Play Case|Manga Chapter 256: ''Concealed Truth'']]</ref><ref>OVA 06: ''[[Follow the Vanished Diamond! Conan & Heiji vs. Kid!]]''</ref> He has a scar behind the left ear from being hit during an Oyodo competition as said in episode 263.<br />
<br />
He has also been shown to be popular with girls due to his good looks, position as kendo captain at his high school, and his fame as a high school detective. For example, in episode 263 when several girls tried to flirt with him but he had switched his gear with another team member to make a last minute call to Conan to visit his match. This was shown in Magic File 4: The Osaka Okonomiyaki Killer where several girls came to ask for an autograph and in [[OVA 9]], he was referred to as a lady killer.<br />
{{clear}}<br />
<br />
== Skills ==<br />
=== Keen Intellect ===<br />
Heiji's detective skills are same as Shinichi's. Because of his skills, Heiji has acquired his nick name "The Great Detective Of The West". Like Shinichi, he has a keen eye for details, and can spot any unusual aspects in a case that most people tend to ignore or not take into account and has extraordinarily broad and deep knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to recall every detail of an investigation, and may have a photographic memory to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Heiji's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony. However, unlike Shinichi, Heiji seem to be more competitive and hot-blooded while solving a case, which sometimes leads him into making a wrong deduction [[Diplomat Murder Case|i.e. the case in his first appearance.]] Like the other "geniuses" detectives, Heiji has shown himself to have an eidetic memory, capable of remembering complex letter and number sequences at only a glance, such as when he was able to solve a code in his head during the "Heiji and Kazuha in Grave Danger" arc, and even reproduce another message using the same code to text to Conan. When Heiji and Shinichi work together, they're each other's equal and will often arrive at the same conclusions. But when they compete with each other or their deductions differ, Shinichi usually wins. Recent cases have begun to subvert this, but usually only with subjects Heiji specializes in - e.g. kendo. He is also good if it comes to someone who has his own dialect, Kansai dialect.<br />
<br />
=== Athletic ability ===<br />
Heiji is the fifth position, or taisho, and captain of his high school Kendo team. Heiji may disable criminals using an improvised bokken similar to how Conan uses his soccer skills. Heiji is also very nimble, able to jump higher than a bookshelf, seamlessly scale the side of the staircase, and balance perfectly on a katana. This is shown in episode 263 of the anime, when Kotegawa tries to kill him.<br />
<br />
=== Others ===<br />
Heiji is also a capable motorcycle rider. He also speaks fluent English as shown ep 278. During episode 291, Heiji has shown to have the ability to deduce a woman's swimsuit without actually looking at it. In episode 516, he is also shown to have a "Kudou Radar" where he correctly guessed Conan's involvement in the case without actually seeing Conan.<br />

== Plot overview ==<br />
=== Great Detective of the West (Manga: [[Volume 10#Great Detective of the_West|92-96]], Anime: [[Diplomat Murder Case|48-49]]) ===<br />
One day, Conan (using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|Voice-Changer Tie]] to imitate [[Shinichi Kudo|his old voice]]) calls [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] to tell her once again that he is all right and that he is still stuck with the 'special case' when Ran hangs up on him as someone has just entered the detective agency. Coming home, Conan finds to his surprise that the 'customer' is a youth who keeps demanding to see Shinichi Kudo. He had read of Kogoro solving cases and jumps to the conclusion that he is getting help from Shinichi. When Ran mentions that Shinichi has just called, without asking about Ran's state, the youth deduces that Shinichi must actually be nearby, watching Ran from afar. He then introduces himself as high school detective Heiji Hattori and presents a gift, a bottle of [[baijiu]], of which he gives Conan a swig. Just then, Kimie Tsujimura, the wife of a known diplomat, enters [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]]'s office to ask him to investigate the girlfriend of her son. In order to be inconspicuous, Kogoro takes Ran and Conan along, and Heiji, hoping to flush out Shinichi, tags along as well. What is originally meant to be a simple investigation job turns out to be a murder case, as they find Kimie's husband slain at his desk.<br />
<br />
=== Holmes Freak Case (Manga: [[Volume 12#Holmes Freak Case|117-121]], Anime: [[Holmes Freak Murder Case|57-58]]) ===<br />
After this first case, it only takes one more run-in with Conan to get Heiji thinking about the similarities between Conan and Shinichi. It is on the "[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]" that Heiji, despite professing a preference for [[Wikipedia: Ellery Queen|Ellery Queen]], exercises the Holmesian axiom: "When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." In addition, after Conan had [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|knocked him out]] to use him as his mouthpiece to present his evidence, Heiji receives a clout on the head from [[Kogoro Mouri]], which wakes him up again, and from the corner of his eye he spies Conan standing behind him and using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie]] to mimic his voice; he thus discovers Conan's secret, which forces Conan to explain his situation.<br />

When she realizes that she won't be able to kill herself she weeps piteously, causing Heiji to whisper to Conan, "perhaps we should have let her die." Conan replies that "a detective who corners a murderer with logic and then lets them commit suicide is no better than a murderer."<br />

It is revealed by [[Kazuha Toyama]] (in her first appearance) that Heiji has been talking about 'Kudo' so often that Kazuha thought 'Kudo' was his new Tokyo girlfriend. Heiji suggests that the reason he invited Conan to Osaka is because he has been worried about Conan's safety; he has had dreams of Conan being murdered. On a case together in Osaka, Heiji gives Conan his omamori, which ends up saving his life by deflecting a knife thrust. However, without it Heiji is injured while trying to prevent the murderer from committing suicide. In the ambulance, he reveals to Conan that he has taken to heart Conan's admonishment.<br />

Continuing the investigation, Heiji proclaims the butler was the murderer and he is taken away, screaming his innocence. Late that night, an unknown man takes the murder weapon and tries to place it in a bag, but is caught by Heiji and Conan who reveal that they placed the blame on the butler to lure out the true culprit.

After Jodie agrees to go out for a while with Heiji and Conan, the man living next door to Jodie falls dead outside from over 30 stories coincidentally as the three step outside. After the police arrive, it seems likely that the man committed suicide. However, Conan and Heiji have their doubts. Heiji immediately destroys the theory of suicide by showing that the man who fell from his apartment attempted to grab onto a curtain to save his life. Conan and Heiji reveal the truth by showing how the room was switched around so that when the man was drunken he would expect to be stepping out onto the balcony, but instead would wind up falling. After they solve the case, Heiji asks Jodie who she is. In reply, Jodie asks Heiji the same question. When Conan and Heiji leave, they concur that Jodie is suspicious but innocuous.

Conan manages to solve the code, realizing that K, Q, and J stand for King, Queen, and Jack and replaces them with numbers accordingly. When Heiji receives the code back from Kogoro, he tells Misari he will tell her the seven digits and they head to the bank.

A news reporter, who was present to cover the original case, accuses Shinichi of faking the memory loss and states that she knows the 'truth' about him. The next morning, the reporter is found stabbed, with no one but Shinichi in the house, and a knife with him, turning him into the one and only suspect. <br />

<br />

Heiji and Shinichi, after narrowing down the suspects, together apprehend the criminal with such finesse that even Detective [[Miwako Sato]] (who happened to be present there along with her colleague, [[Wataru Takagi]]) is left surprised.

Their relationship is identified as a romantic one by other characters and fans alike, even though they claim that they don't have that sort of relationship or feelings for each other. Heiji is clueless when it comes to love and in the majority of the manga and anime has not yet realized he has actual feelings for Kazuha, until recently. On the class trip where Ran and Shinichi almost share a kiss, Heiji is explicitly jealous, all the while thinking of Kazuha, even saying “[he’s] running out of places to confess.” While it’s unknown when he plans on confessing, it is clear that Heiji loves Kazuha. It has been shown that he becomes visibly jealous when he sees Kazuha with other guys, becoming distracted throughout the whole case. At one point, after a certain case, while looking at Kazuha, his thoughts read: 'Fool. You're too naive. I promise you, as long as you're with me, I'll never let anyone hurt you.'. Kazuha knows she has feelings for Heiji, as she shows this by being protective and chasing off other women that might have a interest in him In on of the mangas Kazuha attempts to confess her feelings after finding out that Shinichi had done so with Ran, but is unlucky because by telling him, Heiji ran off to tease Conan(Shinichi) for it. She one time even attempted to sacrifice herself to save Heiji during a case in which accidentally both fell off a cliff. When the branch that Heiji was holding and both of them were hanging on to was breaking, she stabbed his hand with an arrow of love to prevent him from falling and force him to let her fall; however, he still held on despite the wound. Also, they have a similar situation to Ran and Shinichi, being childhood friends that have romantic feelings for each other and have similar backgrounds. Heiji is a teenage detective and she is a police detective's daughter, like Ran is a detective's daughter and Shinichi is a teenage detective. They are even called the 'Ran and Shinichi of Osaka' by fans of the series, since they're so similar. Although they are constantly fighting, they both are very close friends. It is also shown in the seventh movie, ''[[Crossroad in the Ancient Capital]]'', that Kazuha is Heiji's first love, though he didn't know it was her at the time. In the most recent case, Heiji confessed to Kazuha when she was taken away by some suspicious men, saying "What are you doing to my Kazuha?!". When Kazuha questioned him about it, he claimed that she was wrong and there was no evidence that proves his confession (although Shinichi recorded it). Nonetheless, it is shown in the file 912 that he has actually realized his feelings for her, as Ran questions him about the confession. He denies it to her, but thinks that he needed a more important place to confess, as Kudo confessed in front of the Big Ben.<br />
<br />
=== Shinichi Kudo/Conan Edogawa ===<br />
[[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]<br />
His sharp intellect helped Heiji quickly figure out Conan's real identity as Shinichi. Heiji acts rather brotherly towards [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]], even going so far as to pretend to be him on various occasions so that no one figures out that Shinichi and Conan are the same person. Of course, this might also be to make up for all the times Heiji calls him Kudo, which has nearly given Shinichi away multiple times. Heiji is concerned for Shinichi when he gets into trouble and life-or-death situations. They are as close as real brothers, both being detectives who have romantic feelings for their childhood friends. When they're caught solving a case together, it's not unusual for their minds to move in sync; because of this and several other factors, they maintain a sort of friendly rivalry with each other. However, they are both all business when a case gets serious. Heiji has, on several occasions, declared himself to be Shinichi's best friend.<ref>English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective</ref> He also becomes extremely determined to one-up Shinichi's London confession to Ran by creating an even better setting to one day confess his love to his childhood friend, Kazuha.<br />
<br />
Even with his teasing, Heiji genuinely wants Shinichi (Conan) and Ran to become a couple. He once suggested that Shinichi tell Ran the truth about the Black Organization to ease both of their suffering.<br />
<br />
=== Ran Mouri ===<br />
Heiji and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] are very good friends, bonding after Heiji's many trips to Tokyo because he "misses Conan". Ran respects Heiji as a very skilled detective who reminds her of Shinichi, but whenever Heiji and Kazuha run into an argument, Ran seems to take Kazuha's side.<br />
<br />
Since Heiji knows that Ran is Shinichi's Girlfriend, he tends to tease Shinichi about her quite often and will give him advice on his romantic relationship with her. He is also sometimes protective of her for the sake of Shinichi, such as when [[Soshi Okita]] flirted with Ran and he told him to back off since she is "his friend's girl" referring to Shinichi.<ref>Episode 916</ref> Since it's practically identical with his relationship with Kazuha (Even though they aren't on the same level as Shinichi & Ran's romantic relationship).<br />
<br />
Heiji almost views Ran as a sister, as he will tease her from time to time and he'll help explain things to her during cases along with Kazuha.<br />
<br />
=== Heizo Hattori ===<br />
Heiji wants to become a detective, and his [[Heizo Hattori|father]] is very supportive of this, helping him solve tough cases. However, his father prefers a "tough love" approach, though mostly for the sole purpose of using Heiji to lure out a suspect.<ref>Episode 263</ref><br />
<br />
=== Shizuka Hattori ===<br />
[[Shizuka Hattori|Shizuka]] is Heiji's mother and he sometimes calls her an "old lady".<br />
<br />
=== Kogoro Mouri ===<br />
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] respects him a little as a detective, but due to Heiji being the better detective, he seems to get annoyed whenever Heiji is with him while solving cases.<br />
<br />
=== Goro Otaki ===<br />
[[Goro Otaki|Otaki]] and Heiji are very good friends.<br />
<br />
=== Juzo Megure ===<br />
Usually [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] gets a little annoyed whenever Heiji runs into a case he is handling. He often tells Kogoro to not to lose to an outsider like Heiji. Despite this, Megure respects Heiji as a very skilled detective, and he has even declared Heiji as a better detective than Shinichi.<br />
<br />
=== Momiji Ooka ===<br />
[[Momiji Ooka|Momiji]] is close to her "future husband" Heiji. According to the 21st movie (which has yet to be contradicted by the manga / anime), they met as children and played karuta together. Heiji made a "pinky promise" with her about playing more later, which Momiji mistook as a marriage proposal. Unbeknownst to Heiji, Momiji held on the promise for several years, firmly believing that they are destined to be together.<br />
However, despite Momiji's feelings for Heiji, he does not reciprocate them most likely because of his feelings for Kazuha.<br />
<br />

== Name origin ==<br />
Heiji's name comes from fictional Edo period police detective {{nihongo|[[Wikipedia: Zenigata Heiji|Zenigata Heiji]]|銭形 平次}}. His surname stems from Inspector Hattori, a police officer who often cooperates with Detective Shunsaku Kudo of the TV Drama [[wikipedia:ja:探偵物語|Tantei Monogatari (Detective Tales)]].<br />

== Trivia ==<br />
* In OVA 9, Heiji and Kazuha are asked, "When are you two getting married?" However, this can be dismissed as it was all part of Conan's dream.<br />
* Heiji's favorite author is Ellery Queen.<br />
* In File 1020 (part 3 of the Fairy's Lips Heist), it's mentioned that Heiji can't stand air conditioners, and can't sleep without a fan on.<br />
* It has become the series' trope that Heiji (and sometimes Kazuha) often appear in long cases (more than three chapters) setting in isolated and remote locations. Their entries are often mentioned at the end of the preceding case as well.<br />
*He usually wears his cap with its visor pointed backward, but during a case, he turns the visor forward. At the end of whatever case he's on, Heiji turn the visor backwards again.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />
<br />
==The Mysterious Passenger (Manga: [[Volume_29#Bus_Hijacking_Case|287-289]], Anime: [[The Mysterious Passenger|230-231]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_protecting_Conan.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide protects Conan on the hijacked bus]]<br />
At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />
<br />
==Sato’s marriage arrangement (Manga: [[Volume_32#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|328]]-[[Volume_33#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ==<br />
Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned. This is later revealed to be Vermouth who needed to get information on Araide’s case so she could testify at the trial properly. She also intended to lure the FBI out by getting them watch Mouri Kogoro’s office.<br />
<br />
==Time To Pick The Apple (Manga: [[Volume_34#Escalator_Message_Case|340]], Anime: [[The Secret Rushed Omission|272]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />
<br />
==The Hint That Was Against (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|341]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277]])==<br />
Conan tells Agasa the case files stolen by Vermouth earlier were also returned. Conan is unsure of why.<br />
<br />
==Who are you? (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|278]])==<br />
Jodie has pictures of the pictures that Vermouth had with the exception of Shiho’s. The office had been broken into by FBI prior to this point in time.<br />
<br />
==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />
<br />
==White Snow, Black Shadow (Manga: [[Volume_37#Footsteps_of_Darkness|380]], Anime: [[Contact with the Black Organization|309]])==<br />
[[Image:SharonItakura.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sharon and Itakura arguing]]<br />
One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />

==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />

===The Fullmoon Night and Black Banquet Trap ([[Volume_42#File_429_-_The_Full_Moon_and_the_Trap_at_the_Banquet|429]])===<br />
Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

==Teitan High School's Ghost Story (Manga: [[Volume_44#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|457]]-[[Volume_45#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|459]], Anime: [[Teitan High School's Ghost Story|361-362]])== <br />
The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />
<br />
==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

[[Jodie]] is on the phone to [[Natsuko Shibuya]] (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

She then reveals to Bourbon that Kusuda shot himself in his car. She then goes on to ask Bourbon who [[Rikumichi Kusuda]] is and why a man without a code name (for the organisation) is important. Bourbon smiles and hints to Vermouth that Akai died the same way(ie. Akai is still alive, and Kusuda's body was used), Vemrouth however does not believe him as Akai's body was checked and verified by fingerprint scans from the police and FBI. Bourbon then says we will soon find out soon.<br />

[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />
<br />
==The Mysterious Passenger (Manga: [[Volume_29#Bus_Hijacking_Case|287-289]], Anime: [[The Mysterious Passenger|230-231]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_protecting_Conan.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide protects Conan on the hijacked bus]]<br />
At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />
<br />

Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned. This is later revealed to be Vermouth who needed to get information on Araide’s case so she could testify at the trial properly. She also intended to lure the FBI out by getting them watch Mouri Kogoro’s office.<br />

[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />
<br />
==The Hint That Was Against (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|341]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277]])==<br />
Conan tells Agasa the case files stolen by Vermouth earlier were also returned. Conan is unsure of why.<br />
<br />
==Who are you? (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|278]])==<br />
Jodie has pictures of the pictures that Vermouth had with the exception of Shiho’s. The office had been broken into by FBI prior to this point in time.<br />
<br />
==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />
<br />
==White Snow, Black Shadow (Manga: [[Volume_37#Footsteps_of_Darkness|380]], Anime: [[Contact with the Black Organization|309]])==<br />
[[Image:SharonItakura.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sharon and Itakura arguing]]<br />
One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />
<br />
==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />
<br />
==Hidden Bathroom Secret (Manga: [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|423]]-[[Volume_42#Bathroom_Murder_Case|425]], Anime: [[Hidden Bathroom Secret|340-341]])==<br />
Vermouth is listening in on bugs that have been planted in the house to Conan and Agasa’s discussion about an architect friend of Professor Miyano’s. Conan knows about the bugs, but doesn’t remove them because he isn’t sure of the consequences might be. Later, Vermouth contacts Calvados and tells him to finish off someone.<br />
<br />
==Head to Head with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_42#Halloween_Party_Case|429-434]], Anime: [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|345]])==<br />
===The Fullmoon Night and Black Banquet Trap ([[Volume_42#File_429_-_The_Full_Moon_and_the_Trap_at_the_Banquet|429]])===<br />
Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />
<br />
==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

[[Jodie]] is on the phone to [[Natsuko Shibuya]] (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

Episode 781- It is revealed that Vermouth was disguised as Jodie, to ask Camel about Rikumichi Kusuda.Bourbon picks her up outside the hospital. She then reveals to Bourbon that Kusuda shot himself in his car. She then goes on to ask Bourbon who [[Rikumichi Kusuda]] is and why a man without a code name (for the organisation) is important. Bourbon smiles and hints to Vermouth that Akai died the same way(ie. Akai is still alive, and Kusuda's body was used), Vemrouth however does not believe him as Akai's body was checked and verified by fingerprint scans from the police and FBI. Bourbon then says we will soon find out soon.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />
<br />
==The Mysterious Passenger (Manga: [[Volume_29#Bus_Hijacking_Case|287-289]], Anime: [[The Mysterious Passenger|230-231]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_protecting_Conan.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide protects Conan on the hijacked bus]]<br />
At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />
<br />
==Sato’s marriage arrangement (Manga: [[Volume_32#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|328]]-[[Volume_33#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ==<br />
Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned. This is later revealed to be Vermouth who needed to get information on Araide’s case so she could testify at the trial properly. She also intended to lure the FBI out by getting them watch Mouri Kogoro’s office.<br />
<br />
==Time To Pick The Apple (Manga: [[Volume_34#Escalator_Message_Case|340]], Anime: [[The Secret Rushed Omission|272]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />
<br />
==The Hint That Was Against (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|341]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277]])==<br />
Conan tells Agasa the case files stolen by Vermouth earlier were also returned. Conan is unsure of why.<br />
<br />
==Who are you? (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|278]])==<br />
Jodie has pictures of the pictures that Vermouth had with the exception of Shiho’s. The office had been broken into by FBI prior to this point in time.<br />
<br />
==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />
<br />
==White Snow, Black Shadow (Manga: [[Volume_37#Footsteps_of_Darkness|380]], Anime: [[Contact with the Black Organization|309]])==<br />
[[Image:SharonItakura.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sharon and Itakura arguing]]<br />
One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />
<br />
==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />
<br />
==Hidden Bathroom Secret (Manga: [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|423]]-[[Volume_42#Bathroom_Murder_Case|425]], Anime: [[Hidden Bathroom Secret|340-341]])==<br />
Vermouth is listening in on bugs that have been planted in the house to Conan and Agasa’s discussion about an architect friend of Professor Miyano’s. Conan knows about the bugs, but doesn’t remove them because he isn’t sure of the consequences might be. Later, Vermouth contacts Calvados and tells him to finish off someone.<br />
<br />
==Head to Head with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_42#Halloween_Party_Case|429-434]], Anime: [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|345]])==<br />
===The Fullmoon Night and Black Banquet Trap ([[Volume_42#File_429_-_The_Full_Moon_and_the_Trap_at_the_Banquet|429]])===<br />
Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />
<br />
==Teitan High School's Ghost Story (Manga: [[Volume_44#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|457]]-[[Volume_45#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|459]], Anime: [[Teitan High School's Ghost Story|361-362]])== <br />
The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />
<br />
==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

<br />
[[Jodie]] is on the phone to [[Natsuko Shibuya]] (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

Episode 781- It is revealed that Vermouth was disguised as Jodie, to ask Camel about Rikumichi Kusuda.Bourbon picks her up outside the hospital. She then reveals to Bourbon that Kusuda shot himself in his car. She then goes on to ask Bourbon who [[Rikumichi Kusuda]] is and why a man without a code name (for the organisation) is important. Bourbon smiles and hints to Vermouth that Akai died the same way(ie. Akai is still alive, and Kusuda's body was used), Vemrouth however does not believe him as Akai's body was checked and verified by fingerprint scans from the police and FBI. Bourbon then says we will soon find out soon.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />

Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />

Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth.

[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />

Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />

Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />

Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />

Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />

Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />

<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />

Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />

Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />

==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

<br />
[[Jodie]] is on the phone to [[Natsuko Shibuya]] (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

Episode 781- It is revealed that Vermouth was disguised as Jodie, to ask Camel about Rikumichi Kusuda.Bourbon picks her up outside the hospital. She then reveals to Bourbon that Kusuda shot himself in his car. She then goes on to ask Bourbon who [[Rikumichi Kusuda]] is and why a man without a code name (for the organisation) is important. Bourbon smiles and hints to Vermouth that Akai died the same way(ie. Akai is still alive, and Kusuda's body was used), Vemrouth however does not believe him as Akai's body was checked and verified by fingerprint scans from the police and FBI. Bourbon then says we will soon find out soon.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />
<br />
==The Mysterious Passenger (Manga: [[Volume_29#Bus_Hijacking_Case|287-289]], Anime: [[The Mysterious Passenger|230-231]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_protecting_Conan.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide protects Conan on the hijacked bus]]<br />
At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />
<br />
==Sato’s marriage arrangement (Manga: [[Volume_32#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|328]]-[[Volume_33#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ==<br />
Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned. This is later revealed to be Vermouth who needed to get information on Araide’s case so she could testify at the trial properly. She also intended to lure the FBI out by getting them watch Mouri Kogoro’s office.<br />
<br />
==Time To Pick The Apple (Manga: [[Volume_34#Escalator_Message_Case|340]], Anime: [[The Secret Rushed Omission|272]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />
<br />
==The Hint That Was Against (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|341]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277]])==<br />
Conan tells Agasa the case files stolen by Vermouth earlier were also returned. Conan is unsure of why.<br />
<br />
==Who are you? (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|278]])==<br />
Jodie has pictures of the pictures that Vermouth had with the exception of Shiho’s. The office had been broken into by FBI prior to this point in time.<br />
<br />
==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />
<br />
==White Snow, Black Shadow (Manga: [[Volume_37#Footsteps_of_Darkness|380]], Anime: [[Contact with the Black Organization|309]])==<br />
[[Image:SharonItakura.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sharon and Itakura arguing]]<br />
One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />
<br />
==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />
<br />
==Hidden Bathroom Secret (Manga: [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|423]]-[[Volume_42#Bathroom_Murder_Case|425]], Anime: [[Hidden Bathroom Secret|340-341]])==<br />
Vermouth is listening in on bugs that have been planted in the house to Conan and Agasa’s discussion about an architect friend of Professor Miyano’s. Conan knows about the bugs, but doesn’t remove them because he isn’t sure of the consequences might be. Later, Vermouth contacts Calvados and tells him to finish off someone.<br />
<br />
==Head to Head with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_42#Halloween_Party_Case|429-434]], Anime: [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|345]])==<br />
===The Fullmoon Night and Black Banquet Trap ([[Volume_42#File_429_-_The_Full_Moon_and_the_Trap_at_the_Banquet|429]])===<br />
Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />

[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />
<br />
==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

<br />
[[Jodie]] is on the phone to [[Natsuko Shibuya]] (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

Episode 781- It is revealed that Vermouth was disguised as Jodie, to ask Camel about Rikumichi Kusuda.Bourbon picks her up outside the hospital. She then reveals to Bourbon that Kusuda shot himself in his car. She then goes on to ask Bourbon who [[Rikumichi Kusuda]] is and why a man without a code name (for the organisation) is important. Bourbon smiles and hints to Vermouth that Akai died the same way(ie. Akai is still alive, and Kusuda's body was used), Vemrouth however does not believe him as Akai's body was checked and verified by fingerprint scans from the police and FBI. Bourbon then says we will soon find out soon.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />
<br />
==The Mysterious Passenger (Manga: [[Volume_29#Bus_Hijacking_Case|287-289]], Anime: [[The Mysterious Passenger|230-231]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_protecting_Conan.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide protects Conan on the hijacked bus]]<br />
At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />
<br />
==Sato’s marriage arrangement (Manga: [[Volume_32#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|328]]-[[Volume_33#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ==<br />
Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned. This is later revealed to be Vermouth who needed to get information on Araide’s case so she could testify at the trial properly. She also intended to lure the FBI out by getting them watch Mouri Kogoro’s office.<br />

This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />

==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />

[[Image:SharonItakura.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sharon and Itakura arguing]]<br />
One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />
<br />
==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />
<br />
==Hidden Bathroom Secret (Manga: [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|423]]-[[Volume_42#Bathroom_Murder_Case|425]], Anime: [[Hidden Bathroom Secret|340-341]])==<br />
Vermouth is listening in on bugs that have been planted in the house to Conan and Agasa’s discussion about an architect friend of Professor Miyano’s. Conan knows about the bugs, but doesn’t remove them because he isn’t sure of the consequences might be. Later, Vermouth contacts Calvados and tells him to finish off someone.<br />
<br />
==Head to Head with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_42#Halloween_Party_Case|429-434]], Anime: [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|345]])==<br />
===The Fullmoon Night and Black Banquet Trap ([[Volume_42#File_429_-_The_Full_Moon_and_the_Trap_at_the_Banquet|429]])===<br />
Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />
<br />
==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

<br />
[[Jodie]] is on the phone to [[Natsuko Shibuya]] (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

Episode 781- It is revealed that Vermouth was disguised as Jodie, to ask Camel about Rikumichi Kusuda.Bourbon picks her up outside the hospital. She then reveals to Bourbon that Kusuda shot himself in his car. She then goes on to ask Bourbon who [[Rikumichi Kusuda]] is and why a man without a code name (for the organisation) is important. Bourbon smiles and hints to Vermouth that Akai died the same way(ie. Akai is still alive, and Kusuda's body was used), Vemrouth however does not believe him as Akai's body was checked and verified by fingerprint scans from the police and FBI. Bourbon then says we will soon find out soon.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />
<br />
==The Mysterious Passenger (Manga: [[Volume_29#Bus_Hijacking_Case|287-289]], Anime: [[The Mysterious Passenger|230-231]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_protecting_Conan.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide protects Conan on the hijacked bus]]<br />
At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />
<br />
==Sato’s marriage arrangement (Manga: [[Volume_32#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|328]]-[[Volume_33#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ==<br />
Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned. This is later revealed to be Vermouth who needed to get information on Araide’s case so she could testify at the trial properly. She also intended to lure the FBI out by getting them watch Mouri Kogoro’s office.<br />
<br />
==Time To Pick The Apple (Manga: [[Volume_34#Escalator_Message_Case|340]], Anime: [[The Secret Rushed Omission|272]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />
<br />
==The Hint That Was Against (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|341]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277]])==<br />
Conan tells Agasa the case files stolen by Vermouth earlier were also returned. Conan is unsure of why.<br />
<br />
==Who are you? (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|278]])==<br />
Jodie has pictures of the pictures that Vermouth had with the exception of Shiho’s. The office had been broken into by FBI prior to this point in time.<br />
<br />
==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />
<br />
==White Snow, Black Shadow (Manga: [[Volume_37#Footsteps_of_Darkness|380]], Anime: [[Contact with the Black Organization|309]])==<br />
[[Image:SharonItakura.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sharon and Itakura arguing]]<br />
One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />
<br />
==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />
<br />
==Hidden Bathroom Secret (Manga: [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|423]]-[[Volume_42#Bathroom_Murder_Case|425]], Anime: [[Hidden Bathroom Secret|340-341]])==<br />
Vermouth is listening in on bugs that have been planted in the house to Conan and Agasa’s discussion about an architect friend of Professor Miyano’s. Conan knows about the bugs, but doesn’t remove them because he isn’t sure of the consequences might be. Later, Vermouth contacts Calvados and tells him to finish off someone.<br />
<br />
==Head to Head with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_42#Halloween_Party_Case|429-434]], Anime: [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|345]])==<br />
===The Fullmoon Night and Black Banquet Trap ([[Volume_42#File_429_-_The_Full_Moon_and_the_Trap_at_the_Banquet|429]])===<br />
Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

==Teitan High School's Ghost Story (Manga: [[Volume_44#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|457]]-[[Volume_45#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|459]], Anime: [[Teitan High School's Ghost Story|361-362]])== <br />
The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />
<br />
==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

<br />
[[Jodie]] is on the phone to [[Natsuko Shibuya]] (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

Episode 781- It is revealed that Vermouth was disguised as Jodie, to ask Camel about Rikumichi Kusuda.Bourbon picks her up outside the hospital. She then reveals to Bourbon that Kusuda shot himself in his car. She then goes on to ask Bourbon who [[Rikumichi Kusuda]] is and why a man without a code name (for the organisation) is important. Bourbon smiles and hints to Vermouth that Akai died the same way(ie. Akai is still alive, and Kusuda's body was used), Vemrouth however does not believe him as Akai's body was checked and verified by fingerprint scans from the police and FBI. Bourbon then says we will soon find out soon.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />
<br />
==The Mysterious Passenger (Manga: [[Volume_29#Bus_Hijacking_Case|287-289]], Anime: [[The Mysterious Passenger|230-231]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_protecting_Conan.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide protects Conan on the hijacked bus]]<br />
At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />
<br />
==Sato’s marriage arrangement (Manga: [[Volume_32#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|328]]-[[Volume_33#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ==<br />
Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned. This is later revealed to be Vermouth who needed to get information on Araide’s case so she could testify at the trial properly. She also intended to lure the FBI out by getting them watch Mouri Kogoro’s office.<br />
<br />
==Time To Pick The Apple (Manga: [[Volume_34#Escalator_Message_Case|340]], Anime: [[The Secret Rushed Omission|272]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />
<br />
==The Hint That Was Against (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|341]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277]])==<br />
Conan tells Agasa the case files stolen by Vermouth earlier were also returned. Conan is unsure of why.<br />
<br />
==Who are you? (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|278]])==<br />
Jodie has pictures of the pictures that Vermouth had with the exception of Shiho’s. The office had been broken into by FBI prior to this point in time.<br />
<br />
==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />

[[Image:SharonItakura.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sharon and Itakura arguing]]<br />
One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />
<br />
==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />
<br />
==Hidden Bathroom Secret (Manga: [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|423]]-[[Volume_42#Bathroom_Murder_Case|425]], Anime: [[Hidden Bathroom Secret|340-341]])==<br />
Vermouth is listening in on bugs that have been planted in the house to Conan and Agasa’s discussion about an architect friend of Professor Miyano’s. Conan knows about the bugs, but doesn’t remove them because he isn’t sure of the consequences might be. Later, Vermouth contacts Calvados and tells him to finish off someone.<br />

===The Fullmoon Night and Black Banquet Trap ([[Volume_42#File_429_-_The_Full_Moon_and_the_Trap_at_the_Banquet|429]])===<br />
Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

==Teitan High School's Ghost Story (Manga: [[Volume_44#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|457]]-[[Volume_45#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|459]], Anime: [[Teitan High School's Ghost Story|361-362]])== <br />
The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />
<br />
==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

[[Jodie]] is on the phone to [[Natsuko Shibuya]] (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

Episode 781- It is revealed that Vermouth was disguised as Jodie, to ask Camel about Rikumichi Kusuda.Bourbon picks her up outside the hospital. She then reveals to Bourbon that Kusuda shot himself in his car. She then goes on to ask Bourbon who [[Rikumichi Kusuda]] is and why a man without a code name (for the organisation) is important. Bourbon smiles and hints to Vermouth that Akai died the same way(ie. Akai is still alive, and Kusuda's body was used), Vemrouth however does not believe him as Akai's body was checked and verified by fingerprint scans from the police and FBI. Bourbon then says we will soon find out soon.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />
<br />
==The Mysterious Passenger (Manga: [[Volume_29#Bus_Hijacking_Case|287-289]], Anime: [[The Mysterious Passenger|230-231]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_protecting_Conan.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide protects Conan on the hijacked bus]]<br />
At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />
<br />
==Sato’s marriage arrangement (Manga: [[Volume_32#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|328]]-[[Volume_33#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ==<br />
Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned. This is later revealed to be Vermouth who needed to get information on Araide’s case so she could testify at the trial properly. She also intended to lure the FBI out by getting them watch Mouri Kogoro’s office.<br />
<br />
==Time To Pick The Apple (Manga: [[Volume_34#Escalator_Message_Case|340]], Anime: [[The Secret Rushed Omission|272]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />
<br />
==The Hint That Was Against (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|341]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277]])==<br />
Conan tells Agasa the case files stolen by Vermouth earlier were also returned. Conan is unsure of why.<br />
<br />
==Who are you? (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|278]])==<br />
Jodie has pictures of the pictures that Vermouth had with the exception of Shiho’s. The office had been broken into by FBI prior to this point in time.<br />
<br />
==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />
<br />
==White Snow, Black Shadow (Manga: [[Volume_37#Footsteps_of_Darkness|380]], Anime: [[Contact with the Black Organization|309]])==<br />
[[Image:SharonItakura.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sharon and Itakura arguing]]<br />
One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />
<br />
==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />
<br />
==Hidden Bathroom Secret (Manga: [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|423]]-[[Volume_42#Bathroom_Murder_Case|425]], Anime: [[Hidden Bathroom Secret|340-341]])==<br />
Vermouth is listening in on bugs that have been planted in the house to Conan and Agasa’s discussion about an architect friend of Professor Miyano’s. Conan knows about the bugs, but doesn’t remove them because he isn’t sure of the consequences might be. Later, Vermouth contacts Calvados and tells him to finish off someone.<br />
<br />
==Head to Head with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_42#Halloween_Party_Case|429-434]], Anime: [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|345]])==<br />
===The Fullmoon Night and Black Banquet Trap ([[Volume_42#File_429_-_The_Full_Moon_and_the_Trap_at_the_Banquet|429]])===<br />
Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />
<br />
==Teitan High School's Ghost Story (Manga: [[Volume_44#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|457]]-[[Volume_45#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|459]], Anime: [[Teitan High School's Ghost Story|361-362]])== <br />
The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />
<br />
==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />

==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

<br />
[[Jodie]] is on the phone to [[Natsuko Shibuya]] (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

Episode 781- It is revealed that Vermouth was disguised as Jodie, to ask Camel about Rikumichi Kusuda.Bourbon picks her up outside the hospital. She then reveals to Bourbon that Kusuda shot himself in his car. She then goes on to ask Bourbon who [[Rikumichi Kusuda]] is and why a man without a code name (for the organisation) is important. Bourbon smiles and hints to Vermouth that Akai died the same way(ie. Akai is still alive, and Kusuda's body was used), Vemrouth however does not believe him as Akai's body was checked and verified by fingerprint scans from the police and FBI. Bourbon then says we will soon find out soon.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />
<br />
==The Mysterious Passenger (Manga: [[Volume_29#Bus_Hijacking_Case|287-289]], Anime: [[The Mysterious Passenger|230-231]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_protecting_Conan.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide protects Conan on the hijacked bus]]<br />
At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />
<br />
==Sato’s marriage arrangement (Manga: [[Volume_32#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|328]]-[[Volume_33#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ==<br />
Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned. This is later revealed to be Vermouth who needed to get information on Araide’s case so she could testify at the trial properly. She also intended to lure the FBI out by getting them watch Mouri Kogoro’s office.<br />
<br />
==Time To Pick The Apple (Manga: [[Volume_34#Escalator_Message_Case|340]], Anime: [[The Secret Rushed Omission|272]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />
<br />
==The Hint That Was Against (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|341]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277]])==<br />
Conan tells Agasa the case files stolen by Vermouth earlier were also returned. Conan is unsure of why.<br />
<br />
==Who are you? (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|278]])==<br />
Jodie has pictures of the pictures that Vermouth had with the exception of Shiho’s. The office had been broken into by FBI prior to this point in time.<br />
<br />
==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />
<br />
==White Snow, Black Shadow (Manga: [[Volume_37#Footsteps_of_Darkness|380]], Anime: [[Contact with the Black Organization|309]])==<br />
[[Image:SharonItakura.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sharon and Itakura arguing]]<br />
One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />
<br />
==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />
<br />
==Hidden Bathroom Secret (Manga: [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|423]]-[[Volume_42#Bathroom_Murder_Case|425]], Anime: [[Hidden Bathroom Secret|340-341]])==<br />
Vermouth is listening in on bugs that have been planted in the house to Conan and Agasa’s discussion about an architect friend of Professor Miyano’s. Conan knows about the bugs, but doesn’t remove them because he isn’t sure of the consequences might be. Later, Vermouth contacts Calvados and tells him to finish off someone.<br />
<br />
==Head to Head with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_42#Halloween_Party_Case|429-434]], Anime: [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|345]])==<br />
===The Fullmoon Night and Black Banquet Trap ([[Volume_42#File_429_-_The_Full_Moon_and_the_Trap_at_the_Banquet|429]])===<br />
Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

==Teitan High School's Ghost Story (Manga: [[Volume_44#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|457]]-[[Volume_45#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|459]], Anime: [[Teitan High School's Ghost Story|361-362]])== <br />
The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />
<br />
==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

<br />
[[Jodie]] is on the phone to [[Natsuko Shibuya]] (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

Episode 781- It is revealed that Vermouth was disguised as Jodie, to ask Camel about Rikumichi Kusuda.Bourbon picks her up outside the hospital. She then reveals to Bourbon that Kusuda shot himself in his car. She then goes on to ask Bourbon who Kusuda Rikumichi is and why a man without a code name (for the organisation) is important. Bourbon smiles and hints to Vermouth that Akai died the same way(ie. Akai is still alive, and Kusuda's body was used), Vemrouth however does not believe him as Akai's body was checked and verified by fingerprint scans from the police and FBI. Bourbon then says we will soon find out soon.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />

Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />

[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />

One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket.

Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary?

Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />

==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />

One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />

Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />

<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />

<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />

==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

<br />
[[Jodie]] is on the phone to [[Natsuko Shibuya]] (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

Episode 781- It is revealed that Vermouth was disguised as Jodie, to ask Camel about Rikumichi Kusuda.Bourbon picks her up outside the hospital. She then reveals to Bourbon that Kusuda shot himself in his car. She then goes on to ask Bourbon who Kusuda Rikumichi is and why a man without a code name (for the organisation) is important. Bourbon smiles and hints to Vemrouth that Akai died the same way, Vemrouth however does not believe him as Akai's body was checked and verified by fingerprint scans from the police and FBI. Bourbon then says we will soon find out.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />
<br />
==The Mysterious Passenger (Manga: [[Volume_29#Bus_Hijacking_Case|287-289]], Anime: [[The Mysterious Passenger|230-231]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_protecting_Conan.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide protects Conan on the hijacked bus]]<br />
At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />
<br />
==Sato’s marriage arrangement (Manga: [[Volume_32#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|328]]-[[Volume_33#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ==<br />
Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned. This is later revealed to be Vermouth who needed to get information on Araide’s case so she could testify at the trial properly. She also intended to lure the FBI out by getting them watch Mouri Kogoro’s office.<br />
<br />
==Time To Pick The Apple (Manga: [[Volume_34#Escalator_Message_Case|340]], Anime: [[The Secret Rushed Omission|272]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />
<br />
==The Hint That Was Against (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|341]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277]])==<br />
Conan tells Agasa the case files stolen by Vermouth earlier were also returned. Conan is unsure of why.<br />
<br />
==Who are you? (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|278]])==<br />
Jodie has pictures of the pictures that Vermouth had with the exception of Shiho’s. The office had been broken into by FBI prior to this point in time.<br />
<br />
==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />
<br />
==White Snow, Black Shadow (Manga: [[Volume_37#Footsteps_of_Darkness|380]], Anime: [[Contact with the Black Organization|309]])==<br />
[[Image:SharonItakura.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sharon and Itakura arguing]]<br />
One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />
<br />
==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />
<br />
==Hidden Bathroom Secret (Manga: [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|423]]-[[Volume_42#Bathroom_Murder_Case|425]], Anime: [[Hidden Bathroom Secret|340-341]])==<br />
Vermouth is listening in on bugs that have been planted in the house to Conan and Agasa’s discussion about an architect friend of Professor Miyano’s. Conan knows about the bugs, but doesn’t remove them because he isn’t sure of the consequences might be. Later, Vermouth contacts Calvados and tells him to finish off someone.<br />
<br />
==Head to Head with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_42#Halloween_Party_Case|429-434]], Anime: [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|345]])==<br />
===The Fullmoon Night and Black Banquet Trap ([[Volume_42#File_429_-_The_Full_Moon_and_the_Trap_at_the_Banquet|429]])===<br />
Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />
<br />
==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

<br />
[[Jodie]] is on the phone to [[Natsuko Shibuya]] (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

Episode 781- It is revealed that Vermouth was disguised as Jodie, to ask Camel about Rikumichi Kusuda.Bourbon picks her up outside the hospital. She then reveals to Bourbon that Kusuda shot himself in his car. She then goes on to ask Bourbon who Kusuda Rikumichi is and why a man without a code name (for the organisation) is important. Bourbon smiles and hints to Vemrouth that Akai died the same way, Vemrouth however does not believe him as Akai's body was checked and verified by fingerprint scans from the police and FBI. Bourbon then says we will soon find out.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />
<br />
==The Mysterious Passenger (Manga: [[Volume_29#Bus_Hijacking_Case|287-289]], Anime: [[The Mysterious Passenger|230-231]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_protecting_Conan.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide protects Conan on the hijacked bus]]<br />
At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />
<br />
==Sato’s marriage arrangement (Manga: [[Volume_32#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|328]]-[[Volume_33#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ==<br />
Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned. This is later revealed to be Vermouth who needed to get information on Araide’s case so she could testify at the trial properly. She also intended to lure the FBI out by getting them watch Mouri Kogoro’s office.<br />
<br />
==Time To Pick The Apple (Manga: [[Volume_34#Escalator_Message_Case|340]], Anime: [[The Secret Rushed Omission|272]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />
<br />
==The Hint That Was Against (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|341]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277]])==<br />
Conan tells Agasa the case files stolen by Vermouth earlier were also returned. Conan is unsure of why.<br />
<br />
==Who are you? (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|278]])==<br />
Jodie has pictures of the pictures that Vermouth had with the exception of Shiho’s. The office had been broken into by FBI prior to this point in time.<br />
<br />
==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />

[[Image:SharonItakura.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sharon and Itakura arguing]]<br />
One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />
<br />
==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />

Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />
<br />
==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

[[Jodie]] is on the phone to [[Natsuko Shibuya]] (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />
<br />
==The Mysterious Passenger (Manga: [[Volume_29#Bus_Hijacking_Case|287-289]], Anime: [[The Mysterious Passenger|230-231]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_protecting_Conan.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide protects Conan on the hijacked bus]]<br />
At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />
<br />
==Sato’s marriage arrangement (Manga: [[Volume_32#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|328]]-[[Volume_33#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ==<br />
Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned. This is later revealed to be Vermouth who needed to get information on Araide’s case so she could testify at the trial properly. She also intended to lure the FBI out by getting them watch Mouri Kogoro’s office.<br />
<br />
==Time To Pick The Apple (Manga: [[Volume_34#Escalator_Message_Case|340]], Anime: [[The Secret Rushed Omission|272]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />
<br />
==The Hint That Was Against (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|341]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277]])==<br />
Conan tells Agasa the case files stolen by Vermouth earlier were also returned. Conan is unsure of why.<br />
<br />
==Who are you? (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|278]])==<br />
Jodie has pictures of the pictures that Vermouth had with the exception of Shiho’s. The office had been broken into by FBI prior to this point in time.<br />
<br />
==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />
<br />
==White Snow, Black Shadow (Manga: [[Volume_37#Footsteps_of_Darkness|380]], Anime: [[Contact with the Black Organization|309]])==<br />
[[Image:SharonItakura.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sharon and Itakura arguing]]<br />
One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />
<br />
==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />
<br />
==Hidden Bathroom Secret (Manga: [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|423]]-[[Volume_42#Bathroom_Murder_Case|425]], Anime: [[Hidden Bathroom Secret|340-341]])==<br />
Vermouth is listening in on bugs that have been planted in the house to Conan and Agasa’s discussion about an architect friend of Professor Miyano’s. Conan knows about the bugs, but doesn’t remove them because he isn’t sure of the consequences might be. Later, Vermouth contacts Calvados and tells him to finish off someone.<br />
<br />
==Head to Head with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_42#Halloween_Party_Case|429-434]], Anime: [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|345]])==<br />
===The Fullmoon Night and Black Banquet Trap ([[Volume_42#File_429_-_The_Full_Moon_and_the_Trap_at_the_Banquet|429]])===<br />
Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />
<br />
==Teitan High School's Ghost Story (Manga: [[Volume_44#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|457]]-[[Volume_45#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|459]], Anime: [[Teitan High School's Ghost Story|361-362]])== <br />
The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />
<br />
==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />

Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

<br />
[[Jodie]] is on the phone to [[Shibuya Natsuko]] (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />
<br />
==The Mysterious Passenger (Manga: [[Volume_29#Bus_Hijacking_Case|287-289]], Anime: [[The Mysterious Passenger|230-231]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_protecting_Conan.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide protects Conan on the hijacked bus]]<br />
At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />
<br />
==Sato’s marriage arrangement (Manga: [[Volume_32#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|328]]-[[Volume_33#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ==<br />
Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned. This is later revealed to be Vermouth who needed to get information on Araide’s case so she could testify at the trial properly. She also intended to lure the FBI out by getting them watch Mouri Kogoro’s office.<br />
<br />
==Time To Pick The Apple (Manga: [[Volume_34#Escalator_Message_Case|340]], Anime: [[The Secret Rushed Omission|272]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />
<br />
==The Hint That Was Against (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|341]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277]])==<br />
Conan tells Agasa the case files stolen by Vermouth earlier were also returned. Conan is unsure of why.<br />
<br />
==Who are you? (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|278]])==<br />
Jodie has pictures of the pictures that Vermouth had with the exception of Shiho’s. The office had been broken into by FBI prior to this point in time.<br />
<br />
==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />
<br />
==White Snow, Black Shadow (Manga: [[Volume_37#Footsteps_of_Darkness|380]], Anime: [[Contact with the Black Organization|309]])==<br />
[[Image:SharonItakura.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sharon and Itakura arguing]]<br />
One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />
<br />
==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />
<br />
==Hidden Bathroom Secret (Manga: [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|423]]-[[Volume_42#Bathroom_Murder_Case|425]], Anime: [[Hidden Bathroom Secret|340-341]])==<br />
Vermouth is listening in on bugs that have been planted in the house to Conan and Agasa’s discussion about an architect friend of Professor Miyano’s. Conan knows about the bugs, but doesn’t remove them because he isn’t sure of the consequences might be. Later, Vermouth contacts Calvados and tells him to finish off someone.<br />
<br />
==Head to Head with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_42#Halloween_Party_Case|429-434]], Anime: [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|345]])==<br />
===The Fullmoon Night and Black Banquet Trap ([[Volume_42#File_429_-_The_Full_Moon_and_the_Trap_at_the_Banquet|429]])===<br />
Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

==Teitan High School's Ghost Story (Manga: [[Volume_44#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|457]]-[[Volume_45#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|459]], Anime: [[Teitan High School's Ghost Story|361-362]])== <br />
The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />
<br />
==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

Jodie is on the phone to Shibuya Natsuko (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />

At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />

Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />

[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />

==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary?

Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />

One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />
<br />
==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />

==Hidden Bathroom Secret (Manga: [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|423]]-[[Volume_42#Bathroom_Murder_Case|425]], Anime: [[Hidden Bathroom Secret|340-341]])==<br />
Vermouth is listening in on bugs that have been planted in the house to Conan and Agasa’s discussion about an architect friend of Professor Miyano’s. Conan knows about the bugs, but doesn’t remove them because he isn’t sure of the consequences might be. Later, Vermouth contacts Calvados and tells him to finish off someone.<br />

Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />

==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

<br />
<br />
Jodie is on the phone to Shibuya Natsuko (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />
<br />
==The Mysterious Passenger (Manga: [[Volume_29#Bus_Hijacking_Case|287-289]], Anime: [[The Mysterious Passenger|230-231]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_protecting_Conan.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide protects Conan on the hijacked bus]]<br />
At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />
<br />
==Sato’s marriage arrangement (Manga: [[Volume_32#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|328]]-[[Volume_33#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ==<br />
Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned. This is later revealed to be Vermouth who needed to get information on Araide’s case so she could testify at the trial properly. She also intended to lure the FBI out by getting them watch Mouri Kogoro’s office.<br />
<br />
==Time To Pick The Apple (Manga: [[Volume_34#Escalator_Message_Case|340]], Anime: [[The Secret Rushed Omission|272]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />
<br />
==The Hint That Was Against (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|341]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277]])==<br />
Conan tells Agasa the case files stolen by Vermouth earlier were also returned. Conan is unsure of why.<br />
<br />
==Who are you? (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|278]])==<br />
Jodie has pictures of the pictures that Vermouth had with the exception of Shiho’s. The office had been broken into by FBI prior to this point in time.<br />
<br />
==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />
<br />
==White Snow, Black Shadow (Manga: [[Volume_37#Footsteps_of_Darkness|380]], Anime: [[Contact with the Black Organization|309]])==<br />
[[Image:SharonItakura.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sharon and Itakura arguing]]<br />
One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />
<br />
==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />
<br />
==Hidden Bathroom Secret (Manga: [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|423]]-[[Volume_42#Bathroom_Murder_Case|425]], Anime: [[Hidden Bathroom Secret|340-341]])==<br />
Vermouth is listening in on bugs that have been planted in the house to Conan and Agasa’s discussion about an architect friend of Professor Miyano’s. Conan knows about the bugs, but doesn’t remove them because he isn’t sure of the consequences might be. Later, Vermouth contacts Calvados and tells him to finish off someone.<br />
<br />
==Head to Head with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_42#Halloween_Party_Case|429-434]], Anime: [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|345]])==<br />
===The Fullmoon Night and Black Banquet Trap ([[Volume_42#File_429_-_The_Full_Moon_and_the_Trap_at_the_Banquet|429]])===<br />
Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />

Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />
<br />
==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

<br />
Jodie is on the phone to Shibuya Natsuko (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />
<br />
==The Mysterious Passenger (Manga: [[Volume_29#Bus_Hijacking_Case|287-289]], Anime: [[The Mysterious Passenger|230-231]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_protecting_Conan.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide protects Conan on the hijacked bus]]<br />
At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />
<br />
==Sato’s marriage arrangement (Manga: [[Volume_32#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|328]]-[[Volume_33#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ==<br />
Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned. This is later revealed to be Vermouth who needed to get information on Araide’s case so she could testify at the trial properly. She also intended to lure the FBI out by getting them watch Mouri Kogoro’s office.<br />
<br />
==Time To Pick The Apple (Manga: [[Volume_34#Escalator_Message_Case|340]], Anime: [[The Secret Rushed Omission|272]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />
<br />
==The Hint That Was Against (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|341]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277]])==<br />
Conan tells Agasa the case files stolen by Vermouth earlier were also returned. Conan is unsure of why.<br />
<br />
==Who are you? (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|278]])==<br />
Jodie has pictures of the pictures that Vermouth had with the exception of Shiho’s. The office had been broken into by FBI prior to this point in time.<br />
<br />
==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />

[[Image:SharonItakura.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sharon and Itakura arguing]]<br />
One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />

==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />
<br />
==Hidden Bathroom Secret (Manga: [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|423]]-[[Volume_42#Bathroom_Murder_Case|425]], Anime: [[Hidden Bathroom Secret|340-341]])==<br />
Vermouth is listening in on bugs that have been planted in the house to Conan and Agasa’s discussion about an architect friend of Professor Miyano’s. Conan knows about the bugs, but doesn’t remove them because he isn’t sure of the consequences might be. Later, Vermouth contacts Calvados and tells him to finish off someone.<br />

==Head to Head with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_42#Halloween_Party_Case|429-434]], Anime: [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|345]])==<br />
===The Fullmoon Night and Black Banquet Trap ([[Volume_42#File_429_-_The_Full_Moon_and_the_Trap_at_the_Banquet|429]])===<br />
Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

==Teitan High School's Ghost Story (Manga: [[Volume_44#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|457]]-[[Volume_45#Classmate.27s_Ghost_Case|459]], Anime: [[Teitan High School's Ghost Story|361-362]])== <br />
The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />
<br />
==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

Jodie is on the phone to Shibuya Natsuko (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />

In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth.

Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned.

[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />

==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />

One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />
<br />
==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />

Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />
<br />
==Hidden Bathroom Secret (Manga: [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|423]]-[[Volume_42#Bathroom_Murder_Case|425]], Anime: [[Hidden Bathroom Secret|340-341]])==<br />
Vermouth is listening in on bugs that have been planted in the house to Conan and Agasa’s discussion about an architect friend of Professor Miyano’s. Conan knows about the bugs, but doesn’t remove them because he isn’t sure of the consequences might be. Later, Vermouth contacts Calvados and tells him to finish off someone.<br />

Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />
<br />
===Rotten Apple ([[Volume_42#File_434_-_Rotten_Apple|434]])===<br />
[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />
<br />
==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />
<br />
==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />
<br />
==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />

Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

[[File:706-11 Bathtub Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth asks Amuro why he is still investigating at Mouri Detective Agency]]<br />
After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

<br />
Jodie is on the phone to Shibuya Natsuko (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Vermouth]], a [[Black Organization]] member who specializes in disguise and reconnaissance, flew from America to Japan some time after [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]'s escape from the Organization. Her objective was to track down and eliminate the 'traitor', and for that purpose she assumed the identity of doctor [[Tomoaki Araide]]. [[FBI]] agents [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], and [[James Black]] followed her to Japan on a secret mission to arrest her and learn more about the Black Organization in order to destroy it. Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Haibara get caught up in Vermouth and the [[FBI]]'s silent battle as Conan attempts to uncover the identities, motives, and allegiances of the strange people who have appeared around him.<br />
<br />
==Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_24#Hotel_Party_Murder_Case|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])==<br />
[[File:Chris Vineyard first appearence.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Vermouth]]'s first appearance as Chris Vineyard at the mourning party.]]<br />
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] go to intercept an assassination by [[Pisco]]. They fail to stop the assassination, but Conan discovers that Pisco must be one of the suspects with a purple handkerchief. One of the suspects is [[Vermouth|Chris Vineyard]], 29 year old American actress. [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] holds all the participants with a purple handkerchief for questioning, including Chris Vineyard. To help Pisco out, Chris gives Pisco her purple handkerchief. When Pisco returns to the room where Haibara is and confronts Conan, Conan suspects Pisco had help from someone else at the party, although he doesn’t know which person it is. <br />
<br />
At the end of this case, [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] pick up Chris Vineyard, and reveal that her codename is Vermouth. She flew over from America to help Pisco. Rather than fly back, Vermouth says she wants to stay in Japan for a while because she had “something unsettling in her mind”; probably Conan and Haibara whom she recognized as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Shiho Miyano|Shiho]].<br />
<br />
Vermouth takes the place of [[Tomoaki Araide]], the nurse at [[Setting#Educational_institutions|Teitan elementary and high school]] sometime after this. Soon afterwards, the FBI who had followed her from America raid Araide’s office and see the pictures of Conan, Ran, and Sherry that Vermouth had tacked to her dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures">In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because she became a teacher after she tracked Araide there.</ref><br />
<br />
The exact time Vermouth replaced Araide was left unclear. At the earliest, Ran reported that Araide had already accepted the position of play director at the beginning of "Mistaken Detectives".<ref>Manga Volume 25, File 9, Page 4: "Mistaken Detectives"; One of the hints that Vermouth was Dr. Araide was Araide switching from the basketball club to the drama club.</ref> It is also plausible Vermouth disguised as Araide prior to Desperate Revival. Jodie's reference pictures hidden behind her mirror include a photograph of Dr. Araide taken at the school play indicating that Araide was under investigation then.<ref>Jodie's reference picture of Dr. Araide shows people in the school play costumes in the background, and there is also a picture of Shinichi in costume as well.</ref> There are also copies of Vermouth's photographs, meaning Dr. Araide's office had been raided by the FBI and thus Vermouth was in disguise at the time. The mixed layering of the photos suggests they were acquired at around the same time. At the very latest, Vermouth was already in disguise when Jodie's introduction occured because Jodie had already raided Araide's office and seen the pictures tacked to Vermouth's dartboard.<ref name="JodieandPictures"/><br />
<br />
==Mistaken Detectives (Manga: [[Volume_25#Dangerous_Cave_Case|251]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188]])==<br />
It is revealed that Araide will substitute for the school drama’s Black Knight role who will kiss [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br />
<br />
==The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume_26#School_Play_Case|255–257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|190-191]])==<br />
In Desperate Revival, Shinichi takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], participates in a school play as the Black Knight, and solves a murder case that occurs during the performance. Dr. Araide was supposed to be the knight, but traded places with Shinichi who already knew the script. Dr. Araide sees Shinichi in his teenager grown form. <!--Araide may have already seen Heiji pretending to be Shinichi before and maybe also Haibara dressed as Conan. Vermouth knows that Shinichi is still alive although she might wonder whether Conan and he could not be the same person (due to Ai dressing up). Since she is a master of disguise, she probably knows it was a charade.--><br />
<br />
==The Battle Game Trap (Manga: [[Volume_27#Arcade_Murder_Case|270-272]], Anime: [[The Battle Game Trap|226-227]])==<br />
[[Jodie Starling]], an FBI agent who is hunting Vermouth, makes her first appearance during a murder case at an arcade. At the end of the case, she tells a fellow agent that she found “rotten apple”, the FBI’s codename for Vermouth. She also calls Conan “Cool Guy”, the caption Vermouth wrote on Conan’s pictures meaning the FBI has already raided Araide’s office and seen them.<br />
<br />
==The Mysterious Passenger (Manga: [[Volume_29#Bus_Hijacking_Case|287-289]], Anime: [[The Mysterious Passenger|230-231]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_protecting_Conan.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide protects Conan on the hijacked bus]]<br />
At a bar after completing an assassination, Gin and Vodka are approached by Vermouth in a barman's disguise. Vodka is fooled, but Gin knows her instantly and is unamused. He asks if she has found what she was looking for in Japan yet, but Vermouth plays coy about her goal and flirts with Gin instead. <br />
<br />
Conan, Haibara, Dr. Araide (Vermouth), Jodie, and [[Shuichi Akai]] are on a bus which gets hijacked. Haibara reveals she sensed Vermouth at the party in Reunion with the Black Organization, but doesn’t tell Conan Vermouth’s codename. Haibara senses Vermouth’s presence on the bus. Dr. Araide jumps into protect Conan when one of the hijackers threatens to kill him. Vermouth steals the records of [[Kogoro Mouri]]'s cases from the police department after the bus jack.<br />
<br />
==Sato’s marriage arrangement (Manga: [[Volume_32#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|328]]-[[Volume_33#Sato.27s_Omiai_Case|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ==<br />
Dr. Araide comes to a Japanese restaurant for an unknown reason. Akai is there too to investigate Vermouth. Conan, not suspecting Dr. Araide at this point, ruffles Araide’s hair, takes his glasses off, and uses his voice changer so the Araide’s silhouette looks like [[Wataru Takagi]]’s. Vermouth realizes the ploy and cooperates.<br />
<br />
==Clean Scent (Manga: [[Volume_33#Missing_Watch_Case|336]], Anime: [[The Forgotten Memento from the Crime|269]])==<br />
Takagi tells Conan that Kogoro Mouri’s case records were stolen from police headquarters by someone after the bus jack then later returned. This is later revealed to be Vermouth who needed to get information on Araide’s case so she could testify at the trial properly. She also intended to lure the FBI out by getting them watch Mouri Kogoro’s office.<br />
<br />
==Time To Pick The Apple (Manga: [[Volume_34#Escalator_Message_Case|340]], Anime: [[The Secret Rushed Omission|272]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth_dartboard.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth's pictures of Conan, Ran, and Shiho]]<br />
This is the first time the readers see Vermouth’s posterboard, although chronologically this scene occurred prior to this point in time sometime between Reunion with the Black Corps and the Battle Game Trap.<ref>In Jodie's intro case, she calls Conan "Cool Guy" meaning she saw the pictures prior to her intro, and most likely prior to joining Teitan high because became a teacher after she tracked Araide there. She later in V42-9 described the picture of Shiho as pinned to the dartboard with a dart meaning that the office raid came after Vermouth threw the dart at Shiho's picture. Since Vermouth is shown throwing the dart into Shiho's picture in this office scene, it must have occurred before Jodie's intro case. Also it is unlikely Vermouth has thrown more than one dart and then removed it later because there are no other dart-holes.</ref> She writes a somewhat teasing letter to Gin. She has pictures of Shiho with and X drawn though it, Conan with the caption “Cool Guy”, and Ran with the caption “Angel”. She throws a dart at the Shiho picture and strikes the center of the X.<br />
<br />
==The Hint That Was Against (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|341]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277]])==<br />
Conan tells Agasa the case files stolen by Vermouth earlier were also returned. Conan is unsure of why.<br />
<br />
==Who are you? (Manga: [[Volume_34#Flying_Neighbor_Case|343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|278]])==<br />
Jodie has pictures of the pictures that Vermouth had with the exception of Shiho’s. The office had been broken into by FBI prior to this point in time.<br />
<br />
==Golden Apple Case (Manga: [[Volume_34#Golden_Apple_Case|350]]-[[Volume_35#Golden_Apple_Case|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]])==<br />
One year before the current timeline, Shinichi, Ran, and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] visit New York city to see the Broadway production: "Golden Apple" after getting tickets from Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's current persona. Sharon greets Yukiko disguised as police inspector Radish Redwood in order to keep Yukiko from getting a traffic ticket. Sharon talks with Yukiko a little about her troubled past, deaths in the family, Chris Vineyard, and learning disguise from [[Toichi Kuroba]]. Sharon, Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran go backstage to meet with the actresses. Sharon gives Ran a handkerchief after she scrapes her arm knocking one of the actresses out of the way of a falling suit of armor. Sharon leaves after that saying she has something to take care of and she has a bad feeling about that night.<br />
<br />
[[File:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran saves Vermouth]]<br />
After leaving Yukiko, Shinichi, and Ran at the theater, Sharon Vineyard disguises as a wanted silver haired male serial killer to lure out [[Shuichi Akai]] and kill him. Vermouth underestimates Akai and he shoots her in the side. Vermouth escapes, but Akai continues to look for her. Vermouth hides in an empty building; however, she is discovered by Shinichi who went to retrieve the handkerchief Sharon gave to Ran. Ran goes to look for Shinichi after being told by Akai to leave because the serial killer was around. On the external stairwell several floors up, Ran comes face to face with Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer with Shinichi in hot pursuit from above. Vermouth prepares to kill Ran with a silenced handgun, but the railing she is leaning on breaks. Ran instinctively grabs Vermouth's arm to stop her from falling and with Shinichi's help Vermouth launches herself back up onto the stairwell. She demands to know why Shinichi and Ran saved her, and Shinichi answers:<br />
{{quote|Is a reason necessary? I don't know why you would kill someone, but as for helping someone, a logical mind isn't needed, right?|Shinichi explaining to Vermouth disguised as the silver haired serial killer why he saved her|Manga Volume 35, File 4, pg 12}} Ran collapses and Vermouth levels her gun at Shinichi, but Shinichi warns her off as it is unsilenced and she will be caught if she fires. Shinichi carries Ran away, leaving Vermouth to contemplate the conversation.<br />
Vermouth clears the stairwell and building of blood and fingerprints and later the body of the real silver haired man is found when the police arrive. The death was ruled a suicide but later Shinichi hypothesizes Vermouth sacrificed the man to cover her trail. Sharon and Yukiko talk the next day by phone while Sharon clutches her side in the precise place where the serial killer was shot. She asks Yukiko to tell Ran there was an angel for her. After this, Vermouth refers to Ran as "angel" and Shinichi/Conan as "cool guy".<br />
<br />
==The Haunted House Mystery (Manga: [[Volume_35#Haunted_Apartment_Case|355]], Anime: [[The Truth of the Haunted House|274]])==<br />
Ran talks to Shinichi on the phone about the New York case, Sharon’s handkerchief, and the mysterious serial killer. Shinichi reveals he looked into the case and discovered the serial killer’s blood and fingerprints had all been wiped before the police arrived which makes no sense for someone committing suicide. He asked the local police to look into it, but nothing turned up.<br />
<br />
Ran is treated at Araide clinic by “Dr. Araide” after collapsing. Vermouth still needs to give testimony at court on the Araide family murder case which was part of the reason she stole the records of Mouri’s case. Vermouth is having some difficulty keeping in character; one of her patients says Dr. Araide has been acting like a stranger.<ref name=355p6>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 6: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref> Also, Araide claims to have sent his grandmother and housekeeper Hikaru ahead to Aomori<ref name=355p5>Manga [[Volume 35]], File 5 (355), pg 5: "The Haunted House's Mystery 1"</ref>, which is strange because it was established in 235-236 that Araide didn't trust them (especially the maid) to take care of themselves.<br />
<br />
==White Snow, Black Shadow (Manga: [[Volume_37#Footsteps_of_Darkness|380]], Anime: [[Contact with the Black Organization|309]])==<br />
[[Image:SharonItakura.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sharon and Itakura arguing]]<br />
One of Black Organization target Itakura’s diary entries reveals he had been corresponding with Vermouth about a year ago. The woman demanded Itakura complete a program he had stopped developing. Itakura questioned the woman angrily about “Who the hell she thinks she is?!” and she replied in English, "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time".<br />
<br />
Much later on the Bell Tree Express it is confirmed that Vermouth was the woman on the other end of the line. Itakura was well known for doing visual effects for movies and had met Sharon Vineyard on sets. She disguised her voice and ordered a program from him. For uncertain reasons, he and Sharon later had a nasty falling out on a set and frequently argued after that.<br />
<br />
==Four Porsches (Manga: [[Volume_41#Four_Porsches_Case|420-422]], Anime [[The Four Porsches|338-339]])==<br />
Haibara is sick. Conan lies to Agasa about making a call to Dr. Araide saying he tied up with the court case. Later, a case occurs when Agasa and Conan take Haibara out to another clinic. Haibara gets worse during the case and Agasa calls Dr. Araide. Araide is surprised when Agasa mentions Conan’s supposed call, saying he has been in the office all day, but a call came in when he was in the bathroom. Conan lied about making the call, because he really didn't want Araide near Haibara. Agasa asks Araide to pick Haibara up because they are stuck in a case. Meanwhile Akai, who has Araide’s office bugged, contacts Jodie to intercept to keep Vermouth from being alone with Haibara.<br />
<br />
Araide, Agasa, and Jodie go to Agasa’s house. Araide treats her while there and Jodie helps out. While they are there, Vermouth bugs Agasa’s house.<br />
<br />
At the end of this case, Vermouth is seen later in her office with the dart board pouring herself a drink. She announces to herself that she has found Sherry and is coming for her. She takes Sherry's picture off the dartboard and burns it. Similar scenes with Vermouth in the office occurred much earlier chronologically than when shown in the chapters, but it unclear when this scene took place in the timeline.<br />
<br />
==Hidden Bathroom Secret (Manga: [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|423]]-[[Volume_42#Bathroom_Murder_Case|425]], Anime: [[Hidden Bathroom Secret|340-341]])==<br />
Vermouth is listening in on bugs that have been planted in the house to Conan and Agasa’s discussion about an architect friend of Professor Miyano’s. Conan knows about the bugs, but doesn’t remove them because he isn’t sure of the consequences might be. Later, Vermouth contacts Calvados and tells him to finish off someone.<br />
<br />
==Head to Head with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume_42#Halloween_Party_Case|429-434]], Anime: [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|345]])==<br />
===The Fullmoon Night and Black Banquet Trap ([[Volume_42#File_429_-_The_Full_Moon_and_the_Trap_at_the_Banquet|429]])===<br />
Vermouth sends a signed off-season Halloween party invitation to Kogoro Mouri and to Conan addressed for Shinichi Kudo challenging them to solve a murder on the ship. Conan asks Haibara who is still sick about the name Vermouth, and learns from her reaction that it is the codename of one of the Black Organization members. <br />
<br />
Agasa’s house is still bugged and Conan takes advantage of that to manipulate Vermouth into believing he is going to go to the party. Conan knows at this time Vermouth wants to avoid catching him up in her plan to capture Sherry because of the events at New York in the Golden Apple case.<br />
<br />
Gin has been ordered by the boss to look into Vermouth’s movements related to the Halloween party and tells Vodka to board the ship and investigate. He has no idea what Vermouth is doing but tells Vodka to kill her if she does anything weird even if she is the boss’s favorite.<br />
<br />
===The Haunted Ship Painted with Blood ([[Volume_42#File_430_-_The_Haunted_Ship_Painted_with_Blood|430]])=== <br />
Heiji Hattori disguised as Shinichi Kudo under a layer of bandages boards the ghost ship. Vodka in costume boards as well. A murder takes place on the ghost ship as Vermouth said. At Agasa's house, Conan has been disguised as Haibara by Yukiko Kudo, and he has locked the real Haibara in the basement to keep her safe. Conan doesn't know Heiji broke the lock. Dr. Araide calls Agasa’s, initiating her plan believing Haibara should now be alone, and the disguised Conan answers. Dr. Araide says he is coming to pick up Haibara because her cold doesn't seem to be getting any better. Conan agrees.<br />
<br />
===The Invisible Man Appears ([[Volume_42#File 431 - The Invisible Man Enters!|431]])===<br />
Jodie, trying to protect Haibara after hearing the exchange on the phone through the bugs, picks up Conan disguised as Haibara before Dr. Araide can get there. Dr. Araide sees Jodie pulling away and he follows. Conan notices Dr. Araide is following. Unknown to all parties involved, Ran is hiding in Jodie's trunk.<br />
<br />
===Shinichi Kudo To The Rescue ([[Volume_42#File 432 - Shinichi Kudo Appears!?|432]])===<br />
During the car ride, Conan tells Jodie that he will trust her if she can force Dr Araide to reveal she is Vermouth. Jodie agrees. <br />
Araide and Jodie arrive at the wharf. Dr. Araide stays in character and Jodie sets a trap for him using the story about the murder at Dr. Araide's house. Vermouth doesn't know the police and the murderer put together a false investigation to protect the maid Hikaru as she was the one who flipped the switch that caused the electrocution. Vermouth falls for the trap, Jodie tells the truth and Vermouth takes off the Araide mask.<br />
<br />
===The Truth Behind the Mask ([[Volume_42#File_433_-_The_Truth_Behind_the_Mask|433]])===<br />
The chapter opens with a flashback to twenty years ago when Vermouth killed Jodie's father who was in the FBI investigating her. After Vermouth killed Jodie's father she inadvertently handled Jodie’s father’s glasses barehanded which had fallen off of him and got her fingerprints on them. Unexpectedly, little Jodie came in and saw Vermouth holding the glasses. When Vermouth left after setting the house on fire, she didn't anticipate that Jodie left to get juice, taking her father’s glasses with her and thus preserving her fingerprint. After she discovered Jodie's corpse was not found in the house, Vermouth looked for the girl desperately in order to rectify her mistake, but Jodie had since been put into witness protection. <br />
<br />
The murder on the ghost ship was solved by Hattori Heiji and the murderer reveals someone named Vermouth forced him to commit the crime. The man who had resentment for the victim posted in a murder forum that he wanted to kill him. Someone named Vermouth had replied back and asked if he would be willing to kill the victim if Vermouth provided the technique and the tools to do so. The murderer refused, but then Vermouth mailed him pictures of him and his family, tapes of intercepted phone calls, and detailed notes of the his families' daily actions. The parcel came with a threat that if the man didn't carry out the murder or reported Vermouth to the police, he and his family would die. Vodka overhears this and presumably reports it to Gin who reports to the boss.<br />
<br />
It is also revealed that Vermouth visited Araide clinic with only a cold intending to kill Araide and impersonate him. The FBI faked Araide and his family’s deaths by having doubles drive his car off the road in front of Vermouth’s car. Vermouth took advantage of the accident to replace Araide.<br />
<br />
Jodie proceeds to ask Vermouth some questions which Vermouth doesn't answer. Jodie asks if Haibara and the woman in the Sherry's picture are the same person. She asks about Ran and Conan's pictures. Jodie also asks why Vermouth protected Conan during the bus jack case. She reveals that Sharon and Chris Vineyard are the same person and asks why Vermouth does not appear to age. <br />
<br />
Jodie calls out for her fellow FBI agents to arrest Vermouth, but Vermouth had come to this spot ahead of time disguised as Jodie and had sent all the FBI agents waiting out in advance away. Instead Calvados, a sniper infatuated with Vermouth, is waiting instead and shoots Jodie. Vermouth prepares to kill Jodie when Conan kicks her gun away with a soccer ball and removes his Haibara disguise. The real Haibara also arrives after tracking Conan with the tracing glasses.<br />

[[File:Conan threatens Vermouth.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan orders Vermouth to take him to [[anokata|the boss]] or else he will transmit the boss's phone number to [[Hiroshi Agasa|his friend]].]]Conan, distracted by Haibara, is shot with his own stun-gun wristwatch. Vermouth prepares to kill Haibara, telling her "to blame your parents who took over this foolish research." At that moment Ran leaps out of Jodie's trunk and tackles Haibara to shield her from the bullets. Vermouth orders Calvados to stop shooting at Ran, and screams at "Angel" to move away from Haibara since she is unwilling to kill Ran because of her rescue during the case in New York. <br />
<br />
Shuichi Akai sneaks up Calvados and disables him. Jodie moves out of the sniper's range and shoots Vermouth in the shoulder. Akai appears and surprises Vermouth. He proceeds to insult her by calling her a 'rotten apple' provoking Vermouth to shoot him, but Akai fires with his gun first and wounds Vermouth badly. Akai shows Jodie that the shotgun scared Vermouth's face, revealing that she isn't wearing a mask to hide her age. To escape, Vermouth kidnaps the unconscious Conan and while escaping from Jodie's car, shoots the gas tank of the remaining other car to prevent being followed. <br />
<br />
She receives a text from the boss telling her, "It looks like I have given you too much freedom. Come back to my side, Vermouth." She replies to the boss's text and Conan records to sounds of the dialed number. Conan, who has woken up some time before, tells Vermouth to take him to the boss or he will transmit the boss's number. Vermouth escapes via sleeping gas and shooting herself in the leg to keep herself awake while Conan dozes off. She destroys the recorder Conan has with him, but he remembers the boss’s phone number by sound anyway. She leaves her coat on Conan to prevent him from getting cold. She calls Gin from a payphone and tells him to pick her up, saying she had been caught by Shuichi Akai and wounded by him. Gin asks her if she knows someone named Shinichi Kudo and she lies, saying she doesn't know. She leaves with the thought that Shinichi Kudo, since he could touch her heart, might be the Silver bullet that destroys the Black Organization.<br />

The real Dr. Araide returns and helps with a school ghost mystery case. He seems to only know the basic details of the impersonation he was the victim of. Conan puzzles over why Vermouth disguised as Araide joined the primary/high school rather than a university when it is clear that Ai would have been too old to attend one. Araide seems surprised when Ran says he is nice and in the end he gets a call from Jodie. Araide says he is surprised how well liked the disguised Vermouth’s Araide was based on student/teacher testimony and asks Jodie if Vermouth is really a bad person. Jodie becomes exceedingly grumpy and yells at Araide.<br />
<br />
==Cellphone arc==<br />
Several times, Conan involuntary recalls Vermouth dialing [[anokata|the boss]] while watching other people dialing their phones. The sound of the number being entered, [[Nanatsu no Ko]], unconsciously makes him feel Vermouth's expression was sad and dear.<br />

==Black Organization versus FBI (Manga: [[Volume_48#Black_Organization_vs._FBI|499]]-[[Volume_49#Black_Organization_vs_FBI|504]], Anime: [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|425]])== <br />
Vermouth makes her first appearance since the confrontation with her prior in the back of Gin's Porsche when he and Rena meet to discuss the details of an upcoming assassination. The primary plan didn't involve Vermouth, instead [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] would lure the target, DJ, to sit on a bench where [[Chianti]] and [[Korn]] would snipe him. Chianti is very displeased that Vermouth is present, believing that she used [[Calvados]]' infatuation to use him in an irresponsible plan that got him killed. Vermouth teases Chianti by blowing her a kiss and wishing her good luck to spite her. Chianti and Korn later comment to each other in private that they would like to kill Vermouth even though she is the boss's favorite. Vermouth sat in the back of Gin's car in the parking lot during this first plan and was shocked to see Conan and Jodie arrive in Agasa's car to to intercept the assassination. She says nothing to Gin and Vodka and instead wonders how Conan will manage.<br />
<br />
The failure of the first plan due to Conan and Jodie's actions initiates the second plan. The Black Organization agents assemble in an abandoned building by the water to discuss the details: Vermouth on a motorbike, in disguise as an opponent of DJ, will crash in front of DJ's car. When DJ exits the car, Kir will come up from behind and shoot him. As the planning wrapped up, a certain comment from Kir prompts Vermouth to ask if she was a [[Wikipedia:Non-official cover|NOC]], which Kir denies offhand.<br />
<br />
The second plan was never executed because Kir was captured by the [[FBI]] on the way to the rendezvous point and Gin discovered the tracker on Kir's shoe that allowed Conan to overhear the plan. Gin contacts [[anokata|the boss]] who calls off the assassination and approves a new target: [[Kogoro Mouri]] whom Gin believes is the tracker's owner. Conan arrives just in time to block the snipers' shot, and Gin tells Chianti and Korn to kill him along with Kogoro. Vermouth objects to this assassination, pointing out he is heavily involved with the police. Gin asks her at gunpoint if there is something between her and Kogoro. Her reply "my, my, if there was, what would you do?", satisfies Gin enough to take his gun off of her, but not enough to call off the murder. [[Shuichi Akai]]'s timely interference stops the assassination completely and the Black Organization retreats. In the car, Vermouth points out that it all seemed to be a trap by the FBI with Kogoro as the bait. This explanation seems to satisfy everyone but Gin who still has some residual suspicion of Kogoro.<br />
<br />
==Menu for Dinner (Manga: [[Volume_54#Mysterious_Job_Case|554]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|465]])== <br />
As part of the Organization mission to uncover the fate and whereabouts of their missing agent Kir who the FBI captured in the events of Organization vs. the FBI, Vermouth, most likely following a clue from a homepage made by a fan of Mizunashi Rena, interrogates a kid present at Kir’s motorcycle wreck and subsequent capture and discovers Kir was injured and is most likely in a hospital. Acting on this intelligence, the Organization begins dispatching agents to search hospitals in secret.<br />

==Red versus Black (Manga: [[Volume_57#Fake_Patient_Case|595]]-[[Volume_59#Foreign_Suspect_Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]])==<br />
Vermouth was ordered by the boss to find and follow Akai's Chevrolet when the FBI were moving [[Kir]] in the three vans. To Gin's annoyance, she was late with her report because Akai parked far from the hospital. She later sneaks up on and examines [[Jodie Starling]] and [[James Black]]'s reactions to the news that [[Akai]] died, seemingly in order to test if Akai's death was genuine. She thinks to herself that the remaining "silver bullet", Conan, is enough.<br />

==Thirteen Red Shirts (Manga: [[Volume 67#Department Store Bomber Case|700-704]], Anime: [[The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen|578]]-[[The Red Shaking Target|581]])==<br />
[[File:Vermouth episode 581.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth talks to Gin about an unstated plan she made with the boss's approval.]] <br />
Sometime offscreen after Red versus Black, Vermouth was approached by [[Bourbon]] with a request. Bourbon didn't initially believe [[Shuichi Akai]] was dead, so he had the idea to disguise as Akai to uncover the truth. He would approach Akai's close friends and colleagues and observe their reactions to him in order to see if Akai was dead. Bourbon asked Vermouth for her disguise assistance, and also made a promise to Vermouth, perhaps in exchange for her help. [[Anokata|The boss]] approved their plan out of an abundance of caution, but Vermouth and Bourbon failed to tell Gin and the other members about it. Vermouth then disguised Bourbon as [[Scar Akai|Akai with a large scar on his face]]. <br />
<br />
Their failing to inform the other Black Organization members of the plan backfires when Gin hears about "Akai" and attempts to have him assassinated. Vermouth pulls up in front of Gin as "Scar Akai" leaves the department store. She warns Gin not to shoot Scar Akai because he is [[Bourbon]] in disguise. She gives an affirmative when Gin asks if she had [[anokata|the boss]]'s approval for this plan which they had failed to mention to him. She mentions the plan was an extra precaution to make sure Shuichi Akai was dead because the boss is a very cautious person.<br />
<br />
==Conan Edogawa Kidnapped (Manga: [[Volume 76|800]], Anime: [[Detectives' Nocturne|674]])==<br />
Vermouth called [[Bourbon]] while overlooking the traffic-accident aftermath of a case where Conan had been taken hostage. [[Amuro]] then answered the call. Vermouth told Bourbon that had he had "gained some trust" and she hoped that he would keep the promise he made to her. At the time, Vermouth was alone on [[Vehicles_in_Detective_Conan#Harley-Davidson_V-Rod|her motorbike]] observing from an overpass.<br />
<br />
==Bell Tree Arc (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Raven Mystery Train|701-704]])==<br />
[[Image:Vermouth bathrobe mystery train.png|thumb|right|200px|Vermouth calls Gin about Bourbon's Shiho discovery]]<br />
When Bourbon uncovered a video of [[Shiho Miyano]] that showed she was going to be on the Bell Tree Express, he reported it to Vermouth, who then reported it to Gin. When Vermouth called Gin to inform him of the video, he was pleased and confided that he was worried she might have been hiding sympathy for Shiho. She told him that was nonsense, and not to interfere with her plans until the train arrives at its final destination. Bourbon and Vermouth decided to team up in order to capture Shiho, however, although Bourbon wanted to capture Shiho alive, Vermouth intended to kill her and had altered Bourbon's plan without telling him.<br />
<br />
It was decided that Vermouth, who could impersonate Akai's voice, would don the Scar Akai disguise and use it to trick [[Masumi Sera]] so they could get her out of the way and intimidate Shiho into fleeing to part of the train where Bourbon lay in wait. Vermouth figured that Haibara would take an antidote and become Shiho to avoid revealing her deaged state, and she would then run away from her friends so they would not be in placed in danger. Strategically placed smoke canisters would simulate a fire in the back carriages of the train. The known pyrophobic, repeat-riding passengers in the second to last carriage, along with Bourbon yelling fire, would cause all the other passengers to evacuate forward while Shiho would run towards the back of the train. Bourbon would then confront her alone there, knock her out, move her to the luggage car, and detach it with a small bomb so a helicopter trailing the train could collect her alive. This would also stop the train from arriving at the final destination in Nagoya where Gin has planted a large amount of C-4 to blow the entire train up. Unbeknownst to Bourbon, Vermouth had modified his plan by filling the luggage car with leftover C-4 so she could detonate it as soon as Bourbon detached it and kill Shiho. <br />
<br />
[[Image:Scar Akai and Sera.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Vermouth tazes Sera]]<br />
Vermouth and Bourbon follow their intended plans. Vermouth had bugged Agasa's room to keep abreast of what the Detective Boys were doing. Vermouth then intimidates Haibara by glaring at her in passing while disguised as Scar Akai and then sending her a threatening text message. Haibara, as expected, attempts to flee from her friends. What Vermouth did not anticipate was a murder taking place in the train leaving a vacant room for Shiho to hide in, that Conan, Yukiko, and Subaru Okiya were working together to foil the plan, and that Kaitou Kid was on-board scoping the train for an upcoming heist. Haibara goes to the empty room where Yukiko intercepts her and tells her of their own plan. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Bourbon informs Vermouth when Masumi passed by alone so Vermouth in disguise as Scar Akai could intercept her and get her out of the way. On the way to get Masumi, [[Yukiko Kudo]] walks by and challenges Vermouth to a "battle of wits" where Vermouth would have to truly give up on Shiho forever if Conan outsmarted her on the train. Vermouth then confronts Masumi, knocks her out with a stun gun, and moves her to her room. Vermouth then mails Bourbon that she had "removed the obstacle, so the rest should go as planned". <br />
<br />
Fearing Yukiko's plan, Vermouth looks up Yukiko's room on the passengers list and searches through her cabin. She finds supplies that Yukiko seemed to be intending to use to disguise as Shiho and fake her death, so Vermouth throws them all out of the train. Yukiko then confronts Vermouth directly, and Vermouth rips off her Scar Akai mask. Vermouth expresses surprise that Yukiko was involved in the battle between Conan and the Black Organization, and Yukiko replies that she had involved herself. Yukiko then taunts Vermouth over her unaging state, and that the great Sharon Vineyard was nothing more than makeup. Vermouth questions Yukiko about her plan, and Yukiko teasingly reveals a few details such as Masumi being retrieved from Vermouth's room already. Yukiko returns to the topic of unaging, explaining that her side has an advantage over Vermouth because she does not want her unaging state revealed and has kept Conan's and Haibara's state a secret from her coworkers. Yukiko then draws the connection to Suguru Itakura, a CG artist who had worked with Sharon in some movies with visual effects. Yukiko explains that she learned from Conan that Vermouth had ordered some software from him, and she had heard that Sharon and he had uncharacteristically quarreled. Yukiko wonders if that is relevant to Vermouth's state and secret-keeping.<br />
<br />
Not wanting to continue with this line of questioning, Vermouth cuts Yukiko off by drawing her gun and revealing that she has seen through her "fruitcake of a plan". Vermouth explains how she knew Yukiko intended to disguise as Shiho and pretend to be killed, and she ruined it by throwing all the disguise materials out. When Yukiko gets a call from Conan, Vermouth takes the phone from Yukiko and answers it in her voice; Conan announces he can't find Haibara anywhere. Falsely thinking Conan was deceived, Vermouth hangs up, and then explains her and Bourbon's plan to Yukiko. Vermouth activates the smoke canisters, and as predicted everyone flees to the front of the train to avoid the fire except for "Shiho", who is really Kaito Kid in disguise, who runs to the back of the train. Bourbon confronts her there and forces the fake Shiho into the luggage car where she reveals that Vermouth had tricked Bourbon and planted bombs to kill her. Bourbon tries to get Shiho to leave with him, but Shiho shuts herself in, and Akai separates the train cars like Bourbon originally intended with a grenade. Hearing the explosion, Vermouth triggers her bombs to detonate and blows up the luggage car. Yukiko acts defeated and Vermouth leaves triumphant. Vermouth then quickly disguises herself as a woman with braids to avoid recognition when the train stops prematurely.<br />
<br />
Vermouth realizes she had been tricked when she sees Haibara Ai draped over Agasa's shoulder and figures out Kaitou Kid had posed as Shiho Miyano and escaped the luggage car before it exploded. She also realizes Conan had feigned ignorance on the phone earlier so Yukiko could continue to hold her up. She mentally congratulates Yukiko for "excellent casting". Bourbon, who had seen the figure of Akai through the smoke, asks Vermouth if he can review the files on Akai's death again.<br />

After [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and Conan finished solving a case, Vermouth is shown in the last scene talking to him while taking a bath. She asks how longer he plans to stay with Kogoro Mouri and notes that ever since Conan planted a bug on Kir's shoes, he has been wanting to monitor Kogoro's actions. Vermouth lies to Bourbon and keeps her promise to Yukiko about laying off Sherry by assuring him that they were able to "send Sherry to her grave". Bourbon replies how his interest has been piqued in 'Sleeping Kogoro' while thinking about Conan implying that he has deduced the secret behind the 'Sleeping Kogoro' act.<br />

Jodie is on the phone to Shibuya Natsuko (teacher), who we learn is Jodie's friend, as Jodie saved her life and she taught Jodie Japanese. We then see Bourbon talking to Vermouth in the next scene about Shibuya Natsuko, who is meant to come and meet him. Vermouth questions Bourbon as to what piece he is trying to fill by using Shibuya Natsuko, but before he answers, they hear a noise as someone has been pushed down some stairs. They both leave the car to see what as happened, and as they approach the dead/fallen person, they find out she is Shibuya Natsuko, who they were speaking of. They leave as Vermouth does not want to create a scene. In the end of the second episode, Bourbon stops Camel at the front of the hospital to question him as to what happened to Kisuda Rikumichi, but a Vermouth disguised as Jodie, says i hope you didnt tell him about Rikumichi? Camel says i wouldnt tell him that he shot himself with a gun. Vemrouth smiles as she has got the information she needs, and walks off.<br />
