He shows up all of a sudden in the Mouri Agency (since he suspects Shinichi has a hand on Kogoro's recent success and Sonoko told him where it was located), bringing a nice Osakan liquor as a gift to Kogoro (so he'll let him stay overnight), and delivers the challenge, which will take place regarding the request coming from a rich woman: to make a background check on her future daughter-in-law, a young woman who's simply too good to be true so she could actually be a wolf in sheep's clothing or a gold digger in disguise.<br /> <br /> However, before Conan can save his reputation, he must first save himself, as a mysterious sickness threatens to close his file for good, and then check on his surroundings, as the husband of their client appears dead right after the group arrives to his big and fancy house.<br /> <br /> {{InfoBox Crime<br /> | crime = Murder<br /> | image = EP48-49 Case.jpg<br /> | location = Tsujimura household<br /> | victim = Isao Tsujimura<br /> | age = 54 years old<br /> | cause-death = Imbibed needle poison<br /> | suspects = Kimie Tsujimura, Fumio Koike, [[Yukiko Katsuragi]], [[Takayoshi Tsujimura]], and Toshimitsu Tsujimura<br /> | description = Kimie Tsujimura goes to the Mouri Agency to ask them to look for info about her stepson's girlfriend, Yukiko. She then takes Conan, Ran, Kogoro, and Heiji to the Tsujimura household, where the family is about to gather. However, when she goes speak to the apparently asleep patriarch of the family, he suddenly drops dead.<br /> }}<br /> <br /> ==== Part 2 ====<br /> Heiji Hattori believes that the murder of the diplomat Isao Tsujimura is a locked room one, and he's also sure of who the killer is. But almost at the same time, Conan collapses due to his illness, and then Shinichi Kudo returns to the surprise of everyone, especially himself. As Shinichi tries to expose the real secret behind the perfectly sealed room, the rivalry between he and Heiji Hattori heats up. Deceit and treachery are revealed, as Isao Tsujimura's killer is finally unmasked and their reasons to commit the crime are explained.<br /> <br /> === People ===<br /> {{BeginBox}}<br /> {{People|Kimie Tsujimura|Kimie Tsujimura.jpg|<br /> * 50 years old<br /> * Isao's wife}}<br /> {{People|Fumio Koike|Fumio Koike.jpg|<br /> * 48 years old<br /> * Tsujimura family butler}}<br /> {{People|[[Yukiko Katsuragi]]|Yukiko Katsuragi.jpg|<br /> * 24 years old<br /> * Takayoshi's girlfriend<br /> * Tohto Medical School student}}<br /> {{People|[[Takayoshi Tsujimura]]|Takayoshi Tsujimura.jpg|<br /> * 27 years old<br /> * Isao's only son<br /> * Legal apprentice}}<br /> {{People|Toshimitsu Tsujimura|Toshimitsu Tsujimura.jpg|fsize=0.79em|squeezed=1|<br /> * 78 years old<br /> * Isao's father<br /> * Retired college professor}}<br /> {{People|Isao Tsujimura|Isao Tsujimura.jpg|<br /> * Victim (poison)<br /> * 54 years old<br /> * Diplomat}}<br /> {{People|Ms. Tsujimura|No pic female.jpg|<br /> * Isao's ex-wife<br /> * Takayoshi's mother}}<br /> {{EndBox}}<br /> <br /> === Resolution ===<br /> &lt;spoiler&gt;The killer is '''Kimie Tsujimura'''. She murdered her husband by first drugging him with sleeping pills before going to the Mouri agency, then pretending to try waking him up, but actually poisoning him with a poison-imbibed needle that she hid inside a locket attached to her keychain. Which was exactly the same type of locket/keychain that Tsujimura himself had. She also tried to stage a fake locked room murder with Tsujimua's locket keychain and fishing lines specifically placed all around the home to make him look guilty no matter which room he visited after the murder and to make everyone believe that Tsujimura had died and had been locked inside the study with the sealed room trick; in reality, he was alive but asleep due to the drugs, so Kimie secretly prickled him to his death in front of everyone.<br /> <br /> Kimie's reasons to murder her husband were the following: twenty years before she was was happily married to a man named Kenji Yamashiro and they had a little daughter, Yukiko. Tsujimura, who was in love with Kimie and jealous of Yamashiro, staged a cruel trap to accuse him of being involved in a fraud. Yamashiro was sent to jail and died there soon after, then Tsujimura courted the extremely distraught Kimie, and as soon as she was widowed he divorced his wife/Takayoshi's mother and convinced Kimie to marry him. Kimie was unaware of this and accepted, since she was completely devastated and had to give up her child's custody to Yamashiro's family.<br /> <br /> {{BeginBox}}<br /> {{People|Kenji Yamashiro|Kenji Yamashiro.jpg|<br /> * Deceased (15 years ago)<br /> * Kimie's first husband and Yukiko's father<br /> * Wrongly convicted<br /> * Diplomat}}<br /> {{EndBox}}<br /> <br /> Twenty years after the &quot;fraud&quot;, the adult Takayoshi brought a picture of a girl he had fallen for and intended to marry: she happened to be Yukiko, Kimie and Yamashiro's daughter, who had grown to look almost exactly like a younger Kimie save for her hair/color scheme. (As seen in an old picture of the just-married Kimie and Tsujimura, which the latter kept in his studio). Tsujimura realised who the girl was, was completely horrified and started screaming at his son for wanting to marry &quot;that man's child&quot;. Kimie also recognized Yukiko in the picture and started to get suspicious, then Tsujimura revealed the truth to her. So she decided to kill her &quot;husband&quot; to get at him, using her visit to Kogoro to ask about Yukiko's background as an excuse that would provide her for an alibi.<br /> <br /> (As a corollary, Toshimitsu Tsujimura had helped his son Isao in his plan to &quot;steal&quot; Kimie from Yamashiro and send him to jail. He had repented long ago, though, and he wanted to take the blame for his son's murder as a way to atone for his terrible sin. Therefore, when Heiji said that he was the culprit, he willingly confessed for a crime that he hadn't committed, trying to wash away the sin of ruining the Yamashiro family's lives.)<br /> <br /> Kimie confesses that she is the killer, reveals the above mentioned motive and surrenders to the police without any resistence. Before being taken away, she begs Takayoshi to take good care of her daughter Yukiko, and Takayoshi promises to do so as Yukiko cries after learning the truth.<br /> <br /> Heiji aknowledges his loss and tells this to Shinichi, aknowledging him officially as the winner of this case. Shinichi, however, calls him a fool and says that it's useless to compete, since there is and always be only one truth. After saying this, he almost collapses atop of the stairs; since he had recovered his original physical age solely as an effect of the homemade liquor (doubling as a folk cure for colds) that Heiji made him drink earlier ''and'' the cold he had, it was only temporary and it was wearing off.<br /> <br /> Ran, who knew nothing about this, catches him trying to sneak away and tries to make him stay so he will go to a doctor. He tells her to wait and gets away by practically throwing himself down the stairs as his body begins to actually reverse to a child's one, nevermind his mental pleas to resist a little so he can stay with Ran a little longer. Then, Shinichi almost screams Ran's name before fully shrinking back.<br /> <br /> When Ran finally catches up, she finds Conan alone in an oversized shirt. He tells her that Shinichi has just left and then passes out of pain and light-headness, which keeps Ran from making him answer any more questions.<br /> <br /> Heiji returns to Osaka and, once Conan gets mildly better, he wonders why did his body return to normal even if for some minutes. He realises it was an after-effect of the liquor, but Ran catches him trying to snatch the bottle from the drunk Kogoro and takes it away. Conan is upset but then the Detective Kids drop by to visit, which cheers him up a little.&lt;/spoiler&gt;<br /> <br /> == Translation changes ==<br /> === Anime ===<br /> * In the English Dub, after the accusation of spying on Ran, Shinichi states that he's a detective and that's what he does, whereas in the Japanese version he states that he can tell how Ran is doing by hearing her voice.<br /> * In the English Dub, Heiji drops subtle hints that the two men who poisoned him were [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]], whereas in the Japanese version he merely acknowledges Shinichi as a worthy rival. The dub change presumably was made to fix a story problem for the upcoming ''[[Game Company Murder Case]]'' (see that page's continuity error).<br /> * In the English Dub, Heiji also, in the same lines about Gin and Vodka, alludes to the fact that he already knows that Shinichi is Conan, despite the fact that he doesn't deduce this until his next appearance in ''[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]''.<br /> * The names of the characters in the Funimation Dub are:<br /> :* Heiji Hattori - Harley Hartwell<br /> :* Heizo Hattori - Martin Hartwell<br /> :* Kimie Tsujimura - Camiel

Agasa warns him that he must keep his identity secret because the [[Black Organization]] will kill him and others associated with him should they discover the truth.&lt;ref name=&quot;e2&quot;&gt;[[Company President's Daughter Kidnapping Case]].&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> [[Image:Shinichi and Conan.jpg|thumb|right|Edogawa Conan, the shrunken Shinichi]]<br /> <br /> Ran arrives to find out what happened to Shinichi, which forces him to come up with the alias Conan Edogawa from [[Arthur Conan Doyle|Arthur '''''Conan''''' Doyle]] and [[Rampo Edogawa|Rampo '''''Edogawa''''']] and he pretends to be a distant relative of Agasa's, who places Conan in Ran's care.&lt;ref name=&quot;e2&quot;/&gt; Ran's father, [[Kogoro Mouri]], owns a [[Setting#Mouri Detective Agency|Detective Agency]], which will allow Conan to run into cases involving the Black Organization. He occasionally uses Kogoro, and Agasa, among others as a mouthpiece to solve crimes while searching for how to get his body back.<br /> <br /> In the meantime, to protect his identity he is forced to play the part of a first-year Elementary student, enrolling as a student at [[Teitan Elementary School]]. Three of his classmates, [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]], [[Genta Kojima|Genta]], and [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]], befriend him and pull him into creating the ''[[Detective Boys]]'', &lt;ref&gt;[[The Coded Map of the City Case]]&lt;/ref&gt; after which he tries to keep them out of trouble. Their group is later joined by the creator of APTX 4869, [[Shiho Miyano]], shrunk down and using the alias [[Ai Haibara]].<br /> <br /> Although he mostly uses the Conan alias to solve cases, in some (especially emergency) situations, he uses the Voice-Changing Bowtie to call the police using his original, Shinichi's voice and get involved with cases, which allow him to gain the authority that Conan lacks. In the aftermath; however, Shinichi requests his identity not to be revealed to the public, a clear contrast to his earlier attention-seeking behavior before turning to Conan.<br /> <br /> == Personality ==<br /> At the beginning of the series, Shinichi is already well-known as a brilliant young detective, the &quot;Savior of the police force&quot;, for solving many difficult cases the professionals could not.&lt;ref name=&quot;e1&quot;&gt;[[Roller Coaster Murder Case|Episode 1: Roller Coaster Murder Case]].&lt;/ref&gt; He is extremely intelligent, and even from a young age was very intuitive and observant. Due to the influence of his father and the general laissez-faire environment at home, he has long been an incessant and persistent reader, especially of mystery novels.&lt;ref name=&quot;f569&quot;&gt;[[Volume 55#File 569 - The Mischievous Boy|Volume 55, Files 569-572: &quot;The Mischievous Boy&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; His father, Yusaku started taking Shinichi to crime scenes as a child, which inspired him to be a detective.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 21#File 205 - Midair Sealed Chamber|Volume 21, File 205, pages 74-78: &quot;Midair Sealed Chamber&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; Due to his bluntness and matter-of-fact manner, Shinichi can come off as rude and arrogant. However, he cares deeply about human life, unable to understand how any reason could be sufficient motive for murder,&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 26#File 258 - Momentary Rest|Volume 26, File 258, page 71: &quot;Momentary Rest&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; and is convinced that driving a culprit to suicide is no better than murder itself. &lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 16#File 153 - Bonds of Flame|Volume 16, File 153: &quot;Bonds of Flame&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; The few times he has been too late to save a life haunt him throughout the series. He also thinks of other people's feelings, and in some cases he has been willing to conceal facts from certains parties in order spare them from being scarred from the ugly truth.<br /> <br /> Prior to his transformation, Shinichi enjoyed being in the spotlight and was rather arrogant, reveling in making local headlines and receiving fan-mail. Throughout the series, Shinichi's predicament causes him to gain a sense of humility. Shinichi still keeps his flair for the dramatic (like his mother) that can be seen every time he sets out a deduction in pieces building to a climax.<br /> <br /> Despite his popularity with the masses and his schoolmates, Shinichi has very few close friends. He is close to Ran and Agasa, and after deaging, he befriended Heiji, Haibara, and to some extent the other Detective Boys. Another reason for his lack of close friends was because his arrogant personality was a negative turn-off to many of his classmates and even teachers, making it hard to befriend him. Even with his close friends (one being older than him), Shinichi doesn't hesitate to call them &quot;idiot&quot;, instead of calmly explaining his reason for doing or not doing something, sometimes causing arguments between him and Ran.<br /> <br /> Shinichi also had a tendency, since elementary school, to have an air of being the &quot;distant, cool guy&quot;. While he is a truly good and heroic individual, he doesn't make it known to others that obviously, and will make some &quot;deductive reasoning&quot; for why he did such a thing. His insensitive nature is also horrible, which was shown most prominently during the Holmes' Revelation Arc, when Ran started crying because she believed that Shinichi not telling her he was in London meant that he was indifferent to her feelings for him. However, instead of trying to comfort her, Shinichi repeatedly asked her about the [[Yukiko Kudo|strange woman]] she met, and told her to pull herself together.<br /> <br /> Shinichi was ready to confess his feelings during the Roller Coaster Murder Case but due to Ran's teasing, he didn't. After turning into Conan and knowing that Ran loved him, whenever he turned back into Shinichi, he would try to confess his feelings for her but the antidote running out would foil his attempts. He was successfully able to convey his feelings in London.<br /> <br /> The reason behind Shinichi's desensitization towards violent and brutal crime scenes is because his father would take him to crime scenes as a child.<br /> <br /> Shinichi is also quite fearless not scaring of threatening by guns or surrounding by fire, he also doesn't believe in supernatural like magic or abnormal creatures and believes there is always an explanation for it, he was also fearless as a child.<br /> <br /> == Appearance ==<br /> Shinichi is an above-average height Japanese teenager with a light-complexion, pale skin and a thin yet athletic build. He has blue eyes and short dark brown/black hair with a cowlick in front and distinctive tuft in the back. Shinichi bears a striking resemblance to his father, [[Yusaku Kudo]] albeit a less defined jawline and minus his father's mustache. Often, he is well-noted as very handsome as he became very popular with the girls around his age, regularly getting love letters, which has only grown since becoming a famous detective. Shinichi often appears in his high school uniform, but he also wears a suit and tie or regular clothing depending on the occasion. When Conan turns back into Shinichi by using [[baijiu]] or the [[Prototype antidote|prototype antidote]], Shinichi will wear whatever appropriately sized clothing he can find at the time.<br /> <br /> == Skills ==<br /> :''See also: [[Conan Edogawa#Skills|Conan's Skills]]''<br /> === Intelligence ===<br /> Consistently, Shinichi has proven himself to be a very sharp-witted and calculating individual. While only in high school, his passion mysterious have lead him to be a very well-read to showcase advanced knowledge and understanding in a myriad of subjects, which he can methodically use to aid him in investigations. His detective skills often earns him comparisons to [[Sherlock Holmes]]. Shinichi has acquired various nicknames because of his prowess, such as the &quot;[[Wikipedia: Heisei|Heisei]] Holmes&quot; and the &quot;Detective of the East&quot;. He has a keen eye for details, and can spot any unusual aspects in a case that most people tend to miss or not take into account. He has a keen understanding for criminal psychology, occasionally being able to sense if someone is the true criminal. He can also predict movement and plan of the criminals, and in some cases, he used this skill to &quot;bluff&quot;. By deliberately giving wrong deduction, he managed to make the criminal reveal the key evidence of the case, confess, abandon suicide's attempt, or lead them to the wrong ends. He repeatedly demonstrates an eidetic memory and perfect recall, able to recount every aspect from the situation he has placed himself in. Shinichi's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony, and using astute logic he uncovers the reasons behind those inconsistencies in order to link them to the crime. Shinichi has extraordinarily broad and deep knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases. Few people are able to match wits with him, including [[Heiji Hattori]] and [[Kaito Kuroba]], while only his father, [[Yusaku Kudo]], has shown able consistently proven himself to far surpass his son, both solving mysterious well-before Shinichi and even regularly tricking his on for &quot;tests&quot;.<br /> <br /> === Language ===<br /> Besides his native language, Shinichi is fluent in English, as seen when he solved a case in London without evidence of any language barrier.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 21#File 205 - Midair Sealed Chamber|Volume 21, File 205: &quot;Midair Sealed Chamber&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;f743&quot;&gt;[[Volume 71#File 743 - Holmes' Apprentice|Volumes 71-72, Files 743-752: &quot;Holmes' Apprentice&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; Shinichi also knows some German,&lt;ref&gt;[[Genta's Certain Kill Shot]]&lt;/ref&gt; and Italian.&lt;ref&gt;[[The Coded Map of the City Case]]&lt;/ref&gt; Shinichi seems to understand &quot;Girl Writing&quot;, due to the fact that he had solved an e-mail cipher of a 2nd year high school girl quickly.&lt;ref&gt;[[Secret of the Russian Blue]]&lt;/ref&gt; <br /> <br /> === Athletic ability ===<br /> [[File:Shinichi playing soccer 4 years ago.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Shinichi playing soccer in middle school.]]<br /> Like his intelligence, Shinichi also has an amazing athletic ability. Shinichi is an extremely skilled soccer player, having been professionally scouted while only in middle school, but he chooses to stay at the amateur level. He initially played to hone his reflexes and coordination as he often juggles a ball to clear his mind, but he is also an enthusiastic fan of the sport in its own right.&lt;ref name=&quot;e1&quot;/&gt; While naturally right-handed and right-footed, Shinichi trained himself to be ambidextrous, being just as efficient with either hand or foot. Against criminals, his signature technique is launching various objects with superb precision from his kick to knock the foe out. Shinichi's kick is accurate over long distances and he is capable of mentally reckoning the angle of impact necessary to rebound a soccer ball off a wall and strike an attacker from behind. He is also good at skiing, snowboarding, and ice-skating. Likewise, on a skateboard he can easily perform very complicated tricks and dodges with his skateboard at high speed.<br /> <br /> Aside from sports, Shinichi exhibits a knack and impeccable accuracy for handling firearms due to his father taking him to shooting ranges from time to time. During the Clocktower Heist, Shinichi is able to shoot and dislodge the support beam of a giant projection screen with a single shot from a moving helicopter. Additionally, in [[The Fourteenth Target]], as Conan, he shot a bullet at Ran's leg with such precision, that while it rendered her unable to walk to force the criminal to let her go, but afterwards her leg healed cleanly with no lingering signs or damage. Between his natural aim and coordination, he can likewise hit his target shooting darts like in [[The Detective Boys Get Out of the Rain]], when he throws them to a giant [[Gomera]] puppet so it can fall on the culprit.<br /> <br /> Shinichi is nimble as well as strong. He is capable of considerable acrobatics, jumping great distances and swinging from tree to tree to escape onlookers.&lt;ref&gt;[[Murderer, Shinichi Kudo|Shiragami case]]&lt;/ref&gt; While never as passionate about it as Ran, Shinichi is also well-trained in karate and judo, having learned alongside Ran and watching her compete.&lt;ref&gt;Manga Volume 1, File 1; Anime episode 1 and [[Episode One: The Great Detective Turned Small]].&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;Manga Volume 1, File 5 ; Anime episode 2.&lt;/ref&gt; He has shown remarkable flexibility and precision in his kicks, noted for having an especially good roundhouse kick. While it is unclear where his skill compares to Ran, he can effortlessly dodge a kicking assault from an angry Ran, something very few have ever managed. How does however openly acknowledge Ran as stronger than him. With his proficiency, as seen in [[Murderer, Shinichi Kudo|Shiragami Case]], he disarms the culprit trying to commit suicide, and even against the expert judo practitioner Kogoro, in [[Drama Episode 13]], he avoided Kogoro and take him down as he tries to hurt him.<br /> <br /> === Music ===<br /> Shinichi cannot sing on key in the slightest so he is often accused of being [[Wikipedia:tone deaf|tone deaf]]. Despite being a hilariously awful singer, Shinichi has [[Wikipedia:perfect pitch|perfect pitch]] and can identify notes accurately even in difficult contexts like the sound of phone button presses forming a melody.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 15#File 144 - Their Voices Are Alike!?|Volume 15, File 144: &quot;Their Voices Are Alike!?&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; Also, he can replicate and sing dial tones for a phone, showing that the reason he can't sing is because he simply doesn't have ''relative'' pitch. Like his favorite detective, Sherlock Holmes, he plays the violin. This was confirmed in [[Full Score of Fear]], when he played &quot;Amazing Grace&quot; for Ran. However, he is stumped on what Ran meant when she said, &quot;He has a funny habit when he plays.&quot;<br /> <br /> === Other skills ===<br /> He has remarkable intuition, able to tell when people are spying on him and if they are hiding something. He can defuse a bomb effortlessly without external instruction. Shinichi has repeatedly dispensed first aid to stabbed/shot/cardiac/poisoned/hurt victims before the rescuers arrive. He is also shown able to read lips.&lt;ref&gt;[[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie]]&lt;/ref&gt; Having seemingly inherited his mother's acting talent, he can seamlessly change his persona, as seen from his longstanding deception of the carefree child Conan. He is skilled in impersonation, able to mimic other people's voices, once pretending to be Heji, however he can have some difficultly changing his dialect. He has skills in computer programming and hacking, however they are inferior Haibara's, regularly relying on her to help out; he was not able to crack Black Organization's encrypted data. In non-canon movie 2 he was able to pilot a helicopter as he had been training with a simulator since he was a kid. In non-canon movie 5 he was able to drive a car.<br /> <br /> == Appellations ==<br /> &lt;tabs jsId=&quot;nicknames&quot;&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Protagonists&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Shinichi Kudo}}<br /> {{appellations|Conan Edogawa|Shinichi-niichan &lt;br&gt;

However, Conan is frequently shown calling Ran using his voice-changing bow tie to sound like Shinichi and sending/receiving text messages from her with &quot;Shinichi's&quot; phone. In these instances, it can be said that the character of Shinichi, albeit in the body of Conan, is appearing, since these phone conversations and text messages allow Shinichi to be himself, however briefly. The below instances however, are actual appearances of Shinichi as well as flashbacks from before the series began. <br /> <br /> === Transformation into Conan ===<br /> ==== Roller Coaster Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 1|001-002]], Anime: [[Roller Coaster Murder Case|001]]) ====<br /> [[Image:Shinichi appears.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Shinichi appears to correct Hattori's deduction]] Shinichi starts as himself in the Roller coaster murder case, but by the end he has been transformed into Conan, thus beginning the series' plot. Since then, Conan has temporarily turned back to Shinichi several times.<br /> <br /> === Transformations back into Shinichi ===<br /> ==== Great Detective of the West (Manga: [[Volume 10|092-095]], Anime: [[Diplomat Murder Case|048-049]]) ====<br /> Shinichi's next real appearance after shrinking is when a strange detective from Osaka named [[Heiji Hattori]] arrives at Mouri Detective Agency looking for Shinichi in order to determine which of them is the better detective. A strange combination of having a cold and drinking the [[baijiu]] that Heiji had brought along allows Conan to briefly grow into Shinichi once again.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 10#File 092 - The Great Detective Of The West|Volume 10, Files 92-96: &quot;The Great Detective Of The West&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; However, the transformation quickly wears off and he develops an immunity to the alcohol and cannot replicate the transformation.<br /> <br /> ==== The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume 26|254-260]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188-193]]) ====<br /> Conan is able to become Shinichi using an [[Prototype antidote|antidote]] that [[Ai Haibara]] synthesized. As himself, he tries to surprise Ran by disguising himself as a character in her play, but is interrupted by a murder case and ends up revealing himself to his entire high school. [[Heiji Hattori]] covers for him and Shinichi is able to spend about 48 hours as himself, albeit with a brief collapse about halfway through. He turns back into Conan just as he seems to be about to confess his feelings to Ran.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 26#File 254 - An Infatuated Heart|Volume 26, Files 254-260: &quot;An Infatuated Heart&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> ==== The Murderer is Shinichi Kudo (Manga: [[Volume 62|646-651]], Anime: [[Murderer, Shinichi Kudo|521-523]]) ====<br /> Shinichi's next appearance is when, while on a case with Heiji, Conan goes missing and 'Shinichi' seems to appear. This 'Shinichi' is actually someone who had gotten plastic surgery to look like Shinichi and is trying to frame Shinichi for a murder. The real Shinichi hides in the forest until he can clear his name. Shinichi had been temporarily restored by another of Haibara's prototypes, but this time by accident; Agasa mistakenly gave them to Shinichi thinking they were cold medicine.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 62#File 646 - Village of Animosity|Volume 62, Files 646-651: &quot;Village of Animosity&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; After the case is solved, Shinichi transforms back into Conan, but luckily Haibara secretly followed him there and gives him another antidote, saving him from revealing his identity to Kogoro, Ran, and Kazuha. While driving home from the case, the group is stopped by another murder which Shinichi and Heiji investigate together, despite increasing pangs that warn of his imminent reversion to Conan. After the case is resolved, Ran tries to stop Shinichi from leaving, saying she has something to tell him. Shinichi stops her, saying &quot;According to my deductions, what you have to say and what I have to say are the same thing.&quot; Ran seizes his hand while he is transforming back into Conan, and though Haibara knocks her out with Conan's wristwatch, she refuses to let go of his hand. Haibara and [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] have to cut and re-pin Conan's shirt onto him because Ran is still clutching his hand and he refuses to pull out of her grip.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 62#File 652 - The Thing She Really Wants to Ask|Volumes 62-63, Files 652-654: &quot;The Thing She Really Wants to Ask&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> ==== Holmes' Revelation (Manga: [[Volume 71|743-751]], Anime: [[Holmes' Revelation|616-621]]) ====<br /> Conan, Ran, and Kogoro are invited to England by a rich, elite British woman, Diana Kingstone, after Kogoro finds her cat under the table in Café Poirot. However, since 'Conan Edogawa' doesn't have the proper credentials to fly internationally, Ai gives him a prototype pill so that Shinichi and Agasa can fly low-profile to England on the same plane that Ran and Kogoro are flying. Ai provides a second prototype pill for the return journey, but Conan uses it while Ran was pursuing him in London. During that trip, Shinichi answers Ran's hurt feelings over his behavior with the fact that he cares for her and that he likes her; unfortunately, before she could respond or confess in kind, Shinichi has to vanish and becomes Conan again. Luckily for Conan, Shinichi's parents appear because Ai had expected him to use the second pill, and they provide him with an extra antidote to let Conan return to Japan. &lt;ref name=&quot;f743&quot; /&gt;<br /> <br /> ==== Kyoto School Trip Case (Manga: [[Volume 94|1000-1005]], Anime: [https://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/The_Scarlet_School_Trip 927-928]) ====<br /> Shinichi returns to his real body to take part in the field trip of his school to Kyoto. Shinichi meets an old friend of his mother and through her gets involved in a serial murder case among her and her famous movie friends. After the case was solved, jealousy led Shinichi to ask Ran how she feels about him, since she never formally replied to his confession in London. Ran responds by kissing him on the cheek. Shinichi wants to go in for a full kiss after that, but before they can do it, the antidote wears off and Shinichi has to leave. He later thanks Ran for her reply via text message, making her happy and forget his rushed exit. <br /> <br /> Although Shinichi asked the police to keep his involvement in the case secret again, rumours about high school detectives helping in the case spread quickly through the internet, with one poster mentioning seeing Shinichi in Kyoto, which doesn't go unnoticed by [[Hyoue Kuroda]] and [[Kanenori Wakita]]. The rumours then rapidly evolve into another media frenzy around Shinichi's person.<br /> <br /> === Flashback appearances ===<br /> ==== Shinichi's first case (Manga: [[Volume 21|204-207]], Anime: [[The Locked Room in the Sky: Shinichi Kudo's First Case|162]]) ====<br /> One year ago, Shinichi solved his first case by himself on a plane flying to Los Angeles.&lt;!--they took a second plane to NY as explained in NY flashback--&gt; <br /> <br /> ==== Golden Apple (Manga: [[Volume 34|350]]-[[Volume 35|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]]) ====<br /> One year ago, Shinichi, [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], and [[Yukiko Kudo|his mother]] went to New York City to see the play &quot;Golden Apple&quot;.

Conan became Shinichi for approximately an hour, but according to Ai he was extremely weak and sick for the entire time.<br /> <br /> ==== OVA 9: [[The Stranger from Ten Years Later]] ====<br /> Conan takes another prototype antidote. However, it proves less effective than the prototype he used during the Desperate Revival arc; Conan became Shinichi, but only for a few hours, and remained in a feverish state, unable to wake up until he had reverted back to Conan.

Episode One.png|thumb|right|200px|Shinichi and Ran (Scene from [[Episode One: The Great Detective Turned Small|Episode one]].)]]<br /> ==== Ran Mouri ====<br /> {{main|Shinichi Kudo and Ran Mouri}}<br /> [[Ran Mouri]] is Shinichi's childhood friend and canonical love interest. They have been friends and playmates since kindergarten&lt;ref name=&quot;f569&quot;/&gt;&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 11#File 107 - The Two Mysteries|Volume 11, File 107: &quot;The Two Mysteries&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;, though Shinichi's tendency to drag Ran along into minor trouble caused some censure from [[Eri Kisaki|her mother]]. Shinichi has liked Ran since they were little. It was revealed when he is in the first year of middle school, and turned down any other potential love interests as a result, but she has never realized this.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 18#File 175 - Unlock Your Heart!?|Volume 18, File 175, page 92: &quot;Unlock Your Heart!?&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; Shinichi was similarly oblivious to Ran's regard until Ran confessed to Conan that despite his faults, which she is well aware of, she has liked Shinichi for some time.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 1#File 002 - The Great Detective Turned Small|Volume 1, File 2, page 64: &quot;The Great Detective Turned Small&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; He is very protective of her, and has been amazed by her various skills and kindness on more than one occasion. Shinichi has since confessed his feelings to Ran in the non-[[canon]] 4th movie 'Captured In Her Eyes' (which Ran mistook as his attempt to get her memories back), and made attempts to say something during temporary cures in the manga and anime, but cases always seem to interfere until the cure runs out. Shinichi since then has finally canonically confessed to Ran in the case in London.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 72#File 752 - A Troublesome and Difficult Case|Volume 72, File 752, page 14: &quot;A Troublesome and Difficult Case&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; Later, Ran kissed Shinichi in the cheek in Kyoto school trip as her answer for his confession in London. Immediately, Shinichi tries to do a full kiss with Ran, only for the antidote's effects to wear off; turning him back into Conan. Shinichi has many times now admitted that Ran is the most important person to him/ the one he loves the most.<br /> <br /> [[File:Shinichi Confesses.jpg|thumb|200px|Shinichi Kudo somewhat and somehow confesses his feelings for [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] to her under the Big Ben in London, during the Holmes' Revelation Arc.]]<br /> Shinichi's initial disappearance troubled Ran to the point of insomnia and nearly going to the police. Since then, Shinichi sometimes calls Ran over the telephone and imitates his normal voice with the [[voice-changing bowtie]] so that she doesn't worry about him. He convinces her that he is off solving a very difficult case and will return once the investigation concludes.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 1#File 009 - An Unfortunate Misunderstanding|Volume 1, File 9, Page 15: &quot;An Unfortunate Misunderstanding&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; In reality, he is the brain behind her father's rapid rise to fame as a detective.<br /> <br /> Shinichi/Conan is not without sexual fantasies regarding Ran, the most obvious evidence being his nosebleeds or blushing when he sees her in a bathing suit&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 83#File 873 - Red Devil|Volume 83, File 873, Page 4: &quot;Red Devil&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;, or when Ran pulled him into an [[wikipedia: onsen|onsen]] with her.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 9#File 084 - Kogoro.27s Class Reunion|Volume 9, File 4: &quot;Kogoro's Class Reunion&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; For her part, Ran often blushes when thinking of Shinichi, especially when Sonoko teases her about their relationship. Her attitude towards Conan is one of more open, sisterly affection, such as giving him hugs or holding his hand. Shinichi has some concerns of bodily harm should Ran realize that not only has he been lying to her, but they've shared a bed and taken a bath together.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 14#File 134 - Question In Dead Leave|Volume 14, File 134, pages 60-67: &quot;Question In Dead Leave&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> Shinichi and Ran appear to share a close empathic link due to their strong feelings for each other, making each of them feel the other's worry and agitation in times of extreme danger.&lt;ref&gt;Manga Chapters 372-373: Serial Bomber Case&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> ==== Yusaku and Yukiko Kudo ====<br /> {{main|Kudo family}}<br /> [[Yusaku Kudo|Yusaku]] and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] Kudo are both aware that [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] is in fact Shinichi. His parents are even more famous than he is, with Yusaku being a famous mystery novelist and Yukiko being a retired actress who remains partially involved in the industry. They currently live in the United States and travel extensively, having left Shinichi in Japan on his own when he was fourteen. Though he sometimes finds his parents' carefree ways to be annoying, he loves them dearly. Yusaku is also a detective with the same keen eye for details, and similarly to Holmes' brother Mycroft, Yusaku always seems to solve a case one step ahead of his son.<br /> <br /> ==== Hiroshi Agasa ====<br /> Although not related by blood, there is a strong family-like bond between Shinichi and [[Hiroshi Agasa]]. Agasa was the first to know about Shinichi's shrunk predicament and was the one to tell him to keep it a secret. Most of the gadgets that Shinichi has were made by Agasa to help Shinichi catch the criminals and solve the cases as Conan. He also knows about Shinichi's romantic relationship with Ran and sometimes teases him about it in front of her (when Shinichi can't do anything about it since he is Conan).<br /> <br /> ==== Heiji Hattori ====<br /> When they first meet, Conan and [[Heiji Hattori|Heiji]] seem bound to become lifelong rivals, especially after Kudo beats Heiji in their first case. Even though Heiji discovers Shinichi's secret, he decides to keep quiet (though he often slips up and calls him Kudo in front of others). After Heiji realizes the truth, the two have become best friends, and consult one another on cases, developments concerning the Black Organization, and even their &quot;girlfriends&quot;. They have solved many cases together, and Heiji is the person Shinichi turns to for advice or for confirmation regarding a deduction. Heiji has, on several occasions, declared himself to be Shinichi's best friend or brother. <br /> <br /> Heiji still maintains some of his original feelings of rivalry, and gets annoyed if anyone claims Shinichi is better (or even equal), and will often go to great lengths to show that the &quot;west&quot; (Osaka) is better than the &quot;east&quot; (Tokyo). Shinichi usually starts off acting like he is disinterested in the frivolous competition, but may then become competitive himself if Heiji starts &quot;winning&quot; or someone bruises his ego. Others, like Ran and Kazuha, see them both as equally skilled detectives.<br /> In canon, Heiji is also seen piggybacking Conan, as Conan has shrunken and cannot run as fast as Hattori.<br /> <br /> ==== Sonoko Suzuki ====<br /> [[File:EP490 12.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Shinichi and Sonoko.]]<br /> Sonoko and Shinichi have known each other since childhood. Sonoko finds Shinichi's obsession with mysteries annoying and considers him to be an arrogant showoff.{{citation needed}} That being said, she acknowledges his knowledge and intelligence. Sonoko enjoys teasing him about his relationship with Ran, calling them husband and wife or boyfriend / girlfriend. Shinichi finds her attempts at attracting boys to be rather irritating. Sonoko is one of the few people who calls Shinichi by his first name with honorofic kun. Shinichi also calls Sonoko by her first name without including any honorific. Sonoko would sometimes send Shinichi photographs of important moments including Ran; for example when Kogoro was acquitted, Sonoko was about to take a photo of the reunion between Ran, Kisaki, and Kogoro to send to Shinichi but was interrupted when the electricity shuts down (Zero The Enforcer) and during 'The Scarlet School Trip' when Ran was talking with Okita Soshi away from the group. Although Sonoko would sometimes tease Ran and tell him to forget about Shinichi, she supports the relationship between the two.<br /> <br /> === Detective Boys ===<br /> So far, Shinichi did not canonically meet the detective boys before becoming Conan. In the non-canonical animated special, [[Magic File 2: The Case of the Mysterious Wall and the Black Lab|OVA Magic File 2]], four years prior to him becoming Conan, a thirteen-year-old Shinichi came across the Detective Boys, [[Genta Kojima|Genta]], [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]], and [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]], while they were still three years old. He needed their help in confirming a client's alibi. Also, in the first live action drama and the first episode of the anime&lt;ref&gt;The anime was altered to introduce the Detective Boys early. In the manga they met after Shinichi became Conan.&lt;/ref&gt;, the Detective Boys are seen sneaking into Tropical Land for treasure. Ran then says, pointing to the children, &quot;It was like that last time, huh?&quot; to Shinichi.<br /> <br /> ==== Ai Haibara ====<br /> {{main|Conan Edogawa and Ai Haibara}}<br /> Both are de-aged by APTX4869 and have almost equal levels of intelligence, which makes [[Ai Haibara]] and Conan close confidants and more empathetic with each other than most other characters. They share an interesting relationship. They believe and rely on each other. She certainly has no qualms about teasing him, and is more than willing to poke a hole in his ego. While Conan initially was disgusted by Ai's ties to the Black Organization, especially with how she introduced herself, seeing her remorse and pain has improved his opinion of her. He is repeatedly protective of her and tries to give her hope when her fear of the men in black is overwhelming.<br /> <br /> === Law enforcement ===<br /> ==== Juzo Megure ====<br /> [[Juzo Megure|Inspector Megure]] has worked together with Shinichi to solve many cases. During Shinichi's [[The Locked Room in the Sky: Shinichi Kudo's First Case|first case on the plane]], Megure mentions that he has not seen him since he was in his 6th year of Elementary school. Megure seemed irritated that Shinichi was poking his nose into a murder case. Since then, because Shinichi has proven himself solving cases one after the other, Megure has grown to respect Shinichi and his deductive abilities, thanking him for his assistance.<br /> <br /> === Others ===<br /> ==== Kaitou Kid ====<br /> Despite the fact [[Toichi Kuroba|Toichi]] and Shinichi only met once prior to Toichi's death, it's worth mentioning that Toichi referred to Shinichi as his &quot;older brother&quot; and himself as the &quot;younger brother&quot;. This is because Yusaku created and thus was the '''father''' of the moniker [[Kaitou Kid|Kaitou '''Kid''']], Toichi's secret identity. Toichi's son and successor, [[Kaito Kuroba|Kaito]], has also only crossed paths with Shinichi as Shinichi once, during the [[The Gathering of the Detectives! Kudo Shinichi vs. Kaitou Kid|Clocktower heist]]. Kaito thought Shinichi made the heist harder (and thus less boring) in [[Saguru Hakuba]]'s absence, and Shinichi found Kid's intention of 'stealing' the Clocktower in order to save it from demolition to be fairly admirable. Notably, neither of them saw the other's face. <br /> <br /> In their next encounter, however, after Shinichi had become Conan, Kid disguised himself as Ran in order to steal the Suzuki Black Star pearl. When Conan cornered him on the Suzuki cruise ship, Kid suggested that he'd stolen all of Ran's clothes to impersonate her, and left her naked on the deck. While this ended up being a bluff, Conan was shocked and infuriated. In subsequent encounters between Kid and Conan, Conan displays a much more intense desire to capture Kid. In several instances he appears to be able to 'sense' Kid's presence; knowing Kid is close by often causes Conan to behave far more frenetically. However, in several instances, beginning with the &quot;Big Adventure in the Eccentric Residence&quot; case, when Kid does Conan/Shinichi a favor, such as saving Genta's life in the aforementioned case, Conan reciprocates by halting his investigation just shy of capturing Kid, thereby allowing him to escape unhindered.<br /> <br /> == People who know Conan's real identity ==<br /> {{main|List of characters who know Conan's identity}}<br /> There are only a few characters in the series who know Conan's real identity and none have betrayed Conan's identity to date. The main characters to know the secret are [[Hiroshi Agasa]], Conan's parents, [[Heiji Hattori]] and [[Ai Haibara]]. [[Vermouth]] also knows, but she has kept it a secret from the rest of the Organization to protect Shinichi because he had [[Vermouth timeline#Golden Apple Case .28Manga: 350-354.2C Anime: 286-288.29|saved her life in New York]]. &lt;br&gt;[[Eisuke Hondou]], the younger brother of C.I.A. agent [[Hidemi Hondou]], also knows and keeps Conan's secret.&lt;br&gt;[[Kaitou Kid]] was first aware of Conan's identity in the movies, showing up as Shinichi in the third movie to protect Conan's identity, making it non-canon. Canonically however, File 1018 implies that Kaito is aware of Conan's secret, as he addresses Conan and Heiji as &quot;the high-school detectives&quot;. [[Ran]] gets suspicious on occasion, but so far Conan has managed to trick her into thinking Conan and Shinichi are two different people. Also, [[Subaru Okiya]] has seen Conan use Shinichi's voice with his bowtie voice modifier. Since Subaru Okiya is actually [[Shuichi Akai]] in disguise, this means that Akai knows about it as well.<br /> <br /> == Character popularity ==<br /> * In a ''Newtype'' poll from 2001, Shinichi ranked fourth in the category &quot;Top 10 Most Popular Male Anime Characters in Japan.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2001-08-12/newtype-top-10-anime|title=Newtype top 10 Anime|date=2001-08-12|publisher=Anime News Network|accessdate=2009-06-29}}&lt;/ref&gt; In a ''Newtype Magazine'' poll from March 2010, Shinichi was voted as the ninth most popular male anime character from the 1990's.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite journal|journal=Newtype, Issue 4|month=March|year=2010|publisher=Kadokawa Shoten|title=NT Research}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * In the survey &quot;Friendship&quot; developed by rankingjapan.com in which people had to choose what anime character they would like to have as a friend, Shinichi ranked third.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2007-02-28/which-anime-character-do-you-wish-you-could-be-friends-with|title=Which Anime Character Do You Wish You Could Be Friends With?|date=2007-02-28|publisher=Anime News Network|accessdate=2009-06-29}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * eBookJapan held a character popularity poll from April 12, 2011 to May 12, 2011 in which readers of Detective Conan (international included) could vote for their favorite character.

Gosho said Shinichi's hairstyle was designed in about one minute. He smoothed [[Yaiba]]'s hair and added a tuft modeled after the apostrophe hairstyle of Kabu from [[Wikipedia: Sally the Witch|Sally the Witch]]. The tuft on hair on the top of Shinichi's head comes from the character Shichimi in [[Wikipedia: Niji Iro Tōgarashi|Niji Iro Tōgarashi]].

While on a date with his childhood friend (later girlfriend) [[Ran Mouri]], Shinichi encounters [[Gin|two]] [[Vodka|men]] from a [[Black Organization|secret criminal organization]] who force feed him [[APTX 4869|a strange poison]] that causes his body to shrink back to first grade age. Shinichi takes up the alias '''[[Conan Edogawa]]''' and plans to use his immense skill as a detective to make Ran's [[Kogoro Mouri|bumbling private detective father]] famous in hopes that he will find a case involving the secret organization so he can expose its crimes and acquire an antidote that will turn him back into a teenager.<br /> <br /> Viz romanized his original name as '''Shin'ichi Kudo'''.<br /> <br /> == Background ==<br /> Shinichi is a 16-year old&lt;ref name=&quot;f2&quot;/&gt;&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 15#File 141 - Gone.21.3F|Volume 15, File 141, page 12: &quot;Gone!?&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; (17, according to the anime)&lt;ref name=&quot;e3&quot;/&gt; student at [[Setting#Teitan High School|Teitan High School]] who has become famous for helping the [[Law Enforcement#Tokyo Metropolitan Police|Tokyo police]] solve murder mysteries. Shinichi was born to [[Yusaku Kudo]], a mystery writer, and [[Yukiko Kudo]], a former movie star.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 5#File 049 - An Unfamiliar Visitor|Volume 5, File 49, page 163: &quot;An Unfamiliar Visitor&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> He met Ran when he started in kindergarten and spotted strange things that his father figured out were preparations to kidnap Ran. The kidnapping was foiled, and Ran and Shinichi formed a friendship when Shinichi defended her from the bullies.<br /> <br /> At some point Both Ran and Shinichi with Ran's parents once visited one of Yoshiro Kinoshita show and took a picture with him.&lt;ref&gt;File 131&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> The story begins when Shinichi takes his childhood friend [[Ran Mouri]] to a theme park, [[Tropical Land]], to celebrate her victory in a recent karate championship. During the course of their visit, Shinichi ends up solving [[Roller Coaster Murder Case|a murder case]]. He separates from Ran to follow a man in black, [[Vodka]], who was blackmailing a company president. He didn't notice when another man in black, [[Gin]], sneak up behind him and knocks him out with a baseball bat. Gin decides to test an experimental untraceable poison, [[APTX 4869]], on Shinichi to ensure that his death couldn't be traced back to them. However, instead of killing Shinichi, a rare side-effect occurs: his body shrinks into that of his six-year-old self.&lt;ref name=&quot;f2&quot;/&gt;<br /> <br /> === Conan Edogawa ===<br /> {{main|Conan Edogawa}}<br /> After escaping from well-meaning but skeptical park security, with nowhere else to go Shinichi runs home. He there encounters into his next door neighbor and close family friend, [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]]. He convinces Agasa of his identity and head inside [[Setting#Kudo Residence|Shinichi's home]] to discuss the next move. Agasa warns him that he must keep his identity secret because the [[Black Organization]] will kill him and others associated with him should they discover the truth.&lt;ref name=&quot;e2&quot;&gt;[[Company President's Daughter Kidnapping Case]].&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> [[Image:Shinichi and Conan.jpg|thumb|right|Edogawa Conan, the shrunken Shinichi]]<br /> <br /> Ran arrives to find out what happened to Shinichi, which forces him to come up with the alias Conan Edogawa from [[Arthur Conan Doyle|Arthur '''''Conan''''' Doyle]] and [[Rampo Edogawa|Rampo '''''Edogawa''''']] and he pretends to be a distant relative of Agasa's, who places Conan in Ran's care.&lt;ref name=&quot;e2&quot;/&gt; Ran's father, [[Kogoro Mouri]], owns a [[Setting#Mouri Detective Agency|Detective Agency]], which will allow Conan to run into cases involving the Black Organization. He occasionally uses Kogoro, and Agasa, among others as a mouthpiece to solve crimes while searching for how to get his body back.<br /> <br /> In the meantime, to protect his identity he is forced to play the part of a first-year Elementary student, enrolling as a student at [[Teitan Elementary School]]. Three of his classmates, [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]], [[Genta Kojima|Genta]], and [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]], befriend him and pull him into creating the ''[[Detective Boys]]'', &lt;ref&gt;[[The Coded Map of the City Case]]&lt;/ref&gt; after which he tries to keep them out of trouble. Their group is later joined by the creator of APTX 4869, [[Shiho Miyano]], shrunk down and using the alias [[Ai Haibara]].<br /> <br /> Although he mostly uses the Conan alias to solve cases, in some (especially emergency) situations, he uses the Voice-Changing Bowtie to call the police using his original, Shinichi's voice and get involved with cases, which allow him to gain the authority that Conan lacks. In the aftermath; however, Shinichi requests his identity not to be revealed to the public, a clear contrast to his earlier attention-seeking behavior before turning to Conan.<br /> <br /> == Personality ==<br /> At the beginning of the series, Shinichi is already well-known as a brilliant young detective, the &quot;Savior of the police force&quot;, for solving many difficult cases the professionals could not.&lt;ref name=&quot;e1&quot;&gt;[[Roller Coaster Murder Case|Episode 1: Roller Coaster Murder Case]].&lt;/ref&gt; He is extremely intelligent, and even from a young age was very intuitive and observant. Due to the influence of his father and the general laissez-faire environment at home, he has long been an incessant and persistent reader, especially of mystery novels.&lt;ref name=&quot;f569&quot;&gt;[[Volume 55#File 569 - The Mischievous Boy|Volume 55, Files 569-572: &quot;The Mischievous Boy&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; His father, Yusaku started taking Shinichi to crime scenes as a child, which inspired him to be a detective.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 21#File 205 - Midair Sealed Chamber|Volume 21, File 205, pages 74-78: &quot;Midair Sealed Chamber&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; Due to his bluntness and matter-of-fact manner, Shinichi can come off as rude and arrogant. However, he cares deeply about human life, unable to understand how any reason could be sufficient motive for murder,&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 26#File 258 - Momentary Rest|Volume 26, File 258, page 71: &quot;Momentary Rest&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; and is convinced that driving a culprit to suicide is no better than murder itself. &lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 16#File 153 - Bonds of Flame|Volume 16, File 153: &quot;Bonds of Flame&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; The few times he has been too late to save a life haunt him throughout the series. He also thinks of other people's feelings, and in some cases he has been willing to conceal facts from certains parties in order spare them from being scarred from the ugly truth.<br /> <br /> Prior to his transformation, Shinichi enjoyed being in the spotlight and was rather arrogant, reveling in making local headlines and receiving fan-mail. Throughout the series, Shinichi's predicament causes him to gain a sense of humility. Shinichi still keeps his flair for the dramatic (like his mother) that can be seen every time he sets out a deduction in pieces building to a climax.<br /> <br /> Despite his popularity with the masses and his schoolmates, Shinichi has very few close friends. He is close to Ran and Agasa, and after deaging, he befriended Heiji, Haibara, and to some extent the other Detective Boys. Another reason for his lack of close friends was because his arrogant personality was a negative turn-off to many of his classmates and even teachers, making it hard to befriend him. Even with his close friends (one being older than him), Shinichi doesn't hesitate to call them &quot;idiot&quot;, instead of calmly explaining his reason for doing or not doing something, sometimes causing arguments between him and Ran.<br /> <br /> Shinichi also had a tendency, since elementary school, to have an air of being the &quot;distant, cool guy&quot;. While he is a truly good and heroic individual, he doesn't make it known to others that obviously, and will make some &quot;deductive reasoning&quot; for why he did such a thing. His insensitive nature is also horrible, which was shown most prominently during the Holmes' Revelation Arc, when Ran started crying because she believed that Shinichi not telling her he was in London meant that he was indifferent to her feelings for him. However, instead of trying to comfort her, Shinichi repeatedly asked her about the [[Yukiko Kudo|strange woman]] she met, and told her to pull herself together.<br /> <br /> Shinichi was ready to confess his feelings during the Roller Coaster Murder Case but due to Ran's teasing, he didn't. After turning into Conan and knowing that Ran loved him, whenever he turned back into Shinichi, he would try to confess his feelings for her but the antidote running out would foil his attempts. He was successfully able to convey his feelings in London.<br /> <br /> The reason behind Shinichi's desensitization towards violent and brutal crime scenes is because his father would take him to crime scenes as a child.<br /> <br /> Shinichi is also quite fearless not scaring of threatening by guns or surrounding by fire, he also doesn't believe in supernatural like magic or abnormal creatures and believes there is always an explanation for it, he was also fearless as a child.<br /> <br /> == Appearance ==<br /> Shinichi is an above-average height Japanese teenager with a light-complexion, pale skin and a thin yet athletic build. He has blue eyes and short dark brown/black hair with a cowlick in front and distinctive tuft in the back. Shinichi bears a striking resemblance to his father, [[Yusaku Kudo]] albeit a less defined jawline and minus his father's mustache. Often, he is well-noted as very handsome as he became very popular with the girls around his age, regularly getting love letters, which has only grown since becoming a famous detective. Shinichi often appears in his high school uniform, but he also wears a suit and tie or regular clothing depending on the occasion. When Conan turns back into Shinichi by using [[baijiu]] or the [[Prototype antidote|prototype antidote]], Shinichi will wear whatever appropriately sized clothing he can find at the time.<br /> <br /> == Skills ==<br /> :''See also: [[Conan Edogawa#Skills|Conan's Skills]]''<br /> === Intelligence ===<br /> Consistently, Shinichi has proven himself to be a very sharp-witted and calculating individual. While only in high school, his passion mysterious have lead him to be a very well-read to showcase advanced knowledge and understanding in a myriad of subjects, which he can methodically use to aid him in investigations. His detective skills often earns him comparisons to [[Sherlock Holmes]]. Shinichi has acquired various nicknames because of his prowess, such as the &quot;[[Wikipedia: Heisei|Heisei]] Holmes&quot; and the &quot;Detective of the East&quot;. He has a keen eye for details, and can spot any unusual aspects in a case that most people tend to miss or not take into account. He has a keen understanding for criminal psychology, occasionally being able to sense if someone is the true criminal. He can also predict movement and plan of the criminals, and in some cases, he used this skill to &quot;bluff&quot;. By deliberately giving wrong deduction, he managed to make the criminal reveal the key evidence of the case, confess, abandon suicide's attempt, or lead them to the wrong ends. He repeatedly demonstrates an eidetic memory and perfect recall, able to recount every aspect from the situation he has placed himself in. Shinichi's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony, and using astute logic he uncovers the reasons behind those inconsistencies in order to link them to the crime. Shinichi has extraordinarily broad and deep knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases. Few people are able to match wits with him, including [[Heiji Hattori]] and [[Kaito Kuroba]], while only his father, [[Yusaku Kudo]], has shown able consistently proven himself to far surpass his son, both solving mysterious well-before Shinichi and even regularly tricking his on for &quot;tests&quot;.<br /> <br /> === Language ===<br /> Besides his native language, Shinichi is fluent in English, as seen when he solved a case in London without evidence of any language barrier.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 21#File 205 - Midair Sealed Chamber|Volume 21, File 205: &quot;Midair Sealed Chamber&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;f743&quot;&gt;[[Volume 71#File 743 - Holmes' Apprentice|Volumes 71-72, Files 743-752: &quot;Holmes' Apprentice&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; Shinichi also knows some German,&lt;ref&gt;[[Genta's Certain Kill Shot]]&lt;/ref&gt; and Italian.&lt;ref&gt;[[The Coded Map of the City Case]]&lt;/ref&gt; Shinichi seems to understand &quot;Girl Writing&quot;, due to the fact that he had solved an e-mail cipher of a 2nd year high school girl quickly.&lt;ref&gt;[[Secret of the Russian Blue]]&lt;/ref&gt; <br /> <br /> === Athletic ability ===<br /> [[File:Shinichi playing soccer 4 years ago.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Shinichi playing soccer in middle school.]]<br /> Like his intelligence, Shinichi also has an amazing athletic ability. Shinichi is an extremely skilled soccer player, having been professionally scouted while only in middle school, but he chooses to stay at the amateur level. He initially played to hone his reflexes and coordination as he often juggles a ball to clear his mind, but he is also an enthusiastic fan of the sport in its own right.&lt;ref name=&quot;e1&quot;/&gt; While naturally right-handed and right-footed, Shinichi trained himself to be ambidextrous, being just as efficient with either hand or foot. Against criminals, his signature technique is launching various objects with superb precision from his kick to knock the foe out. Shinichi's kick is accurate over long distances and he is capable of mentally reckoning the angle of impact necessary to rebound a soccer ball off a wall and strike an attacker from behind. He is also good at skiing, snowboarding, and ice-skating. Likewise, on a skateboard he can easily perform very complicated tricks and dodges with his skateboard at high speed.<br /> <br /> Aside from sports, Shinichi exhibits a knack and impeccable accuracy for handling firearms due to his father taking him to shooting ranges from time to time. During the Clocktower Heist, Shinichi is able to shoot and dislodge the support beam of a giant projection screen with a single shot from a moving helicopter. Additionally, in [[The Fourteenth Target]], as Conan, he shot a bullet at Ran's leg with such precision, that while it rendered her unable to walk to force the criminal to let her go, but afterwards her leg healed cleanly with no lingering signs or damage. Between his natural aim and coordination, he can likewise hit his target shooting darts like in [[The Detective Boys Get Out of the Rain]], when he throws them to a giant [[Gomera]] puppet so it can fall on the culprit.<br /> <br /> Shinichi is nimble as well as strong. He is capable of considerable acrobatics, jumping great distances and swinging from tree to tree to escape onlookers.&lt;ref&gt;[[Murderer, Shinichi Kudo|Shiragami case]]&lt;/ref&gt; While never as passionate about it as Ran, Shinichi is also well-trained in karate and judo, having learned alongside Ran and watching her compete.&lt;ref&gt;Manga Volume 1, File 1; Anime episode 1 and [[Episode One: The Great Detective Turned Small]].&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;Manga Volume 1, File 5 ; Anime episode 2.&lt;/ref&gt; He has shown remarkable flexibility and precision in his kicks, noted for having an especially good roundhouse kick. While it is unclear where his skill compares to Ran, he can effortlessly dodge a kicking assault from an angry Ran, something very few have ever managed. How does however openly acknowledge Ran as stronger than him. With his proficiency, as seen in [[Murderer, Shinichi Kudo|Shiragami Case]], he disarms the culprit trying to commit suicide, and even against the expert judo practitioner Kogoro, in [[Drama Episode 13]], he avoided Kogoro and take him down as he tries to hurt him.<br /> <br /> === Music ===<br /> Shinichi cannot sing on key in the slightest so he is often accused of being [[Wikipedia:tone deaf|tone deaf]]. Despite being a hilariously awful singer, Shinichi has [[Wikipedia:perfect pitch|perfect pitch]] and can identify notes accurately even in difficult contexts like the sound of phone button presses forming a melody.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 15#File 144 - Their Voices Are Alike!?|Volume 15, File 144: &quot;Their Voices Are Alike!?&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; Also, he can replicate and sing dial tones for a phone, showing that the reason he can't sing is because he simply doesn't have ''relative'' pitch. Like his favorite detective, Sherlock Holmes, he plays the violin. This was confirmed in [[Full Score of Fear]], when he played &quot;Amazing Grace&quot; for Ran. However, he is stumped on what Ran meant when she said, &quot;He has a funny habit when he plays.&quot;<br /> <br /> === Other skills ===<br /> He has remarkable intuition, able to tell when people are spying on him and if they are hiding something. He can defuse a bomb effortlessly without external instruction. Shinichi has repeatedly dispensed first aid to stabbed/shot/cardiac/poisoned/hurt victims before the rescuers arrive. He is also shown able to read lips.&lt;ref&gt;[[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie]]&lt;/ref&gt; Having seemingly inherited his mother's acting talent, he can seamlessly change his persona, as seen from his longstanding deception of the carefree child Conan. He is skilled in impersonation, able to mimic other people's voices, once pretending to be Heji, however he can have some difficultly changing his dialect. He has skills in computer programming and hacking, however they are inferior Haibara's, regularly relying on her to help out; he was not able to crack Black Organization's encrypted data. In non-canon movie 2 he was able to pilot a helicopter as he had been training with a simulator since he was a kid. In non-canon movie 5 he was able to drive a car.<br /> <br /> == Appellations ==<br /> &lt;tabs jsId=&quot;nicknames&quot;&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Protagonists&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Shinichi Kudo}}<br /> {{appellations|Conan Edogawa|Shinichi-niichan &lt;br&gt;

However, Conan is frequently shown calling Ran using his voice-changing bow tie to sound like Shinichi and sending/receiving text messages from her with &quot;Shinichi's&quot; phone. In these instances, it can be said that the character of Shinichi, albeit in the body of Conan, is appearing, since these phone conversations and text messages allow Shinichi to be himself, however briefly. The below instances however, are actual appearances of Shinichi as well as flashbacks from before the series began. <br /> <br /> === Transformation into Conan ===<br /> ==== Roller Coaster Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 1|001-002]], Anime: [[Roller Coaster Murder Case|001]]) ====<br /> [[Image:Shinichi appears.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Shinichi appears to correct Hattori's deduction]] Shinichi starts as himself in the Roller coaster murder case, but by the end he has been transformed into Conan, thus beginning the series' plot. Since then, Conan has temporarily turned back to Shinichi several times.<br /> <br /> === Transformations back into Shinichi ===<br /> ==== Great Detective of the West (Manga: [[Volume 10|092-095]], Anime: [[Diplomat Murder Case|048-049]]) ====<br /> Shinichi's next real appearance after shrinking is when a strange detective from Osaka named [[Heiji Hattori]] arrives at Mouri Detective Agency looking for Shinichi in order to determine which of them is the better detective. A strange combination of having a cold and drinking the [[baijiu]] that Heiji had brought along allows Conan to briefly grow into Shinichi once again.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 10#File 092 - The Great Detective Of The West|Volume 10, Files 92-96: &quot;The Great Detective Of The West&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; However, the transformation quickly wears off and he develops an immunity to the alcohol and cannot replicate the transformation.<br /> <br /> ==== The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume 26|254-260]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188-193]]) ====<br /> Conan is able to become Shinichi using an [[Prototype antidote|antidote]] that [[Ai Haibara]] synthesized. As himself, he tries to surprise Ran by disguising himself as a character in her play, but is interrupted by a murder case and ends up revealing himself to his entire high school. [[Heiji Hattori]] covers for him and Shinichi is able to spend about 48 hours as himself, albeit with a brief collapse about halfway through. He turns back into Conan just as he seems to be about to confess his feelings to Ran.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 26#File 254 - An Infatuated Heart|Volume 26, Files 254-260: &quot;An Infatuated Heart&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> ==== The Murderer is Shinichi Kudo (Manga: [[Volume 62|646-651]], Anime: [[Murderer, Shinichi Kudo|521-523]]) ====<br /> Shinichi's next appearance is not until when, while on a case with Heiji, Conan goes missing and 'Shinichi' seems to appear. The 'Shinichi' is actually someone who had gotten plastic surgery to look like Shinichi Kudo, and is actually trying to blame Shinichi for a murder. The real Shinichi hides in the forest until he can clear his name. Shinichi had been temporarily restored by another of Haibara's prototypes, but this time by accident; Agasa mistakenly gave them to Shinichi thinking they were cold medicine.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 62#File 646 - Village of Animosity|Volume 62, Files 646-651: &quot;Village of Animosity&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; After the case is solved Shinichi transforms back to Conan, but luckily, Haibara secretly followed him there and gives him another antidote, saving him from revealing his identity to Kogoro, Ran and Kazuha. While driving home from the case, the group is stopped by another murder which Shinichi and Heiji investigate together, despite increasing pangs that warn of his imminent reversion to Conan. After the case is resolved, Ran tries to stop Shinichi from leaving, saying she has something to tell him. Shinichi stops her, saying &quot;According to my deductions, what you have to say and what I have to say are the same thing.&quot; Ran seizes his hand while he is transforming back into Conan, and though Haibara knocks her out with Conan's wristwatch, she refuses to let go of his hand. Haibara and [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] have to cut and re-pin Conan's shirt onto him because Ran is still clutching his hand and he refuses to pull out of her grip.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 62#File 652 - The Thing She Really Wants to Ask|Volumes 62-63, Files 652-654: &quot;The Thing She Really Wants to Ask&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> ==== Holmes' Revelation (Manga: [[Volume 71|743-751]], Anime: [[Holmes' Revelation|616-621]]) ====<br /> Conan, Ran, and Kogoro are invited to England by a rich, elite British woman, Diana Kingstone, after Kogoro finds her cat under the table in Café Poirot. However, since 'Conan Edogawa' doesn't have the proper credentials to fly internationally, Ai gives him a prototype pill so that Shinichi and Agasa can fly low-profile to England on the same plane that Ran and Kogoro are flying. Ai provides a second prototype pill for the return journey, but Conan uses it while Ran was pursuing him in London. During that trip, Shinichi answers Ran's hurt feelings over his behavior with the fact that he cares for her and that he likes her; unfortunately, before she could respond or confess in kind, Shinichi has to vanish and becomes Conan again. Luckily for Conan, Shinichi's parents appear because Ai had expected him to use the second pill, and they provide him with an extra antidote to let Conan return to Japan. &lt;ref name=&quot;f743&quot; /&gt;<br /> <br /> ==== Kyoto School Trip Case (Manga: [[Volume 94|1000-1005]], Anime: [https://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/The_Scarlet_School_Trip 927-928]) ====<br /> Shinichi returns to his real body to take part in the field trip of his school to Kyoto. Shinichi meets an old friend of his mother and through her gets involved in a serial murder case among her and her famous movie friends. After the case was solved, jealousy led Shinichi to ask Ran how she feels about him, since she never formally replied to his confession in London. Ran responds by kissing him on the cheek. Shinichi wants to go in for a full kiss after that, but before they can do it, the antidote wears off and Shinichi has to leave. He later thanks Ran for her reply via text message, making her happy and forget his rushed exit. <br /> <br /> Although Shinichi asked the police to keep his involvement in the case secret again, rumours about high school detectives helping in the case spread quickly through the internet, with one poster mentioning seeing Shinichi in Kyoto, which doesn't go unnoticed by [[Hyoue Kuroda]] and [[Kanenori Wakita]]. The rumours then rapidly evolve into another media frenzy around Shinichi's person.<br /> <br /> === Flashback appearances ===<br /> ==== Shinichi's first case (Manga: [[Volume 21|204-207]], Anime: [[The Locked Room in the Sky: Shinichi Kudo's First Case|162]]) ====<br /> One year ago, Shinichi solved his first case by himself on a plane flying to Los Angeles.&lt;!--they took a second plane to NY as explained in NY flashback--&gt; <br /> <br /> ==== Golden Apple (Manga: [[Volume 34|350]]-[[Volume 35|354]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|286-288]]) ====<br /> One year ago, Shinichi, [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], and [[Yukiko Kudo|his mother]] went to New York City to see the play &quot;Golden Apple&quot;. There, they encountered [[Vermouth|Sharon Vineyard]] and [[Shuichi Akai]].<br /> <br /> ==== Heiji's Memories (Manga: [[Volume 50|518-521]], Anime: [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|490]]) ====<br /> During a call to Conan, Heiji talks about a brilliant detective kid he met at a skiing trip during middle school, 3 years ago. That kid was actually Shinichi, who he competed with to solve the mystery.<br /> <br /> ==== Challenge from the original Kaitou Kid (Manga: [[Volume 55|570-573]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's Childhood Adventure|472-473]]) ====<br /> A flashback revealed that 10 years ago, as first-graders, Shinichi and Ran had been given a riddle by the original [[Kaitou Kid]], [[Toichi Kuroba]].<br /> <br /> ==== Memories of Light Blue (Manga: [[Volume 83|882]]-[[Volume 84|884]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo Aquarium Case|772-773]]) ====<br /> During an aquarium visit with Conan and the Detective Boys, Ran remembers going to the aquarium with Shinichi almost a year ago. After solving a murder case there, it is revealed how Shinichi came to promise Ran [[Volume 1#Prologue - Roller Coaster Murder Case|their trip to Tropical Land]].<br /> <br /> ==== Ran GIRL/Shinichi BOY (Manga: [[Volume 87|921-924]], Anime: [[Memories from Sakura Class|853-854]]) ====<br /> 13 years ago Ran and Shinichi meet for the first time in pre-school.<br /> <br /> ==== Chance Meeting at the Beach (Manga: [[Volume 92#A Chance Meeting at the Beach|972-974]], Anime: [[The Wizard of the Ripples|881-882]]) ====<br /> 10 years ago Shinichi and Ran encounter the [[Akai family]] at the beach.<br /> <br /> == Non-canon plot overview ==<br /> === Transformations back into Shinichi ===<br /> ==== Movie 7: [[Crossroad in the Ancient Capital]] ====<br /> Heiji was injured and Kazuha kidnapped; her abductors threatened to kill her unless Heiji showed up for her. Believing Heiji to be unable to do so, Conan contacted Ai and asked if there was any way for him to briefly become Heiji. Ai gave him medicine to simulate the effects of a cold, then he drank some [[Baijiu]] which had changed him in his and Heiji's first manga appearance. Conan became Shinichi for approximately an hour, but according to Ai he was extremely weak and sick for the entire time.<br /> <br /> ==== OVA 9: [[The Stranger from Ten Years Later]] ====<br /> Conan takes another prototype antidote. However, it proves less effective than the prototype he used during the Desperate Revival arc; Conan became Shinichi, but only for a few hours, and remained in a feverish state, unable to wake up until he had reverted back to Conan. During his time unconscious, he had a vivid hallucination that he had grown to age 17 again as Conan and that Ran, aged 27, was about to marry [[Tomoaki Araide]].<br /> <br /> ==== Live action special 2 ====<br /> {{main|Shinichi Kudo Returns! Confrontation with the Black Organization}}<br /> <br /> === Flashback Appearances ===<br /> ==== Kaitou Kid's Clock Tower Heist (Manga: [[Magic Kaito Volume 4#Black Star|MK 23-24]], Anime: [[The Gathering of the Detectives!

Episode One.png|thumb|right|200px|Shinichi and Ran (Scene from [[Episode One: The Great Detective Turned Small|Episode one]].)]]<br /> ==== Ran Mouri ====<br /> {{main|Shinichi Kudo and Ran Mouri}}<br /> [[Ran Mouri]] is Shinichi's childhood friend and canonical love interest. They have been friends and playmates since kindergarten&lt;ref name=&quot;f569&quot;/&gt;&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 11#File 107 - The Two Mysteries|Volume 11, File 107: &quot;The Two Mysteries&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;, though Shinichi's tendency to drag Ran along into minor trouble caused some censure from [[Eri Kisaki|her mother]]. Shinichi has liked Ran since they were little. It was revealed when he is in the first year of middle school, and turned down any other potential love interests as a result, but she has never realized this.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 18#File 175 - Unlock Your Heart!?|Volume 18, File 175, page 92: &quot;Unlock Your Heart!?&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; Shinichi was similarly oblivious to Ran's regard until Ran confessed to Conan that despite his faults, which she is well aware of, she has liked Shinichi for some time.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 1#File 002 - The Great Detective Turned Small|Volume 1, File 2, page 64: &quot;The Great Detective Turned Small&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; He is very protective of her, and has been amazed by her various skills and kindness on more than one occasion. Shinichi has since confessed his feelings to Ran in the non-[[canon]] 4th movie 'Captured In Her Eyes' (which Ran mistook as his attempt to get her memories back), and made attempts to say something during temporary cures in the manga and anime, but cases always seem to interfere until the cure runs out. Shinichi since then has finally canonically confessed to Ran in the case in London.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 72#File 752 - A Troublesome and Difficult Case|Volume 72, File 752, page 14: &quot;A Troublesome and Difficult Case&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; Later, Ran kissed Shinichi in the cheek in Kyoto school trip as her answer for his confession in London. Immediately, Shinichi tries to do a full kiss with Ran, only for the antidote's effects to wear off; turning him back into Conan. Shinichi has many times now admitted that Ran is the most important person to him/ the one he loves the most.<br /> <br /> [[File:Shinichi Confesses.jpg|thumb|200px|Shinichi Kudo somewhat and somehow confesses his feelings for [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] to her under the Big Ben in London, during the Holmes' Revelation Arc.]]<br /> Shinichi's initial disappearance troubled Ran to the point of insomnia and nearly going to the police. Since then, Shinichi sometimes calls Ran over the telephone and imitates his normal voice with the [[voice-changing bowtie]] so that she doesn't worry about him. He convinces her that he is off solving a very difficult case and will return once the investigation concludes.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 1#File 009 - An Unfortunate Misunderstanding|Volume 1, File 9, Page 15: &quot;An Unfortunate Misunderstanding&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; In reality, he is the brain behind her father's rapid rise to fame as a detective.<br /> <br /> Shinichi/Conan is not without sexual fantasies regarding Ran, the most obvious evidence being his nosebleeds or blushing when he sees her in a bathing suit&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 83#File 873 - Red Devil|Volume 83, File 873, Page 4: &quot;Red Devil&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;, or when Ran pulled him into an [[wikipedia: onsen|onsen]] with her.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 9#File 084 - Kogoro.27s Class Reunion|Volume 9, File 4: &quot;Kogoro's Class Reunion&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; For her part, Ran often blushes when thinking of Shinichi, especially when Sonoko teases her about their relationship. Her attitude towards Conan is one of more open, sisterly affection, such as giving him hugs or holding his hand. Shinichi has some concerns of bodily harm should Ran realize that not only has he been lying to her, but they've shared a bed and taken a bath together.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 14#File 134 - Question In Dead Leave|Volume 14, File 134, pages 60-67: &quot;Question In Dead Leave&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> Shinichi and Ran appear to share a close empathic link due to their strong feelings for each other, making each of them feel the other's worry and agitation in times of extreme danger.&lt;ref&gt;Manga Chapters 372-373: Serial Bomber Case&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> ==== Yusaku and Yukiko Kudo ====<br /> {{main|Kudo family}}<br /> [[Yusaku Kudo|Yusaku]] and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] Kudo are both aware that [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] is in fact Shinichi. His parents are even more famous than he is, with Yusaku being a famous mystery novelist and Yukiko being a retired actress who remains partially involved in the industry. They currently live in the United States and travel extensively, having left Shinichi in Japan on his own when he was fourteen. Though he sometimes finds his parents' carefree ways to be annoying, he loves them dearly. Yusaku is also a detective with the same keen eye for details, and similarly to Holmes' brother Mycroft, Yusaku always seems to solve a case one step ahead of his son.<br /> <br /> ==== Hiroshi Agasa ====<br /> Although not related by blood, there is a strong family-like bond between Shinichi and [[Hiroshi Agasa]]. Agasa was the first to know about Shinichi's shrunk predicament and was the one to tell him to keep it a secret. Most of the gadgets that Shinichi has were made by Agasa to help Shinichi catch the criminals and solve the cases as Conan. He also knows about Shinichi's romantic relationship with Ran and sometimes teases him about it in front of her (when Shinichi can't do anything about it since he is Conan).<br /> <br /> ==== Heiji Hattori ====<br /> When they first meet, Conan and [[Heiji Hattori|Heiji]] seem bound to become lifelong rivals, especially after Kudo beats Heiji in their first case. Even though Heiji discovers Shinichi's secret, he decides to keep quiet (though he often slips up and calls him Kudo in front of others). After Heiji realizes the truth, the two have become best friends, and consult one another on cases, developments concerning the Black Organization, and even their &quot;girlfriends&quot;. They have solved many cases together, and Heiji is the person Shinichi turns to for advice or for confirmation regarding a deduction. Heiji has, on several occasions, declared himself to be Shinichi's best friend or brother. <br /> <br /> Heiji still maintains some of his original feelings of rivalry, and gets annoyed if anyone claims Shinichi is better (or even equal), and will often go to great lengths to show that the &quot;west&quot; (Osaka) is better than the &quot;east&quot; (Tokyo). Shinichi usually starts off acting like he is disinterested in the frivolous competition, but may then become competitive himself if Heiji starts &quot;winning&quot; or someone bruises his ego. Others, like Ran and Kazuha, see them both as equally skilled detectives.<br /> In canon, Heiji is also seen piggybacking Conan, as Conan has shrunken and cannot run as fast as Hattori.<br /> <br /> ==== Sonoko Suzuki ====<br /> [[File:EP490 12.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Shinichi and Sonoko.]]<br /> Sonoko and Shinichi have known each other since childhood. Sonoko finds Shinichi's obsession with mysteries annoying and considers him to be an arrogant showoff.{{citation needed}} That being said, she acknowledges his knowledge and intelligence. Sonoko enjoys teasing him about his relationship with Ran, calling them husband and wife or boyfriend / girlfriend. Shinichi finds her attempts at attracting boys to be rather irritating. Sonoko is one of the few people who calls Shinichi by his first name with honorofic kun. Shinichi also calls Sonoko by her first name without including any honorific. Sonoko would sometimes send Shinichi photographs of important moments including Ran; for example when Kogoro was acquitted, Sonoko was about to take a photo of the reunion between Ran, Kisaki, and Kogoro to send to Shinichi but was interrupted when the electricity shuts down (Zero The Enforcer) and during 'The Scarlet School Trip' when Ran was talking with Okita Soshi away from the group. Although Sonoko would sometimes tease Ran and tell him to forget about Shinichi, she supports the relationship between the two.<br /> <br /> === Detective Boys ===<br /> So far, Shinichi did not canonically meet the detective boys before becoming Conan. In the non-canonical animated special, [[Magic File 2: The Case of the Mysterious Wall and the Black Lab|OVA Magic File 2]], four years prior to him becoming Conan, a thirteen-year-old Shinichi came across the Detective Boys, [[Genta Kojima|Genta]], [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]], and [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]], while they were still three years old. He needed their help in confirming a client's alibi. Also, in the first live action drama and the first episode of the anime&lt;ref&gt;The anime was altered to introduce the Detective Boys early. In the manga they met after Shinichi became Conan.&lt;/ref&gt;, the Detective Boys are seen sneaking into Tropical Land for treasure. Ran then says, pointing to the children, &quot;It was like that last time, huh?&quot; to Shinichi.<br /> <br /> ==== Ai Haibara ====<br /> {{main|Conan Edogawa and Ai Haibara}}<br /> Both are de-aged by APTX4869 and have almost equal levels of intelligence, which makes [[Ai Haibara]] and Conan close confidants and more empathetic with each other than most other characters. They share an interesting relationship. They believe and rely on each other. She certainly has no qualms about teasing him, and is more than willing to poke a hole in his ego. While Conan initially was disgusted by Ai's ties to the Black Organization, especially with how she introduced herself, seeing her remorse and pain has improved his opinion of her. He is repeatedly protective of her and tries to give her hope when her fear of the men in black is overwhelming.<br /> <br /> === Law enforcement ===<br /> ==== Juzo Megure ====<br /> [[Juzo Megure|Inspector Megure]] has worked together with Shinichi to solve many cases. During Shinichi's [[The Locked Room in the Sky: Shinichi Kudo's First Case|first case on the plane]], Megure mentions that he has not seen him since he was in his 6th year of Elementary school. Megure seemed irritated that Shinichi was poking his nose into a murder case. Since then, because Shinichi has proven himself solving cases one after the other, Megure has grown to respect Shinichi and his deductive abilities, thanking him for his assistance.<br /> <br /> === Others ===<br /> ==== Kaitou Kid ====<br /> Despite the fact [[Toichi Kuroba|Toichi]] and Shinichi only met once prior to Toichi's death, it's worth mentioning that Toichi referred to Shinichi as his &quot;older brother&quot; and himself as the &quot;younger brother&quot;. This is because Yusaku created and thus was the '''father''' of the moniker [[Kaitou Kid|Kaitou '''Kid''']], Toichi's secret identity. Toichi's son and successor, [[Kaito Kuroba|Kaito]], has also only crossed paths with Shinichi as Shinichi once, during the [[The Gathering of the Detectives! Kudo Shinichi vs. Kaitou Kid|Clocktower heist]]. Kaito thought Shinichi made the heist harder (and thus less boring) in [[Saguru Hakuba]]'s absence, and Shinichi found Kid's intention of 'stealing' the Clocktower in order to save it from demolition to be fairly admirable. Notably, neither of them saw the other's face. <br /> <br /> In their next encounter, however, after Shinichi had become Conan, Kid disguised himself as Ran in order to steal the Suzuki Black Star pearl. When Conan cornered him on the Suzuki cruise ship, Kid suggested that he'd stolen all of Ran's clothes to impersonate her, and left her naked on the deck. While this ended up being a bluff, Conan was shocked and infuriated. In subsequent encounters between Kid and Conan, Conan displays a much more intense desire to capture Kid. In several instances he appears to be able to 'sense' Kid's presence; knowing Kid is close by often causes Conan to behave far more frenetically. However, in several instances, beginning with the &quot;Big Adventure in the Eccentric Residence&quot; case, when Kid does Conan/Shinichi a favor, such as saving Genta's life in the aforementioned case, Conan reciprocates by halting his investigation just shy of capturing Kid, thereby allowing him to escape unhindered.<br /> <br /> == People who know Conan's real identity ==<br /> {{main|List of characters who know Conan's identity}}<br /> There are only a few characters in the series who know Conan's real identity and none have betrayed Conan's identity to date. The main characters to know the secret are [[Hiroshi Agasa]], Conan's parents, [[Heiji Hattori]] and [[Ai Haibara]]. [[Vermouth]] also knows, but she has kept it a secret from the rest of the Organization to protect Shinichi because he had [[Vermouth timeline#Golden Apple Case .28Manga: 350-354.2C Anime: 286-288.29|saved her life in New York]]. &lt;br&gt;[[Eisuke Hondou]], the younger brother of C.I.A. agent [[Hidemi Hondou]], also knows and keeps Conan's secret.&lt;br&gt;[[Kaitou Kid]] was first aware of Conan's identity in the movies, showing up as Shinichi in the third movie to protect Conan's identity, making it non-canon. Canonically however, File 1018 implies that Kaito is aware of Conan's secret, as he addresses Conan and Heiji as &quot;the high-school detectives&quot;. [[Ran]] gets suspicious on occasion, but so far Conan has managed to trick her into thinking Conan and Shinichi are two different people. Also, [[Subaru Okiya]] has seen Conan use Shinichi's voice with his bowtie voice modifier. Since Subaru Okiya is actually [[Shuichi Akai]] in disguise, this means that Akai knows about it as well.<br /> <br /> == Character popularity ==<br /> * In a ''Newtype'' poll from 2001, Shinichi ranked fourth in the category &quot;Top 10 Most Popular Male Anime Characters in Japan.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2001-08-12/newtype-top-10-anime|title=Newtype top 10 Anime|date=2001-08-12|publisher=Anime News Network|accessdate=2009-06-29}}&lt;/ref&gt; In a ''Newtype Magazine'' poll from March 2010, Shinichi was voted as the ninth most popular male anime character from the 1990's.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite journal|journal=Newtype, Issue 4|month=March|year=2010|publisher=Kadokawa Shoten|title=NT Research}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * In the survey &quot;Friendship&quot; developed by rankingjapan.com in which people had to choose what anime character they would like to have as a friend, Shinichi ranked third.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2007-02-28/which-anime-character-do-you-wish-you-could-be-friends-with|title=Which Anime Character Do You Wish You Could Be Friends With?|date=2007-02-28|publisher=Anime News Network|accessdate=2009-06-29}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * eBookJapan held a character popularity poll from April 12, 2011 to May 12, 2011 in which readers of Detective Conan (international included) could vote for their favorite character.

He is also a world famous novelist and the creator of the popular [[Night Baron]] series.<br /> <br /> == Background ==<br /> [[File:Young Yusaku.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Young Yusaku.]]<br /> Yusaku Kudo was already noted for his sharp intellect and deductive abilities at a young age. He met Inspector Juzo Megure and became a good friend and valuable adviser to him in solving very difficult cases.&lt;ref name=&quot;Call&quot;&gt;Manga Chapter 204: The Initial Call&lt;/ref&gt; While he often assisted the police, Yusaku's primary aspiration was that of a writer. Quickly attracting acclaim in his early twenties as a young novelist, he encountered the girl whom he resolved to marry: [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko Fujimine]], an already famed and beautiful actress. While taking her out in an expensive restaurant to make his proposal, he was involved in a murder case which he solved brilliantly, and right afterward proposed to a startled Yukiko - which she accepted (twenty years later, his son [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] would become involved in a follow-up of the exact same case in the exact same restaurant, but unlike Yusaku he wouldn't be able to profess his feelings to his own love, [[Ran Mouri]]).&lt;ref&gt;Manga Chapter 260: The Memorable Place&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> Yusaku's detective stories have won international acclaim, especially his novels involving the character called Night Baron, who has become a popular cultural item. He prefers to be known as a novelist, despite multiple demonstrations of a Mycroftian tendency to solve a case before Shinichi reaches the same conclusions (as in the OVA where Shinichi was trying to prove the alibi involving, supposedly, a black labrador dog). In the course of his career, he also encountered the first [[Toichi Kuroba|Kaitou Kid]] and struck a sort of competitive friendship with him; it is implied that Yusaku knew Kid's identity, but chose to chase Kid only during heists in order to foil the theft and no further.&lt;ref name=&quot;Code&quot;&gt;Manga Chapter 573: Setting Sun&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> After Shinichi becomes Conan, Yusaku learns from [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]] what occurred, and stages an elaborate false kidnapping to drive home to Conan what the stakes are if he is caught by the [[Black Organization]]. He offers to take Conan to a new life in America, but understands when Shinichi refuses due to a desire for independence and feelings for Ran - though Yusaku doesn't expect that resolve to last.&lt;ref name=&quot;Kidnapping&quot;&gt;{{cite book |last=Aoyama |first=Gosho |title=Detective Conan |volume=6 |publisher=Shogakukan |date=1995-07-18 |isbn=4-09-123376-7 |chapter=File 1 |language=Japanese |location=Tokyo|}}&lt;/ref&gt; He and Yukiko occasionally check up on Conan, but seem content to respect Shinichi's wishes to pursue the Black Organization without their help.<br /> <br /> == Personality ==<br /> Yusaku Kudo possesses a very sharp intellect and observation skills, traits which his son inherited, though Yusaku's own abilities remain more well-honed. He demonstrates in multiple cases an ability to operate several steps ahead of both Shinichi and criminals, able to discern the truth with much few clues than his son. Despite this, he chooses to not get involved unless Shinichi/Conan appears unable solve the case alone in time to save the intended victim.&lt;ref name=&quot;Train&quot;&gt;Manga Chapter 218: The Last Station&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;Manga Chapter 752: A Troublesome and Difficult Case&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;Episode (English #99-102: The Cornered Detective)&lt;/ref&gt; His success as a novelist is to a large part based on his keen understanding of the criminal mind, as his most famous recurring character is a criminal. While he is an excellent author, he will occasionally blow off his editors in order to do other things, such as travel with Yukiko.&lt;ref name=&quot;Kidnapping&quot;&gt;&lt;/ref&gt; He is very laid back and calm, never seen to lose his temper. Some might think him too laid back, as he often took his son to crime scenes before Shinichi was eleven,&lt;ref name=&quot;Call&quot;&gt;&lt;/ref&gt; and showed no concern over six-year-old Shinichi dragging Ran and Agasa into a potentially dangerous area of town to investigate a code.&lt;ref&gt;Manga Chapter 572: Broad Daylight&lt;/ref&gt; The only time he has been shown to be caught off-guard or stressed by a situation is after the false kidnapping, when Shinichi, as pay-back for the prank, alerts Yusaku's editors to his location and they force him to make up for missing his deadlines.&lt;ref name=&quot;Kidnapping&quot;&gt;&lt;/ref&gt; His less tolerable personality traits include a certain cockiness and a very bad touch at making humor.&lt;ref name=&quot;Train&quot;&gt;&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> Yusaku loves to read, and is the one who compiled the massive library of mystery fiction Shinichi read as a child. His love of Sherlock Holmes is briefly explored in the non-[[canon]] 6th movie, '[[The Phantom of Baker Street]]', wherein Yusaku and Agasa helped develop one of the Cocoon VR modules as 19th Century London and included Holmes, Watson, and Irene Adler as non-playable characters modeled visually after Yusaku, Agasa, and Yukiko, respectively.<br /> <br /> ==Abilities==<br /> Yusaku's most defining trait is his keen mind. Very well-read with advanced knowledge and understanding in a myriad of subjects, Yusaku has has repeatedly proven to be immensely observant and analytical. He also shows equally sharp instincts, having an innate talent for seeing through deceptions factors that are out of place. While his son inherited this mindset, Yusaku has consistently been proven to be smarter than Shinichi, being able to solve cases much faster and efficiently with only a brief investigation or fewer clues. Yusaku is a world-renowned and best-selling novelist who won various awards for his mystery novels, especial the Night Baron series.<br /> <br /> While not a skill he mastered, Yusaku showed some capable acting skills, able to effectively convince Rei Furuya that he was [[Subaru Okiya]] after his wife and son helped him with the disguise.<br /> <br /> == Appellations ==<br /> &lt;tabs jsId=&quot;nicknames&quot;&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Friends &amp; relatives&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Yusaku Kudo}}<br /> {{appellations|Yukiko Kudo|Yusaku&lt;br&gt;Yu-chan|Yukiko&lt;ref name=&quot;14f8&quot; /&gt;}}<br /> {{appellations|Shinichi Kudo|Dad (''Tou-san'')|Shinichi}}<br /> {{appellations|Conan Edogawa|Dad (''Tou-san'')|Shinichi&lt;br&gt;Edogawa Conan-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Ran Mouri|Shinichi's dad (''Shinichi no otou-san'')|Ran-chan&lt;br&gt;Mouri Ran&lt;br&gt;Ran-kun&lt;ref name=&quot;14f8&quot;&gt;[[Volume 14]], File 8&lt;/ref&gt;}}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Law enforcement&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Yusaku Kudo}}<br /> {{appellations|Juzo Megure|Yusaku-kun|Megure}}<br /> {{appellations|Subaru Okiya|Kudo Yusaku-shi&lt;ref name=&quot;file898&quot;&gt;[[Volume 85#Scarlet Showdown|File 898 (Volume 85)]]&lt;/ref&gt;|That FBI agent}}<br /> {{appellations|Shuichi Akai|Yusaku-san|Akai-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Rei Furuya|Kudo Yusaku&lt;ref name=&quot;file895&quot;&gt;[[Volume 85#Scarlet Showdown|File 895 (Volume 85)]]&lt;/ref&gt;|-}}<br /> {{appellations|Jodie Starling|-|Agent Jodie (''Jodie-sōsakan'')&lt;ref name=&quot;file1063&quot;&gt;[[Volume 100#FBI Serial Murder Case|File 1063 (Volume 100)]]&lt;/ref&gt;}}<br /> {{appellations|James Black|Yusaku-san&lt;ref name=&quot;file1063&quot;&gt;[[Volume 100#FBI Serial Murder Case|File 1063 (Volume 100)]]&lt;/ref&gt;|-}}<br /> {{appellations|Andre Camel|-|Camel-kun}}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Others&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Yusaku Kudo}}<br /> {{appellations|Kaitou Kid|-|Kaitou 1412&lt;br&gt;Kaitou Kid|file=Toichi as Kid.jpg}}<br /> {{appellations|Toichi Kuroba|Kudo-shi&lt;br&gt;Dear Yūsaku Kudō (letter)|-}}<br /> {{appellations|Masumi Sera|Kudo Yusaku|-}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;/tabs&gt;<br /> <br /> == Plot overview ==<br /> === Conan Edogawa Kidnapping Case (Manga: [[Volume 5|49-51]], Anime: [[Conan Edogawa Kidnapping Case|43]]) ===<br /> Yusaku and Yukiko reveal themselves to Shinichi. Yusaku created this scenario to test Shinichi's detective skills. Shinichi's parents are worried about him and want Shinichi to realize the danger of hunting the Black Organization. They also want Shinichi to go with them to America and have Interpol or another professional law enforcement try to find the Black Organization instead and have Shinichi give up as a detective because they know how dangerous it is. Shinichi refuses, however, because he wants to stay near Ran and look for the Black Organization too. Yukiko was angry as this, but Yusaku tells her they should respect Shinichi's decision and says mischievously that he had another reason to stay in Japan. Later on a plane, Yukiko began to worry about Shinichi, but Yusaku calmed her down and told her that Shinichi will be alright and believes that he will come back to them. People from Foreigner Magazine find Yusaku, who was surprised that they found him. He asks how they found him. The Foreigner Magazine people said that Shinichi told them. Yukiko wants Shinichi got them back this time and this forces Yusaku to work endlessly.<br /> <br /> === Night Baron Murder Case (case part) (Manga: [[Volume 8#Night Baron Murder Case|72]], Anime: [[Night Baron Murder Case|68]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Moon, Star, Sun Code Case (Manga: [[Volume 12#Moon.2C Star.2C and Sun Case|111-113]], Anime: [[The Secret of the Moon, the Star, and the Sun|163-164]]) ===<br /> <br /> === The Cornered Famous Detective!

Shinichi attempted to confess to Ran in the same fashion, but shrunk to Conan before being able to do so.<br /> <br /> === Heiji Hattori Vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slopes (Manga: [[Volume 50#Yuki-Onna Murder Case|518-521]] and [[Volume 51#Yuki-Onna Murder Case|522]], Anime: [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|490]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Shinichi Kudo's Childhood Adventure (Manga: [[Volume 55|570-573]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's Childhood Adventure|472-473]]) ===<br /> 10 years in the past Shinichi receives a coded message from a mysterious man at his school. Yusaku manages to give Shinichi a clue to the first code, setting him off on a Childhood Adventure. While Shinichi is gone, [[Eri Kisaki]] delivers a message from the police to Yusaku, thanking him for his efforts at chasing away a mysterious thief. Yusaku had been unable to receive the message due to disconnecting his phone, to work on his manuscripts. When Shinichi reached the end of the code trail, he came to the incorrect conclusion that his father, was the one who had made the code. In the present day, Conan solves the true code and realizes that it was from the original Kaito Kid ([[Toichi Kuroba]]) and was meant for his father to solve. <br /> <br /> === Holmes' Revelation (Manga: [[Volume 71|743-751]], Anime: [[Holmes' Revelation|616-621]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Yusaku Kudo's Cold Case (Manga: [[Volume 77|812-814]], Anime: [[Yusaku Kudo's Cold Case|690-691]]) ===<br /> 10 years in the past Yusaku was called in to assist on a case where a man had died in a park leaving a bloody &quot;death&quot; kanji character next to it. The character caused fear of a possible serial killer. He solved the case instantly and turned to Megure and said that this case would never happen again. In the present day [[Ran Mouri]], [[Sonoko Suzuki]], and [[Masumi Sera]] stumble across a body that also has a bloody &quot;death&quot; kanji next to it. They meet up with Conan and [[Subaru Okiya]] at the Kudo home and go through Yusaku's files. A combination of information from the past and present lead them to the solution that Yusaku had come up with all those years ago. The death had been a accident, but the first person who discovered the body, a young boy, had accidentally created the character, by placing candy next to the body, so the blood would flow around it and shape into the 'death' character. Yusaku withhold the details, because he fear that the boy's actions would be misunderstood as a rude prank. Conan and the girls as well solve the new case and stopping the criminals. However this case had the consequence that Subaru discovered Conan's identity.<br /> <br /> === The Scarlet Return (Manga: [[Volume 85|894-898]], Anime: [[The Scarlet Return|779-783]]) ===<br /> [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] manages to trick [[Andre Camel]] into revealing the last piece of information to prove that [[Shuichi Akai]] is still alive.

After Bourbon reveals the trick that allowed Akai to survive, he gets a call from his co-workers announcing that they had encountered Akai while trying to capture [[Jodie Starling]] and [[Andre Camel]]. Bourbon apologizes to the &quot;Subaru&quot; and leaves. Afterword it is revealed that this was a new plan orchestrated by Conan with Yusaku wearing the Subaru disguise. The Yusaku on the TV in the background, receiving a Macademy Award, was actually [[Yukiko Kudo]] also in a disguise.<br /> <br /> === Ran GIRL/Shinichi BOY (Manga: [[Volume 87#Ran .26 Shinichi .E2.80.93 First Contact|921-924]], Anime: [[Memories from Sakura Class|853-854]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Crimson School Trip Case (Manga: [[Volume 95#Crimson School Trip Case|1005]], Anime: [[The Scarlet School Trip|927-928]]) ===<br /> <br /> === The Missing Maria Higashio Case (Manga: [[Volume 95#Missing Maria Higashio Case|1008]], Anime: [[Search for Maria-chan!|942]]) ===<br /> Yukiko and Yusaku have returned to Japan and reveal to Conan that they convinced the blog owner to retract her claim in exchange for their autographs.

However, Yukiko and Yusaku pretended to have food poisoning, as they saw through the Black Organization attempt to take them out. They plan with the FBI and pretended to get the symptoms of food poisoning to fool the Black Organization. Yusaku and Shuichi mention the only things left is to prepare the Black Organization's big move.<br /> <br /> === FBI Serial Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 100#FBI Serial Murder Case|1061-1066]], Anime: TBA) ===<br /> <br /> == Non-canon plot overview ==<br /> === The Phantom of Baker Street (Movie: [[The Phantom of Baker Street|6]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Home of Beika's Grenier (Anime: [[Home of Beika's Grenier|418]]) ===<br /> <br /> == Relationships analysis ==<br /> {{main|Kudo family}}<br /> <br /> === Yukiko Kudo ===<br /> {{main|Yusaku Kudo and Yukiko Kudo}}<br /> Not much is known about Yusaku and Yukiko's backstory before they get married. The most notable scene was from 20 years ago, when Yusaku and Yukiko met in a high end restaurant. Yusaku observed a murder crime, quickly solved it and suddenly proposed to a startled Yukiko, which she accepted. Despite occasional quarrels, they truly love each other and Yusaku fully supports Yukiko on her connections with the film industry after her retirement.<br /> <br /> === Shinichi Kudo/Conan Edogawa ===<br /> Shinichi is his son and learns detective work from him. Yusaku began taking Shinichi to crime scenes as soon as Shinichi was 7 years old. Overall, Yusaku is a better detective, both from his experience and his astute observations that Shinichi sometimes misses. Yusaku fully supports Shinichi's goal and gives him the needed independence to solve cases, only dropping hints or stepping in when it is absolutely necessary. Although Yusaku and Yukiko left their son in Japan 3 years ago when they moved to America, they still supported him financially and occasionally came back to Japan to check their son's wellbeing.<br /> <br /> When Shinichi shrunk into Conan, Yusaku staged a fake kidnapping scheme with Yukiko and Professor Agasa to make Shinichi realize the danger of the organization Shinichi was trying to investigate. He offered to bring Shinichi to America, which Shinichi refused. Since then, he still acted the same way towards Conan as before and limited his involvement with Black Organization, only helping his son on a single case by disguising as Subaru Okiya to fool Tooru Amuro.<br /> <br /> == Character popularity ==<br /> * eBookJapan held a character popularity poll from April 12, 2011 to May 12, 2011 in which readers of Detective Conan (international included) could vote for their favorite character.

Eisuke lived with his mother, who worked as a housekeeper, unaware that his father was CIA-agent. His older sister Hidemi was in school abroad during that time, but came and visited during holidays, while his father lived and worked in Osaka and came by on New Year. Eisuke was very sick as a child and was very close with his sister, who always took him to the hospital. During those trip Hidemi told her brother that had a bloodtype that he could share with everyone (meaning he was born a type O). At some point during his childhood in Tokyo he became ill of leukemia and to treat him, Hidemi donated her own bone marrow to him. The operation was a success, but unknown to Eisuke his bloodtype changed from O to AB, because it was Hidemi's blood type and in such treatments the patient's bloodtype can change to the donor's bloodtype. After that his mother passed away due to illness, and Eisuke's father brought him to Osaka to live with him. There he was injured in an accident, and Hidemi was used as blood donor, which was possible, since the siblings now had same bloodtype. But after that surgery, Hidemi left and Eisuke lost contact with her. Soon after Eisuke's father left him in care with a friend to work undercover in the black organisation, but until his death he still had contact with his son and send him money.<br /> <br /> Eisuke Hondou first appeared soon after one of [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s confrontations with the [[Black Organization]], in which it was revealed that popular newscaster [[Hidemi Hondou|Rena Mizunashi]] was one of their members. He enlisted into Teitan High School and quickly made friends with [[Ran Mouri]] and [[Sonoko Suzuki]], who noticed the striking similarity to Mizunashi.<br /> <br /> Eisuke had been investigating Rena Mizunashi, noticing the resemblance she had with his sister and suspected that she was connected to Hidemi's disappearance. He learned that Kogoro Mouri was the last to meet her, before she took time off and concluded first he was hiding her somewhere. But as he made research on the detective, he discovered a big difference in his deduction skills before and after he become 'Sleeping Kogoro' and noticed that Conan was always by his side.<br /> <br /> Some time later, Eisuke visited [[Kogoro Mouri|Ran's father]] in his office, where he also ran into Conan. After expressing a vivid interest in Mouri's work, he was invited by Ran to come by anytime, much to the displeasure of Conan, who had become suspicious of Eisuke. This suspicion was confirmed by the fact that in subsequent cases Eisuke made several blunders which would 'incidentally' contribute to the solution of the relevant case.<br /> [[Image:Eisuke hondou eating with his father.jpg|thumb|200px|Eisuke eating okonomiyaki with his father when he was a kid.]]<br /> In time, Conan found out that Eisuke was indeed related to Rena Mizunashi. He had come to Tokyo looking for clues of his sister's whereabouts, sparked by him seeing her working as a newscaster by happenstance. He learned the truth from Conan, Hidemi and [[Shuichi Akai]] - that his sister, as well as [[Ethan Hondou|his late father]], were working for the CIA against the Black Organization. Following this revelation, he was offered a place in the Witness Protection Program, which he refused, though he decided to follow in his family's footsteps by joining the CIA one day. Alone with Conan, he also confessed that he had fallen in love with Ran and wished to take her with him to America. When Conan protested, Eisuke laughed out loud, stating that Conan's reaction was the final confirmation he had needed: that Conan was really [[Shinichi Kudo]], and that in fact he was responsible for the &quot;Sleeping Kogoro's success.&quot; With this revelation, he asked Conan/Shinichi to take good care of Ran in his stead, thus promising to keep his secret.<br /> <br /> == Personality ==<br /> Eisuke is a person with extremely bad luck. He's constantly bumping into or falling over something. However, his clumsiness belies a sharp intellect and keen talent for observation: With only few clues to work with, he was able to track down his vanished sister to the Haido Central Hospital, where the FBI was keeping her under guard, and even penetrate the facility to confront Rena Mizunashi - who really was his sister [[Hidemi Hondou|Hidemi]] - before he was discovered by Conan. He figured out that Shinichi and Conan were the same person before even meeting Conan and managed to force to the truth out of him later.<br /> <br /> As a person, Eisuke is usually quite jovial and friendly, though very emotional at times; in stressful situations he often lets his feelings get the better of him.<br /> <br /> ==Abilities==<br /> Eisuke has extremely bad luck and is very clumsy, but he has a sharp intellect and keen skills of observation, being able to search for his sister and tracking Rena Mizunashi. He also [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|discovered Conan's true identity]]. However, he failed to consider that Mizunashi could still be his sister despite having incompatible blood types, showing his lack of trivial knowledge when compared with, e.g., Conan.<br /> <br /> == Appellations ==<br /> &lt;tabs jsId=&quot;nicknames&quot;&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Friends &amp;amp; relatives&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Hidemi Hondou|Ei-chan &lt;br&gt; Eisuke|Mizunashi Rena (once) &lt;br&gt; Hidemi-nēsan &lt;br&gt; Sister (''Ane'') &lt;br&gt; Mizunashi-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Ethan Hondou|-|Father (''Chichi'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Mrs. Hondou|-|Mother (''Haha'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Conan Edogawa|Eisuke-niichan &lt;br&gt; Eisuke &lt;br&gt; Hondou Eisuke|Conan-kun &lt;br&gt; Kudo Shinichi}}<br /> {{appellations|Ran Mouri|Eisuke-kun|Ran-san &lt;br&gt; Mouri-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Kogoro Mouri|Clumsy brat (''bukiyō na gaki'')|Great Detective (''Meitantei'') &lt;br&gt; Mouri-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Sonoko Suzuki|Eisuke-kun &lt;br&gt; Clumsy boy (''Dojikko'')|Suzuki-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Nakamichi|Hondou}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Law enforcement&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Shuichi Akai|[[Ethan Hondou|NOC]]'s son (''NOC no musuko'') &lt;br&gt; Brother (''otōto''; talking to [[Hidemi Hondou|Hidemi]])}}<br /> {{appellations|Jodie Starling|Eisuke &lt;Br&gt; Eisuke-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Wataru Takagi|Hondou Eisuke-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Juzo Megure| Eisuke-kun}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Others&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Eisuke}}<br /> {{Appellations|Heiji Hattori|Hondou Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Ai Haibara|Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Shinichi Kudo|-|Shinichi-san &lt;br&gt; Kudo Shinichi}}<br /> <br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;/tabs&gt;<br /> <br /> == Plot overview ==<br /> === Secret Path to School (Manga: [[Volume 49#Missing Classmate Case|507]], Anime: [[Super Secret of the Road to School|427-428]]) ===<br /> Ran mentions they have a new transfer student in their school who looks like Rena Mizunashi, that student is Eisuke Hondou.

He says he wants to meet Kogoro to borrow some of his luck, and considers Kogoro's way of solving cases while sleeping as when God comes to him. Eisuke accompanies Kogoro and they discover a body. He starts observing Kogoro and even questions why Conan is beside Kogoro while solving the case. Conan begins to suspect Eisuke, but drops it when he hits his head on the car's headliner.&lt;ref&gt;[[Two People Who Can't Return|Episode 429-430: Two People Who Can't Return]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Sealed Western Window (Manga: [[Volume 51#Sealed Window Case|530-532]], Anime: [[The Sealed Western-Style Window|446-447]]) ===<br /> Eisuke and Conan are beginning to grow suspicious of each other. It is shown that Eisuke may be easily scared in his reactions to the tales of the demon. He also makes some impressive deductions in relation to the murder case, but his solution is ultimately incorrect. Because Eisuke is watching him, Conan is forced to send Yamamura a text with the case solution pretending to be Kogoro.<br /> <br /> === Shadows of the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume 53#Giant Hammer Case|550]]-[[Volume 54#Mysterious Job Case|555]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|462-465]]) ===<br /> Conan grows more suspicious of Eisuke, suspecting that he is related to Rena Mizunashi as well as the Black Organization. Conan realizes that Eisuke repeatedly tries to bring up the subject of Rena Mizunashi by telling them hints about a recently missing TV personality, bringing them to the place where she got into a car accident and was taken into FBI custody, and other Mizunashi-related things. Conan also notices that she uses the same technique to detect lies (checking for elevated heart rate).&lt;ref&gt;[[The Shadow of the Black Organization|Episode 462-465: The Shadow of the Black Organization]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Nail and Snake (Manga: [[Volume 53#Giant Hammer Case|551]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|462-463]]) ===<br /> <br /> === The Mysterious Job (Manga: [[Volume 54#Mysterious Job Case|554-555]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|464-465]]) ===<br /> Eisuke reads a homepage about Rena Mizunashi and finds a post entry about Toji, who the homepage's administrator met, talking about seeing Rena having an accident with a motorbike. Eisuke found some entries about the administrator's strange job, which required taking trash from Toji's neighborhood and switch it with the trash from next time's collaboration, and decided to use it as a case request to Kogoro Mouri and have an excuse to visit Toji's house and meet him. When Conan (via Kogoro) sends Eisuke out of the house along with Ran and Toji, Eisuke gets the opportunity to question Toji. From that Eisuke realized that Rena must be hospitalized.<br /> <br /> === The Unsmashable Snowman (Manga: [[Volume 54|556-558]], Anime: [[The Unsmashable Snowman|466-467]]) ===<br /> Conan mentions Eisuke to Haibara. He thinks the reason that Eisuke led Conan, Ran, and Kogoro to the mysterious job case was to meet Touji, the witness of Kir's accident. The man who was hired for the job had posted on his blog about Touji and his story, so both Eisuke and Vermouth must have read it and sought out Touji to gain more details. Conan feels that he's not a bad person, but Haibara cautions Conan that he was just acting to let his guard down; however, Conan responds that he saw him crying. Conan thinks that he was unable to solve some problem or that there was something otherwise amiss, but lets it go for the time being.<br /> <br /> === Three Days with Heiji Hattori (Manga: [[Volume 54|559]]-[[Volume 55|566]], Anime: [[Three Days with Heiji Hattori|479]]) ===<br /> Conan mentions Eisuke to Heiji and asks him to look into something. Heiji asks why and if Eisuke had something do with Osaka. Conan responds that he wanted him to look into the person with the same eyes as Eisuke, Rena Mizunashi, and told Heiji that she was a Black Organization member. Heiji is shocked when Conan tells him about her accident.<br /> <br /> === Whereabouts of the Dark Photograph (Manga: [[Volume 56|582-584]], Anime: [[Whereabouts of the Dark Photograph|484-485]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Billing Fraud Case (Manga: [[Volume 56|585-586]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|491]]) ===<br /> When Ran, Sonoko, and Conan visit a friend from Middle School in a hospital, they coincidentally meet Eisuke who is looking for his sister, who left 10 years ago. His sister looks exactly like Rena Mizunashi but Eisuke insists that they are different people. To determine whether they are the same or not, they decide to visit a big fan of hers to confirm it. Koushi Anno, a big fan of Rena, tells them that he thinks they're the same person and show them a video wherein Rena has the same hairstyle as in the picture. But Eisuke insists that they are different since the video proves that Rena's blood type is AB, which can't be possible because when he was a kid, he remembered receiving a blood transfusion from her sister and his blood type had been O. <br /> <br /> === Deceased Mother's Memento (Manga: [[Volume 57|587-590]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|492-494]]) ===<br /> [[File:EP494-2.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan imagines Eisuke and Ran bathing together.]]<br /> Ran tells Sonoko that she knew where Rena Mizunashi was addressed. Sonoko asks why she did not tell Eisuke. Ran replies saying that she thought that Eisuke would be disappointed that Rena was not his sister. Conan assured that the Black Organization would take an interest in Eisuke because he shared resemblances to Rena. When Sonoko asked about his blood type, Eisuke fell down and said his blood type is O. Then he accompanied Kogoro to a client who was close to his mother who work as a housekeeper. There, Eisuke found his birth certificate showing that his blood type is O, leaving his sister's blood type unsolved. When Eiko Okudaira assumes that Ran was Eisuke's girlfriend, Ran says to her that it's nothing like that, while Eisuke says that she was not his girlfriend. Conan explains that they were here to find out what Eisuke's blood type was, and asked if he was right while looking at Eisuke with a jealous face. While solving a case, the butler tells Conan that Ran and Eisuke were in the bathroom. Conan thought that they were bathing but discovers that Ran was helping him change his clothes. Ran told Conan that she was a bit surprised when he took off his shirt in front of her so suddenly. Conan notices a scar on Eisuke's chest and wonders about what it could be.<br /> <br /> === Clash of Red and Black (Manga: [[Volume 57#Fake Patient Case|595]]-[[Volume 59#Foreign Suspect Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]]) ===<br /> After winter break, Conan learns that Ran has lost contact with Eisuke. The last time that Eisuke talked to her was when he told her that he found a clue on his father's company in Haido Central Hospital, the same hospital wherein Rena was secretly confined. Conan decide to inform Jodie about his suspicions on Eisuke. Jodie tells him that Eisuke's father was CIA spy and was killed by Rena four years ago. He later realizes that Eisuke found a Black Organization member and is currently in the hospital. The FBI decide to search for the undercover Black Organization member. While searching in the hospital for clue on Eisuke and the Black Organization, a nurse informs Conan that she remembers that Eisuke had a surgery in Tokyo due to his leukemia. <br /> <br /> The night before they decide to move Rena, Eisuke visits Rena's room and attempts to force her to wake up. When he tries to stab her with scissors, Rena stops him and calls him Ei-chan. She tells Eisuke that it is reason enough to get out of this without asking her anything else, but Eisuke refuses to believe it, saying that her blood type is AB while his is O. Conan appears and says that his blood type is now AB and that Rena, who is actually his sister, is member of a certain organization. Hidemi and Eisuke now have the same blood type, AB, after he received a bone marrow transplant from her when he had leukemia. Eisuke is shocked at this revelation. Conan explains that he heard his from a nurse who also explained that the scar in the middle of his chest was due to multiple insertion of a needle to test a tumor that was circulating in the marrow. Eisuke asks why did she not tell him about it and why she changed her name and became an announcer. Conan says that she is a CIA agent, as well as his father, Ethan Hondou. Rena becoming an announcer was part of the plan, and she was going to pretend to be a different person if he came after her. Conan respond to Hidemi that the plan backfired since Eisuke come see her in this condition. Eisuke becomes confused and asks about the organization. Akai then appears and says that this is all the information he is permitted to know. Camel forces Eisuke to leave.&lt;ref&gt;[[Clash of Red and Black|Episode 491-504: Clash of Red and Black]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Karaoke Box Case (Manga: [[Volume 59|619]]-[[Volume 60|621]], Anime: [[The Blind Spot in the Karaoke Box|507-508]]) ===<br /> Conan and Haibara meet Ran, Sonoko and Eisuke in a book store. Conan ask Eisuke that he heard that he was not in school for awhile, Ran respond that Eisuke reinstated today and Ran mention that she heard that Eisuke was absent due to a illness and was recuperated from illness while Sonoko tease him that it was Love Sickness and Eisuke respond it just only a regular illness. Eisuke remarks that &quot;he probably won't need&quot; a study book the girls are buying, and that he &quot;hates to be restricted by anything; even time.&quot; Eisuke visits a karaoke box along with Ran, Sonoko, and Conan. Conan and Haibara notice that a man is trailing the group, and Conan suggests that the man is likely an FBI agent keeping tabs on Eisuke, since he refused access to the Witness Protection Program.<br /> <br /> In the karaoke box, Eisuke leaves to visit the bathroom. He takes a very long time to return, and does so with a terrified expression. The body of the man trailing the group is discovered in another room. Conan suspects Eisuke, since he is under the impression that the deceased was tracking him. However, it is soon revealed that the man was in fact a stalker with a fixation on Sonoko. (What had frightened Eisuke was when he mistakenly opened another customer's room, he saw what he mistook as two men kissing.) Ran is very glad that Eisuke is innocent, to the point where her eyes become tearful.<br /> <br /> At the ending of the case, Eisuke walks home alone with Conan. He asks Conan to speak with Shinichi about his intentions to marry Ran and live with her in America. Conan angrily tells him that he can't, and reveals his identity as Shinichi Kudo to Eisuke. Eisuke laughs, and informs Conan that he had guessed it all along- showing all his deductions to Conan. He then tells Conan that he will move to America and join the CIA, following in his father and sister's footsteps. He admits that he was looking into Kogoro, because he had heard he was the last person to see Rena Mizunashi before she disappeared. He had concluded that Kogoro was sheltering her some way, but after checking him out, Eisuke realized that there was a big difference in his skill before and after he becomes the sleeping Kogoro. He connected Kogoro's rise as detective with Shinichi's absent from school and with Conan's present. But he did fell in love with Ran, so he asks Shinichi to make her happy.<br /> <br /> == Relationships analysis ==<br /> === Hidemi Hondou ===<br /> [[File:Hidemi and Eisuke.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Hidemi carrying Eisuke when he was a child.]]<br /> His sister had always taken care of him. Eisuke mentioned that when he was a child, he got injured after getting hit by a car, and she saved his life by donating her blood to him. Eisuke said that she was the reason why he's alive today and try to find her. While infiltrating the Black Organization, Hidemi had to cut off all contact with her family including Eisuke. Eisuke never gave up on finding his older sister even though she left when Eisuke was only about seven. Hidemi seemed to care a lot about Eisuke despite being separated; she burst into tears after meeting a young child who had been stalking her because she looked like his dead mother. When she discovered Eisuke was getting close to her trying to uncover her identity, she risked a meeting with Kogoro Mouri, hoping to convince him to take Eisuke away from her to keep him safe, and promised to tell information to the FBI if they put Eisuke in the witness protection program.<br /> <br /> === Ran Mouri ===<br /> [[File:EP430 6.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran and Eisuke during a case.]]<br /> In [[The Blind Spot in the Karaoke Box]], Eisuke has some interest in [[Ran Mouri|Ran]]. He admits to Conan that he loves Ran and claims that he would take Ran to America and live happily ever after there, and wonders if he should ask for Shinichi's permission. Conan, without hesitating, refuses, revealing his identity.<br /> <br /> === Conan Edogawa ===<br /> Eisuke shows interest in Conan. Eisuke often asks why Conan was around when Kogoro solved cases. Later, Conan reveals himself as Shinichi to Eisuke, and Eisuke reveals that he had suspected Conan's identity for a while. They share a neutral farewell when he goes to America to to join the CIA in his father and sister's footsteps.<br /> <br /> === Ethan Hondou ===<br /> Ethan Hondou was Eisuke's father. They used to eat okonomiyaki together at a restaurant when Eisuke was a child. Ethan later committed suicide in order to cover Hidemi's identity as a CIA operative.<br /> <br /> === Mrs. Hondou ===<br /> Eisuke lived with his mother during his childhood until she passed away. He shares a great resemblance with her.<br /> <br /> === Kogoro Mouri ===<br /> Eisuke had originally suspected that Kogoro had hide Rena Mizunashi away and did research on him. However he noticed a big difference between his detective skills and the skills of Sleeping Kogoro, which turned his attention to Conan.<br /> <br /> == Name origin ==<br /> Eisuke's name comes from &quot;Bondo&quot; (ボンド), the Japanese pronunciation of (James) &quot;Bond&quot;, and mystery writer {{nihongo|[[wikipedia:ja:海渡英祐|Eisuke Kaito]]|海渡 英祐|Kaito Eisuke}}.

Shinichi took the appearance of his six or seven year old self after being exposed to a prototype poison called [[APTX 4869]], which he had been forced to swallow by two men in black later revealed to be members of the [[Black Organization]].&lt;ref name=&quot;e1&quot;&gt;[[Roller Coaster Murder Case|Episode 1: Roller Coaster Murder Case]]&lt;/ref&gt; The poison de-aged Shinichi's entire body except for his nervous system and therefore he still has the personality, memories, and incredible deductive ability of his teenage self. Conan's goal is to hunt down the Black Organization and have them arrested for their crimes, as well as find an antidote to the APTX 4869. To do so he plans to make the washout detective [[Kogoro Mouri]] famous in hopes of attracting cases related to the Black Organization.<br /> <br /> Conan is often treated as a separate character from Shinichi by fans, and often viewed as the main character of the series while Shinichi is viewed as a recurring character. He has become a popular figure in Japan and even appeared at numerous occasions in different anime series (i.e. mainly cameo appearances) as well as other medias.<br /> <br /> == Background ==<br /> ''Conan Edogawa'' is [[Shinichi Kudo]]'s alter ego. He did not exist prior to the chain of events, involving members of the [[Black Organization]], that led Shinichi to transform back into a child.<br /> <br /> [[File:APTX 4869 given to Shinichi.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Shinichi being drugged.]] <br /> === The Transformation ===<br /> At the beginning of the series, Shinichi brings his friend [[Ran Mouri]] to [[Setting#Tropical_Land|Tropical Land]], a local theme park, to celebrate her victory in the Metropolitan Karate Championships. He later ends up solving a murder case there.&lt;ref name=&quot;e1&quot; /&gt; As they are leaving, Shinichi witnesses a suspicious exchange between an unknown business man and [[Vodka|a man in black]] in a secluded area by the ferris wheel. While spying on the suspicious men, Shinichi does not notice [[Gin|another man in black]], who knocks him out from behind and forces him to swallow a new experimental poison known as [[APTX 4869]]. They then leave him to die. However, instead of killing Shinichi, a rare side-effect occurred. Shinichi's body shrunk back to that of his six-year-old self.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 1#File 002 - The Great Detective Turned Small|Volume 1, File 2, page 59: &quot;The Great Detective Turned Small&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; In desperation and confusion, Shinichi heads back to his house and runs into his next door neighbor and close family friend, [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]]. After a few attempts at proving he's in fact Shinichi, he finally succeeds in convincing the Professor. The latter warns him he must keep his identity secret as the [[Black Organization]] will surely try to kill him and others associated with him should they learn the truth.&lt;ref name=&quot;e2&quot;&gt;[[Company President's Daughter Kidnapping Case|Episode 2: Company President's Daughter Kidnapping Case]].&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> {{clearleft}}<br /> [[File:Agasa shinichi.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Shinichi as conan in his shrunken form with Hiroshi Agasa first time met and Professor Agasa will go to <br /> Report to the police about this kid]]<br /> === Taking a new identity ===<br /> Shinichi comes up with the alias Conan Edogawa using the mystery author names [[Arthur Conan Doyle|Arthur '''''Conan''''' Doyle]] and [[Edogawa Rampo|'''''Edogawa''''' Rampo]] and pretends to be a distant relative of Agasa's who then places Conan in Ran's care.&lt;ref name=&quot;e2&quot; /&gt; Ran's father, [[Kogoro Mouri]], owns a Detective Agency which may provide a chance for Conan to run into a case involving the Black Organization. However, Kogoro is a terrible detective with little credibility. Using helpful gadgets that Agasa makes, Conan sets out to improve Kogoro's detective reputation by solving cases for him while also hiding the truth that Conan is really the one solving cases. By knocking Kogoro out at crime scenes with a fast-acting [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|tranquilizer]] and using a [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|voice modulator]] to relay deductions in Kogoro's voice, Conan creates 'Sleeping Kogoro'. The conceited Kogoro enjoys his newfound reputation and the money it brings in so much that he doesn't question why he is suddenly passing out at crime scenes and solving cases in his sleep. <br /> <br /> === Creation of the Detective Boys ===<br /> Conan enrolls at [[Teitan Elementary School]] to further protect his identity and is befriended by classmates [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]], [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]], and [[Genta Kojima|Genta]], who create the ''[[Detective Boys]]'' not long after.&lt;ref&gt;[[The Coded Map of the City Case|Episode 4: The Coded Map of the City Case]]&lt;/ref&gt; In the beginning he found the kids annoying, but he started to warm up to them and even gives them missions to accomplish.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Conan Stuns Kogoro.jpg|thumb|200px|Conan stuns Kogoro with his wristwatch, ready to solve a case!]]<br /> <br /> === Solving cases ===<br /> As Conan, Shinichi helps Ran's father solve cases by putting him to sleep and simulating Kogoro's voice using the special bowtie gadget Professor Agasa made for him. He also spends a good amount of time with his Detective Boys fellows and solves many small cases with them and sometimes in the company of Professor Agasa. In some situations, when there's only Ran, Sonoko, and himself, he will use Sonoko instead to solve the case at hand. Because of that, Sonoko eventually becomes another moderately well-known &quot;sleeping&quot; detective, although her reputation is only known to the local police investigation team and Sonoko's friends. In much later files, Conan has solved the case as himself then claimed afterwards that Shinichi told him what to say.<br /> <br /> === Encounter Black Organization ===<br /> Soon after being shrunk, Conan sets the plan to pursue and arrest the Black Organization members. Initial attempts were in vain until Haibara appears and starts giving clues on their whereabouts. However, in some of his early attempts, Conan tends to underestimate the ability of the Organization, leading to situations where he or his close friends being harmed and almost killed. Once understood the Organization and having allies to help, among them Shuichi Akai, who had been undercover in the organization and knows their ways, his later plans are more successful to foil Black Organization's plans, although he hasn't been able to expose the Black Organization and arrest their members yet.<br /> {{clear}}<br /> <br /> == Personality ==<br /> As Conan, Shinichi tries to behave like a child. He refers to Ran as &quot;Ran-neechan&quot; (''nee-chan'' meaning older sister, a common nickname Japanese children give to teenagers and young adults they look up to), and refers to Shinichi as &quot;Shinichi-niichan&quot; (''nii-chan'' meaning older brother). He also refers to Kogoro as &quot;Oji-san&quot; or &quot;Occhan&quot; (both meaning Uncle), although he also does this as Shinichi. As Shinichi, he refers to Conan as usually &quot;Conan-kun&quot; or the &quot;Kid in the Glasses&quot;. Shinichi treats Conan as a separate person completely, thinking for example, &quot;changing back into Conan&quot;.<br /> <br /> [[File:Ran telling Conan she likes Shinichi.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Ran telling Conan she likes Shinichi.]]<br /> [[File:Ran conan do not tell.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Ran telling Conan she likes Shinichi &lt;br&gt; (Picture from the &quot;[[Episode One: The Great Detective Turned Small|Episode one]]&quot; version).]]<br /> Conan remains very close to Ran, who in return is very protective of him. However, because Ran is unaware of his true identity, Conan often finds himself in awkward situations with her, such as when she confessed her feeling for Shinichi to him and when she made him bathe with her at a hot spring. <br /> <br /> Conan's intelligence remains intact even though he has shrunken into a child. As Shinichi, his deductive ability earned him the monikers &quot;[[Wikipedia: Heisei|Heisei]] Holmes&quot; and &quot;Savior of the Japanese police force&quot;. Conan maintains an extraordinarily broad knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases and escape tricky situations. Conan tries to speak in a child-like manner when dealing with adults, but he often gets caught up in the current case and begins speaking like an adult, referring to advanced topics and using reasoning much too complex for a normal child. When this happens, he often tries to pass it off as &quot;something [he] heard on TV&quot; or &quot;taught by uncle Kogoro/professor Agasa/Shinichi-niichan&quot;.<br /> Likewise, he makes no effort to hide his love for [[Sherlock Holmes]] and soccer, so if he called out for talking about either subject in too much detail, he tries to escape suspicion by saying it was something Shinichi told him about. Although as the series has progressed the adults around him have <br /> become more used to his &quot;being quite smart for a child&quot;, causing him to behave more like himself around them, he still tries to pass as a normal child.<br /> [[File:Conan, Tome, and Chiba.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan whispers to [[Kazunobu Chiba]] and [[Officer Tome|Tome]].]]<br /> The only police officers with whom Conan can speak in a professional manner are the [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]], especially [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], [[James Black]], and Inspector [[Kansuke Yamato]] of the Nagano Police, all of whom suspect that there is more to Conan than meets the eye.<br /> <br /> Conan tends to act more like himself around the [[Detective Boys]], even to the point that they find it odd when he acts like a child around adults. He will often play games like baseball with the Detective Boys, but he is too used to soccer to perform well and will even instinctively use soccer techniques, such as kicking in games that do not call for it. Because he is unfamiliar with popular games and TV shows, and bad at video games, Genta and the others tend to think of him as dumb. This annoys Conan so much that he will secretly watch TV in the living room after Kogoro and Ran go to sleep to get more &quot;practice&quot; in.<br /> <br /> While he thinks that criminals should be punished, he also seem willing to give culprits, who has attempted murder due to misunderstandings and fail, a second chance and let them off the hook. &lt;ref&gt;The Celebrities' Secret&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;Won't Forgive Even One Millimeter&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;Scuba Diving Murder Case&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;Poisoned Fisherman Attempted Murder Case&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> After he had one time failed to stop the culprit from committing suicide,&lt;ref&gt;[[Moonlight Sonata Murder Case|Episodes 11: Moonlight Sonata Murder Case]].&lt;/ref&gt; he began to believe that a detective who has cornered a killer and just let him kill himself is no better than a murderer, and therefore he tries to do everything to stop it. At times when he fails to save the killer it haunts him. At first, he's callous and unempathetic: in The Bandage Man Villa murder case, when the culprit threatens to commit suicide, Shinichi calls his bluff by outright telling him to do it. However, soon after that Shinichi suffers through his own Norbury with the Moonlight Sonata Murder Case, during which a culprit commits suicide because Shinichi identified them without thinking ahead to how the culprit might react. The next two cases where a culprit plans to commit suicide has Shinichi removing the lethal tools before confronting them and placing officers around the perimeter to prevent the culprit from jumping respectively—and in each instance, Shinichi is clearly haunted by the death of the culprit in the Moonlight Sonata case, enough to snap at Hattori for offhandedly suggesting it may have been better if they let the culprit of the day actually kill themself, stating that a detective that allows that is &quot;no better than a murderer himself.&quot; The Detective's Nocturne case caps off this development arc, with Shinichi accompanying and befriending a suicidal murderer in order to form an emotional connection and convince them not to kill themself.<br /> <br /> However, an innate characteristic that he has, and probably had as Shinichi may be due to being a detective. Whenever he hears a scream, or sees a culprit, he will immediately and without hesitation run toward the sound or culprit instictively. <br /> <br /> If he is with another adult, or detective, he will most likely be in the front 2 people running toward the sound. <br /> If by himself or with some other non detective, he will still be running toward the sound.<br /> Whether it is a victim or a culprit, he will be one of the first 2 people.<br /> <br /> If it is to a victim, and another detective or officer is present, he may hang back a little, but he has no hesitations to checking on the victim, looking for clues, or going after culprits.<br /> <br /> And while it may have been somewhat forced on, Shinichi/Conan stops being as attention-seeking as he was in his original body.<br /> Subtle, but during &quot;The 3 'K's of Osaka&quot; story, Conan/Shinichi didn't want to investigate the case because his soccer idol was a suspect (and later confirmed to be the actual culprit). Afterwards, he stopped thinking like this, deciding that even if his friends, family, or someone who is close to either one is a suspect, he will consider that person a suspect until proven otherwise (such as Genta's dad being a possible suspect in &quot;The Culprit is Genta's Dad&quot; or Ran in &quot;Kaitou Kid and the Blush Mermaid&quot;).<br /> In regards to his attitude in dealing with mysterious and dangerous Black Organization (B.O.), Shinichi initially and arrogantly believed he could easily take them down, taking only minimum precautions in safety of himself and others. For example, when a B.O. member was suspected to be near in the &quot;Reunion With The Black Organization&quot; arc, Conan's way of protecting Haibara from being recognized is simply putting glasses on her; unfortunately, their was a B.O. member (Pisco) who instantly knew that Haibara was the shrunken Shiho Miyano and would have revealed her identity had he not been killed by Gin. It could've ended in more tragedy since Gin was very close to killing Haibara. This incident was a major wake-up call to the young detective that the organization isn't as easy to take down as he thought and that if he made a mistake, he or his loved ones could die. And while Shinichi/Conan still has a bit of a reckless side, he now asks for help when dealing with the B.O. and formulating plans to keep him and his allies safe.<br /> <br /> == Appearance ==<br /> [[File:Conan full face.png|thumb|right|200px|]]<br /> Conan has dark brown hair which mostly hangs downwards just above his blue eyes, but there are also a few strands that stick up at the front and back of his head. Conan's usual outfit consists of a blue blazer with a single button and a pair of shorts, red trainers and white socks, even though he has taken to wearing more casual clothing as time goes on. He also wears a red bowtie and his dad's old glasses. Both these items were later [[Gadgets|specifically modified]] by Professor Agasa to include a [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|voice changer]], [[Button Speaker|microphone]], and [[Criminal Tracking Glasses|homing device]], to aid in Conan in his cases. His [[Power-Enhancing Kick Shoes|red shoes]] have also been modified to harness electric and magnetic fields to stimulate pressure points on Conan's foot, greatly enhancing his kicking power.<br /> <br /> Additionally, much like Hattori and Shinichi, Conan is incredibly popular. Ayumi and Haibara both have crushes on him, he has been hit on by girls around his shrunken age repeatedly, and even Jodie and Vermouth have both been charmed by his charisma. One even promised to make him her husband. <br /> {{clear}}<br /> <br /> == Skills ==<br /> :''See also: [[Shinichi Kudo#Skills|Shinichi's Skills]]''<br /> === Detective skills ===<br /> [[File:Glasses Modification(Microphone).PNG|210px|thumb|right|<br /> Conan eavesdrop Police investigation meeting in [[Zero the Enforcer|Conan the movie 22]] to save Kogoro mouri from being a suspect.]]<br /> All of Shinichi's detective skills carry over to his Conan form, although Conan does not the have the reputation Shinichi had. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to remember every detail of an investigation or other topics he cares about, and may have a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eidetic_memory photographic memory] to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Conan's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony that other people miss, and using astute logic he uncovers the reasons behind those inconsistencies in order to link them to the crime. Conan has extraordinarily broad knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases; something he likely acquired from his incessant reading in his &quot;first childhood&quot;. There are only few people like [[Heiji]], [[Hakuba]] and [[Yusaku]] who are at the same detective level as Conan, with Yusaku be the only person who is noticeably better than Conan.<br /> <br /> As a child, Conan can attract less suspicion while investigating crime scenes, get away with searching people's personal property, and ask innocent questions without setting suspects on guard, although it comes with the drawback of not having Shinichi's authority or reputation. He is also shown able to read lips.&lt;ref&gt;[[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> Additionally, in the [[Conan vs. Double Code Mystery|Red, White, Yellow case]], Conan was specifically referred to and asked for help by a fellow classmate.<br /> <br /> === Observation Sense ===<br /> He is highly observant on almost every single thing in his life, whether at a crime scene, or his normal everyday life, whether he is Shinichi or Conan. If he notices anything amiss, he will frequently leave the Detective Boys, or whoever to investigate immediately, esp. if he thinks the organization is involved, but really his curiousity knows no bounds. <br /> <br /> It is kind of like his brain will not rest, as long as he is awake because he frequently observes everything, and wants to investigate it. <br /> <br /> [[Conan Cornered in the Darkness|At one point]], this is why he was kidnapped, and placed in a coffin with a fake bottom, in an old style hearse, which the kidnappers did not know was going to be sent to the scrapyard and crushed within hours of placing him in there.<br /> <br /> <br /> He is also a real people watcher, and spends a lot of time watching people to help determine careers, emotions, what is going on with them to name a few. If need be he will get up, and investigate further.<br /> <br /> <br /> He frequently notices momentary facial expressions that are only on a person's face for a second or two, which is all it takes for him to register the true emotions of people and various culprits. Such as a suddenly hidden smile upon finding the body of one's spouse, and the list goes on.<br /> <br /> <br /> Some Examples are the following:<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Home of Beika's Grenier]], when the old man used a hand to stand up, despite the presence of 4 little children, Conan noticed instantly the look that the old woman gave her husband, since he should not have used his hands to stand up in the presence of others.<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[The Tense Tea Party]], in [[Haido Central Hospital]], Conan was watching [[Tooru Amuro|Amuro]], and instantly noticed how he reacted after a small child was counting down, &quot;Three... Two... One...&quot; and shouted out, &quot;Zero!!&quot; Since Amuro noticed his own reaction, he had to cover it up, and say that &quot;'Zero' was one his nicknames when he was a little child.&quot; <br /> <br /> <br /> This was really the first clue to Conan that Amuro may not just be the Black Organization Member Bourbon, but [[Public Security Bureau|something else too]]. During [[The Scarlet Return]], Conan began to deduce from his own observations, that Amuro was from the Japanese Secret Police, which became confirmed by the end of the saga.<br /> <br /> <br /> Even when he was little he was practicing observing details and guessing careers of people, [[Episode 881|not always accurately]], but he was really a little boy at the time. This became much more accurate as he became older, and he retained this knowledge, when he shrunk down to Conan.<br /> <br /> === Being Watched or Paranoia Sense ===<br /> <br /> However, this particular Sense is the sense to know when he is being watched or observed by others. It may be called Paranoia, but it is not Paranoid if someone is really watching or following him, which he can quickly pick up on usually.<br /> <br /> This may stem from his involvement with the [[Black Organization]], and others. <br /> <br /> It may also help that his parents like to watch their son in disguise, and [[Yukiko Kudo|esp. his Master Of Disguise Mother]], with his [[Yusaku Kudo|Mystery Author father's]] habit of testing his son's observations and deductions from the time when he was really a young child. <br /> <br /> This ability is even more important due to the Black Organization wanting both [[Shiho Miyano|Sherry]] and his [[Shinichi Kudo|teenage self]] 'Dead,&quot; since it helps to protect them.<br /> <br /> <br /> This sense comes in a lesser degree as well:<br /> <br /> Although Conan can speak in a professional manner are the FBI, especially [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], [[James Black]], and Inspector [[Kansuke Yamato]] of the Nagano Police, all of whom suspect that there is more to Conan than meets the eye, as well as everyone, who know his identity, it does cause problems with everyone else. <br /> He can even speak this way to the [[Detective Boys]].<br /> <br /> <br /> This Sense also allows him to eventually realize when he is being highly descriptive, and rambling with adult knowledge, for him to quickly cover it up with &quot;saw it on Tv'&quot; &quot;Heard it from [[Kogoro Mouri|Uncle]], [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]], or [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]],&quot; and to begin talking and acting like a kid, even though the Detective Boys do not get why he suddenly goes all child-like, which is really the only time he does.<br /> <br /> <br /> It may also help him to know when [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] is suspicious that he is Shinichi Kudo, so he has to attempt to behave more like a child to mislead her for her own protection.<br /> <br /> <br /> This sense also allows him to determine if it is safe to use his tranquilizer on someone for the &quot;sleeping Detective&quot; routine. If he is being too closely watched, he has to continue to give hints, and possibly throughout the entire deduction, if he is unable to tranquilize someone: Kogoro, [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]], or someone else, if necessary.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> This sense did not seem to activate at all at [[Jodie's Memories and the Cherry Blossom Viewing Trap|the shrine]], when he was talking to Jodie, however, after a disguised Bourbon had a little chat with Jodie, and secretly placed a listening device in her sleeve, he wandered off, so that he can continue listening to them. <br /> <br /> <br /> However, with that deceased pickpocketing case, he and the other pickpocket victims, were brought to the crime scene, so he still continued listening to Jodie and Conan's conversation, although he did not appear to really watch or pay any attention to Jodie, Conan, Agasa, or any of the 4 kids, but he probably had a good view of [[Haibara]], unlike every other time, [[Sweet and Cold Delivery Service|when she attempts to hide her face from him]].<br /> <br /> If he was visually watching intently, Conan would probably have picked it up, but Bourbon's observations were done in a way, that did not place Conan on high alert, except for when Jodie kept bringing up &quot;Shuu.&quot;<br /> <br /> Needless to say, after the [[Kogoro in the Bar]] case, when Takagi told him some information, he was really on high alert, and this sense may not have activated due to his panic mode, which was still evident at the beginning of [[Bathroom Where Ran Collapsed As Well]] case, although he was being observed by Bourbon, who was listening around the corner, however for several hours later, he did appear to be quite paranoid, and maybe that is why it did not appear to activate, because he was already on high alert and frightened at the time.<br /> <br /> Now, these sense is sometimes just a fleeting sense, however, something did seem to activate it, even if it was just momentarily, but it does leave to a hint that someone might be watching him.<br /> <br /> === Speed Reader ===<br /> In [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]], he was shown to be able to read through hospital records at lightning fast speed.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> === Killer Radar ===<br /> This radar is obviously not completely accurate, but at times, he only has to see a person to know that they are the killer.<br /> <br /> In the first episode, he could sense that [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] were killers, but that did not stop him from tailing Vodka, only to be knocked out by Gin, and fed a [[Apoptoxin 4869|poison pill, which made him shrink to the body of a 7 year old]].<br /> <br /> In [[The Romance Novel with the Unexpected Conclusion]], he knew who the killer within minutes of the body being discovered, and merely had to get the evidence and figure out the trick.<br /> <br /> There are many other instances as well.<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[The Mysterious Woman With Amnesia Case]], he probably would have picked up on the amnesiac woman being a killer, but she did have amnesia, although he highly suspected when he saw her hands, which are the hands of someone who works with wire. He picked up that she was a hit woman, who specialized in killing by use of a wire garrote, which she used to strangle her victims.<br /> <br /> <br /> In one episode, someone fell from a balcony, and Conan knew this woman was the killer instantly. The police brought up the information of her husband being killed during a robbery awhile back. <br /> <br /> After she was questioned, and was allowed to leave, Conan began acting and begging her to let him ride in her expensive looking car, and she did.They left without [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].<br /> <br /> He even managed to have her take him to see her place.<br /> <br /> After she left him alone, he began investigating, and around the time of his deduction, Kogoro called him, and the call ended soon afterward.<br /> <br /> When Conan stated that he knows that she is responsible for the death of her husband, and the guy who just fell, she threatened to kill him, and he lets her know that he hit redial on the phone, and Kogoro stated, &quot;The police are on there way.&quot;<br /> <br /> === Suicide Alertness ===<br /> This sense allows him to determine if a person, and most likely the culprit is likely to commit suicide, which would probably be a result of the deduction stage of a case.<br /> Sometimes, it may be simply obvious, with the culprit stating their suicidal intentions, but it is not usually that way, and Conan's sense was developed after a specific incidence.<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Moonlight Sonata Murder Case]], Conan figured out that the serial killer planned to die, like his father, and before their mind could be changed, the culprit literally threw Conan through the window, just before the building went up in flames. Since that incident, Conan is more determined to take the suicidal choice away from the culprits.<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case]], Conan had asked, [[Heiji]], &quot;If he ever killed anyone before,&quot; stating that he feels that letting a person commit suicide when it can be stopped is the same as killing the person oneself.<br /> While Conan was talking with Heiji, he was also replacing the gasoline with water in order to stop the culprits Murder/Suicide.<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[The Case of the Besieged Detective Agency]], a gunman strapped with bombs came into the detective agency, shortly followed by three women. His instructions were to discover which of the 3 women murdered his sister, and made it look like a suicide. Conan called [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], who was with [[Sera Masumi|Sera]], and Sera closed Ran's phone, but kept her little phone thing placed inside the phone, so it is still open, and Conan can hear everything that is being spoken. <br /> <br /> The gunman stated that he will blow up the agency, if Kogoro cannot name the killer, and that once the killer is named, he will only kill the killer and himself. Thankfully, after the gunman discovered Ran's phone was still open, he welcomed the assistance of another [[Shinichi Kudo|Detective Shinichi Kudo]].<br /> <br /> After [[the Detective Boys]] managed to do the footwork, Conan was able to finish solving the case, but he first had to stop the gunman from committing a murder/suicide, so he bluffed that the sister killed herself. <br /> After the gunman was arrested, Conan finished solving the case, out of earshot of the suicidal man, and named the killer, who is not who they thought it was.<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Detectives' Nocturne]], Conan quickly figured out that the woman in the agency's bathroom was really the killer of the &quot;accused deceased guy. <br /> After [[Bourbon|Amuro]], [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]], Ran, and Conan escorted her home to her apartment, then Conan behaved like he was desperate to use the bathroom, which really made sense, since a corpse was on the toilet seat of the apartment, until the police removed it, and it is still a crime scene.<br /> <br /> When everyone else went to the kitchen for tea or something, Conan rushed to the bathroom, and quickly went the other direction in order to investigate the apartment. Most likely, he discovered bugs, and especially a bug in the suitcase with another corpse, which was under the bed.<br /> <br /> When he was finished with his investigation, he left the apartment and waited for her. <br /> <br /> After Masumi called Ran, Amuro and Kogoro realized there are bugs present, and Amuro hung up on Masumi. <br /> <br /> Amuro has a bug detector, and while Amuro, Kogoro, and Ran went on the search to discover all of the bugs in the apartment, the woman made up an escuse, and immediately bumped into Conan, who was waiting for her.<br /> <br /> She agreed to take him with her to a nearby convenience store, and gave him some juice, which she drugged with sleeping pills. After he appeared to fall asleep, she continued driving.<br /> <br /> <br /> When Kogoro, Ran, and Amuro discovered the body, and noticed Conan's absense, Kogoro called the culprit/kidnapper, and she stated that Conan will be returned in the morning.<br /> <br /> <br /> After Kogoro and Amuro did more investigating, and noticing that bank robbery, and that 2 of the suspects are the dead guy in the suitcase, and the deceased one at the agency. <br /> <br /> <br /> Ran told Masumi and Agasa that Conan has been kidnapped, which of course sets the stage for the big rescue scene:<br /> <br /> Masumi on her motorcycle<br /> <br /> [[Subaru]], [[Agasa]], and [[Haibara]] in Subaru's car, with Haibara wearing the tracking glasses.<br /> <br /> Amuro, Ran, and Kogoro in another Vehicle, with Kogoro in the back Seat.<br /> <br /> At some point, Conan stopped acting like he was really asleep, and gave her his deduction, and even helped her to discover which of those 3 women is the third bank robber, who killed her boyfriend in the bank. However, he would not give her the answer straight away, since he told her, &quot;I do not want to lose anyone. I mean you,&quot; since he read that her intentions were to kill the third robber, and then herself. <br /> <br /> By bonding with her, he managed to get her to agree to let the police handle it, and to turn herself in, once he told her. <br /> His plan was working splendidly until the third robber, with a shooting gun, entered the car, and grabbed and immobilized Conan, as well as holding tightly to his right wrist, so that he could not tranquilize her, which is where the rescuers came in.<br /> <br /> <br /> In another episode, Conan was with [[the Detective Boys]], when they came across a man, and after he dropped his lottery tickets, they helped him to pick it up. This man was talking positively about the future, and he even had lunch with the 5 children. <br /> <br /> After he left, Conan apparently notified and began teaching the other Detective Boys the signs that this man was about to commit suicide today, and they followed this man to a subway station.<br /> <br /> Conan stating, &quot;It'll hurt, you know,&quot; referring to jumping in front of the subway train.<br /> <br /> Conan and all of the Detective Boys: [[Genta]], [[Mitsuhiko]], [[Ayumi]], ande [[Haibara]] told him their evidence that he was about to commit suicide.<br /> <br /> Conan even managed to help him to locate his winning lottery ticket that he had lost, which was inside of the eyeglass container that his sick and hospitalized granddaughter gave him. He had not opened it since he lost that ticket. He was contemplating suicide in order to have his life insurance pay for her operation, thankfully he now has the lottery ticket, which may be able to help his granddaughter.<br /> <br /> After all, if he did commit suicide, the insurance company would not have paid it, if they were aware it was a suicide, which thankfully these 5 kids prevented.<br /> <br /> Thankfully, Conan began teaching the other Detective Boys some of the signs of a suicidal person, so they may be aware of them next time they find another suicidal person.<br /> <br /> === Bluffing and Telling Lies===<br /> He can bluff, if needed in order to come to the correct deduction, however he is not a great Liar. <br /> <br /> Bluffing is giving misinformation, in order to trip up the culprit. A few examples of Conan's Bluffs are the following:<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Holmes Freak Murder Case]], he stated the incorrect question of number 241 on that Holmes Test to prove that the culprit did not answer any of the 1,000 questions, since he knew the test grader was already deceased. <br /> <br /> <br /> In [[The Case of the Lucky Calico|the Lucky Calico]] case, he really told 2 bluffs, although only 1 bluff was discussed:<br /> <br /> The first one was to mistake the gender of a male calico, and stating it was a female, in order to gauge how this &quot;supposed owner&quot; would react, since male calico cats are worth a fortune. Conan managed to see the reaction before [[the Detective Boys]] blew it. Either way, this &quot;supposed owner would have backed out if the calico was a female.<br /> <br /> <br /> The second bluff was discussed when [[Azusa]] stated that she did not know that &quot;when a group of people are together, the cat will always jump to the one in the middle.&quot; [[Amuro]] stated that Conan did a bluff, so that he can perform his own experiment with the calico and the 3 &quot;supposed owners,&quot; before remarking that Conan is like a cat sharpening his claws.&quot; Amuro also did not state that it was to allow more time to pass, so that the [http://catnip catnip], would have no effect on [[Taii]] or [[Goro]], so that Taii's true owner can be properly identified.<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[The Case of the Besieged Detective Agency]], a gunman strapped with bombs came into the detective agency, shortly followed by three women. His instructions were to discover which of the 3 women murdered his sister, and made it look like a suicide. Conan called [[Ran]], who was with [[Sera Masumi|Sera]], and Sera closed Ran's phone, but kept her little phone thing placed inside the phone, so it is still open, and Conan can hear everything that is being spoken. <br /> <br /> The gunman stated that he will blow up the agency, if Kogoro cannot name the killer, and that once the killer is named, he will only kill the killer and himself. Thankfully, after the gunman discovered Ran's phone was still open, he welcomed the assistance of another [[Shinichi Kudo|Detective Shinichi Kudo]].<br /> <br /> After [[the Detective Boys]] managed to do the footwork, Conan was able to finish solving the case, but he first had to stop the gunman from committing a murder/suicide, so he bluffed that the sister killed herself. <br /> After the gunman was arrested, Conan finished solving the case, out of earshot of the suicidal man, and named the killer, who is not who they thought it was.<br /> <br /> <br /> As far as his cover of Conan Edogawa, he does have a hard time keeping others ignorant of his true identity.<br /> It does not help that he behaves more like an adult, when not actively playing with the Detective Boys, and he quickly switches to Adult Mode, if an investigation is in order, due to a crime or something else entirely.<br /> <br /> <br /> Two major examples of his being a lousy liar:<br /> <br /> When he had a hold of [[Kir]]'s shoe, with his bug and transmitter, at the park, she asked him if he followed her, while applying her CIA Lie Test to him. <br /> She made him feel weird, and he did say &quot;no,&quot; but she knew that he did follow her, and lied about it. It is a good thing that she previously turned off her own camera or wire, so the other [[Black Organization|Black Organization Operatives]] may not kill him. She then thanked him for &quot;picking up her shoe for her,&quot; before leaving.<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Haido Central Hospital]], [[Amuro]] asked Conan if he remembers his friend, [[Kusuda Rikumichi]], who was a patient, but went missing.<br /> [[The Tense Tea Party|Conan, quickly trying to end that line of questioning from Bourbon, quickly answered, &quot;No.&quot;]]<br /> <br /> <br /> Amuro smiled, and told him that he was amazing. He then went to question other people nearby, and returned to Conan, and stated, &quot;Most people are not confident in their own memories to instantly remember a person by their name only. Usually they have to ask questions, before answering.&quot; <br /> It is kind of like Amuro was aware of how amazing Conan is at so many different things, but he can't lie to save his life. <br /> It is like Amuro decided to give the kid a tip on how to tell a convincing lie.<br /> <br /> === Strategist ===<br /> He may not have always been a great strategist, but his strategies are becoming much better. <br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Boy Genta's Misfortune]], he deduced information pertaining to the Culprit, and ... He may not have organized the stakeout of that building yet, however he definitely did organize a road block with Sato, who got in contact with Yumi in [[The Man from Chicago]], when a [[James Black|foreign man]] was kidnapped. Unfortunately, Yumi did let them through since they were in a police car, and dressed as policemen, however when they deduced that Conan came up with a scheme so that the police can surround the culprits, by making it look like they were chasing some kidnappers, who kidnapped some kids. The plan worked wonders. By the way, even James Black the kidnappee, knew who staged his rescue with that ploy, after just one encounter with the five &quot;Detective Boys,&quot; and all Conan had to go on was &quot;P &amp; A.&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Contact with the Black Organization]], when Conan was on the phone with [[Vodka]], pretending to be the recently found '[[Suguru Itakura|dead guy]],' he successfully managed to move the meet up. He wanted to have the meet before they found out the guy was dead, and he was hoping to get fingerprints, saliva, DNA, etc. <br /> <br /> The thing is it may have worked if [[Gin]] did not stop Vodka from touching the item. In short, Gin became aware that someone crafty, like a fox, is after them. In short, Conan forgot, who he was dealing with, the &quot;[[Black Organization|Men in Black]],&quot; and to be more precise, the two that [[Roller Coaster Murder Case|shrunk, and almost killed]] him before.<br /> <br /> Conan managed to survive that encounter, but just barely due to Gin discounting something important. At any rate, Conan was stuck in that locker for several hours, and even lost some oxygen, and blacked out for awhile. Conan has since that time became much more cautious when dealing with the organization, unfortunately there is no one-hundred percent safe way to take on that organization.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Episode 345|Head-To-Head]], after he received an invitation from [[Vermouth]], he asked [[Haibara]] about her, and decided to tranquilize her, and lock her in the basement, and attempted to hide the spare tracking glasses.<br /> <br /> <br /> He mentioned to [[Agasa]], that [[Shinichi Kudo]]'s name is on the invitation and envelope, and his: Conan Edogawa's name is on the letter, in short, Vermouth knows his identity.<br /> <br /> <br /> He e-mailed someone and got a reply and a sudden cough.<br /> He inspected his house, and found [[Yukiko Kudo|his mother]].<br /> <br /> <br /> He told his mother about Vermouth, and her knowing his identity. He had her do some disguises.<br /> Yukiko disguised [[Hattori]] as first a teenage Shinichi, and then as the Invisible Man for the party.<br /> She then disguised Conan to took like Haibara.<br /> She then gave herself a Medusa Disguise, and accompanied Hattori on the ship with Kudo's invitation.<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Jodie]] picked up Haibara, who was really a disguised Conan, and he told her what to say in order for Vermouth to reveal herself.<br /> <br /> <br /> He planned on having her take him in to the Organization, but she attempted to kill Jodie, he unmasked himself, and his plan really went out the window, when Haibara escaped from the basement, and found the spare tracking glasses, and arrived at the scene, since she was tracking Conan.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Clash of Red and Black]], he came up with a few strategies:<br /> He told his plan to [[Akai]], who was heavily involved with both major SECRET strategies.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Fist, you need a &quot;[[Eisuke Hondo|Prince]] to wake up the [[Kir|sleeping Princess]],&quot; which means Eisuke to wake up his sister, who is continuing to fake her comatose condition.<br /> <br /> <br /> Then Conan, Akai, Kir, and [[Camel]] are involved in the returning Kir back Undercover in the [[Black Organization]], keeping everyone else in the dark, until she is back undercover.<br /> <br /> <br /> Then Conan came up with the plan to fake Akai's death by out guessing [[Gin]], the entire way. Only Akai and Kir, as well as Conan were in on this plan, but Conan could not be present, at this time at all, and did need to give Jodie his phone with the needed fingerprints. Everyone else was left in the dark, except for [[James Black]], who noticed the glue like substance on Akai's fingertips just prior to the meet.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> In [[The Jet-Black Mystery Train]], Conan had even less time to come up with a working strategy, since he did have his guard down. Thankfully, his mother let him know Vermouth was on the train, and he saw the Picture [[Mitsuhiko]] took of [[Shiho Miyano|Sherry]], when she saved them a little earlier.<br /> <br /> <br /> He had to quickly come up with a plan, which used an all-star cast of himself, his mother, [[Subaru]], and [[Kaito Kid|Kid disguised as Sherry]] as the finishing touches.<br /> <br /> <br /> That strategy worked out big time, since they were able to save Haibara's life, discover [[Bourbon]]'s identity, and make Vermouth agree to quit trying to kill her.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Scarlet showdown|the Scarlet episodes]], after Camel let it slip that [[Rikumichi Kusuda|Kusada]] shot himself in the head, Conan had less then a day to come up with a plan that made Bourbon think that Subaru and Akai were 2 different people, and to save Akai again.<br /> <br /> This time, Akai was in the back of Jodie and Camel's car.<br /> <br /> His mother, Yukiko Kudo, was disguised as her husband appearing on tv at an awards ceremony.<br /> <br /> His father, Yusaku Kudo, was dressed as [[Subaru]]. <br /> His father was wearing a voice changing facemask, and did a bit of coughing.<br /> Sometimes he answered, and sometimes, Conan listening in another room, with a number of cameras, had to also use Subaru's voice, when talking to Bourbon in the living room.<br /> <br /> === Athletic ability ===<br /> Conan is just as skilled as Shinichi in soccer, but a lot less powerful because he only has the strength of a young child. To make up for this, Conan uses Agasa's Power-enhancing kick shoes. Conan uses signature, powerful precision kick to knock out criminals using soccer balls or whatever substitute is handy. Like Shinichi, Conan's kick is accurate over distances and he is capable of mentally reckoning the angle of impact necessary to rebound a soccer ball off a wall and strike an attacker from behind. He is also good at skiing, snowboarding, and ice-skating. <br /> <br /> Conan also has some skill with firearms despite the recoil being much more severe for a child's body. He shoots out a bus window during a bus hijacking, and precisely grazes Ran's leg to render her useless as a hostage in the second movie. <br /> <br /> Conan's nimbleness is especially noticeable in the non-[[canon]] movies. For example, in the sixth movie, Conan is seen to fight with various antagonists, and he even holds his own against Jack the Ripper, a notorious serial killer who bests even Ran in combat. In the fourteenth movie, Conan does a back flip on his skateboard in order to avoid being killed by the blimp's hijackers. Conan shows a proclivity for skateboarding. In the movies and anime, Conan can easily perform very complicated tricks and dodges with his skateboard at high speed.<br /> <br /> === Acting Ability ===<br /> He may not have great acting ability, however he is good enough to accomplish his goals.<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Detectives' Nocturne]], he was given some juice, drugged with sleeping pills. He noticed that the safety seal was broken, so he pretended to drink it, and also at some time, appeared to fall asleep, spilling half of the juice on the back seat floorboard of her car, and really acted asleep for a long time. <br /> <br /> At some point, she even laid him down in the back seat, where he remained in that pose for a long time. <br /> <br /> When it was dark, and she stopped to get gas, and go to the restroom, she covered him with her coat, so he would not get sick. <br /> <br /> He continued acting asleep, when she returned, although he probably went through her coat pockets when she was away.<br /> <br /> He continued acting asleep, until he decided that he had enough evidence for his deduction, and to give it to her.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Two Days with the Culprit]], after he was kidnapped by Ryousuke Oomine, when he had an opening in some kind of room, he acted like he was scared of a rat or something, and began hugging, but in reality, he was frisking him in order to determine if he is armed.<br /> <br /> After he solved the case, he asked Ryousuke Oomine, &quot;how are you at acting,&quot; and they went to the location of the three suspects, and put on an act, like he was about to kill Conan, in order for the culprit to reveal himself. It worked.<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night ]], Conan did a good job of acting like [[Haibara]] in the car with [[Jodie]], but he probably broke character in order to tell Jodie what to say to [[Vermouth]] in order to get her to reveal herself to them, but that also earned his trust in Jodie at the same time.<br /> <br /> After he removed his Haibara mask, he was distracted, when Haibara showed up on the scene, which gave Vermouth the needed opening to use his stun gun wrist watch on him, to place him to sleep, before gently sitting him down beside the car, so he does not get hurt in the fall.<br /> <br /> After Vermouth abducted an unconscious Conan, and drove some distance away, she e-mailed the boss, and began thinking. When she touched his shoulders, she apparently felt some wires and stuff on him, so she cut his coat, and found a number of tubes going from Conan's body into a box. She started to rip out the wires from the box, and heard, &quot;I wouldn't if I were you.&quot; If those wires were pulled, it would send information to the machine that he is dead, and that e-mail that she just sent would be sent to his partner and the police. It is unknown just how long he was asleep, and when he woke up, but he later recalled the sound of the digits to the Boss.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> In [[The Disappearance of Conan Edogawa: The Worst Two Days in History]], the TV Special, while in a public bathroom, and after Conan saw some important evidence, he realized the danger, and faked a slip on the wet floor, where he was promptly chloroformed, and abducted.<br /> <br /> When he woke up, he pretended that he had amnesia.<br /> He eventually revealed that he was Edogawa Conan Detective to one of the people involved, however the amnesiac child act had to continue for the duration of the case.<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[The Woman with White Hands|The Woman with White Hands Case]], while rehearsing his lines for tomorrow's play, Conan is playing 'Ikku' in the school play. <br /> <br /> All of the following: [[Kobayashi-sensei]], [[Rumi Wakasa|Rumi-sensei]] as well as Conan's classmates are astonished at his wonderful acting and delivery of his lines. <br /> <br /> He told Haibara that he played that part when he was in third grade, and his parents had trained him well. With [[Yukiko Kudo|his mother being an actress]], and his [[Yusaku Kudo|father being a mystery writer]], who suggested a better phrase for him to say rather than the written line. <br /> <br /> In short, neither of his parents would have permitted him to give anything less than a stellar performance, so they made certain his performance was perfect. This is why, he missed several rehearsals as Conan as he remembered most of his lines.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> In [[A Crab and Whale Kidnapping Case]], at a beer garden at night, Conan overheard this man on the phone, and surmissed that his child had been abducted. Surprisingly Kogoro and Ran listened, and they followed this man, who they found out was a dentist.<br /> <br /> However, the only way to find out more, and everything, is to talk to the dentist. Since there may be some onlookers, Conan decided to play the part of a patient.<br /> <br /> He did a magnificent job of acting like a little boy who had an excruciatingly bad toothache in order to convince any onlookers that he was a patient, so that they could enter the Dentist office and talk to the Dentist. He appeared to be even louder than Kogoro on the intercom, asking for his child to be able to see the dentist, even though the dentist office is closed.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> As good as he is at acting, he is not always great at it.<br /> <br /> Most notibly, when he is petrified.<br /> <br /> When he hears the [[Nanatsu no Ko|7 children's melody]], he is unable to even act, like it is nothing, and esp. if he hears if in regards to dialing the [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|Boss's]] [[The Raven Chaser|E-mail]] [[Dissonance of the Stradivarius Violin|address]].<br /> <br /> At the [[Jodie's Memories and the Cherry Blossom Viewing Trap|shrine with Jodie]], he was definity unguarded, and the two did quite a bit of talking: before and after she had been bugged by a disguised [[Bourbon]] (Claiming to be [[Tohei Benzaki|a hostage, who was coincidentally pickpocketed just prior to being knocked out by Bourbon]], at the same bank with Jodie and the [[Scar Akai|scarred guy]]), until a disguised Vermouth (Claiming to be his [[Motoe Benzaki|6 month pregnant wife, who taped up Jodie]] at the bank) removed the bug.<br /> <br /> In the [[Kogoro in the Bar|Kogoro at the Bar Case]], [[Takagi Wataru|Detective Takagi]] notified Conan, that Tohei Benzaki, claims that he was never involved in a pickpocket case, and that he is single, and Conan begins to remember that the Bank robbers separated the hostages, who came with someone, from those who came alone. Only those who came alone taped up the ones who came with others.<br /> <br /> This placed Conan in a panicky state, and he began running from the bar, probably to the [[Agasa|professor]]'s house, since it is unlikely that he would have fled back to the Detective Agency, since [[Haibara]] might be in danger. If he did go to Agasa's house, it may also have placed [[Subaru]]/ [[Akai]] in danger too.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Bathroom Where Ran Collapsed As Well|the Bathroom where Ran Collapsed As Well Case]], he was still running from the bar. <br /> <br /> He began thinking that Bourbon and Vermouth may have made those purposeful mistakes in their story to trap him into making a mistake too, so he tried to calm down, and called Haibara, who apparently is safe, at this time. He then hung up.<br /> <br /> Around the corner, Bourbon had been closely watching him, when he was on the phone.<br /> <br /> <br /> Later that day, [[Ran]] and Conan were in an apartment complex lobby, while they were waiting for [[Eri Kisaki|Ran's mother]], in order to have lunch. <br /> <br /> Conan was attempting to act normal, although he failed miserably, since he was literally looking around the entire time, since they arrived, and probably ever since he hung up from Haibara earlier.<br /> <br /> <br /> He was so obviously frightened, that Ran asked if he is okay. He answered in the affirmative, but soon afterwards, he was literally sweating bullets.<br /> <br /> Ran thought about taking him home, rather than eating with her Mom, since he might be coming down with something.<br /> <br /> <br /> Soon afterwards, an already terrified Conan begins hearing the shutter of a camera, and becomes even more terrified. Soon afterwards, he saw a camera take his picture from behind a nearby chair, and [[Masumi]] came out of hiding, which really helped his fear to disappear, so that he can really go back to his normal &quot;Not terrified for your life&quot; state again. <br /> <br /> She probably witnessed his fear, while working on a case for her client, but chose to help him to calm down finally.<br /> <br /> <br /> In short, when he is terrified, he is unable to act like everything is normal.<br /> <br /> <br /> Another way that he fails at acting is when he cracks the culprit's trick, and gets the last bit of evidence for his deduction. <br /> <br /> If anyone is really watching Conan at these times, he may have some explaining to do. <br /> However no one is really paying attention to him at these many times. They are either not around, due to 'less footwork' or completely ignoring him, unless they (Kogoro) wants to get on to him for being where he shouldn't, and reacts promptly to that reprimand, rather than really observing him.<br /> <br /> He has shown both of these expressions a lot, and sometimes even both of them.<br /> The first is when he usually figures out the trick, and the momentary reaction he has when everything clicks into place.<br /> The second has finally been termed as a 'Prankster Smile' in the lucky calico case, by the detective boys, most noticeably Haibara and Ayumi in that order to realize that when he shows that smile, he has cracked the case and figured out everything.<br /> <br /> Unfortunately, he is frequently unable to act bored much of the time, even as Conan, since he is a genius, who could probably teach his high school teachers things as Shinichi Kudo, and bring him back to elementary school, and he is bored to death if he can't use his intellectual brain, which does help that most of the culprits do have a trick that requires to be cracked if they are to be caught.<br /> <br /> However, if a trick, code, or riddle is highly perplexing, Conan seems not to be able to hide his excitement, which he is not good at hiding to the observant. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> === Thirst For Intellectual Stimuli ===<br /> In [[The Secret of the Moon, the Star, and the Sun]], Professor Agasa made a treasure hunt game for the Detecctive Boys, really wanting it to be very difficult that Shinichi would practically give up, forgetting that if it was that way, the three real first graders would be unable to crack it at all.<br /> <br /> At any rate, Conan had already cracked the case, and found the professor's box within five minutes of entering the house, and he was focused on a much more complex code that someone else had come up with at the house.<br /> <br /> The Detective Boys reprimanded Conan for being lazy, and not helping figuring out where the clues to the Professor's treasure hunt, so that Conan had to lead the lazy children to each clue, so it is surprising that he did not just tell them where the box is, and don't bother him while he is focused on this less boring code.<br /> <br /> However, Agasa noticed Conan's deliriously happy expression when he was getting to solve a complicated riddle. Conan even stated, &quot;The more I don't understand, the more excited I get.&quot; <br /> <br /> Conan seems not to be able to hide his excitement in these cases, much like his boredom when he cannot use his brain, and [[The Final Screening Murder Case]] showed his limit is really only two hours, than he HAS to use his brain to be HAPPY. <br /> <br /> He really only seems happy when he is able to use his brain or with Ran, and even then, there are lots of idiots in his world, not saying names though. Even though she is not one usually. <br /> <br /> Thankfully, most of the culprits do use a trick or code to excite him, in contrast to a very simple one in [[The Secret of the High Sales]], which was solved by 3 real first grade children. He even stated at the end of that case, &quot;His brain needs a smart culprit.&quot; Due to the simpleness of the culprit, he had a hard time with that case. That may explain why Haibara was uninvolved in that case, since she was aware 'the culprit' was too simple and unintellectual for Conan's level of complexity.<br /> <br /> <br /> In fact, in [[Conan vs. Kaitou Kid]], he was bored at the talk of the thief, since &quot;This is stupid. Thieves are boring.,&quot; and planned on going to bed, however as soon as they mentioned about a coded message of announcement, he was all ears. In fact. Even though he cracked the code at Beika Museum, in the daytime, he did not tell anyone else that they were far off the mark. <br /> <br /> Instead, he snuck out at night in order to meet the Kid that night. Conan asked Agasa about tome information in his father's files, before meeting Kid, since he was fascinated to meet Kaito Kid, a &quot;strange retro-thief, whose crazy enough to announce his moves.&quot;<br /> <br /> Thankfully, there are some detectives and federal agents, where he can really show his intellectual stimuli, and this is done by them recognizing that he is the one really solving Kogoro's cases, and that he is a very smart child, even if they are unaware of who he really is:<br /> [[Jodie Starling]], [[James Black]], [[Miwako Sato]], [[Kansuke Yamato]], and [[Yui Uehara]], and even [[Wataru Takagi]], and the famous Shogi player, [[Shukichi Haneda]], an [[Black Organization|undercover]] [[Japanese Intelligence Agencies|Federal Agent]], [[Rei Furuya]].<br /> <br /> It is hard to say if he can even hide his intellect and thirst for it from [[Hyoue Kuroda]], a [[Rum]] Contender, due to the fact that before their [[Kawanakajima Murder Case|first case]], Kuroda had already allowed it to be known that he was aware of Conan's deductive intelligence, by his introduction of Conan, 'The Brain behind Sleeping Kogoro' and say that Conan has a ability to crack cases by seeing what no one else does. Conan Edogawa, Detective,&quot; in front of the Nagano Policemen present. In [[Mystery of the Burning Tent]], he refers to Conan as &quot;Sleeping Kogoro's Bag of Wisdom&quot; to both: Ninzaburo Shiratori and Inspector Yuminaga. <br /> <br /> As much as Conan may want to hide his intellect from Hyoue Kuroda, until he deduces Rum's identity, it may not be possible. <br /> After all, in a case, Kuroda did tell Takagi and Megure to do whatever Conan says, and in another case, he did instruct Bourbon to answer all of Conan's questions about the case, when he realized that Conan is also investigating this case too.<br /> <br /> === First aid ===<br /> Conan has repeatedly dispensed first aid to stabbed/shot/cardiac/poisoned/hurt victims before the rescuers arrive.<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[A June Bride Murder Case]], In the manga, Conan rinses out Miss Matsumoto's mouth out with milk after he sees her collapsing, in an effort to neutralize the poison in her body. It is later stated that this bit of first aid may have been the reason to why Miss Matsumoto was discharged from the hospital sooner than anticipated. These parts are cut from the anime entirely.<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Scuba Diving Murder Case]], after a woman had suffered a snake bite from a water snake, Conan immediately grabbed a glass of ice tea, and gave it to those sucking out the poison, and treating her. <br /> <br /> Although Kogoro had no knowledge of any of this, Eri told him, &quot;Ice Tea has Tannin. The first thing to do in the case of a snake bite... is to make use of the Tannin component in tea to clean the wound and alleviate the poison.&quot; While Kogoro is flabbergasted that Conan is aware of what to do in a snake bite, Eri states, &quot;That boy is quite sharp. Compared to people like us, sitting here with our arms folded, he's much more of an asset. More importantly, the ex-policeman here doesn't seem to know a thing about this.&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[The Celebrities' Secret]], is the first case that does go more into detail about Conan's first aid skills, such as giving sugar sticks to a person who attempted suicide with a hypoglycemic drug, which is used to treat Diabetes. The other case that showed his first aid skills was in Scuba Diving Murder Case, when he quickly grabbed a glass of ice tea, due to the needed Tannin, in order to combat the poisonous snake bite. In the other case, he handed the tea to the rescuers, however in this case, he began administering it himself.<br /> <br /> <br /> In all three cases, the person survived, due to his first aid knowledge and skills.<br /> <br /> However, this is just three of the cases that showcases it, or two in the anime.<br /> <br /> === Stamina ===<br /> It is hard to say about his stamina, since he was shrunk down to Conan. <br /> It obviously is not as good, when he is in his 17 year old body, since he now has the body of a 7 year old.<br /> <br /> Without Agasa's gadgets, His strength is also that of a 7 year old too, which includes his kicking strength as well.<br /> <br /> However, he is a very active, and maybe hyperactive little kid, who frequently uses his feet and legs, whether running, kicking, and skateboarding around the town. So his feet and leg muscles are probably stronger than when he was first shrunk, but still..., he would be toast without the professor's Gadgets, and especcially his super kick shoes.<br /> <br /> He probably has normal stamina for a little kid, although some of the feats, and esp. in non-cannon movies, may seem to exaggerate his stamina, but even in the scene when Ran was pushed in front of a moving train, and Conan immediately jumped down, grabbed her, and dragged her to safety, he was panting afterwards.<br /> <br /> === Music ===<br /> [[File:Conan singing.JPG|thumb|right|200px|Conan sings in the Karaoke.]]<br /> Conan cannot sing on key in the slightest so he is often accused of being [[Wikipedia:tone deaf|tone deaf]]. Despite being a hilariously awful singer, Conan has [[Wikipedia:perfect pitch|perfect pitch]] and can identify notes accurately even in difficult contexts like the sound of phone button presses forming a melody. In Episode 11: The Moonlight Sonata Murder Case, he knows that the piano is in tune and deciphers a message at the end just by listening to the notes that are played. Haibara directly described Shinichi Kudo as having perfect pitch in the last scenes of the twelfth Detective Conan movie, [[Full Score of Fear]]. He also manages to replicate and sing dial tones for a phone, showing that the reason he can't sing is because he simply doesn't have ''relative'' pitch. In File 728 (Episode 614), Conan stated he isn't very knowledgeable about music but identified the untuned piano key whereupon Haibara joked about his sharp ears despite being tone-deaf.<br /> <br /> Also, to be like his favorite detective, Sherlock Holmes, he plays the violin. This was confirmed in movie 12 of the 'Full Score of Fear' when he played &quot;Amazing Grace&quot; for Ran. However, he is stumped on what Ran meant when she said, &quot;He has a funny habit when he plays.&quot;<br /> <br /> === Bomb defusion ===<br /> Conan can defuse a bomb effortlessly without external instruction. This has been demonstrated once in canon, and multiple times in movies.<br /> <br /> In [[The Trembling Police Headquarters: 12 Million Hostages]], when Conan was in the area with the bomb, which only he could reach, while the Bomb squad was trying to determine the kind of bomb that Conan is with, so that they can give the little boy instructions in how to disarm the bomb.<br /> <br /> <br /> He had already began disarming it, and only stopped, when he realized if he waited until 3 seconds before the detonation, he will receive a hint as to the location of another bomb, so he hesitated, and discovered that it was Teitan High School, with the letters E-V-I-T. He also managed to disarm it before it blew up.<br /> <br /> <br /> === Criminal psychology ===<br /> Conan shows a keen understanding for criminal psychology, occasionally being able to sense if someone is the true criminal. He can also predict movement and plan of the criminals, and in some cases, he used this skill to &quot;bluff&quot;. By deliberately giving wrong deduction, he managed to make the criminal reveal the key evidence of the case, confess, abandon suicide's attempt, or lead them to the wrong ends (if they are chasing Conan).<br /> <br /> In non canon, it was shown that if the criminal doesn't conform to the general intellectual pattern, Conan will have trouble deducing their crime, even if it is so obvious that the Detective Boys can deduce perfectly.<br /> <br /> [[File:Conan First met Kaito Kid.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan introduces himself to Kaito Kid when they first met. &quot;Conan Edogawa, a detective!&quot; in [[Episode One: The Great Detective Turned Small|Episode One]].]]<br /> <br /> === Reverse Psychology ===<br /> In the Clash of Red and Black Arc, he planned along with Shuichi how to replace Kir ack undercover in the Black Organization, without telling the rest of the FBI until it was over, however he did have to outhink Gin.<br /> <br /> He really had to outthink Gin, and implement Reverse Psychology, if not Reverse Reverse Psychology when planning Akai's Faked death at Railla Pass. <br /> <br /> They knew that Kir would have to prove herself by killing Akai, and that Gin always kills with headshots, so he would demand that of her.<br /> <br /> He also knew it would be at Railla Pass, and used Kusada's body, thanks to that spy shooting himself in the head and commiting suicide.<br /> <br /> He also knew since Kusada had already touched his phone, make it look to the other FBI Members that Akai touched Conan's phone, but Akai had some substance to keep his fingerprints off of it entirely.<br /> <br /> In short, Conan had to predict what Gin would demand and where at, along with Kir and Akai, and at the same time, making Gin think that it is all &quot;his own idea.&quot;<br /> <br /> The only ones allowed in on the following secrets:<br /> <br /> Placing Kir back undercover:<br /> Conan, who planned it<br /> Akai<br /> Kir<br /> Andre Camel, who had to drive her.<br /> <br /> The other FBI members did not find out until she was placed back undercover, otherwise, they may have given the act away.<br /> <br /> Akai's Faked Death:<br /> Conan, who planned it, and even arranged Akai to meet his Mom and Agasa somewhere else to help his new disguise.<br /> Kir, who was to kill him in order to prove herself to Gin<br /> Akai, who was to die<br /> James Black, who noticed the glue or substance to Akai's fingertips, just prior to the fateful meeting.<br /> <br /> No one else was let in on that secret at all, until the scarlet episodes, when Jodie and Camel finally learned about it, including Bourbon, who figured it out due to his own keen observation skills.<br /> <br /> === &quot;7 Children&quot; or &quot;[[Nanatsu no Ko]]&quot; Alertness ===<br /> This can also be called the Boss's E-Mail Address Alertness as well.<br /> <br /> After Conan's confrontation with Vermouth, when he appeared to still be unconscious from his own tranquilizer dart, he heard her press the digits on her cell phone in order to reply to &quot;BOSS&quot; of the Black Organization at the end of Head to Head Halloween Party episode.<br /> <br /> He remembered the sounds of the digits being pressed when she was dialing the boss's e-mail address in order to respond to a message that he had sent her. <br /> <br /> Conan may be tone deaf, but he does have Perfect Pitch and can recognize the tune of the Boss's e-mail address.<br /> <br /> At the end of The Dissonance of the Stradivarius Episode 387, he found out those digits are for the song of &quot;7 Children&quot; or &quot;Nanatsu no Ko,&quot; which happens to the the Boss of the Black Organization's E-mail address.<br /> <br /> He can recognize that tune in an instant, and immediately is on the hunt for the Black Organization Member, who just e-mailed their Boss. <br /> He cannot even pretend to act normally when he hears this tune. <br /> <br /> Even just the first four digits place him on high alert, before he discovered the name of the tune. <br /> <br /> Even though Haibara stated that the e-mail address is a Pandora Box, which should never be opened, or dialed.<br /> <br /> Since he can recognize the Boss's e-mail immediately, which has shown a number of times:<br /> <br /> After his bug and transmitter, accidentally fell on the ground, and Rena stepped on it, he immediately heard her dial the Boss's e-mail address, and found out her code name of Kir, among other stuff.<br /> <br /> That tune also came in handy at finding out that a Black Organization Spy had infiltrated Haido Central Hospital, where Kir was hospitalized due to the e-mail being dialed.<br /> <br /> Even in the Non-cannon movie: The Raven Chaser, after Conan found out that the Boss's E-mailed had been dialed, he immediatley chased after a disguised Vermouth, and saw her enter Gin's Porsch. Unfortunately, Irish, another disguised Black Organization Member, who was impersonating the Superintendant Kiyonaga Matsumoto, noticed Conan's behavior, and immediately began investigating Conan, and he even managed to obtain Conan's fingerprints and match them to Kudo Shinichi's fingerprints, when he held that mask and helmet in the Desperate Revival Festival, earlier.<br /> He may not have noticed, if it was not for the Panic Mode or Near Panic Mode that this number and song instills in Conan.<br /> <br /> === Computer skills ===<br /> Conan has some programming skills, for being able to create Mouri Detective Agency's website. He doesn't have the knowledge of hacking, at least he is not able to crack Black Organization's encrypted data.<br /> <br /> === Kaitou Kid radar ===<br /> Conan occasionally seems to be able to sense if [[Kaitou Kid]] is present at a crime scene.&lt;ref&gt;Black Star&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;Luna Memoria File 964 page 10&lt;/ref&gt; Unlike [[Shiho Miyano#&quot;Black Organization sense&quot;|Haibara's &quot;Black Organization smell&quot; sense]], Conan's Kid detector isn't very reliable.<br /> <br /> <br /> === Codebreaker and Codewriter ===<br /> He is great at discovering codes, as well as deciphering them. <br /> <br /> He frequently is able to deciphering Kid's codes, among many others.<br /> In the paper airplane episode, Subaru and Conan, both managed to decipher the aiplanes' codes at about the same time.<br /> In The Trembling Police Headquarters: 12 Million Hostages Episode 304, he was also able to decipher from E-V-I-T, that the next bomb was Teitan High School.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> He has even been shown to be able to write codes as well.<br /> <br /> In Sweet and Cold Delivery Service, when Conan, Haibara, Mitsuhiko, Genta, and Ayumi, were locked in a freezing delivery van, without their cell phones, and all they had on hand were some odds and ends, taxi receipt, and Tails, the cat,.<br /> <br /> <br /> Conan managed to create a code out of the Taxi Receipt, which would look like trash to almost everyone, except the only person, who would be able to decipher it in an instant, BOURBON, who works at Cafe Poirot, and Tails makes his stop there everyday at around this time. The code basically read, COR...P..SE,&quot; and the license plate number.<br /> <br /> <br /> He then placed the note in Tails' collar, who managed to escape. However, when Azusa was about to hand the note to Amuro, it blew away in the wind, only for Bourbon to find out the spelling from Azusa, and pieced together instantly, &quot;Corpse.&quot; After Azusa stated that Conan knows the cat comes here everyday, he took the rest of the day off work to track the note using his Wind App, taking into account the location of building. <br /> <br /> <br /> While Amuro was still tracking that note, the kids were getting in even worse shape, since they are freezing, and most likely none of Conan's gadgets would work. <br /> <br /> <br /> Conan remembered the cake that Agasa ordered for a delivery at a special time, located it, and wrote a message to redirect the cake to the Kudo Residence, where Subaru is living, and redirected it, &quot;In care of Mr Kudu,&quot; and even added a message in the customer's copy of the receipt so that Subaru would know that they are trapped in the delivery van.<br /> <br /> <br /> Subaru sent a package, which was really a cell phone to help the kids, and ... It is a good thing that Amuro managed to track the delivery van, but he simply acted like he was passing by, and told the kids that the wind blew away their message. <br /> <br /> <br /> After disabling the culprits, Conan was able to use that phone to call the police.<br /> <br /> == Appellations ==<br /> Although most people will call Conan by his name suffixed with ''-kun'', or simply ''kid'', a lot of the characters have different ways of calling him due to the special relationships they share.

At the suggestion of Agasa, he moves in with Ran and Kogoro, hoping that cases related to them come by. Pretty soon, a case involving a woman name [[Akemi Miyano]] (using the alias Masami Hirota) appears. Akemi robs a bank for the men in black in the hopes that they will free her sister from their organization. Conan is unable to realize the case's connection to the organization until after the men in black have shot Akemi and left her for dead rather than give up such a valuable asset as her sister. In her dying moments, Akemi warns Conan of the danger of the organization.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 2#File 013 - The Missing Man|Volume 2, Files 13-16: &quot;The Missing Man&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> Conan runs across the men in black again on a bullet train, this time learning their codenames: [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]].<br /> <br /> At a game convention, Conan meets a third man in black named [[Tequila]], only to have him die in an explosion meant for someone else. Conan learns about a meeting place from the murderer, but just before he reaches the bar an explosion set by the men in black destroys the place entirely, leaving Conan without any leads.<br /> <br /> === Introduction of Ai Haibara===<br /> Later on, Conan meets child-size biochemist [[Ai Haibara]], the creator of [[APTX 4869]]. Ai grew up within the Black Organization as [[Shiho Miyano]] and is a former member of it along with her deceased sister, Akemi.&lt;ref name=&quot;f178&quot;&gt;[[Volume_18#File 178 - Code Name Sherry|Volume 18, File 178: &quot;Code Name Sherry&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt; After Akemi died, Shiho refused to keep working and took APTX 4869 to die before the Black Organization could execute her. Instead, she shrinks like Conan did and is adopted by Agasa so she and Conan can work together to find a cure and catch the men in black.<br /> <br /> However, when she really introduced herself to him at night in front of the Kudo and Agasa's house, she did it in a way, where she showed that she can be quite evil, like the rest of the Black Organization, even telling him that Agasa, who is his lifeline to being a detective in his child's body is dead, really freaking him out. When he went to Agasa, he was alive and well, and all three spoke, but ... <br /> <br /> After the professor case, he saw her real tears, when she was crying in his shirt, and since then their relationship has improved dramatically, and they even protect each other. <br /> <br /> <br /> She is also helping him to be more cautious than his initial, &quot;The Black Organization is involved. I am scared, but I will hunt them down, and try and get the antidote,&quot; without thinking of the consequences. <br /> <br /> <br /> He is still determined to take down that organization, but he is now wiser than he was at in, whereas, she is more inclined to err on the side of caution, &quot;Stop. Don't Go. Stay out of this,&quot; which will not take the organization down, but may keep them safer.<br /> <br /> In regards toe the Black Organization, they both have a tendency to withhold information in order to protect the other one. <br /> It is difficult to know just how much she knows of the Organization's leaders and such, but she feels if she tells him anything, until it comes up, he may carelessly act on it. <br /> <br /> When Conan found out that 7 children was the Boss's e-mail address, his initial thought was to have Takagi investigate it, until she told him that &quot;He will die. Takagi as soon as he reaches that person, and then they will find out who gave him that number, and you will die next.<br /> The e-mail address is a Pandora's box that should never be opened.<br /> <br /> In return, Conan protects her a lot in regards to the organization: saving her life, withholding risky information, and coming up with plans to save her life, when she has been found out, and trying to hide her from them.<br /> <br /> === Meeting with the Black Organization ===<br /> In [[Reunion with the Black Organization]] Conan and Haibara crosses paths with them at an hotel party while trying to prevent someone from dying at the hands of the organization. While there, Haibara is kidnapped by one of the members of the organization, [[Pisco]]. Conan manages to save Haibara and also learn about [[Anokata]]<br /> <br /> === After Vermouth ===<br /> <br /> === The Phone Number of 'That Person' ===<br /> After Conan solves a [[The Dissonance of the Stradivarius#Postlude|case]] of serial murders, the [[Kyosuke Haga#Friends and acquaintances|culprit]] tells Conan that the tune created by dialing the phone number for the Leader of the Black Organization is the song &quot;[[Seven Children]]&quot;.<br /> <br /> === Returning Back to Shinichi ===<br /> Throughout the series Conan has returned back to Shinichi several times, but never permanently. <br /> ==== East versus West Detective ====<br /> First he temporary returns to normal after drinking alcohol while infected with a cold.&lt;ref&gt;[[Diplomat Murder Case|Episodes 48-49: Diplomat Murder Case]].&lt;/ref&gt; <br /> He quickly turns back into Conan after solving the case and develops an immunity to the alcohol.<br /> <br /> ==== Desperate revival ====<br /> {{Main|Prototype antidote}}<br /> Haibara invented an [[Prototype antidote|antidote]] prototype for the APTX 4869, and Conan first uses it in [[Volume 26]] to conceal his identity and allay Ran's suspicions that he is Shinichi. Haibara disguises as Conan and appears in front of Ran with Shinichi in order to put Ran's fears to rest.&lt;ref&gt;[[The Desperate Revival|Episodes 191-193: The Desperate Revival]].&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 26#File 256 - Concealed Truth|Volume 26, Files 256-258: &quot;Concealed Truth&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> ==== Shiragami case ====<br /> The antidote prototype is again taken, this time accidentally in place of cough syrup. It wears off 24 hours later, with Haibara giving him another one to protect his identity. This time it wears off in a shortened 4 hours, once again interrupting his chance to confess his feelings to Ran.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 62#File 647 - The Lost Memory|Volumes 62-63, Files 647-654: &quot;The Lost Memory&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> ==== London Arc ====<br /> During the Holmes' Revelation arc in London, Conan takes an antidote so he can go overseas, because &quot;Conan Edogawa&quot; does not exist in real life, and has no passport. Ran quickly deduces that Shinichi is in London as well. She asks some Londoners about a Japanese boy, and they give her directions, without specifying it was actually a six-year-old they saw. In a phone booth, Conan takes the pill originally meant for his return trip to Tokyo in order to conceal his identity from Ran. During this time, he manages to confess his feelings to her. Luckily for Conan, Haibara asks Yusaku and Yukiko Kudo, his parents, to go to London and give him a third pill, as she guessed he would have used his spare one for Ran.&lt;ref&gt;[[Holmes' Revelation|Episode 616-621]]&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 71#Following Holmes|Volume 71, Files 743-751]]&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 72#Following Holmes|Volume 72, File 752]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> == Non-canon plot overview ==<br /> <br /> == Relationships analysis ==<br /> === Family and friends ===<br /> ==== Ran Mouri ====<br /> [[File:Ran and Conan.jpg|thumb|200px|Ran holding Conan.]]<br /> {{main|Shinichi Kudo and Ran Mouri}}<br /> Although they are romantic interests as Shinichi and Ran, Conan and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] share a brother/sister kind of relationship. Ran plays a nurturing protective role and treats Conan like a child version of Shinichi. They do a lot of activities together, such as swimming, going to the movies or festivals, and more. Ran and Conan both look out for each other's well-being. Ran stands up for Conan during Kogoro's outbursts and destroys any criminals seeking to inflict harm on Conan with her karate. Conan lends an ear and advice when Ran is in an difficult situation or needs to vent, and he comforts and encourages her when she is feeling down, especially about Shinichi being away for so long. It is even likely that Ran subconsciously knows that Conan actually ''is'' Shinichi, even though she seems reluctant to follow that notion.&lt;ref&gt;Ran told Conan that if only he is Shinichi on Episode 308.&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> {{clearright}}<br /> <br /> ==== Kogoro Mouri ====<br /> [[File:Kogoro noticing Conan in the car.jpg|thumb|200px|Kogoro noticing Conan in the car.]]<br /> [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] and Conan most often see each other as nuisances. Conan dislikes Kogoro's usually poor detective ability and case handling, slovenly personal habits, and overinflated ego. Kogoro's deduction doesn't seem to improve so Conan almost always needs to knock Kogoro out when he starts spouting off incorrect theories. Although in most cases Conan merely sees Kogoro as a drunk idiot, he often is impressed when Kogoro gets serious and actually gets the case right, so he will allow the &quot;non-sleeping Kogoro&quot; to take the spotlight. Kogoro views Conan as a freeloader who constantly gets underfoot and never fails to insinuate himself at cases, &quot;interfere&quot; with the scene, and pipe up with childish observations that consistently ruin Kogoro's deductions. Sometimes, Kogoro will also grab Conan by the jacket, leave him outside, or knock him on the head if he is too nosy when involved in a case. However, their relationship is actually intimate and Kogoro takes care of Conan just like a member of the house. At times when Conan is in danger or his life is in peril, Kogoro is seen to be visibly distressed, focused only on getting Conan back. In one episode where Conan was kidnapped, put into a car, and the car was in the process of being crushed, Kogoro was even in tears at Conan's apparent death but then rejoiced tearfully when he was shown to be unharmed. <br /> Conan in return does everything in his power to protect Kogoro from getting into troubles with the Black Organization, saving his life multiple times whenever Kogoro unknowingly gets involved with them.<br /> They are usually seen going to cases together (probably because Conan sneaks along with Kogoro, inserts himself into the case, or simply annoys Kogoro enough to bring him) and sometimes they'll follow Ran whenever they think she might be off to see a boy or &quot;that detective brat&quot; as Kogoro refers to Shinichi. <br /> {{clearright}}<br /> <br /> ==== Yusaku and Yukiko Kudo ====<br /> [[File:783-2.jpg|thumb|200px|Yukiko nearly calls Conan &quot;Shinichi&quot; in public]]<br /> Conan's parents, [[Yusaku Kudo|Yusaku]] and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]], like to push their child towards becoming an even better detective. They enjoy giving him challenges, typically without letting Conan know who's giving them; once they disguised as Black Organization operatives trying to kill Shinichi Kudo in order to show Conan how dangerous his goals are. However after seeing that their son is determent to dive into the matter, they decide to follow his wish, and even helps him out with disguises and plans.<br /> <br /> Yukiko loves to meddle in Conan's (and Shinichi's) love life, as she will often make allusions regarding Ran being her possible future daughter-in-law and Ai or Ayumi having feelings for Conan. He doesn't usually pay much attention to them. Once she told Conan that Ai has romantic feelings for him because she looked at him ten times in a short span of time, saying that the only time a girl would do that is if she likes the boy or the boy has something on his face. Conan simply pushes it off as Ai checking on her &quot;lab mouse,&quot; but at night, in bed, Conan asks Ai if he has something on his face.<br /> <br /> Yukiko helped him out once to keep his secret identity from being exposed to Ran by creating an alibi for him. Yukiko once nearly called Conan &quot;Shinichi&quot; in public but Conan was able to cover it by creating a distraction.<br /> {{clearright}}<br /> <br /> ==== Hiroshi Agasa ====<br /> [[image:Agasa and Conan investigating.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan investigates with Agasa.]]<br /> Conan treats [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]] as a member of his own family, like an uncle. Due to the fact that they both share the secret behind Shinichi's transformation and knowledge about the Black Organization, Conan often comes to him when in trouble or seeking for help. Agasa's willingness to help whenever possible makes Shinichi's life as Conan more convenient. He was the one who created most of Conan's gadgets, including his power shoes and tracking glasses. He willingly plays Conan's case solving mouthpiece when Conan lacks someone else convenient to use. When Conan needs something, such as information regarding past cases, he usually asks Agasa to get it. Agasa often acts as a chauffeur because he is trustworthy and the only adult with a car regularly available.<br /> <br /> Agasa often worries about Shinichi, especially when he thinks Shinichi might be getting over his head. Agasa almost always responds positively to Shinichi's requests, but doesn't like it when Shinichi hides the reasons for it, especially if it is dangerous. <br /> {{clearright}}<br /> <br /> ==== &quot;Shinichi Kudo&quot; ====<br /> [[File:EP398 2.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan and Shinichi.]]<br /> They never meet each other for obvious reasons: Conan is Shinichi's secret identity. However, since Conan tries to act as a child, he often thinks Shinichi as a separate character (in one episode, when Ran claims to go to a date with Shinichi, Conan bids goodbye, oblivious for a while that he is actually Shinichi). Judging from his completely made up speech, Conan talks to Shinichi frequently by phone and learns a lot of skills and knowledge from him, and Conan really admires and loves Shinichi. In turn, Shinichi is willing to satiate Conan's curiosity, but at one point he gets really annoyed for Conan's inquisitiveness.<br /> <br /> ==== Heiji Hattori ====<br /> [[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]<br /> When they first meet, Conan and [[Heiji Hattori|Heiji]] seem bound to become lifelong rivals, especially after Kudo beats Heiji in their first case. However, after discovering Conan's real identity, Heiji starts to act like an older brother towards him, much to the annoyance of Conan. Since then, the two have become closest friends, and consult one another on cases, developments concerning the Black Organization, and even their &quot;girlfriends&quot;. They tend to stick together on cases, although sometimes this is because Heiji forces the less enthusiastic Conan to come along. While fond of Heiji as a fellow detective he can relate to, Conan finds Heiji's antics occasionally annoying. Much to Conan's chagrin, Heiji even convinces others that Conan is his disciple. Conan especially dislikes Heiji's dangerous habit of unthinkingly calling Conan 'Kudo' when others are present. <br /> <br /> Heiji still maintains some of his original feelings of rivalry, and gets annoyed if anyone claims Shinichi is better , and will often go to great lengths to show that the &quot;west&quot; (Osaka) is better than the &quot;east&quot; (Tokyo). Shinichi usually starts off acting like he is disinterested in the frivolous competition, but may then become competitive himself if Heiji starts &quot;winning&quot; or someone bruises his ego. Others, like Ran and Kazuha, see them both as equally skilled detectives. Despite his teasing, Conan/Shinichi genuinely thinks Kazuha and Heiji would make a great couple.<br /> {{clearright}}<br /> <br /> ==== Sonoko Suzuki ====<br /> She frequently talks to him like a brat and primary school kid, and he thinks of her as annoying.<br /> <br /> ==== Masumi Sera ====<br /> Masumi Sera is like an older sister figure to Conan. She knows that Conan is actually Shinichi Kudo. She is a mystery but is revealed to be the sister of Shuichi Akai and Shukichi Haneda. Conan takes Sera to be like a fellow detective, similar to how he treats Heiji and Saguru. Sera in return, is very protective of him and also seems to have a crush on him, calling him a &quot;wizard&quot;; because when they first met 10 years ago, Shinichi/Conan was able to make her brother Shuichi laugh when she couldn't.<br /> <br /> ==== Eisuke Hondou ====<br /> Eisuke discovered that Conan is the real Sleeping Kogoro before they even first met. Conan found him suspicious due to his resemblance of Rena Mizunashi. Eisuke was quick to notice that Conan's behavior towards Ran was similar to that of a protective boyfriend and decided to monitor him. Eventually, Conan found that he is the younger brother of Rena who is a member of CIA infiltrating the organization, the relationship between the two seems to have improved somehow after Conan reveals his identity to Eisuke without hesitating refusing his offer to take Ran with him in America. At that moment, Eisuke confesses to Conan in an amicable way that he was aware from the beginning that he was sleeping Kogoro and Shinichi Kudo. He asked Conan to take care of Ran and the two leave on good terms.<br /> <br /> ==== Shukichi Haneda ====<br /> Shukichi seems to have noticed Conan's intelligence and trusted his deductions the first time they met. Shinichi has met Shukichi in the past as a child, so it's possible that Shukichi might recognize him as Conan because of his memorization skills, and also due to Shukichi calling Conan a Wizard, the same nickname that Masumi attributed to Shinichi when they met 10 years ago.<br /> <br /> === Detective Boys ===<br /> [[File:Conan and Ai.jpg|thumb|200px|Conan and Haibara investigating]]<br /> [[File:conan scary face.png|thumb|left|200px|Conan's scary face when he's intending to know Haibara's secret song]]<br /> ==== Ai Haibara ====<br /> {{main|Conan Edogawa and Ai Haibara}}<br /> Both are de-aged by APTX4869 and have almost equal levels of intelligence, which makes [[Ai Haibara]] and Conan close confidants and more empathetic with each other than most other characters. They share an interesting relationship. They believe and rely on each other. She certainly has no qualms about teasing him, and is more than willing to poke a hole in his ego. While Conan initially was disgusted by Ai's ties to the Black Organization, especially with how she introduced herself, seeing her remorse and pain has improved his opinion of her. He is repeatedly protective of her and tries to give her hope when her fear of the men in black is overwhelming. <br /> <br /> <br /> However, when she really introduced herself to him at night in front of the [[Kudo]] and [[Agasa|Agasa's]] house, she did it in a way, where she showed that she can be quite evil, like the rest of the [[Black Organization]], even telling him that Agasa, who is his lifeline to being a detective in his child's body is dead, really freaking him out. When he went to Agasa, he was alive and well, and all three spoke, but ... <br /> <br /> After the professor case, he saw her real tears, when she was crying in his shirt, and since then their relationship has improved dramatically, and they even protect each other. <br /> <br /> <br /> She is also helping him to be more cautious than his initial, &quot;The Black Organization is involved. I am scared, but I will hunt them down, and try and get the antidote,&quot; without thinking of the consequences. <br /> <br /> <br /> He is still determined to take down that organization, but he is now wiser than he was at in, whereas, she is more inclined to err on the side of caution, &quot;Stop. Don't Go. Stay out of this,&quot; which will not take the organization down, but may keep them safer.<br /> <br /> <br /> In regards toe the Black Organization, they both have a tendency to withhold information in order to protect the other one. <br /> It is difficult to know just how much she knows of the Organization's leaders and such, but she feels if she tells him anything, until it comes up, he may carelessly act on it. <br /> <br /> When Conan found out that [[Nanatsu no Ko|7 children]] was the [[Boss]]'s e-mail address, his initial thought was to have [[Takagi]] investigate it, until she told him that &quot;He will die. Takagi as soon as he reaches that person, and then they will find out who gave him that number, and you will die next.<br /> The e-mail address is a Pandora's box that should never be opened.<br /> <br /> In return, Conan protects her a lot in regards to the organization: saving her life, withholding risky information, and coming up with plans to save her life, when she has been found out, and trying to hide her from them.<br /> <br /> ==== Ayumi Yoshida ====<br /> [[File:759-3.png|thumb|200px|Sonoko is teasing Conan about Ayumi]]<br /> {{main|Conan Edogawa and Ayumi Yoshida}}<br /> Conan grows to respect the little girl in his class for her sharp wit and observational skills, along with the other members of the [[Detective Boys]]. [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]] in turn clearly seems to like Conan and isn't aware that the other two Detective Boys are jealous of him because of this. Sonoko is also thinking the same after Sera teased Conan about the girl he likes.<br /> <br /> ==== Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya and Genta Kojima ====<br /> [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]] sees Conan as a role model, someone he looks up to. [[Genta Kojima|Genta]], and more so Mitsuhiko, are often impressed by Conan's vast knowledge and incredible deduction skills. However, they both become quite jealous of Conan whenever Ayumi shows gestures of affection towards him (usually a small kiss on the cheek). While Conan initially only tolerated their presence, he has grown fond of them despite their relative immaturity.<br /> In a case, where Genta's father was a suspect, Conan decided to solve the case without telling the other, because he didn't want Genta to worry about his father being a suspect for murder.<br /> <br /> === Law enforcement ===<br /> ==== Police ====<br /> [[File:Megure and Conan Relationship.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Megure waffles between treating Conan like a child and a detective]]<br /> With the exception of a few inspectors, most listen to the little clues that Conan points out. After a while, Conan gets the attention of the whole Tokyo police department for noticing things even pros miss. [[Wataru Takagi]] in particular has taken to trusting Conan completely and doing whatever Conan asks him to without hesitation. Even [[Sato]] also treats him more like a detective.<br /> <br /> In fact, even when Takagi is hesitant to do what Conan asks of him, as soon as Sato hears Conan's name, she immediately will take action or give him information sometimes.<br /> <br /> After [[Hyoue Kuroda]] became the superintendent of the Tokyo Prefecture, he has told Takagi and [[Megure]] to do what Conan asks of them in the [[The Actress Blogger's Locked Room Case|Actress Blogger Case]]. <br /> <br /> <br /> He even periodically referrs to Conan as &quot;Sleeping Kogoro's Bag of Wisdom&quot; in front of the other police officers, such as: Nagano Police Prefecture Officers, [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] and Inspector [[Yuminaga]], as well as Bourbon, who he instructed to answer all of Conan's questions, when he realized that Conan was also investigating the case of [[The Target is the Metropolitan Police Traffic Department]].<br /> <br /> ==== Wataru Takagi ====<br /> Wataru Takagi is the only police officer who has come the closest to finding out about [[Conan]]'s identity.<br /> <br /> In [[The Man from Chicago]], When Conan is telling the police officers present about the Panda colors of the Police Cars, and that the younger generation may not know this information about their black and white cars, Takagi asks himself, &quot;What generation is this kid from?&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[The Trembling Police Headquarters: 12 Million Hostages]], while they waited for the elevator bomb's clock to run down to give the final clue to stop the greater crime. Takagi asked Conan about his real identity to which Conan answered that he would in the afterlife. <br /> <br /> He also is aware of Conan's sharp intelligence and takes him seriously so as to take him for questioning the suspects. He trusts Conan so much that he would take him seriously.<br /> <br /> Takagi has also come to acknowledge Conan's sharp mind and intellect, taking Conan's observations seriously and even allowing him to accompany him to question suspects, most notably during the New Scar and the Whistling Man Case where he has the rest of the Detective Boys remain in the car. <br /> <br /> Conan also fully supports Takagi's relationship with Sato, at one point orchestrated a plan to foil [[Shiratori]]'s attempt of an arranged marriage with [[Sato]]. When asked for reasons, he didn't answer, but quietly relate the experience with Ran's relationship.<br /> <br /> ==== Miwako Sato ====<br /> [[File:EP424 5.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Miwako and Conan during a case Investigation]]<br /> <br /> She had developed deep trust of Conan and his intelligence from her real first time investigating with him, and seeing him in action in the case of [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story]].<br /> <br /> Even when Takagi is hesitant to do as Conan says, unquestioningly, she will immediately and unhesitantly do as he says, almost all of the time, since she first met him.<br /> <br /> ==== Kansuke Yamato ====<br /> Kansuke is one of the few police officers, who Conan can actually talk like an adult in front of. <br /> <br /> In [[A Dangerous Party of Two]], he even told [[Yui Uehara|Yui]] Uehara that he suspects Conan of being &quot;the one leading everything,&quot; in regards to [[Kogoro|Kogoro's]] cases, and that is after only after they met up in one case so far. <br /> <br /> In fact, in that car ride, they were giving [[Agasa]] and [[Haibara]] a lift back to Tokyo, but he really kept taking in a Nagano dialect, using phrases that terrified Haibara, such as &quot;Half-Kill&quot; and &quot;Over-Kill, which dealt with a kind of Mochi, and not what Agasa and Haibara were thinking of.&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> The reason why he and Yui were heading to Tokyo was to enlist Kogoro's help with the Red Wall Case, which Yui told Conan that it was really his help they were wanting.<br /> <br /> ==== Hyoue Kuroda ====<br /> [[Kuroda]] is aware how good Conan is as a detective, calling him &quot; Sleeping Kogoro's bag of wisdom&quot;, he also trusts his deductions and have already ordered the Tokyo police to follow Conan's Instructions. <br /> <br /> On the other hand, Conan is suspicious of Kuroda because he almost matches [[Rum]]'s description, he also became shocked that Kuroda became the Superintendent of Tokyo Police in [[Matsumoto]]'s place.<br /> <br /> In [[Kawanakajima Murder Case]], which was his first appearance, he already knew that Conan was 'The Brain behind Sleeping Kogoro,' and stated an entire dialogue stating his knowledge of Edogawa Conan in front of the Nagano Police Officers present, in his first speech to Conan.<br /> <br /> In [[Mystery of the Burning Tent|Mystery of the Burning Tent ]], He refers to Conan as &quot;Sleeping Kogoro's Bag of Wisdom&quot; to both: [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] and [[Inspector Yuminaga]].<br /> <br /> In [[The Target is the Metropolitan Police Traffic Department]], he also instructed Amuro to answer all of Conan's questions, when he realized that Conan was also investigating the case as well.<br /> <br /> ==== Rei Furuya ====<br /> [[Rei Furuya|Rei]] (Aliases as Tooru Amuro) has attached himself to the [[Mouri Detective Agency]] as [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]]'s &quot;apprentice&quot;. Conan initially treats him in a somewhat friendly manner, though he privately thinks &quot;another annoying person's showed up&quot; when he learns Rei will be joining Kogoro on cases. However, after he find out [[The Jet-Black Mystery Train|Amuro's membership in the Black Organization]], though, Conan has been relatively nervous about him being near [[Ran Mouri|Ran]]. This was made even worse when Rei caught him attempting to tranquilize Kogoro, but due to Rei's attentiveness, he was unable to, and had to give hints to Kogoro instead. Although Amuro may not have seen the trick, he became convinced that Conan was the puppeteer behind Sleeping Kogoro, and began investigating Conan, which only made Conan more nervous of him. Their relationship later seemed to improve in [[The Scarlet Return]] when Conan learns that Rei is actually an undercover operative from Japanese Secret Police when the two exchange smiles in Café Poirot. Conan even used his Voice Changing Bow Tie in front of Rei in [[The Heartfelt Strap]].<br /> <br /> When Shinichi Kudo exposed on the media due to [[The Scarlet School Trip|Kyoto Field Trip]], he receives an email from [[Rum]], ordering him to gather information about Shinichi. After he helped to solve the [[The Unsolved Cocktail Case|Bunny Girls Case]], Amuro broke into the Kudo home, so that he can find out information about [[Kudo Shinichi]]. He had the altercation with an [[Akai Shuichi|unmasked Akai]], and both of [[Yusaku Kudo|Shinichi's]] [[Yukiko Kudo|parents]] turned on the light, so that the four of them can have a meeting. Currently, it is unknown what was discussed in that meeting, other than Conan planned it.<br /> <br /> <br /> It seemed to become strained again in the movie: [[Zero the Enforcer]], however that is due to Amuro had his subordinate, [[Yuya Kazami]] of the [[Public Security Bureau|Japanese Secret Police- Public Security Bureau]], plant phony incriminating evidence against Kogoro Mouri for a bombing incident. However, it turns out that the framing was to use Conan as a Collaborator, and to rely on his strength so that Conan can do what he was unable to do for his investigate. This way, he was able to use Conan as a Collaborator, and to rely on his strength.<br /> <br /> === FBI ===<br /> The FBI contains most of the few people that Conan acts normally around despite them not knowing his identity. Conan seems to place trust in the FBI, and occasionally helps in their operations.<br /> <br /> ==== Shuichi Akai/Subaru Okiya ====<br /> [[File:The Scarlet Return-Shuichi and Conan.jpg|right|thumb|200px|Shuichi and Conan ([[The Scarlet Return|Ep. 782]])]]<br /> [[Shuichi Akai|Shuichi]] has been shown to respect Conan's detective skills. Together they hatched a plan to send Hidemi Hondou back into the organization and fake Akai's death. He has discovered that Conan and Shinichi are one and the same by spying on him in a [[Volume 77#File 814 - Conan-kun, Right?|recent plot line]]. Conan once says to Shuichi, &quot;I'm glad you're an ally.&quot;<br /> <br /> ==== Jodie Starling ====<br /> [[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] nicknamed Conan &quot;Cool Kid&quot; and Conan (despite being wary when he first met her) now places complete trust in Jodie. Jodie has also called Conan to share what would normally be classified information, notifying him of a new Black Organization member, Bourbon.<br /> <br /> === Black Organization ===<br /> ==== Gin and Vodka ====<br /> Even though [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] do not yet know who's interfering with their operations, Gin has been shown to be curious who &quot;that guy&quot; is, referring to Conan. In the movie [[The Raven Chaser]], Gin tries to catch a glimpse of Conan's face from a helicopter, but fails when Conan successfully downs the helicopter. Conan seems to have a very bitter hatred towards them, and this only increases as more people are targeted by the Black Organization.<br /> <br /> In [[Reunion with the Black Organization|Reunion of the Black Organization]], Gin had to shoot himself in the arm in order to stay awake, after he was shot with Conan's tranquilizer dart. <br /> He also found Conan's bug and transmitter in his car, however due to a strand of [[Haibara Ai|Haibara's]] hair, he is convinced it was [[Shiho Miyano|Sherry]], who planted them.<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Contact with the Black Organization]], Gin told Vodka &quot;You have to be always on guard. It seems there is Someone investigating about us, a Detective clever as a Fox,&quot; without being aware that it happens to apparently be a 7 year old little child.<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out ]], he found Conan's bug and transmitter on [[Kir|Kir's]] shoe, and immediately planned to exterminate [[Kogoro Mouri]], who he was convinced left the bug. When Conan kicked a soccer ball into the Detective Agency window, Gin decided to add another victim, the little kid. Thankfully, [[Akai]] made him think the bug and transmitter were planted by the FBI, which saved them both.<br /> <br /> ==== Vermouth ====<br /> [[Vermouth]] seems to have great personal interest in Conan, referring to him as the Black Organization's 'Silver Bullet' and her &quot;Cool Guy.&quot;<br /> <br /> She also protects Conan, probably because when she was disguising as a serial killer in New York she was saved by Conan (Shinichi at the time) and Ran. <br /> <br /> <br /> When the Organization plans on killing [[Kogoro]], and later Conan, she strongly objects to a degree where Gin suspects whether Kogoro is related to Vermouth. <br /> <br /> Because of this, Conan does not react strongly when she is mentioned, as opposed to [[Haibara]]. He also seems to consider her less of a threat than the other members because he is able to bargain with her about Haibara and knows Vermouth is keeping his secret for personal reasons.<br /> <br /> In [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|Head-to Head]], After Conan removed his Haibara mask, he was distracted, when Haibara showed up on the scene, which gave Vermouth the needed opening to use his stun gun wrist watch on him, to place him to sleep, before gently sitting him down beside the car, so he does not get hurt in the fall.<br /> <br /> She also destroyed the box that he was connected to by many wires, so as not to possibly accidentally kill or hurt him, which pulling out the wires would have, according to Conan. <br /> <br /> After she used sleeping gas, in order to knock him back out, so that she can escape, and not lead the Black Organization members to him.<br /> <br /> She even covered the sleeping boy up with her coat, so that he would not get sick, since she had literally cut his shirt wide open, in order to see the wires and connected box, which may have made him sick, if he is not found right away, since it is pretty cold, and colds are spreading at this time.<br /> <br /> <br /> She shot herself in the leg, and had to hobble some distance away from the car, so that he would remain out of sight, and no where around her, when Gin came to pick her up.<br /> <br /> In [[the Raven Chaser]], she even provided Conan with the name of [[Irish]], and gave him a little bit of information of why the Organization is interested in this serial murder case.<br /> <br /> <br /> In [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|Black Impact]], when she was speaking on the cell phone to [[Gin]], she mentioned hearing noise, and then she thought that Conan may have had something to do with the noise coming from Gin's car, and when Gin asked about what noise, she quickly &quot;Never mind. It is nothing,&quot; in order to protect Conan.<br /> <br /> === Others ===<br /> ==== Kaitou Kid ====<br /> {{Main|Shinichi Kudo and Kaito Kuroba}}<br /> Before being shrunk, Shinichi encountered [[Kaitou Kid]] once during the Clock Tower heist, though they did not meet face-to-face. In their next encounter, however, after Shinichi has become Conan, Kid disguises himself as Ran in order to steal the Suzuki family's Black Star pearl. When Conan corners him on the Suzuki cruise ship, Kid implies that he stole all of Ran's clothes to impersonate her, and left her naked on the deck. While this ends up being a bluff, Conan displays a much more intense desire to capture Kid in subsequent encounters. Conan stops Kid from escaping with the jewel often enough that Conan has gained reputation with the press as Kid's &quot;natural enemy&quot;. In several instances Conan appears to be able to 'sense' Kid's presence, and seems excited by the chance to catch Kid again; appropriately, Kid seems to find Conan dangerous enough to warrant specific measures to keep him distracted. <br /> <br /> [[File:704 20.png|thumb|200px|Kaitou Kid disguised as [[Shiho]] as requested from Conan]]<br /> <br /> Conan does not buy in to Kid's reputation as a mysterious, uncatchable phantom, saying once &quot;He's only a thief that uses magic&quot;,&lt;ref&gt;Anime Episode 515: Kaitou Kid's Teleportation Magic&lt;/ref&gt; and encouraging police officers that Kid is only a man and he can be arrested. However, if necessary, the two can put their rivalry aside for a little while and work together.&lt;ref&gt;[[Kaitou Kid and the Four Masterpieces]]&lt;/ref&gt; Conan has something of a gentleman's agreement with Kaitou Kid, in that he doesn't try to find or catch the thief outside of heists. In several instances, when Kid does Conan a favor, such as saving Genta's life&lt;ref&gt;[[Big Adventure in the Eccentric Mansion]]&lt;/ref&gt;, Conan reciprocates by halting his investigation just shy of capturing Kid, thereby allowing him to escape mostly unhindered. This exchange of favors can sometimes become a bit unbalanced; in exchange for not giving Kid away on a train Conan has Kid face down the [[Black Organization]] in disguise, and because Kid narrowly escapes an explosion with his life, he says that Conan now owes ''him'' one.&lt;ref&gt;Manga [[Volume 78]], File 7 (824): &quot;Mystery Train (Final Destination)&quot;&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> In the non-[[canon]] movies, it is implied that Kid knows Conan's identity; he even helps Conan maintain his cover by disguising himself as Shinichi so that a suspicious Ran would stop suspecting Conan.<br /> <br /> ==== [[Mary Sera]] ====<br /> Conan has been trying to discover the truth about [[Mary]] since the day he first saw her in a picture with Masumi Sera. In &quot;The detective boys in the grove&quot; case, he noticed Ai's uncanny resemblance to Mary. Then, he find out that the mysterious girl is the mother of Masumi Sera, Shukichi Haneda and Shuichi Akai and the wife of Tsutomu Akai, now somehow shrunken. On the other hand, Mary remains skeptical of Conan telling her daughter to be aware of him as he isn't the same boy they met 10 years ago.<br /> <br /> ==== [[Kanenori Wakita]] ====<br /> In his [[The Tokyo-Style Detective Show Next Door|introductory case]], Conan noticed that he had a medical patch on his left eye, although Wakita claims it is only temporary. He obviously chose not to see the messy left eye, along with Kogoro and Ran.<br /> <br /> In the [[Search for Maria-chan!]], while Conan is hiding at Agasa's due to the uproar or his appearance as Kudo Shinichi on a case, during his Kyoto Field Trip, he noticed that Wakita knocked on Agasa's door, and asked about all of the press stationed next door outside of the Kudo gate, while he claimed to be making a delivery to someone in the neighorhood. <br /> <br /> (He could have just asked the person that his delivery was for, but no. Let's ask the Kudos' [[Agasa Hiroshi|next door neighbor]]. Plus it is highly unlikely that [[Subaru]], the supposedly DEAD FBI agent, [[Akai]], who is residing in the [[Kudo Shinichi|Kudo]] house, which is the house to the supposedly dead teenage detective, would ever order for Delivery. Take-out, maybe, but not Delivery.)<br /> <br /> == People who know Conan's real identity ==<br /> {{main|List of characters who know Conan's identity}}<br /> There are only a few characters in the series who know Conan's real identity. None of them have ever betrayed Conan's identity to date. The main characters to know the secret are [[Hiroshi Agasa]], [[Yusaku Kudo]], [[Yukiko Kudo]], [[Heiji Hattori]], and [[Ai Haibara]]. [[Vermouth]] of the Black Organization also knows about Conan's secret. Later, in Episode 508 of the anime, [[Eisuke Hondou]] confirms Conan's identity as [[Shinichi Kudo]] straight from him. In manga chapter 812-814, [[Subaru Okiya]] ([[Shuichi Akai]] in disguise) confirms that Conan is Shinichi. [[Masumi Sera]] also knows that Conan is Shinichi Kudo before they even first met. It is also hinted that [[Mary]] knows about Conan's true identity, telling her daughter Masumi to be wary of him.<br /> <br /> In the 13th movie, the Black Organization member [[Irish]] discovers that Conan is actually Shinichi Kudo.<br /> <br /> The 3rd, 8th, 14th, 19th and 23th movies also demonstrate that [[Kaitou Kid]] apparently knows Conan's identity and acts to protect it. Though it was once unconfirmed if he knew in the manga, it was recently confirmed in the Fairy Lips case, where Kid thinks that there are &quot;two high school detectives&quot; on the scene, referring to Heiji, and Conan, the only other high school detective there. It is unknown how he came to figure this out.<br /> <br /> == People who know that Conan is behind the &quot;Sleeping Kogoro&quot; ==<br /> {{main|List of characters who know Conan is Sleeping Kogoro}}<br /> There is even a varied list of those who know that Conan is the puppeteer behind the &quot;Sleeping Kogoro.&quot;<br /> <br /> == Gadgets ==<br /> {{main|Gadgets}}<br /> Professor Agasa has made many gadgets for Conan, including a tranquilizer wristwatch, voice-modulating bow tie, kick-enhancing shoes, tracking/binocular glasses, stretchable suspenders, and a solar powered skateboard. Conan uses the first two regularly to create &quot;Sleeping Kogoro&quot;, and the glasses and other gadgets to investigate cases or catch criminals. Agasa also created radio badges and watch flashlights Conan and the other Detective Boys.<br /> <br /> == Character popularity ==<br /> * eBookJapan held a character popularity poll from April 12, 2011 to May 12, 2011 in which readers of Detective Conan (international included) could vote for their favorite character. Conan placed 3rd in the poll with 866 votes out of the 5,883 that were cast.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.ebookjapan.jp/ebj/special/conan/vote_kekka2.asp|title=『名探偵コナン』 人気投票結|date=2011-05-12|publisher=eBookJapan|accessdate=2011-05-15}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> * In honor of the release of the 15th movie, [[Quarter of Silence]], the official Conan movie website held a popularity poll for the top 10 Detective Conan characters. Shinichi/Conan placed 1st out of 10 with 30.46% of the votes cast.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.conan-movie.jp/camp_chara/camp15th_res.html|title=名探偵コナン「キャラクター人気投票」|date=2011|publisher=www.conan-movie.jp|accessdate=2011-08-12}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> * In honor of the release of the 800th manga chapter, Shonen Sunday held a popularity poll/contest containing 91 Detective Conan characters to choose from. Conan placed 1st overall with 2,843 votes.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=http://forum.dctp.ws/index.php?topic=8024.msg651566#msg651566|title=Shonen magazine detective conan official poll results published [magazine pic]|date=2012-02-28|publisher=eva|accessdate=2012-02-29}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> * In a poll held on June 5, 2020 by asking women age 20 to 40 who were their favourite Detective Conan character, Conan ranked first&lt;ref&gt;https://www.reddit.com/r/OneTruthPrevails/comments/hjkevu/detective_conan_character_popularity_poll_june_5/&lt;/ref&gt;.<br /> <br /> == Name origin ==<br /> Gosho Aoyama (and Shinichi, in the story) got the name 'Conan Edogawa' from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, author of the famous Sherlock Holmes stories, and Edogawa Rampo, the pen name of Japanese mystery fiction writer Hirai Tarō. Hirai Tarō himself got the pen name &quot;Edogawa Rampo&quot; from a transliteration of &quot;Edgar Allan Poe.&quot; Pronouncing Poe's name in a Japanese accent sounds like 'Edogawa Rampo.'<br /> <br /> == Character inspiration ==<br /> Gosho said Conan's hairstyle was designed in about one minute. He smoothed [[Yaiba]]'s hair and added a tuft modeled after the apostrophe hairstyle of Kabu from [[Wikipedia:Sally_the_Witch|Sally the Witch]]. The tuft on hair on the top of Conan's head comes from the character Shichimi in [[Wikipedia:Niji Iro Tōgarashi|Niji Iro Tōgarashi]]. Conan's clothes were modeled after [[Wikipedia:Shichi-Go-San|Shichi-Go-San (7-5-3) clothing]]. Young Gosho wore a bow tie and shorts in his Shichi-Go-San photographs. Gosho tries to restrict Conan's gadgets to what Conan can wear, but he has run out of ideas lately. The use of glasses as a disguise was modeled after [[Wikipedia:Superman|Superman]]'s Clark Kent. Conan's speech habits were meant to be slightly rough like Joe from [[Wikipedia:Ashita no Joe|Ashita no Joe]] and [[Wikipedia:Touch (manga)|Touch]].&lt;ref&gt;File 865 Shounen Sunday Special Booklet&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> == Different looks ==<br /> {|<br /> | style=&quot;vertical-align: top&quot; | [[File:Conan Before.jpg|thumb|left|x200px|Episode 2]]<br /> | style=&quot;vertical-align: top&quot; | [[File:Conan Middle.jpg|thumb|left|x200px|Episode 358]]<br /> | style=&quot;vertical-align: top&quot; | [[File:Conan After.jpg|thumb|left|x200px|Episode 763]]<br /> | style=&quot;vertical-align: top&quot; | [[File:Conan Alt.jpg|thumb|left|x200px|Episode 890]]<br /> | style=&quot;vertical-align: top&quot; | [[File:conan mk1412 ep11.png|thumb|x200px|Magic Kaito 1412 (episode 11).]]<br /> |}<br /> <br /> == Quotes ==<br /> <br /> === General ===<br /> {{col-begin}}<br /> {{col-2}}<br /> {{quote|{{nihongo|Conan Edogawa, a detective!|江戸川コナン, 探偵さ|Edogawa Konan, tantei sa!}}|One of Conan's catchphrases.}}<br /> {{quote|{{nihongo|There is always only one truth!|真実はいつもひとつ！|Shinjitsu wa itsumo hitotsu!}}|One of Conan's catchphrases.}}<br /> {{quote|{{nihongo|Only one truth is revealed, the appearance of a child, the brains of an adult, I am the great Detective Conan! |たった一つの真実見抜く、見た目は子供、頭脳は大人、その名は名探偵コナン!！|Tatta hitotsu no shinjitsu minuku, mitame wa kodomo, zunou wa otona, sono na wa Meitantei Konan!}}|One of Conan's catchphrases, which appears at the beginning of every episode.}}<br /> {{quote|{{nihongo|Even if I'm smaller my brain is still that of a great detective, There is always only one truth!|小さくなっても頭脳は同じ迷宮なしの名探偵 真実はいつもひとつ！|Chiisaku natte mo zunou wa onaji, Meikyuu nashi no meitantei, Shinjitsu wa itsumo hitotsu!}}|One of Conan's catchphrases, which appears during the intro of every movie.}}<br /> {{col-2}}<br /> {{quote|Only one truth prevails!|One of Conan's catchphrases, which appears at the end of every solved case in Case Closed.}}<br /> {{col-end}}<br /> {{quote|There's so such thing as a perfect person in this world}}<br /> {{quote|{{nihongo|When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.|あなたが不可能を除外するとき、どんなにありそうもないとしても、残っていることは真実でなければなりません|Anata ga fukanō o jogai suru toki, don'nani ari-sō mo nai to shite mo, nokotte iru koto wa shinjitsudenakereba narimasen}}|One of Conan's catchphrases.}}<br /> <br /> === Specific ===<br /> {{col-begin}}<br /> {{col-2}}<br /> {{quote|You can’t cure your own suffering by making others suffer.}}<br /> {{quote|If you believe in nothing and stand up for nothing, you’ll become and achieve nothing.}}<br /> {{quote|After all, I'm the guy who's been breaking [[Ran Mouri|her]] heart by making her wait an eternity... even though I'm always by her side.|Talking to Haibara about Ran}}<br /> {{quote|Don't run away, Haibara.

It seems there is Someone investigating about us, a Detective clever as a Fox.|Gin warning Vodka|[[Volume 38|File 383: &quot;The New Weapon!&quot;]]}}<br /> <br /> == Trivia ==<br /> * Conan's bad singing came to light as a joke after the anime began airing because Conan's voice actress [[Minami Takayama]] is a well-known singer. In [[Volume 15]] of the manga, Takayama herself is kidnapped and Conan, who sounds similar to her, tries to take her place at a concert. However, despite having similar voices, they sound completely different when it comes to singing.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 15|Volume 15, Files 144-146: &quot;Their Voices Are Alike!?&quot;]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * [[Image:EP622-623 Gallery 16.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan's cellphone wallpaper - Kogoro changed it when he was drunk]]He owns two cellphones, the one he uses as Conan and one that he uses as Shinichi. He is also shown using different kinds of cellphones throughout the series.<br /> * Conan often uses the expression &quot;Ah-le-le?&quot; when he is trying to point out a clue, something that is usually said by Japanese grade-schoolers. The expression was even [[The Sullied Masked Hero|said by Kogoro]] out of irritation at Conan (right before Conan tranquilized him). Conan's habit of acting juvenile to disguise his real abilities also [[Festival Dolls Dyed in the Setting Sun|draws the ire]] of the Detective Boys.<br /> * Conan/Shinichi and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] share the same blood type as mention in episode 189.<br /> * Conan/Shinchi's favorite drink is iced coffee as shown in Episode 814, Episode 919 etc. Shinichi's favorite drink is shown in [[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie]] when Daisuke say's that he isn't the only one who drinks iced coffee throughout the year. The lemon pie does not count as Shinichi's favorite during [[The Memories of First Love Case]] because the woman Asami Uchida, whose first love was Shinichi, told this to Ran and her specialty in the past was baking that same lemon pie that she finally perfected so Shinichi will tell her that the pie was delicious. Unless Gosho Aoyama said otherwise, the lemon pie may not be Shinichi's favorite and it was only brought up during that case alone.<br /> * Whenever dealing with a particularly difficult case, Shinichi/Conan juggles a soccer ball to think better. In scenes where he doesn't have one, he often holds his chin with his thumb and forefinger.<br /> * Conan/Shinichi doesn't know that ironically, due to all his secret keeping from Ran, he's potentially locked himself out of learning about Ran's own encounter(s) with the Black Organization, because she has no reason to tell 'Conan' about them. Shinichi/Conan has no idea that Ran has encountered Vermouth and saved Haibara from her, even 500+ chapters after it occurred. The fact that Haibara herself is invested in keeping Ran out of anything to do with the Black Organization only adds to this, as she deliberately lied to Conan/Shinichi about who saved her that night. Ran not knowing Conan's identity also prevents them from confiding in each other or pooling together information they might have in other areas, and thus can extend the time it takes for important realizations to come to light.<br /> *In File 1045, it is revealed that Conan and Yumi have each other's phone numbers.<br /> *In File 900, it is revealed that Conan and Miwako Sato have each other's phone numbers.<br /> * According to Gosho in Super Digest Book 90+ that from time to time, Conan wears a jumper with a &quot;K&quot; written on which stands for &quot;Karl Helmutt&quot;.<br /> *No matter where Conan goes, he can't go anywhere without stumbling upon a murder or some other crime. Lampshaded after a while by whichever of the police officers happens to be on duty in that area and some of the characters:<br /> :*Megure in particular begins to wonder if Kogoro is actually the Angel of Death, later on more accurately shifting his joking suspicions towards Conan himself as seen in Episode 549.<br /> :*during The Final Screening Murder Case (manga chapter 222/anime episode 138) where the Detective Boys are watching movies in a theater and Ai tells Conan he should relax and enjoy a &quot;child's vacation.&quot; When someone is killed at the back of the theater, Ai remarks, &quot;It seems you never have time for a vacation.&quot;<br /> :*In episode 141, Heiji says about Conan, &quot;Every time I see that guy a case occurs,&quot; ... about thirty seconds before a scream is heard and a body discovered.<br /> :*And during The Mystery in the Netcase (File 311-313/episodes 246-247) where the Detective Boys and Ran and Sonoko independently wind up at the same beach, Sonoko says of Conan, &quot;The reason we didn't bring him was because there are always cases when he's around!&quot;<br /> :**Later in the same episode, Haibara learns where Conan and the others are after they're late returning to their hotel (having discovered a murder while she was not present) by asking the hotel staff if there is a murder being investigated nearby.<br /> :*At the beginning of the first file of the paper airplane case, Conan notices how he seems to be running into cases all the time. This is the first time he's ever noticed, and this is over 600 chapters into the manga.<br /> :*Except that in the very first chapter of the whole manga, he tells Ran that murders &quot;happen all the time&quot;, which implies that encountering a lot of murders is normal to him. The rate of cases must have ramped up even further for him to notice that something is odd.<br /> *In episode 681, it's revealed Conan has Detective Chiba's phone number.<br /> <br /> == In other languages ==<br /> {{BeginTable CharLang}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Japan|Japanese|コナン Conan|江戸川 Edogawa}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Arab League|Arabic|كونان Konan|إيدوجاوا Edogawa}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Indonesia|Bahasa Indonesia|Conan|Edogawa}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Catalonia|Catalan|Conan|Edogawa}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=US|English|Conan|Edogawa}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Philippines|Filipino|Conan|Edogawa}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Finland|Finnish|Conan|Edogawa}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=France|French|Conan|Edogawa}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Galicia|Galician|Conan|Edogawa}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Germany|German|Conan|Edogawa}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Italy|Italian|Conan|Edogawa}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=South Korea|Korean|코난 Konan|(강)(in past pirate version)에도가와&lt;ref&gt;In the Korean version, Conan was never given a last name, possibly because his original last name, Edogawa, has 4 syllables, where all last names in Korean must be one syllable.&lt;/ref&gt;}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Malaysia|Malay (Bahasa Melayu / Bahasa Malaysia)|Conan|Edogawa}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Mongolia|Mongolian |Конан|Эдогава}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Russia|Russian |Конан|Эдогава}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=China|Simplified Chinese|柯南 Kēnán|江户川 Jiānghùchuān}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Spain|Spanish|Conan|Edogawa}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Spain|Spanish Latin America (until Ep123)|Conan|Blasi}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Thailand|Thai|โคนัน Khonạ-n|เอโดะงาวะ XE-do-ngā-wa}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Republic of China|Traditional Chinese|柯南 Kēnán|江戶川 Jiānghùchuān}}<br /> {{CharLangItem|flag=Vietnam|Vietnamese|Conan|Edogawa}}<br /> {{EndTable}}<br /> <br /> == Gallery ==<br /> &lt;gallery widths=200px perrow=5&gt;<br /> Image:Conan white bow tie.jpg|Conan wearing a white version of his bow tie.&lt;ref&gt;In episode 505-506, and 520&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> Image:vlcsnap-2013-09-21-15h36m56s117.png|&quot;There is only one truth!&quot; Conan's accusation pose seen in the opening of every movie.<br /> Image:vlcsnap-2013-11-02-21h07m32s178.png|Conan has a cameo in most of the [[Magic Kaito]] Specials and OVAs.<br /> Image:Conan Wearing His Hat.png|Conan wearing his hat.<br /> &lt;/gallery&gt;<br /> <br /> == See also ==<br /> * [[Characters]]<br /> * [[Shinichi Kudo]]<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> &lt;references/&gt;<br /> <br /> {{Characters}}<br /> {{Detective Boys}}<br /> {{DEFAULTSORT:Edogawa Conan}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Characters]]<br /> [[Category:Male characters]]<br /> [[Category:Detectives]]<br /> [[Category:High school detectives]]<br /> [[Category:High school students]]<br /> [[Category:Elementary school students]]<br /> [[Category:Detective Boys]]<br /> [[Category:Characters who know Ai Haibara's identity]]<br /> [[Category:Characters who know Subaru Okiya's identity]]<br /> [[Category:Crossover characters]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Conan Edogawa]]</div>

Eisuke lived with his mother, who worked as a housekeeper, unaware that his father was CIA-agent. His older sister Hidemi was in school abroad during that time, but came and visited during holidays, while his father lived and worked in Osaka and came by on New Year. Eisuke was very sick as a child and was very close with his sister, who always took him to the hospital. During those trip Hidemi told her brother that had a bloodtype that he could share with everyone (meaning he was born a type O). At some point during his childhood in Tokyo he became ill of leukemia and to treat him, Hidemi donated her own bone marrow to him. The operation was a success, but unknown to Eisuke his bloodtype changed from O to AB, because it was Hidemi's blood type and in such treatments the patient's bloodtype can change to the donor's bloodtype. After that his mother passed away due to illness, and Eisuke's father brought him to Osaka to live with him. There he was injured in an accident, and Hidemi was used as blood donor, which was possible, since the siblings now had same bloodtype. But after that surgery, Hidemi left and Eisuke lost contact with her. Soon after Eisuke's father left him in care with a friend to work undercover in the black organisation, but until his death he still had contact with his son and send him money.<br /> <br /> Eisuke Hondou first appeared soon after one of [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s confrontations with the [[Black Organization]], in which it was revealed that popular newscaster [[Hidemi Hondou|Rena Mizunashi]] was one of their members. He enlisted into Teitan High School and quickly made friends with [[Ran Mouri]] and [[Sonoko Suzuki]], who noticed the striking similarity to Mizunashi.<br /> <br /> Eisuke had been investigating Rena Mizunashi, noticing the resemblance she had with his sister and suspected that she was connected to Hidemi's disappearance. He learned that Kogoro Mouri was the last to meet her, before she took time off and concluded first he was hiding her somewhere. But as he made research on the detective, he discovered a big difference in his deduction skills before and after he become 'Sleeping Kogoro' and noticed that Conan was always by his side.<br /> <br /> Some time later, Eisuke visited [[Kogoro Mouri|Ran's father]] in his office, where he also ran into Conan. After expressing a vivid interest in Mouri's work, he was invited by Ran to come by anytime, much to the displeasure of Conan, who had become suspicious of Eisuke. This suspicion was confirmed by the fact that in subsequent cases Eisuke made several blunders which would 'incidentally' contribute to the solution of the relevant case.<br /> [[Image:Eisuke hondou eating with his father.jpg|thumb|200px|Eisuke eating okonomiyaki with his father when he was a kid.]]<br /> In time, Conan found out that Eisuke was indeed related to Rena Mizunashi. He had come to Tokyo looking for clues of his sister's whereabouts, sparked by him seeing her working as a newscaster by happenstance. He learned the truth from Conan, Hidemi and [[Shuichi Akai]] - that his sister, as well as [[Ethan Hondou|his late father]], were working for the CIA against the Black Organization. Following this revelation, he was offered a place in the Witness Protection Program, which he refused, though he decided to follow in his family's footsteps by joining the CIA one day. Alone with Conan, he also confessed that he had fallen in love with Ran and wished to take her with him to America. When Conan protested, Eisuke laughed out loud, stating that Conan's reaction was the final confirmation he had needed: that Conan was really [[Shinichi Kudo]], and that in fact he was responsible for the &quot;Sleeping Kogoro's success.&quot; With this revelation, he asked Conan/Shinichi to take good care of Ran in his stead, thus promising to keep his secret.<br /> <br /> == Personality ==<br /> Eisuke is a person with extremely bad luck. He's constantly bumping into or falling over something. However, his clumsiness belies a sharp intellect and keen talent for observation: With only few clues to work with, he was able to track down his vanished sister to the Haido Central Hospital, where the FBI was keeping her under guard, and even penetrate the facility to confront Rena Mizunashi - who really was his sister [[Hidemi Hondou|Hidemi]] - before he was discovered by Conan. He figured out that Shinichi and Conan were the same person before even meeting Conan and managed to force to the truth out of him later.<br /> <br /> As a person, Eisuke is usually quite jovial and friendly, though very emotional at times; in stressful situations he often lets his feelings get the better of him.<br /> <br /> ==Abilities==<br /> Eisuke has extremely bad luck and is very clumsy, but he has a sharp intellect and keen skills of observation, being able to search for his sister and tracking Rena Mizunashi. He also [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|discovered Conan's true identity]]. However, he failed to consider that Mizunashi could still be his sister despite having incompatible blood types, showing his lack of trivial knowledge when compared with, e.g., Conan.<br /> <br /> == Appellations ==<br /> &lt;tabs jsId=&quot;nicknames&quot;&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Friends &amp;amp; relatives&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Hidemi Hondou|Ei-chan &lt;br&gt; Eisuke|Mizunashi Rena (once) &lt;br&gt; Hidemi-nēsan &lt;br&gt; Sister (''Ane'') &lt;br&gt; Mizunashi-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Ethan Hondou|-|Father (''Chichi'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Mrs. Hondou|-|Mother (''Haha'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Conan Edogawa|Eisuke-niichan &lt;br&gt; Eisuke &lt;br&gt; Hondou Eisuke|Conan-kun &lt;br&gt; Kudo Shinichi}}<br /> {{appellations|Ran Mouri|Eisuke-kun|Ran-san &lt;br&gt; Mouri-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Kogoro Mouri|Clumsy brat (''bukiyō na gaki'')|Great Detective (''Meitantei'') &lt;br&gt; Mouri-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Sonoko Suzuki|Eisuke-kun &lt;br&gt; Clumsy boy (''Dojikko'')|Suzuki-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Nakamichi|Hondou}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Law enforcement&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Shuichi Akai|[[Ethan Hondou|NOC]]'s son (''NOC no musuko'') &lt;br&gt; Brother (''otōto''; talking to [[Hidemi Hondou|Hidemi]])}}<br /> {{appellations|Jodie Starling|Eisuke &lt;Br&gt; Eisuke-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Wataru Takagi|Hondou Eisuke-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Juzo Megure| Eisuke-kun}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Others&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Eisuke}}<br /> {{Appellations|Heiji Hattori|Hondou Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Ai Haibara|Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Shinichi Kudo|-|Shinichi-san &lt;br&gt; Kudo Shinichi}}<br /> <br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;/tabs&gt;<br /> <br /> == Plot overview ==<br /> === Secret Path to School (Manga: [[Volume 49#Missing Classmate Case|507]], Anime: [[Super Secret of the Road to School|427-428]]) ===<br /> Ran mentions they have a new transfer student in their school who looks like Rena Mizunashi, that student is Eisuke Hondou. With that description, Kogoro expects that Eisuke is a girl before actually meeting him. Conan, who has fallen asleep, doesn't hear about it.&lt;ref&gt;[[Super Secret of the Road to School|Episode 427-428: Super Secret of the Road to School]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === The Two Who Cannot Return (Manga: [[Volume 49#Locked Car Murder Case|508-510]], Anime: [[Two People Who Can't Return|429-430]]) ===<br /> Ran's new classmate, Eisuke Hondou, wants to meet Kogoro Mouri so he visits his office. He says he wants to meet Kogoro to borrow some of his luck, and considers Kogoro's way of solving cases while sleeping as when God comes to him. Eisuke accompanies Kogoro and they discover a body. He starts observing Kogoro and even questions why Conan is beside Kogoro while solving the case. Conan begins to suspect Eisuke, but drops it when he hits his head on the car's headliner.&lt;ref&gt;[[Two People Who Can't Return|Episode 429-430: Two People Who Can't Return]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Sealed Western Window (Manga: [[Volume 51#Sealed Window Case|530-532]], Anime: [[The Sealed Western-Style Window|446-447]]) ===<br /> Eisuke and Conan are beginning to grow suspicious of each other. It is shown that Eisuke may be easily scared in his reactions to the tales of the demon. He also makes some impressive deductions in relation to the murder case, but his solution is ultimately incorrect. Because Eisuke is watching him, Conan is forced to send Yamamura a text with the case solution pretending to be Kogoro.<br /> <br /> === Shadows of the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume 53#Giant Hammer Case|550]]-[[Volume 54#Mysterious Job Case|555]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|462-465]]) ===<br /> Conan grows more suspicious of Eisuke, suspecting that he is related to Rena Mizunashi as well as the Black Organization. Conan realizes that Eisuke repeatedly tries to bring up the subject of Rena Mizunashi by telling them hints about a recently missing TV personality, bringing them to the place where she got into a car accident and was taken into FBI custody, and other Mizunashi-related things. Conan also notices that she uses the same technique to detect lies (checking for elevated heart rate).&lt;ref&gt;[[The Shadow of the Black Organization|Episode 462-465: The Shadow of the Black Organization]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Nail and Snake (Manga: [[Volume 53#Giant Hammer Case|551]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|462-463]]) ===<br /> <br /> === The Mysterious Job (Manga: [[Volume 54#Mysterious Job Case|554-555]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|464-465]]) ===<br /> Eisuke reads a homepage about Rena Mizunashi and finds a post entry about Toji, who the homepage's administrator met, talking about seeing Rena having an accident with a motorbike. Eisuke found some entries about the administrator's strange job, which required taking trash from Toji's neighborhood and switch it with the trash from next time's collaboration, and decided to use it as a case request to Kogoro Mouri and have an excuse to visit Toji's house and meet him. When Conan (via Kogoro) sends Eisuke out of the house along with Ran and Toji, Eisuke gets the opportunity to question Toji. From that Eisuke realized that Rena must be hospitalized.<br /> <br /> === The Unsmashable Snowman (Manga: [[Volume 54|556-558]], Anime: [[The Unsmashable Snowman|466-467]]) ===<br /> Conan mentions Eisuke to Haibara. He thinks the reason that Eisuke led Conan, Ran, and Kogoro to the mysterious job case was to meet Touji, the witness of Kir's accident. The man who was hired for the job had posted on his blog about Touji and his story, so both Eisuke and Vermouth must have read it and sought out Touji to gain more details. Conan feels that he's not a bad person, but Haibara cautions Conan that he was just acting to let his guard down; however, Conan responds that he saw him crying. Conan thinks that he was unable to solve some problem or that there was something otherwise amiss, but lets it go for the time being.<br /> <br /> === Three Days with Heiji Hattori (Manga: [[Volume 54|559]]-[[Volume 55|566]], Anime: [[Three Days with Heiji Hattori|479]]) ===<br /> Conan mentioned Eisuke to Heiji and asked Heiji to Check on something. Heiji asked why he had to do it and if Eisuke had something do with Osaka. Conan responded that he wanted him to check on the person who had the same eyes as Eisuke, Rena Mizunashi, and told Heiji that she was a Black Organization member. Heiji was shocked then Conan told him about the her accident and Conan told him to look up on Eisuke background while looking over on her background.<br /> <br /> === Whereabouts of the Dark Photograph (Manga: [[Volume 56|582-584]], Anime: [[Whereabouts of the Dark Photograph|484-485]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Billing Fraud Case (Manga: [[Volume 56|585-586]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|491]]) ===<br /> When Ran, Sonoko, and Conan visit a friend from Middle School in a hospital, they coincidentally meet Eisuke who is looking for his sister, who left 10 years ago. His sister looks exactly like Rena Mizunashi but Eisuke insists that they are different people. To determine whether they are the same or not, they decide to visit a big fan of hers to confirm it. Koushi Anno, a big fan of Rena, tells them that he thinks they're the same person and show them a video wherein Rena has the same hairstyle as in the picture. But Eisuke insists that they are different since the video proves that Rena's blood type is AB, which can't be possible because when he was a kid, he remembered receiving a blood transfusion from her sister and his blood type had been O. <br /> <br /> === Deceased Mother's Memento (Manga: [[Volume 57|587-590]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|492-494]]) ===<br /> [[File:EP494-2.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan imagines Eisuke and Ran bathing together.]]<br /> Ran tells Sonoko that she knew where Rena Mizunashi was addressed. Sonoko asks why she did not tell Eisuke. Ran replies saying that she thought that Eisuke would be disappointed that Rena was not his sister. Conan assured that the Black Organization would take an interest in Eisuke because he shared resemblances to Rena. When Sonoko asked about his blood type, Eisuke fell down and said his blood type is O. Then he accompanied Kogoro to a client who was close to his mother who work as a housekeeper. There, Eisuke found his birth certificate showing that his blood type is O, leaving his sister's blood type unsolved. When Eiko Okudaira assumes that Ran was Eisuke's girlfriend, Ran says to her that it's nothing like that, while Eisuke says that she was not his girlfriend. Conan explains that they were here to find out what Eisuke's blood type was, and asked if he was right while looking at Eisuke with a jealous face. While solving a case, the butler tells Conan that Ran and Eisuke were in the bathroom. Conan thought that they were bathing but discovers that Ran was helping him change his clothes. Ran told Conan that she was a bit surprised when he took off his shirt in front of her so suddenly. Conan notices a scar on Eisuke's chest and wonders about what it could be.<br /> <br /> === Clash of Red and Black (Manga: [[Volume 57#Fake Patient Case|595]]-[[Volume 59#Foreign Suspect Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]]) ===<br /> After winter break, Conan learns that Ran has lost contact with Eisuke. The last time that Eisuke talked to her was when he told her that he found a clue on his father's company in Haido Central Hospital, the same hospital wherein Rena was secretly confined. Conan decide to inform Jodie about his suspicions on Eisuke. Jodie tells him that Eisuke's father was CIA spy and was killed by Rena four years ago. He later realizes that Eisuke found a Black Organization member and is currently in the hospital. The FBI decide to search for the undercover Black Organization member. While searching in the hospital for clue on Eisuke and the Black Organization, a nurse informs Conan that she remembers that Eisuke had a surgery in Tokyo due to his leukemia. <br /> <br /> The night before they decide to move Rena, Eisuke visits Rena's room and attempts to force her to wake up. When he tries to stab her with scissors, Rena stops him and calls him Ei-chan. She tells Eisuke that it is reason enough to get out of this without asking her anything else, but Eisuke refuses to believe it, saying that her blood type is AB while his is O. Conan appears and says that his blood type is now AB and that Rena, who is actually his sister, is member of a certain organization. Hidemi and Eisuke now have the same blood type, AB, after he received a bone marrow transplant from her when he had leukemia. Eisuke is shocked at this revelation. Conan explains that he heard his from a nurse who also explained that the scar in the middle of his chest was due to multiple insertion of a needle to test a tumor that was circulating in the marrow. Eisuke asks why did she not tell him about it and why she changed her name and became an announcer. Conan says that she is a CIA agent, as well as his father, Ethan Hondou. Rena becoming an announcer was part of the plan, and she was going to pretend to be a different person if he came after her. Conan respond to Hidemi that the plan backfired since Eisuke come see her in this condition. Eisuke becomes confused and asks about the organization. Akai then appears and says that this is all the information he is permitted to know. Camel forces Eisuke to leave.&lt;ref&gt;[[Clash of Red and Black|Episode 491-504: Clash of Red and Black]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Karaoke Box Case (Manga: [[Volume 59|619]]-[[Volume 60|621]], Anime: [[The Blind Spot in the Karaoke Box|507-508]]) ===<br /> Conan and Haibara meet Ran, Sonoko and Eisuke in a book store. Conan ask Eisuke that he heard that he was not in school for awhile, Ran respond that Eisuke reinstated today and Ran mention that she heard that Eisuke was absent due to a illness and was recuperated from illness while Sonoko tease him that it was Love Sickness and Eisuke respond it just only a regular illness. Eisuke remarks that &quot;he probably won't need&quot; a study book the girls are buying, and that he &quot;hates to be restricted by anything; even time.&quot; Eisuke visits a karaoke box along with Ran, Sonoko, and Conan. Conan and Haibara notice that a man is trailing the group, and Conan suggests that the man is likely an FBI agent keeping tabs on Eisuke, since he refused access to the Witness Protection Program.<br /> <br /> In the karaoke box, Eisuke leaves to visit the bathroom. He takes a very long time to return, and does so with a terrified expression. The body of the man trailing the group is discovered in another room. Conan suspects Eisuke, since he is under the impression that the deceased was tracking him. However, it is soon revealed that the man was in fact a stalker with a fixation on Sonoko. (What had frightened Eisuke was when he mistakenly opened another customer's room, he saw what he mistook as two men kissing.) Ran is very glad that Eisuke is innocent, to the point where her eyes become tearful.<br /> <br /> At the ending of the case, Eisuke walks home alone with Conan. He asks Conan to speak with Shinichi about his intentions to marry Ran and live with her in America. Conan angrily tells him that he can't, and reveals his identity as Shinichi Kudo to Eisuke. Eisuke laughs, and informs Conan that he had guessed it all along- showing all his deductions to Conan. He then tells Conan that he will move to America and join the CIA, following in his father and sister's footsteps. He admits that he was looking into Kogoro, because he had heard he was the last person to see Rena Mizunashi before she disappeared. He had concluded that Kogoro was sheltering her some way, but after checking him out, Eisuke realized that there was a big difference in his skill before and after he becomes the sleeping Kogoro. He connected Kogoro's rise as detective with Shinichi's absent from school and with Conan's present. But he did fell in love with Ran, so he asks Shinichi to make her happy.<br /> <br /> == Relationships analysis ==<br /> === Hidemi Hondou ===<br /> [[File:Hidemi and Eisuke.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Hidemi carrying Eisuke when he was a child.]]<br /> His sister had always taken care of him. Eisuke mentioned that when he was a child, he got injured after getting hit by a car, and she saved his life by donating her blood to him. Eisuke said that she was the reason why he's alive today and try to find her. While infiltrating the Black Organization, Hidemi had to cut off all contact with her family including Eisuke. Eisuke never gave up on finding his older sister even though she left when Eisuke was only about seven. Hidemi seemed to care a lot about Eisuke despite being separated; she burst into tears after meeting a young child who had been stalking her because she looked like his dead mother. When she discovered Eisuke was getting close to her trying to uncover her identity, she risked a meeting with Kogoro Mouri, hoping to convince him to take Eisuke away from her to keep him safe, and promised to tell information to the FBI if they put Eisuke in the witness protection program.<br /> <br /> === Ran Mouri ===<br /> [[File:EP430 6.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran and Eisuke during a case.]]<br /> In [[The Blind Spot in the Karaoke Box]], Eisuke has some interest in [[Ran Mouri|Ran]]. He admits to Conan that he loves Ran and claims that he would take Ran to America and live happily ever after there, and wonders if he should ask for Shinichi's permission. Conan, without hesitating, refuses, revealing his identity.<br /> <br /> === Conan Edogawa ===<br /> Eisuke shows interest in Conan. Eisuke often asks why Conan was around when Kogoro solved cases. Later, Conan reveals himself as Shinichi to Eisuke, and Eisuke reveals that he had suspected Conan's identity for a while. They share a neutral farewell when he goes to America to to join the CIA in his father and sister's footsteps.<br /> <br /> === Ethan Hondou ===<br /> Ethan Hondou was Eisuke's father. They used to eat okonomiyaki together at a restaurant when Eisuke was a child. Ethan later committed suicide in order to cover Hidemi's identity as a CIA operative.<br /> <br /> === Mrs. Hondou ===<br /> Eisuke lived with his mother during his childhood until she passed away.

Eisuke lived with his mother, who worked as a housekeeper, unaware that his father was CIA-agent. His older sister Hidemi was in school abroad during that time, but came and visited during holidays, while his father lived and worked in Osaka and came by on New Year. Eisuke was very sick as a child and was very close with his sister, who always took him to the hospital. During those trip Hidemi told her brother that had a bloodtype that he could share with everyone (meaning he was born a type O). At some point during his childhood in Tokyo he became ill of leukemia and to treat him, Hidemi donated her own bone marrow to him. The operation was a success, but unknown to Eisuke his bloodtype changed from O to AB, because it was Hidemi's blood type and in such treatments the patient's bloodtype can change to the donor's bloodtype. After that his mother passed away due to illness, and Eisuke's father brought him to Osaka to live with him. There he was injured in an accident, and Hidemi was used as blood donor, which was possible, since the siblings now had same bloodtype. But after that surgery, Hidemi left and Eisuke lost contact with her. Soon after Eisuke's father left him in care with a friend to work undercover in the black organisation, but until his death he still had contact with his son and send him money.<br /> <br /> Eisuke Hondou first appeared soon after one of [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s confrontations with the [[Black Organization]], in which it was revealed that popular newscaster [[Hidemi Hondou|Rena Mizunashi]] was one of their members. He enlisted into Teitan High School and quickly made friends with [[Ran Mouri]] and [[Sonoko Suzuki]], who noticed the striking similarity to Mizunashi.<br /> <br /> Eisuke had been investigating Rena Mizunashi, noticing the resemblance she had with his sister and suspected that she was connected to Hidemi's disappearance. He learned that Kogoro Mouri was the last to meet her, before she took time off and concluded first he was hiding her somewhere. But as he made research on the detective, he discovered a big difference in his deduction skills before and after he become 'Sleeping Kogoro' and noticed that Conan was always by his side.<br /> <br /> Some time later, Eisuke visited [[Kogoro Mouri|Ran's father]] in his office, where he also ran into Conan. After expressing a vivid interest in Mouri's work, he was invited by Ran to come by anytime, much to the displeasure of Conan, who had become suspicious of Eisuke. This suspicion was confirmed by the fact that in subsequent cases Eisuke made several blunders which would 'incidentally' contribute to the solution of the relevant case.<br /> [[Image:Eisuke hondou eating with his father.jpg|thumb|200px|Eisuke eating okonomiyaki with his father when he was a kid.]]<br /> In time, Conan found out that Eisuke was indeed related to Rena Mizunashi. He had come to Tokyo looking for clues of his sister's whereabouts, sparked by him seeing her working as a newscaster by happenstance. He learned the truth from Conan, Hidemi and [[Shuichi Akai]] - that his sister, as well as [[Ethan Hondou|his late father]], were working for the CIA against the Black Organization. Following this revelation, he was offered a place in the Witness Protection Program, which he refused, though he decided to follow in his family's footsteps by joining the CIA one day. Alone with Conan, he also confessed that he had fallen in love with Ran and wished to take her with him to America. When Conan protested, Eisuke laughed out loud, stating that Conan's reaction was the final confirmation he had needed: that Conan was really [[Shinichi Kudo]], and that in fact he was responsible for the &quot;Sleeping Kogoro's success.&quot; With this revelation, he asked Conan/Shinichi to take good care of Ran in his stead, thus promising to keep his secret.<br /> <br /> == Personality ==<br /> Eisuke is a person with extremely bad luck. He's constantly bumping into or falling over something. However, his clumsiness belies a sharp intellect and keen talent for observation: With only few clues to work with, he was able to track down his vanished sister to the Haido Central Hospital, where the FBI was keeping her under guard, and even penetrate the facility to confront Rena Mizunashi - who really was his sister [[Hidemi Hondou|Hidemi]] - before he was discovered by Conan. He figured out that Shinichi and Conan were the same person before even meeting Conan and managed to force to the truth out of him later.<br /> <br /> As a person, Eisuke is usually quite jovial and friendly, though very emotional at times; in stressful situations he often lets his feelings get the better of him.<br /> <br /> ==Abilities==<br /> Eisuke has extremely bad luck and is very clumsy, but he has a sharp intellect and keen skills of observation, being able to search for his sister and tracking Rena Mizunashi. He also [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|discovered Conan's true identity]]. However, he failed to consider that Mizunashi could still be his sister despite having incompatible blood types, showing his lack of trivial knowledge when compared with, e.g., Conan.<br /> <br /> == Appellations ==<br /> &lt;tabs jsId=&quot;nicknames&quot;&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Friends &amp;amp; relatives&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Hidemi Hondou|Ei-chan &lt;br&gt; Eisuke|Mizunashi Rena (once) &lt;br&gt; Hidemi-nēsan &lt;br&gt; Sister (''Ane'') &lt;br&gt; Mizunashi-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Ethan Hondou|-|Father (''Chichi'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Mrs. Hondou|-|Mother (''Haha'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Conan Edogawa|Eisuke-niichan &lt;br&gt; Eisuke &lt;br&gt; Hondou Eisuke|Conan-kun &lt;br&gt; Kudo Shinichi}}<br /> {{appellations|Ran Mouri|Eisuke-kun|Ran-san &lt;br&gt; Mouri-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Kogoro Mouri|Clumsy brat (''bukiyō na gaki'')|Great Detective (''Meitantei'') &lt;br&gt; Mouri-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Sonoko Suzuki|Eisuke-kun &lt;br&gt; Clumsy boy (''Dojikko'')|Suzuki-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Nakamichi|Hondou}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Law enforcement&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Shuichi Akai|[[Ethan Hondou|NOC]]'s son (''NOC no musuko'') &lt;br&gt; Brother (''otōto''; talking to [[Hidemi Hondou|Hidemi]])}}<br /> {{appellations|Jodie Starling|Eisuke &lt;Br&gt; Eisuke-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Wataru Takagi|Hondou Eisuke-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Juzo Megure| Eisuke-kun}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Others&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Eisuke}}<br /> {{Appellations|Heiji Hattori|Hondou Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Ai Haibara|Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Shinichi Kudo|-|Shinichi-san &lt;br&gt; Kudo Shinichi}}<br /> <br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;/tabs&gt;<br /> <br /> == Plot overview ==<br /> === Secret Path to School (Manga: [[Volume 49#Missing Classmate Case|507]], Anime: [[Super Secret of the Road to School|427-428]]) ===<br /> Ran mentions they have a new transfer student in their school who looks like Rena Mizunashi, that student is Eisuke Hondou. With that description, Kogoro expects that Eisuke is a girl before actually meeting him. Conan, who has fallen asleep, doesn't hear about it.&lt;ref&gt;[[Super Secret of the Road to School|Episode 427-428: Super Secret of the Road to School]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === The Two Who Cannot Return (Manga: [[Volume 49#Locked Car Murder Case|508-510]], Anime: [[Two People Who Can't Return|429-430]]) ===<br /> Ran's new classmate, Eisuke Hondou, wants to meet Kogoro Mouri so he visits his office. He says he wants to meet Kogoro to borrow some of his luck, and considers Kogoro's way of solving cases while sleeping as when God comes to him. Eisuke accompanies Kogoro and they discover a body. He starts observing Kogoro and even questions why Conan is beside Kogoro while solving the case. Conan begins to suspect Eisuke, but drops it when he hits his head on the car's headliner.&lt;ref&gt;[[Two People Who Can't Return|Episode 429-430: Two People Who Can't Return]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Sealed Western Window (Manga: [[Volume 51#Sealed Window Case|530-532]], Anime: [[The Sealed Western-Style Window|446-447]]) ===<br /> Eisuke and Conan are beginning to grow suspicious of each other. It is shown that Eisuke may be easily scared in his reactions to the tales of the demon. He also makes some impressive deductions in relation to the murder case, but his solution is ultimately incorrect. Because Eisuke is watching him, Conan is forced to send Yamamura a text with the case solution pretending to be Kogoro.<br /> <br /> === Shadows of the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume 53#Giant Hammer Case|550]]-[[Volume 54#Mysterious Job Case|555]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|462-465]]) ===<br /> Conan grows more suspicious of Eisuke, suspecting that he is related to Rena Mizunashi as well as the Black Organization. Conan realizes that Eisuke repeatedly tries to bring up the subject of Rena Mizunashi by telling them hints about a recently missing TV personality, bringing them to the place where she got into a car accident and was taken into FBI custody, and other Mizunashi-related things. Conan also notices that she uses the same technique to detect lies (checking for elevated heart rate).&lt;ref&gt;[[The Shadow of the Black Organization|Episode 462-465: The Shadow of the Black Organization]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Nail and Snake (Manga: [[Volume 53#Giant Hammer Case|551]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|462-463]]) ===<br /> <br /> === The Mysterious Job (Manga: [[Volume 54#Mysterious Job Case|554-555]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|464-465]]) ===<br /> Eisuke reads a homepage about Rena Mizunashi and finds a post entry about Toji, who the homepage's administrator met, talking about seeing Rena having an accident with a motorbike. Eisuke found some entries about the administrator's strange job, which required taking trash from Toji's neighborhood and switch it with the trash from next time's collaboration, and decided to use it as a case request to Kogoro Mouri and have an excuse to visit Toji's house and meet him. When Conan (via Kogoro) sends Eisuke out of the house along with Ran and Toji, Eisuke gets the opportunity to question Toji. From that Eisuke realized that Rena must be hospitalized.<br /> <br /> === The Unsmashable Snowman (Manga: [[Volume 54|556-558]], Anime: [[The Unsmashable Snowman|466-467]]) ===<br /> Conan mentioned Eisuke to Ai. He thinks that the reason that he led Conan, Ran and Kogoro to the mysterious job case, was in order to meet Touji, the witness of Kir's accident. The man who was hired for the job had posted on his blog about Touji and his story, so both Eisuke and Vermouth must have read it and sought out Touji to gain more details. Conan felt that he's not a bad person but Ai cautioned Conan that he was just acting to let his guard down but Conan responded that he saw him crying and thought that he was unable to solve some problem or there was something else but Conan decided to let it go for now.<br /> <br /> === Three Days with Heiji Hattori (Manga: [[Volume 54|559]]-[[Volume 55|566]], Anime: [[Three Days with Heiji Hattori|479]]) ===<br /> Conan mentioned Eisuke to Heiji and asked Heiji to Check on something. Heiji asked why he had to do it and if Eisuke had something do with Osaka. Conan responded that he wanted him to check on the person who had the same eyes as Eisuke, Rena Mizunashi, and told Heiji that she was a Black Organization member. Heiji was shocked then Conan told him about the her accident and Conan told him to look up on Eisuke background while looking over on her background.<br /> <br /> === Whereabouts of the Dark Photograph (Manga: [[Volume 56|582-584]], Anime: [[Whereabouts of the Dark Photograph|484-485]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Billing Fraud Case (Manga: [[Volume 56|585-586]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|491]]) ===<br /> When Ran, Sonoko, and Conan visit a friend from Middle School in a hospital, they coincidentally meet Eisuke who is looking for his sister, who left 10 years ago. His sister looks exactly like Rena Mizunashi but Eisuke insists that they are different people. To determine whether they are the same or not, they decide to visit a big fan of hers to confirm it. Koushi Anno, a big fan of Rena, tells them that he thinks they're the same person and show them a video wherein Rena has the same hairstyle as in the picture. But Eisuke insists that they are different since the video proves that Rena's blood type is AB, which can't be possible because when he was a kid, he remembered receiving a blood transfusion from her sister and his blood type had been O. <br /> <br /> === Deceased Mother's Memento (Manga: [[Volume 57|587-590]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|492-494]]) ===<br /> [[File:EP494-2.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan imagines Eisuke and Ran bathing together.]]<br /> Ran tells Sonoko that she knew where Rena Mizunashi was addressed. Sonoko asks why she did not tell Eisuke. Ran replies saying that she thought that Eisuke would be disappointed that Rena was not his sister. Conan assured that the Black Organization would take an interest in Eisuke because he shared resemblances to Rena. When Sonoko asked about his blood type, Eisuke fell down and said his blood type is O. Then he accompanied Kogoro to a client who was close to his mother who work as a housekeeper. There, Eisuke found his birth certificate showing that his blood type is O, leaving his sister's blood type unsolved. When Eiko Okudaira assumes that Ran was Eisuke's girlfriend, Ran says to her that it's nothing like that, while Eisuke says that she was not his girlfriend. Conan explains that they were here to find out what Eisuke's blood type was, and asked if he was right while looking at Eisuke with a jealous face. While solving a case, the butler tells Conan that Ran and Eisuke were in the bathroom. Conan thought that they were bathing but discovers that Ran was helping him change his clothes. Ran told Conan that she was a bit surprised when he took off his shirt in front of her so suddenly. Conan notices a scar on Eisuke's chest and wonders about what it could be.<br /> <br /> === Clash of Red and Black (Manga: [[Volume 57#Fake Patient Case|595]]-[[Volume 59#Foreign Suspect Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]]) ===<br /> After winter break, Conan learns that Ran has lost contact with Eisuke. The last time that Eisuke talked to her was when he told her that he found a clue on his father's company in Haido Central Hospital, the same hospital wherein Rena was secretly confined. Conan decide to inform Jodie about his suspicions on Eisuke. Jodie tells him that Eisuke's father was CIA spy and was killed by Rena four years ago. He later realizes that Eisuke found a Black Organization member and is currently in the hospital. The FBI decide to search for the undercover Black Organization member. While searching in the hospital for clue on Eisuke and the Black Organization, a nurse informs Conan that she remembers that Eisuke had a surgery in Tokyo due to his leukemia. <br /> <br /> The night before they decide to move Rena, Eisuke visits Rena's room and attempts to force her to wake up. When he tries to stab her with scissors, Rena stops him and calls him Ei-chan. She tells Eisuke that it is reason enough to get out of this without asking her anything else, but Eisuke refuses to believe it, saying that her blood type is AB while his is O. Conan appears and says that his blood type is now AB and that Rena, who is actually his sister, is member of a certain organization. Hidemi and Eisuke now have the same blood type, AB, after he received a bone marrow transplant from her when he had leukemia. Eisuke is shocked at this revelation. Conan explains that he heard his from a nurse who also explained that the scar in the middle of his chest was due to multiple insertion of a needle to test a tumor that was circulating in the marrow. Eisuke asks why did she not tell him about it and why she changed her name and became an announcer. Conan says that she is a CIA agent, as well as his father, Ethan Hondou. Rena becoming an announcer was part of the plan, and she was going to pretend to be a different person if he came after her. Conan respond to Hidemi that the plan backfired since Eisuke come see her in this condition. Eisuke becomes confused and asks about the organization. Akai then appears and says that this is all the information he is permitted to know. Camel forces Eisuke to leave.&lt;ref&gt;[[Clash of Red and Black|Episode 491-504: Clash of Red and Black]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Karaoke Box Case (Manga: [[Volume 59|619]]-[[Volume 60|621]], Anime: [[The Blind Spot in the Karaoke Box|507-508]]) ===<br /> Conan and Haibara meet Ran, Sonoko and Eisuke in a book store. Conan ask Eisuke that he heard that he was not in school for awhile, Ran respond that Eisuke reinstated today and Ran mention that she heard that Eisuke was absent due to a illness and was recuperated from illness while Sonoko tease him that it was Love Sickness and Eisuke respond it just only a regular illness. Eisuke remarks that &quot;he probably won't need&quot; a study book the girls are buying, and that he &quot;hates to be restricted by anything; even time.&quot; Eisuke visits a karaoke box along with Ran, Sonoko, and Conan. Conan and Haibara notice that a man is trailing the group, and Conan suggests that the man is likely an FBI agent keeping tabs on Eisuke, since he refused access to the Witness Protection Program.<br /> <br /> In the karaoke box, Eisuke leaves to visit the bathroom. He takes a very long time to return, and does so with a terrified expression. The body of the man trailing the group is discovered in another room. Conan suspects Eisuke, since he is under the impression that the deceased was tracking him. However, it is soon revealed that the man was in fact a stalker with a fixation on Sonoko. (What had frightened Eisuke was when he mistakenly opened another customer's room, he saw what he mistook as two men kissing.) Ran is very glad that Eisuke is innocent, to the point where her eyes become tearful.<br /> <br /> At the ending of the case, Eisuke walks home alone with Conan. He asks Conan to speak with Shinichi about his intentions to marry Ran and live with her in America. Conan angrily tells him that he can't, and reveals his identity as Shinichi Kudo to Eisuke. Eisuke laughs, and informs Conan that he had guessed it all along- showing all his deductions to Conan. He then tells Conan that he will move to America and join the CIA, following in his father and sister's footsteps. He admits that he was looking into Kogoro, because he had heard he was the last person to see Rena Mizunashi before she disappeared. He had concluded that Kogoro was sheltering her some way, but after checking him out, Eisuke realized that there was a big difference in his skill before and after he becomes the sleeping Kogoro. He connected Kogoro's rise as detective with Shinichi's absent from school and with Conan's present. But he did fell in love with Ran, so he asks Shinichi to make her happy.<br /> <br /> == Relationships analysis ==<br /> === Hidemi Hondou ===<br /> [[File:Hidemi and Eisuke.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Hidemi carrying Eisuke when he was a child.]]<br /> His sister had always taken care of him. Eisuke mentioned that when he was a child, he got injured after getting hit by a car, and she saved his life by donating her blood to him. Eisuke said that she was the reason why he's alive today and try to find her. While infiltrating the Black Organization, Hidemi had to cut off all contact with her family including Eisuke. Eisuke never gave up on finding his older sister even though she left when Eisuke was only about seven. Hidemi seemed to care a lot about Eisuke despite being separated; she burst into tears after meeting a young child who had been stalking her because she looked like his dead mother. When she discovered Eisuke was getting close to her trying to uncover her identity, she risked a meeting with Kogoro Mouri, hoping to convince him to take Eisuke away from her to keep him safe, and promised to tell information to the FBI if they put Eisuke in the witness protection program.<br /> <br /> === Ran Mouri ===<br /> [[File:EP430 6.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran and Eisuke during a case.]]<br /> In [[The Blind Spot in the Karaoke Box]], Eisuke has some interest in [[Ran Mouri|Ran]]. He admits to Conan that he loves Ran and claims that he would take Ran to America and live happily ever after there, and wonders if he should ask for Shinichi's permission. Conan, without hesitating, refuses, revealing his identity.<br /> <br /> === Conan Edogawa ===<br /> Eisuke shows interest in Conan. Eisuke often asks why Conan was around when Kogoro solved cases. Later, Conan reveals himself as Shinichi to Eisuke, and Eisuke reveals that he had suspected Conan's identity for a while. They share a neutral farewell when he goes to America to to join the CIA in his father and sister's footsteps.<br /> <br /> === Ethan Hondou ===<br /> Ethan Hondou was Eisuke's father. They used to eat okonomiyaki together at a restaurant when Eisuke was a child. Ethan later committed suicide in order to cover Hidemi's identity as a CIA operative.<br /> <br /> === Mrs. Hondou ===<br /> Eisuke lived with his mother during his childhood until she passed away. He shares a great resemblance with her.<br /> <br /> === Kogoro Mouri ===<br /> Eisuke had originally suspected that Kogoro had hide Rena Mizunashi away and did research on him. However he noticed a big difference between his detective skills and the skills of Sleeping Kogoro, which turned his attention to Conan.<br /> <br /> == Name origin ==<br /> Eisuke's name comes from &quot;Bondo&quot; (ボンド), the Japanese pronunciation of (James) &quot;Bond&quot;, and mystery writer {{nihongo|[[wikipedia:ja:海渡英祐|Eisuke Kaito]]|海渡 英祐|Kaito Eisuke}}.

Eisuke lived with his mother, who worked as a housekeeper, unaware that his father was CIA-agent. His older sister Hidemi was in school abroad during that time, but came and visited during holidays, while his father lived and worked in Osaka and came by on New Year. Eisuke was very sick as a child and was very close with his sister, who always took him to the hospital. During those trip Hidemi told her brother that had a bloodtype that he could share with everyone (meaning he was born a type O). At some point during his childhood in Tokyo he became ill of leukemia and to treat him, Hidemi donated her own bone marrow to him. The operation was a success, but unknown to Eisuke his bloodtype changed from O to AB, because it was Hidemi's blood type and in such treatments the patient's bloodtype can change to the donor's bloodtype. After that his mother passed away due to illness, and Eisuke's father brought him to Osaka to live with him. There he was injured in an accident, and Hidemi was used as blood donor, which was possible, since the siblings now had same bloodtype. But after that surgery, Hidemi left and Eisuke lost contact with her. Soon after Eisuke's father left him in care with a friend to work undercover in the black organisation, but until his death he still had contact with his son and send him money.<br /> <br /> Eisuke Hondou first appeared soon after one of [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s confrontations with the [[Black Organization]], in which it was revealed that popular newscaster [[Hidemi Hondou|Rena Mizunashi]] was one of their members. He enlisted into Teitan High School and quickly made friends with [[Ran Mouri]] and [[Sonoko Suzuki]], who noticed the striking similarity to Mizunashi.<br /> <br /> Eisuke had been investigating Rena Mizunashi, noticing the resemblance she had with his sister and suspected that she was connected to Hidemi's disappearance. He learned that Kogoro Mouri was the last to meet her, before she took time off and concluded first he was hiding her somewhere. But as he made research on the detective, he discovered a big difference in his deduction skills before and after he become 'Sleeping Kogoro' and noticed that Conan was always by his side.<br /> <br /> Some time later, Eisuke visited [[Kogoro Mouri|Ran's father]] in his office, where he also ran into Conan. After expressing a vivid interest in Mouri's work, he was invited by Ran to come by anytime, much to the displeasure of Conan, who had become suspicious of Eisuke. This suspicion was confirmed by the fact that in subsequent cases Eisuke made several blunders which would 'incidentally' contribute to the solution of the relevant case.<br /> [[Image:Eisuke hondou eating with his father.jpg|thumb|200px|Eisuke eating okonomiyaki with his father when he was a kid.]]<br /> In time, Conan found out that Eisuke was indeed related to Rena Mizunashi. He had come to Tokyo looking for clues of his sister's whereabouts, sparked by him seeing her working as a newscaster by happenstance. He learned the truth from Conan, Hidemi and [[Shuichi Akai]] - that his sister, as well as [[Ethan Hondou|his late father]], were working for the CIA against the Black Organization. Following this revelation, he was offered a place in the Witness Protection Program, which he refused, though he decided to follow in his family's footsteps by joining the CIA one day. Alone with Conan, he also confessed that he had fallen in love with Ran and wished to take her with him to America. When Conan protested, Eisuke laughed out loud, stating that Conan's reaction was the final confirmation he had needed: that Conan was really [[Shinichi Kudo]], and that in fact he was responsible for the &quot;Sleeping Kogoro's success.&quot; With this revelation, he asked Conan/Shinichi to take good care of Ran in his stead, thus promising to keep his secret.<br /> <br /> == Personality ==<br /> Eisuke is a person with extremely bad luck. He's constantly bumping into or falling over something. However, his clumsiness belies a sharp intellect and keen talent for observation: With only few clues to work with, he was able to track down his vanished sister to the Haido Central Hospital, where the FBI was keeping her under guard, and even penetrate the facility to confront Rena Mizunashi - who really was his sister [[Hidemi Hondou|Hidemi]] - before he was discovered by Conan. He figured out that Shinichi and Conan were the same person before even meeting Conan and managed to force to the truth out of him later.<br /> <br /> As a person, Eisuke is usually quite jovial and friendly, though very emotional at times; in stressful situations he often lets his feelings get the better of him.<br /> <br /> ==Abilities==<br /> Eisuke has extremely bad luck and is very clumsy, but he has a sharp intellect and keen skills of observation, being able to search for his sister and tracking Rena Mizunashi. He also [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|discovered Conan's true identity]]. However, he failed to consider that Mizunashi could still be his sister despite having incompatible blood types, showing his lack of trivial knowledge when compared with, e.g., Conan.<br /> <br /> == Appellations ==<br /> &lt;tabs jsId=&quot;nicknames&quot;&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Friends &amp;amp; relatives&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Hidemi Hondou|Ei-chan &lt;br&gt; Eisuke|Mizunashi Rena (once) &lt;br&gt; Hidemi-nēsan &lt;br&gt; Sister (''Ane'') &lt;br&gt; Mizunashi-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Ethan Hondou|-|Father (''Chichi'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Mrs. Hondou|-|Mother (''Haha'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Conan Edogawa|Eisuke-niichan &lt;br&gt; Eisuke &lt;br&gt; Hondou Eisuke|Conan-kun &lt;br&gt; Kudo Shinichi}}<br /> {{appellations|Ran Mouri|Eisuke-kun|Ran-san &lt;br&gt; Mouri-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Kogoro Mouri|Clumsy brat (''bukiyō na gaki'')|Great Detective (''Meitantei'') &lt;br&gt; Mouri-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Sonoko Suzuki|Eisuke-kun &lt;br&gt; Clumsy boy (''Dojikko'')|Suzuki-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Nakamichi|Hondou}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Law enforcement&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Shuichi Akai|[[Ethan Hondou|NOC]]'s son (''NOC no musuko'') &lt;br&gt; Brother (''otōto''; talking to [[Hidemi Hondou|Hidemi]])}}<br /> {{appellations|Jodie Starling|Eisuke &lt;Br&gt; Eisuke-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Wataru Takagi|Hondou Eisuke-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Juzo Megure| Eisuke-kun}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Others&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Eisuke}}<br /> {{Appellations|Heiji Hattori|Hondou Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Ai Haibara|Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Shinichi Kudo|-|Shinichi-san &lt;br&gt; Kudo Shinichi}}<br /> <br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;/tabs&gt;<br /> <br /> == Plot overview ==<br /> === Secret Path to School (Manga: [[Volume 49#Missing Classmate Case|507]], Anime: [[Super Secret of the Road to School|427-428]]) ===<br /> Ran mentions they have a new transfer student in their school who looks like Rena Mizunashi, that student is Eisuke Hondou. With that description, Kogoro expects that Eisuke is a girl before actually meeting him. Conan, who has fallen asleep, doesn't hear about it.&lt;ref&gt;[[Super Secret of the Road to School|Episode 427-428: Super Secret of the Road to School]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === The Two Who Cannot Return (Manga: [[Volume 49#Locked Car Murder Case|508-510]], Anime: [[Two People Who Can't Return|429-430]]) ===<br /> Ran's new classmate, Eisuke Hondou, wants to meet Kogoro Mouri so he visits his office. He says he wants to meet Kogoro to borrow some of his luck, and considers Kogoro's way of solving cases while sleeping as when God comes to him. Eisuke accompanies Kogoro and they discover a body. He starts observing Kogoro and even questions why Conan is beside Kogoro while solving the case. Conan begins to suspect Eisuke, but drops it when he hits his head on the car's headliner.&lt;ref&gt;[[Two People Who Can't Return|Episode 429-430: Two People Who Can't Return]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Sealed Western Window (Manga: [[Volume 51#Sealed Window Case|530-532]], Anime: [[The Sealed Western-Style Window|446-447]]) ===<br /> Eisuke and Conan are beginning to grow suspicious of each other. It is shown that Eisuke may be easily scared in his reactions to the tales of the demon. He also makes some impressive deductions in relation to the murder case, but his solution is ultimately incorrect. Because Eisuke is watching him, Conan is forced to send Yamamura a text with the case solution pretending to be Kogoro.<br /> <br /> === Shadows of the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume 53#Giant Hammer Case|550]]-[[Volume 54#Mysterious Job Case|555]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|462-465]]) ===<br /> Conan starts getting more suspicious of Eisuke. He suspects that Eisuke is related to Rena Mizunashi as well as the Black Organization. He realizes that Eisuke keeps on trying to put the subject on Rena Mizunashi by telling them hints about a missing TV personality lately, bringing them to the place wherein she got into an accident and taken custody by the FBI and other Rena-related things. He also notices that they have the same technique to find out if someone lied where Rena tested it on Conan before.&lt;ref&gt;[[The Shadow of the Black Organization|Episode 462-465: The Shadow of the Black Organization]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Nail and Snake (Manga: [[Volume 53#Giant Hammer Case|551]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|462-463]]) ===<br /> <br /> === The Mysterious Job (Manga: [[Volume 54#Mysterious Job Case|554-555]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|464-465]]) ===<br /> Eisuke reads a homepage about Rena Mizunashi and finds a post entry about Toji, who the homepage's administrator met, talking about seeing Rena having an accident with a motorbike. Eisuke found some entries about the administrator's strange job, which required taking trash from Toji's neighborhood and switch it with the trash from next time's collaboration, and decided to use it as a case request to Kogoro Mouri and have an excuse to visit Toji's house and meet him. When Conan (via Kogoro) sends Eisuke out of the house along with Ran and Toji, Eisuke gets the opportunity to question Toji. From that Eisuke realized that Rena must be hospitalized.<br /> <br /> === The Unsmashable Snowman (Manga: [[Volume 54|556-558]], Anime: [[The Unsmashable Snowman|466-467]]) ===<br /> Conan mentioned Eisuke to Ai. He thinks that the reason that he led Conan, Ran and Kogoro to the mysterious job case, was in order to meet Touji, the witness of Kir's accident. The man who was hired for the job had posted on his blog about Touji and his story, so both Eisuke and Vermouth must have read it and sought out Touji to gain more details. Conan felt that he's not a bad person but Ai cautioned Conan that he was just acting to let his guard down but Conan responded that he saw him crying and thought that he was unable to solve some problem or there was something else but Conan decided to let it go for now.<br /> <br /> === Three Days with Heiji Hattori (Manga: [[Volume 54|559]]-[[Volume 55|566]], Anime: [[Three Days with Heiji Hattori|479]]) ===<br /> Conan mentioned Eisuke to Heiji and asked Heiji to Check on something. Heiji asked why he had to do it and if Eisuke had something do with Osaka. Conan responded that he wanted him to check on the person who had the same eyes as Eisuke, Rena Mizunashi, and told Heiji that she was a Black Organization member. Heiji was shocked then Conan told him about the her accident and Conan told him to look up on Eisuke background while looking over on her background.<br /> <br /> === Whereabouts of the Dark Photograph (Manga: [[Volume 56|582-584]], Anime: [[Whereabouts of the Dark Photograph|484-485]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Billing Fraud Case (Manga: [[Volume 56|585-586]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|491]]) ===<br /> When Ran, Sonoko, and Conan visit a friend from Middle School in a hospital, they coincidentally meet Eisuke who is looking for his sister, who left 10 years ago. His sister looks exactly like Rena Mizunashi but Eisuke insists that they are different people. To determine whether they are the same or not, they decide to visit a big fan of hers to confirm it. Koushi Anno, a big fan of Rena, tells them that he thinks they're the same person and show them a video wherein Rena has the same hairstyle as in the picture. But Eisuke insists that they are different since the video proves that Rena's blood type is AB, which can't be possible because when he was a kid, he remembered receiving a blood transfusion from her sister and his blood type had been O. <br /> <br /> === Deceased Mother's Memento (Manga: [[Volume 57|587-590]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|492-494]]) ===<br /> [[File:EP494-2.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan imagines Eisuke and Ran bathing together.]]<br /> Ran tells Sonoko that she knew where Rena Mizunashi was addressed. Sonoko asks why she did not tell Eisuke. Ran replies saying that she thought that Eisuke would be disappointed that Rena was not his sister. Conan assured that the Black Organization would take an interest in Eisuke because he shared resemblances to Rena. When Sonoko asked about his blood type, Eisuke fell down and said his blood type is O. Then he accompanied Kogoro to a client who was close to his mother who work as a housekeeper. There, Eisuke found his birth certificate showing that his blood type is O, leaving his sister's blood type unsolved. When Eiko Okudaira assumes that Ran was Eisuke's girlfriend, Ran says to her that it's nothing like that, while Eisuke says that she was not his girlfriend. Conan explains that they were here to find out what Eisuke's blood type was, and asked if he was right while looking at Eisuke with a jealous face. While solving a case, the butler tells Conan that Ran and Eisuke were in the bathroom. Conan thought that they were bathing but discovers that Ran was helping him change his clothes. Ran told Conan that she was a bit surprised when he took off his shirt in front of her so suddenly. Conan notices a scar on Eisuke's chest and wonders about what it could be.<br /> <br /> === Clash of Red and Black (Manga: [[Volume 57#Fake Patient Case|595]]-[[Volume 59#Foreign Suspect Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]]) ===<br /> After winter break, Conan learns that Ran has lost contact with Eisuke. The last time that Eisuke talked to her was when he told her that he found a clue on his father's company in Haido Central Hospital, the same hospital wherein Rena was secretly confined. Conan decide to inform Jodie about his suspicions on Eisuke. Jodie tells him that Eisuke's father was CIA spy and was killed by Rena four years ago. He later realizes that Eisuke found a Black Organization member and is currently in the hospital. The FBI decide to search for the undercover Black Organization member. While searching in the hospital for clue on Eisuke and the Black Organization, a nurse informs Conan that she remembers that Eisuke had a surgery in Tokyo due to his leukemia. <br /> <br /> The night before they decide to move Rena, Eisuke visits Rena's room and attempts to force her to wake up. When he tries to stab her with scissors, Rena stops him and calls him Ei-chan. She tells Eisuke that it is reason enough to get out of this without asking her anything else, but Eisuke refuses to believe it, saying that her blood type is AB while his is O. Conan appears and says that his blood type is now AB and that Rena, who is actually his sister, is member of a certain organization. Hidemi and Eisuke now have the same blood type, AB, after he received a bone marrow transplant from her when he had leukemia. Eisuke is shocked at this revelation. Conan explains that he heard his from a nurse who also explained that the scar in the middle of his chest was due to multiple insertion of a needle to test a tumor that was circulating in the marrow. Eisuke asks why did she not tell him about it and why she changed her name and became an announcer. Conan says that she is a CIA agent, as well as his father, Ethan Hondou. Rena becoming an announcer was part of the plan, and she was going to pretend to be a different person if he came after her. Conan respond to Hidemi that the plan backfired since Eisuke come see her in this condition. Eisuke becomes confused and asks about the organization. Akai then appears and says that this is all the information he is permitted to know. Camel forces Eisuke to leave.&lt;ref&gt;[[Clash of Red and Black|Episode 491-504: Clash of Red and Black]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Karaoke Box Case (Manga: [[Volume 59|619]]-[[Volume 60|621]], Anime: [[The Blind Spot in the Karaoke Box|507-508]]) ===<br /> Conan and Haibara meet Ran, Sonoko and Eisuke in a book store. Conan ask Eisuke that he heard that he was not in school for awhile, Ran respond that Eisuke reinstated today and Ran mention that she heard that Eisuke was absent due to a illness and was recuperated from illness while Sonoko tease him that it was Love Sickness and Eisuke respond it just only a regular illness. Eisuke remarks that &quot;he probably won't need&quot; a study book the girls are buying, and that he &quot;hates to be restricted by anything; even time.&quot; Eisuke visits a karaoke box along with Ran, Sonoko, and Conan. Conan and Haibara notice that a man is trailing the group, and Conan suggests that the man is likely an FBI agent keeping tabs on Eisuke, since he refused access to the Witness Protection Program.<br /> <br /> In the karaoke box, Eisuke leaves to visit the bathroom. He takes a very long time to return, and does so with a terrified expression. The body of the man trailing the group is discovered in another room. Conan suspects Eisuke, since he is under the impression that the deceased was tracking him. However, it is soon revealed that the man was in fact a stalker with a fixation on Sonoko. (What had frightened Eisuke was when he mistakenly opened another customer's room, he saw what he mistook as two men kissing.) Ran is very glad that Eisuke is innocent, to the point where her eyes become tearful.<br /> <br /> At the ending of the case, Eisuke walks home alone with Conan. He asks Conan to speak with Shinichi about his intentions to marry Ran and live with her in America. Conan angrily tells him that he can't, and reveals his identity as Shinichi Kudo to Eisuke. Eisuke laughs, and informs Conan that he had guessed it all along- showing all his deductions to Conan. He then tells Conan that he will move to America and join the CIA, following in his father and sister's footsteps. He admits that he was looking into Kogoro, because he had heard he was the last person to see Rena Mizunashi before she disappeared. He had concluded that Kogoro was sheltering her some way, but after checking him out, Eisuke realized that there was a big difference in his skill before and after he becomes the sleeping Kogoro. He connected Kogoro's rise as detective with Shinichi's absent from school and with Conan's present. But he did fell in love with Ran, so he asks Shinichi to make her happy.<br /> <br /> == Relationships analysis ==<br /> === Hidemi Hondou ===<br /> [[File:Hidemi and Eisuke.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Hidemi carrying Eisuke when he was a child.]]<br /> His sister had always taken care of him. Eisuke mentioned that when he was a child, he got injured after getting hit by a car, and she saved his life by donating her blood to him. Eisuke said that she was the reason why he's alive today and try to find her. While infiltrating the Black Organization, Hidemi had to cut off all contact with her family including Eisuke. Eisuke never gave up on finding his older sister even though she left when Eisuke was only about seven. Hidemi seemed to care a lot about Eisuke despite being separated; she burst into tears after meeting a young child who had been stalking her because she looked like his dead mother. When she discovered Eisuke was getting close to her trying to uncover her identity, she risked a meeting with Kogoro Mouri, hoping to convince him to take Eisuke away from her to keep him safe, and promised to tell information to the FBI if they put Eisuke in the witness protection program.<br /> <br /> === Ran Mouri ===<br /> [[File:EP430 6.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran and Eisuke during a case.]]<br /> In [[The Blind Spot in the Karaoke Box]], Eisuke has some interest in [[Ran Mouri|Ran]]. He admits to Conan that he loves Ran and claims that he would take Ran to America and live happily ever after there, and wonders if he should ask for Shinichi's permission. Conan, without hesitating, refuses, revealing his identity.<br /> <br /> === Conan Edogawa ===<br /> Eisuke shows interest in Conan. Eisuke often asks why Conan was around when Kogoro solved cases. Later, Conan reveals himself as Shinichi to Eisuke, and Eisuke reveals that he had suspected Conan's identity for a while. They share a neutral farewell when he goes to America to to join the CIA in his father and sister's footsteps.<br /> <br /> === Ethan Hondou ===<br /> Ethan Hondou was Eisuke's father. They used to eat okonomiyaki together at a restaurant when Eisuke was a child. Ethan later committed suicide in order to cover Hidemi's identity as a CIA operative.<br /> <br /> === Mrs. Hondou ===<br /> Eisuke lived with his mother during his childhood until she passed away. He shares a great resemblance with her.<br /> <br /> === Kogoro Mouri ===<br /> Eisuke had originally suspected that Kogoro had hide Rena Mizunashi away and did research on him. However he noticed a big difference between his detective skills and the skills of Sleeping Kogoro, which turned his attention to Conan.<br /> <br /> == Name origin ==<br /> Eisuke's name comes from &quot;Bondo&quot; (ボンド), the Japanese pronunciation of (James) &quot;Bond&quot;, and mystery writer {{nihongo|[[wikipedia:ja:海渡英祐|Eisuke Kaito]]|海渡 英祐|Kaito Eisuke}}.

Following this revelation, he was offered a place in the Witness Protection Program, which he refused, though he decided to follow in his family's footsteps by joining the CIA one day. Alone with Conan, he also confessed that he had fallen in love with Ran and wished to take her with him to America. When Conan protested, Eisuke laughed out loud, stating that Conan's reaction was the final confirmation he had needed: that Conan was really [[Shinichi Kudo]], and that in fact he was responsible for the &quot;Sleeping Kogoro's success.&quot; With this revelation, he asked Conan/Shinichi to take good care of Ran in his stead, thus promising to keep his secret.<br /> <br /> == Personality ==<br /> Eisuke is a person with extremely bad luck. He's constantly bumping into or falling over something. However, his clumsiness belies a sharp intellect and keen talent for observation: With only few clues to work with, he was able to track down his vanished sister to the Haido Central Hospital, where the FBI was keeping her under guard, and even penetrate the facility to confront Rena Mizunashi - who really was his sister [[Hidemi Hondou|Hidemi]] - before he was discovered by Conan. He figured out that Shinichi and Conan were the same person before even meeting Conan and managed to force to the truth out of him later.<br /> <br /> As a person, Eisuke is usually quite jovial and friendly, though very emotional at times; in stressful situations he often lets his feelings get the better of him.<br /> <br /> ==Abilities==<br /> Eisuke has extremely bad luck and is very clumsy, but he has a sharp intellect and keen skills of observation, being able to search for his sister and tracking Rena Mizunashi. He also [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|discovered Conan's true identity]]. However, he failed to consider that Mizunashi could still be his sister despite having incompatible blood types, showing his lack of trivial knowledge when compared with, e.g., Conan.<br /> <br /> == Appellations ==<br /> &lt;tabs jsId=&quot;nicknames&quot;&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Friends &amp;amp; relatives&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Hidemi Hondou|Ei-chan &lt;br&gt; Eisuke|Mizunashi Rena (once) &lt;br&gt; Hidemi-nēsan &lt;br&gt; Sister (''Ane'') &lt;br&gt; Mizunashi-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Ethan Hondou|-|Father (''Chichi'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Mrs. Hondou|-|Mother (''Haha'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Conan Edogawa|Eisuke-niichan &lt;br&gt; Eisuke &lt;br&gt; Hondou Eisuke|Conan-kun &lt;br&gt; Kudo Shinichi}}<br /> {{appellations|Ran Mouri|Eisuke-kun|Ran-san &lt;br&gt; Mouri-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Kogoro Mouri|Clumsy brat (''bukiyō na gaki'')|Great Detective (''Meitantei'') &lt;br&gt; Mouri-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Sonoko Suzuki|Eisuke-kun &lt;br&gt; Clumsy boy (''Dojikko'')|Suzuki-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Nakamichi|Hondou}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Law enforcement&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Shuichi Akai|[[Ethan Hondou|NOC]]'s son (''NOC no musuko'') &lt;br&gt; Brother (''otōto''; talking to [[Hidemi Hondou|Hidemi]])}}<br /> {{appellations|Jodie Starling|Eisuke &lt;Br&gt; Eisuke-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Wataru Takagi|Hondou Eisuke-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Juzo Megure| Eisuke-kun}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Others&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Eisuke}}<br /> {{Appellations|Heiji Hattori|Hondou Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Ai Haibara|Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Shinichi Kudo|-|Shinichi-san &lt;br&gt; Kudo Shinichi}}<br /> <br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;/tabs&gt;<br /> <br /> == Plot overview ==<br /> === Secret Path to School (Manga: [[Volume 49#Missing Classmate Case|507]], Anime: [[Super Secret of the Road to School|427-428]]) ===<br /> Ran mentions they have a new transfer student in their school who looks like Rena Mizunashi, that student is Eisuke Hondou. With that description, Kogoro expects that Eisuke is a girl before actually meeting him. Conan, who has fallen asleep, doesn't hear about it.&lt;ref&gt;[[Super Secret of the Road to School|Episode 427-428: Super Secret of the Road to School]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === The Two Who Cannot Return (Manga: [[Volume 49#Locked Car Murder Case|508-510]], Anime: [[Two People Who Can't Return|429-430]]) ===<br /> Ran's new classmate, Eisuke Hondou, wants to meet Kogoro Mouri so he visits his office. He says he wants to meet Kogoro to borrow some of his luck, and considers Kogoro's way of solving cases while sleeping as when God comes to him. Eisuke accompanies Kogoro and they discover a body. He starts observing Kogoro and even questions why Conan is beside Kogoro while solving the case. Conan begins to suspect Eisuke, but drops it when he hits his head on the car's headliner.&lt;ref&gt;[[Two People Who Can't Return|Episode 429-430: Two People Who Can't Return]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Sealed Western Window (Manga: [[Volume 51#Sealed Window Case|530-532]], Anime: [[The Sealed Western-Style Window|446-447]]) ===<br /> Eisuke and Conan are beginning to grow suspicious of each other. It is shown that Eisuke may be easily scared in his reactions to the tales of the demon. He is also able to make some impressive deductions in relation to the murder case, but eventually, his solution is incorrect. Conan is forced to send Yamamura a text with the case solution pretending to be Kogoro, when he noticed that Eisuke is watching him.<br /> <br /> === Shadows of the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume 53#Giant Hammer Case|550]]-[[Volume 54#Mysterious Job Case|555]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|462-465]]) ===<br /> Conan starts getting more suspicious of Eisuke. He suspects that Eisuke is related to Rena Mizunashi as well as the Black Organization. He realizes that Eisuke keeps on trying to put the subject on Rena Mizunashi by telling them hints about a missing TV personality lately, bringing them to the place wherein she got into an accident and taken custody by the FBI and other Rena-related things. He also notices that they have the same technique to find out if someone lied where Rena tested it on Conan before.&lt;ref&gt;[[The Shadow of the Black Organization|Episode 462-465: The Shadow of the Black Organization]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Nail and Snake (Manga: [[Volume 53#Giant Hammer Case|551]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|462-463]]) ===<br /> <br /> === The Mysterious Job (Manga: [[Volume 54#Mysterious Job Case|554-555]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|464-465]]) ===<br /> Eisuke reads a homepage about Rena Mizunashi and finds a post entry about Toji, who the homepage's administrator met, talking about seeing Rena having an accident with a motorbike. Eisuke found some entries about the administrator's strange job, which required taking trash from Toji's neighborhood and switch it with the trash from next time's collaboration, and decided to use it as a case request to Kogoro Mouri and have an excuse to visit Toji's house and meet him. When Conan (via Kogoro) sends Eisuke out of the house along with Ran and Toji, Eisuke gets the opportunity to question Toji. From that Eisuke realized that Rena must be hospitalized.<br /> <br /> === The Unsmashable Snowman (Manga: [[Volume 54|556-558]], Anime: [[The Unsmashable Snowman|466-467]]) ===<br /> Conan mentioned Eisuke to Ai. He thinks that the reason that he led Conan, Ran and Kogoro to the mysterious job case, was in order to meet Touji, the witness of Kir's accident. The man who was hired for the job had posted on his blog about Touji and his story, so both Eisuke and Vermouth must have read it and sought out Touji to gain more details. Conan felt that he's not a bad person but Ai cautioned Conan that he was just acting to let his guard down but Conan responded that he saw him crying and thought that he was unable to solve some problem or there was something else but Conan decided to let it go for now.<br /> <br /> === Three Days with Heiji Hattori (Manga: [[Volume 54|559]]-[[Volume 55|566]], Anime: [[Three Days with Heiji Hattori|479]]) ===<br /> Conan mentioned Eisuke to Heiji and asked Heiji to Check on something. Heiji asked why he had to do it and if Eisuke had something do with Osaka. Conan responded that he wanted him to check on the person who had the same eyes as Eisuke, Rena Mizunashi, and told Heiji that she was a Black Organization member. Heiji was shocked then Conan told him about the her accident and Conan told him to look up on Eisuke background while looking over on her background.<br /> <br /> === Whereabouts of the Dark Photograph (Manga: [[Volume 56|582-584]], Anime: [[Whereabouts of the Dark Photograph|484-485]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Billing Fraud Case (Manga: [[Volume 56|585-586]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|491]]) ===<br /> When Ran, Sonoko, and Conan visit a friend from Middle School in a hospital, they coincidentally meet Eisuke who is looking for his sister, who left 10 years ago. His sister looks exactly like Rena Mizunashi but Eisuke insists that they are different people. To determine whether they are the same or not, they decide to visit a big fan of hers to confirm it. Koushi Anno, a big fan of Rena, tells them that he thinks they're the same person and show them a video wherein Rena has the same hairstyle as in the picture. But Eisuke insists that they are different since the video proves that Rena's blood type is AB, which can't be possible because when he was a kid, he remembered receiving a blood transfusion from her sister and his blood type had been O. <br /> <br /> === Deceased Mother's Memento (Manga: [[Volume 57|587-590]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|492-494]]) ===<br /> [[File:EP494-2.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan imagines Eisuke and Ran bathing together.]]<br /> Ran tells Sonoko that she knew where Rena Mizunashi was addressed. Sonoko asks why she did not tell Eisuke. Ran replies saying that she thought that Eisuke would be disappointed that Rena was not his sister. Conan assured that the Black Organization would take an interest in Eisuke because he shared resemblances to Rena. When Sonoko asked about his blood type, Eisuke fell down and said his blood type is O. Then he accompanied Kogoro to a client who was close to his mother who work as a housekeeper. There, Eisuke found his birth certificate showing that his blood type is O, leaving his sister's blood type unsolved. When Eiko Okudaira assumes that Ran was Eisuke's girlfriend, Ran says to her that it's nothing like that, while Eisuke says that she was not his girlfriend. Conan explains that they were here to find out what Eisuke's blood type was, and asked if he was right while looking at Eisuke with a jealous face. While solving a case, the butler tells Conan that Ran and Eisuke were in the bathroom. Conan thought that they were bathing but discovers that Ran was helping him change his clothes. Ran told Conan that she was a bit surprised when he took off his shirt in front of her so suddenly. Conan notices a scar on Eisuke's chest and wonders about what it could be.<br /> <br /> === Clash of Red and Black (Manga: [[Volume 57#Fake Patient Case|595]]-[[Volume 59#Foreign Suspect Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]]) ===<br /> After winter break, Conan learns that Ran has lost contact with Eisuke. The last time that Eisuke talked to her was when he told her that he found a clue on his father's company in Haido Central Hospital, the same hospital wherein Rena was secretly confined. Conan decide to inform Jodie about his suspicions on Eisuke. Jodie tells him that Eisuke's father was CIA spy and was killed by Rena four years ago. He later realizes that Eisuke found a Black Organization member and is currently in the hospital. The FBI decide to search for the undercover Black Organization member. While searching in the hospital for clue on Eisuke and the Black Organization, a nurse informs Conan that she remembers that Eisuke had a surgery in Tokyo due to his leukemia. <br /> <br /> The night before they decide to move Rena, Eisuke visits Rena's room and attempts to force her to wake up. When he tries to stab her with scissors, Rena stops him and calls him Ei-chan. She tells Eisuke that it is reason enough to get out of this without asking her anything else, but Eisuke refuses to believe it, saying that her blood type is AB while his is O. Conan appears and says that his blood type is now AB and that Rena, who is actually his sister, is member of a certain organization. Hidemi and Eisuke now have the same blood type, AB, after he received a bone marrow transplant from her when he had leukemia. Eisuke is shocked at this revelation. Conan explains that he heard his from a nurse who also explained that the scar in the middle of his chest was due to multiple insertion of a needle to test a tumor that was circulating in the marrow. Eisuke asks why did she not tell him about it and why she changed her name and became an announcer. Conan says that she is a CIA agent, as well as his father, Ethan Hondou. Rena becoming an announcer was part of the plan, and she was going to pretend to be a different person if he came after her. Conan respond to Hidemi that the plan backfired since Eisuke come see her in this condition. Eisuke becomes confused and asks about the organization. Akai then appears and says that this is all the information he is permitted to know. Camel forces Eisuke to leave.&lt;ref&gt;[[Clash of Red and Black|Episode 491-504: Clash of Red and Black]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Karaoke Box Case (Manga: [[Volume 59|619]]-[[Volume 60|621]], Anime: [[The Blind Spot in the Karaoke Box|507-508]]) ===<br /> Conan and Haibara meet Ran, Sonoko and Eisuke in a book store. Conan ask Eisuke that he heard that he was not in school for awhile, Ran respond that Eisuke reinstated today and Ran mention that she heard that Eisuke was absent due to a illness and was recuperated from illness while Sonoko tease him that it was Love Sickness and Eisuke respond it just only a regular illness. Eisuke remarks that &quot;he probably won't need&quot; a study book the girls are buying, and that he &quot;hates to be restricted by anything; even time.&quot; Eisuke visits a karaoke box along with Ran, Sonoko, and Conan. Conan and Haibara notice that a man is trailing the group, and Conan suggests that the man is likely an FBI agent keeping tabs on Eisuke, since he refused access to the Witness Protection Program.<br /> <br /> In the karaoke box, Eisuke leaves to visit the bathroom. He takes a very long time to return, and does so with a terrified expression. The body of the man trailing the group is discovered in another room. Conan suspects Eisuke, since he is under the impression that the deceased was tracking him. However, it is soon revealed that the man was in fact a stalker with a fixation on Sonoko. (What had frightened Eisuke was when he mistakenly opened another customer's room, he saw what he mistook as two men kissing.) Ran is very glad that Eisuke is innocent, to the point where her eyes become tearful.<br /> <br /> At the ending of the case, Eisuke walks home alone with Conan. He asks Conan to speak with Shinichi about his intentions to marry Ran and live with her in America. Conan angrily tells him that he can't, and reveals his identity as Shinichi Kudo to Eisuke. Eisuke laughs, and informs Conan that he had guessed it all along- showing all his deductions to Conan. He then tells Conan that he will move to America and join the CIA, following in his father and sister's footsteps. He admits that he was looking into Kogoro, because he had heard he was the last person to see Rena Mizunashi before she disappeared. He had concluded that Kogoro was sheltering her some way, but after checking him out, Eisuke realized that there was a big difference in his skill before and after he becomes the sleeping Kogoro. He connected Kogoro's rise as detective with Shinichi's absent from school and with Conan's present. But he did fell in love with Ran, so he asks Shinichi to make her happy.<br /> <br /> == Relationships analysis ==<br /> === Hidemi Hondou ===<br /> [[File:Hidemi and Eisuke.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Hidemi carrying Eisuke when he was a child.]]<br /> His sister had always taken care of him. Eisuke mentioned that when he was a child, he got injured after getting hit by a car, and she saved his life by donating her blood to him. Eisuke said that she was the reason why he's alive today and try to find her. While infiltrating the Black Organization, Hidemi had to cut off all contact with her family including Eisuke. Eisuke never gave up on finding his older sister even though she left when Eisuke was only about seven. Hidemi seemed to care a lot about Eisuke despite being separated; she burst into tears after meeting a young child who had been stalking her because she looked like his dead mother. When she discovered Eisuke was getting close to her trying to uncover her identity, she risked a meeting with Kogoro Mouri, hoping to convince him to take Eisuke away from her to keep him safe, and promised to tell information to the FBI if they put Eisuke in the witness protection program.<br /> <br /> === Ran Mouri ===<br /> [[File:EP430 6.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran and Eisuke during a case.]]<br /> In [[The Blind Spot in the Karaoke Box]], Eisuke has some interest in [[Ran Mouri|Ran]]. He admits to Conan that he loves Ran and claims that he would take Ran to America and live happily ever after there, and wonders if he should ask for Shinichi's permission. Conan, without hesitating, refuses, revealing his identity.<br /> <br /> === Conan Edogawa ===<br /> Eisuke shows interest in Conan. Eisuke often asks why Conan was around when Kogoro solved cases. Later, Conan reveals himself as Shinichi to Eisuke, and Eisuke reveals that he had suspected Conan's identity for a while. They share a neutral farewell when he goes to America to to join the CIA in his father and sister's footsteps.<br /> <br /> === Ethan Hondou ===<br /> Ethan Hondou was Eisuke's father. They used to eat okonomiyaki together at a restaurant when Eisuke was a child. Ethan later committed suicide in order to cover Hidemi's identity as a CIA operative.<br /> <br /> === Mrs. Hondou ===<br /> Eisuke lived with his mother during his childhood until she passed away. He shares a great resemblance with her.<br /> <br /> === Kogoro Mouri ===<br /> Eisuke had originally suspected that Kogoro had hide Rena Mizunashi away and did research on him. However he noticed a big difference between his detective skills and the skills of Sleeping Kogoro, which turned his attention to Conan.<br /> <br /> == Name origin ==<br /> Eisuke's name comes from &quot;Bondo&quot; (ボンド), the Japanese pronunciation of (James) &quot;Bond&quot;, and mystery writer {{nihongo|[[wikipedia:ja:海渡英祐|Eisuke Kaito]]|海渡 英祐|Kaito Eisuke}}.

Eisuke lived with his mother, who worked as a housekeeper, unaware that his father was CIA-agent. His older sister Hidemi was in school abroad during that time, but came and visited during holidays, while his father lived and worked in Osaka and came by on New Year. Eisuke was very sick as a child and was very close with his sister, who always took him to the hospital. During those trip Hidemi told her brother that had a bloodtype that he could share with everyone (meaning he was born a type O). At some point during his childhood in Tokyo he became ill of leukemia and to treat him, Hidemi donated her own bone marrow to him. The operation was a success, but unknown to Eisuke his bloodtype changed from O to AB, because it was Hidemi's blood type and in such treatments the patient's bloodtype can change to the donor's bloodtype. After that his mother passed away due to illness, and Eisuke's father brought him to Osaka to live with him. There he was injured in an accident, and Hidemi was used as blood donor, which was possible, since the siblings now had same bloodtype. But after that surgery, Hidemi left and Eisuke lost contact with her. Soon after Eisuke's father left him in care with a friend to work undercover in the black organisation, but until his death he still had contact with his son and send him money.<br /> <br /> Eisuke Hondou first appeared soon after one of [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s confrontations with the [[Black Organization]], in which it was revealed that popular newscaster [[Hidemi Hondou|Rena Mizunashi]] was one of their members. He enlisted into Teitan High School and quickly made friends with [[Ran Mouri]] and [[Sonoko Suzuki]], who noticed the striking similarity to Mizunashi.<br /> <br /> Eisuke had been investigating Rena Mizunashi, noticing the resemblance she had with his sister and suspected that she was connected to Hidemi's disappearance. He learned that Kogoro Mouri was the last to meet her, before she took time off and concluded first he was hiding her somewhere. But as he made research on the detective, he discovered a big difference in his deduction skills before and after he become 'Sleeping Kogoro' and noticed that Conan was always by his side.<br /> <br /> Some time later, Eisuke visited [[Kogoro Mouri|Ran's father]] in his office, where he also ran into Conan. After expressing a vivid interest in Mouri's work, he was invited by Ran to come by anytime, much to the displeasure of Conan, who had become suspicious of Eisuke. This suspicion was confirmed by the fact that in subsequent cases Eisuke made several blunders which would 'incidentally' contribute to the solution of the relevant case.<br /> [[Image:Eisuke hondou eating with his father.jpg|thumb|200px|Eisuke eating okonomiyaki with his father when he was a kid.]]<br /> In time, Conan found out that Eisuke was indeed related to Rena Mizunashi. He had come to Tokyo looking for clues of his sister's whereabouts, sparked by him seeing her working as a newscaster by happenstance. He learned the truth from Conan, Hidemi and [[Shuichi Akai]] - that his sister, as well as [[Ethan Hondou|his late father]], were working for the CIA against the Black Organization. Following this revelation, he was offered a place in the Witness Protection Program, which he refused, though he decided to follow in his family's footsteps by joining the CIA one day. Alone with Conan, he also confessed that he had fallen in love with Ran and wished to take her with him to America. When Conan protested, Eisuke laughed out loud, stating that Conan's reaction was the final confirmation he had needed: that Conan was really [[Shinichi Kudo]], and that in fact he was responsible for the &quot;Sleeping Kogoro's success.&quot; With this revelation, he asked Conan/Shinichi to take good care of Ran in his stead, thus promising to keep his secret.<br /> <br /> == Personality ==<br /> Eisuke is a person with extremely bad luck. He's constantly bumping into or falling over something. However, his clumsiness belies a sharp intellect and keen talent for observation: With only few clues to work with, he was able to track down his vanished sister to the Haido Central Hospital, where the FBI was keeping her under guard, and even penetrate the facility to confront Rena Mizunashi - who really was his sister [[Hidemi Hondou|Hidemi]] - before he was discovered by Conan. He figured out that Shinichi and Conan were the same person before even meeting Conan and managed to force to the truth out of him later.<br /> <br /> As a person, Eisuke is usually quite jovial and friendly, though very emotional at times; in stressful situations he often lets his feelings get the better of him.<br /> <br /> ==Abilities==<br /> Eisuke has extremely bad luck and is very clumsy, but he has a sharp intellect and keen skills of observation, being able to search for his sister and tracking Rena Mizunashi.

With that description, Kogoro expects that Eisuke is a girl before actually meeting him. Conan, who has fallen asleep, doesn't hear about it.&lt;ref&gt;[[Super Secret of the Road to School|Episode 427-428: Super Secret of the Road to School]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === The Two Who Cannot Return (Manga: [[Volume 49#Locked Car Murder Case|508-510]], Anime: [[Two People Who Can't Return|429-430]]) ===<br /> Ran's new classmate, Eisuke Hondou wants to meet Kogoro Mouri so he visits his office. He says he wants to meet Kogoro to borrow some of his luck, and considers Kogoro's way of solving cases while sleeping as when God comes to him. Eisuke accompanies Kogoro and they discover a body. He starts observing Kogoro and even questions why Conan is beside Kogoro while solving the case. Conan begins to suspect Eisuke, but drop it when he hits his head on the car's headliner.&lt;ref&gt;[[Two People Who Can't Return|Episode 429-430: Two People Who Can't Return]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Sealed Western Window (Manga: [[Volume 51#Sealed Window Case|530-532]], Anime: [[The Sealed Western-Style Window|446-447]]) ===<br /> Eisuke and Conan are beginning to grow suspicious of each other. It is shown that Eisuke may be easily scared in his reactions to the tales of the demon. He is also able to make some impressive deductions in relation to the murder case, but eventually, his solution is incorrect. Conan is forced to send Yamamura a text with the case solution pretending to be Kogoro, when he noticed that Eisuke is watching him.<br /> <br /> === Shadows of the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume 53#Giant Hammer Case|550]]-[[Volume 54#Mysterious Job Case|555]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|462-465]]) ===<br /> Conan starts getting more suspicious of Eisuke. He suspects that Eisuke is related to Rena Mizunashi as well as the Black Organization. He realizes that Eisuke keeps on trying to put the subject on Rena Mizunashi by telling them hints about a missing TV personality lately, bringing them to the place wherein she got into an accident and taken custody by the FBI and other Rena-related things. He also notices that they have the same technique to find out if someone lied where Rena tested it on Conan before.&lt;ref&gt;[[The Shadow of the Black Organization|Episode 462-465: The Shadow of the Black Organization]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Nail and Snake (Manga: [[Volume 53#Giant Hammer Case|551]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|462-463]]) ===<br /> <br /> === The Mysterious Job (Manga: [[Volume 54#Mysterious Job Case|554-555]], Anime: [[The Shadow of the Black Organization|464-465]]) ===<br /> Eisuke reads a homepage about Rena Mizunashi and finds a post entry about Toji, who the homepage's administrator met, talking about seeing Rena having an accident with a motorbike. Eisuke found some entries about the administrator's strange job, which required taking trash from Toji's neighborhood and switch it with the trash from next time's collaboration, and decided to use it as a case request to Kogoro Mouri and have an excuse to visit Toji's house and meet him. When Conan (via Kogoro) sends Eisuke out of the house along with Ran and Toji, Eisuke gets the opportunity to question Toji. From that Eisuke realized that Rena must be hospitalized.<br /> <br /> === The Unsmashable Snowman (Manga: [[Volume 54|556-558]], Anime: [[The Unsmashable Snowman|466-467]]) ===<br /> Conan mentioned Eisuke to Ai. He thinks that the reason that he led Conan, Ran and Kogoro to the mysterious job case, was in order to meet Touji, the witness of Kir's accident. The man who was hired for the job had posted on his blog about Touji and his story, so both Eisuke and Vermouth must have read it and sought out Touji to gain more details. Conan felt that he's not a bad person but Ai cautioned Conan that he was just acting to let his guard down but Conan responded that he saw him crying and thought that he was unable to solve some problem or there was something else but Conan decided to let it go for now.<br /> <br /> === Three Days with Heiji Hattori (Manga: [[Volume 54|559]]-[[Volume 55|566]], Anime: [[Three Days with Heiji Hattori|479]]) ===<br /> Conan mentioned Eisuke to Heiji and asked Heiji to Check on something. Heiji asked why he had to do it and if Eisuke had something do with Osaka. Conan responded that he wanted him to check on the person who had the same eyes as Eisuke, Rena Mizunashi, and told Heiji that she was a Black Organization member. Heiji was shocked then Conan told him about the her accident and Conan told him to look up on Eisuke background while looking over on her background.<br /> <br /> === Whereabouts of the Dark Photograph (Manga: [[Volume 56|582-584]], Anime: [[Whereabouts of the Dark Photograph|484-485]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Billing Fraud Case (Manga: [[Volume 56|585-586]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|491]]) ===<br /> When Ran, Sonoko, and Conan visit a friend from Middle School in a hospital, they coincidentally meet Eisuke who is looking for his sister, who left 10 years ago. His sister looks exactly like Rena Mizunashi but Eisuke insists that they are different people. To determine whether they are the same or not, they decide to visit a big fan of hers to confirm it. Koushi Anno, a big fan of Rena, tells them that he thinks they're the same person and show them a video wherein Rena has the same hairstyle as in the picture. But Eisuke insists that they are different since the video proves that Rena's blood type is AB, which can't be possible because when he was a kid, he remembered receiving a blood transfusion from her sister and his blood type had been O. <br /> <br /> === Deceased Mother's Memento (Manga: [[Volume 57|587-590]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|492-494]]) ===<br /> [[File:EP494-2.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan imagines Eisuke and Ran bathing together.]]<br /> Ran tells Sonoko that she knew where Rena Mizunashi was addressed. Sonoko asks why she did not tell Eisuke. Ran replies saying that she thought that Eisuke would be disappointed that Rena was not his sister. Conan assured that the Black Organization would take an interest in Eisuke because he shared resemblances to Rena. When Sonoko asked about his blood type, Eisuke fell down and said his blood type is O. Then he accompanied Kogoro to a client who was close to his mother who work as a housekeeper. There, Eisuke found his birth certificate showing that his blood type is O, leaving his sister's blood type unsolved. When Eiko Okudaira assumes that Ran was Eisuke's girlfriend, Ran says to her that it's nothing like that, while Eisuke says that she was not his girlfriend. Conan explains that they were here to find out what Eisuke's blood type was, and asked if he was right while looking at Eisuke with a jealous face. While solving a case, the butler tells Conan that Ran and Eisuke were in the bathroom. Conan thought that they were bathing but discovers that Ran was helping him change his clothes. Ran told Conan that she was a bit surprised when he took off his shirt in front of her so suddenly. Conan notices a scar on Eisuke's chest and wonders about what it could be.<br /> <br /> === Clash of Red and Black (Manga: [[Volume 57#Fake Patient Case|595]]-[[Volume 59#Foreign Suspect Case|609]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|495-504]]) ===<br /> After winter break, Conan learns that Ran has lost contact with Eisuke. The last time that Eisuke talked to her was when he told her that he found a clue on his father's company in Haido Central Hospital, the same hospital wherein Rena was secretly confined. Conan decide to inform Jodie about his suspicions on Eisuke. Jodie tells him that Eisuke's father was CIA spy and was killed by Rena four years ago. He later realizes that Eisuke found a Black Organization member and is currently in the hospital. The FBI decide to search for the undercover Black Organization member. While searching in the hospital for clue on Eisuke and the Black Organization, a nurse informs Conan that she remembers that Eisuke had a surgery in Tokyo due to his leukemia. <br /> <br /> The night before they decide to move Rena, Eisuke visits Rena's room and attempts to force her to wake up. When he tries to stab her with scissors, Rena stops him and calls him Ei-chan. She tells Eisuke that it is reason enough to get out of this without asking her anything else, but Eisuke refuses to believe it, saying that her blood type is AB while his is O. Conan appears and says that his blood type is now AB and that Rena, who is actually his sister, is member of a certain organization. Hidemi and Eisuke now have the same blood type, AB, after he received a bone marrow transplant from her when he had leukemia. Eisuke is shocked at this revelation. Conan explains that he heard his from a nurse who also explained that the scar in the middle of his chest was due to multiple insertion of a needle to test a tumor that was circulating in the marrow. Eisuke asks why did she not tell him about it and why she changed her name and became an announcer. Conan says that she is a CIA agent, as well as his father, Ethan Hondou. Rena becoming an announcer was part of the plan, and she was going to pretend to be a different person if he came after her. Conan respond to Hidemi that the plan backfired since Eisuke come see her in this condition. Eisuke becomes confused and asks about the organization. Akai then appears and says that this is all the information he is permitted to know. Camel forces Eisuke to leave.&lt;ref&gt;[[Clash of Red and Black|Episode 491-504: Clash of Red and Black]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Karaoke Box Case (Manga: [[Volume 59|619]]-[[Volume 60|621]], Anime: [[The Blind Spot in the Karaoke Box|507-508]]) ===<br /> Conan and Haibara meet Ran, Sonoko and Eisuke in a book store. Conan ask Eisuke that he heard that he was not in school for awhile, Ran respond that Eisuke reinstated today and Ran mention that she heard that Eisuke was absent due to a illness and was recuperated from illness while Sonoko tease him that it was Love Sickness and Eisuke respond it just only a regular illness. Eisuke remarks that &quot;he probably won't need&quot; a study book the girls are buying, and that he &quot;hates to be restricted by anything; even time.&quot; Eisuke visits a karaoke box along with Ran, Sonoko, and Conan. Conan and Haibara notice that a man is trailing the group, and Conan suggests that the man is likely an FBI agent keeping tabs on Eisuke, since he refused access to the Witness Protection Program.<br /> <br /> In the karaoke box, Eisuke leaves to visit the bathroom. He takes a very long time to return, and does so with a terrified expression. The body of the man trailing the group is discovered in another room. Conan suspects Eisuke, since he is under the impression that the deceased was tracking him. However, it is soon revealed that the man was in fact a stalker with a fixation on Sonoko. (What had frightened Eisuke was when he mistakenly opened another customer's room, he saw what he mistook as two men kissing.) Ran is very glad that Eisuke is innocent, to the point where her eyes become tearful.<br /> <br /> At the ending of the case, Eisuke walks home alone with Conan. He asks Conan to speak with Shinichi about his intentions to marry Ran and live with her in America. Conan angrily tells him that he can't, and reveals his identity as Shinichi Kudo to Eisuke. Eisuke laughs, and informs Conan that he had guessed it all along- showing all his deductions to Conan. He then tells Conan that he will move to America and join the CIA, following in his father and sister's footsteps. He admits that he was looking into Kogoro, because he had heard he was the last person to see Rena Mizunashi before she disappeared. He had concluded that Kogoro was sheltering her some way, but after checking him out, Eisuke realized that there was a big difference in his skill before and after he becomes the sleeping Kogoro. He connected Kogoro's rise as detective with Shinichi's absent from school and with Conan's present. But he did fell in love with Ran, so he asks Shinichi to make her happy.<br /> <br /> == Relationships analysis ==<br /> === Hidemi Hondou ===<br /> [[File:Hidemi and Eisuke.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Hidemi carrying Eisuke when he was a child.]]<br /> His sister had always taken care of him. Eisuke mentioned that when he was a child, he got injured after getting hit by a car, and she saved his life by donating her blood to him. Eisuke said that she was the reason why he's alive today and try to find her. While infiltrating the Black Organization, Hidemi had to cut off all contact with her family including Eisuke. Eisuke never gave up on finding his older sister even though she left when Eisuke was only about seven. Hidemi seemed to care a lot about Eisuke despite being separated; she burst into tears after meeting a young child who had been stalking her because she looked like his dead mother. When she discovered Eisuke was getting close to her trying to uncover her identity, she risked a meeting with Kogoro Mouri, hoping to convince him to take Eisuke away from her to keep him safe, and promised to tell information to the FBI if they put Eisuke in the witness protection program.<br /> <br /> === Ran Mouri ===<br /> [[File:EP430 6.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ran and Eisuke during a case.]]<br /> In [[The Blind Spot in the Karaoke Box]], Eisuke has some interest in [[Ran Mouri|Ran]]. He admits to Conan that he loves Ran and claims that he would take Ran to America and live happily ever after there, and wonders if he should ask for Shinichi's permission. Conan, without hesitating, refuses, revealing his identity.<br /> <br /> === Conan Edogawa ===<br /> Eisuke shows interest in Conan. Eisuke often asks why Conan was around when Kogoro solved cases. Later, Conan reveals himself as Shinichi to Eisuke, and Eisuke reveals that he had suspected Conan's identity for a while. They share a neutral farewell when he goes to America to to join the CIA in his father and sister's footsteps.<br /> <br /> === Ethan Hondou ===<br /> Ethan Hondou was Eisuke's father. They used to eat okonomiyaki together at a restaurant when Eisuke was a child. Ethan later committed suicide in order to cover Hidemi's identity as a CIA operative.<br /> <br /> === Mrs. Hondou ===<br /> Eisuke lived with his mother during his childhood until she passed away. He shares a great resemblance with her.<br /> <br /> === Kogoro Mouri ===<br /> Eisuke had originally suspected that Kogoro had hide Rena Mizunashi away and did research on him. However he noticed a big difference between his detective skills and the skills of Sleeping Kogoro, which turned his attention to Conan.<br /> <br /> == Name origin ==<br /> Eisuke's name comes from &quot;Bondo&quot; (ボンド), the Japanese pronunciation of (James) &quot;Bond&quot;, and mystery writer {{nihongo|[[wikipedia:ja:海渡英祐|Eisuke Kaito]]|海渡 英祐|Kaito Eisuke}}.

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.&lt;ref name=StabbedWallet&gt;Manga Volume 19: Files 185 (Stabbed Wallet Case)&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> In the news, Heiji has been publicly declared the &quot;Great Detective of the West&quot;, while [[Shinichi Kudo]] is the &quot;Great Detective of the East&quot;. 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.&lt;ref&gt;Manga Chapters 518-522: Yuki-Onna Murder Case&lt;/ref&gt;) 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.&lt;ref&gt;Manga Chapters 092-096: The Great Detective Of The West&lt;/ref&gt;<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.&lt;ref&gt;Manga Chapters 121: The Holmes Freak Case: The Revelation&lt;/ref&gt; Ever since that revelation, Heiji has been helping Conan in hiding his secret identity, though he constantly slips up by calling him &quot;Kudo&quot; 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]],&lt;ref&gt;{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=34|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 2-7|language=English}}&lt;/ref&gt; or when Heiji investigated [[Eisuke Hondou]] on his own and then told Conan his findings&lt;ref&gt;{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=56|chapter=Files 7|language=Japanese}}&lt;/ref&gt;, 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 &quot;Detective Koushien&quot; 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.&lt;ref&gt;Manga Volume 59, File 6, pg 6: Armored Warrior&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;Manga Volume 59, File 7, pg 11: Art of War&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref name=653p3&gt;Manga Volume 63, File 1, page 3: My Deduction&lt;/ref&gt;<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 &quot;Kudo&quot; 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.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=26|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 1-7|language=English}}&lt;/ref&gt; <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.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=19|chapter=Files 5-8|language=Japanese}}&lt;/ref&gt; 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.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=39|language=Japanese}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> During the &quot;Bond of Fire&quot; 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 &quot;Stabbed Wallet&quot; 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 &quot;Conan's&quot; 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.&lt;ref&gt;Chapter 278&lt;/ref&gt; His eyes are blue in the manga (like every character). Initially, his eyes appeared dark green, but are now blue&lt;ref&gt;Episode 710&lt;/ref&gt;. 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.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 26# School Play Case|Manga Chapter 256: ''Concealed Truth'']]&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;OVA 06: ''[[Follow the Vanished Diamond! Conan &amp; Heiji vs. Kid!]]''&lt;/ref&gt; 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 &quot;The Great Detective Of The West.&quot; 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 &quot;genius&quot; 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 &quot;Heiji and Kazuha in Grave Danger&quot; 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 in episode 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 &quot;Kudou Radar&quot; where he correctly guessed Conan's involvement in the case without actually seeing Conan.<br /> <br /> == Appellations ==<br /> &lt;tabs jsId=&quot;nicknames&quot;&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Protagonists&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Heiji}}<br /> {{appellations|Shinichi Kudo|Hattori|Kudo}}<br /> {{appellations|Conan Edogawa|Hattori (alone) &lt;br&gt; Heiji-niichan &lt;br&gt; Heiji-kun (joke) &lt;br&gt; Dark skinned man (once) &lt;br&gt; Heiji (rarely)|Kudo (alone/accidentally)&lt;ref name=&quot;m13&quot;&gt;Movie 13: ''[[The Raven Chaser]]''&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;br&gt; Conan-kun &lt;br&gt; Kid &lt;br&gt; Little brat &lt;br&gt; brat &lt;br&gt; Boy (''Bōzu'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Ran Mouri|Hattori-kun &lt;br&gt; Heiji-kun &lt;br&gt; Brother Heiji (''Heiji-niisan'')|Sister/Miss (''Nēchan'') &lt;br&gt; Ran-san &lt;br&gt; Ran-chan}}<br /> {{appellations|Kogoro Mouri|Osaka brat &lt;br&gt; Detective boy &lt;br&gt; Hattori Heiji|Uncle (''otchan''; casual) &lt;br&gt; Uncle Mouri (''Mouri-no-otchan'')}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Friends and relatives&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Heiji}}<br /> {{appellations|Kazuha Toyama|Heiji &lt;br&gt; Detective Freak|Kazuha &lt;br&gt; Kazuha-chan (polite)}}<br /> {{appellations|Heizo Hattori|Heiji|Dad (''oyaji'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Shizuka Hattori|Heiji|Mom (''okan'') &lt;br&gt; Old lady (''obahan'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Hiroshi Agasa|Heiji-kun &lt;br&gt; Hattori-kun|Professor (''Hakase'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Sonoko Suzuki|Hattori-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Goro Otaki|Hei-chan|Otaki-han}}<br /> {{appellations|Masumi Sera|Hattori-kun|Female detective (''onna-tantei'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Sakurako Yonehara|Hattori-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Yukiko Kudo|Heiji-kun|[[Shinichi Kudo|His]] mom (''aitsu no okan'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Saguru Hakuba|Hattori Heiji-kun|-|}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Detective Boys&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Heiji}}<br /> {{appellations|Ayumi Yoshida|Heiji-oniichan}}<br /> {{appellations|Genta Kojima|Heiji-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Heiji-san &lt;br&gt; Hattori-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Ai Haibara|Osaka friend|That little girl &lt;br/&gt; That big sister}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Law enforcement&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Heiji}}<br /> {{appellations|Juzo Megure|Hattori-kun &lt;br&gt; Heiji-kun|Inspector Megure (''Megure-keibu'') &lt;br&gt; Inspector-san (''Keibu-san'')&lt;ref name=&quot;m13&quot;/&gt;}}<br /> {{appellations|Wataru Takagi|Heiji-kun &lt;br&gt; Hattori-kun|Detective Takagi (''Takagi-keiji'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Miwako Sato|Hattori-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Jodie Starling|[[Conan Edogawa|Cool Kid]]'s friend (''Cool Kid no tomodachi'') &lt;br&gt; Hattori-kun|Ms. Jodie}}<br /> {{appellations|Tsuyoshi Shikatsuno|Heiji-kun|Shikatsuno-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Kansuke Yamato|The detective kid from Osaka (''Osaka no tantei bōzu'')|That one-eyed police detective &lt;br&gt; Inspector Yamato (''Yamato-keibu'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Yui Uehara|The young, dark-skinned detective}}<br /> {{appellations|Misao Yamamura|Osaka-accented kid}}<br /> {{appellations|Fumimaro Ayanokoji|Hattori Heiji-kun&lt;ref name=&quot;m13&quot;/&gt;}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Others&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Heiji}}<br /> {{appellations|Eisuke Hondou|-|Hondou Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Momiji Ooka|Heiji-kun &lt;br&gt; My future husband (''uchi no mirai no danna-san'')|Momiji}}<br /> {{Appellations|Soshi Okita|Hattori-kun|Okita}}<br /> {{Appellations|Muga Iori|Hattori-sama|Iori-san}}<br /> {{Appellations|Kaitou Kid|-|Kaitou Kid}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;/tabs&gt;<br /> <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 &quot;[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]&quot; that Heiji, despite professing a preference for [[Wikipedia: Ellery Queen|Ellery Queen]], exercises the Holmesian axiom: &quot;When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.&quot; 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, &quot;perhaps we should have let her die.&quot; Conan replies that &quot;a detective who corners a murderer with logic and then lets them commit suicide is no better than a murderer.&quot;<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 &quot;K&quot;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 &quot;kitanai&quot; meaning filth. Heiji wonders who he is and Kogoro mentions that McCay is famous in America. He's a reporter who specializes in exposing famous athletes' scandals like taking illegal drugs, playing fixed games and having secret affairs. McCay later gets murdered, but Heiji and Conan solve the case.<br /> <br /> === Naniwa Swordsman Case (Manga: [[Volume 31#Naniwa Swordsman Case|314-316]], Anime: [[The Osaka Double Mystery - The Naniwa Swordsman and Toyotomi's Castle|263]]) ===<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 &quot;Kudo&quot;) 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. After the culprit is arrested, Heiji and Conan explore the town.<br /> <br /> === Tiger Scroll Case (Manga: [[Volume 31#Tiger Scroll Case|317-321]], Anime: [[The Osaka Double Mystery - The Naniwa Swordsman and Toyotomi's Castle|263]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Flying Neighbor Case (Manga: [[Volume 34#Flying Neighbor Case|341-343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277-278]]) ===<br /> 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 &quot;Jodie Saintemillion&quot;. 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 /> === 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 &quot;Kogoro&quot; replied with means to &quot;Lure One of them Out&quot;. 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 /> <br /> === Halloween Party Case (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 /> <br /> === Heiji vs. Kazuha (Manga: [[Volume 43#Heiji vs. Kazuha|441-444]], Anime: [[Which One's Deduction Show|381-382]]) ===<br /> Heiji wants to go watch Koushien, while Kazuha wants to go see the Takarazuha. In order to settle the dispute, Kogoro comes up with an idea. They split up into two groups, with Heiji and Conan up against Kazuha, Ran and Kogoro, to see who can solve the case of the murdered President first.<br /> <br /> === Koshien Bomber Case (Manga: [[Volume 43#Koshien Bomber Case|445-449]], Anime: [[Miracle at Koshien Ball Park! The Defiants Face the Dark Demon|383]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Magician Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 47#Magician Murder Case|487-490]], Anime: [[Conan and Heiji's Deduction Magic|406-408]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Yuki-Onna Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 50#Yuki-Onna Murder Case|518-522]], Anime: [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|490]]) ===<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 /> <br /> === Phantom Corpse Case (Manga: [[Volume 54#Phantom Corpse Case|559-561]], Anime: [[Three Days with Heiji Hattori|479]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Detective Koshien Case (Manga: [[Volume 54#Phantom Corpse Case|562-566]], Anime: [[Three Days with Heiji Hattori|479]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Missing Photo Case (Manga: [[Volume 56#Missing Photo Case|582]], Anime: [[Whereabouts of the Dark Photograph|484]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Billing Fraud Case (Manga: [[Volume 56#Billing Fraud Case|585]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|491]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Furinkazan Case (Manga: [[Volume 59#Furinkazan Case|613-618]], Anime: [[Furinkazan|516-517]]) ===<br /> <br /> === 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 /> <br /> === Highway Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 62#Highway Murder Case|652-654]], Anime: [[What She Truly Wants to Ask|523]]) ===<br /> <br /> This is a continuation of the plot from the 'Murderer Shinichi Kudo' episode. 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 /> <br /> === The Blue Spark of Hate (Manga: [[Volume 63#Sushi Bar Murder Case|655]], Anime: [[The Blue Spark of Hate|524]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Haunted Warehouse Case (Manga: [[Volume 66#Haunted Warehouse Case|692]], Anime: [[Battle of the Haunted Warehouse's Treasure|572]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Kazuha's Charm Case (Manga: [[Volume 66#Kazuha's Charm Case|693-695]], Anime: [[The Whereabouts of the Embarrassing Charm|573-574]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Demon Dog Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 70#Demon Dog Murder Case|734-740]], Anime: [[The Victim is Shinichi Kudo|610]][[Inubushi Castle, The Ablazed Demon Dog|-613]]) ===<br /> <br /> === East vs. West (Manga: [[Volume 74#East vs. West|778-780]], Anime: [[Conan vs. Heiji, Deduction Battle Between the Detectives of the East and West|651]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Eye for an Eye (Manga: [[Volume 74#Eye for an Eye|781-786]], Anime: [[The Design of Poison and Mirage|652-655]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Unexpected Murder (Manga: [[Volume 79#Unexpected Murder|831-833]], Anime: [[Everyone Saw|710-711]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Vampire's Mansion (Manga: [[Volume 79#Vampire's Mansion|834-840]], Anime: [[Heiji Hattori and the Vampire Mansion|712-715]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Drug Trading Case (Manga: [[Volume 83#Drug Trading Case|879-881]], Anime: [[Conan and Heiji's Code of Love|763-764]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Kamaitachi Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 86#Kamaitachi Murder Case|909-912]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Zombie Movie Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 88#Zombie Movie Murder Case|931-935]], Anime: [[A Cottage Surrounded by Zombies|830-832]])===<br /> Conan and company encounter Heiji and Kazuha at the spot that Yoko Okino filmed a movie.

When they arrive, they find that Heiji and Kazuha are also at the meeting. A flashback is shown of how Momiji convinced Heiji to solve the code. She hinted to Heiji that Kudo Shinichi will also try to solve it and if Heiji loses the challenge then he must do as Momiji wishes.After Heiji and Shinichi crack the code they arrive at the scene to find a man dead.

However, in the middle of Heiji speaking Kazuha runs off as Iori whispers something to her.<br /> <br /> === Shintoist Temple Case (Manga: [[Volume 100#Shintoist Temple Case|1067-1069]], Anime: TBD) ===<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 &quot;What are you doing to my Kazuha?!&quot;. 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.&lt;ref&gt;English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective&lt;/ref&gt; 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 &quot;misses Conan&quot;. 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 &quot;his friend's girl&quot; referring to Shinichi.&lt;ref&gt;Episode 916&lt;/ref&gt; Since it's practically identical with his relationship with Kazuha (Even though they aren't on the same level as Shinichi &amp; 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 &quot;tough love&quot; approach, though mostly for the sole purpose of using Heiji to lure out a suspect.&lt;ref&gt;Episode 263&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Shizuka Hattori ===<br /> [[Shizuka Hattori|Shizuka]] is Heiji's mother and he sometimes calls her an &quot;old lady&quot;.<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 &quot;future husband&quot; 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 &quot;pinky promise&quot; 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 /> == Character popularity ==<br /> * eBookJapan held a character popularity poll from April 12, 2011 to May 12, 2011 in which readers of Detective Conan (international included) could vote for their favorite character.

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.&lt;ref name=StabbedWallet&gt;Manga Volume 19: Files 185 (Stabbed Wallet Case)&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> In the news, Heiji has been publicly declared the &quot;Great Detective of the West&quot;, while [[Shinichi Kudo]] is the &quot;Great Detective of the East&quot;. 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.&lt;ref&gt;Manga Chapters 518-522: Yuki-Onna Murder Case&lt;/ref&gt;) 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.&lt;ref&gt;Manga Chapters 092-096: The Great Detective Of The West&lt;/ref&gt;<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.&lt;ref&gt;Manga Chapters 121: The Holmes Freak Case: The Revelation&lt;/ref&gt; Ever since that revelation, Heiji has been helping Conan in hiding his secret identity, though he constantly slips up by calling him &quot;Kudo&quot; 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]],&lt;ref&gt;{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=34|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 2-7|language=English}}&lt;/ref&gt; or when Heiji investigated [[Eisuke Hondou]] on his own and then told Conan his findings&lt;ref&gt;{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=56|chapter=Files 7|language=Japanese}}&lt;/ref&gt;, 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 &quot;Detective Koushien&quot; 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.&lt;ref&gt;Manga Volume 59, File 6, pg 6: Armored Warrior&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;Manga Volume 59, File 7, pg 11: Art of War&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref name=653p3&gt;Manga Volume 63, File 1, page 3: My Deduction&lt;/ref&gt;<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 &quot;Kudo&quot; 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.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=26|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 1-7|language=English}}&lt;/ref&gt; <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.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=19|chapter=Files 5-8|language=Japanese}}&lt;/ref&gt; 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.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=39|language=Japanese}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> During the &quot;Bond of Fire&quot; 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 &quot;Stabbed Wallet&quot; 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 &quot;Conan's&quot; 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.&lt;ref&gt;Chapter 278&lt;/ref&gt; His eyes are blue in the manga (like every character). Initially, his eyes appeared dark green, but are now blue&lt;ref&gt;Episode 710&lt;/ref&gt;. 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.&lt;ref&gt;[[Volume 26# School Play Case|Manga Chapter 256: ''Concealed Truth'']]&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;OVA 06: ''[[Follow the Vanished Diamond! Conan &amp; Heiji vs. Kid!]]''&lt;/ref&gt; 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 &quot;The Great Detective Of The West.&quot; 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 &quot;genius&quot; 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 &quot;Heiji and Kazuha in Grave Danger&quot; 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 &quot;Kudou Radar&quot; where he correctly guessed Conan's involvement in the case without actually seeing Conan.<br /> <br /> == Appellations ==<br /> &lt;tabs jsId=&quot;nicknames&quot;&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Protagonists&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Heiji}}<br /> {{appellations|Shinichi Kudo|Hattori|Kudo}}<br /> {{appellations|Conan Edogawa|Hattori (alone) &lt;br&gt; Heiji-niichan &lt;br&gt; Heiji-kun (joke) &lt;br&gt; Dark skinned man (once) &lt;br&gt; Heiji (rarely)|Kudo (alone/accidentally)&lt;ref name=&quot;m13&quot;&gt;Movie 13: ''[[The Raven Chaser]]''&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;br&gt; Conan-kun &lt;br&gt; Kid &lt;br&gt; Little brat &lt;br&gt; brat &lt;br&gt; Boy (''Bōzu'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Ran Mouri|Hattori-kun &lt;br&gt; Heiji-kun &lt;br&gt; Brother Heiji (''Heiji-niisan'')|Sister/Miss (''Nēchan'') &lt;br&gt; Ran-san &lt;br&gt; Ran-chan}}<br /> {{appellations|Kogoro Mouri|Osaka brat &lt;br&gt; Detective boy &lt;br&gt; Hattori Heiji|Uncle (''otchan''; casual) &lt;br&gt; Uncle Mouri (''Mouri-no-otchan'')}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Friends and relatives&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Heiji}}<br /> {{appellations|Kazuha Toyama|Heiji &lt;br&gt; Detective Freak|Kazuha &lt;br&gt; Kazuha-chan (polite)}}<br /> {{appellations|Heizo Hattori|Heiji|Dad (''oyaji'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Shizuka Hattori|Heiji|Mom (''okan'') &lt;br&gt; Old lady (''obahan'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Hiroshi Agasa|Heiji-kun &lt;br&gt; Hattori-kun|Professor (''Hakase'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Sonoko Suzuki|Hattori-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Goro Otaki|Hei-chan|Otaki-han}}<br /> {{appellations|Masumi Sera|Hattori-kun|Female detective (''onna-tantei'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Sakurako Yonehara|Hattori-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Yukiko Kudo|Heiji-kun|[[Shinichi Kudo|His]] mom (''aitsu no okan'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Saguru Hakuba|Hattori Heiji-kun|-|}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Detective Boys&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Heiji}}<br /> {{appellations|Ayumi Yoshida|Heiji-oniichan}}<br /> {{appellations|Genta Kojima|Heiji-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Heiji-san &lt;br&gt; Hattori-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Ai Haibara|Osaka friend|That little girl &lt;br/&gt; That big sister}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Law enforcement&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Heiji}}<br /> {{appellations|Juzo Megure|Hattori-kun &lt;br&gt; Heiji-kun|Inspector Megure (''Megure-keibu'') &lt;br&gt; Inspector-san (''Keibu-san'')&lt;ref name=&quot;m13&quot;/&gt;}}<br /> {{appellations|Wataru Takagi|Heiji-kun &lt;br&gt; Hattori-kun|Detective Takagi (''Takagi-keiji'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Miwako Sato|Hattori-kun}}<br /> {{appellations|Jodie Starling|[[Conan Edogawa|Cool Kid]]'s friend (''Cool Kid no tomodachi'') &lt;br&gt; Hattori-kun|Ms. Jodie}}<br /> {{appellations|Tsuyoshi Shikatsuno|Heiji-kun|Shikatsuno-san}}<br /> {{appellations|Kansuke Yamato|The detective kid from Osaka (''Osaka no tantei bōzu'')|That one-eyed police detective &lt;br&gt; Inspector Yamato (''Yamato-keibu'')}}<br /> {{appellations|Yui Uehara|The young, dark-skinned detective}}<br /> {{appellations|Misao Yamamura|Osaka-accented kid}}<br /> {{appellations|Fumimaro Ayanokoji|Hattori Heiji-kun&lt;ref name=&quot;m13&quot;/&gt;}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;tab title=&quot;Others&quot;&gt;<br /> {{appellations/head|Heiji}}<br /> {{appellations|Eisuke Hondou|-|Hondou Eisuke}}<br /> {{appellations|Momiji Ooka|Heiji-kun &lt;br&gt; My future husband (''uchi no mirai no danna-san'')|Momiji}}<br /> {{Appellations|Soshi Okita|Hattori-kun|Okita}}<br /> {{Appellations|Muga Iori|Hattori-sama|Iori-san}}<br /> {{Appellations|Kaitou Kid|-|Kaitou Kid}}<br /> |}<br /> &lt;/tab&gt;<br /> &lt;/tabs&gt;<br /> <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 &quot;[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]&quot; that Heiji, despite professing a preference for [[Wikipedia: Ellery Queen|Ellery Queen]], exercises the Holmesian axiom: &quot;When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.&quot; 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, &quot;perhaps we should have let her die.&quot; Conan replies that &quot;a detective who corners a murderer with logic and then lets them commit suicide is no better than a murderer.&quot;<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 &quot;K&quot;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 &quot;kitanai&quot; meaning filth. Heiji wonders who he is and Kogoro mentions that McCay is famous in America. He's a reporter who specializes in exposing famous athletes' scandals like taking illegal drugs, playing fixed games and having secret affairs. McCay later gets murdered, but Heiji and Conan solve the case.<br /> <br /> === Naniwa Swordsman Case (Manga: [[Volume 31#Naniwa Swordsman Case|314-316]], Anime: [[The Osaka Double Mystery - The Naniwa Swordsman and Toyotomi's Castle|263]]) ===<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 &quot;Kudo&quot;) 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. After the culprit is arrested, Heiji and Conan explore the town.<br /> <br /> === Tiger Scroll Case (Manga: [[Volume 31#Tiger Scroll Case|317-321]], Anime: [[The Osaka Double Mystery - The Naniwa Swordsman and Toyotomi's Castle|263]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Flying Neighbor Case (Manga: [[Volume 34#Flying Neighbor Case|341-343]], Anime: [[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective|277-278]]) ===<br /> 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 &quot;Jodie Saintemillion&quot;. 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 /> === 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 &quot;Kogoro&quot; replied with means to &quot;Lure One of them Out&quot;. 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 /> <br /> === Halloween Party Case (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 /> <br /> === Heiji vs. Kazuha (Manga: [[Volume 43#Heiji vs. Kazuha|441-444]], Anime: [[Which One's Deduction Show|381-382]]) ===<br /> Heiji wants to go watch Koushien, while Kazuha wants to go see the Takarazuha. In order to settle the dispute, Kogoro comes up with an idea. They split up into two groups, with Heiji and Conan up against Kazuha, Ran and Kogoro, to see who can solve the case of the murdered President first.<br /> <br /> === Koshien Bomber Case (Manga: [[Volume 43#Koshien Bomber Case|445-449]], Anime: [[Miracle at Koshien Ball Park! The Defiants Face the Dark Demon|383]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Magician Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 47#Magician Murder Case|487-490]], Anime: [[Conan and Heiji's Deduction Magic|406-408]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Yuki-Onna Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 50#Yuki-Onna Murder Case|518-522]], Anime: [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|490]]) ===<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 /> <br /> === Phantom Corpse Case (Manga: [[Volume 54#Phantom Corpse Case|559-561]], Anime: [[Three Days with Heiji Hattori|479]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Detective Koshien Case (Manga: [[Volume 54#Phantom Corpse Case|562-566]], Anime: [[Three Days with Heiji Hattori|479]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Missing Photo Case (Manga: [[Volume 56#Missing Photo Case|582]], Anime: [[Whereabouts of the Dark Photograph|484]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Billing Fraud Case (Manga: [[Volume 56#Billing Fraud Case|585]], Anime: [[Clash of Red and Black|491]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Furinkazan Case (Manga: [[Volume 59#Furinkazan Case|613-618]], Anime: [[Furinkazan|516-517]]) ===<br /> <br /> === 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 /> <br /> === Highway Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 62#Highway Murder Case|652-654]], Anime: [[What She Truly Wants to Ask|523]]) ===<br /> <br /> This is a continuation of the plot from the 'Murderer Shinichi Kudo' episode. 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 /> <br /> === The Blue Spark of Hate (Manga: [[Volume 63#Sushi Bar Murder Case|655]], Anime: [[The Blue Spark of Hate|524]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Haunted Warehouse Case (Manga: [[Volume 66#Haunted Warehouse Case|692]], Anime: [[Battle of the Haunted Warehouse's Treasure|572]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Kazuha's Charm Case (Manga: [[Volume 66#Kazuha's Charm Case|693-695]], Anime: [[The Whereabouts of the Embarrassing Charm|573-574]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Demon Dog Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 70#Demon Dog Murder Case|734-740]], Anime: [[The Victim is Shinichi Kudo|610]][[Inubushi Castle, The Ablazed Demon Dog|-613]]) ===<br /> <br /> === East vs. West (Manga: [[Volume 74#East vs. West|778-780]], Anime: [[Conan vs. Heiji, Deduction Battle Between the Detectives of the East and West|651]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Eye for an Eye (Manga: [[Volume 74#Eye for an Eye|781-786]], Anime: [[The Design of Poison and Mirage|652-655]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Unexpected Murder (Manga: [[Volume 79#Unexpected Murder|831-833]], Anime: [[Everyone Saw|710-711]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Vampire's Mansion (Manga: [[Volume 79#Vampire's Mansion|834-840]], Anime: [[Heiji Hattori and the Vampire Mansion|712-715]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Drug Trading Case (Manga: [[Volume 83#Drug Trading Case|879-881]], Anime: [[Conan and Heiji's Code of Love|763-764]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Kamaitachi Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 86#Kamaitachi Murder Case|909-912]]) ===<br /> <br /> === Zombie Movie Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 88#Zombie Movie Murder Case|931-935]], Anime: [[A Cottage Surrounded by Zombies|830-832]])===<br /> Conan and company encounter Heiji and Kazuha at the spot that Yoko Okino filmed a movie.

He also solves a murder case in Kyoto with other high school detectives like Shinichi and [[Masumi Sera]]. In the end of the case, he promises that he will confess to Kazuha in the same way that Shinichi does to Ran.<br /> <br /> === Kaitou Kid and the Fairy's Lip (Manga: [[Volume 96#Kaitou Kid and the Fairy's Lip|1018-1021]], Anime: [[Kid vs. Komei: The Targeted Lips|983-984]]) ===<br /> Heiji and Kazuha come to Tokyo to join with Conan, Ran and Kogoro to Suzuki Museum which Kaitou Kid is challenged to steal the Fairy's Lip.

When they arrive, they find that Heiji and Kazuha are also at the meeting. A flashback is shown of how Momiji convinced Heiji to solve the code. She hinted to Heiji that Kudo Shinichi will also try to solve it and if Heiji loses the challenge then he must do as Momiji wishes.After Heiji and Shinichi crack the code they arrive at the scene to find a man dead.

However, in the middle of Heiji speaking Kazuha runs off as Iori whispers something to her.<br /> <br /> === Shintoist Temple Case (Manga: [[Volume 100#Shintoist Temple Case|1067-1069]], Anime: TBD) ===<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 &quot;What are you doing to my Kazuha?!&quot;. 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.&lt;ref&gt;English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective&lt;/ref&gt; 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 &quot;misses Conan&quot;. 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 &quot;his friend's girl&quot; referring to Shinichi.&lt;ref&gt;Episode 916&lt;/ref&gt; Since it's practically identical with his relationship with Kazuha (Even though they aren't on the same level as Shinichi &amp; 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 &quot;tough love&quot; approach, though mostly for the sole purpose of using Heiji to lure out a suspect.&lt;ref&gt;Episode 263&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Shizuka Hattori ===<br /> [[Shizuka Hattori|Shizuka]] is Heiji's mother and he sometimes calls her an &quot;old lady&quot;.<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 &quot;future husband&quot; 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 &quot;pinky promise&quot; 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 /> == Character popularity ==<br /> * eBookJapan held a character popularity poll from April 12, 2011 to May 12, 2011 in which readers of Detective Conan (international included) could vote for their favorite character.
