The {{nihongo|'''Black Organization'''|黒の組織|kuro no soshiki}} serves as the main antagonist in the series. It is a secret syndicate that commits a number of crimes for various reasons which range from blackmail to robberies to assassinations. The members of the organization are given code names based on alcoholic beverages. The [[The Boss of the Black Organization|leader of the Black Organization]] is unseen and unheard of and is known only through text messages. Their boss's phone number follows the tune of the children song {{nihongo| '''[[Nanatsu no Ko]]'''|七つの子 |lit. Seven children}}; the number is #969#6261. The true name of the Black Organization is unknown. The first members to appear were [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]], who were responsible for [[Shinichi Kudo]]'s transformation in the first place.

== Members ==
=== Current ===
* '''[[The Boss of the Black Organization|The boss]]''': The leader of the Black Organization. The boss's identity, gender, age, and location are all unknown. He/She is respectfully referred to as "that person" (ano kata) by lower ranked members of the Black Organization.
* '''[[Rum]]''': A major player in the Organization's hierarchy that he is the second in charge. His physical description varies: an elderly man, a feminine man, and a strongly-built man; but all sources agree that he has an artificial eye. So far, Conan has suspected [[Kansuke Yamato]], Nagano Police Inspector, and [[Hyoue Kuroda]], Nagano Police First Division Chief, because they match some of these descriptions.
* '''[[Gin]]''': A high ranking Black Organization executive official who seems to specialize in coordinating deals and assassinations. He is one of the most frequently reoccurring Black Organization characters. He is shown to be intelligent and very acute, and his long silver hair and sweeping trench coat give him a distinctive appearance. He forced the drug [[APTX 4869]] on Shinichi, and his favorite car is the Porsche 356A.
* '''[[Vodka]]''': Gin's secretary<ref name=CD237>Conan Drill page 237. Vodka's position is 全体監視役秘書係 which roughly translates to General Oversight division secretary</ref> and assistant, he is another frequently reoccurring Black Organization character. He wears a hat and sunglasses at all times. He is less intelligent compared to his boss Gin whom he often is seen working with.
* '''[[Vermouth]]''' (Sharon Vineyard/Chris Vineyard): A mysterious actress from America with exceptional disguise and voice changing abilities that allow her to pose as anyone. Like Gin, she is a Black Organization executive member.<ref>Conan Drill</ref> She is hated by a number of the members of the Black Organization, but due to the fact that she is their boss' favorite, she is untouchable and they are unable to do anything to her. It is unknown where her loyalty lies, as she often protects Conan and calls him a "silver bullet", implying that she believes him to be capable of bringing down the Black Organization. She also does not seem to age.
* '''[[Chianti]]''': A professional sniper who has been seen to take orders from Gin. She has a fiery and impatient personality. She loathes Vermouth.
* '''[[Korn]]''': A professional sniper who has been seen to take orders from Gin. His speech is characterized by short phrases with many pauses.

=== Undercover ===
* '''[[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]]''': Operates under alias of Rena Mizunashi, a TV reporter. Her true name is Hidemi Hondou. Like her deceased father, she is actually a member of the [[CIA]] who infiltrated the Black Organization. Her brother, [[Eisuke Hondou]], was not aware of this since Hidemi pretended not to know him after she went undercover.
* '''[[Tooru Amuro|Bourbon]]''': A newly established organization member who has great deduction and intelligence gathering skills. His public name is Tooru Amuro. Kir said he has recently been dispatched to search for [[Ai Haibara|Sherry]]. Gin has said that Bourbon hates [[Shuichi Akai]] much more than he does and that he is a man who follows his own rules, much like Vermouth.

=== Deceased ===
* '''[[Tequila]]''': An agent with the same rank as Vodka who seemed to primarily deal with programmers. He was a giant man who spoke with an Osakan accent. He was unintentionally killed in explosion in Episode 54 and Manga Volume 12.
* '''[[Pisco]]''': An elderly executive agent who was also the chairman of a car company. He was killed by Gin in Episode 178 after being caught on camera performing an assassination. He discovered Haibara was Sherry, but was unable to inform anyone before he was killed by Gin.
* '''[[Calvados]]''': A sniper infatuated with Vermouth who shot himself after being crippled by [[Shuichi Akai]] in Episode 345.
* '''[[Akemi Miyano]]''': Shiho Miyano's older sister and Shuichi Akai's girlfriend. She was a low ranking member of the organization and completed a billion yen robbery as part of an agreement to release herself and her sister from the organization. The organization reneged on the deal and she was killed by Gin in Episode 128 and in Manga Volume 2.
* '''[[Atsushi Miyano]]''': Haibara's father and Elena's husband. He headed the APTX 4869 project before Shiho Miyano took over. Both he and Elena died for some reason which Pisco called an accident while Shiho was young.
* '''[[Elena Miyano]]''': Haibara's mother and Atsushi's wife. She was of British origin and was known within the organization as "Hell's Angel". She worked the APTX 4869 project before Shiho Miyano took over. Both she and Atsushi died for some reason which Pisco called an accident while Shiho was young. She left some mysterious tapes for Shiho.
* '''[[Rikumichi Kusuda]]''': An agent sent to infiltrate Haido Central Hospital to discover the whereabouts of Kir. He killed himself when Akai was hot on his trail. (Episode 498)
* '''[[Ethan Hondou]]''': A CIA agent who infiltrated the Black Organization. He committed suicide to protect his daughter [[Hidemi Hondou]] from being uncovered as a CIA agent.
* '''[[Scotch]]''': An undercover operative who was killed before the Black Organization manages to reveal his true identity.
* '''[[Yoshiaki Hara]]''': A movie only agent killed by Gin in ''[[Countdown to Heaven|Movie 5]]''
* '''[[Irish]]''': A movie only agent killed by Chianti in ''[[The Raven Chaser]]''.
* '''[[Masaaki Okakura]]''': A movie only agent killed by a serial killer in [[The Raven Chaser|Movie 13]].
* '''[[Arrack]]''': A non-[[canon]] [[Detective Conan Special|special manga]] agent who committed suicide from Conan Special: Volume 26.
* '''[[Blackbeard]]'''. A non-[[canon]] [[Detective Conan Special|special manga]] scientist who committed suicide from Conan Special: Volume 35.

=== Former ===
* '''[[Shiho Miyano|Sherry]]''' (Ai Haibara/Shiho Miyano): A high ranking biochemist who worked on [[APTX 4869]]. She boycotted her work after her sister was killed and was awaiting execution. She escaped when she took an APTX 4869 she had smuggled in with her and shrunk to her 6~7 year old body. She has been living with Professor Agasa and has been working on an antidote to the APTX 4869.
* '''[[Shuichi Akai|Rye]]''': The codename of Shuichi Akai, he was an undercover FBI agent who infiltrated the Black Organization. His allegiance was discovered and he was rejected by the organization. His prowess led the organization to view him as the FBI's trump card.
* '''[[Ki'ichiro Numabuchi]]''': A serial killer whom was slated to be the original test subject for the APTX drug before he escaped. Later escaped and is now in custody for murders he has committed, mostly in fear of the Black Organization sending agents after him.
* '''[[Generic]]''': a non-[[canon]] [[Detective Conan Special|special manga]] agent who is an old friend of Sherry who considers her as his sister. He used the Apoptoxin medicine to shrink his own body and entered the school where Haibara is. He lost his memory due to his own memory removal gas in Conan Special: Volume 26.

== Organization structure and divisions ==
There are many divisions in the Black Organization which are roughly grouped into three categories: Internal Division (内部活動部隊), External Division (外部活動部隊), and General Oversight (全体監視役). The external division is composed of agents who primarily deal with people outside the Organization. The known internal division agents are focused on in-house research and development. General oversight takes a managerial and coordinating role. The divisions are unrelated to relative ranking among members.<ref name=CD237>Conan Drill page 237</ref> (e.g Vermouth is higher ranking than Vodka.)

'''*''' ''These characters are not considered to be [[canon]].'' 

==Rank==

Agents who excel at their work and make their way up the ranks are given alcohol codenames by the boss. Even within codenamed agents there are further rank divisions.<ref>Official material accompanying the manga has given contrary information about the existence of ranks within the codenamed members. Some guidebooks (Conan Drill, Chapter 500 special) describe clear rank divisions. Yet, in the 865 Shounen Sunday Special Booklet, on pg9 under Korn, Gosho was listed as saying, "Fundamentally all members of the organisation with code names are supposed to be at the same level, so Korn's supposed to be at the same rank as Gin. It just happened this time that when they chanced to form a team Gin came out as the most leader-like of all them." Evidence from the manga itself suggests that certain members have privileges and freedom that others are not allowed to have.</ref> One advantage that comes with being higher ranked is access to more informational files; lower rank agents have to request to see certain materials from higher ranking agents.<ref name=824p16>Manga Volume 78, File 7 (824), Page 16: "Mystery Train: Final Destination"</ref>

===Executive agents===
The "Executive"<ref>Manga [[Volume 58]], File 2 (599), pg 9: "Akai's past". "Executive" is a term used by the FBI to describe the agents who are high ranking like Gin and is not necessarily the term the Organization itself uses to refer to that top level.</ref> agents are the highest ranked codenamed agents within the Black Organization under the boss. They can command many other codenamed agents and have access to more information than lower ranked agents. Even among them, killing another executive agent without express orders from the boss would result in a loss of standing.<ref>As Pisco explains to Gin in [[Volume 24]], file 11, page 14</ref>
*[[Gin]]
*[[Vermouth]]: Also the boss' favorite
*[[Rum]]: Second in command<ref>File 906 pg 3</ref>
*[[Pisco]]<ref name=CD239>[[:File:ConanDrill239.jpg|Conan Drill page 239]]</ref>

===Codenamed agents===
Agents who have excelled beyond the rank and file member enough earn recognition and an alcohol codename.

'''Work(ed) under Gin'''
*[[Vodka]]: Tequila and Vodka are approximately the same rank<ref name=CD239>Conan Drill page 239</ref>

== Modus operandi==
The Black Organization commits crimes such as illegal deals<ref>Manga [[Volume 4]], Files 4-6: Shinkansen Bomb Case</ref>, blackmail<ref>Manga [[Volume 1]], File 1: "The Heisei Holmes"</ref>, robberies<ref>Manga [[Volume 2]], Files 4-7: "Masami Hirota Case"</ref>, and contract assassinations<ref>Manga [[Volume 37]], File 5</ref> to raise money for research.<ref>The Miyano parents went to work for the Black Organization because they [[Volume_41#Bathroom_Murder_Case|received funding after being unable to find a sponsor]] that would pay for them to research their theories. Tequila bribed [[Black_Organization#Hideaki Nakajima|Hideaki Nakajima]] with a large amount of money for the world's best programmers. [[Black_Organization#Suguru Itakura|Suguru Itakura]] was offered a large sum of money to complete his program</ref> The organization operates like a hybrid of a business and a mafia group. The Black Organization recruits outside talent and cultivates clients and sponsors by sending high ranking members like Gin to business meetings, but they also use mafia-like tactics to intimidate desirable civilians into making deals with them.<ref>e.g. Suguru Itakura</ref> Besides their financially motivated crimes, the organization engages in other stereotypical criminal activities like bribery, spying, and eliminating threats or former partners who are deemed useless or a risk.

=== Customs ===
[[Image:Generic BOs.png|thumb|225px|right|Agents dress in black]]
The organization is highly secretive, and tries to eliminate anyone who has knowledge of their existence and threatens to expose their inner workings, including members who have become a liability, such as [[Akemi Miyano]]. They will dispose of even senior members like [[Pisco]] without hesitation to protect their secrets. Remaining unknown seems to be a higher priority than even research as Ai Haibara thought Conan would be killed before he could be “studied”.<ref>Manga Volume 18, File 9, pg 7: "The girl made of lies" - "If I reported your condition to the organization, it's very likely you would have been terminated before I could do something useful." Haibara, explaining that Kudo would have been killed by the Black Organization anyway even though he was an "interesting specimen."</ref> The organization often destroys evidence via fire or explosion<ref>List of examples: the shinkansen bomb case, destruction of the Daiko Building's cocktail bar where meetings took place, destruction of the pharmaceutical company building Shiho worked at, Vermouth's assassination of Jodie's father and subsequent burning down of the house</ref> and Haibara warns that they will not hesitate to kill family and friends of a target to protect the secret of their existence.

The organization has several practices that resemble those of stereotypical secret societies.<ref>[[Conan Drill]], Black Organization Section, pgs 250-252. Among the sources of inspiration for the Black Org, the [[Wikipedia:Freemasons|Freemasons]] (フリーメイソン), the [[Wikipedia:KKK|KKK]], and others that were not translated are mentioned for their secret-society-like aspects.</ref> The Black Organization members all tend to wear black outfits, which Akemi says is intentional and supposed to resemble crows. For an as of yet unrevealed reason, nearly all the Black Organization's members (with the exception of the [[The Boss of the Black Organization|boss]]) use code names based on alcoholic drinks: hard liquors for men and wine or wine-based cocktails for women. Also it would appear the organization is also fond using detective fiction and classic literature in their project names and passwords. Examples include the APTX 4869 pun on Sherlock Holmes, the computer password Shelling Ford- a prototype name for Sherlock Holmes, a computer virus called Night Baron named after a character from mystery writer [[Yusaku Kudo]]’s novels, and mission codenames relating to the novel [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strange_Case_of_Dr_Jekyll_and_Mr_Hyde ''Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde''].

=== Criminal techniques ===
The Black Organization conducts its crimes in ways that are difficult to trace back to them. Handguns and sniping, fire and bombs, and poisons seem to be their preferred techniques. Sometimes the organization attempts to disguise their murders as accidents or suicides. To this end, [[APTX 4869]] was deployed as a poison because it is forensically difficult to detect. If they are unable to disguise a murder as something else, they will usually attempt to destroy any evidence using fire or explosives to make it difficult to investigate. Sometimes they will time their crimes so the blame will fall on another party instead, confusing the investigation. If a meeting place or asset of theirs is compromised, the Black Organization typically thoroughly destroys it before it can be investigated properly.

=== Locations and hideouts ===
The Black Organization seems to have hideouts,<ref name=383p11>Manga [[Volume 38]], File 1 (383), pg 11: "The New Weapon!"</ref> but none of them have been revealed so far. In line with their secretive existence, the Black Organization prefers to meet in places that are isolated or where they can slip away easily. Several operatives occupy public positions like famous actress (Vermouth), television announcer (Kir), or company chairman (Pisco) which gives the Black Organization connections to circles of the rich and famous and access to otherwise unavailable locations. So far, the Black Organization have met clients at a dim restaurant, a Shinkansen's dining car, a crowded wake, a train station under construction, and in an isolated area of an amusement park. The Black Organization often conducts business and meetings at the shipping yard.<ref>Akemi's murder, Showdown with Vermouth, planning for the Domon assassination?, Kir's call to Akai.</ref> Not very many member's abodes have been shown, but they range in extravagance from Kir's relatively plain apartment to Vermouth's lavish penthouse in a tall building.

=== Personnel characteristics ===
Individually, the organization's higher ranking members are typically intelligent and often multitalented. So far, at least all senior members are shown to carry guns and wear body armor under their clothing when out. Many agents, even those outside the assassination divisions, are skilled at using firearms. Disguise is a particularly common skill. Both [[Gin]] and [[Vermouth]] were shown to be resistant to Conan's tranquilizer needle<ref>Manga Chapter 242: The White World</ref> and knockout gas<ref>Manga Chapter 434: Rotten Apple</ref>and subsequently both readily shot themselves in order to continue to stay awake. This may show that they have trained themselves to resist knockout effects to prevent capture and cope with pain.


==History==
The Black Organization’s main research project, of which [[APTX 4869]] is a part, has been around for at least half a century.<ref>Haibara thinks thinking to herself… "Kudo-kun? You would probably never even dream that you are already part of a project the Black Organization has been working on already for half a century." (file 189, but see the ep 130/131 for a better translation) APTX 4869 is the only known connection between the org and Shinichi so Haibara must be referring to the APTX project.</ref><ref>Manga Volume 19, File 9</ref> The Black Organization has historical ties to America before the current storyline. Evidence for this is the involvement of the FBI and CIA in counter operations. Also, Jodie mentions that her father in the FBI was investigating Vermouth as Sharon Vineyard 20 years ago.<ref>Chapter 433</ref>


==Goal and research==
As of now, the Black Organization's main purpose and goal still remain unknown. What is known is that they are recruiting talent in biochemistry and computer science and funding research using the proceeds from their crime. Currently, the only sources of information Conan can rely on to learn the true intentions behind the Black Organization are former agent [[Sherry]], the CIA's undercover member Kir, and Black Organization related cases.

=== APTX 4869 and Biochemistry ===
[[File:Bloody_Disk_Manga.png|thumb|100px|right|[[The Desperate Revival|The disk of APTX 4869 data that Haibara lied about losing.]]]]
:''See also: [[APTX 4869]]''
The Black Organization has a long history of biochemistry research. Thirty years before Conan was shrunk, they recruited [[Atsushi Miyano]] and [[Elena Miyano]] to work on research for them. Eventually, the two scientists developed a project they called [[APTX 4869#Silver_Bullet|Silver Bullet]]. Not long after the two died in what some members of the Organization called an accident and their daughter, [[Shiho Miyano]], took over research on the [[APTX 4869]] project. Although APTX 4869 was being developed for another, still secret, purpose, the Organization is using the incomplete prototype as an untraceable, lethal poison.

The Organization's project data for APTX 4869 contains important secrets. [[The Girl from the Black Organization and the University Professor Murder Case|One disk Haibara and Conan tried to retrieve]] had real names, addresses, and codenames of agents, and the name of the person/people who invested money for the research.<ref>Manga [[Volume 19]], File 1, pg 16: "Why..."</ref> Haibara made a copy of some of the APTX 4869 data when [[Reunion with the Black Organization|she was locked in a room with Pisco's computer]], but then lied to Conan about losing it.<ref>In [[The Desperate Revival|Episode 188]] (File 251), Haibara has the bloody disk of copied APTX 4869 data from [[Reunion with the Black Organization]]. She had lied to Conan about losing it.</ref>

=== Computer research and viruses ===
Another part of the Organization's research requires the skills of world class programmers. It is known the Black Organization has involvement with computer viruses (Night Baron); however, the main purpose of their computer science research may be something other than virii and related to their biochemistry research. [[List_of_Black_Organization_related_characters#Hideaki_Nakajima|Hideaki Nakajima]] made an exchange with Tequila in the [[Game Company Murder Case]], giving Tequila a list of some of the world's most highly skilled programmers in exchange for a large amount of money. Vermouth and Tequila also blackmailed a famous CG graphic designer/games system engineer named [[Suguru Itakura]] to complete a particular “system software” Itakura had stopped developing because of bad eyesight. Whatever it is, it prompted the coerced programmer Suguru Itakura to say that he didn’t want to complete his program “for the sake of humanity”.<ref> Manga chapter 380, pg 12</ref>

[[File:Mermaid_case_guestbook_scene_manga.PNG|thumb|right|Shiho Miyano's name is in a guestbook logging past contestants for the immortality arrows]]
One possibility is that the Black Organization's research, especially [[APTX 4869]] development, is trying to create a therapy which will cause immortality, stall or reverse the effects of aging, or extend a human's lifespan.

Shiho Miyano said that, in developing APTX 4869, she didn't intend to create a poison,<ref>Manga Volume 18, File 9, page 9</ref> which suggests that APTX 4869 was originally developed with a different goal in mind. It probably was just a useful side effect that the current prototype kills while leaving no trace in the victim’s body, and was thus employed as a poison - a usage which Haibara detests.<ref>Manga Volume 18, File 9, pg 9</ref> Additionally, APTX 4869 is nicknamed the "''incomplete'' detective" by the Black Organization, which means its true purpose has not yet been achieved.

The de-aging effect that occurred when Shinichi and Haibara took APTX 4869 probably indicates the main intent of the drug's development. After [[Pisco]] saw Haibara shrink back to her child form, he commented that he was impressed she had developed the drug to that point, implying that de-aging is in the right direction.<ref>Manga Volume 24, File 11, pg 9</ref> Supporting this is Haibara’s line, "Kudo-kun? You would probably never even dream that you are already part of a project the Black Organization has been working on already for half a century."<ref>Manga Volume 19, File 9: Chapter 191: Episode 130-131</ref> APTX 4869 is the only known intersection between Shinichi and the Black Organization; meaning that Shinichi's de-aging made him relevant to the Black Organization's project.

According to Haibara’s description about APTX 4869<ref>Manga Volume 24, File 10</ref>, the drug activates [[wikipedia:telomerase|telomerase]], an enzyme which can increase the number of times a cell can divide, and therefore affect a cell's lifespan and “reproductive potential”. The goal of this might be to revert all non-neural cells to a "youthful", high reproductive potential state.

Besides APTX 4869, [[Vermouth#Non-aging|Vermouth's unnatural youth]] is another indicator that the Black Organization may be involved in research towards extending lifespan, halting aging, or rejuvenating the body. In addition, Shiho Miyano’s name was on the raffle list for the immortality arrows in the mermaid case in Fukui.<ref>Chapters 279-283</ref>

====Raising the dead====
There is a possibility that the Black Organization may be trying to develop a method to revive the dead. Suguru Itakura's diary contained a quote by one of the Black Organization's agents, most likely Vermouth: "We can be both God and Devil since we are trying to raise the dead against the stream of time" <ref name=380p13/> The original purpose of APTX 4869 might be to raise the dead. [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]] and Conan later wondered if the line meant that the Black Organization was trying to create zombies.<ref name=380p16>Manga Volume 37, File 8, pg 16: "White Snow, Black Shadow"</ref> Once when Conan asked Haibara directly what APTX 4869 was meant to do she replied, "It's a nostrum to raise the dead. I wonder if that answer is satisfactory?"<ref name=384p8>Manga Volume 32, File 8, page 8: "The Old Picture"</ref> It may be her comment was a bluff intended to provoke Conan into revealing what he had been up to rather than a serious statement of the purpose of the drug.

== Known Black Organization targets and contacts ==
{{main|List of Black Organization related characters}}
The Black Organization has involved many non-members in its plots, as collaborators or as targets. Additionally, many characters are friends or acquaintances with members of the Black Organization, often without realizing it. For a full list of major and minor characters who have been involved with the Black Organization, please see the '''[[List of Black Organization related characters|list of Black Organization related characters]]'''.

{{main|Black Organization timeline}}

== Manga to anime differences ==
{{main|List of differences between the manga and anime}}
The first season of Detective Conan rarely featured the Black Organization because the anime writers wanted to downplay their presence.<ref>[http://www.tv.com/case-closed/mystery-mastermind/episode/336019/trivia.html#notes Episode trivia on TV.com]</ref> Two of the episodes at least, were altered heavily in light of this:

*'''Episode 5, [[The Shinkansen's Bomb Case]]:''' The episode replaces the two men who shrunk Conan with lookalikes unrelated to the Black Organization. In the manga version of this case, Conan runs into the real pair and learns their code names (Gin/Vodka in the Japanese Version, Melkior and Kaspar in the English Version). Their replacement creates a continuity error in '''Episode 54, [[Game Company Murder Case]]'''. Conan recognizes their code names when Tequila speaks to them, yet Conan never learned their code names in the anime version of events.

*'''Episode 13, [[The Strange Person Hunt Murder Case]]:''' At the end of the episode, Masami Hirota meets with the criminal in charge the recent murders. She survives a gunshot wound thanks to Conan. In the manga version, which is in [[Volume 2]], the masterminds are Gin and Vodka. Masami is actually [[Akemi Miyano]], and stole the money to buy her sister out of the organization. Upon refusal to give the money's location to Gin, he shoots her. Conan arrives shortly after, and tries to help Akemi. He gives her his real name, and before dying she tells Conan the location of the money and that the organization who killed her wears black like crows. The anime had to do a similar story in Episode 128, '''[[The Black Organization: One Billion Yen Robbery Case]]''', in order to repair the storyline because Akemi's death is what prompted [[Shiho Miyano]] to defect from the Organization.

==Relation to the Organization from Magic Kaito==
:''See also: [[Magic Kaito Organization]]''
It is questionable if the Detective Conan's Black Organization and [[Magic Kaito]]'s [[Magic_Kaito_Organization|unnamed organization]] are the same organization. The member of the magic Kaito organization that claimed responsibility for killing [[Toichi]] eight years ago is referred to as "[[Snake]]"<ref>{{cite book |last=Aoyama |first=Gosho |title=Magic Kaito |volume=3 |publisher=Shogakukan |date=1994-10-15 |isbn=4-09-122093-5 |chapter=Blue Birthday |language=Japanese |location=Tokyo |page=140 }}</ref>, a nickname that doesn't fit in with the codenames of the Black Organization, suggesting they are two separate groups. This though may not be the case if Snake refers to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snake_wine Snake Wine], but because [[Kaitou Kid]]'s origins have yet to be reexplained within the Detective Conan story, this is only speculation.

Additionally the members of the Magic Kaito Organization are looking for a magical gem called [[Pandora]]. The magical nature of Magic Kaito and its organization's search does not mesh with the non-magical setting of Detective Conan.

==Trivia==
*In the English dub, "Case Closed", [[Gin]] is renamed "Melkior" and [[Vodka]] is renamed "Kaspar". In the English manga, these are explained as specific brands of the relevant drinks.

*Members seem to get along fairly well most of the time. [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] have a particularly close rapport. [[Gin]] is annoyed by [[Vermouth]]'s teasing, but when on business they seem to get along alright. [[Chianti]] holds a hateful grudge against [[Vermouth]] because she believes [[Vermouth]] led [[Calvados]] to his death, indicating that [[Chianti]] has some sort of relationship with the deceased agent. [[Korn]] appears to be anti-social.

*[[Vermouth]] is the only living member of the organization who learned that Ai Haibara is Shiho Miyano and Conan Edogawa is [[Shinichi Kudo]]. Pisco also knew Haibara's identity, and unlike Vermouth, would've revealed it to [[Gin]] if he hadn't been murdered by him first. Conan told [[Akemi Miyano]] his real name as she died.

*According to the Black Organization only the "Silver Bullet" can defeat/kill them, Vermouth believes that Conan/Shinichi is their "Silver Bullet". However everyone else thinks Akai is their greatest threat.

*So far, the youngest member known to still be in the Black Organization is [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] at age 27. [[Shiho Miyano|Sherry]] was 18 when she defected, and her sister, Akemi Miyano, was in her mid twenties when she was killed by Gin.

*[[The Girl from the Black Organization and the University Professor Murder Case|Episode 129]] indicates that the organization has numerous members. Later [[Clash of Red and Black|episode 502]] shows that these members can include old members in their 70's or 80's. Episode 557 also shows that the organization has access to a large quantity of weapons and sends a large amount of its members depending on the mission.

*Episodes 462-465 marks the first 4-part episode dealing with the Black Organization without it being aired as a special (However, international airings outside Japan have separated each 2 hour special dealing with the Black Organization into six separate parts).

*Episodes 491-504 marks the longest Black Organization arc to ever air, consisting of more than ten parts.

*During the course of the series, almost every member had some kind of individual contact with Conan/Shinichi; [[Gin]] in the episode 1, manga chapter 33 on the bullet train, and episode 178 when Conan shoots him with his needle while hiding, [[Vodka]] in manga chapter 33 on the bullet train and during the course of episodes 309-311, [[Vermouth]] in episode 345 and while she was disguised as Araide, [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] in episode 425, [[Akemi Miyano]] in manga chapters 13-16/episode 128, [[Pisco]] in episode 178, [[Tequila]] in episode 54, [[Ki'ichiro Numabuchi]] in episode 118 and briefly in 290, and [[Rikumichi Kusuda]] in episodes 496-497.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The murder was committed by '''Ensaku Toyoshima'''. The motive for the deed was the death of his younger sister, her husband, and their three-year-old son in a car accident. They had one day rented the special suite Nagami Oiso liked so much for a night in order to enjoy the special view it offered, until Nagami selfishly laid claim to the suite for herself, forcing the family to go to another hotel. But on their way there, they became victims of a fatal hit-and-run accident... with Nagami Oiso as the perpetrator, who drove the car which hit theirs. In order to avoid prosecution, she called Toyoshima and asked him for a false alibi, thereby inadvertently revealing herself as the culprit.

Toyoshima committed the murder while he was attending to Nagami alone, ripping off the mouthpiece of her oxygen tank and drowning her in the pool. In order to provide himself with an alibi, he had prepared the aquarium by fixing it to the bottom of the pool with a fishing line, employing a natural light refraction trick to conceal the body in the middle of the pool. When Nagami's disappearance was noted and everybody started searching for her, he secretly cut the line, thereby releasing the aquarium and revealing the body. Then, while retrieving the scuba tank, he secretly dragged the aquarium away from the pool's center with his foot, he dropped the tank onto it and thereby smashed it to pieces in order to conceal its original shape. The evicence for this is found on the fishing line, which Toyoshima had wound up in a coil, thereby leaving his fingerprints on it.

=== Situation ===
==== Departure ====
[[Vermouth]] is on the phone with [[Gin]]. Vermouth passes on the information that [[Bourbon]] came across, which that [[Sherry]] was hiding in Gunma and was going to travel on the Bell Tree Express, a train own by Suzuki family which hosts a special mystery onboard. Vermouth recalls her encounter with [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and her promise to let Sherry go. She justifies the upcoming attack on Sherry as Bourbon's job and asks Gin not to interfere before the train reaches its destination.

At the Bell Tree Express, Conan, [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]], [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]], and the Detective Boys including [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] prepare to board the train. Haibara still has a cold and has her cold mask on to hide her identity on the platform. The Detective Boys learn that the train usually runs only once a year, but this year will be different because [[Jirokichi Suzuki]] plans to run it a month later in another attempt to lure out [[Kaitou Kid]]. Sonoko also plans to place her love letter to Kid in the train car so he can receive it. Suddenly [[Masumi Sera]] shows up, and she says she is interested in the deduction quiz that will take place in the train. Haibara notices her and cover herself with her jacket's hood.

Next, the group witnesses the arrival of more passengers. Satoru Andou of 8C is the first to arrive, and he is traveling with a client's picture with a solid gold frame. Taisaku Noto (8A) and Mari Idenami (8E) show their familiarity with the conductor. Natsue Komino (8D), an old lady in a wheelchair, is accompanied by her maid Hiruka Sumitomo. And lastly, the angry Etsuto Murobashi appears (7B), and he accosts the conductor to demand his usual room in car 8. [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] (8B) introduces himself to the group after adjusting his mustache into the style of Hercule Poirot, explaining to him that his daughter, Ran, is a friend of the owner of the train, so he got a room on the luxury car. The passengers show shock reaction upon hearing his name.

In Agasa's room, 6B, Conan and the Detective Boys are chatting. Someone knocks on their door. They find a mystery card lying there, telling them they have received the role of detective that will investigate the murder which will occur in room 7B. The group (excluding Agasa) goes to 7B and witnesses a supposed murder incident. A masked man with hood shoots Etsuto Murobashi. They run after the murderer, but he gets away.

Later, they run into a train conductor, and learn that the quiz is suppose to happen an hour later. Conan, with a shocked expression, runs back to 7B only to found out that Ran, Sonoko, and Sera are there instead, and to complicate thing further, Ran's group tell them they're in 8B. It seems that after the murder happened, Car 7 disappear into thin air.

Meanwhile, Haibara, who's slightly behind Conan group, follows them half-heartly, show a strong reaction when Scar Akai leaves one of the rooms. But Scar Akai, who is dressed in a formal outfit, does not notice her and walks in the opposite direction. Haibara catches a glimpse of him.

Conan tries to convince the train conductor that something was wrong with the mystery murder that took place to no avail, nevertheless, they learn more about the nature of the train. Passengers can ring a bell which turns on a light above their door to summon the carriage attendant who sits in the hall. Additionally, each car has no indication of its number inside, only from outside can one tell the car number, a feature added by Jirokichi Suzuki to make the train more mysterious. Meanwhile, Haibara recalls her encounter with Scar Akai a moment ago. She thinks he has the "feeling" of Dai Moroboshi but doesn't understand why he has a burn mark.
Conan then recalls seeing Sera holding a card when they first ran into Ran's cabin. They go back to 7B and confront the girls with the correct conclusion: everything happened in 7B all along and the girls had lied that the room was 8B. Ran's party received the role of accomplices (assigned by the card that Sera held) They temporarily switched their room from 8B to 7B with Murobashi (who will wait in Ran's room, 8B) while the incident happened as part of the trick. As the Detective Boys followed Conan into the room, Sera notices that Haibara is with the group, and she says she wants to have a word with Haibara as well. Haibara starts to look scared, but the conversation is cut short because Scar Akai had been lurking outside the door. Sera demands to know who was there, but Scar Akai hides himself before Sera sees him.
After the trick is revealed, they return to Ran's original room, 8B, to inform Murobashi that their trick got exposed. They try to open the door, but it is chained shut and Murobashi is "sleeping" on the couch. Just then, Sera and Conan notice the gunpowder smell and break the chain link to open the door. They found Etsuto Murobashi was killed in a sealed room!

==== Tunnel ====
Conan and Sera explain the reason why Murobashi's case could not be a suicide. Conan then receives a message from an unknown sender and tells the Detective Boys to go back to their room with Ran, and shouts angrily when they don't comply. Haibara thinks about the "ominous feeling" inside her, as well as Conan's tense behavior, as she clinging to Ran and wonders what is going on. Immediately, Scar Akai walks past and glares at Haibara which frightens her. Tooru Amuro also appears right behind Scar Akai, and he explains to Ran how he got a train ticket from online bidding. This happens in the hallway, and the door nearest to the conversation is cracked open so that Subaru Okiya can watch them silently. Okiya is also accompanied by a woman resembling Vermouth with a hat pulled low over her face, who is seemingly busy with her cellphone. He says to her that, "Heaven is siding with us".
Jirokichi Suzuki, who waits at Nagoya station, orders the train to head there without stopping, so he can capture the murderer himself. Without any other choice, Kogoro, Conan, and Sera go to interrogate the passengers. Ran, Sonoko, Agasa, and the Detective Boys return to their room. Mitsuhiko brings up the subject of the woman who saved them from the fire in the last case. It is revealed that Mitsuhuko had sent a video recording of the woman to Kogoro, so Kogoro could find and thank her. Kogoro also thought of uploading the video to the internet. The woman is actually Shiho Miyano. This causes Haibara to panic and think her ominous feeling is due to Black Organzation members on the train.
Jirokichi calls a meeting with the Nagoya Police directing them to restore his and their honor by capturing the murderer post haste. Gin and Vodka watch the pep rally from behind a column on the Nagoya platform. Gin receives an text from Vermouth that Sherry is indeed boarded the train. Conan receives another unknown message. When Sera asks about and tries to look at the message, Conan quickly hides it and says he is just looking up the article on the past case that involves the victim and the passengers. Haibara also receives a message from an unknown address who claim to be Vermouth, asking, "Are you ready?" Haibara makes an excuse to go out. Ran notices her strange behavior and tries but fails to follow her. Alone, Haibara recalls the tape left by her mother, Elena Miyano, which talks about Haibara's parents starting a drug project that will require them to leave Shiho and Akemi behind, a project they call "Silver Bullet". Haibara then regrets that she misunderstood and that the drug was something that shouldn't have been made. She looks at the antidote to APTX 4869 that she is holding and decides to take it so that she can avoid involving those with her in the Black Organization's plot to capture or kill her. Before she can take it, Okiya confronts Haibara, commenting that he can predict the "sisters" without fail, and invites her to "enter our area". Haibara runs away from him instead, thinking she can't be killed while in a shrunken state.

==== Intersection ====
Conan is still investigating the case. He asks the suspects to be filmed while running. Sera leaves the group, intending to take the recordings to the Detective Boys to ask them which looks most like the masked suspect they chased earlier. On the way, Amuro notices her from a room and contacts someone with his cellphone. Scar Akai then walks past the mysterious woman who had come with Okiya. The woman says something to Scar Akai as he passes which startles him. But before he can follow her, Sera confronts him and asks, "Who are you?" Scar Akai smiles and tells Sera, "you haven't changed a bit." and he reveals his face to her. Sera, surprised and confused, responds with "Shuu-nii". (nii is Japanese suffix to call an older brother). She questions Scar Akai, stating that she heard that Akai had died. Sera and Scar Akai's confrontation ends abruptly when Scar Akai knocks Sera unconscious with a taser. Scar Akai then replies that Sera's response was the one he wanted to hear.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>
The culprit is '''Satoru Andou'''.

====Evidence====
<gallery widths=185px perrow=5>
Image:Mystery Train Anime Clue 4.png|Satoru Andou boards with a large and heavy suitcase. This contains the folding mirror he uses for the trick
File:701 6.png|Satoru Andou was the assistant of Etsuto Murobashi earlier
Image:Mystery Train Anime Clue 7.png|Once the train entered a tunnel, the attendant heard a prerecorded call bell sound and went to room 8A because their call light was burnt out. Satoru Andou had snuck onto the train earlier and broken the light
Image:Mystery Train Anime Clue 3.png|While the attendant spoke with Taisaku Noto in 8A, the still living Murobashi leaned out to see where the attendant was and sent a message to Satoru Andou to come
Image:Mystery Train Anime Clue 6.png|The attendant then rushed to see Mari Idenami in 8E because pushed the call bell when she heard a watch alarm in her room. Mari Idenami later finds a watch had been hidden in her room and timed to go off when the train entered the tunnel

File:701 11.png|Etsuto Murobashi is holding a silenced handgun. Satoru Andou intended it to look like a suicide, but did not realize it is too awkward to hold a silenced handgun to one's head at the temple
Image:Mystery Train Anime Clue 5.png|Across from Etsuto Murobashi is a single gunshot hole in the couch. Sera could see it by looking in the door. Satoru Andou asked Murobashi to fire this shot so his gun would look used

====Conclusion====
Amuro opens the large suitcase Andou brought with him and reveals it is a folding mirror that fits the door, with a blob of brown paint placed to hide the number of the door. Andou confesses to the crime.

====Motive====
Satoru Andou wanted retribution against Etsuto Murobashi because his wife was killed in the fire that Etsuto Murobashi set in order to steal valuable artworks from the mansion unnoticed. Initially Andou was going to force Murobashi to confess to the rest of the passengers, but Murobashi gleefully recalling his exciting escape from the fire enraged Andou.

While the deduction show still continues, Scar Akai enters the room belonging to the mysterious lady and throws her luggage out the window. The mysterious woman appears at the door and tells Scar Akai that the dress in the luggage was her favorite. The mysterious woman reveals herself to be [[Yukiko Kudo]] by naming Scar Akai as her old friend, "[[Sharon Vineyard|Sharon]]". Scar Akai rips his mask off and confirms Yukiko's deduction that she is none other than '''Vermouth'''.

Yukiko boasts to Vermouth that they got a hold of Vermouth's weak points, which is Vermouth that doesn't want anyone, including her partner on the train, to know that Conan and Haibara shrunk from the [[APTX 4869]]. Also, Vermouth had ordered software from CG programmer, [[Suguru Itakura]] that probably is related to the de-aging. Yukiko also showed her surprise that Vermouth had a fight with Itakura on the film set even though Sharon is known for her consideration for the staff. Vermouth responds to Yukiko's boast by saying she is the one who saw through Yukiko's team's plan. Vermouth deducts that they will try to fake Shiho Miyano's death so the Black Organization will let go of her for good. Vermouth explains then that Haibara can't be shown dead in her child body because it will cause the Detective Boys to panic and cry, which would bring the Black Organization's attention to them as Sherry's acquaintances. But if Haibara dies in her original body (played by Yukiko with makeup) and those who know her secret keep quiet about that, then the Detective Boys will be none the wiser. This scene will also result in heavily checking the passengers' belongings upon disembarkment and the Black Organization won't be able to take "Sherry's" body away to confirm her identity. Vermouth tells Yukiko that's not only Yukiko's luggage that she disposed of, but the bullet-proof vest with blood contraption that she hid in the basin closet as well. Yukiko say the two are even because even Vermouth sees though her plan but hasn't found Haibara. Vermouth reveals her trick to smoke Haibara out by detonating mutilple smoke bombs she placed earlier. (The bombs can be seen under the attendent's seat and also in the crime scene.)

At the deduction scene, Amuro is the first to notice the smoke, concludes the train is on fire and tells everyone to evacuate to the front of the train. The suspects, who are pyrophobics after surviving the mansion fire incident, become panicked and run. But Conan has to wake up Kogoro and urges Komino and Sumitomo of room D to hurry up and leave. Next, Vermouth correctly deduces that Haibara won't escape the fire to the front like everyone else, but will go in the opposite direction. Then Haibara is shown, now in her original body, running through the smoke past the victim's room (7B). A voice from behind states that Shiho is "as expected of Hell's Angel's daughter" that she is "very much alike". The voice belongs to '''Tooru Amuro''', who introduces himself to Shiho with his codename, [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]].

Ran meets Kogoro and asks him where Haibara and Sera are (she assumes he'd know because they should pass his deduction site at some point), but Kogoro doesn't know. The train conductor tries to calm the passengers down from panic about the fire and tells them that the staff has yet to know the full details on the situation but will try to find out as soon as possible.

Meanwhile, Vermouth continues to predict Sherry's movement that she will head to the back of train and be killed by the Organization in a silent fashion, rather than involving her friends. Conan then phones Yukiko to inform her that he can't find Haibara anywhere. Vermouth grabs Yukiko's phone away and impersonates her on the phone, telling Conan that Haibara probably escaped to the front like everyone else. Vermouth then receives a message from Bourbon confirming that Sherry is indeed in carriage 8. She then boasts to Yukiko that's it's her team that has the advantage.

In carriage 8, Bourbon tells Sherry he has met her parents and sister. Sherry says she has heard about him and knows he is a rival to Moroboshi Dai, [[Akemi]]'s lover. Bourbon says Dai was an FBI mole, as he suspected. When he heard that Dai/Akai was dead, he didn't believe it at first and enlists Vermouth's help to disguise himself as Akai, hanging around people who knew Akai to observe their reactions. However, this time he had Vermouth disguise as Akai in place of him. He comes to the conclusion that Akai is really dead.

At the Nagoya train station, Gin comments that the presence of the Jirokichi and Aichi police only make the explosion seem like an attempt on their lives, which covers the Black Orgainzation's intention. He then becomes surprised when Vodka informs him Vermouth was asking for more explosives for the plan, without telling him the purpose.

Bourbon, meanwhile, reveals his plan to take Sherry back to the Black Organization alive. He'll have her step inside the storage hold, knock her out, bomb the carriage link to seperate the storage hold form the rest of the train, then have a helicopter on his side take her away. Sherry refuses cooperate, stating that the storage hold is full of explosives, causing Bourbon to realize that Vermouth had altered the plan, wanting to kill Sherry from the start. Sherry steps away behind the door, while a mysterious figure appears behind Bourbon, obscured by smoke. Bourbon asks if the figure is Vermouth; the mysterious figure throws a hand grenade at him. Bourbon, surprised at this, asks who the person is. The figure is revealed to the readers (but not to Bourbon) that he has Shuichi Akai's face, without the scar, and dresses in an outfit like those of Okiya Subaru's, wearing Sera's hat. The grenade explodes, interruping their one-sided conversation. The storage hold is seperated from the train, and seconds later, it explodes, triggered by Vermouth's cellphone.

Vermouth explains to Yukiko she purposefully detonated the second bomb having heard the first one (which confirmed that the storage hold was separated from the train), making sure the explosion wouldn't cause the train to derail. Vermouth leaves the room while Yukiko begins frantically calling for Haibara, but she stops immediately after Vermouth is out of sight. Bourbon is left wondering who the figure was, but he seems to have an idea.

The train stops and the passengers disembark. Vermouth phones Gin about the situation, in which Bourbon claims he saw Sherry die in the explosion; Gin shows doubt about Sherry's survival. Gin points out that Vermouth wanted an explosion on the train so the train couldn't reach its destination at Nagoya (where Gin was waiting). Vermouth tells him they have to be questioned, along with other passengers and that he should be satisfied enough hearing that Sherry is dead. Vermouth hangs up and overhears the Detective Boys talk to Agasa (who has Haibara sleeping on his back) about how they found Haibara in room 7B. What happened was that Haibara got dizzy after taking the drug for her cold and decided to rest there. The room was empty due to it being a crime scene. Vermouth realizes Yukiko's team figured that Haibara would go there, so they waited for her there. Conan's phone call to Yukiko was just an act to keep Vermouth in Yukiko's room while they took Haibara to saftey. But Vermouth can't figure out who the woman who was supposedly killed in front of Bourbon is.

Vermouth then figured out Kaitou Kid's involvement after overhearing Sonoko voice her frustration to Ran that Kaitou Kid won't be able to board the train after the explosion. Vermouth also overheard Conan on the phone with Kaitou Kid, apologizing to him for draging him into a situation with guns and bombs. Kaitou Kid is shown leaving the exploding train on his hang-glider, the gadget Conan deduced Kid would hide in the storage room in the first place. It is revealed in a flashback that Conan had deduced Kid's identity. Kid disguised as '''Hiruka Sumitomo''' (the maid) and had his accomplice disguised as '''Natsue Komino''' (The wheelchair lady). His accomplice, heavily hinted to be [[Konosuke Jii]], can't mimic the voice of the lady, and relies on Kid to voice both of them. He just mouths the words (similar to when Conan solves case as Agasa). So when Conan has Sumitomo run in the corridor, Komino can't speak. Conan has the advantage of being short (looking from below) and saw through Jii's act easily, as well as their reaction about the fire, which wouldn't match the reaction of a pyrophobic.

Conan brings up the point that he purposefully overlooked Kid's actions to avoid being involved with the case as leverage to ask Kid for help. Conan shows him a video of Shiho Miyano and has Kid disguise as her. Conan tells him to be careful because guns and explosives are involved. Conan finishes his conversation by asking Kid to return his cellphone to the detective agency. Kid, annoyed, comments that Conan should be in debt to him for helping, rather than the other way around.

Because of the explosion, the train is brought to an early stop and the passengers disembark so they can be questioned by the police at the station. Konosuke Jii, Kaitou Kid's assistant, has removed his old woman disguise because he is unable to speak without Kid to assist him. Sera tries to figure out what's going on as Ran return her hat which she found in the corridor. Bourbon watches them silently and then asks Vermouth to give him the files from before and after Akai's death one more time. Vermouth agrees and Bourbon thinks he must reopen his investigation from "square one". Lastly, Subaru Okiya, watching Vermouth and Bourbon from behind, opens one of his eyes for the first time to reveal his Shuichi Akai-like eyes.

===Character background revelations===
*[[Rei Furuya|Tooru Amuro]] is revealed to be the Black Organization member [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]].
*[[Scar Akai]] is revealed to be a disguise used by Bourbon and [[Vermouth]] to impersonate [[Shuichi Akai]] to ensure that the real Akai is dead by judging the reactions of Akai's sister and close friends. Bourbon had been using the disguise prior to boarding the train, but he had Vermouth take the role because she can imitate Akai's voice and block Masumi Sera from interfering.
*[[Masumi Sera]] is [[Shuichi Akai]]'s younger sister.
*[[Subaru Okiya]] is an ally of Conan's and his heavily hinted to be the real [[Shuichi Akai]]. The man who looks like Akai who drops the grenade is wearing Subaru's clothes and had taken Masumi's hat which had been in her room when Okiya returned Sera.

===Important event summaries===
*Vermouth reports to Gin that [[Shiho Miyano]] has been killed. Although she later realizes she had been tricked, Vermouth keeps this discovery a secret.
*Yukiko deduces that Vermouth has some vital reason to hide from the rest of the Black Organization that Shiho and Shinichi have deaged due to [[APTX 4869]]. She also confirms that Vermouth was involved in trying to force [[Suguru Itakura]] to finish a special project he had stopped.
*Yukiko wins the bet she made with Vermouth, with the stakes being that Vermouth had to give up on hunting Shiho completely.
*Bourbon, who had earlier concluded Akai was truly dead, begins to second-guess his deductions. He asks Vermouth for detailed information from before and after Akai's death so he can begin from square one.
*Conan discovers Tooru Amuro is Bourbon, which Bourbon does not realize.
*[[Elena Miyano|Elena]] and [[Atsushi Miyano]] had worked on a project for the Black Organization called [[Silver Bullet (drug)|Silver Bullet]] which ultimately caused them to leave Shiho and Akemi. Shiho realizes that she should have never tried to complete the project. This solves the mystery of what Elena said on the final part of the tape left for Shiho's 18th birthday.
*[[Kaitou Kid]]'s heist has been postponed because the Belltree Express where [[Jirokichi Suzuki]]'s challenge would have been issued is under investigation. Kaitou Kid now considers Conan to be in his debt.
