==== Part 1 ====
The [[Detective Boys]], including [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]], accompanied by their teacher [[Sumiko Kobayashi|Miss Kobayashi]], visit the Rampo residence. The storehouse which Rampo used as library entailed a great deal of valuable books, stimulating the excitement of Conan and the rest. In the meantime, [[Miwako Sato|Detective Sato]] and [[Wataru Takagi|Detective Takagi]] arrive, whereupon they are informed that a murder case has taken place in a nearby park. And - which is more - the victim's belongings seem to be related to the storehouse that was often closed to the public... The modern-day Detective Boys shall challenge this difficult case!

== Trivia ==
* Excluding the remake of [[The Moonlight Sonata Murder|Moonlight Sonata Murder Case]] (episodes 1000-1001), this is the first time in 24 years that the episode title ends with "murder case"{{note|group="N"|The last time in ''Detective Conan'' where the episode title included "murder case" was [[The Twenty Year Old Murderous Intent: The Symphony Serial Murder Case|'''Episode 174''': The Twenty Year Old Murderous Intent: The Symphony Serial Murder Case]], which aired in 2000.}}.
* This case features a different [[Joke Card]] of Conan impersonating the pose of Edogawa Rampo.
* This is [[Sumiko Kobayashi]]'s sixth appearance in anime-original episodes. Precisely, the protagonist of Edogawa Rampo's Detective Boys from [[wikipedia: Kogoro Akechi|Kogoro Akechi]] series also shares the same surname; Yoshio Kobayashi (小林芳雄).

=== Situation ===
As Kogoro, Ran, and Conan are on their way home from a hot spring in Mie Prefecture, they boarded a train together with a pair of doctors. They arrived at a station where one may change trains to another line, but no one could possibly change trains since the two lines are scheduled differently by a mere five-minute difference. At the station where the trio are to change trains to one going to Tokyo, a murder is discovered. The only suspect rides in the train with Conan's group while the victim rides on a train from a different line.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The culprit is '''Takashi Date'''. The victim was blackmailing the doctor on incidents of malpractice and so was silenced. The decisive evidence of his guilt was that he robbed the victim including a substantial amount of coins to give the impression of indiscriminate robbery. To keep the impression that he was on the same train the victim was in the entire time he bought a drink using one of those coins. The possibility of fingerprints was brought up but none were found suggesting Date wiped them off. However, that included those of the stewardess which proves his involvement in the crime.</spoiler>

'''{{nihongo|Heiji Hattori|服部平次|Hattori Heiji}}''', also known as '''Harley Hartwell''' in the Funimation dub, is an Osakan high school detective in the manga and anime series ''[[Detective Conan]]''. He is a childhood friend and the romantic interest of [[Kazuha Toyama]]. Originally a detective rival to [[Shinichi Kudo]], Heiji has since [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|found out]] [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s true identity and the two often team up to work on cases. He was the first person to ''deduce'' Conan's true identity.

== Background ==
[[File:Cuffed.png|thumb|left|200px|Heiji and Kazuha cuffed together as children.]]
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.

At one time during their childhood, Heiji had had the unfortunate idea of locking himself and his friend [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] together with a set of old handcuffs which had no key to unlock it; as a result they involuntarily had to spend time together even on some rather intimate occasions (i.e., bathroom visits) before the cuffs could be removed. As a reminder of this 'closeness' and for good luck, Kazuha fashioned two identical lucky charms, each incorporating a chain link from the cuffs, which she and Heiji have been wearing ever since.<ref name=StabbedWallet>Manga Volume 19: Files 185 (Stabbed Wallet Case)</ref>

In the news, Heiji has been publicly declared the "Great Detective of the West", while [[Shinichi Kudo]] is the "Great Detective of the East". As a result, Heiji showed up unannounced at the Mouri Detective Agency looking for Kudo, seeking to challenge his rival to a showdown of wits. (In fact, they had such a contest before, three years previously, [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|during a skiing trip in the Yamagata prefecture]], although they never learned about each other's identities at that time.<ref>Manga Chapters 518-522: Yuki-Onna Murder Case</ref>) Heiji was soundly defeated in the following case after [[Conan Edogawa]] temporarily turned back into Shinichi, but he gained a lot of respect for Shinichi in the process.<ref>Manga Chapters 092-096: The Great Detective Of The West</ref>

During their second encounter, Conan knocked Heiji out to use him as the mouthpiece for the voice-changing bow-tie. But during his final presentation of the facts, Heiji awoke prematurely and discovered Conan's secret, and in the end managed to blackmail Conan into revealing all.<ref>Manga Chapters 121: The Holmes Freak Case: The Revelation</ref> Ever since that revelation, Heiji has been helping Conan in hiding his secret identity, though he constantly slips up by calling him "Kudo" in front of [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and Kazuha.

Heiji and Conan most often congenially team up to solve assorted cases. Heiji has also helped Conan investigate the [[Black Organization]] on several occasions, such as when the two investigated [[Jodie Starling]],<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=34|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 2-7|language=English}}</ref> or when Heiji investigated [[Eisuke Hondou]] on his own and then told Conan his findings<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=56|chapter=Files 7|language=Japanese}}</ref>, but he never had a real direct confrontation with the primary antagonist. He has also helped cover for Conan during several of the brief instances where Conan regained his true adolescent age, and has even disguised himself as Shinichi on several occasions in order to protect his identity, even though he is not very good at it (mostly owing to his distinctive Kansai dialect). When not working on a case, he regularly attempts to invite Conan to take in the sights and culinary delights of Osaka, which he considers more wholesome than Tokyo's.
{{clearleft}}

== Personality ==
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.

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.

Despite him knowing the value and necessity of remaining calm in the face of a crime, Heiji tends to be impulsive at times, which tends to cloud his judgment a little. This was discussed directly in the "Detective Koushien" case, when [[Saguru Hakuba]] accused Heiji of being a poor detective for disrupting a crime scene in his rush to see if the victim could still be saved. Heiji, however, solved the case in the end, and reminded Saguru that the detective's first job is to prevent death if he can. Heiji is also known to be extremely protective of those he values as close friends, and tries hard to keep them out of harm. There are several instances where Hattori tells Kazuha to wait for him or leaves her behind in order to keep her from being involved in cases, simply because he's afraid of her getting hurt.<ref>Manga Volume 59, File 6, pg 6: Armored Warrior</ref><ref>Manga Volume 59, File 7, pg 11: Art of War</ref><ref name=653p3>Manga Volume 63, File 1, page 3: My Deduction</ref>

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.

Heiji occasionally enjoys teasing Shinichi's kid form. He has fun jokingly (sometimes mistakenly) calling Conan "Kudo" in front of Ran at his friend's expense. He often treats Conan/ Shinichi as a younger brother and their close relationship even evokes Kazuha's jealousy from time to time. In return Conan truly trusts and respects Heiji.

Although he is very competitive when it comes to detective cases, when a case gets hot, he and Shinichi work effectively together. During Shinichi's first return to his high school during the play performance, Heiji had let him take the lead role in the investigations, saying that it was because they were in Tokyo, Shinichi's turf.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=26|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 1-7|language=English}}</ref>

Although he frequently mocks Kazuha for her superstitions and enthusiasm for good-luck charms, Heiji has several times revealed that he puts more trust in them than he would admit. He once dreamed of Shinichi being murdered, and out subsequently insisted that Conan wear his omamori, the good luck charm Kazuha gave him. The omamori ended up saving Shinichi's life by deflecting a knife blow, but Heiji, without his usual protection, was shot in the stomach.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=19|chapter=Files 5-8|language=Japanese}}</ref> In another case, Ran hung a teruterubozu, a charm that's supposed to ensure good weather, in the window so that Conan would have good weather for his field trip the next day. Heiji, however, got up in the middle of the night to take down the teruterubozu so that Conan's field trip would be rained out and he could accompany Heiji on an investigation of the The Red Horse Among The Flames.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=39|language=Japanese}}</ref>

During the "Bond of Fire" case, Heiji questions Conan if they were right in stopping the culprit from committing suicide, leading to the latter responding that if a detective knows a criminal is about to commit suicide and does nothing to stop it, then the detective is no better than a murderer. Heiji takes to this heart, as evidenced by him stopping the serial murderer in the "Stabbed Wallet" case from committing suicide.

His relationship with Shinichi/Conan from his end. In Heiji's first appearance, he traveled all the way to Tokyo to challenge Shinichi Kudo to a deduction battle so he could win and show he was the superior detective of the two. After Shinichi solves the case (which included correcting Heiji's wrong assumptions), the Tokyoite detective then gives a short speech to the Osakan that there's no such thing as the superior or inferior detective, only the truth; Heiji is left both speechless and amazed. Throughout his subsequent appearances,(which involved deducing "Conan's" real identity), Heiji may have kept his competitiveness towards his fellow detective, but he now considers Shinichi/Conan to be his partner and best friend, willing to do anything to ensure his happiness and safety.

== Appearance ==
[[File:vlcsnap-2013-09-20-15h27m58s194.png|thumb|right|200px|Heiji talks about his skin color in movie 7.]]
Heiji is a handsome man with dark brown, spiky hair and dark brown skin which he claims is inherited from his grandfather.<ref>Chapter 278</ref> His eyes are blue in the manga (like every character). Initially, his eyes appeared dark green, but are now blue<ref>Episode 710</ref>. He speaks with a strong Kansai Ben accent, which is typical of the Osaka region. Since Heiji is so strongly accustomed to this accent, his lingual habit can be a disadvantage at times, especially when he has to impersonate someone who uses standard Japanese.<ref>[[Volume 26# School Play Case|Manga Chapter 256: ''Concealed Truth'']]</ref><ref>OVA 06: ''[[Follow the Vanished Diamond! Conan & Heiji vs. Kid!]]''</ref> He has a scar behind the left ear from being hit during an Oyodo competition as said in episode 263.

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.
{{clear}}

== Skills ==
=== Keen Intellect ===
Heiji's detective skills are the same as Shinichi's. Because of his skills, Heiji has acquired his nickname "The Great Detective Of The West." Like Shinichi, he has a keen eye for details, and can spot any unusual aspects in a case that most people tend to ignore or not take into account and has extraordinarily broad and deep knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to recall every detail of an investigation, and may have a photographic memory to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Heiji's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony. However, unlike Shinichi, Heiji seem to be more competitive and hot-blooded while solving a case, which sometimes leads him into making a wrong deduction [[Diplomat Murder Case|i.e. the case in his first appearance.]] Like the other "genius" detectives, Heiji has shown himself to have an eidetic memory, capable of remembering complex letter and number sequences at only a glance, such as when he was able to solve a code in his head during the "Heiji and Kazuha in Grave Danger" arc, and even reproduce another message using the same code to text to Conan. When Heiji and Shinichi work together, they're each other's equal and will often arrive at the same conclusions. But when they compete with each other or their deductions differ, Shinichi usually wins. Recent cases have begun to subvert this, but usually only with subjects Heiji specializes in - e.g. kendo. He is also good if it comes to someone who has his own dialect, Kansai dialect.

=== Athletic ability ===
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.

=== Others ===
Heiji is also a capable motorcycle rider. He also speaks fluent English.<ref>[[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective]]</ref> Heiji has shown to have the ability to deduce a woman's swimsuit without actually looking at it.<ref>[[Solitary Island of the Princess and the Dragon King's Palace]]</ref> He is also shown to have a "Kudou Radar" where he correctly guessed Conan's involvement in the case without actually seeing Conan.<ref>[[Furinkazan]]</ref>

== Plot overview ==
=== Great Detective of the West (Manga: [[Volume 10#Great Detective of the_West|92-96]], Anime: [[Diplomat Murder Case|48-49]]) ===
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.

=== Holmes Freak Case (Manga: [[Volume 12#Holmes Freak Case|117-121]], Anime: [[Holmes Freak Murder Case|57-58]]) ===
After this first case, it only takes one more run-in with Conan to get Heiji thinking about the similarities between Conan and Shinichi. It is on the "[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]" that Heiji, despite professing a preference for [[Wikipedia: Ellery Queen|Ellery Queen]], exercises the Holmesian axiom: "When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." In addition, after Conan had [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|knocked him out]] to use him as his mouthpiece to present his evidence, Heiji receives a clout on the head from [[Kogoro Mouri]], which wakes him up again, and from the corner of his eye he spies Conan standing behind him and using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie]] to mimic his voice; he thus discovers Conan's secret, which forces Conan to explain his situation.

=== Bond of Fire Case (Manga: [[Volume 15#Bond of Fire Case|150-153]], Anime: [[Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case|77-78]]) ===
On their third case together, Conan was initially irritated to see Heiji, but they quickly formed a strong team. Together they cornered the murderer and even took steps to preventing the suicide she had planned. When she realizes that she won't be able to kill herself she weeps piteously, causing Heiji to whisper to Conan, "perhaps we should have let her die." Conan replies that "a detective who corners a murderer with logic and then lets them commit suicide is no better than a murderer."

=== Mystery Writer Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Mystery Writer Case|183]], Anime: [[The Mystery Writer Disappearance Case|117]]) ===
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.

=== Stabbed Wallet Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Stabbed Wallet Case|185-188]], Anime: [[The Naniwa Serial Murder Case|118]]) ===
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.

=== Wedding Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 21#Wedding Murder Case|211-214]], Anime: [[The Night Before the Wedding Locked Room Case|141-142]]) ===

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.

=== 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]]) ===
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.

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.

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

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

They investigate those with the surname Ito but are unable to find information about Heiji.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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]].

== Non-canon plot overview ==

== Relationships analysis ==
=== Kazuha Toyama ===
{{main|Heiji Hattori and Kazuha Toyama}}
Like Shinichi's relationship with Ran, Heiji's relationship with [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] is a very close one: they know each other since their childhoods, and have stayed close through the years. Their relationship is identified as a romantic one by other characters and fans alike, even though they claim that they don't have that sort of relationship or feelings for each other. Heiji is clueless when it comes to love and in the majority of the manga and anime has not yet realized he has actual feelings for Kazuha, until recently. On the class trip where Ran and Shinichi almost share a kiss, Heiji is explicitly jealous, all the while thinking of Kazuha, even saying “[he’s] running out of places to confess.” While it’s unknown when he plans on confessing, it is clear that Heiji loves Kazuha. It has been shown that he becomes visibly jealous when he sees Kazuha with other guys, becoming distracted throughout the whole case. At one point, after a certain case, while looking at Kazuha, his thoughts read: 'Fool. You're too naive. I promise you, as long as you're with me, I'll never let anyone hurt you.'. Kazuha knows she has feelings for Heiji, as she shows this by being protective and chasing off other women that might have a interest in him In on of the mangas Kazuha attempts to confess her feelings after finding out that Shinichi had done so with Ran, but is unlucky because by telling him, Heiji ran off to tease Conan(Shinichi) for it. She one time even attempted to sacrifice herself to save Heiji during a case in which accidentally both fell off a cliff. When the branch that Heiji was holding and both of them were hanging on to was breaking, she stabbed his hand with an arrow of love to prevent him from falling and force him to let her fall; however, he still held on despite the wound. Also, they have a similar situation to Ran and Shinichi, being childhood friends that have romantic feelings for each other and have similar backgrounds. Heiji is a teenage detective and she is a police detective's daughter, like Ran is a detective's daughter and Shinichi is a teenage detective. They are even called the 'Ran and Shinichi of Osaka' by fans of the series, since they're so similar. Although they are constantly fighting, they both are very close friends. It is also shown in the seventh movie, ''[[Crossroad in the Ancient Capital]]'', that Kazuha is Heiji's first love, though he didn't know it was her at the time. In the most recent case, Heiji confessed to Kazuha when she was taken away by some suspicious men, saying "What are you doing to my Kazuha?!". When Kazuha questioned him about it, he claimed that she was wrong and there was no evidence that proves his confession (although Shinichi recorded it). Nonetheless, it is shown in the file 912 that he has actually realized his feelings for her, as Ran questions him about the confession. He denies it to her, but thinks that he needed a more important place to confess, as Kudo confessed in front of the Big Ben.

=== Shinichi Kudo/Conan Edogawa ===
[[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]
His sharp intellect helped Heiji quickly figure out Conan's real identity as Shinichi. Heiji acts rather brotherly towards [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]], even going so far as to pretend to be him on various occasions so that no one figures out that Shinichi and Conan are the same person. Of course, this might also be to make up for all the times Heiji calls him Kudo, which has nearly given Shinichi away multiple times. Heiji is concerned for Shinichi when he gets into trouble and life-or-death situations. They are as close as real brothers, both being detectives who have romantic feelings for their childhood friends. When they're caught solving a case together, it's not unusual for their minds to move in sync; because of this and several other factors, they maintain a sort of friendly rivalry with each other. However, they are both all business when a case gets serious. Heiji has, on several occasions, declared himself to be Shinichi's best friend.<ref>English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective</ref> He also becomes extremely determined to one-up Shinichi's London confession to Ran by creating an even better setting to one day confess his love to his childhood friend, Kazuha.

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.

=== Ran Mouri ===
Heiji and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] are very good friends, bonding after Heiji's many trips to Tokyo because he "misses Conan". Ran respects Heiji as a very skilled detective who reminds her of Shinichi, but whenever Heiji and Kazuha run into an argument, Ran seems to take Kazuha's side.

Since Heiji knows that Ran is Shinichi's Girlfriend, he tends to tease Shinichi about her quite often and will give him advice on his romantic relationship with her. He is also sometimes protective of her for the sake of Shinichi, such as when [[Soshi Okita]] flirted with Ran and he told him to back off since she is "his friend's girl" referring to Shinichi.<ref>Episode 916</ref> Since it's practically identical with his relationship with Kazuha (Even though they aren't on the same level as Shinichi & Ran's romantic relationship).

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.

=== Heizo Hattori ===
Heiji wants to become a detective, and his [[Heizo Hattori|father]] is very supportive of this, helping him solve tough cases. However, his father prefers a "tough love" approach, though mostly for the sole purpose of using Heiji to lure out a suspect.<ref>Episode 263</ref>

=== Shizuka Hattori ===
[[Shizuka Hattori|Shizuka]] is Heiji's mother and he sometimes calls her an "old lady".

=== Kogoro Mouri ===
[[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.

=== Goro Otaki ===
[[Goro Otaki|Otaki]] and Heiji are very good friends.

=== Juzo Megure ===
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.

=== Momiji Ooka ===
[[Momiji Ooka|Momiji]] is close to her "future husband" Heiji. According to the 21st movie (which has yet to be contradicted by the manga / anime), they met as children and played karuta together. Heiji made a "pinky promise" with her about playing more later, which Momiji mistook as a marriage proposal. Unbeknownst to Heiji, Momiji held on the promise for several years, firmly believing that they are destined to be together.
However, despite Momiji's feelings for Heiji, he does not reciprocate them most likely because of his feelings for Kazuha.

'''{{nihongo|Heiji Hattori|服部平次|Hattori Heiji}}''', also known as '''Harley Hartwell''' in the Funimation dub, is an Osakan high school detective in the manga and anime series ''[[Detective Conan]]''. He is a childhood friend and the romantic interest of [[Kazuha Toyama]]. Originally a detective rival to [[Shinichi Kudo]], Heiji has since [[List of characters who know Conan's identity|found out]] [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]]'s true identity and the two often team up to work on cases. He was the first person to ''deduce'' Conan's true identity.

== Background ==
[[File:Cuffed.png|thumb|left|200px|Heiji and Kazuha cuffed together as children.]]
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.

At one time during their childhood, Heiji had had the unfortunate idea of locking himself and his friend [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] together with a set of old handcuffs which had no key to unlock it; as a result they involuntarily had to spend time together even on some rather intimate occasions (i.e., bathroom visits) before the cuffs could be removed. As a reminder of this 'closeness' and for good luck, Kazuha fashioned two identical lucky charms, each incorporating a chain link from the cuffs, which she and Heiji have been wearing ever since.<ref name=StabbedWallet>Manga Volume 19: Files 185 (Stabbed Wallet Case)</ref>

In the news, Heiji has been publicly declared the "Great Detective of the West", while [[Shinichi Kudo]] is the "Great Detective of the East". As a result, Heiji showed up unannounced at the Mouri Detective Agency looking for Kudo, seeking to challenge his rival to a showdown of wits. (In fact, they had such a contest before, three years previously, [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|during a skiing trip in the Yamagata prefecture]], although they never learned about each other's identities at that time.<ref>Manga Chapters 518-522: Yuki-Onna Murder Case</ref>) Heiji was soundly defeated in the following case after [[Conan Edogawa]] temporarily turned back into Shinichi, but he gained a lot of respect for Shinichi in the process.<ref>Manga Chapters 092-096: The Great Detective Of The West</ref>

During their second encounter, Conan knocked Heiji out to use him as the mouthpiece for the voice-changing bow-tie. But during his final presentation of the facts, Heiji awoke prematurely and discovered Conan's secret, and in the end managed to blackmail Conan into revealing all.<ref>Manga Chapters 121: The Holmes Freak Case: The Revelation</ref> Ever since that revelation, Heiji has been helping Conan in hiding his secret identity, though he constantly slips up by calling him "Kudo" in front of [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and Kazuha.

Heiji and Conan most often congenially team up to solve assorted cases. Heiji has also helped Conan investigate the [[Black Organization]] on several occasions, such as when the two investigated [[Jodie Starling]],<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=34|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 2-7|language=English}}</ref> or when Heiji investigated [[Eisuke Hondou]] on his own and then told Conan his findings<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=56|chapter=Files 7|language=Japanese}}</ref>, but he never had a real direct confrontation with the primary antagonist. He has also helped cover for Conan during several of the brief instances where Conan regained his true adolescent age, and has even disguised himself as Shinichi on several occasions in order to protect his identity, even though he is not very good at it (mostly owing to his distinctive Kansai dialect). When not working on a case, he regularly attempts to invite Conan to take in the sights and culinary delights of Osaka, which he considers more wholesome than Tokyo's.
{{clearleft}}

== Personality ==
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.

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.

Despite him knowing the value and necessity of remaining calm in the face of a crime, Heiji tends to be impulsive at times, which tends to cloud his judgment a little. This was discussed directly in the "Detective Koushien" case, when [[Saguru Hakuba]] accused Heiji of being a poor detective for disrupting a crime scene in his rush to see if the victim could still be saved. Heiji, however, solved the case in the end, and reminded Saguru that the detective's first job is to prevent death if he can. Heiji is also known to be extremely protective of those he values as close friends, and tries hard to keep them out of harm. There are several instances where Hattori tells Kazuha to wait for him or leaves her behind in order to keep her from being involved in cases, simply because he's afraid of her getting hurt.<ref>Manga Volume 59, File 6, pg 6: Armored Warrior</ref><ref>Manga Volume 59, File 7, pg 11: Art of War</ref><ref name=653p3>Manga Volume 63, File 1, page 3: My Deduction</ref>

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.

Heiji occasionally enjoys teasing Shinichi's kid form. He has fun jokingly (sometimes mistakenly) calling Conan "Kudo" in front of Ran at his friend's expense. He often treats Conan/ Shinichi as a younger brother and their close relationship even evokes Kazuha's jealousy from time to time. In return Conan truly trusts and respects Heiji.

Although he is very competitive when it comes to detective cases, when a case gets hot, he and Shinichi work effectively together. During Shinichi's first return to his high school during the play performance, Heiji had let him take the lead role in the investigations, saying that it was because they were in Tokyo, Shinichi's turf.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=26|publisher=Viz Media chapter=Files 1-7|language=English}}</ref>

Although he frequently mocks Kazuha for her superstitions and enthusiasm for good-luck charms, Heiji has several times revealed that he puts more trust in them than he would admit. He once dreamed of Shinichi being murdered, and out subsequently insisted that Conan wear his omamori, the good luck charm Kazuha gave him. The omamori ended up saving Shinichi's life by deflecting a knife blow, but Heiji, without his usual protection, was shot in the stomach.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=19|chapter=Files 5-8|language=Japanese}}</ref> In another case, Ran hung a teruterubozu, a charm that's supposed to ensure good weather, in the window so that Conan would have good weather for his field trip the next day. Heiji, however, got up in the middle of the night to take down the teruterubozu so that Conan's field trip would be rained out and he could accompany Heiji on an investigation of the The Red Horse Among The Flames.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Meitantei Conan|volume=39|language=Japanese}}</ref>

During the "Bond of Fire" case, Heiji questions Conan if they were right in stopping the culprit from committing suicide, leading to the latter responding that if a detective knows a criminal is about to commit suicide and does nothing to stop it, then the detective is no better than a murderer. Heiji takes to this heart, as evidenced by him stopping the serial murderer in the "Stabbed Wallet" case from committing suicide.

His relationship with Shinichi/Conan from his end. In Heiji's first appearance, he traveled all the way to Tokyo to challenge Shinichi Kudo to a deduction battle so he could win and show he was the superior detective of the two. After Shinichi solves the case (which included correcting Heiji's wrong assumptions), the Tokyoite detective then gives a short speech to the Osakan that there's no such thing as the superior or inferior detective, only the truth; Heiji is left both speechless and amazed. Throughout his subsequent appearances,(which involved deducing "Conan's" real identity), Heiji may have kept his competitiveness towards his fellow detective, but he now considers Shinichi/Conan to be his partner and best friend, willing to do anything to ensure his happiness and safety.

== Appearance ==
[[File:vlcsnap-2013-09-20-15h27m58s194.png|thumb|right|200px|Heiji talks about his skin color in movie 7.]]
Heiji is a handsome man with dark brown, spiky hair and dark brown skin which he claims is inherited from his grandfather.<ref>Chapter 278</ref> His eyes are blue in the manga (like every character). Initially, his eyes appeared dark green, but are now blue<ref>Episode 710</ref>. He speaks with a strong Kansai Ben accent, which is typical of the Osaka region. Since Heiji is so strongly accustomed to this accent, his lingual habit can be a disadvantage at times, especially when he has to impersonate someone who uses standard Japanese.<ref>[[Volume 26# School Play Case|Manga Chapter 256: ''Concealed Truth'']]</ref><ref>OVA 06: ''[[Follow the Vanished Diamond! Conan & Heiji vs. Kid!]]''</ref> He has a scar behind the left ear from being hit during an Oyodo competition as said in episode 263.

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.
{{clear}}

== Skills ==
=== Keen Intellect ===
Heiji's detective skills are the same as Shinichi's. Because of his skills, Heiji has acquired his nickname "The Great Detective Of The West." Like Shinichi, he has a keen eye for details, and can spot any unusual aspects in a case that most people tend to ignore or not take into account and has extraordinarily broad and deep knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to recall every detail of an investigation, and may have a photographic memory to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Heiji's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony. However, unlike Shinichi, Heiji seem to be more competitive and hot-blooded while solving a case, which sometimes leads him into making a wrong deduction [[Diplomat Murder Case|i.e. the case in his first appearance.]] Like the other "genius" detectives, Heiji has shown himself to have an eidetic memory, capable of remembering complex letter and number sequences at only a glance, such as when he was able to solve a code in his head during the "Heiji and Kazuha in Grave Danger" arc, and even reproduce another message using the same code to text to Conan. When Heiji and Shinichi work together, they're each other's equal and will often arrive at the same conclusions. But when they compete with each other or their deductions differ, Shinichi usually wins. Recent cases have begun to subvert this, but usually only with subjects Heiji specializes in - e.g. kendo. He is also good if it comes to someone who has his own dialect, Kansai dialect.

=== Athletic ability ===
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.

=== Others ===
Heiji is also a capable motorcycle rider. He also speaks fluent English<ref>[[English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective]].</ref> Heiji has shown to have the ability to deduce a woman's swimsuit without actually looking at it.<ref>[[Solitary Island of the Princess and the Dragon King's Palace]]</ref> He is also shown to have a "Kudou Radar" where he correctly guessed Conan's involvement in the case without actually seeing Conan.<ref>[[Furinkazan]]</ref>

== Plot overview ==
=== Great Detective of the West (Manga: [[Volume 10#Great Detective of the_West|92-96]], Anime: [[Diplomat Murder Case|48-49]]) ===
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.

=== Holmes Freak Case (Manga: [[Volume 12#Holmes Freak Case|117-121]], Anime: [[Holmes Freak Murder Case|57-58]]) ===
After this first case, it only takes one more run-in with Conan to get Heiji thinking about the similarities between Conan and Shinichi. It is on the "[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]" that Heiji, despite professing a preference for [[Wikipedia: Ellery Queen|Ellery Queen]], exercises the Holmesian axiom: "When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." In addition, after Conan had [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|knocked him out]] to use him as his mouthpiece to present his evidence, Heiji receives a clout on the head from [[Kogoro Mouri]], which wakes him up again, and from the corner of his eye he spies Conan standing behind him and using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie]] to mimic his voice; he thus discovers Conan's secret, which forces Conan to explain his situation.

=== Bond of Fire Case (Manga: [[Volume 15#Bond of Fire Case|150-153]], Anime: [[Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case|77-78]]) ===
On their third case together, Conan was initially irritated to see Heiji, but they quickly formed a strong team. Together they cornered the murderer and even took steps to preventing the suicide she had planned. When she realizes that she won't be able to kill herself she weeps piteously, causing Heiji to whisper to Conan, "perhaps we should have let her die." Conan replies that "a detective who corners a murderer with logic and then lets them commit suicide is no better than a murderer."

=== Mystery Writer Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Mystery Writer Case|183]], Anime: [[The Mystery Writer Disappearance Case|117]]) ===
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.

=== Stabbed Wallet Case (Manga: [[Volume 19#Stabbed Wallet Case|185-188]], Anime: [[The Naniwa Serial Murder Case|118]]) ===
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.

=== Wedding Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 21#Wedding Murder Case|211-214]], Anime: [[The Night Before the Wedding Locked Room Case|141-142]]) ===

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.

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.

This is quickly debunked, as Kazuha recognizes Heiji in disguise, and the real Shinichi has shown up anyway.

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

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

At 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.

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.

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.

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.

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]].

== Non-canon plot overview ==

== Relationships analysis ==
=== Kazuha Toyama ===
{{main|Heiji Hattori and Kazuha Toyama}}
Like Shinichi's relationship with Ran, Heiji's relationship with [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] is a very close one: they know each other since their childhoods, and have stayed close through the years. Their relationship is identified as a romantic one by other characters and fans alike, even though they claim that they don't have that sort of relationship or feelings for each other. Heiji is clueless when it comes to love and in the majority of the manga and anime has not yet realized he has actual feelings for Kazuha, until recently. On the class trip where Ran and Shinichi almost share a kiss, Heiji is explicitly jealous, all the while thinking of Kazuha, even saying “[he’s] running out of places to confess.” While it’s unknown when he plans on confessing, it is clear that Heiji loves Kazuha. It has been shown that he becomes visibly jealous when he sees Kazuha with other guys, becoming distracted throughout the whole case. At one point, after a certain case, while looking at Kazuha, his thoughts read: 'Fool. You're too naive. I promise you, as long as you're with me, I'll never let anyone hurt you.'. Kazuha knows she has feelings for Heiji, as she shows this by being protective and chasing off other women that might have a interest in him In on of the mangas Kazuha attempts to confess her feelings after finding out that Shinichi had done so with Ran, but is unlucky because by telling him, Heiji ran off to tease Conan(Shinichi) for it. She one time even attempted to sacrifice herself to save Heiji during a case in which accidentally both fell off a cliff. When the branch that Heiji was holding and both of them were hanging on to was breaking, she stabbed his hand with an arrow of love to prevent him from falling and force him to let her fall; however, he still held on despite the wound. Also, they have a similar situation to Ran and Shinichi, being childhood friends that have romantic feelings for each other and have similar backgrounds. Heiji is a teenage detective and she is a police detective's daughter, like Ran is a detective's daughter and Shinichi is a teenage detective. They are even called the 'Ran and Shinichi of Osaka' by fans of the series, since they're so similar. Although they are constantly fighting, they both are very close friends. It is also shown in the seventh movie, ''[[Crossroad in the Ancient Capital]]'', that Kazuha is Heiji's first love, though he didn't know it was her at the time. In the most recent case, Heiji confessed to Kazuha when she was taken away by some suspicious men, saying "What are you doing to my Kazuha?!". When Kazuha questioned him about it, he claimed that she was wrong and there was no evidence that proves his confession (although Shinichi recorded it). Nonetheless, it is shown in the file 912 that he has actually realized his feelings for her, as Ran questions him about the confession. He denies it to her, but thinks that he needed a more important place to confess, as Kudo confessed in front of the Big Ben.

=== Shinichi Kudo/Conan Edogawa ===
[[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]
His sharp intellect helped Heiji quickly figure out Conan's real identity as Shinichi. Heiji acts rather brotherly towards [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]], even going so far as to pretend to be him on various occasions so that no one figures out that Shinichi and Conan are the same person. Of course, this might also be to make up for all the times Heiji calls him Kudo, which has nearly given Shinichi away multiple times. Heiji is concerned for Shinichi when he gets into trouble and life-or-death situations. They are as close as real brothers, both being detectives who have romantic feelings for their childhood friends. When they're caught solving a case together, it's not unusual for their minds to move in sync; because of this and several other factors, they maintain a sort of friendly rivalry with each other. However, they are both all business when a case gets serious. Heiji has, on several occasions, declared himself to be Shinichi's best friend.<ref>English Teacher vs. Great Western Detective</ref> He also becomes extremely determined to one-up Shinichi's London confession to Ran by creating an even better setting to one day confess his love to his childhood friend, Kazuha.

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.

=== Ran Mouri ===
Heiji and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] are very good friends, bonding after Heiji's many trips to Tokyo because he "misses Conan". Ran respects Heiji as a very skilled detective who reminds her of Shinichi, but whenever Heiji and Kazuha run into an argument, Ran seems to take Kazuha's side.

Since Heiji knows that Ran is Shinichi's Girlfriend, he tends to tease Shinichi about her quite often and will give him advice on his romantic relationship with her. He is also sometimes protective of her for the sake of Shinichi, such as when [[Soshi Okita]] flirted with Ran and he told him to back off since she is "his friend's girl" referring to Shinichi.<ref>Episode 916</ref> Since it's practically identical with his relationship with Kazuha (Even though they aren't on the same level as Shinichi & Ran's romantic relationship).

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.

=== Heizo Hattori ===
Heiji wants to become a detective, and his [[Heizo Hattori|father]] is very supportive of this, helping him solve tough cases. However, his father prefers a "tough love" approach, though mostly for the sole purpose of using Heiji to lure out a suspect.<ref>Episode 263</ref>

=== Shizuka Hattori ===
[[Shizuka Hattori|Shizuka]] is Heiji's mother and he sometimes calls her an "old lady".

=== Kogoro Mouri ===
[[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.

=== Goro Otaki ===
[[Goro Otaki|Otaki]] and Heiji are very good friends.

=== Juzo Megure ===
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.

=== Momiji Ooka ===
[[Momiji Ooka|Momiji]] is close to her "future husband" Heiji. According to the 21st movie (which has yet to be contradicted by the manga / anime), they met as children and played karuta together. Heiji made a "pinky promise" with her about playing more later, which Momiji mistook as a marriage proposal. Unbeknownst to Heiji, Momiji held on the promise for several years, firmly believing that they are destined to be together.
However, despite Momiji's feelings for Heiji, he does not reciprocate them most likely because of his feelings for Kazuha.

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

== Case ==
=== Situation ===
Daizo Kurokawa, a wealthy surgeon, was murdered in his own home, hit over the head with a statue. He left a dying message, grabbing the keys of his computer keyboard - JUN.

{{InfoBox Crime
| crime = Murder
| image = Movie1 Case1.jpg
| location = Kurokawa household
| victim = Daizo Kurokawa
| age = 62 years old
| cause-death = Blunt-force trauma
| suspects = Mina Kurokawa, Daisuke Kurokawa, and Manami Nagazawa
| description = While the victim sat at his computer, the culprit snuck up behind him and hit him over the head with a statue.
}}

[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] - wrongly, of course - deduces that the dying message pointed to the victim's wife Mina, saying that "JUN" means June and since June is also called "minazuki" or dry month and Mina was born in June, he wanted to leave a hint that he was murdered by his own wife. Mina is furious.
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] hits Kogoro with his stun-wristwatch and begins explaining the actual facts of the case to the police and the three suspects.

<spoiler>
[[File:Movie1a Gallery.png|thumb|200px|The culprit hits over Daizo Kurokawa's head.]]
[[File:Movie1b Gallery.png|thumb|200px|Daizo Kurokawa is making the message "Ma-Na-Mi".]]
The actual murderer was '''Manami Nagazawa''', the housekeeper of the Kurokawa family. The message wasn't supposed to be "JUN" because the computer keyboard was set to romaji instead of hiragana when the dying victim typed out his message. Switched to hiragana, the message reads "Ma-Na-Mi". Conan also makes Manami show everyone a bloodstain on her sock and she confesses. Her motive was revenge for her late husband, who died after a surgery performed by Daizo while he was drunk. Manami says she tried to find witnesses that Daizo got drunk before the surgery, but his colleagues were too scared to come forward. So, she decided to work for Daizo as a housekeeper and planned her revenge for this day, the first anniversary of her husband's death.</spoiler>

[[File:Movie1c Gallery.png|thumb|left|200px| Conan finds an unusual letter in his mail, an invitation to a party addressed to [[Shinichi Kudo]].]]
Conan goes to [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]]'s house, Conan looks through his mail and finds an unusual-looking letter adressed to [[Shinichi Kudo]], inviting Shinichi to a party.
The letter was sent by famous architect Teiji Moriya. Conan decides to call [[Ran Mouri]] using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|Voice-Changing Bowtie]] and tells her about the invitation, asking her to go to the party in his stead because he is "too busy with his case" and that Kogoro and "that boy who lives with you" can join her as well.

Ran accepts, under the condition that Shinichi joins her for a movie the following Saturday. Conan, horrified, tries to get her to agree to a later date but she insists it has to be on Saturday, May 3. She also asks "Shinichi" if he prefers red or blue. Conan, confused, replies red is his favourite colour and says goodbye to Ran. He has no idea why Ran insists on meeting Shinichi on May 3. On the way home, he meets [[Juzo Megure|Inspector Megure]] who introduces him to another constable working in his department, [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]].

At home, Ran tells Conan and Kogoro that she is going on a date with Shinichi on May 3. She wants to take Shinichi to a late showing at the cinema and, at midnight, surprise him with a red polo shirt because he said red was his favourite colour. Conan suddenly remembers that Shinichi birthday is on May 4. Ran also explains about the tea party invitation and Kogoro isn't exactly enthusiastic about going, so Conan comes up with a trick to convince him.

[[File:Movie1d Gallery.png|thumb|200px|Kogoro is pondering Moriya's quiz.]]
Ran, Kogoro and Conan attend the tea party at Teiji Moriya's house and explain that Shinichi couldn't make it, but Kogoro came instead, delighting their host at having "another famous detective" as his guest. Moriya greets his guests and gives them a riddle, telling everyone that whoever solves it first gets a private tour of his gallery. Conan quickly figures it out and Moriya takes him and Ran upstairs. They chat with the famous architect and Ran says that she is going on a date with Shinichi and they will go watch a film in a building designed by Moriya.

The following day, Ran goes shopping and Conan meets Professor Agasa, asking for his help because he has no idea what to do about his date with Ran. Agasa's TV is on and they watch the news. Someone stole a large quantity of octane from a plant, a gas used to make plastic explosives.
{{InfoBox Crime

Worried, Agasa switches the TV off and his phone rings suddenly. Someone using a voice changing device asks for Shinichi so Agasa hands his phone over. The unknown caller explains that he is the one who stole the octane and asks for Shinichi's phone number. Conan gives it to him and the man tells him "go to Greenbelt Park or the kids will die."

Conan hurries to Greenbelt Park and sees his friends [[Genta Kojima]], [[Ayumi Yoshida]], and [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya]] playing with a remote controlled plane. Mitsuhiko explains to Conan that a strange man with a beard offered the plane to them. Conan has a closer look and notices that there is a bomb attached to the plane, telling Ayumi to let go of it immediately. Ayumi drops the toy and the antenna on top of the plane breaks, causing it to begin flying around uncontrollably. Conan uses his [[Power-Enhancing Kick Shoes]] and kicks the controller into the plane, blowing it up.

Conan, Ayumi, Genta and Mitsuhiko escape in time. When Conan looks at the flames created by the exploding plane, he realises that the bomb was actually filled with plastic explosives and that this was a serious incident.

As he goes home, his phone rings again and someone says there is going to be another bomb waiting for him.

}}

Conan locates the second bomb and only just about gets it to a deserted place before it blows up. He is knocked back by the blast and hits a tree, falling unconscious.

Conan wakes up in hospital and Inspector Megure informs everyone that there has been another bomb threat, this time somehow related to the train system. The threat carried another cryptic hint, "X the XX".
Agasa says the culprit could have a grudge to settle with Shinichi and Megure agrees. They try to remember Shinichi's most famous cases to see if that provides any hint to the bomber's identity.

Shinichi was called by Megure to help investigations.

<spoiler>Shinichi said the evidence didn't prove that Kohei was driving when the accident occurred and that he could be covering for his father, '''Mayor Okamoto'''. The evidence would support this.</spoiler>
Conan figures out the hint- the bombs are located '''between''' the '''rail tracks''' ('''X''' the '''XX''') based on the bomber's other hints to keep the trains going above 60 km/h and that the bombs would explode at sunset. They realise the bombs are using solar power to reset their timers. As sunset approaches, the police help navigate the trains off the tracks and are able to safely recover all five bombs.

Megure and Shiratori, together with Conan and Kogoro, go to question Teiji Moriya.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>Conan figures out that the famous architect '''Teiji Moriya''' has been the bomber all along. He was driven to this due to his obsession with symmetry. His plan was to blow up his older, less symmetrical buildings and replace them with symmetrical structures (all of the bomb targets were either at or near buildings he designed). His hatred for Shinichi is due to the fact that because of him, Mayor Okamoto(who supported his "Perfect Nishita Town") failed to become Nishita Town's governor, and his building plan was stopped. With his crimes exposed, Moriya attempts to detonate the bombs inside his house, but is stopped when Conan reveals that he removed the batteries earlier when he planted some fake evidence (Moriya's disguise outfits) to lure him into spilling the beans. However, Moriya taunts the group that he has '''one more''' place that he wants to destroy.

| description = A large amount of bombs were planted throughout the building to destroy Moriya's "ultimate disgrace", and some of the explosions begin to seal all the entrances. Since the last and most gigantic explosion will occur at 0:03, it's now up to Ran to disarm the bomb by herself.
}}

[[File:Movie1g Gallery.png|thumb|200px|Conan contacts Ran (using his tie to mimic his Shinichi voice) and tells her that she must find and disarm the bomb.]]
Several bombs are revealed to be in the mall where Ran is. They explode and many civilians get trapped in the building. Conan (who enters the building after the first explosion) contacts Ran (using his tie to mimic his Shinichi voice) and tells her that she must find and disarm the last and largest bomb. Ran finds the box with the bomb. Conan, who is now separated from Ran by a damaged door, guides her through cutting various wires using plans left by Moriya. Ran is down to 2 wires, a red one and a blue one. The plans do not include any instructions regarding these two wires. If the wrong one is cut, it would result in the bomb detonating.

Conan loses hope, since this means that there's almost no way to keep the bomb from exploding, and tells Ran to do as she likes, since they are going to die together at this rate. Conan is then found by rescue workers and taken out of the building while realizing then the red wire is booby-trapped. However, Ran can no longer hear Conan's instructions, so he believes her to be in trouble. To his surprise, Ran cuts the '''blue wire''' and saves everyone. Conan asks Ran why she didn't cut the red wire (her lucky color). She replies that she didn't cut because she didn't want to sever the red string of fate between her and Shinichi.

The movie ends with Conan remarking that there is no "red string", and mentions that it's because "it's no use... as long as I'm Conan".</spoiler>

Leon Lowe, a criminal behavior psychologist, meet Sherilyn Tan, a lawyer who is also Makoto's sponsor at Singapore Marina Bay Sands Hotel restaurant. Later, at the shopping center, Sherilyn is found stabbed. A series of explosion then happened. The police later found Kaitou Kid's card, covered with blood, at the lift where Sherilyn was. At The Singapore's Merlion Will Spurt Blood spewing out of its muzzle.

In the meantime, [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]], [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], and [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]] have come to Singapore to cheer on the strongest karateka with a streak of 400 consecutive victories, [[Makoto Kyogoku]], who is fighting in a karate tournament held there. [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]], who doesn't have a passport and can't travel overseas, was supposed to stay at home. He begs for [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] to give him the antidote for him to transform to Shinichi, but she refuses.

Later that night, while Conan goes out for a walk, Kid, disguised as Ran, sneaks up behind Conan. Conan notices her, but then gets captured. Conan, realizing he is trapped in a suitcase, uses a pen to poke the zipper and he promptly gets out. Looking around, he realizes that he is in Singapore. Conan also realizes his body color got darker.

Conan tries to look around for Ran, but notices [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]], who is really Kid in disguise, is here as well. Shinichi/Kid makes brief talk with Ran and Sonoko, and then goes over to Conan. Kid tells Conan about his mission and the sapphire. The task is a bit special, so he bought Conan over to help him. Conan refuses, but Kid tells him how he transported him over, and that he will not be able to get back to Japan, gets his glasses, wristwatch and clothes, amongst others unless Conan helps Kid.

At this moment, Ran finds Shinichi and notices Conan. Ran, who doesn't realize who he is, asks him his name and he improvises the name Arthur Hirai. Meanwhile, Sonoko texts for Ran to meet her at a place. She is texting Makoto as well when Reijiro Nakatomi and his bodyguards pass by in her path. Sonoko argues with Reijiro, who is surprised by her attitude, but then Makoto comes and defeats all of Reijiro's bodyguards. Reijiro quickly escapes.

The group and Arthur briefly talk under a bridge. Makoto tells them that because his sponsor Sherilyn died, he cannot fight the final round in the karate tournament. Sonoko then agrees to be his sponsor.

As they walk back to the hotel, Rishi Ramanathan approaches them. He asks Kogoro to solve a case for him, but Kogoro refuses as he is on vacation. Shinichi/Kid tells him the benefits of becoming friends with a reserve police officer, benefits that Kogoro likes the most, so he agrees. Rishi then shows him Kid's notice.

Meanwhile, at a villa, Hezli Jamaluddin assures that he will beat Makoto in the tournament.

Rishi and the group arrive at the villa. Rishi explains to Kogoro about the sapphire, mentioning the gem is in the basement. They go downstairs, and Zhon Han Chen arrives as well.

Leon enters the safe room with his fingerprints, showing the group its impenetrable security. He fumbles with the computer, and one of the safe boxes comes down from near the ceiling. The sapphire, along with the karate belt, is then shown to the group. When nobody was looking, Kid takes out an invisible marker and marks the particular safe. When he finished, he shook hands with Leon, promising to protect the safe and gaining Leon's fingerprint.

Chen organized a world karate tournament to decide who will get the jewel, which was stored at Lowe's hyper-security vault, but Kaitou Kid had different plans. He will steal it, and by any means.
}}

That night, Kid flies down to the villa and proceeds his heist. He bypasses all the guards, security cameras, and hidden lasers. Kid unlocks the safe room with Leon's fingerprint that he retrieved earlier, finds the particular safe box, and prepares to steal the sapphire. However, he is then confronted by Leon, who was waiting for Kid in the safe room. The two make a brief conversation, while Jamaluddin sneaks up from behind. Kid manages to dodge his attack, but then Leon shoots Kid with a stun gun. Leon and Jamaluddin leave the safe room, with Kid unconscious.

All the safe boxes in the safe room are suddenly covered with protective metal, and the room shrinks in size. Water rises from the bottom of the safe room, which was intended to drown Kid. He however escapes to ground level. A guard spots him and the alarm sounds. Kid escapse all of the guards, but as he is about to escape, Makoto shows up to fight him. As Makoto is about to defeat Kid, a soccer ball rockets towards him from nowhere. Kid manages to escape while Makoto is distracted by the ball. From atop a building, Conan checks out the scene with his gadgets. The soccer ball was kicked by Conan.

Kid picks up Conan and tells him the situation. For many years, Leon Lowe, a criminal behavior psychologist, had been aiming for the legendary secret treasure sapphire buried in the seabed for a purpose. However, when he was so close to retrieving it, Zhon Han Chen found the sapphire. Someone may have hinted the location of the sapphire. Leon also had a lawyer, Sherilyn Tan, but they broke their relationship. So Sherilyn decided to become Makoto's sponsor, so Jamaluddin could not win the tournament. If Jamaluddin did, then the sapphire would then belong to Leon. Thus Sherilyn was killed. The police are suspicious of Leon, but he wasn't on the list of suspects. They think Kid could be the killer, since there was a Kid card found on the elevator. Kid then brings Conan back to the hotel.

Meanwhile, in a pub, Kogoro is drinking when Rachel Cheung comes and gives him a business card, telling him to meet her at the sports center tomorrow.

The next day, the group goes to watch the Zhonan Cup. Jamaluddin defeats all of his opponents. Kid says he won't make a move if the sapphire goes to Makoto. Makoto then arrives and fights his first match. He immediately punches his opponent out of the arena. Ran gets a call from Kogoro, who cannot enter the stadium. Rishi comes over and lets him in. He decides to take them to view the safe. Shinichi/Kid finds this as another opportunity to observe the security enforcements and steal the sapphire.

Rishi tells them, the password to the safe changes every 10 minutes, and is only sent to Inspector Mark Aidan, Rishi and Leon's cell phones. Rishi explains that the safe room seem empty but actually the floor is equipped with weight sensors and the ceiling is equipped with security cameras. The safe room is surrounded by police as well. Suddenly, Kogoro remembers the card Rachel gave to him at the pub. Conan tells him that it’s Leon’s card, on the back which writes for him to meet at the stadium’s exit 3 at 3 pm. It’s almost 3 pm, so Kogoro and Arthur rush over. Kid, meanwhile, has found a way to steal the sapphire.

Meanwhile, Makoto is in his changing room. Leon enters, congratulating him on the match today. He jokingly asks him to be his bodyguard. Makoto proceeds to leave, but then Leon gets serious: he asks why Makoto’s fist is existent. He says his fist will lead to others, including loved ones, suffering. Leon proceeds to say good luck and leaves the room. Sonoko enters and takes Makoto out for lunch. Ran decides to stay because Shinichi/Kid wants to guard the safe.

Outside of the sports center, Inspector Aidan is talking to his guards when Rachel accidentally bumps into him. They apologize to each other and Rachel continues on her way. She then receives a text message. She walks back to Aidan and apologizes one more time, while slipping the phone into his pocket no one noticed. Rachel then goes the safe entrance, and tells the guards that Aidan is calling them, and that she can guard the safe in the meantime. They agree.

Kid, disguised as Rachel, proceeds to his heist. He attaches a device showing the safe and altering the security cameras, and grapples into the room. As he proceeds to cut the glass surrounding the sapphire, Rachel's body falls out, surprising Kid. The alarm sounds and Kid has to but escape. Before that, however, he notices that Rachel wrote something with her blood, but he doesn't have time to check. The safe door is closing. He escapes the safe room at the last second. Guards rush from one hallway. Kid backs off and discards them with a card gun. Aidan and his officers surround him. Kid shoots a grappling hook in Mark's direction, bypassing him and his officers. They stumble into a mess.

Meanwhile, Arthur and Kogoro are waiting for Rachel to come. They then notice an alarm in the sports center, and rush there, thinking Kid has made his move. Kid escapes the pursuing officers at the stadium and flies away. He happens to pass by Arthur and Kogoro Suddenly, Rishi arrives, telling the two to rush to the safe room.

Aidan has not given up yet. He commands his officers to give chase. Kid lands on a small street, thinking he has escaped the police. Suddenly, officers arrive and before Kid can take his card gun out, they shoot him.

Rishi tells Kogoro about Rachel's dead body. Arthur mentions that Kogoro scheduled to meet with Rachel at the exit, but she went to send a message to Aidan before that. He notices that Rachel wrote a few words with blood: "SHE".

Kid, after being shot, lays down behind a building by the pier.

Sonoko and Makoto had just finished eating lunch. As they prepare to go somewhere else, a burly man knocks into her and drops his lunch. He blames Sonoko for the incident, but Makoto stops him and they fight. While Makoto fights him and his gang, Sonoko runs to a nearby police car. Two police officers fell out from the vehicle, unconscious, and the car crashes into Sonoko. Makoto rushes over and realizes what Leon told him earlier was true.

At the Singapore General Hospital, Leon arrives and sends a bouquet to Sonoko. He then tells Makoto that the gods are testing him, and he is not ready yet. Leon gives Makoto a wristband. Should the wristband break, he will gain the power. Should he use his fists before the wristband breaks, the bad will happen.

Kid dresses his wounds behind a building, the police thought he was dead so they stopped searching for him, while he talks to Arthur. He gives back Conan's gadgets and flies away.

While Rishi is preparing to go home, he sees Arthur alone. Arthur asks if he could stay at Rishi's house for the night. Rishi agrees.
Rishi logs on to his computer to study the info Mark gave him. Arthur shoots him with his Stun Gun Wristwatch and proceeds to check all the information Rishi gathered.

Leon and Jamaluddin meet with Eugene Lim at a small pier. Kid takes this chance to take photos of Leon and Eugene.

The next day, Jamaluddin is seen to defeat all his opponents and proceed to the final round. However, Makoto resigns to stay with Sonoko. He is afraid that the thugs will attack them again, and he cannot use his fist. Sonoko is angry and tells him to leave.

Arthur meets up with Shinichi and reveals the information he found on Rishi's computer yesterday night.

According to a witness, Sherilyn Tan indeed fell in the shopping mall, but she could have been stabbed in an elevator in Tower 3. The murderer chose to kill her in an elevator, because she would have nowhere to run. Leon had booked both his and Sherilyn's rooms. When the incident happened, many people witnessed Leon to be in another elevator. The police confirmed that he was not at the crime scene when it happened, so they cleared him from the list of suspects. Leon was carrying a piece of luggage, but it was empty. He was just retrieving the luggage from a shipment, which was confirmed as well. Kid's notice on the elevator had been stuck there with fake blood, and Rachel was killed in an attempt to frame Kid. The guards could not have moved Rachel's body into the safe room because they could easily activate the sensors or get caught by the security cameras. Thus Leon is the most suspicious individual as he has access to the safe.

Leon could have forced Makoto to resign and not fight the tournament, so Jamaluddin could win and the sapphire would belong to Leon. Conan asks why, and Kid shows him a photo of Eugene. Conan asks Haibara to search up the identity of the man.

Leon sees Jamaluddin win the finals. He then has flashback when he explained to Zhon and other council members about his plan of building a new city. Zhon and the rest laugh him off, but Leon has not given up.

Meanwhile, Eugene and his pirates take over an oil ship.

Leon meets with Nakatomi and tells him his plan: to rebuild the whole city. Nakatomi can only but agree.

Arthur and Shinichi find Kogoro at a pub. Arthur takes a gold Nakatomi coin out of Kogoro's passport holder and runs away. They watch a news report of Nakatomi visiting Singapore. Arthur gets a call from Haibara, who has found the identity of the man, Eugene Lim. Arthur asks Haibara to search for all Nakatomi ships nearby the pier and their routes. She reports back that there are two cargo ships and one oil ship nearby. However, the oil ship is not on its planned route. Arthur then asks for Haibara to send the information of that ship to him.

Arthur explains to Shinichi how the gathered clues can be put together: "SHE" can also refer to a ship, and the Nakatomi coin refers to a Nakatomi ship. Eugene has hijacked a Nakatomi ship, with the agreement of Nakatomi himself.

The two decide to call Rishi and tell him the situation.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>
Zhon Han Chen found the sapphire and decided to award it to the winner of the karate tournament, but Leon wanted the sapphire, so he sent Jamaluddin to win the tournament and retrieve the sapphire. However, he had to face Makoto, who had Sherilyn as his sponsor. Thus Leon had to kill Sherilyn. Leon was in a different elevator when the crime happened, which created his alibi. The killer is indeed '''Leon Lowe''', while '''Rachel Cheung''' was his accomplice. Since Sherilyn's room was very high up, she had to take a second elevator at 34F to go to the ground level. While she was walking to another elevator, Rachel dragged her to her own bedroom and Sherilyn was killed there. Leon put Sherilyn's body in his suitcase and headed downstairs. Meanwhile, Rachel, disguised as Sherilyn, took another elevator downstairs. She had a magic fake knife in her back that raised the minute she walked with Sherlyn's blood on it. She pretended to stumble and fall into a civilian. It was then that Leon activated the bombs, which caused the explosion and blackout. Leon then takes a picture of dead "Sherilyn". Rachel then gets up and takes off her disguise. Leon takes the real Sherilyn's body out of the suitcase and lays it in the exact position. Rachel was shocked by Leon's plan, so she wanted to ask Kogoro for help. Leon knew this and killed her, trying to blame Kid.

Arthur receives the infomation from Haibara. He deducts that if the ship continues on its altered route, it will crash into Marina Bay. Leon wants the pirates to crash the oil ship into the city, destroying everything in the process so he can rebuild the city according to his plans.

Rishi wonders how Leon may have found the pirates, who are scattered all over the world. Arthur explains that the lions spewing bloody water would have made it to the headlines, which would attract their attention. Rishi thinks they do not have enough time to explain everything to the police so he can only but call Zhon for help.

Later that night, Ran prepares to watch a water fountain show.

Meanwhile, Arthur and Shinichi wait atop a bridge. Arthur suddenly gets an update of the location of the oil ship: it is definitely going to crash into the hotel, and it is already very close.

Arthur desperately runs back to the hotel and tries to call Ran, but she does not respond. A few passerbys on the pier spot the ship, and more people gather to see. The ship breaks open the dam and water floods into the pier.

Everyone by the pier and in the hotel panic and try to run away. Ran calls Kogoro and realizes that he is at a pub on the rooftop, not aware of the situation.

Makoto knocks on Sonoko's door and tells her to leave the hotel. She refuses.

Arthur and Shinichi cannot reach the hotel dues to the crowd. Shinichi decides to transform back to Kid and fly over there.

On the hotel rooftop, Leon, Nakatomi, and Hezli discover Kogoro in his Sleeping Kogoro state. Leon activates a bomb, destroying a building in the city. He is confident of his plan, when '''Rishi Ramanathan''' walks over and points a gun at them.

A heavily armed team raids and stops the oil ship. Eugene and his men flee.

On the rooftop, Nakatomi begs for Rishi to not to shoot him Rishi opens fire, but does not hit him. Leon is surprised Rishi would do such a thing, and commands Jamaluddin to fight Rishi. He refuses, saying that he was hired only to fight Makoto. Without anything else, Leon protects himself with the sapphire in a container, promising to hand it over to him. Rishi does not care about the sapphire and prepares to kill Leon, but is stopped by Kid. He ties up Rishi.

Ran tries to go to the rooftop. Eugene and his men trail behind.

On the street, the police try to hold back the pirates, who are advancing towards to hotel. Another building in the city is destroyed.

Arthur and Kid confront Rishi. Arthur had been testing Rishi earlier and noticed that he was lying. One instance was that Rishi stated Leon could escape on a plane to another country while the destruction took place. However, Leon was a confident person and would stay nearby to verify his plan. Rishi wanted to avenge Nakatomi for his father's death. He found details of the sapphire while researching an oceanography book, but Leon knew about this and teamed up with Nakatomi to kill him. Rishi's father was struck by Nakatomi's personal boat a few years ago, when he jumped into the water to save a drowning person. Furthermore, Rishi pointed out that Leon defended Nakatomi when questioned by the police, to which Nakatomi gets frightened.

Rishi finishes his talk and Kogoro wakes up. Ran arrives on the rooftop, but is surrounded by the pirates. The pirates take over and hold Arthur, Kid, Kogoro, Jamaluddin and Nakatomi hostage. Leon concludes his plan has failed and handed the sapphire over to Eugene. However, he instead unties Rishi and holds Leon hostage.

Pirates outside of the building siege the bay. The police attempt to fight back.

Makoto breaks open Sonoko's room door and escapes with her, followed by pirates.

Back on the rooftop, Kid suddenly drops smoke bombs, which quickly spread. Ran and Kogoro take advantage of this and defeat many of the pirates, then run away. Arthur activates his gadgets and join the fight as well. Meanwhile, Makoto tries to fight the pirates. However, he cannot use his fists because the wristband has not broken yet. Makoto and Sonoko manage to escape. Arthur backs away from the fight on the rooftop and plunges down the hotel. Fortunately, he is saved by Kid. They discover that the pirates are launching rockets to destroy more of the city. The pirates attempt to shoot him down, but fail. Makoto reaches the rooftop. Arthur tells Kid that if he can break Makoto's wristband with his card gun, Makoto can use his fists again. Kid swoops in to shoot his card.

The card successfully cuts the wristband. Makoto suddenly goes and defeats most of the pirates. Jamaluddin decides to face Makoto in a duel, while a few pirates watch. Meanwhile, Ran and Kogoro face more pirates. Arthur jumps down and creates a furniture inferno that knocks out all the pirates in the way. Kid grapples Eugene's container holding the sapphire. Makoto fights Jamaluddin. Eugene commands the rocket launcher to shoot Kid down, but he shoots a flying Kid dummy, which causes a giant explosion. Kid dives down from behind and ties him up.

The explosion sets most of the rooftop on fire and the roof begins to slide off. Makoto backs off and ties Sonoko to his back. Makoto and Jamaluddin fight their final round. Makoto defeats him. They get serious and the rooftop will fall into the ocean. Everyone can only but to hold on.

The rooftop falls into the ocean and creates a giant wave that gulps up a bridge. Rain falls, putting out the fires. Leon, who awakes from being unconscious, sees the sapphire land right in front of him. Kid decided to give it to him. Sonoko takes off Makoto's band-aid and realizes that it contained a photo of Sonoko and Makoto. Rishi awakes as well and asks Arthur who he really is: Conan Edogawa, detective.

In the mid-credits, Kogoro, Shinichi, Ran and Sonoko are seen in an almost empty Boeing 747 from Japan Airlines while Makoto continue his journey to America. A TV lit on a channel called NNC shows the commented arrest of Lowe, Jamaluddin, Ramanathan, Nakatomi, Lim and his Pirates in Southeast Asia by Aidan and his subordinates. Another report shows Marina Bay Sands being rebuilt with the collaboration of the Suzuki Group while it showed [[Jirokichi Suzuki]] with his singaporean associates.

In the post-credits, Kogoro, Sonoko, Ran, Shinichi, and Conan are returning from the Tokyo International Airport Haneda, when Ginzo Nakamori and his team confront Shinichi, who is still Kid in disguise. In the confusion, Conan gets out of the luggage, goes to Professor Agasa and Haibara, and puts on new clothes. Ran discovers that she is holding a fake hand and walks over to them as the police chase Kid. Ran is glad that she can see Conan again.</spoiler>

** <spoiler> This marks the first time that a special guest voiced a murder victim. Incidentally, the other special guest voices the killer.</spoiler>
* [[Gosho Aoyama]] originally planned to have an allusion to [[Aoko Nakamori]] with the blue sapphire in the movie, but refrained from it, thinking people wouldn't notice it.<ref>[[Lets Talk with Gosho Aoyama Day#2020]] 
Q: In the director's interview of the 2019 movie (Fist of Blue Sapphire), he talked about how you said, after the movie was finished "It was the blue sapphire so maybe I should've put hints of Aoko there"; if you had done that, how would've it been like? 
Aoyama: Ah... See, in the end he'd return the blue sapphire to him. And when he did he did so, saying he didn't need it, he'd said "I've got a better sapphire"... 
(Applause from the audience) 
Aoyama: Huh? You wanted me to actually do that? (laughs) 
Questioner: Yes! 
Aoyama: Really!? (laughs) That for real? Well, I thought you wouldn't catch (the reference) so that's why I didn't (laughs) What. So you'd actually welcomed it? Well, imagine it within your minds (laughs)

The {{nihongo|'''Black Organization'''|黒の組織|Kuro no Soshiki}} serves as the main antagonist in the series. It is a secret criminal syndicate with a hidden objective. To achieve that goal, they commit various crimes to maintain its secrecy, remove obstacles, and gather funding and resources for its mysterious research projects. The members of the organization are given code names based on alcoholic beverages. The head is [[Renya Karasuma]] and the first members to appear were [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]], who were responsible for transforming [[Shinichi Kudo]] into a child with the enigmatic drug [[APTX 4869]]. They are the deadly enemies of [[Conan Edogawa]].

== Members ==
=== Current ===
==== Executive members ====
* '''[[Renya Karasuma]]''': The primary antagonist of the series. Thought to be dead, but is still alive at an age of over 140-year-old. Head of the Black Organization, he is the man at the center of it all, respectfully referred to as "that person" (ano kata) by lower ranked members of the Black Organization.
* '''[[Rum]]''': The second main antagonist of the series. Second in charge of the Black Organization, he has the left eye artificial. He is actually disguised as Kanenori Wakita.
* '''[[Gin]]''': A high ranking executive official who seems to specialize in coordinating deals and assassinations. He is one of the most frequently recurring Black Organization characters. He is shown to be highly intelligent, lethal, and very acute. His long silver hair and sweeping trench coat give him a distinctive appearance. He forced the drug [[APTX 4869]] on Shinichi.
* '''[[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 Edogawa|Conan]] (whom she knows to be Shinichi) 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.

==== Other members ====
* '''[[Vodka]]''': Managerial secretary of the Black Organization<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> as Gin's partner, he is another frequently recurring 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.
* '''[[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 is Chianti's partner and who has been seen to take orders from Gin. His speech is characterized by short phrases with many pauses.

=== Spies for other organizations ===
* '''[[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.
* '''[[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]]''': An operative specializing in deduction and intelligence gathering skills. His true name is Rei Furuya, but he goes by Tooru Amuro in public. He was initially dispatched to look for Sherry, but spent more of that time investigating Shuichi Akai whom he hates for killing his partner Scotch. He works for the Japanese Secret Police.

=== 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.
* '''[[Pisco]]''': An elderly executive agent who was also the chairman of a car company. He was killed by Gin 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.
* '''[[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.
* '''[[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.
* '''[[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 committed suicide before the Black Organization manages to reveal his true identity.

=== Former ===
* '''[[Shiho Miyano|Sherry]]''' ([[Ai Haibara]]/Shiho Miyano): A high ranking biochemist who worked on [[APTX 4869]]. She was scheduled to be executed when she boycotted her work because her sister Akemi was murdered. Shiho took an APTX 4869 pill she had smuggled in with her, with an intention to commit suicide, but instead shrunk to her 6-7 year old body. She then escaped. She has been living with Professor Agasa and working on an antidote to the APTX 4869, in order to restore Conan to his actual 'Shinichi body'.
* '''[[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. He is currently in custody for murders he has committed, mostly in fear of the Black Organization sending agents after him. In the end, the court sentences him to death.

== Organization structure and divisions ==
There are many divisions in the Black Organization which are roughly grouped into three categories: {{nihongo|Internal Division|内部活動部隊|Naibu Katsudō-butai}}, {{nihongo|External Division|外部活動部隊|Gaibu Katsudō-butai}}, and {{nihongo|General Oversight|全体監視役|Zentai Kanshi-yaku}}. 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>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 organization 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> Agents from outside manga canon are italicized.

=== 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>
* [[Rum]]: Second-in-command<ref>File 906 pg 3</ref>
* [[Gin]]
* [[Vermouth]]: The boss' favorite
* [[Pisco]]<ref>[[:File:ConanDrill239.jpg|Conan Drill page 239]]</ref>

=== Codenamed agents ===

== 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 received funding after being unable to find a sponsor that would pay for them to research their theories. Tequila bribed Hideaki Nakajima with a large amount of money for the world's best programmers. [[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|right|200px|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. The host dummy in the Sunset Manor case wears a frightening phantom's purple hood with only two eye slits, just like the members of the KKK.</ref> The Black Organization members all tend to wear black outfits, which Akemi says is intentional and supposed to resemble [[Crow|crows]]. For an as of yet unrevealed reason, nearly all the Black Organization's members (with the exception of the 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 ''[[Wikipedia: 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<ref>Akemi Miyano, Suguru Itakura, Yasuteru Domon, Mouri Kogoro, Scar Akai</ref>, fire and bombs<ref>Unnamed woman from the Shinkansen Bomb Case, the Bell Tree Express, Kir in Hyde Central Hospital</ref>, and poisons<ref>Shinichi Kudo, the giant of the Akemi's gang, various APTX 4869 victims, Shigehiko Nomiguchi, maybe the Jazz club man.</ref> seem to be their preferred techniques. Sometimes the organization attempts to disguise their murders as accidents or suicides.<ref>Shigehiko Nomiguchi</ref> To this end, [[APTX 4869]] was deployed as a poison because it is forensically difficult to detect.<ref>Manga [[Volume 1]], File 1 (001), "The Heisei Holmes"</ref> 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.<ref>Starling family murders, Shuichi Akai's "murder"</ref> Sometimes they will time their crimes so the blame will fall on another party instead, confusing the investigation.<ref>Yasuteru Domon</ref> If a meeting place or asset of theirs is compromised, the Black Organization typically thoroughly destroys it before it can be investigated properly.<ref>Daiko Building ("Cocktail" Bar), Shiho's Pharmaceutical Company</ref>

Their supplies of explosives and firearms are very extensive.

=== 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 ===
The Organization is large enough to quickly dispatch field investigative teams of at least a dozen members<ref>[[The Girl from the Black Organization and the University Professor Murder Case|Episode 129]] where the Kudo house is investigated, Vodka surrounding Itakura's meeting point, The team watching Gin and Kir's meetup location is FBI vs Org.</ref>. The members of the Organization are also demographically varied, including foreigners and natives, men and women, teenagers<ref>Sherry</ref> and elderly.<ref>Pisco at 71, old man from [[Clash of Red and Black|episode 502]]</ref>

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.

=== Investigative ability ===
The Black Organization has a remarkable amount of resources for a criminal group, more than any other opponent of Conan's shown so far. Their financial resources, technology, and manpower seems to be on par with or even superior to the that of the [[FBI]] investigation team sent to Japan to investigate them, but less than the Japanese police. The Black Organization has enough manpower at their disposal to thoroughly monitor and investigate even minor threats or to observe all the avenues of entry to a crowded meeting place in the middle of a city. However, the organization is nowhere close to omniscient; Shinichi, who is supposed to be dead, was able to participate in several public cases that were successfully hushed up by the police, and leave the country with his passport without detection.

=== Gadgets ===
:''[[Minor gadgets#Black Organization|Main article: Black Organization's Gadgets]]''
The Black Organization is technologically sophisticated and their equipment rivals even that of the infiltrating FBI. In the manga they have access to a wide variety of firearms and ammunition, [[vehicles]], theatrical supplies, and large amounts of various explosives. Bourbon and Vermouth even planned to use a helicopter as part of one of their plans. The Black Organization's arsenal also includes various specialized gadgets.

== History ==
{{main|Black Organization timeline}}
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 ===
:''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 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. 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 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. 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>

=== Quotes ===

=== Speculation about the Black Organization's goal ===
==== Immortality/Anti-Aging ====
[[File:EP223-guestbook.jpg|thumb|right|200px|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. Gosho has said that immortality is not the ultimate goal of the Black Organization<ref name="April2014Interview">Leaked interview notes from the May issue of the magazine 「ダ・ヴィンチ」 (da Vinci) with the fans/reporters/whatever, leaked April 15, 2014 
Source: http://ddnavi.com/news/191132/ 
黒ずくめの組織の目的とはナニ？　APTX4869の作用から考えると、不老不死が怪しいのでは……。 
Please! Please, let me ask 2 more questions! What is the BO’s goal? Going by the APTX4869, I would think immortality… 
【青山】「違います。確かにそう思っちゃうよね。今ね、組織の中では大変なことが起こっていますよ」 
That’s wrong. It’s true that you’d think that, isn’t it? You see, right now, something really big is happening within the organization.</ref>; however, achieving immortality or anti-aging might be an important step to reach the true end.

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 189 - The Endangered Ball|Volume 19, File 9 (189), Page 6: The Endangered Ball]]; [[The Stadium Indiscriminate Threatening Case|Episodes 130-131: The Stadium Indiscriminate Threatening Case]]</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'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|Professor 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.

== Plot timeline ==
{{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:

* '''[[The Shinkansen's Bomb Case|Episode 5]]''': The episode replaces the two men who shrunk Conan with lookalikes Ueda and Shimoda, 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 [[Game Company Murder Case|episode 54]]. Conan recognizes their code names when Tequila speaks to them, yet Conan never learned their code names in the anime version of events.

* '''[[The Strange Person Hunt Murder Case|Episode 13]]''': 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 [[The Black Organization: One Billion Yen Robbery Case|episode 128]], 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 Kuroba]] 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 [[Wikipedia: 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 ==
[[File:Demon.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan against the demon.]]
* This crime organization enshrouded in mystery, and even other unrelated case, is sometimes introduced with crows, the creepy bird which is also depicted on their head's crest. The Japanese believe black crows carry souls to the beyond.
* While Conan chases down leads on their organization, he's constantly confronted by difficult cases. In the [[The Last Wizard of the Century]] introduction sequence, one night running on a Greek palace ruins, he is suddenly stuck behind by a huge red demon with evil aura, of course the Black Organization, who moves among numerous yellow pieces, that represent all minor cases.
* In the English dub, Gin is renamed "Melkior" and Vodka is renamed "Kaspar". In the English manga, these are explained as specific brands of the relevant drinks.
* Vermouth is the only living member of the organization who knows that Ai Haibara is Shiho Miyano and Conan Edogawa is Shinichi Kudo. Pisco discovered Haibara's identity and 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.
* The Black Organization members often call someone who poses an existential threat to the group a "Silver Bullet". Vermouth believes that Shinichi is the true Silver Bullet. However, everyone else thinks Shuichi Akai was their greatest threat.
* So far, the youngest member still in the Black Organization is Kir at age 27. Sherry was 18 when she defected, and her sister, Akemi Miyano, was in her mid twenties when she was killed by Gin.

'''{{nihongo|Jubei Yagyu|柳生十兵衞|Yagyū Jūbei}}''', also '''{{nihongo|Yagyu Jubei Mitsuyoshi|柳生十兵衞三厳|Yagyū Jūbei Mitsuyoshi}}''', is a recurring character of [[Gosho Aoyama]]'s second manga ''[[Yaiba]]''. He is directly based on the [[Wikipedia: Yagyū Jūbei Mitsuyoshi|historical samurai of the same name]].

== Background ==
Jubei Yagyu is a historical samurai with a mysterious past and master of the Yagyu Shin Kageryuu swordfighting style, who learned under [[Musashi Miyamoto]], whom he still holds in high regard, which shows when [[Yaiba Kurogane]] tells him that he's just a perverted geezer, angering Jubei. He's usually calm and collected and doesn't want women to "interfere" with his path of the sword, but when he gets drunk, he transforms into a lecherous werewolf who calls himself "Yajirobe".

== Plot overview ==
=== ''Yaiba'' ===
Jubei Yagyuu was revived by Kumo-Otoko in a similar way to Kojiro Sasaki, but he lost him.

[[Yaiba Kurogane]] and his friends first meet Jubei Yagyu in the streets of Niigata, where he challenges Kojiro Sasaki to a duel, which he wins by Kojiro's mistake of elongating his Monohoshizao sword too much, swaying to the side when standing on top of it and crashing through the roof of the Dojo in the Mine residence. Yaiba challenges Jubei too, with Musashi slowly realizing that this Jubei is, in fact, ''the'' Jubei Yagyu he taught in the past. Yaiba manages to trick Jubei, causing him to lose, with Musashi revealing himself to him, which shocks him, because he isn't the man he once was anymore, trying to commit ritual suicide, which Yaiba and [[Sayaka Mine]] can keep him from succeeding in. Yaiba asks him whether he could be his new teacher, since he thinks that he's way stronger than Musashi. He then joins Yaiba's group.

=== ''Detective Conan'' ===
[[File:File 274 Yagyuu Juubei.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Jubei Yagyu in ''Detective Conan'', during Matasaburo's explanation.]]
==== Code Sheet Case (Manga: [[Volume 4#Code Sheet Case|36-39]], Anime: [[The Coded Map of the City Case|4]]) ====
One of the hints the [[Detective Boys]] find is a café called "Terrace Jubei", seemingly named after the historical samurai.

==== Bear Hunters Case (Manga: [[Volume 27#Bear Hunters Case|273]]-[[Volume 28#Bear Hunters Case|275]], Anime: [[Mushrooms, Bears, and the Detective Boys|212-213]]) ====
Matasaburo Saika explains the legend behind the bear's name, which is derived from the historical samurai Jubei Yagyu, who is depicted in the background during this exactly as he looked in ''Yaiba''.

== Trivia ==
* His character design was a prototype for [[Kansuke Yamato]].
* He got the fourth place in the Character Popularity Poll from [[Yaiba Volume 23]] with 1211 votes, commenting "It's a great honor..." next to it.

Talk:Next Conan's Hint

2020-08-25T14:07:35Z

Intervencion: /* Missing screenshots */ Akai also got us 262's :)

= Next Conan's Hint page Discussion =

Question to the person making this page, as well as other users: Do you think it would be a good idea to include the hints that were included for remastered versions of certain episodes in a second column ? I think some of the hints were changed slightly from their original hint on a few of them.

Example: the remastered version of episode 001 had a hint for it on the episode that aired the week before the remaster, that had the hint for episode 001 as Tropical Land.

(feel free to ignore me if you choose otherwise, I just thought I should ask) --[[User:Jimmy-kud0-tv2|Jimmy-kud0-tv2]] ([[User talk:Jimmy-kud0-tv2|talk]]) 05:47, 23 December 2015 (CET)

== Resolution/Filesize ==

Since the wiki is already slow per se, we should try to don't use bloat images. For HD episodes my idea was to upload a 1080p untouched and then, as different resolution, a 720p passed through a size reducer like [http://luci.criosweb.ro/riot/ RIOT] to make it around 100KB --[[User:Intervencion|Intervencion]] ([[User talk:Intervencion|talk]]) 14:42, 22 June 2018 (CEST)

== Sisters' Birthday Party Murder Case ==
=== File 1048 - Why Are You Crying...? ===
[[Vermouth]] disguise as [[Mary Sera|Mary]]'s husband to lure Mary out.

=== File 1049 - It's Unbelievable! ===
Vermouth feeds Mary the drug with her mouth directly, which is created by her sister. Mary then jumps into the river due to the effect of the drug being very instant. After that Mary shrinked tries to go back to [[Masumi Sera|Sera]].

=== File 1050 - Apprentice & Wizard ===
<spoiler>The culprit is '''Mitomu Kushiyama'''. The motive is that he has been blackmailed by Hanasaki. He was the one who stole Rumi's half-eaten food and drinks, and had been caught by Hanasaki. He made the dry marker functional again by using nail polish. He poisoned his own cake piece and then bended the strawberry on Hanasaki's slice. He knew that Hanasaki would be irritated by the bended strawberry to want another slice, but due to a recent scandal, he didn't want to make a scene and switched the slice secretly with Kushiyama's.

Mary's shrinking happened around the time of [[Holmes' Revelation]] arc. Mary and Sera witnessed Conan proclaiming himself as Holmes' apprentice during Minerva's match on TV, and remembered the same proclamation of Shinichi ten years ago at the beach. The two realized that Conan was Shinichi, and that despite being shrunk, he had the ways of returning as Shinichi to board a plane to London. Mary ordered Masumi to get closer to him in order to get the antidote.

Sera managed to steal the box, but the antidote isn't in there, as Conan put it somewhere else, predicting Sera's movement.</spoiler>

=== File 1053 - Light ===
It turns out that the three men are searching for a meteorite. The film that Mitsuhiko saw on Kanou's phone was a report of a falling meteorite. In the farm office Wakasa, Haibara and Genta finds papers proving that the late owner was reseaching meteorites. They find traces of ink from a broken yellow highlighter and traces of a hiking boot stepped on it. Conan remembers that the three men where all wearing hiking boots. They also find a pallasite meteorite that is broken in halves due to having been throwing onto the floor. Haibara suspects that the farm owner, Gisuke, may have attempted to fake a meteorite due to his finanscial situation, but Genta notices a stack of magnets on the table and wonders why have them, if the owner knew that they wouldn't stick to the pallasite meteorite. Kazami guess that Gisuke entrusted the real meteorite to someone he thought could appraise it, but when the appraiser returned the stone with a negative result, they had a fight which ended with the yellow highlighter being dropped to the floor and stamped upon. Later Gisuke figures out that the appraiser had taken the real meteorite for himself and given back a pallasite. In despair over having been scammed, he killed himself. Conan and Amuro agrees to Kazami's theory and figures out that Umisuke locked them down, not to kill them, but to keep them out of his way so he could avenge his brother's death by killing the scammer.

Conan come up with a plan to single out the scammer to drove Gisuke to suicide.

The {{nihongo|'''Detective Boys'''|少年探偵団|Shōnen Tantei-dan}}, also known as '''The Junior Detective League''' in the English [[Funimation]] adaption, are the pre-adolescent detectives with whom [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] solves the occasional crimes in which he and his [[Teitan Elementary]] classmates stumble into.

== History ==
The Detective Boys were informally founded when [[Ayumi Yoshida]] and [[Genta Kojima]] decided to [[A Haunted Mansion Murder Case|investigate a mansion]] which was once a murder site and had been abandoned. Conan and his classmate [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya]] were drafted into accompanying the two, and the foursome entered the house. In the course of this adventure, Conan found out that the house was still inhabited by the mother and son of the murder victim; the son had killed his father in a fit of rage over his abusive behavior, and his mother had subsequently locked her own son in a dungeon beneath the house to wait until the deed's time-bar had passed. After Conan succeeded in exposing the two, they were arrested and the case was resolved.<ref>Manga Chapters 17-19, Anime [[Episode 20]]: Scary Building Case</ref>

In time, the four kept stumbling into more and more criminal cases, which were resolved thanks to Conan's deductive skills and initiative. Particularly after the case involving a sizable cache of stolen Italian gold coins,<ref>Manga Chapters 36-39: Code Sheet Case</ref> Ayumi, Genta and Mitsuhiko developed a taste for detective work and impulsively decided to become investigators themselves, mostly for fame and glory. After advertising their services in school,<ref>Manga Chapter 56: Formation! The Detective Boys</ref> they have become actively involved in many criminal cases provided by their schoolmates, though more often than not they keep accidentally coming upon such during their free-time activities. Some time later, their new classmate (and former [[Black Organization]] member) [[Ai Haibara]] was drafted into the group. Two adults also joined this group informally, namely Professor [[Hiroshi Agasa]], who provides the group with special gadgets to aid them in their adventures, and their class teacher [[Sumiko Kobayashi]], a mystery novel enthusiast who proclaimed herself their manager.

In most cases, the Detective Boys act more like aides to Conan, who is the group's (mostly undisputed) leader due to his intelligence, extensive criminal knowledge and experience. In this role they function mostly as additional pairs of eyes who provide Conan with trivial-seeming but important clues, and display little investigative brilliance or determination of their own. As the series progresses, however, the other members, particularly Ai and Mitsuhiko, have demonstrated in some cases - especially where Conan is not present or out of commission - that the Detective Boys have the potential of becoming skilled investigators in their own right. Famous cases of such include:

'''Manga''':
* Chapter 251-253: [[Volume 25#Dangerous Cave Case|Dangerous Cave Case]]
* Chapter 548-549: [[Volume 53#Kobayashi-sensei's Mystery|Kobayashi-sensei's Mystery]]
* Chapter 712-715: [[Volume 68#Kaitou Kid and the Kirin's Horn|Kaitou Kid and the Kirin's Horn]]
* Chapter 753-755: [[Volume 72#Two-Five-Two|Two-Five-Two]]
* Chapter 759-761: [[Volume 72#Wolf-Crier|Wolf-Crier]]

'''Anime''':
* Episode 182: [[The Big Investigation of the Nine Doors]] (TV Original)
* Episode 225: [[The Secret of the High Sales]] (TV Original)
* Episode 303: [[The Victim Who Came Back]] (TV Original)
* Episode 936: [[Intrigue at the Food Court]] (TV Original)

'''Movie''':
* Movie 13: [[The Raven Chaser]]
* [[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie]]

'''OVA''':
* OVA 07: [[A Challenge from Agasa! Agasa vs. Conan and the Detective Boys]]
* OVA 11: [[A Secret Order From London]]

'''Note:''' Caution must be advised for OVAs, movies and TV originals, as these are essentially non-canonical with the manga series and therefore not 100% diagnostically conclusive.

{{EndBox}}

== Relationship analysis ==
=== Family and friends ===
==== Hiroshi Agasa ====
The Detective Boys love Professor [[Hiroshi Agasa]] very much and they have a good familial relationship with each other. Professor Agasa has invented the 'Wristwatch Flashlight' and the 'Detective Boys Badge' to help them in their deductions and to contact each other in any situation that might come up.

Agasa, in turn, seems to consider the actual children of the group as surrogate grandchildren, and is willing to help them with various cases.

==== Sumiko Kobayashi ====
Sumiko Kobayashi is the current teacher of the class that the Detective Boys are in. She also proclaims herself to be their manager, much to the children's chagrin.

==== Rumi Wakasa ====
Since becoming assistant teacher in the Detective Boys' class, she has gone on a number of outings with them. She is secretly highly skilled at fighting and has protected the Detective Boys on a number of occasions. She also has very sharp deduction skills and has had to drop hints for Conan on the cases they've had together. However, there are indications that she is using the Detective Boys to her own ends.

==== Ran Mouri ====

==== Kogoro Mouri ====

== Trivia ==
* Genta refers to Conan as his apprentice in various episodes, mainly to show off to people.<ref>Anime Episode 129: The Girl from the Black Organization and the University Professor Murder Case</ref>
* In an interview, Gosho Aoyama stated that the purpose of the Detective Boys was to act as a cover for Haibara.
* The Detective Boys in ''Detective Conan'' and Nobita and his friends in ''Doraemon'' both share a lot of resemblance.
** Interestingly enough, Ai Haibara also draw parallel to Doraemon's sister Dorami, being a wise and intelligent member.

==== Part 1 ====
Ran and Sonoko invite their new classmate, Eisuke Hondou to visit Kogoro. At that moment, a client named Atsushi Misumi asks Kogoro to search for his girlfriend, Ami. Deducing from her last words, they realize Ami is waiting for Misumi at the place where they first met. They are driven by Misumi to Gunma Prefecture where they find Ami in a sealed up Nissan Fuga Y50 dead.

{{InfoBox Crime

}}

Misumi breaks into the car by using a bat and breaking through the front window and proceeds to open the door by cutting open the tape from the passenger side. They discover that Ami died from carbon monoxide poisoning and conclude it to be suicide. Conan investigates and realizes it was a murder and believes Misumi's to be the murderer. He then continues to investigate in order to find out how Misumi was able to exit the car while the doors were sealed up with gaffer tape.

==== Part 2 ====
After investigating, Conan realizes how the murder was done.

{{EndBox}}

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>Conan tranquilizes Kogoro and declares '''Atsushi Misumi''' to be the murderer. He reveals that Misumi drove Ami in that 2008 Nissan Fuga Y50 and drugged her to sleep. He then taped all the doors but made a cut along the passenger door allowing him to leave. Conan explains when Misumi broke into the car to save Ami, he only pretended to cut the passenger door open and that it was cut already. As evidence to prove he was the murderer, Conan reveals that the book in the car came out on that same day and that Misumi's fingerprints were on the cover. However, Misumi reported that his girlfriend went missing yesterday. It's revealed that the book that Misumi brought was an attempt to win Ami's love back. Misumi tells everyone that he would do anything for Ami, whether it was to take a leave from work to go on vacation with her or stay in line overnight to get a concert ticket. It was the same for the car; Ami wanted to try it out, so Misumi took out a loan to buy it for her. Unfortunately, Ami only saw Misumi as a servant than a boyfriend. Misumi found a cigarette in the car and he and Ami don't smoke, making Misumi realize that Ami was cheating on him. When Misumi confronted Ami about it, she seriously told Misumi she went out with another guy and said she had a great time. Misumi tells everyone that he regrets what he did, saying he really did love Ami, only for Kogoro (via Conan) to stop the farce. Kogoro tells Misumi that although he's not sure if Ami felt the same way about him, he was sure the love between them has long faded. Kogoro tell Misumi if he really wanted to save Ami, he would of broke the rear window and side windows carefully. But Misumi broke the front window, because the glass shards would cut Ami's face. Misumi just wanted to destroy the car and all the memories he had with her.</spoiler>

=== Situation ===
==== Aso Part ====
In a dark room, a thief is frantically looking through an office for something. When he finds it, he smiles and cuts open a teddy bear.

The next day, the Detective Boys go to Kumamoto with Ran and Kogoro for a sightseeing trip. Kumamoto is known as the capital of water for its amazing water sources, but it's also known as the country of fire for its volcanoes. The group arrives at the Aso Volcano museum, where Ran bumps into a boy, named Justin Takamori. Ran calls Justin cute, and Justin calls Ran even cuter and winks at her. He then adds tat she is in second place as his mommy, Jessica Takamori is in first place. Justin then shows the kids his stamp book of all the tourists spots he has already been to so far.

Conan and the rest then go to the Aso Ropeway Station and ride in a carrier to the Nakadake crater. Once they are done, they leave the area and as they are heading to the zoo, Ayumi spots Kumamon, a stuffed bear, and wants to get one as a souvenir. Ran says later and as they leave with Conan, Justin and his mom buy the same stuff bear. After visiting the zoo, the group go to a food court area and eat. As they eat, a man, soon to be revealed as Monkichi Kumada, puts a bag on a bench and leaves. Then a mysterious man walks up with a Kumamon bear and swaps it with the bag. Ayumi sees this and believes that the man has forgotten the bear. So she runs to the man and tries to give it back, blowing the whole investigation that was taking place. The man sees the police and throws the bag at Ayumi, taking the bear as he runs.

Conan chases after the man with the police and witnesses Justin stepping in front of his mom and colliding with the man, causing the bear to fall. The man picks up a bear and runs away as the police chase after him. At the police station, Monkichi Kumada, the creator of the Kumamon bear explains that a robbery had occurred in his office and that an important item was taken away, a flash drive full of important information. He then tells Mouri that the thief phoned him and told him that he will exchange the flash drive with 10 million yen at the park. Then Keiji Kosugi is phoned and is told that the culprit at the park had been caught, but the flash drive have not been found. Conan then realizes that the bears must have been switched when Justin and the man collided with each other and deduces that they can find Justin at places where he can get stamps and figures out where he would not be and where his next location would be.

Namie Kajiyama, and the group then heads to Aso Shrine, not able to find Justin, but learns where his next location may be. According to the tour guide at the shrine, Justin said "I want to go and see the big pig falling asleep." Namie believes that Justin may be going to the Aso Milk Farm, but Conan deduces that he will not be there. He looks at Justin's route and says that he is actually going up and that by going to the farm he will be making a U-Turn. Also if he were to go to the farm, Justin will not arrive there in time as the farm closes at 4 P.M and that it is now 3:40. Conan deduces that Justin is at Daikambo, as he did not say "the big pig", but actually "the big Buddha". Namie trusts Conan and heads over there with him. When they arrive they witness the thief trying to take the bear away from Jessica. When Justin sees this he runs over and bites the criminal. Mouri and the rest try to intervene, but the thief kidnaps Justin and drove away.

As the police with the Detective Boys, Ran and Mouri chase the criminal, they received a call that says that if they continue the boy will be killed. Thus prompting the police to stop and Conan to wonder "How did the criminal know Justin had the flash drive and where to find him?" and if someone is working with the thief. If so, who?

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The culprit for the fraud is '''Mitsuo Inoue'''. '''Jun Kouda''' was the culprit for having kidnapped Justin. He needed money because he went indebted in gambling and was threathened by criminals.

He was threatened by knife by them even if he was a policeman. The boss of Kumamon foods thought he was the one who injured Ayumi and stole data but it was in fact '''Inoue'''. Conan deduced it because on the day Kumamon Fods was broken into, Kouda was in the hospital to treat his injuries after his life-threat by tugs.The data was hidden inside a USB key plugged in the Kumamon plush that the mysterious robber had. To explain the truth, Conan tranquilizes Mouri Kogoro in his Samurai outfit before Inoue can take the plush from Ayumi. Inoue was the mastermind of the case. Inoue is stunned and asks for more evidence. First, Conan had mentioned that he talked about a failed transfer, but he weren't even there. He also knew mysteriously that Ayumi was hit with the bag and blamed Kumada for telling him those info but he couldn't because he didn't even notice the name of the injured girl that was Ayumi and not Haibara. Although he didn't mention who was Ayumi, Mitsuo still knew at first glance who was Ayumi since he checked her arm because he was hidden inside bushes at that time. After the plan failed, he had to get back as fast as possible to the CEO so, he profited of the situation and pretended to be running fast before reaching them in the room.</spoiler>

Mitsuhiko shows them a photo he took and which reveals Ran chasing after Haruna in the background and a the mysterious man. Unable to contact Ran through her phone, they discuss the probability that the man has captured Ran and the girl.

Conan reveals that the mysterious man in Genta's picture is the one who ordered Yumoto to commit the crime and reveals the mastermind culprit to be the '''Takeshi Kamachi''', the president of the museum Haruna stole from. As evidence, Conan reveals that the culprit received a stain from Genta's crab flavored ice-cream, the same stain found on Kamachi. Conan reveals that Kamachi wanted Haruna to steal the "Rainbow Child" to complete the "Rainbow" set which consists of a sculpture of a mother holding the "Rainbow Child". Kamachi confesses to the plan and reveals he needed the money to pay off his debts. Later on, Haruna is reunited with her mother and father and with Ran's persuasion, reunited as a family.</spoiler>

== Case ==
=== Situation ===
==== Part 1 ====
At night, Sato congratulates Shiratori and Takagi on a case well-resolved (even when Shiratori gives the credit to Takagi's stubborness) and brings them canned coffee as thanks. Shiratori, however, has a memory of a little girl who looks a lot like a younger Sato offering him a paper cup with flowers made out of straws, and hesitates before taking his can. Then he refuses a dinner invitation since tomorrow is his day off and he intends to do other things; Sato and Takagi leave to a ramen restaurant, and Shiratori looks at them sadly.

At the theatres, the Detective Boys run into Shiratori, who is still depressed after it has sunk in that Sato's affection is definitely being directed at Takagi. Shiratori tells the kids that he hasn't fully given up and then tells them the ''actual'' reason behind his love for Sato: he believes that he's bound to her through destiny, because of an encounter he had with her in the past. He says that when he was a little boy, once he was in a bookstore and walked into Sato as a young girl, who stood up to two thieves by herself; Shiratori helped her stop the thieves and in return received from her a drink with a paper folded ''sakura'' ring around it, made of paper straws. Before leaving, she told him why she added the ring: because these paper sakura look like the symbol of the Tokyo Police Force, which she admires very much,. That meeting is what made him desire to become a policeman instead of a lawyer.

Ai listens to this story, and she question whether that girl was actually Sato since her words sound as something too "girlish" for a tomboy like her, who is tougher than most men. Not to mention, even when Shiratori is sure that Sato is the girl from his past, in reality he didn't know her name; he's mostly going by the physical similarity and her starry-eyed admiration for the police.

Due to a mistake, Shiratori is stuck watching a movie with the children rather than the one he intended. He then runs into a young woman named Nami Kasakura, who accidentally spills his drink but quickly offers him one with paper folded sakuras, just like those from the girl from the past, which causes Shiratori to consider the possibility Kasakura was the girl instead of Sato. The kids also recognize her, since they returned her her wallet few before the start and promised to treat them to lunch as thanks. Shiratori and Kasakura seem to get on well, and Ai and Conan wonder if this will go further.

The screening itself goes without hitch, save for an incident towards the end that scares even Ai. When it's all done Shiratori apologizes for having fallen asleep in the middle of the movie, but Kasakura doesn't mind and Ayumi says it's because of work. Upon hearing that he's a police inspector, Kasakura tells Shiratori she is being stalked and asks him to investigate. She adds that she asked her boyfriend Yoshirou Soumei to stay over at her place to help her, but when they go inside her apartment, they find Soumei dead.

Takagi and Megure arrive to help Shiratori with the investigation. It's established that Soumei was killed around 2 PM, during the movie that they all went to, and that his murderer probably took Soumei's spare key and locked the apartment to try fooling the police. Megure says that the killer was most likely Kasakura's stalker, who beat Soumei to death to get him out of the way, but then he turns and says that the other possibility is that '''Kasakura herself''' killed him. Shiratori mentions how she was sitting next to him, but Megure says that the apartment is less than five minutes away by car or taxi so it's not unplausible to have her as a suspect since she could've easily pretended to go to the restroom. Having dozed off at some point, Shiratori's testimony isn't foolproof.

Takagi says he checked on Soumei's cellphone, and it has a call from around the time of his death. Kasakura admits that she got a call from him, but she cut it off since she still was in the theater. Shiratori can't confirm it, but Ayumi does since she saw something lit up and it could have been Kasakura's phone. Genta and Mitsuhiko also mention seeing Kasakura's hat-covered head, but Ai wonders if this is an all-too good alibi for her. The talk is somewhat derailed by Genta and Mitsuhiko talking about "something scary"; Kasakura mentions a specific scene of the Gamera movie - but Ai says what happened ''after'' that was the really scary deal, and Kasakura talks about it too. Her reply puzzles Conan, however.

Shiratori checks on his notepad to check on the time and the movie's length, and a small paper sakura falls off. Conan sees it but Shiratori picks it up and keeps it, then asks Takagi to go to the theater to check on other details. Once Takagi is gone, Shiratori and Megure ask Kasakura if they can check on her place, to see if the stalker left any clues or cameras around; Conan does his own search, until Megure tells him to wait in the corner. As Shiratori takes a look in a cupboard, his eyes go wide at something, but he denies finding anything when asked.

In the meantime, Ayumi is on her own doing something. Genta and Mitsuhiko ask her what's going on and she shows them she's been using the paper straw wrappers to make sakura flowers, which are just like those the "girl of destiny" and Kasakura made. In the meantime, Conan tells Ai that Kasakura said she was a big fan of movies with special effects, but has no memorabilia related to such stuff; they also discuss how, for a super popular movie showing, the seats around Kasakura and Shiratori were empty. Conan is also bothered by how easily the group became Kasakura's witnesses and concludes that Shiratori has his own thoughts about the case.

==== Part 2 ====
Megure and Shiratori can't find any actual signs of a stalker in Kasakura's apartment. Takagi cannot find evidence in the theater either, since it's extremely crowded and those who work there can't recall who left the place in the middle of the movie. Shiratori asks Takagi to check on the garbage bins that are about to be replaced and look for a specific piece of evidence that should have fingerprints and certain contents on them. Then he stops and seems to be feeling ill, but recovers and finishes the call; after that, he walks to the kitchen to wash his hands, still looking very dejected.

Ai and Conan follow Shiratori, asking him why he left out some details that could've been vital evidence. He hesitates heavily, but with some more prodding from Conan, he recovers his spirits and calls Takagi again, asking him to provide details on something which he would use as critical evidence. Conan and Ai then look at the cupboards and see ''exactly'' what made Shiratori so pale in the face.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>Megure runs a brief resume of the evidence they have gathered, pointing out at a stalker coming in and killing Soumei out of jealousy over Kasakura. Megure says the kids shouldn't stay around and, since Agasa and Kogoro aren't around, he's called their teacher over to send them home soon. Shiratori is still a little pale, the memories of the "girl of destiny" still fresh, but Conan reminds him of what he must do.

Kasakura asks for some time on her own before officially giving her declaration, but Shiratori says she should come immediately. He adds that '''Nami Kasakura''' is the culprit, and is so serious about it that Genta, Mitsuhiko, Ayumi and Megure are shocked. When Megure and then the kids say that they all saw Kasakura in the movie theater at the time of Soumei's death, Ai and Conan counter that what they really saw was Kasakura's tuque, aka her white handmade cap.

Shiratori says that Kasakura took advantage of him falling asleep and placed her tuque on him, to create her alibi by having him "impersonate" her and be seen by the kids sitting right behind him. She completed the "illusion" it by putting her open cellphone on the empty paper cup, and later using the already dead Soumei's cellphone to call and create the illusion that Soumei was calling her, which would be easy due to the dark environment of the theater and how the two adjacent seats, purchased online by Kasakura, were empty, so no one would see her "trick" up close.

Since the Detective Boys were the ones seating behind the "vital seats" and Kasakura knew it after checking it online, she went out of the way to be noticed by them: she deliberately left her wallet there, promised to treat them to lunch as "thanks" later, and planned to have them find the dead Soumei with her to use them as witnesses, adding Shiratori to the plan after Ayumi innocently told her that he was a policeman. Shiratori also says that him falling asleep was no coincidence: Kasakura deliberately bumped into him to make him drop his drink, got him a new one that she had slipped sleeping pills in, and then used him as her 'double' when the effect kicked in and he dozed off.

Kasakura tries to deflect the info off her by saying she had invited others to come with her, but they didn't come for one or another reason. When she mentions how Shiratori's drink was marked, he pulls out the tiny paper flower, which he had pulled out of the one in his real drink as a memento. Right then Takagi arrives at the department carrying a trash bag, and shows them the drink he purchased; they compare the lengths of an untouched straw wrapper and a sakura-shaped one, and determine that Kasakura also switched Shiratori cup while he was asleep to hide how there were sleeping pills in the one she gave him, ''and'' that she had several paper folded sakuras already in her cupboard, all wrapped around her tea cups and ready for use. That's what Shiratori found in his search, and later Ai and Conan saw as well.

When Kasakura dares Shiratori to get the supposed taxi driver that took her to her apartment so she could kill Soumei during the movie, Conan steps in and says that she didn't mention how there was an earthquake in the middle of the screening, which scared even someone mostly fear-proof as Ai, and which she wouldn't notice if she was in a vehicle. The kids add that Kasakura didn't know about one of the most famous moments of the movie either, one that preceded the earthquake itself, proving that she had gone out at some point.

Kasakura confronts Shiratori on how he's attacking her when few minutes ago he was trying to help her. Shiratori explains that at some point he touched the back of his head and found a white string on his hair from the tuque hat, meaning some strands of it should also be found on Kasakura's tuque, definitely proving that she's the killer.

Kasakura removes her tuque hat, then throws it on Takagi's face before she angrily confesses to the murder. She reveals that she and Soumei had been going out for seven years, but that he been soaking up her money ever since. The breaking point was how she gave him her mother's valious ring for safekeeping but he pawned it instead, and when she tried to get it back she found out he had taken it and given it to another woman as an engagement ring. Megure says Kasakura could have easily gotten Soumei tried and jailed for either fraud or theft, but she replies that she wanted to kill him instead of ust getting him arrested for making her waste seven years of her life and her youth, and finishes by saying she had always hated and distrusted the police so she felt she had to do it herself.

Shiratori is genuinely saddened that the "girl of destiny" has become a criminal. He tells Kasakura how she wasn't like that in the past as Takagi takes her away, and she bitterly tells him that not only she can't remember ever meeting him, but that women's hearts change like the weather and believing they never do is just an effect of male ego, so with the right push women can go from angels to demons.

To try cheering Shiratori up, Ayumi offers him the paper folded sakuras that she had made earlier, and repeats the same things about the police that the girl in Shiratori's past said. A shocked Shiratori anxiously asks her where did she learn that and Ayumi explains she learned that from her teacher Sumiko Kobayashi, causing him to wonder if Sumiko could have been the girl from his past. Then Sumiko herself arrives to the scene, having been told by Megure that the children were there and needed a lift home, and Shiratori is starstruck when he sees her and realises that ''she'' is the girl.

When Sumiko is about to take the Detective Boy home by taxi, Shiratori gallantly takes her hand and offers to do so instead in his car. Haibara tells to Conan that this is a "surprise happy ending", while Conan realises that the Sakura trees around them are now in bloom.</spoiler>

== Manga to anime changes ==
{{main|List of differences between the manga and anime}}
* In the anime, instead of throwing her hat at Takagi's face, Kasakura takes it off calmly and tells him to take it. ''Then'', she tosses it at him and admits that she's the killer.
* In the anime, when Shiratori offers to take Sumiko and the children back home, Megure is seen standing behind the two with a comically exasperated expression. It's followed by a short scene where, as they drive away, she apologizes to him for letting the Detective Boys causing trouble and making him drive them back; Shiratori says it not a problem and adds it's just a simple task.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>Conan confirms it is a murder and investigates the ashtray of the green SUV and finds the same cigarette brand as the one Hayami smoked. After tranquilizing Kogoro, Conan announces that '''Seiji Kurumatani''' planned the murder. He reveals Kurumatani, who is an auto mechanic, was repairing Hayami's red classic car and was lending Hayami his green car during the time. After the repairs were finished, he called Hayami to the convenience store so they could trade cars. Before arriving there, Kurumatani adjusted a billboard at the intersection where the collision would soon occur. The adjustment caused the billboard to reflect headlamp lights creating glare for Hayami which caused the accident. Kurumatani confesses to the murder and reveals that Hayami ran over his sister a year ago. When Hayami's came to repair his car at Kurumatani's shop, he recognized the car and decided to meet up with him at the convenience store so he could make him turn himself in but Hayami denied it and refused to which made Kurumatani angry and wanting to execute his plan. Kurumatani asks him how he realized he was the murderer and Kogoro replies that it was because he was looking in the rear window at Hayami for all the time and focusing on crashing his car onto Hayami's without even looking at nature's beauties right in front of him which was represented by the rainbow in front of his windshield that he didn't even manage to see. Michida approves and Kurumatani regrets his act.</spoiler>
