MayuMomoka: /* Shuichi Akai (1st son) */

The '''Akai family''' has three known members so far: [[Shuichi Akai]], [[Masumi Sera]], and [[Akai family's middle brother|an unknown middle brother]]. Masumi has also alluded to a well endowed mother and a deceased father. According to Masumi, her surname Sera comes from her mother's side, and her second brother had also been sharing this surname until he graduated from high school. There is [[Mary]] who may be part of the Akai family.

===Mr. Akai (The Father)===
* Mr. Akai is deceased.
* Mr. Akai passed his looks down to his middle son.
* Mr. Akai was not an [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]] agent.<ref name="file949">[[Volume 90#Kohji Haneda's Death Case|File 949: Sweet Scent (Volume 90)]]</ref>
* Mr. Akai was involved in the death of [[Kohji Haneda]] and [[Amanda Hughes]].

===Mary===
*Mary appears to be a child in the current timeline. She acts maturely, like the adult she should be, suggesting that she is a victim of [[APTX 4869]] or some similar drug.
*Mary was bosomy.
*Mary presumably passed her looks onto Shuichi and Masumi.
*Mary was living in America.<ref>Chapter 786</ref>

===Shuichi Akai (1st son)===
{{main|Shuichi Akai}}
Shuichi Akai is the 1st son in Akai family. He is an [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]] agent and a major figure in the battle against the [[Black Organization]]. He once assumed the identity of Dai Moroboshi and infiltrated the Organization, where he was given the codename Rye. During this time he made enemies with [[Gin]] and [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and became romantically involved with [[Akemi Miyano]]. He subsequently put an end to his relationship with Jodie Starling (his colleague at the FBI).

===Unknown (2nd son)===
{{main|Akai family's middle brother}}
Assuming the middle brother is between 16 (assumed lower range for Masumi's real age) and 35 (assumed upper range for Akai's age based on his appearance and reasonable full-blooding sibling age separation), multiple characters could qualify for his identity. It's possible that the middle brother is a minor character who was a suspect or witness in a case, but did not distinguish himself or demonstrate his intelligence. It's also possible for the middle brother to be a character who has not been introduced yet, but will be later in a flashback. Some fans speculate that [[Mary]] who looks like a member of the Akai family might be the brother after being shrunken by [[APTX 4869]] and some others speculate that he is [[Shukichi Haneda]]. So far most of the hints indicate Shukichi, but it isn't confirmed yet.

During the Red Woman case, its stated that his classmates are around 28-29 years old, which narrows down the age range significantly. Counting a possible gap of a year, he could be somewhere between 27-30, though the middle numbers are more likely.

===Masumi Sera (1st daughter)===
{{main|Masumi Sera}}
Masumi Sera is the 1st/2nd daughter in Akai family. She is a high school detective. She is the younger sister of FBI agent [[Shuichi Akai]] and a practitioner of the martial art [[wikipedia:Jeet Kune Do|Jeet Kune Do]]. Although she grew up in Japan during her elementary school years, she moved to America three years ago with her mother, presumably due to Akai infiltrating the [[Black Organization]]. She has recently returned to Japan for some unknown reason.

==Speculation==
[[File:Mary Profile.jpg|thumb|right|Mary]]
===Mary===
{{main|Mary}}

Masumi Sera has been shown interacting with a child named Mary who may be related to the Akai family. Mary appears to be a middle-school aged girl, has the characteristic Akai family eyes, and asks Masumi to tell Conan she is her little sister from outside the territory.

As Masumi didn't mention having a younger sister, this had led to fan speculation that the child could be one of the other family members shrunken by [[APTX 4869]].
