The culprit is '''Fumie Masuko'''. She faked the Nue by putting fake fur on the dog and used the fired she created with metallic sodium and a painting of the wall of the house to create an optical illusion. Fumie admits she killed the two victims because Charles Abel was her husband and the two didn't save him back then. Heiji also reveals that Hajime is the son of Fumie and Charles.

Heiji tries to confess his feelings for Kazuha, but is disturbed by the Japan Air Self-Defense Force landing nearby on the orders of Yokomizo to capture the Nue and secure civilians. Surrounded by soldiers, Heiji decides not to confess. Some time later, the high-school student Momiji Ooka reads about the case on her smartphone and calls Heiji her future husband.</spoiler>

{{nihongo|'''Shinichi Kudo'''|工藤新一|Kudō Shin'ichi}} is the high school detective and main protagonist of the manga and anime ''[[Detective Conan]]''. While on a date with his childhood friend and romantic interest [[Ran Mouri]], Shinichi encounters [[Gin|two]] [[Vodka|men]] from a [[Black Organization|secret criminal organization]] who force feed him [[APTX 4869|a strange poison]] that causes his body to shrink back to first grade age. Shinichi takes up the alias '''[[Conan Edogawa]]''' and plans to use his immense skill as a detective to make Ran's [[Kogoro Mouri|bumbling private detective father]] famous in hopes that he will find a case involving the secret organization so he can expose its crimes and acquire an antidote that will turn him back into a teenager.

Viz romanized his original name as ''Shin'ichi Kudo'' while Shogakukan's website romanizes it as ''Shinichi Kudoh''.

== Background ==
Shinichi is a 16-year old<ref name="f2" /><ref>[[Volume_15#File_141_-_Gone.21.3F|Volume 15, File 141, page 12: "Gone!?"]]</ref> (17, according to the anime)<ref name="e3" /> student at [[Setting#Teitan_High_School|Teitan High School]] who has become famous for helping the [[Law_Enforcement#Tokyo_Metropolitan_Police|Tokyo police]] solve murder mysteries. Shinichi was born to [[Yusaku Kudo]], a mystery writer, and [[Yukiko Kudo]], a former movie star.<ref>[[Volume 5#File 049 - An Unfamiliar Visitor|Volume 5, File 49, page 163: "An Unfamiliar Visitor"]]</ref>

He met Ran when he started in kindergarten and spotted strange things that his father figured out were preparations to kidnap Ran. The kidnapping was foiled, and Ran and Shinichi formed a friendship when Shinichi defended her from the bullies.

The story begins when Shinichi takes his childhood friend [[Ran Mouri]] to a theme park, [[Tropical Land]], to celebrate her victory in a recent karate championship. During the course of their visit, Shinichi ends up solving [[Roller Coaster Murder Case|a murder case]]. He separates from Ran to follow a man in black, [[Vodka]], who was blackmailing a company president. He didn't notice when another man in black, [[Gin]], sneak up behind him and knocks him out with a baseball bat. Gin decides to test an experimental untraceable poison, [[APTX 4869]], on Shinichi to ensure that his death couldn't be traced back to them. However, instead of killing Shinichi, a rare side-effect occurs: his body shrinks into that of his six-year-old self.<ref name="f2" />

[[Image:Conan Edogawa Investigating.jpg|120px|thumb|right|Conan Edogawa, the "small" Shinichi]]
=== Conan Edogawa ===
{{main|Conan Edogawa}}
After escaping from well-meaning but skeptical park security, with nowhere else to go Shinichi runs home. He there encounters into his next door neighbor and close family friend, [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]]. He convinces Agasa of his identity and head inside [[Setting#Kudo_Residence|Shinichi's home]] to discuss the next move. Agasa warns him that he must keep his identity secret because the [[Black Organization]] will kill him and others associated with him should they discover the truth.<ref name="e2">[[Company President's Daughter Kidnapping Case|Episode 2: Company President's Daughter Kidnapping Case]].</ref>

Ran arrives to find out what happened to Shinichi, which forces him to come up with the alias Conan Edogawa from [[Arthur Conan Doyle|Arthur '''''Conan''''' Doyle]] and [[Rampo Edogawa|Rampo '''''Edogawa''''']] and he pretends to be a distant relative of Agasa's, who places Conan in Ran's care.<ref name="e2" /> Ran's father [[Kogoro Mouri]] owns a [[Setting#Mouri_Detective_Agency|Detective Agency]], which will allow Conan to run into cases involving the Black Organization. He occasionally uses Kogoro, and Agasa, among others as a mouthpiece to solve crimes while searching for how to get his body back.

In the meantime, to protect his identity he is forced to play the part of a first-year Elementary student, enrolling as a student at [[Teitan Elementary]]. Three of his classmates, [[Ayumi]], [[Genta]], and [[Mitsuhiko]], befriend him and pull him into creating the ''[[Detective Boys]]'', <ref>[[The Coded Map of the City Case|Episode 4: The Coded Map of the City Case]]</ref> after which he tries to keep them out of trouble. Their group is later joined by the creator of APTX 4869, [[Shiho Miyano]], shrunk down and using the alias [[Ai Haibara]].

Although he mostly uses the Conan alias to solve cases, in some (especially emergency) situations, he uses the Voice-Changing Bowtie to call the police using his original, Shinichi's voice and get involved with cases, which allow him to gain the authority that Conan lacks. In the aftermath; however, Shinichi requests his identity not to be revealed to the public, a clear contrast to what his attention-seeking behavior before turning to Conan.
{{clearleft}}

== Personality ==
At the beginning of the series, Shinichi is already well-known as a brilliant young detective, the "Savior of the police force", for solving many difficult cases the professionals could not.<ref name="e1">[[Roller Coaster Murder Case|Episode 1: Roller Coaster Murder Case]].</ref> He is extremely intelligent, and even from a young age was very intuitive and observant. Due to the influence of his father and the general laissez-faire environment at home, he has long been an incessant and persistent reader, especially of mystery novels.<ref name="f569">[[Volume 55#File 569 - The Mischievous Boy|Volume 55, Files 569-572: "The Mischievous Boy"]]</ref> His father, Yusaku started taking Shinichi to crime scenes as a child, which inspired him to be a detective.<ref>[[Volume 21#File 205 - Midair Sealed Chamber|Volume 21, File 205, pages 74-78: "Midair Sealed Chamber"]]</ref> Due to his bluntness and matter-of-fact manner, Shinichi can come off as rude and arrogant. However, he cares deeply about human life, unable to understand how any reason could be sufficient motive for murder,<ref>[[Volume 26#File 258 - Momentary Rest|Volume 26, File 258, page 71: "Momentary Rest"]]</ref> and is convinced that driving a culprit to suicide is no better than murder itself. <ref>[[Volume 16#File 153 - Bonds of Flame|Volume 16, File 153: "Bonds of Flame"]]</ref> The few times he has been too late to save a life haunt him throughout the series.

Prior to his transformation, Shinichi enjoyed being in the spotlight and was rather arrogant, reveling in making local headlines and receiving fan-mail. Throughout the series, Shinichi's predicament causes him to gain a sense of humility. Shinichi still keeps his flair for the dramatic (like his mother) that can be seen every time he sets out a deduction in pieces building to a climax.

Despite his popularity with the masses and his schoolmates, Shinichi has very few close friends. He is close to Ran and Agasa, and after deaging, he befriended Heiji, Haibara, and to some extent the other Detective Boys. Another reason for his lack of close friends was because his arrogant personality was a negative turn-off to many of his classmates and even teachers, making it hard to befriend him. Even with his close friends (one being older than him), Shinichi doesn't hesitate to call them "idiot", instead of calmly explaining his reason for doing or not doing something, sometimes causing arguments between him and Ran.

Shinichi also had a tendency, since elementary school, to have an air of being the "distant, cool guy". While he is a truly good and heroic individual, he doesn't make it known to others that obviously, and will make some "deductive reasoning" for why he did such a thing. His insensitive nature is also horrible, which was shown most prominently during the Holmes' Revelation Arc, when Ran started crying because she believed that Shinichi not telling her he was in London meant that he was indifferent to her feelings for him. However, instead of trying to comfort her, Shinichi repeatedly asked her about the [[Yukiko Kudo|strange woman]] she met, and told her to pull herself together.

Despite his intelligence, Shinichi is rather dense when it comes to love or romantic subjects, though perhaps not to the same extent as [[Heiji Hattori]]. He struggled to confess his love for to Ran, even after he knew her feelings (as Conan), and temporarily returned to his original body in the Desperate Revival Arc, he was about to confess to her, but chickened out at the last minute. After several failures, finally succeeded in [[Holmes' Revelation|London]]. However, he was revealed to be an amazing "wingman" in Episodes 253-254.

== Appearance ==
Shinichi is a 174 cm<ref name=CD41 /> (5'8.5") Japanese teenager with a thin, athletic build. He has pale skin and a dark brown/black hair with a cowlick in front and distinctive tuft in the back. Shinichi bears a striking resemblance to his father, [[Yusaku Kudo]] minus his father's mustache and round glasses. Shinichi has blue eyes in the manga (a trait shared by all the characters), and they are blue in the anime as well.

Shinichi is right handed and right footed, but he is good with both feet because of his soccer skills.

Shinichi often appears in his high school uniform, but he also wears a suit and tie or regular clothing depending on the occasion. When Conan turns back into Shinichi by using [[baijiu]] or a [[temporary antidote]], Shinichi will wear whatever appropriately sized clothing he can find at the time. He was also very popular with the girls as he was handsome not to mention a high school detective.

==Skills==
:''See also: [[Conan Edogawa#Skills|Conan's Skills]]''
=== Detective skills ===
Shinichi is very skilled as a detective, often earning him comparisons to [[Sherlock Holmes]]. Shinichi has acquired various nicknames because of his prowess, such as the "[[Wikipedia:Heisei|Heisei]] Holmes" and the "Detective of the East". 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. In the english version his motto is "Only one truth prevails". He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to recall every detail of an investigation or other topics he cares about, and may have a photographic memory to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Shinichi's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony, and using astute logic he uncovers the reasons behind those inconsistencies in order to link them to the crime. Shinichi has extraordinarily broad and deep knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases, something he likely acquired from incessant reading as a child. Only his father [[Yusaku Kudo]], and the current [[Kaitou Kid]], [[Kaito Kuroba]], regularly surpass him.

Besides intelligence, Shinichi also has an amazing athletic ability, partially derived from playing soccer, his favorite sport. Shinichi is an extremely skilled soccer player, having been professionally scouted while only in middle school, but he chooses to stay at the amateur level. He initially played to hone his reflexes and often juggles a ball to clear his mind, but he is also an enthusiastic fan of the sport in its own right.<ref name="e1"/> In order to defend himself and others from criminals, Shinichi has perfected a signature, powerful precision kick to knock out criminals using soccer balls or whatever substitute is handy. Shinichi's kick is accurate over long distances and he is capable of mentally reckoning the angle of impact necessary to rebound a soccer ball off a wall and strike an attacker from behind. He is also good at skiing and snowboarding.

Aside from soccer, Shinichi exhibits a knack for handling firearms due to his father taking him to shooting ranges from time to time. During the Clocktower Heist, Shinichi is able to shoot and dislodge the support beam of a giant projection screen, which Kaitou Kid had placed in order to fool a crowd of onlookers, with a single shot from a moving helicopter. Additionally, in [[Movie 2]] Conan shot a gun at Ran and the criminal holding her hostage with impeccable accuracy; in doing so, he reminds her of Shinichi.

Shinichi is nimble as well as strong. In the manga, he is capable of considerable acrobatics, jumping great distances and swinging from tree to tree to escape onlookers.<ref>Shiragami case</ref> The anime and movies augment Shinichi's athletic abilities in addition to what is shown in the manga. He has been able to skillfully dodge a kicking assault from an angry Ran, something very few have ever managed.

=== Music ===
Shinichi cannot sing on key in the slightest so he is often accused of being [[Wikipedia:tone deaf|tone deaf]]. Despite being a hilariously awful singer, Shinichi has [[Wikipedia:perfect pitch|perfect pitch]] and can identify notes accurately even in difficult contexts like the sound of phone button presses forming a melody.<ref>[[Volume 15#File 144 - Their Voices Are Alike!?|Volume 15, File 144: "Their Voices Are Alike!?"]]</ref> Also, to be like his favorite detective, Sherlock Holmes, he plays the violin. This was confirmed in movie 12 ''[[Full Score of Fear]]'' when he played "Amazing Grace" for Ran. However, he is stumped on what Ran meant when she said, "He has a funny habit when he plays." His proficiency with the violin became canon in Episode 836.

=== Language ===
Shinichi is well-educated in English, as he once conversed with and translated for an American diplomat, and later solved a case in London without evidence of any language barrier.<ref>[[Volume 21#File 205 - Midair Sealed Chamber|Volume 21, File 205: "Midair Sealed Chamber"]]</ref><ref name="f743">[[Volume 71#File 743 - Holmes' Apprentice|Volumes 71-72, Files 743-752: "Holmes' Apprentice"]]</ref> Shinichi also knows some German, at least how to count.<ref>[[Genta's Certain Kill Shot]]</ref> Shinichi is not familiar with Italian.<ref>[[The Coded Map of the City Case]]</ref> Shinichi seems to understand "Girl Writing", due to the fact that he had solved an e-mail cipher of a 2nd year high school girl quickly.<ref>[[Secret of the Russian Blue| Episode 445: Secret of the Russian Blue]]</ref>

== Plot overview ==
Because the main plot revolves around the fact that Shinichi has become 'Conan' and is forced into hiding, Shinichi is rarely in the series as himself. However, Conan is frequently shown calling Ran using his voice-changing bow tie to sound like Shinichi and sending/receiving text messages from her with "Shinichi's" phone. In these instances, it can be said that the character of Shinichi, albeit in the body of Conan, is appearing, since these phone conversations and text messages allow Shinichi to be himself, however briefly. The below instances however, are actual appearances of Shinichi as well as flashbacks from before the series began.

=== Transformations back into Shinichi ===

==== Roller Coaster Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 1|001-002]], Anime: [[Roller Coaster Murder Case|001]])====
[[Image:Shinichi appears.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Shinichi appears to correct Hattori's deduction]] Shinichi starts as himself in the Roller coaster murder case, but by the end he has been transformed into Conan, thus beginning the series' plot. Since then, Conan has temporarily turned back to Shinichi several times.

==== Great Detective of the West (Manga: [[Volume 10|092-095]], Anime: [[Diplomat Murder Case|048-049]])====
Shinichi's next real appearance after shrinking is in [[Volume 10]], when a strange detective from Osaka named [[Heiji Hattori]] arrives at Mouri Detective Agency looking for Shinichi in order to determine which of them is the better detective. A strange combination of having a cold and drinking the [[baijiu]] that Heiji had brought along allows Conan to briefly grow into Shinichi once again.<ref>[[Volume 10#File 092 - The Great Detective Of The West|Volume 10, Files 92-96: "The Great Detective Of The West"]]</ref> However, he develops an immunity to the alcohol and cannot replicate the transformation.

==== The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume 26|254-260]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|188-193]]) ====
In [[Volume 26]], Conan is able to become Shinichi using an [[Antidote (prototype)]] that [[Ai Haibara]] synthesized. As himself, he tries to surprise Ran by disguising himself as a character in her play, but is interrupted by a murder case and ends up revealing himself to his entire high school. [[Heiji Hattori]] covers for him and Shinichi is able to spend about 48 hours as himself, albeit with a brief collapse about halfway through. He turns back into Conan just as he seems to be about to confess his feelings to Ran.<ref>[[Volume 26#File 254 - An Infatuated Heart|Volume 26, Files 254-260: "An Infatuated Heart"]]</ref>

==== The Murderer is Shinichi Kudo (Manga: [[Volume 62|646-651]], Anime: [[Murderer, Shinichi Kudo|521-523]])====
Shinichi's next appearance is not until [[Volume 62]], when, while on a case with Heiji, Conan goes missing and 'Shinichi' seems to appear. The 'Shinichi' is actually someone who had gotten plastic surgery to look like Shinichi Kudo, and is actually trying to blame Shinichi for a murder. The real Shinichi hides in the forest until he can clear his name. Shinichi had been temporarily restored by another of Haibara's prototypes, but this time by accident; Agasa mistakenly gave them to Shinichi thinking they were cold medicine.<ref>[[Volume 62#File 646 - Village of Animosity|Volume 62, Files 646-651: "Village of Animosity"]]</ref> After the case is solved Shinichi transforms back to Conan, but luckily, Haibara secretly followed him there and gives him another antidote, saving him from revealing his identity to Kogoro, Ran and Kazuha. While driving home from the case, the group is stopped by another murder which Shinichi and Heiji investigate together, despite increasing pangs that warn of his imminent reversion to Conan. After the case is resolved, Ran tries to stop Shinichi from leaving, saying she has something to tell him. Shinichi stops her, saying "According to my deductions, what you have to say and what I have to say are the same thing." Ran seizes his hand while he is transforming back into Conan, and though Haibara knocks her out with Conan's wristwatch, she refuses to let go of his hand. Haibara and [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] have to cut and re-pin Conan's shirt onto him because Ran is still clutching his hand and he refuses to pull out of her grip.<ref>[[Volume 62#File 652 - The Thing She Really Wants to Ask|Volumes 62-63, Files 652-654: "The Thing She Really Wants to Ask"]]</ref>

==== Holmes' Revelation (Manga: [[Volume 71|743-751]], Anime: [[Holmes' Revelation|616-621]])====
In [[Volume 71]], Conan, Ran, and Kogoro are invited to England by a rich, elite British woman, Diana Kingstone, after Kogoro finds her cat under the table in Café Poirot. However, since 'Conan Edogawa' doesn't have the proper credentials to fly internationally, Ai gives him a prototype pill so that Shinichi and Agasa can fly low-profile to England on the same plane that Ran and Kogoro are flying. Ai provides a second prototype pill for the return journey, but Conan uses it while Ran was pursuing him in London. During that trip, Shinichi answers Ran's hurt feelings over his behavior with the fact that he cares for her and that he likes her; unfortunately, before she could respond or confess in kind, Shinichi has to vanish and becomes Conan again. Luckily for Conan, Shinichi's parents appear because Ai had expected him to use the second pill, and they provide him with an extra antidote to let Conan return to Japan. <ref name="f743" />

==== Kyoto School Trip Case (Manga: [[Volume 94|1000-1005]], Anime: TBD)====

=== Flashback Appearances ===

==== Shinichi's first case (Manga: [[Volume 21|204-207]], Anime: [[The Locked Room in the Sky: Shinichi Kudo's First Case|162]])====
One year ago, Shinichi solved his first case by himself on a plane flying to Los Angeles.

==== Heiji's Memories (Manga: [[Volume 50|518-521]], Anime: [[Heiji Hattori vs. Shinichi Kudo: Deduction Battle on the Ski Slope|490]])====
During a call to Conan, Heiji talks about a brilliant detective kid he met at a skiing trip during middle school, 3 years ago. That kid was actually Shinichi, who he competed with to solve the mystery.

==== Challenge from the original Kaitou Kid (Manga: [[Volume 55|570-573]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo's Childhood Adventure|472-473]])====
A flashback revealed that 10 years ago, as first-graders, Shinichi and Ran had been given a riddle by the original [[Kaitou Kid]], [[Toichi Kuroba]].

==== Memories of Light Blue (Manga: [[Volume 83|882]] and [[Volume 84|883-884]], Anime: [[Shinichi Kudo Aquarium Case|772-773]])====

==Non-Canon Plot Overview==
=== Transformations back into Shinichi ===
==== Movie 7: Crossroad in the Ancient Capital ====
{{main|Crossroad in the Ancient Capital}}
In Movie 7, Heiji was injured and Kazuha kidnapped; her abductors threatened to kill her unless Heiji showed up for her. Believing Heiji to be unable to do so, Conan contacted Ai and asked if there was any way for him to briefly become Heiji. Ai gave him medicine to simulate the effects of a cold, then he drank some [[Baijiu]] which had changed him in his and Heiji's first manga appearance. Conan became Shinichi for approximately an hour, but according to Ai he was extremely weak and sick for the entire time.

==== OVA 9: The Stranger from Ten Years Later ====
{{main|The Stranger from Ten Years Later}}
In OVA 9, Conan takes another prototype antidote. However, it proves less effective than the prototype he used during the Desperate Revival arc; Conan became Shinichi, but only for a few hours, and remained in a feverish state, unable to wake up until he had reverted back to Conan. During his time unconscious, he had a vivid hallucination that he had grown to age 17 again as Conan and that Ran, aged 27, was about to marry [[Tomoaki Araide]].

== Relationships analysis ==
Since Shinichi is not featured as prominently as Conan throughout the series, only a few of his relationships with other characters have been substantially explored.

=== Family & Friends ===
[[Image:Shinichi and Ran.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Shinichi and Ran]]
==== Ran Mouri ====
{{main|Shinichi Kudo and Ran Mouri}}
[[Ran Mouri]] is Shinichi's childhood friend and canonical love interest. They have been friends and playmates since kindergarten<ref name="f569"/><ref>[[Volume 11#File 107 - The Two Mysteries|Volume 11, File 107: "The Two Mysteries"]]</ref>, though Shinichi's tendency to drag Ran along into minor trouble caused some censure from [[Eri Kisaki|her mother]]. Shinichi has liked Ran since they were little. It was revealed when he is in the first year of middle school, and turned down any other potential love interests as a result, but she has never realized this.<ref>[[Volume 18#File 175 - Unlock Your Heart!?|Volume 18, File 175, page 92: "Unlock Your Heart!?"]]</ref> Shinichi was similarly oblivious to Ran's regard until Ran confessed to Conan that despite his faults, which she is well aware of, she has liked Shinichi for some time.<ref>[[Volume 1#File 002 - The Great Detective Turned Small|Volume 1, File 2, page 64: "The Great Detective Turned Small"]]</ref> He is very protective of her, and has been amazed by her various skills and kindness on more than one occasion. Shinichi has since confessed his feelings to Ran in the non-[[canon]] 4th movie 'Captured In Her Eyes' (which Ran mistook as his attempt to get her memories back), and made attempts to say something during temporary cures in the manga and anime, but cases always seem to interfere until the cure runs out. Shinichi since then has finally canonically confessed to Ran in the case in London.<ref>[[Volume 72#File 752 - A Troublesome and Difficult Case|Volume 72, File 752, page 14: "A Troublesome and Difficult Case"]]</ref> Ran has yet to verbally return his confession, but Shinichi is confident he now understands how she feels already.

[[File:Shinichi Confesses.jpg|thumb|250px|Shinichi Kudo somewhat and somehow confesses his feelings for [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] to her under the Big Ben in London, during the Holmes' Revelation Arc.]]
Shinichi's initial disappearance troubled Ran to the point of insomnia and nearly going to the police. Since then, Shinichi sometimes calls Ran over the telephone and imitates his normal voice with the [[voice-changing bowtie]] so that she doesn't worry about him. He convinces her that he is off solving a very difficult case and will return once the investigation concludes.<ref>[[Volume_1#File_009_-_An_Unfortunate_Misunderstanding|Volume 1, File 9, Page 15: "An Unfortunate Misunderstanding"]]</ref> In reality, he is the brain behind her father's rapid rise to fame as a detective.

Shinichi/Conan is not without sexual fantasies regarding Ran, the most obvious evidence being his nosebleeds or blushing when he sees her in a bathing suit<ref>[[Volume 83#File 873 - Red Devil|Volume 83, File 873, Page 4: "Red Devil"]]</ref>, or when Ran pulled him into an [[wikipedia: onsen|onsen]] with her.<ref>[[Volume_9#File_084_-_Kogoro.27s_Class_Reunion|Volume 9, File 4: "Kogoro's Class Reunion"]]</ref> For her part, Ran often blushes when thinking of Shinichi, especially when Sonoko teases her about their relationship. Her attitude towards Conan is one of more open, sisterly affection, such as giving him hugs or holding his hand. Shinichi has some concerns of bodily harm should Ran realize that not only has he been lying to her, but they've shared a bed and taken a bath together.<ref>[[Volume 14#File 134 - Question In Dead Leave|Volume 14, File 134, pages 60-67: "Question In Dead Leave"]]</ref>

Shinichi and Ran appear to share a close empathic link due to their strong feelings for each other, making each of them feel the other's worry and agitation in times of extreme danger.<ref>Manga Chapters 372-373: Serial Bomber Case</ref>

{{clearright}}

==== Yusaku and Yukiko Kudo ====
{{main|Kudo family}}
[[Yusaku Kudo|Yusaku]] and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] Kudo are both aware that [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] is in fact Shinichi. His parents are even more famous than he is, with Yusaku being a famous mystery novelist and Yukiko being a retired actress who remains partially involved in the industry. They currently live in the United States and travel extensively, having left Shinichi in Japan on his own when he was fourteen. Though he sometimes finds his parents' carefree ways to be annoying, he loves them dearly. Yusaku is also a detective with the same keen eye for details, and similarly to Holmes' brother Mycroft, Yusaku always seems to solve a case one step ahead of his son.

==== Hiroshi Agasa ====
Although not related by blood, there is a strong family-like bond between Shinichi and [[Hiroshi Agasa]]. Agasa was the first to know about Shinichi's shrunk predicament and was the one to tell him to keep it a secret. Most of the gadgets that Shinichi has were made by Agasa to help Shinichi catch the criminals and solve the cases as Conan. He also knows about Shinichi's romantic relationship with Ran and sometimes teases him about it in front of her (when Shinichi can't do anything about it since he is Conan).

==== Heiji Hattori ====
When they first meet, Conan and [[Heiji Hattori|Heiji]] seem bound to become lifelong rivals, especially after Kudo beats Heiji in their first case. Even though Heiji discovers Shinichi's secret, he decides to keep quiet (though he often slips up and calls him Kudo in front of others). After Heiji realizes the truth, the two have become best friends, and consult one another on cases, developments concerning the Black Organization, and even their "girlfriends". They have solved many cases together, and Heiji is the person Shinichi turns to for advice or for confirmation regarding a deduction. Heiji has, on several occasions, declared himself to be Shinichi's best friend or brother.

Heiji still maintains some of his original feelings of rivalry, and gets annoyed if anyone claims Shinichi is better (or even equal), and will often go to great lengths to show that the "west" (Osaka) is better than the "east" (Tokyo). Shinichi usually starts off acting like he is disinterested in the frivolous competition, but may then become competitive himself if Heiji starts "winning" or someone bruises his ego. Others, like Ran and Kazuha, see them both as equally skilled detectives.

====Sonoko Suzuki====
Sonoko and Shinichi have known each other since childhood. Sonoko finds Shinichi's obsession with mysteries annoying and considers him to be an arrogant showoff.{{citation needed}} That being said, she acknowledges his knowledge and intelligence. Sonoko enjoys teasing him about his relationship with Ran, calling them husband and wife or boyfriend / girlfriend. Shinichi finds her attempts at attracting boys to be rather irritating. Sonoko is one of the few people who calls Shinichi by his first name with kun. Shinichi also calls Sonoko by her first name without including any honorific.

=== Detective Boys ===
So far, Shinichi did not canonically meet the detective boys before becoming Conan. In the non-canonical animated special, [[Magic File 2: The Case of the Mysterious Wall and the Black Lab|OVA Magic File 2]], four years prior to him becoming Conan, a thirteen-year-old Shinichi came across the Detective Boys, [[Genta Kojima|Genta]], [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]], and [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]], while they were still three years old. He needed their help in confirming a client's alibi. Also, in the first live action drama and the first episode of the anime<ref>The anime was altered to introduce the Detective Boys early. In the manga they met after Shinichi became Conan.</ref>, the Detective Boys are seen sneaking into Tropical Land for treasure. Ran then says, pointing to the children, "It was like that last time, huh?" to Shinichi.

==== Ai Haibara ====
{{main|Conan Edogawa and Ai Haibara}}

[[Ai Haibara]], a defector from the [[Black Organization]] who was shrunk with the same poison as Shinichi, is the third girl that seems to have somewhat romantic feelings for Conan/Shinichi, although she never truly admits it. Indeed, it is a mystery just exactly what she feels for him, whether friendship or otherwise. Some people, such as [[Yukiko Kudo|Conan's mother]], have stated that she has feelings for Conan. It could be said that, because of their almost equal level of intelligence as well as similarities in their pasts (i.e. they're both victims of the [[APTX 4869]]), she finds it easier to talk to him. She loves to tease him or otherwise insult him, pointing out his weakness.

=== Law enforcement ===
==== Juzo Megure ====
[[Juzo Megure|Inspector Megure]] has worked together with Shinichi to solve many cases. During Shinichi's [[The_Locked_Room_in_the_Sky:_Shinichi_Kudo%27s_First_Case|first case on the plane]], Megure mentions that he has not seen him since he was in his 6th year of Elementary school. Megure seemed irritated that Shinichi was poking his nose into a murder case. Since then, because Shinichi has proven himself solving cases one after the other, Megure has grown to respect Shinichi and his deductive abilities, thanking him for his assistance.

=== Others ===
==== Kaitou Kid ====
Despite the fact [[Toichi Kuroba|Toichi]] and Shinichi only met once prior to Toichi's death, it's worth mentioning that Toichi referred to Shinichi as his "older brother" and himself as the "younger brother". This is because Yusaku created and thus was the '''father''' of the moniker [[Kaitou Kid|Kaitou '''Kid''']], Toichi's secret identity. Toichi's son and successor, [[Kaito Kuroba|Kaito]], has also only crossed paths with Shinichi as Shinichi once, during the [[The_Gathering_of_the_Detectives!_Kudo_Shinichi_vs._Kaitou_Kid|Clocktower heist]]. Kaito thought Shinichi made the heist harder (and thus less boring) in [[Saguru Hakuba]]'s absence, and Shinichi found Kid's intention of 'stealing' the Clocktower in order to save it from demolition to be fairly admirable. Notably, neither of them saw the other's face.

In their next encounter, however, after Shinichi had become Conan, Kid disguised himself as Ran in order to steal the Suzuki Black Star pearl. When Conan cornered him on the Suzuki cruise ship, Kid suggested that he'd stolen all of Ran's clothes to impersonate her, and left her naked on the deck. While this ended up being a bluff, Conan was shocked and infuriated. In subsequent encounters between Kid and Conan, Conan displays a much more intense desire to capture Kid. In several instances he appears to be able to 'sense' Kid's presence; knowing Kid is close by often causes Conan to behave far more frenetically. However, in several instances, beginning with the "Big Adventure in the Eccentric Residence" case, when Kid does Conan/Shinichi a favor, such as saving Genta's life in the aforementioned case, Conan reciprocates by halting his investigation just shy of capturing Kid, thereby allowing him to escape unhindered.

== People who know Conan's real identity ==

There are only a few characters in the series who know Conan's real identity and none have betrayed Conan's identity to date. The main characters to know the secret are [[Hiroshi Agasa]], Conan's parents, [[Heiji Hattori]] and [[Ai Haibara]]. [[Vermouth]] also knows, but she has kept it a secret from the rest of the Organization to protect Shinichi because he had [[Vermouth_timeline#Golden_Apple_Case_.28Manga:_350-354.2C_Anime:_286-288.29|saved her life in New York]]. [[Eisuke Hondou]], the younger brother of C.I.A. agent [[Hidemi Hondou]], also knows and keeps Conan's secret. [[Kaitou Kid]] also knows Conan's identity in the movies, though it is not clear whether he knows Conan's secret in the actual anime and manga. However, Kid seems to know there is something unusual about Conan, as whenever he tries to publicly steal he usually reveals that he only wants to compete with Conan as thief and detective. [[Ran]] gets suspicious on occasion, but so far Conan has managed to trick her into thinking Conan and Shinichi are two different people. Finally, [[Subaru Okiya]] has seen Conan use Shinichi's voice with his bowtie voice modifier. Since Subaru Okiya is actually [[Shuichi Akai]] in disguise, this means that Akai knows about it as well.

== Name origin ==
Shinichi's given name is a pun on "one truth". The "ichi" (一) means "one" and "shin" can be read as truth (真), however the kanji actually used for "shin" (新) in Shinichi's name means "new".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/cgi-bin/wwwjdic.cgi?1C|title=WWWJDIC: Word Search|date=2011|publisher=Jim Breen|accessdate=2011-09-04}}</ref> Shinichi's family name "Kudo" comes from the fictional detective Shunsaku Kudo created by Nobumitsu Kodaka. <ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Detective Conan|volume=18|publisher=Shogakukan|date=1998-01-17 |isbn=4-09-125048-3|chapter=|page=Back cover flap|language=Japanese|location=Tokyo}}</ref> The ON-readings of the kanji for "Kudo" mean "craft" or "construction" (工) and "wisteria" (藤). <ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/cgi-bin/wwwjdic.cgi?1B|title=WWWJDIC: Kanji Selection|date=2011|publisher=Jim Breen|accessdate=2011-09-04}}</ref>
"Shinichi" may also have come from "Shinichi Suzuki", a famous violinist. Shinichi Kudo plays violin.<ref>Ch 936 Ran mentions that Shinchi plays the violin very well but also mentions his tone-deafness</ref>

== Character inspiration ==
Shinichi's design was based off of Conan's. Gosho said Shinichi's hairstyle was designed in about one minute. He smoothed [[Yaiba]]'s hair and added a tuft modeled after the apostrophe hairstyle of Kabu from [[Wikipedia:Sally_the_Witch|Sally the Witch]]. The tuft on hair on the top of Shinichi's head comes from the character Shichimi in [[Wikipedia:Niji Iro Tōgarashi|Niji Iro Tōgarashi]]. Shinichi's speech habits were meant to be slightly rough like Joe from [[Wikipedia:Ashita no Joe|Ashita no Joe]] and [[Wikipedia:Touch (manga)|Touch]].<ref>File 865 Shounen Sunday Special Booklet</ref>

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>
The culprit is '''Fumie Masuko'''. She faked the Nue by putting fake fur on the dog and used the fired she created with metallic sodium and a painting of the wall of the house to create an optical illusion. Fumie admits she killed the two victims because Charles Abel was her husband and the two didn't save him back then. Heiji also reveals that Hajime is the son of Fumie and Charles.

Heiji tries to confess his feelings for Kazuha, but is disturbed by the Japan Air Self-Defense Force landing nearby on the orders of Yokomizo to capture the Nue and secure civilians. Surrounded by soldiers, Heiji decides not to confess. Some time later, the high-school student Momiji Ooka reads about the case on her smartphone and calls Heiji her future husband.</spoiler>

'''{{nihongo|Ran Mouri|毛利蘭|Mōri Ran}}''', also known as '''Rachel Moore''' in the [[Funimation]] dub, is a main protagonist in the manga and anime series, ''[[Detective Conan]]''. She is the childhood friend and the romantic interest of [[Shinichi Kudo]] and the daughter of [[Kogoro Mouri]].

==Background==
[[File:Child Ran and Fusae.jpg|thumb|left|First Grade Ran meets [[Fusae Campbell]], ten years before the present storyline, and borrows her umbrella]]
Ran is a childhood friend of [[Shinichi Kudo]]. She is the daughter of [[Kogoro Mouri]], a private detective, and [[Eri Kisaki]], a lawyer. Her parents separated when she was seven,<ref name="m2">[[The Fourteenth Target|Movie 2: The Fourteenth Target]]</ref> and one of her biggest goals is to get them back together. Her best friend besides Shinichi is her classmate [[Sonoko Suzuki]], who often teases her about her relationship with Shinichi. Her other friends include [[Masumi Sera]], [[Kazuha Toyama]] and [[Heiji Hattori]].

Ran first met Shinichi back in Sakura class. Ran began liking Shinichi when she noticed he was wearing a paper name badge like her, so she wouldn't be bullied for being the only one without a proper badge. Unknown to her, her home room teacher was secretly planning to kidnap her, which Shinichi - with his father's help - foiled. Ran seemed unaware of the plot.

When Ran and Shinichi were six, they snuck into Teitan elementary school at night to uncover the truth behind a hat-wearing monster rumor. They met the elder [[Kaitou Kid]] in the school library who played a nasty prank on them before handing over a code inside a leather wallet. With the help of Agasa, Shinichi and Ran partially solved the case and Shinichi started to informally call Ran by her first name. That same year Ran met [[Fusae Campbell]] who was waiting to see if Agasa would appear at their promised meeting place. Fusae gives Ran her umbrella and asks Ran to buy one of her designer purses when she gets older.

Before a year before the series' start, Ran and Shinichi visited Shinichi's parents in New York which they took advantage of, since Kogorō was on a community trip. She was there when Shinichi solved his first case and gained recognition as a detective. They met [[Yukiko Kudo]], his mother, and her actress friend, [[Sharon Vineyard]] (the public face of [[Vermouth]], a member of the [[Black Organization]]). Later that evening, she encountered [[Shuichi Akai]] who warned her there was a serial killer on the prowl in the area. Ran later encountered [[Vermouth]] in disguise as the serial killer. Vermouth would have fallen to her death, but Ran caught her arm and Shinichi helped her pull Vermouth to safety. Due to this, Vermouth gave Ran and Shinichi the nicknames "Angel" and "Cool Guy", respectively.<ref>[[Volume 34#File 350 - Golden Apple 1|Volumes 34-35, Files 350-354: "Golden Apple 1"]]</ref> Vermouth later showed hesitance to kill Ran and later [[Conan Edogawa]] (Shinichi's childhood form) as well,<ref name="e345" /> but whether or not it was because of any emotional attachment is unclear. It was during this trip that Ran realized her true feelings for Shinichi, finally realizing that she is in love with him.

Before the tropical land meetup, Shinichi and Ran visited Beika Aquarium together where Shinchi solved a case. After the case Shinichi accidentally making her drop her new cellphone on a sewer, he promises to replace it and take her to Tropical Land if she wins the Karate Championship as an apology, she also half-jokingly demands her new cellphone to be strapped with a sea cucumber strap, which Shinichi actually got for her.

After Shinichi's disappearance while on a trip to [[Tropical Land]] Amusement Park with her, Ran met Conan, who was introduced by [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] as a "distant relative". At Agasa's request, Ran agreed to look after him, and immediately came to think of him as a surrogate little brother.<ref>[[Volume 1#File 002 - The Great Detective Turned Small|Volume 1, File 2: "The Great Detective Turned Small"]]</ref> Ran has come to suspect Conan's identity multiple times, but Conan always manages (helped by his friends like [[Ai Haibara]] and even [[Kaito Kid]]) to find a sufficient alibi to satisfy her concerns.

== Personality ==
[[File:773-1.png|thumb|Ran is mad at Shinichi for losing her phone.]]
[[File:773-2.png|thumb|"Why would you make me say that?!"]]

Ran's greatest personality trait is that she genuinely cares for those she loves. She is also patient, kind, and nurturing. She has a very overwhelming personality, quickly able to intimidate people when angered. Like Shinichi, she highly values justice to the point of idealism. To avoid making Shinichi choose between her and his important case (which is actually useless because Shinichi has turned into Conan and can't return as of now), she has decided to wait for him to finish it, trusting his promise that he will come back, despite their separation causing Ran a lot of emotional pain. Ran is also very hot-blooded and tends to act on impulses when the people she cares about are involved; the combination of jumping to conclusions and not hesitating to use karate on those who she perceives to have wronged someone have led to several "near-miss" misunderstandings. She is also not above using martial arts as a subtle threat to keep people, including her father, in line. In earlier stories, she would become violently suspicious if she thought Shinichi was philandering, although more recently his confessions (in the [[Holmes' Revelation]] Arc) have led her to trust his intentions.

Ran can be very brave and resourceful when she wants to be, and has rescued Conan from trouble on many occasions. She has remained bold, steady, confident and calm in many situations that would usually cause others to remain frozen in fear, such as being threatened by a gun <ref name="e345">[[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|Episode 345: Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night]]</ref> or surrounded by flames <ref>[[Movie 5]]</ref>. However, she has an irrational fear of the supernatural and is thus — unlike her friend Sonoko — absolutely no fan of anything related to the horror genre.<ref name="e274">[[Truth About the Haunted House|Episode 274-275: Truth About the Haunted House]]</ref> She also constantly tries to reunite her father and mother again, though with little success, thanks to the mutual stubbornness of both parents. Ran is typically unaware of her own attractiveness, and usually remains oblivious when men try to flirt with her, often to Sonoko's exasperation, who believes her wait for Shinichi to be hopeless. If made aware, Ran doesn't respond in kind due to her feelings for Shinichi. Even though Ran is in love with Shinichi, she has repeatedly failed to convey her feelings because she suddenly becomes self-conscious.

Ran is very self-sufficient for her age, since her father Kogoro is often drunk, slovenly, and fiscally irresponsible. She handles many of the Mouri household's financial affairs and all the cooking and housework. She also ensures Kogoro doesn't slack off on his job, is on his best behaviour for client meetings, and she often greets and provides refreshments for potential clients. She also appreciates fine art. Ran is noted by both Shinichi and [[Shuichi Akai]] as one who "cries a lot". <ref> Manga file: "Ran's Tears"</ref>

Ran also seemed to have a sense of noticing when something seems wrong or strange, although she doesn't always figure out on her own what it is. Like in a [[Volume 29#Girl Clubbing Case|case]] where a ganguro woman was killed, Ran could feel that there something that didn't fit in with the victim's look (the killer had switched platform boots with regular shoes). And during the Macademy awards Ran noticed that Shinichi's father who was on TV (who was Yukiko in disguise) behaved 'cute'.

It has happened that Ran, like her father, can become serious about a case, if it involves something personal to her. During the Night Baron murder, where she realized that the most likely suspect was a karate champion, she admired, she decides, after considered what Shinichi would have done in her situation, to try find proof of the champion's innocent. Another time she helped an old classmate, accused of theft, proving her innocent.

Ran also likes to rush wherever she goes, believing both her name and nature to be like the word "Run" from English. She even said to Shinichi, "My name is Ran! I was born to run!"

==Appearance==
Ran is a light-skinned girl of average height. She is slender in frame, yet sports an athletic and curvaceous build. She has big bluish-purple eyes and dark brown hair. Her hair is straight and hip-length, tucked behind her ears with short wavy bangs over her forehead. What was originally a wave in her bangs has evolved into a stylized triangular point as the manga has progressed. Ran is also very beautiful, as described by many characters throughout the series. Many men have become infatuated with her in the series, as noted by Sonoko (much to Sonoko's annoyance). [[Eisuke Hondou]] had openly confessed before Conan that he was in love with Ran (though the statement's truth is somewhat doubted). Ran was once even offered a [[An Elevator Murder Case|modeling job]].

== Abilities ==
[[File:691-16.png|thumb|Ran beats up a gangster]]

=== Martial arts ===
Ran's most notable ability is her great prowess in martial arts; she is a black-belt in karate as well as team captain and ace of her high school team with enough skill to win regional tournaments in her age group.<ref>[[Volume 1#File 001 - The Heisei Holmes|Volume 1, File 1: "The Heisei Holmes"]]</ref> Her skills are also shown comparable to [[Makoto Kyogoku]], a world-class martial artist (and Sonoko's boyfriend), able to effectively attack in perfect sync with him.<ref>[[Volume 33#File 334 - Bloody Valentine 4|Volume 33, File 334: - "Bloody Valentine 4"]]</ref> She is also well-trained in Judo by her father, showing similar proficiency in his signature one-armed shoulder throw. Her deceptive strength and skill have been seen repeatedly, both from her ability to effortlessly smash stone and other very sturdy objects and with noticeable dexterity and agility also take out various and multiple assailants, most with just a single hit. From watching Shinichi play soccer over the years, Ran has also developed similar flexibility and accuracy in her kicks.<ref>[[Movie 16]]</ref> Despite her prowess, she may not always be able to fight if scared too much.<ref name="m2" /> Ran was also unable to fight due to suffering from amnesia in [[Captured in Her Eyes|Movie 4: Captured in Her Eyes]].

=== Physical prowess ===
Despite her slender frame, Ran has considerable raw strength, as seen from prying open a powerless elevator door, and holding up a much-larger Vermouth when she almost fell to her death in the 'Shinichi Kudo's NY Adventure' arc. She is also shown to be remarkably fast, able to quickly react to and knock away falling pipes and likewise dodge a bullet up-close while on guard. Her strikes have also shown similar speed, able to swat down a bee with a single kick. Conan states that Ran has an unusual amount of stamina.<ref name="m9">[[Strategy Above the Depths|Movie 9: Strategy Above the Depths]]</ref>

=== Intelligence ===
Ran is quite intelligent. She was able to solve a few cases on her own, and has been shown to be a better detective than several characters such as Sonoko on a number of occasions. Shinichi/Conan has even acknowledged that Ran is a skillful detective<ref name="e196">[[The Invisible Weapon, Ran's First Investigation|Episode 196: The Invisible Weapon, Ran's First Investigation]]</ref>. Ran also has a very good memory and attention to detail, having used both to contribute to investigations more than once. If Shinichi/Conan had not gone through extreme lengths to fool her, she would have been the first to deduce that Conan and Shinichi are the same person.

=== Other skills ===
Ran is also very skilled in running a household, including sewing and cooking. She is musically talented, noted to be a very good singer and she can also play the piano well. She also speaks adequate English. She also has astonishing luck and good instincts when it comes to gambling, lotteries, and any game of chance; she has never been known to lose.<ref>[[Volume 8]]</ref><ref name="e75">[[Loan Company President's Murder Case|Episode 75: Loan Company President's Murder Case]]</ref> Likewise, Ran has shown very alert senses in darkness, able to notice an attacker with a weapon and strike to protect herself.<ref>File 041 - The First Victim!</ref> She was also shown to be very fast when needed, such as dodging a bullet in [[The Raven Chaser|Movie 13: The Raven Chaser]].

==Appellations==

== Plot overview ==
=== Doubts about Conan's identity ===

In time, Ran comes to suspect that Conan is actually Shinichi, despite what her common sense would say, but he always manages to trick her and prove her wrong. There are, however, occasions where she appears to be sure that Shinichi and Conan are one and the same.

[[File:007-1.png|right|thumb|Episode 007]]
====Monthly Presents Case (Manga: [[Volume 3|026-029]], Anime: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case|007]])====
The first time Ran suspects Conan is [[episode 7]]. After seeing how Conan, like Shinichi, can deduce someone's occupation by just touching the person's hand, Ran becomes very suspicious and keeps an eye on Conan during the whole case. However, Professor Agasa calls Ran with the voice changing bowtie at the end, freeing Conan of suspicion for a while.

[[File:096-1.png|thumb|left|Episode 096]]
====Suspicious Uncle Case (Manga: [[Volume 14|131-134]], Anime: [[The Cornered Famous Detective! Two Big Murder Cases|96]])====
[[The Cornered Famous Detective! Two Big Murder Cases|Another time]], when Ran finds Conan asleep on the sofa, she takes off his glasses and notices the striking resemblance he has to Shinichi as a child. She later confronts Conan about this resemblance, his similar powers of deduction, and even his shared lack of any musical knowledge. However, Shinichi's mother unexpectedly shows up and covers for Conan by explaining that Conan resembles Shinichi because they are distant relatives and that Conan possesses Shinichi's deductive ability because he admires Shinichi and learns from him.

[[File:191-1.png|right|thumb|Episode 191]]

==== The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume 26|256-257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|191]])====
Despite apologizing to Conan for doubting him, Ran does not lose her suspicions, but keeps them to herself for awhile, as noted by [[Yukiko]], telling Conan that Ran's last smile wasn't convincing her, immediately realising that the girl wasn't satisfied with her last answer and that she is keeping her suspicions for herself until she finds real proof.<ref>[[Volume 26|Volume 26, File 254: "An Infatuated Heart"]]</ref> [[The Desperate Revival|When Conan is critically injured]] and requires a blood donation, Ran donates her blood without hesitation, knowing she and Shinichi share the same rare blood type. Since this act proves Ran's suspicions are correct, with the help of [[Ai Haibara]], Conan manages to fool Ran by allowing Shinichi to appear before her while Conan (Ai Haibara in disguise) is present.

[[File:Ran_suspecting_Conan.jpg|left|thumb|Episode 400]]

====Suspicious Cellphone Case (Manga: [[Volume 47|483]], Anime: [[Ran's Suspicions|400]])====
In [[Ran's Suspicions]], Conan once forgets his cell phone on the couch and Ran, in the room at the time, remembers to send an email to Shinichi to let him know that she's going with her father on a case and that his presence would be most welcome as Kogoro could use the help. Right after sending the message, Conan's phone starts vibrating. Ran, quite perplexed by the perfect timing, checks his phone only to discover a new email (she hasn't seen the content yet). At that moment, Conan enters the room, and seeing his phone in Ran's hands, rushes towards it while shouting and grabs it back asking: "''Did you look?''". He quickly understands that Ran's email may have risen doubts about his identity.<ref name="e398">[[The Weird Family's Commission|Episode 398-399: The Weird Family's Commission]]</ref>

Following this event, Ran first believes that Shinichi often contacts Conan without her knowing, which would in some way explain how he always seems to help out on cases. Later on, after seeing Conan give an important clue to the investigation team without making use of his cell phone (to eventually contact Shinichi like she was suspecting), she starts to believe that Conan is actually Shinichi thinking that past occurrences of both being present at the same time was just a trick he used to fool her.<ref name="e398" />

At the end of the day, Ran is able to retrieve Conan's phone. Late at night, after waiting for everybody to go to bed, she tries to get past the phone's PIN code to check whether her email is there or not. This, to her, would be undeniable proof that Conan is indeed Shinichi. After finally guessing the number equivalent of "Sherlock" to be the PIN code, she's surprised not to see her email there. She instantly tries a few times to resend another email but nothing comes up on Conan's phone. That's when Shinichi calls her complaining about the numerous emails she's been sending. Conan, then knocks at the door and claims back his phone saying that he didn't want people looking inside because of messages he received from a girl he likes. It is later showed that Conan actually exchanged his phone with Agasa's (which are both of the same model) and used his phone upstairs to call Ran, while she was experimenting with the Professor's phone, to create this whole alibi. Shinichi then tells Ran that she now knows his phone number. And Ran, pleased with the situation, clears her mind out of all suspicions she had about Conan's identity<ref>[[Ran's Suspicions|Episode 400: Ran's Suspicions]]</ref> - at least, consciously.

[[File:574-1.png|right|thumb|Episode 574]]
====Kazuha's Charm Case (Manga: [[Volume 66|694-695]], Anime: [[The Whereabouts of the Embarrassing Charm|574]])====
During "[[The Whereabouts of the Embarrassing Charm]]" case we can see that Ran's suspicions are arising again. This is thanks to [[Heiji Hattori|Heiji]], who openly revealed the fingerprint matching during the "Murderer, Shinichi Kudo" case. [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] gave a likely (but not to Conan or Heiji) explanation on how Shinichi's fingerprints got onto the handcuff's piece of chain. However, for some reason Ran talked directly to Conan, which he pointed out that she is talking to the wrong person. Unconsciously she thinks she is talking to Shinichi.

[[File:691-13.png|left|thumb|Episode 691]]

====Cold Case (Manga: [[Volume 77|813-814]], Anime: [[Yusaku Kudo's Cold Case|691]])====
In [[Volume 77|manga chapter 814]] / [[Yusaku_Kudo%27s_Cold_Case|Anime episode 690-691]], Conan and the girls solve a case similar to one [[Yusaku Kudo]] abandoned 10 years ago. While explaining the solution, Conan talks so convincingly that Ran feels a strong impression that Shinichi is the one speaking. It unnerves her to the point where she stops Conan, but he states that he's only reading Shinichi's e-mail.

====Eri Kisaki Abduction Case (Manga: [[Volume 93|984-986]] , Anime: TBA)====
When [[Eri]] was kidnapped, Ran became suspicious of Conan's identity after witnessing Conan's deductions and skills that lead them to the place where her mother was kidnapped. Ran told Conan that he must be Shinichi, but Conan manages to deceive her by recording himself speaking with Shinichi's voice giving advices to her mother so she wouldn't be involved in the same case, which made Ran lose suspicions,much to Conan's relief.

==Non-Canon Plot overview==
====Movie 3: [[The Last Wizard of the Century]]====
[[File:Movie3.jpg|thumb|right|200px]]

In Movie 3 when Natsumi and Seiran are revealing the date of their birthdays, which are May 3rd and May 5th, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] reveals his birthday is on May 4th. Ran is shocked as Conan's birthday is the same date as Shinichi's birthday. Ran begins to doubt Conan's identity and begins to suspect he and Shinichi are the same person, but she soon brushes off her beliefs, knowing it's a ridiculous possibility. However, despite her earlier remark, Ran continues to be suspicious of Conan throughout the movie as she keeps a close eye on him and listens closely whenever he is making a deduction, even telling her father to be quiet at one point. Later, when the Scorpion is about to shoot Ran, Conan hurriedly pushes Ran to avoid the bullet. In that moment, Ran imagines Conan to be Shinichi, thus increasing her suspicions of them being the same person. Later, when Ran and everyone escape and witness the burning castle, everyone becomes worried about Conan. Ran refers to Conan as "Shinichi" as she witnesses the castle burning, confirming that Ran officially believes that Shinichi and Conan are the same person.

Later at the Mouri Detective Agency, Ran and Conan talk, where Ran thanks him for saving her, but reveals he acted very much like [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]]. Ran begins to cry and asks Conan if she isn't crazy for thinking he and Shinichi are one and the same. Upon witnessing Ran crying as she reveals her suspicions, Conan realizes that he has to tell her the truth, but when he is about to reveal himself, Kid appears as Shinichi, making Ran believe once again that Shinichi and Conan are not the same.

==== Shinichi Kudo ====
{{main|Shinichi Kudo and Ran Mouri}}
[[Image:Shinichi and Ran.jpg|thumb|right|225px|Shinichi and Ran]]
[[Shinichi Kudo]] and Ran Mouri have been friends ever since childhood.<ref>[[Shinichi Kudo's Childhood Adventure|Episode 472-473: Shinichi Kudo's Childhood Adventure]]</ref> As teenagers, their closeness has developed into romantic feelings for each other. Ran recalls that she realized she is in love with Shinichi during their trip to New York together.<ref>[[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|Episode 286-288: Shinichi Kudo's New York Case]]</ref> However, when Shinichi vanishes and Conan appears, her regard for Shinichi is mostly subsumed by her worry for his well-being. Conan tries to call her using his bowtie to impersonate his usual voice in order to allay her fears, but his long absence with no explanation other than a "tough case to solve" leaves her worried and hurt that even the times he does briefly appear, he vanishes before anything meaningful can be said. Shinichi also loves Ran and hates to see her hurt either emotionally or physically. Even as Conan he is very protective of her. For a long time, Shinichi has said nothing of his feelings so that his absence won't hurt Ran worse than it already does; he also wishes to tell Ran the truth about his identity but chooses her safety above their happiness. Currently, she appears to have consciously accepted that Shinichi is ''not'' Conan, although she seems to know his identity subconsciously.

[[File:Shinichi Confesses.jpg|thumb|225px|[[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] reveals his feelings for Ran.]]
Ran and Shinichi have shared many romantic moments, such as when Shinichi bought Ran a pair of red gloves for Christmas,<ref name=Karaoke>[[Karaoke Box Murder Case|Episode 42: Karaoke Box Murder Case]]</ref> or when he pretended that as Shinichi, while she was asleep he ate the Valentine's Day chocolate that she had made for him.<ref>[[The Truth Behind Valentine's|Episode 266-268: The Truth Behind Valentine's]]</ref> In London, Ran's distress at Shinichi's seeming coldness to her care for him led Shinichi to confess his feelings for her—an act that left Ran so stunned that she didn't say anything about her own feelings in return. Sonoko speculates that Ran's omission will make Shinichi move on, but Conan is well aware of Ran's feelings already. Shinichi and Ran also appear to share a close empathic link due to their strong feelings for each other, making them almost impossibly aware of when the other is in extreme danger, and often able to sense the other's worried thoughts.<ref>[[Volume_36#File_372_-_The_Most_in_This_World...|Volume 36, File 372: "The Most in This World..."]] and [[Volume_37#File_373_-_Bye_Bye| Volume 37, File 373: "Bye-Bye"]]</ref>

Upon turning to Conan, Shinichi always longs to go back to his former body, having Ran as the primary reason. However, Ran sometimes shows a tendency to be angry and is ready to beat up Shinichi if he appears, which makes Shinichi glad to be stuck at Conan's body for the time being.

==== Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki ====
{{main|Mouri family}}
Ran remains close to both [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] and [[Eri Kisaki|Eri]] even though they have been separated for ten years. Her constant hope is that they finally get together again, and on occasion she even plays (re-)matchmaker by arranging not-so-accidental meetings between them. However, while possible, any reunion has so far been constantly hampered by their mutual stubbornness as well as the occasional criminal incident taking place in the immediate vicinity.

==== Kazuha Toyama ====
Despite having rather different temperaments and personalities, Kazuha and Ran have several things in common, including: proficiency in a martial art, father's connection to police work and detective work, and detective-obsessed childhood love interests. Kazuha was initially cold and rude to Ran, suspecting her of being interested in Heiji. However, thanks to Kazuha's frankness and Ran's accommodating nature, the girls quickly overcame this misunderstanding. They have since become close friends and seem to regard each other as confidantes, since they are in similar romantic situations: Ran and Shinichi cannot confess their feelings for each other, as Shinichi is, aside from telephone calls, physically absent from her life, and Kazuha and Heiji cannot confess their feelings for each other due to their own stubbornness and irascibility. After learning that Shinichi basically confessed his own romantic feelings for Ran, Kazuha strongly encouraged Ran to reveal her own back to him. While Conan/Shinichi and Heiji are on cases together, Ran and Kazuha almost always spend the time together. When Kazuha visits the Mouris' in Tokyo with Heiji, she is shown to share Ran's bed.

==== Heiji Hattori ====
[[Heiji]] acts brotherly toward Ran, at several occasions, he often called her "sister" (neechan in Japanese). 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. Despite this, they have become very good friends.

==== Sonoko Suzuki ====
[[Image:Ran and Sonoko.jpg|thumb|right|225px|Ran and Sonoko]]
[[File:691-6.png|thumb|left|Sonoko likes to tease Ran]]

[[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]] and Ran have been best friends ever since they were children.<ref name=Magic>[[Magic File 3: Mahjong Pieces and the Memories from Tanabata|Magic File 3: Mahjong Pieces and the Memories from Tanabata]]</ref> Sonoko was often there to help Ran whenever she was bullied by other school children, more so than even [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]].<ref name=Magic /> Sonoko and Ran are often shown walking together after school. Sonoko often invites Ran to join her on trips or events hosted by the Suzuki family (most commonly her [[Jirokichi Suzuki|uncle]]'s showdowns with [[Kaitou Kid]]). They also go out shopping or to karaoke together.<ref name=Karaoke />

Sonoko once said to a murderer what she thought about friendship: "So what if friendship is unreliable and fragile! That way when you communicate with your heart, you can feel the warmth inside. If it were as hard as some chattering iron plate, you wouldn’t feel the warmth, y’know?"<ref name=Loli>[[The Alibi of the Black Dress|Episode 576: "The Alibi of the Black Dress"]]</ref>

Meanwhile, even though Ran knows that Sonoko has a lot of money, she always makes sure that money never gets involved in their friendship, not going to ski vacations with Sonoko because she doesn't have the money, when she knows that Sonoko would pay for her to go.<ref name=Friendship>[[Friendship Can't Be Bought With Money|Episode 329-330: Friendship Can't Be Bought With Money]]</ref> This, along with other things, has helped strengthen the bond between both Ran and Sonoko.

Before meeting [[Makoto Kyogoku|her boyfriend]], Sonoko was sometimes envious that Ran always got more attention from boys,<ref>[[Volume_22#File_219_-_Go_On.2C_Sonoko.21|Volume 22, File 219, Page 4.]]</ref> but this didn't affect the deep friendship between them.

==== Masumi Sera ====
Masumi and Ran are high school classmates who met each other in the past. During the "Which Sweets Show" murder case, when Ran sees Masumi running away from her from behind, she hears the sound of rippling waves and feels a spell is casted on her. After the murder case at the pool in Hotel Hyde Pride was solved, Sonoko says Masumi is a magician, but Masumi denies that. Because the conversation about magicians sparked a memory in Ran's mind, Ran asked her if they met before; unfortunately, Sonoko interrupts them and so the question was never answered.

=== Detective Boys ===
==== Ai Haibara ====
[[Image:Ran saves Ai aspect ratio fixed.jpg|thumb|right|225px|Ran saved Ai Haibara as she was about to be shot by [[Vermouth]] and [[Calvados]].]]
There are instances where [[Haibara]] will caution Conan from actions that involve Ran, though it's assumed this is due merely to the fact that she wants to keep her identity hidden. At one point, she was very cold and distant towards Ran, just like she was to most other people. Ran believed that it was because that Haibara had hated her.<ref>[[The Mystery in the Net|Episode 246-247: The Mystery in the Net]]</ref> However, later that day, after hearing Ran speak about the nature of justice to a criminal, Haibara finally properly introduced herself to Ran and they slowly became friends.

Haibara considers Ran to resemble her older sister, Akemi Miyano, so she takes special interest in protecting her. These feelings began after Ran jumped through a slew of bullets from [[Calvados]] (and later [[Vermouth]]), to save Haibara and hold her down to the ground to shield her from the gunfire.<ref name="e345">[[Head-to-Head Match With the Black Organization; Two Mysteries of the Night of the Full Moon|Episode 345: Head-to-Head Match With the Black Organization; Two Mysteries of the Night of the Full Moon]]</ref> Haibara is reminded of Akemi, and begins to treat Ran with more personal investment. When at a later point Haibara learns that [[Korn]], [[Chianti]], and the rest of the Black Organization are lurking about, Haibara begs for Ran to stay at Agasa's house, immediately thinking of her own sister's death, and wanting to keep Ran safe.<ref>[[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out!|Episode 425: Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out!]]</ref>

=== Black Organization ===
[[Image:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|left|225px|Ran saved Vermouth (who was disguising as a serial killer) back in New York]]
==== Vermouth ====
Ran was a fan of the actress [[Sharon Vineyard]] and is currently unaware about Sharon's double-life as Chris Vineyard and Vermouth. Vermouth has a great deal of respect for Ran and protects her from the Organization's activities because Ran unknowingly saved a disguised Vermouth from falling to her death during the Golden Apple case (even though she was about to kill Ran).<ref>[[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|Episode 286-288: Shinichi Kudo's New York Case]]</ref> Vermouth's codename for Ran is "Angel".

=== Others ===
==== Eisuke Hondou ====
In [[The Blind Spot in the Karaoke Box]], [[Eisuke Hondou|Eisuke]] expresses romantic interest in Ran. He admits to Conan that he loves Ran and claims that he wants take Ran to America to live happily ever after there, and to ask for Shinichi's permission. Conan, without hesitating, refuses his permission, which confirms his true identity to Eisuke.

====Tomoaki Araide====
[[Tomoaki Araide]] and Ran Mouri became friends while Araide was acting as a temporary basketball coach in place of a teacher who broke his leg. During "The Unseen Angle of the Darkness" Conan wrongly came to the conclusion that Ran was attracted to Araide. In truth she wanted to borrow his sweater in order to knit a similarly patterned one for Shinichi. Some anime-original features play with the idea that Araide is interested in Ran, most notably in the OVA story [[The Stranger from Ten Years Later]] where he proposed to her, but this was only a dream of Conan's and can be ignored.

====Subaru Okiya====
[[File:691-4.png|thumb|Ran apologizing to Subaru]]

Ran lied to [[Subaru]] about Shinichi's fact because she felt that something terrible will happen to Shinichi if she did. She made Subaru confused about Shinichi and "Kinichi" but later in [[Yusaku Kudo's Cold Case]], Ran apologizes to Subaru for lying and told him the truth. In this episode, Subaru finds out that Conan is Shinichi.

====Mary====
Before Ran walks home after the murder case at the pool in Hotel Hyde Pride is solved, she turns around and sees Masumi talking to Mary. Ran thinks she has seen that child before.

== Fan theories ==
*''Ran's 17th birthday will play a major role during the main plot of Detective Conan.''

In an interview given on January 3, 2012, Gosho Aoyama revealed that there is an "obstacle" preventing him from revealing Ran's birth date, "but since the birthday hasn't passed Ran is 16 right now".<ref name="Goshodayinterview" />

*''Its possible that Ran actually knows Conan is Shinichi, and is simply hiding it.''

The reasoning behind this is that Ran should know that the Fingerprint evidence is Ironclad, meaning Conan HAS to be Shinichi, and in the Cold Case episode, where Conan should have phrased it as "Shinichi's father" instead of Dad, as anyone reading an email from someone else that was sent to them out loud to someone else would normally do. Another piece of evidence is when Ran talked to Conan about giving him her blood while helping Eisuke out to find his birth records. She brings it up, yet does not question how she knew Conan's blood type, or why Conan never questioned it himself. Additionally, back on the Cold Case file, she stops him while reading the email, and while she does not tell him out loud, the images we see imply she recognizes him as Shinichi, because instead of showing the adult Shinichi, we see child Shinichi. She likely then did this to stop him from revealing this in front of Sonoko and Sera, having him quickly make up an excuse in front of both of them so they don't get clued in. When you piece these three moments together, it is reasonable to conclude she not only knows, but is protecting, Conan/Shinichi's identity consciously, though its highly doubtful she knows why.

She can probably conclude though her father cannot be trusted with the truth.

== Name origin ==
Ran's Japanese name derives from the Japanese rendering of [[Maurice Leblanc|Maurice Leblanc]] (from ''Mouri''su Rubu''ran'', according to Aoyama). Ran (蘭) itself means "orchid," which is also one of the flower tiles in [[mahjong]]<ref name=Magic />.

== Trivia ==
[[File:Ran's cellphone strap.jpg|right|thumb|200px|Ran's cellphone strap.]]
* Her second phone (the pink one) was presented by Shinichi after he accidentally made Ran lose her phone during the [[Shinichi Kudo Aquarium Case]].
* Gosho Aoyama, the creator of the ''Detective Conan'' series, stated that Ran is one of his favorite female characters.<ref>Monthly B.L.T. magazine interview for the 16th Movie Eleventh Striker (approx April 29, 2012) 
Ｑ. 兰など素敌な女の子たちが登场しているが、『名探侦コナン』という作品の中で特に好きな女の子は谁か？ 
Q. Charming girls like Ran appear (in your work). In the work called Detective Conan, which female character do you especially like? 
⇒やっぱヒロインの兰かな。好きなのは兰、そして特别な女の子が灰原かな。こなん通信社の中で灰原の一言もオレが考えているんだけど、ほぼ灰原はオレの代弁者になっているね。あと兰は勇往迈进というか（新一のことを）待っていてくれるのは嬉しいというか…あと强いしね。ちなみに女の子が强いシーンを描くのって嬉しい。今、世良ちゃんも出ているけど、描くのが楽しい…目の下にクマがあるけど(笑)。 
A. I guess it would have to be the heroine, Ran. I like Ran, and the special girl would be Haibara. I think about Haibara's comments in the Conan News Agency, too; she's become my spokeswoman, hasn't she? Ran is full of courage, and she waits for Shinichi, which makes (Gosho?) happy . . . she's strong, too. By the way, I feel happy drawing scenes where girls are strong. Right now, Sera-chan is appearing, too, and it's fun to draw (her) . . . although, she has bags under her eyes (laughs).</ref>
* She keeps a blissful sea cucumber key-ring on her phone, which she demanded from Shinichi as a penalty for causing her to lose her previous phone. Ran didn't actually expect him to buy it, but he did. This made Ran wonder if Shinichi was already in love with her at that time.
* Ran is one of the few characters who use old-fashioned cellphones, instead of trendy smartphones.
* There is a pun relating to the name "Ran" in the 'Shinichi Kudo Aquarium Case', where Ran told Shinichi that she liked to run because of her name (Ran=past tense of 'run').
* Ran (蘭) literally means “orchid”.

'''{{nihongo|Ran Mouri|毛利蘭|Mōri Ran}}''', also known as '''Rachel Moore''' in the [[Funimation]] dub, is a main protagonist in the manga and anime series, ''[[Detective Conan]]''. She is the childhood friend and the romantic interest of [[Shinichi Kudo]] and the daughter of [[Kogoro Mouri]].

==Background==
[[File:Child Ran and Fusae.jpg|thumb|left|First Grade Ran meets [[Fusae Campbell]], ten years before the present storyline, and borrows her umbrella]]
Ran is a childhood friend of [[Shinichi Kudo]]. She is the daughter of [[Kogoro Mouri]], a private detective, and [[Eri Kisaki]], a lawyer. Her parents separated when she was seven,<ref name="m2">[[The Fourteenth Target|Movie 2: The Fourteenth Target]]</ref> and one of her biggest goals is to get them back together. Her best friend besides Shinichi is her classmate [[Sonoko Suzuki]], who often teases her about her relationship with Shinichi. Her other friends include [[Masumi Sera]], [[Kazuha Toyama]] and [[Heiji Hattori]].

Ran first met Shinichi back in Sakura class. Ran began liking Shinichi when she noticed he was wearing a paper name badge like her, so she wouldn't be bullied for being the only one without a proper badge. Unknown to her, her home room teacher was secretly planning to kidnap her, which Shinichi - with his father's help - foiled. Ran seemed unaware of the plot.

When Ran and Shinichi were six, they snuck into Teitan elementary school at night to uncover the truth behind a hat-wearing monster rumor. They met the elder [[Kaitou Kid]] in the school library who played a nasty prank on them before handing over a code inside a leather wallet. With the help of Agasa, Shinichi and Ran partially solved the case and Shinichi started to informally call Ran by her first name. That same year Ran met [[Fusae Campbell]] who was waiting to see if Agasa would appear at their promised meeting place. Fusae gives Ran her umbrella and asks Ran to buy one of her designer purses when she gets older.

Before a year before the series' start, Ran and Shinichi visited Shinichi's parents in New York which they took advantage of, since Kogorō was on a community trip. She was there when Shinichi solved his first case and gained recognition as a detective. They met [[Yukiko Kudo]], his mother, and her actress friend, [[Sharon Vineyard]] (the public face of [[Vermouth]], a member of the [[Black Organization]]). Later that evening, she encountered [[Shuichi Akai]] who warned her there was a serial killer on the prowl in the area. Ran later encountered [[Vermouth]] in disguise as the serial killer. Vermouth would have fallen to her death, but Ran caught her arm and Shinichi helped her pull Vermouth to safety. Due to this, Vermouth gave Ran and Shinichi the nicknames "Angel" and "Cool Guy", respectively.<ref>[[Volume 34#File 350 - Golden Apple 1|Volumes 34-35, Files 350-354: "Golden Apple 1"]]</ref> Vermouth later showed hesitance to kill Ran and later [[Conan Edogawa]] (Shinichi's childhood form) as well,<ref name="e345" /> but whether or not it was because of any emotional attachment is unclear. It was during this trip that Ran realized her true feelings for Shinichi, finally realizing that she is in love with him.

Before the tropical land meetup, Shinichi and Ran visited Beika Aquarium together where Shinchi solved a case. After the case Shinichi accidentally making her drop her new cellphone on a sewer, he promises to replace it and take her to Tropical Land if she wins the Karate Championship as an apology, she also half-jokingly demands her new cellphone to be strapped with a sea cucumber strap, which Shinichi actually got for her.

After Shinichi's disappearance while on a trip to [[Tropical Land]] Amusement Park with her, Ran met Conan, who was introduced by [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] as a "distant relative". At Agasa's request, Ran agreed to look after him, and immediately came to think of him as a surrogate little brother.<ref>[[Volume 1#File 002 - The Great Detective Turned Small|Volume 1, File 2: "The Great Detective Turned Small"]]</ref> Ran has come to suspect Conan's identity multiple times, but Conan always manages (helped by his friends like [[Ai Haibara]] and even [[Kaito Kid]]) to find a sufficient alibi to satisfy her concerns.
{{clearleft}}

== Personality ==
[[File:773-1.png|thumb|Ran is mad at Shinichi for losing her phone.]]
[[File:773-2.png|thumb|"Why would you make me say that?!"]]

Ran's greatest personality trait is that she genuinely cares for those she loves. She is also patient, kind, and nurturing. She has a very overwhelming personality, quickly able to intimidate people when angered. Like Shinichi, she highly values justice to the point of idealism. To avoid making Shinichi choose between her and his important case (which is actually useless because Shinichi has turned into Conan and can't return as of now), she has decided to wait for him to finish it, trusting his promise that he will come back, despite their separation causing Ran a lot of emotional pain. Ran is also very hot-blooded and tends to act on impulses when the people she cares about are involved; the combination of jumping to conclusions and not hesitating to use karate on those who she perceives to have wronged someone have led to several "near-miss" misunderstandings. She is also not above using martial arts as a subtle threat to keep people, including her father, in line. In earlier stories, she would become violently suspicious if she thought Shinichi was philandering, although more recently his confessions (in the [[Holmes' Revelation]] Arc) have led her to trust his intentions.

Ran can be very brave and resourceful when she wants to be, and has rescued Conan from trouble on many occasions. She has remained bold, steady, confident and calm in many situations that would usually cause others to remain frozen in fear, such as being threatened by a gun <ref name="e345">[[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|Episode 345: Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night]]</ref> or surrounded by flames <ref>[[Movie 5]]</ref>. However, she has an irrational fear of the supernatural and is thus — unlike her friend Sonoko — absolutely no fan of anything related to the horror genre.<ref name="e274">[[Truth About the Haunted House|Episode 274-275: Truth About the Haunted House]]</ref> She also constantly tries to reunite her father and mother again, though with little success, thanks to the mutual stubbornness of both parents. Ran is typically unaware of her own attractiveness, and usually remains oblivious when men try to flirt with her, often to Sonoko's exasperation, who believes her wait for Shinichi to be hopeless. If made aware, Ran doesn't respond in kind due to her feelings for Shinichi. Even though Ran is in love with Shinichi, she has repeatedly failed to convey her feelings because she suddenly becomes self-conscious.

Ran is very self-sufficient for her age, since her father Kogoro is often drunk, slovenly, and fiscally irresponsible. She handles many of the Mouri household's financial affairs and all the cooking and housework. She also ensures Kogoro doesn't slack off on his job, is on his best behaviour for client meetings, and she often greets and provides refreshments for potential clients. She also appreciates fine art. Ran is noted by both Shinichi and [[Shuichi Akai]] as one who "cries a lot". <ref> Manga file: "Ran's Tears"</ref>

Ran also seemed to have a sense of noticing when something seems wrong or strange, although she doesn't always figure out on her own what it is. Like in a [[Volume 29#Girl Clubbing Case|case]] where a ganguro woman was killed, Ran could feel that there something that didn't fit in with the victim's look (the killer had switched platform boots with regular shoes). And during the Macademy awards Ran noticed that Shinichi's father who was on TV (who was Yukiko in disguise) behaved 'cute'.

It has happened that Ran, like her father, can become serious about a case, if it involves something personal to her. During the Night Baron murder, where she realized that the most likely suspect was a karate champion, she admired, she decides, after considered what Shinichi would have done in her situation, to try find proof of the champion's innocent. Another time she helped an old classmate, accused of theft, proving her innocent.

Ran also likes to rush wherever she goes, believing both her name and nature to be like the word "Run" from English. She even said to Shinichi, "My name is Ran! I was born to run!"

==Appearance==
Ran is a light-skinned girl of average height. She is slender in frame, yet sports an athletic and curvaceous build. She has big bluish-purple eyes and dark brown hair. Her hair is straight and hip-length, tucked behind her ears with short wavy bangs over her forehead. What was originally a wave in her bangs has evolved into a stylized triangular point as the manga has progressed. Ran is also very beautiful, as described by many characters throughout the series. Many men have become infatuated with her in the series, as noted by Sonoko (much to Sonoko's annoyance). [[Eisuke Hondou]] had openly confessed before Conan that he was in love with Ran (though the statement's truth is somewhat doubted). Ran was once even offered a [[An Elevator Murder Case|modeling job]].

== Abilities ==
[[File:691-16.png|thumb|Ran beats up a gangster]]

=== Martial arts ===
Ran's most notable ability is her great prowess in martial arts; she is a black-belt in karate as well as team captain and ace of her high school team with enough skill to win regional tournaments in her age group.<ref>[[Volume 1#File 001 - The Heisei Holmes|Volume 1, File 1: "The Heisei Holmes"]]</ref> Her skills are also shown comparable to [[Makoto Kyogoku]], a world-class martial artist (and Sonoko's boyfriend), able to effectively attack in perfect sync with him.<ref>[[Volume 33#File 334 - Bloody Valentine 4|Volume 33, File 334: - "Bloody Valentine 4"]]</ref> She is also well-trained in Judo by her father, showing similar proficiency in his signature one-armed shoulder throw. Her deceptive strength and skill have been seen repeatedly, both from her ability to effortlessly smash stone and other very sturdy objects and with noticeable dexterity and agility also take out various and multiple assailants, most with just a single hit. From watching Shinichi play soccer over the years, Ran has also developed similar flexibility and accuracy in her kicks.<ref>[[Movie 16]]</ref> Despite her prowess, she may not always be able to fight if scared too much.<ref name="m2" /> Ran was also unable to fight due to suffering from amnesia in [[Captured in Her Eyes|Movie 4: Captured in Her Eyes]].

=== Physical prowess ===
Despite her slender frame, Ran has considerable raw strength, as seen from prying open a powerless elevator door, and holding up a much-larger Vermouth when she almost fell to her death in the 'Shinichi Kudo's NY Adventure' arc. She is also shown to be remarkably fast, able to quickly react to and knock away falling pipes and likewise dodge a bullet up-close while on guard. Her strikes have also shown similar speed, able to swat down a bee with a single kick. Conan states that Ran has an unusual amount of stamina.<ref name="m9">[[Strategy Above the Depths|Movie 9: Strategy Above the Depths]]</ref>

=== Intelligence ===
Ran is quite intelligent. She was able to solve a few cases on her own, and has been shown to be a better detective than several characters such as Sonoko on a number of occasions. Shinichi/Conan has even acknowledged that Ran is a skillful detective<ref name="e196">[[The Invisible Weapon, Ran's First Investigation|Episode 196: The Invisible Weapon, Ran's First Investigation]]</ref>. Ran also has a very good memory and attention to detail, having used both to contribute to investigations more than once. If Shinichi/Conan had not gone through extreme lengths to fool her, she would have been the first to deduce that Conan and Shinichi are the same person.

=== Other skills ===
Ran is also very skilled in running a household, including sewing and cooking. She is musically talented, noted to be a very good singer and she can also play the piano well. She also speaks adequate English. She also has astonishing luck and good instincts when it comes to gambling, lotteries, and any game of chance; she has never been known to lose.<ref>[[Volume 8]]</ref><ref name="e75">[[Loan Company President's Murder Case|Episode 75: Loan Company President's Murder Case]]</ref> Likewise, Ran has shown very alert senses in darkness, able to notice an attacker with a weapon and strike to protect herself.<ref>File 041 - The First Victim!</ref> She was also shown to be very fast when needed, such as dodging a bullet in [[The Raven Chaser|Movie 13: The Raven Chaser]].

==Appellations==
In the ''Detective Conan'' Franchise, most characters simply call Ran by her name, but characters have another way of calling her. This table shows what Ran call other characters and what they call her.

== Plot overview ==
=== Doubts about Conan's identity ===

In time, Ran comes to suspect that Conan is actually Shinichi, despite what her common sense would say, but he always manages to trick her and prove her wrong. There are, however, occasions where she appears to be sure that Shinichi and Conan are one and the same.

[[File:007-1.png|right|thumb|Episode 007]]
====Monthly Presents Case (Manga: [[Volume 3|026-029]], Anime: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case|007]])====
The first time Ran suspects Conan is [[episode 7]]. After seeing how Conan, like Shinichi, can deduce someone's occupation by just touching the person's hand, Ran becomes very suspicious and keeps an eye on Conan during the whole case. However, Professor Agasa calls Ran with the voice changing bowtie at the end, freeing Conan of suspicion for a while.

[[File:096-1.png|thumb|left|Episode 096]]
====Suspicious Uncle Case (Manga: [[Volume 14|131-134]], Anime: [[The Cornered Famous Detective! Two Big Murder Cases|96]])====
[[The Cornered Famous Detective! Two Big Murder Cases|Another time]], when Ran finds Conan asleep on the sofa, she takes off his glasses and notices the striking resemblance he has to Shinichi as a child. She later confronts Conan about this resemblance, his similar powers of deduction, and even his shared lack of any musical knowledge. However, Shinichi's mother unexpectedly shows up and covers for Conan by explaining that Conan resembles Shinichi because they are distant relatives and that Conan possesses Shinichi's deductive ability because he admires Shinichi and learns from him.

[[File:191-1.png|right|thumb|Episode 191]]

==== The Desperate Revival (Manga: [[Volume 26|256-257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|191]])====
Despite apologizing to Conan for doubting him, Ran does not lose her suspicions, but keeps them to herself for awhile, as noted by [[Yukiko]], telling Conan that Ran's last smile wasn't convincing her, immediately realising that the girl wasn't satisfied with her last answer and that she is keeping her suspicions for herself until she finds real proof.<ref>[[Volume 26|Volume 26, File 254: "An Infatuated Heart"]]</ref> [[The Desperate Revival|When Conan is critically injured]] and requires a blood donation, Ran donates her blood without hesitation, knowing she and Shinichi share the same rare blood type. Since this act proves Ran's suspicions are correct, with the help of [[Ai Haibara]], Conan manages to fool Ran by allowing Shinichi to appear before her while Conan (Ai Haibara in disguise) is present.

[[File:Ran_suspecting_Conan.jpg|left|thumb|Episode 400]]

====Suspicious Cellphone Case (Manga: [[Volume 47|483]], Anime: [[Ran's Suspicions|400]])====
In [[Ran's Suspicions]], Conan once forgets his cell phone on the couch and Ran, in the room at the time, remembers to send an email to Shinichi to let him know that she's going with her father on a case and that his presence would be most welcome as Kogoro could use the help. Right after sending the message, Conan's phone starts vibrating. Ran, quite perplexed by the perfect timing, checks his phone only to discover a new email (she hasn't seen the content yet). At that moment, Conan enters the room, and seeing his phone in Ran's hands, rushes towards it while shouting and grabs it back asking: "''Did you look?''". He quickly understands that Ran's email may have risen doubts about his identity.<ref name="e398">[[The Weird Family's Commission|Episode 398-399: The Weird Family's Commission]]</ref>

Following this event, Ran first believes that Shinichi often contacts Conan without her knowing, which would in some way explain how he always seems to help out on cases. Later on, after seeing Conan give an important clue to the investigation team without making use of his cell phone (to eventually contact Shinichi like she was suspecting), she starts to believe that Conan is actually Shinichi thinking that past occurrences of both being present at the same time was just a trick he used to fool her.<ref name="e398" />

At the end of the day, Ran is able to retrieve Conan's phone. Late at night, after waiting for everybody to go to bed, she tries to get past the phone's PIN code to check whether her email is there or not. This, to her, would be undeniable proof that Conan is indeed Shinichi. After finally guessing the number equivalent of "Sherlock" to be the PIN code, she's surprised not to see her email there. She instantly tries a few times to resend another email but nothing comes up on Conan's phone. That's when Shinichi calls her complaining about the numerous emails she's been sending. Conan, then knocks at the door and claims back his phone saying that he didn't want people looking inside because of messages he received from a girl he likes. It is later showed that Conan actually exchanged his phone with Agasa's (which are both of the same model) and used his phone upstairs to call Ran, while she was experimenting with the Professor's phone, to create this whole alibi. Shinichi then tells Ran that she now knows his phone number. And Ran, pleased with the situation, clears her mind out of all suspicions she had about Conan's identity<ref>[[Ran's Suspicions|Episode 400: Ran's Suspicions]]</ref> - at least, consciously.

[[File:574-1.png|right|thumb|Episode 574]]
====Kazuha's Charm Case (Manga: [[Volume 66|694-695]], Anime: [[The Whereabouts of the Embarrassing Charm|574]])====
During "[[The Whereabouts of the Embarrassing Charm]]" case we can see that Ran's suspicions are arising again. This is thanks to [[Heiji Hattori|Heiji]], who openly revealed the fingerprint matching during the "Murderer, Shinichi Kudo" case. [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] gave a likely (but not to Conan or Heiji) explanation on how Shinichi's fingerprints got onto the handcuff's piece of chain. However, for some reason Ran talked directly to Conan, which he pointed out that she is talking to the wrong person. Unconsciously she thinks she is talking to Shinichi.

[[File:691-13.png|left|thumb|Episode 691]]

====Cold Case (Manga: [[Volume 77|813-814]], Anime: [[Yusaku Kudo's Cold Case|691]])====
In [[Volume 77|manga chapter 814]] / [[Yusaku_Kudo%27s_Cold_Case|Anime episode 690-691]], Conan and the girls solve a case similar to one [[Yusaku Kudo]] abandoned 10 years ago. While explaining the solution, Conan talks so convincingly that Ran feels a strong impression that Shinichi is the one speaking. It unnerves her to the point where she stops Conan, but he states that he's only reading Shinichi's e-mail.

====Eri Kisaki Abduction Case (Manga: [[Volume 93|984-986]] , Anime: TBA)====
When [[Eri]] was kidnapped, Ran became suspicious of Conan's identity after witnessing Conan's deductions and skills that lead them to the place where her mother was kidnapped. Ran told Conan that he must be Shinichi, but Conan manages to deceive her by recording himself speaking with Shinichi's voice giving advices to her mother so she wouldn't be involved in the same case, which made Ran lose suspicions,much to Conan's relief.

==Non-Canon Plot overview==
====Movie 3: [[The Last Wizard of the Century]]====
[[File:Movie3.jpg|thumb|right|200px]]

In Movie 3 when Natsumi and Seiran are revealing the date of their birthdays, which are May 3rd and May 5th, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] reveals his birthday is on May 4th. Ran is shocked as Conan's birthday is the same date as Shinichi's birthday. Ran begins to doubt Conan's identity and begins to suspect he and Shinichi are the same person, but she soon brushes off her beliefs, knowing it's a ridiculous possibility. However, despite her earlier remark, Ran continues to be suspicious of Conan throughout the movie as she keeps a close eye on him and listens closely whenever he is making a deduction, even telling her father to be quiet at one point. Later, when the Scorpion is about to shoot Ran, Conan hurriedly pushes Ran to avoid the bullet. In that moment, Ran imagines Conan to be Shinichi, thus increasing her suspicions of them being the same person. Later, when Ran and everyone escape and witness the burning castle, everyone becomes worried about Conan. Ran refers to Conan as "Shinichi" as she witnesses the castle burning, confirming that Ran officially believes that Shinichi and Conan are the same person.

Later at the Mouri Detective Agency, Ran and Conan talk, where Ran thanks him for saving her, but reveals he acted very much like [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]]. Ran begins to cry and asks Conan if she isn't crazy for thinking he and Shinichi are one and the same. Upon witnessing Ran crying as she reveals her suspicions, Conan realizes that he has to tell her the truth, but when he is about to reveal himself, Kid appears as Shinichi, making Ran believe once again that Shinichi and Conan are not the same.

== Relationships analysis ==

=== Family & Friends ===
==== Shinichi Kudo ====
{{main|Shinichi Kudo and Ran Mouri}}
[[Image:Shinichi and Ran.jpg|thumb|right|225px|Shinichi and Ran]]
[[Shinichi Kudo]] and Ran Mouri have been friends ever since childhood.<ref>[[Shinichi Kudo's Childhood Adventure|Episode 472-473: Shinichi Kudo's Childhood Adventure]]</ref> As teenagers, their closeness has developed into romantic feelings for each other. Ran recalls that she realized she loved Shinichi during their trip to New York together.<ref>[[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|Episode 286-288: Shinichi Kudo's New York Case]]</ref> However, when Shinichi vanishes and Conan appears, her regard for Shinichi is mostly subsumed by her worry for his well-being. Conan tries to call her using his bowtie to impersonate his usual voice in order to allay her fears, but his long absence with no explanation other than a "tough case to solve" leaves her worried and hurt that even the times he does briefly appear, he vanishes before anything meaningful can be said. Shinichi also loves Ran and hates to see her hurt either emotionally or physically. Even as Conan he is very protective of her. For a long time, Shinichi has said nothing of his feelings so that his absence won't hurt Ran worse than it already does; he also wishes to tell Ran the truth about his identity but chooses her safety above their happiness. Currently, she appears to have consciously accepted that Shinichi is ''not'' Conan, although she seems to know his identity subconsciously.

[[File:Shinichi Confesses.jpg|thumb|225px|[[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] reveals his feelings for Ran.]]
Ran and Shinichi have shared many romantic moments, such as when Shinichi bought Ran a pair of red gloves for Christmas,<ref name=Karaoke>[[Karaoke Box Murder Case|Episode 42: Karaoke Box Murder Case]]</ref> or when he pretended that as Shinichi, while she was asleep he ate the Valentine's Day chocolate that she had made for him.<ref>[[The Truth Behind Valentine's|Episode 266-268: The Truth Behind Valentine's]]</ref> In London, Ran's distress at Shinichi's seeming coldness to her care for him led Shinichi to confess his feelings for her—an act that left Ran so stunned that she didn't say anything about her own feelings in return. Sonoko speculates that Ran's omission will make Shinichi move on, but Conan is well aware of Ran's feelings already. Shinichi and Ran also appear to share a close empathic link due to their strong feelings for each other, making them almost impossibly aware of when the other is in extreme danger, and often able to sense the other's worried thoughts.<ref>[[Volume_36#File_372_-_The_Most_in_This_World...|Volume 36, File 372: "The Most in This World..."]] and [[Volume_37#File_373_-_Bye_Bye| Volume 37, File 373: "Bye-Bye"]]</ref>

Upon turning to Conan, Shinichi always longs to go back to his former body, having Ran as the primary reason. However, Ran sometimes shows a tendency to be angry and is ready to beat up Shinichi if he appears, which makes Shinichi glad to be stuck at Conan's body for the time being.

==== Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki ====
{{main|Mouri family}}
Ran remains close to both [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] and [[Eri Kisaki|Eri]] even though they have been separated for ten years. Her constant hope is that they finally get together again, and on occasion she even plays (re-)matchmaker by arranging not-so-accidental meetings between them. However, while possible, any reunion has so far been constantly hampered by their mutual stubbornness as well as the occasional criminal incident taking place in the immediate vicinity.

==== Kazuha Toyama ====
Despite having rather different temperaments and personalities, Kazuha and Ran have several things in common, including: proficiency in a martial art, father's connection to police work and detective work, and detective-obsessed childhood love interests. Kazuha was initially cold and rude to Ran, suspecting her of being interested in Heiji. However, thanks to Kazuha's frankness and Ran's accommodating nature, the girls quickly overcame this misunderstanding. They have since become close friends and seem to regard each other as confidantes, since they are in similar romantic situations: Ran and Shinichi cannot confess their feelings for each other, as Shinichi is, aside from telephone calls, physically absent from her life, and Kazuha and Heiji cannot confess their feelings for each other due to their own stubbornness and irascibility. After learning that Shinichi basically confessed his own romantic feelings for Ran, Kazuha strongly encouraged Ran to reveal her own back to him. While Conan/Shinichi and Heiji are on cases together, Ran and Kazuha almost always spend the time together. When Kazuha visits the Mouris' in Tokyo with Heiji, she is shown to share Ran's bed.

==== Heiji Hattori ====
[[Heiji]] acts brotherly toward Ran, at several occasions, he often called her "sister" (neechan in Japanese). 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. Despite this, they have become very good friends.

==== Sonoko Suzuki ====
[[Image:Ran and Sonoko.jpg|thumb|right|225px|Ran and Sonoko]]
[[File:691-6.png|thumb|left|Sonoko likes to tease Ran]]

[[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]] and Ran have been best friends ever since they were children.<ref name=Magic>[[Magic File 3: Mahjong Pieces and the Memories from Tanabata|Magic File 3: Mahjong Pieces and the Memories from Tanabata]]</ref> Sonoko was often there to help Ran whenever she was bullied by other school children, more so than even [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]].<ref name=Magic /> Sonoko and Ran are often shown walking together after school. Sonoko often invites Ran to join her on trips or events hosted by the Suzuki family (most commonly her [[Jirokichi Suzuki|uncle]]'s showdowns with [[Kaitou Kid]]). They also go out shopping or to karaoke together.<ref name=Karaoke />

Sonoko once said to a murderer what she thought about friendship: "So what if friendship is unreliable and fragile! That way when you communicate with your heart, you can feel the warmth inside. If it were as hard as some chattering iron plate, you wouldn’t feel the warmth, y’know?"<ref name=Loli>[[The Alibi of the Black Dress|Episode 576: "The Alibi of the Black Dress"]]</ref>

Meanwhile, even though Ran knows that Sonoko has a lot of money, she always makes sure that money never gets involved in their friendship, not going to ski vacations with Sonoko because she doesn't have the money, when she knows that Sonoko would pay for her to go.<ref name=Friendship>[[Friendship Can't Be Bought With Money|Episode 329-330: Friendship Can't Be Bought With Money]]</ref> This, along with other things, has helped strengthen the bond between both Ran and Sonoko.

Before meeting [[Makoto Kyogoku|her boyfriend]], Sonoko was sometimes envious that Ran always got more attention from boys,<ref>[[Volume_22#File_219_-_Go_On.2C_Sonoko.21|Volume 22, File 219, Page 4.]]</ref> but this didn't affect the deep friendship between them.

==== Masumi Sera ====
Masumi and Ran are high school classmates who met each other in the past. During the "Which Sweets Show" murder case, when Ran sees Masumi running away from her from behind, she hears the sound of rippling waves and feels a spell is casted on her. After the murder case at the pool in Hotel Hyde Pride was solved, Sonoko says Masumi is a magician, but Masumi denies that. Because the conversation about magicians sparked a memory in Ran's mind, Ran asked her if they met before; unfortunately, Sonoko interrupts them and so the question was never answered.

=== Detective Boys ===
==== Ai Haibara ====
[[Image:Ran saves Ai aspect ratio fixed.jpg|thumb|right|225px|Ran saved Ai Haibara as she was about to be shot by [[Vermouth]] and [[Calvados]].]]
There are instances where [[Haibara]] will caution Conan from actions that involve Ran, though it's assumed this is due merely to the fact that she wants to keep her identity hidden. At one point, she was very cold and distant towards Ran, just like she was to most other people. Ran believed that it was because that Haibara had hated her.<ref>[[The Mystery in the Net|Episode 246-247: The Mystery in the Net]]</ref> However, later that day, after hearing Ran speak about the nature of justice to a criminal, Haibara finally properly introduced herself to Ran and they slowly became friends.

Haibara considers Ran to resemble her older sister, Akemi Miyano, so she takes special interest in protecting her. These feelings began after Ran jumped through a slew of bullets from [[Calvados]] (and later [[Vermouth]]), to save Haibara and hold her down to the ground to shield her from the gunfire.<ref name="e345">[[Head-to-Head Match With the Black Organization; Two Mysteries of the Night of the Full Moon|Episode 345: Head-to-Head Match With the Black Organization; Two Mysteries of the Night of the Full Moon]]</ref> Haibara is reminded of Akemi, and begins to treat Ran with more personal investment. When at a later point Haibara learns that [[Korn]], [[Chianti]], and the rest of the Black Organization are lurking about, Haibara begs for Ran to stay at Agasa's house, immediately thinking of her own sister's death, and wanting to keep Ran safe.<ref>[[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out!|Episode 425: Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out!]]</ref>

=== Black Organization ===
[[Image:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|left|225px|Ran saved Vermouth (who was disguising as a serial killer) back in New York]]
==== Vermouth ====
Ran was a fan of the actress [[Sharon Vineyard]] and is currently unaware about Sharon's double-life as Chris Vineyard and Vermouth. Vermouth has a great deal of respect for Ran and protects her from the Organization's activities because Ran unknowingly saved a disguised Vermouth from falling to her death during the Golden Apple case (even though she was about to kill Ran).<ref>[[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|Episode 286-288: Shinichi Kudo's New York Case]]</ref> Vermouth's codename for Ran is "Angel".

=== Others ===
==== Eisuke Hondou ====
In [[The Blind Spot in the Karaoke Box]], [[Eisuke Hondou|Eisuke]] expresses romantic interest in Ran. He admits to Conan that he loves Ran and claims that he wants take Ran to America to live happily ever after there, and to ask for Shinichi's permission. Conan, without hesitating, refuses his permission, which confirms his true identity to Eisuke.

====Tomoaki Araide====
[[Tomoaki Araide]] and Ran Mouri became friends while Araide was acting as a temporary basketball coach in place of a teacher who broke his leg. During "The Unseen Angle of the Darkness" Conan wrongly came to the conclusion that Ran was attracted to Araide. In truth she wanted to borrow his sweater in order to knit a similarly patterned one for Shinichi. Some anime-original features play with the idea that Araide is interested in Ran, most notably in the OVA story [[The Stranger from Ten Years Later]] where he proposed to her, but this was only a dream of Conan's and can be ignored.

====Subaru Okiya====
[[File:691-4.png|thumb|Ran apologizing to Subaru]]

Ran lied to [[Subaru]] about Shinichi's fact because she felt that something terrible will happen to Shinichi if she did. She made Subaru confused about Shinichi and "Kinichi" but later in [[Yusaku Kudo's Cold Case]], Ran apologizes to Subaru for lying and told him the truth. In this episode, Subaru finds out that Conan is Shinichi.

====Mary====
Before Ran walks home after the murder case at the pool in Hotel Hyde Pride is solved, she turns around and sees Masumi talking to Mary. Ran thinks she has seen that child before.

*In honor of the release of the 15th movie, [[Quarter of Silence]], the official Conan movie website held a popularity poll for the top 10 Detective Conan characters.

*In honor of the release of the 800th manga chapter, Shonen Sunday held a popularity poll/contest containing 91 Detective Conan characters to choose from. Ran placed 6th overall with 612 votes.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://forum.dctp.ws/index.php?topic=8024.msg651566#msg651566|title=Shonen magazine detective conan official poll results published [magazine pic]|date=2012-02-28|publisher=eva|accessdate=2012-02-29}}</ref>

== Fan theories ==
*''Ran's 17th birthday will play a major role during the main plot of Detective Conan.''

In an interview given on January 3, 2012, Gosho Aoyama revealed that there is an "obstacle" preventing him from revealing Ran's birth date, "but since the birthday hasn't passed Ran is 16 right now".<ref name="Goshodayinterview" />

*''Its possible that Ran actually knows Conan is Shinichi, and is simply hiding it.''

The reasoning behind this is that Ran should know that the Fingerprint evidence is Ironclad, meaning Conan HAS to be Shinichi, and in the Cold Case episode, where Conan should have phrased it as "Shinichi's father" instead of Dad, as anyone reading an email from someone else that was sent to them out loud to someone else would normally do. Another piece of evidence is when Ran talked to Conan about giving him her blood while helping Eisuke out to find his birth records. She brings it up, yet does not question how she knew Conan's blood type, or why Conan never questioned it himself. Additionally, back on the Cold Case file, she stops him while reading the email, and while she does not tell him out loud, the images we see imply she recognizes him as Shinichi, because instead of showing the adult Shinichi, we see child Shinichi. She likely then did this to stop him from revealing this in front of Sonoko and Sera, having him quickly make up an excuse in front of both of them so they don't get clued in. When you piece these three moments together, it is reasonable to conclude she not only knows, but is protecting, Conan/Shinichi's identity consciously, though its highly doubtful she knows why.

She can probably conclude though her father cannot be trusted with the truth.

== Name origin ==
Ran's Japanese name derives from the Japanese rendering of [[Maurice Leblanc|Maurice Leblanc]] (from ''Mouri''su Rubu''ran'', according to Aoyama). Ran (蘭) itself means "orchid," which is also one of the flower tiles in [[mahjong]]<ref name=Magic />.

== Trivia ==
[[File:Ran's cellphone strap.jpg|right|thumb|200px|Ran's cellphone strap.]]
* Her second phone (the pink one) was presented by Shinichi after he accidentally made Ran lose her phone during the [[Shinichi Kudo Aquarium Case]].
* Gosho Aoyama, the creator of the ''Detective Conan'' series, stated that Ran is one of his favorite female characters.<ref>Monthly B.L.T. magazine interview for the 16th Movie Eleventh Striker (approx April 29, 2012) 
Ｑ. 兰など素敌な女の子たちが登场しているが、『名探侦コナン』という作品の中で特に好きな女の子は谁か？ 
Q. Charming girls like Ran appear (in your work). In the work called Detective Conan, which female character do you especially like? 
⇒やっぱヒロインの兰かな。好きなのは兰、そして特别な女の子が灰原かな。こなん通信社の中で灰原の一言もオレが考えているんだけど、ほぼ灰原はオレの代弁者になっているね。あと兰は勇往迈进というか（新一のことを）待っていてくれるのは嬉しいというか…あと强いしね。ちなみに女の子が强いシーンを描くのって嬉しい。今、世良ちゃんも出ているけど、描くのが楽しい…目の下にクマがあるけど(笑)。 
A. I guess it would have to be the heroine, Ran. I like Ran, and the special girl would be Haibara. I think about Haibara's comments in the Conan News Agency, too; she's become my spokeswoman, hasn't she? Ran is full of courage, and she waits for Shinichi, which makes (Gosho?) happy . . . she's strong, too. By the way, I feel happy drawing scenes where girls are strong. Right now, Sera-chan is appearing, too, and it's fun to draw (her) . . . although, she has bags under her eyes (laughs).</ref>
* She keeps a blissful sea cucumber key-ring on her phone, which she demanded from Shinichi as a penalty for causing her to lose her previous phone. Ran didn't actually expect him to buy it, but he did. This made Ran wonder if Shinichi was already in love with her at that time.
* Ran is one of the few characters who use old-fashioned cellphones, instead of trendy smartphones.
* There is a pun relating to the name "Ran" in the 'Shinichi Kudo Aquarium Case', where Ran told Shinichi that she liked to run because of her name (Ran=past tense of 'run').
* Ran (蘭) literally means “orchid”.

List of characters who know Conan's identity

2017-06-05T19:22:50Z

Sbrady538: /* Heiji Hattori */

[[File:Op40-8.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Conan and Shinichi from [[WE GO]]]]
Over the course of the series, 22 characters have come to know that [[Conan Edogawa]] is actually [[Shinichi Kudo]] (11 of which are not manga [[canon]]). In addition, [[Ran Mouri]] has noticed similarities between the two and [[Kogoro Mouri]], [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Rei Furuya]] have shown signs of doubting that Conan is just ''"very smart"''. This should not be confused with the [[people who know Conan is really Sleeping Kogoro|people who know Conan is the puppeteer behind Sleeping Kogoro]].

In their respective categories, characters are listed by the order they came to discover (or become suspicious of) Conan's identity.

== Canon ==
So far eleven people have learned Conan's true identity is Shinichi in the manga [[canon]]. Four were told the truth, six discovered it for themselves. How the remaining one became aware of this is unconfirmed.

=== Hiroshi Agasa ===
[[File:Hiroshi Agasa.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] found out in Volume 1, the very beginning of the series during the second chapter. Shortly after Shinichi had been shrunk, he went back to his home, but was unable to enter his house due to his shrunken state. Professor Agasa had soon appeared and Shinichi revealed his identity, although he didn't believe Shinichi even after he displayed knowledge that only Shinichi would know. It wasn't until did Shinichi display his deductions and intelligence did Professor Agasa realize that the young child really was Shinichi Kudo. <ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=1|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=1-59116-327-7 |chapter=File 2 |language=English |location=San Francisco |date=2004-09-07 |page=54}}</ref>

{{clear}}

=== Heiji Hattori ===
[[File:Heiji Hattori.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Heiji Hattori]] found out in Volume 13. Originally when he first met Conan, he didn't realize the truth as he was blinded by his competitive nature to beat Shinichi and prove he was the better detective. During their second encounter in the [[Holmes Freak Murder Case]], he started to realize the similiarites between Conan and Shinchi as well as the fact that neither of them were in the same room together during their first meeting. Due to this, Heiji came to realize that the young child Conan Edogawa was in fact the Famous High School Detective Shinichi Kudo. However, he lacked proof until he secretly witnessed Conan speaking in Heiji's voice after Heiji was knocked unconsciousness by the Stun-Gun Wristwatch. He secretly regained consciousness and witnessed Conan solving the case in his voice and confronted him shortly thereafter. While Conan still refused his claims, Heiji threatened to expose his identity to Ran and thus Conan had quickly confessed the truth of his identity. <ref>{{cite book |last=Aoyama |first=Gosho |title=Case Closed |volume=13 |publisher=Viz Media |date=2006-09-19 |isbn=1-4215-0443-X |chapter=File 1 |language=English |location=San Francisco }}</ref>

{{clear}}

=== Vermouth ===
[[File:Vermouth.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Vermouth]] realized similarities between Shinichi (when he was young) and Conan. She also chose not to betray Shinichi to the Black Organization, most likely because he and Ran saved her when she was disguised as a serial killer in New York.
{{clear}}
=== Eisuke Hondou ===
[[File:Eisuke Hondou.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Eisuke Hondou]] revealed his awareness of Conan's true idenitiy in Volume 60.<ref>''Detective Conan'', File 621.</ref> Originally when he began investigating the whereabouts of his sister, he was still unaware that Rena Mizunashi was his sister or the fact she is an agent of the CIA. When she disappeared, he began investigating and believed that Kogoro was responsible behind her disappearance since he was the last person to see her. However when he began further investigating Kogoro, it lead to him discovering Conan Edogawa is really Shinichi Kudo. He realised that Kogoro's skills as a detective were different before he began "Sleeping Kogoro" and noticed that Conan was always by his side whenever he was solving a case as well as the fact that Shinichi had taken a leave of absence from school around the exact same time.

Upon these discoveries, Eisuke discovered Conan Edogawa was really Shinichi Kudo, but still didn't know how he became small. This reveals that even before they first met, Eisuke knew all along who Conan really was. When he first met Conan, Eisuke purposely fell into him, knocking off his glasses. Then acting as if he couldn't see, he called Conan, Detective Mouri. Later after finding his sister and learning the circumstances, Eisuke revealed his desire to go to America to join the CIA to follow in the footsteps of his father and sister. Eisuke also confesses to Conan that he is in love with Ran and desires to bring her with him to America, but wants to ask for Shinichi's permission after learning that Shinichi and Ran are in love. Due to this, Conan reveals himself as Shinichi Kudo, refusing Eisuke's request and Eisuke then revealed this truly confirms his suspicions and confesses to knowing Conan's true identity all along.

[[Subaru Okiya]] (officially revealed to be [[Shuichi Akai]] in File 898) obtained proof of Conan's identity when [[Yusaku_Kudo's_Cold_Case|he caught Conan pretending to be Shinichi over the phone]].<ref>Chapter 813</ref> Based on some of the questions he asked Ran, he may have deduced Conan was Shinichi very soon after he moved into the Kudo house,<ref>Paper Airplane Case</ref> but had lacked absolute proof up until the phone incident. Since finding out the truth, he teases Conan and has on occasion confronted him regarding his identity, but doesn't further press the issue until Conan is ready to reveal the truth himself. However, while Conan still refuses to speak of his identity, it's revealed he has already realised that Shuichi Akai knows he is Shinichi Kudo.<ref>Just Like a 17 Years Old Crime Scene</ref>
{{clear}}

=== Masumi Sera ===
[[File:Masumi Sera.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Masumi Sera|Sera]] seems to have known Conan was Shinichi before they first met recently. Masumi remembers Shinichi from some meeting they had in the past and has been since trying to encourage Conan to remember where he met her. In "Conan vs. Heiji, Deduction Battle Between the Detectives of the East and West" episode, it's confirmed that Sera knows when she thinks "Now we already know who's the winner" while looking towards Conan that thinking about the case, referring him as "Shinichi".

=== Mary Sera ===
[[File:Mary.jpg|100px|right]]
In Volume 90 (Soul Detective Murder Case), [[Mary]] told Masumi that Conan is no longer [[Volume 92#A Chance Meeting at the Beach|the same person that she and Masumi met 10 years ago]]. This implies that she is aware that Conan is Shinichi.

== Non-Canon ==

=== Kaitou Kid/Kaito Kuroba ===
[[File:Kaitou Kid.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Kaito Kuroba.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kaitou Kid]] (also known as ''Phantom Thief Kid'') becomes aware of Conan's true identity in [[The Last Wizard of the Century]]. While disguised as [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], Kid had bugged the phones on the Suzuki Financial Group's ship and therefore heard all of the conversation between Conan and Agasa on the phone. Not realizing they were being listened to, Agasa continued to refer to Conan as "Shinichi" on the phone as he normally does. It is assumed that afterwards Kid put two and two together. Kid's knowledge of Conan being Shinichi is confirmed in [[The Lost Ship in the Sky]]. Kid's knowledge of Conan's identity has not been stated in the manga and has not been confirmed by [[Gosho Aoyama]] to be canon, although in the manga Kid is definitely aware that Conan is no mere child.

=== Tokujiro Nagai ===
[[File:Tokujiro Nagai.jpg|100px|right]]
'''{{nihongo|Tokujiro Nagai|長井徳次郎|Nagai Tokujirō}}''', age 72, is the Nagai Toys shopkeeper in [[The Mysterious Boy]]. His wife was hospitalized due to a serious sickness, but he's earnings were too modest to afford her treatments, so he was forced to borrow money from Kuromaru Finance. Tsutomu Oshiro, a 38 years old employee, whenever he came by to check on the investment, callously bullied Nagai, which the old man endured for his wife's sake. But then Oshiro decided to demand repayment from the wife, heedless of her condition. When she heard that her husband had plunged himself into debt, she suffered a breakdown which contributed to her death soon afterwards. Then, Nagai murders Oshiro for revenge.

Upon that revelation, Nagai remembers Conan - or rather, Shinichi - from an incident ten years ago, when one of a group of children visiting his toy shop had dropped a toy engine to the floor, breaking it. Shinichi found out which child had done it, but Nagai kindly refused to punish the offender for this accident. The startlement from this realization convinces Nagai to turn himself over to the police, and Inspector Megure orders a thorough investigation of Kuromaru's dubious business practices. When Megure asks Nagai why he has decided to surrender himself, Nagai replies that a "mysterious boy who has [[APTX-4869|remained unchanged]] for ten years" has influenced him into doing so, as a sort of messenger from his late wife.

== Suspicious ==
Although several characters have caught on to the fact that Conan is much smarter than most children, only a few characters have questioned exactly why he is so smart. Although the [[FBI]] are aware of Conan's intelligence and even talk to him like he is an adult ([[Shuichi Akai]]), they do not seem to be too concerned about how he got so smart, especially since they have not encountered Conan's true self, [[Shinichi Kudo]]. Some of the police like [[Miwako Sato]] and [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] take Conan's deductions seriously, but like the FBI, they seem to believe he is just an exceptionally bright child.

=== Confirmed suspicious ===
==== Kogoro Mouri ====
[[File:Kogoro Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] was the first character to become suspicious of Conan's identity, albeit briefly. In [[Volume 2]], he felt like he had seen Conan from somewhere before, likely the time when Ran was in elementary school.<ref>[[Volume 2|File 10, Page 16]]</ref> Later, he noticed that Conan was once again pointing out things he overlooked, such as that all of the photos proving the suspects alibi had clocks in them. However, he instantly loses his suspicions when Conan spills another envelope of photos for the case, deciding that "a brat is a brat" after all.<ref>Manga Chapter 11: A Perfect Alibi</ref>

In the [[TV Station Murder Case]], Kogoro became suspicious about Conan for the second time. He was invited to attend a television live show as a guest star. However, a murder occurred at the studio. After finding out all the evidences, Conan lured Kogoro to a separate room, lying that [[Yoko Okino]] was in there. Just as usual, he decided to tranquilize Kogoro and used the man to solve the case. Unfortunately, when Kogoro woke up, he began to question Conan about Yoko's whereabouts. He was also suspicious about the fact that whenever Conan tried to pull him outside, he always fell asleep right after. Kogoro angrily grabbed the boy's suit jacket and wanted to "clear things up". Much to Conan's luck, Yoko Okino appeared for real and Kogoro completely lost his suspicions.

==== Ran Mouri ====
[[File:Ran Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Ran_being_suspicious.jpg|thumb|left|Ran suspecting Conan is Shinichi.]]
[[Ran Mouri|Ran]] has on more than one occasion noticed the striking similarities between Shinichi and Conan, being his childhood friend and one of the people that know Shinichi the best.<ref>Episode 96.</ref> She first becomes suspicious during the Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]] when Conan deduces that the client is a surgeon in a manner similar to Shinichi's deductions, but her suspicions are diluted due to Conan playing with the toys. Later, her suspicions are raised due to Conan acting suspiciously mature for a child and then tricked him into saying indirectly that he's Shinichi. At the end of the episode her suspisions are cleared due to Conan being in the agency while Shinichi( Agasa using a voice changer to mimic)calls the agency.<ref>Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]]</ref> In [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!|Episode 96]], she sees Conan without his glasses and notices he looks exactly the same as Shinichi when he was a child. She even tries to confront him about it, but [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] then arrives and claims that Conan is her distant nephew.<ref>Episode 96: [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!]]</ref> Later on, in [[The Desperate Revival]], it is revealed that Ran believes Conan is Shinichi and is waiting for him to tell her.<ref>Episodes 188-193: [[The Desperate Revival]]</ref> She is only dissuaded from this when Shinichi appears at the same time that Conan does. It turns out that Haibara has given Conan a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]] that will return him to Kudo Shinichi and disguised herself as Conan. After a text message she sends to Shinichi is received on Conan's cell phone her suspicions are aroused again<ref>Manga Chapter 479: The Suspicious Message</ref>, but Conan uses Agasa's cell phone to call her as Shinichi and messages her his "new" cell phone number.<ref>Episode 400: [[Ran's Suspicions]] Manga Chapter 483: Unlocking It!</ref> Since then, Ran has apparently been too happy with having Shinichi's "secret number" to become suspicious of Conan.<ref> Manga Chapter 484: From Him to Her</ref>
An upcoming suspicion arc has been foreshadowed with Heiji Hattori's omamori and her wondering how Shinichi's fingerprints got on it when only Conan has touched it, coupled with Conan's recent lack of subtlety.
And in the [[Volume 66#Kazuha's Charm Case|Kazuha's Charm Case]], Ran told Conan if he has the resolution of the case yet, hinting that she continue suspecting about Shinichi being Conan.

==== Wataru Takagi ====
[[File:Wataru Takagi.jpg|100px|right]]
When it seemed they would both die while disarming a bomb, [[Wataru Takagi|Detective Takagi]] agreed to follow Conan's instructions in exchange for telling him who he really is. Conan agreed but said he would tell him in the afterlife.<ref>Manga Chapter 372: The Most in This World...</ref> Takagi had also thought to himself that Conan was not just any normal kid prior to this, but he has not made this observation since nor has he asked Conan to explain his answer. It is worth noting however that Takagi is aware of Conan's [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch]] and will do nearly anything Conan asks him to do, including dressing up as a mailman in order to fool some kidnappers. Also, in a recent case Takagi refers to Kudo as "Shinichi-kun", something that is strange considering that the last contact Shinichi and Takagi had (Shiragami case) he still called him "Kudo-kun", and also in the [[Volume 63#Highway Murder Case|Shiragami Case]] he had the same attitude with Shinichi than with Conan in other cases, possibly because he continues suspecting about his identity. However, in the [[Super_Digest_Books#SDB80.2B_questions_translations|Q&A of the Super Digest Book 80+]], Gosho Aoyama stated that Takagi doesn't suspect Conan "even the tiniest bit".

He became amazed by Conan's intelligence by discovering the fake sommelier that tried to poison Princess Mira and how he managed to alert the cockpit of his presence when he jumped onto the plane upon take off.

==== Rei Furuya/Tooru Amuro/Bourbon ====
[[File:Rei Furuya.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Rei Furuya|Rei]] suspects Conan is creating the Sleeping Kogoro, but it is unclear if he has any suspicions about Conan's identity or relationship to Shinichi. Also, in the final chapter of the [[Volume 85#Scarlet Showdown|Scarlet Showdown]], Conan said to him "liar" and then [[Rei Furuya|Furuya]] responded him "look who's talking", possibly because he also noted Conan is not just a very smart boy. However, Rei knows that there is a relationship between Conan and [[Yusaku Kudo]] since he is letting [[Subaru]] staying at the Kudo house.{{citation needed}} {{clear}}

==== Jodie Starling ====
[[File:Jodie Starling.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] overheard [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] call Shinichi by the first half of his real name: "Shin-Conan". She noted the slip but didn't seem to understand what it meant.<ref>Sometime very soon after Scarlet Showdown</ref>
{{clear}}
==== Shukichi Haneda ====
[[File:Shukichi Haneda.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Shukichi]] noticed that Conan is a skilled detective during their first meeting. During a case, he even writes to his sister [[Masumi]] that there is no problem if Conan is making the deduction. By the end of the case, he sent her an e-mail asking if she has already met the wizard. [[Shinichi]] met Shukichi 10 years ago in the beach, so there is a possibility that Shukichi knows that Conan is Shinichi due to his excellent memory.

=== People who questioned Conan's identity ===

==== Kurumi Shodo ====
[[File:Kurumi Shodo.jpg|100px|right]]
Shodo is blind, and based on Conan's speech manner, she concluded that he was in high school age and just had a high voice. She said to Conan that it was as if Sherlock Holmes was imitating a child.

List of characters who know Conan's identity

Sbrady538: /* Heiji Hattori */

[[File:Op40-8.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Conan and Shinichi from [[WE GO]]]]
Over the course of the series, 22 characters have come to know that [[Conan Edogawa]] is actually [[Shinichi Kudo]] (11 of which are not manga [[canon]]). In addition, [[Ran Mouri]] has noticed similarities between the two and [[Kogoro Mouri]], [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Rei Furuya]] have shown signs of doubting that Conan is just ''"very smart"''. This should not be confused with the [[people who know Conan is really Sleeping Kogoro|people who know Conan is the puppeteer behind Sleeping Kogoro]].

In their respective categories, characters are listed by the order they came to discover (or become suspicious of) Conan's identity.

== Canon ==
So far eleven people have learned Conan's true identity is Shinichi in the manga [[canon]]. Four were told the truth, six discovered it for themselves. How the remaining one became aware of this is unconfirmed.

=== Hiroshi Agasa ===
[[File:Hiroshi Agasa.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] found out in Volume 1, the very beginning of the series during the second chapter. Shortly after Shinichi had been shrunk, he went back to his home, but was unable to enter his house due to his shrunken state. Professor Agasa had soon appeared and Shinichi revealed his identity, although he didn't believe Shinichi even after he displayed knowledge that only Shinichi would know. It wasn't until did Shinichi display his deductions and intelligence did Professor Agasa realize that the young child really was Shinichi Kudo. <ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=1|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=1-59116-327-7 |chapter=File 2 |language=English |location=San Francisco |date=2004-09-07 |page=54}}</ref>

{{clear}}

=== Heiji Hattori ===
[[File:Heiji Hattori.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Heiji Hattori]] found out in Volume 13. Originally when he first met Conan, he didn't realize the truth as he was blinded by his competitive nature to beat Shinichi and prove he was the better detective. During their second encounter in the [[Holmes Freak Murder Case]], he started to realize the similiarites between Conan and Shinchi as well as the fact that neither of them were in the same room together during their first meeting. Due to this, Heiji came to realize that the young child Conan Edogawa was in fact the Famous High School Detective Shinichi Kudo. However, he lacked proof until he secretly witnessed Conan speaking in Heiji's voice after Heiji was knocked unconsciousness by the Stun-Gun Wristwatch. He secretly regained consciousness and witnessed Conan solving the case in his voice and confronted him shortly thereafter. Although Conan still refused his claims, Heiji threatened to expose his identity to Ran unless he confessed the truth. Due to this, Conan was forced to admit his identity and confess the truth. <ref>{{cite book |last=Aoyama |first=Gosho |title=Case Closed |volume=13 |publisher=Viz Media |date=2006-09-19 |isbn=1-4215-0443-X |chapter=File 1 |language=English |location=San Francisco }}</ref>

=== Vermouth ===
[[File:Vermouth.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Vermouth]] realized similarities between Shinichi (when he was young) and Conan. She also chose not to betray Shinichi to the Black Organization, most likely because he and Ran saved her when she was disguised as a serial killer in New York.
{{clear}}
=== Eisuke Hondou ===
[[File:Eisuke Hondou.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Eisuke Hondou]] revealed his awareness of Conan's true idenitiy in Volume 60.<ref>''Detective Conan'', File 621.</ref> Originally when he began investigating the whereabouts of his sister, he was still unaware that Rena Mizunashi was his sister or the fact she is an agent of the CIA. When she disappeared, he began investigating and believed that Kogoro was responsible behind her disappearance since he was the last person to see her. However when he began further investigating Kogoro, it lead to him discovering Conan Edogawa is really Shinichi Kudo. He realised that Kogoro's skills as a detective were different before he began "Sleeping Kogoro" and noticed that Conan was always by his side whenever he was solving a case as well as the fact that Shinichi had taken a leave of absence from school around the exact same time.

Upon these discoveries, Eisuke discovered Conan Edogawa was really Shinichi Kudo, but still didn't know how he became small. This reveals that even before they first met, Eisuke knew all along who Conan really was. When he first met Conan, Eisuke purposely fell into him, knocking off his glasses. Then acting as if he couldn't see, he called Conan, Detective Mouri. Later after finding his sister and learning the circumstances, Eisuke revealed his desire to go to America to join the CIA to follow in the footsteps of his father and sister. Eisuke also confesses to Conan that he is in love with Ran and desires to bring her with him to America, but wants to ask for Shinichi's permission after learning that Shinichi and Ran are in love. Due to this, Conan reveals himself as Shinichi Kudo, refusing Eisuke's request and Eisuke then revealed this truly confirms his suspicions and confesses to knowing Conan's true identity all along.

[[Subaru Okiya]] (officially revealed to be [[Shuichi Akai]] in File 898) obtained proof of Conan's identity when [[Yusaku_Kudo's_Cold_Case|he caught Conan pretending to be Shinichi over the phone]].<ref>Chapter 813</ref> Based on some of the questions he asked Ran, he may have deduced Conan was Shinichi very soon after he moved into the Kudo house,<ref>Paper Airplane Case</ref> but had lacked absolute proof up until the phone incident. Since finding out the truth, he teases Conan and has on occasion confronted him regarding his identity, but doesn't further press the issue until Conan is ready to reveal the truth himself. However, while Conan still refuses to speak of his identity, it's revealed he has already realised that Shuichi Akai knows he is Shinichi Kudo.<ref>Just Like a 17 Years Old Crime Scene</ref>

=== Masumi Sera ===
[[File:Masumi Sera.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Masumi Sera|Sera]] seems to have known Conan was Shinichi before they first met recently. Masumi remembers Shinichi from some meeting they had in the past and has been since trying to encourage Conan to remember where he met her. In "Conan vs. Heiji, Deduction Battle Between the Detectives of the East and West" episode, it's confirmed that Sera knows when she thinks "Now we already know who's the winner" while looking towards Conan that thinking about the case, referring him as "Shinichi".

=== Mary Sera ===
[[File:Mary.jpg|100px|right]]
In Volume 90 (Soul Detective Murder Case), [[Mary]] told Masumi that Conan is no longer [[Volume 92#A Chance Meeting at the Beach|the same person that she and Masumi met 10 years ago]]. This implies that she is aware that Conan is Shinichi.

=== Kaitou Kid/Kaito Kuroba ===
[[File:Kaitou Kid.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Kaito Kuroba.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kaitou Kid]] (also known as ''Phantom Thief Kid'') becomes aware of Conan's true identity in [[The Last Wizard of the Century]]. While disguised as [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], Kid had bugged the phones on the Suzuki Financial Group's ship and therefore heard all of the conversation between Conan and Agasa on the phone. Not realizing they were being listened to, Agasa continued to refer to Conan as "Shinichi" on the phone as he normally does. It is assumed that afterwards Kid put two and two together. Kid's knowledge of Conan being Shinichi is confirmed in [[The Lost Ship in the Sky]]. Kid's knowledge of Conan's identity has not been stated in the manga and has not been confirmed by [[Gosho Aoyama]] to be canon, although in the manga Kid is definitely aware that Conan is no mere child.

In the 13th movie, ''[[The Raven Chaser]]'', Black Organization member [[Irish]] discovers Conan's secret identity. However, instead of revealing it to the Organization, he decides to use that to gain more power with the boss, because of an old grudge he has with [[Gin]] for killing [[Pisco]], his mentor, without orders to do so. He is shot to death by [[Chianti]] before he can do anything.

[[File:Tokujiro Nagai.jpg|100px|right]]
'''{{nihongo|Tokujiro Nagai|長井徳次郎|Nagai Tokujirō}}''', age 72, is the Nagai Toys shopkeeper in [[The Mysterious Boy]]. His wife was hospitalized due to a serious sickness, but he's earnings were too modest to afford her treatments, so he was forced to borrow money from Kuromaru Finance. Tsutomu Oshiro, a 38 years old employee, whenever he came by to check on the investment, callously bullied Nagai, which the old man endured for his wife's sake. But then Oshiro decided to demand repayment from the wife, heedless of her condition. When she heard that her husband had plunged himself into debt, she suffered a breakdown which contributed to her death soon afterwards. Then, Nagai murders Oshiro for revenge.

Upon that revelation, Nagai remembers Conan - or rather, Shinichi - from an incident ten years ago, when one of a group of children visiting his toy shop had dropped a toy engine to the floor, breaking it. Shinichi found out which child had done it, but Nagai kindly refused to punish the offender for this accident. The startlement from this realization convinces Nagai to turn himself over to the police, and Inspector Megure orders a thorough investigation of Kuromaru's dubious business practices. When Megure asks Nagai why he has decided to surrender himself, Nagai replies that a "mysterious boy who has [[APTX-4869|remained unchanged]] for ten years" has influenced him into doing so, as a sort of messenger from his late wife.

[[Shinichi]] met Shukichi 10 years ago in the beach, so there is a possibility that Shukichi knows that Conan is Shinichi due to his excellent memory.

Sbrady538: /* Hiroshi Agasa */

[[File:Op40-8.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Conan and Shinichi from [[WE GO]]]]
Over the course of the series, 22 characters have come to know that [[Conan Edogawa]] is actually [[Shinichi Kudo]] (11 of which are not manga [[canon]]). In addition, [[Ran Mouri]] has noticed similarities between the two and [[Kogoro Mouri]], [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Rei Furuya]] have shown signs of doubting that Conan is just ''"very smart"''. This should not be confused with the [[people who know Conan is really Sleeping Kogoro|people who know Conan is the puppeteer behind Sleeping Kogoro]].

In their respective categories, characters are listed by the order they came to discover (or become suspicious of) Conan's identity.

== Canon ==
So far eleven people have learned Conan's true identity is Shinichi in the manga [[canon]]. Four were told the truth, six discovered it for themselves. How the remaining one became aware of this is unconfirmed.

=== Hiroshi Agasa ===
[[File:Hiroshi Agasa.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] found out in Volume 1, the very beginning of the series during the second chapter. Shortly after Shinichi had been shrunk, he went back to his home, but was unable to enter his house due to his shrunken state. Professor Agasa had soon appeared and Shinichi revealed his identity, although he didn't believe Shinichi even after he displayed knowledge that only Shinichi would know. It wasn't until did Shinichi display his deductions and intelligence did Professor Agasa realize that the young child really was Shinichi Kudo. <ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=1|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=1-59116-327-7 |chapter=File 2 |language=English |location=San Francisco |date=2004-09-07 |page=54}}</ref>

=== Vermouth ===
[[File:Vermouth.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Vermouth]] realized similarities between Shinichi (when he was young) and Conan. She also chose not to betray Shinichi to the Black Organization, most likely because he and Ran saved her when she was disguised as a serial killer in New York.
{{clear}}
=== Eisuke Hondou ===
[[File:Eisuke Hondou.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Eisuke Hondou]] revealed his awareness of Conan's true idenitiy in Volume 60.<ref>''Detective Conan'', File 621.</ref> Originally when he began investigating the whereabouts of his sister, he was still unaware that Rena Mizunashi was his sister or the fact she is an agent of the CIA. When she disappeared, he began investigating and believed that Kogoro was responsible behind her disappearance since he was the last person to see her. However when he began further investigating Kogoro, it lead to him discovering Conan Edogawa is really Shinichi Kudo. He realised that Kogoro's skills as a detective were different before he began "Sleeping Kogoro" and noticed that Conan was always by his side whenever he was solving a case as well as the fact that Shinichi had taken a leave of absence from school around the exact same time.

Upon these discoveries, Eisuke discovered Conan Edogawa was really Shinichi Kudo, but still didn't know how he became small. This reveals that even before they first met, Eisuke knew all along who Conan really was. When he first met Conan, Eisuke purposely fell into him, knocking off his glasses. Then acting as if he couldn't see, he called Conan, Detective Mouri. Later after finding his sister and learning the circumstances, Eisuke revealed his desire to go to America to join the CIA to follow in the footsteps of his father and sister. Eisuke also confesses to Conan that he is in love with Ran and desires to bring her with him to America, but wants to ask for Shinichi's permission after learning that Shinichi and Ran are in love. Due to this, Conan reveals himself as Shinichi Kudo, refusing Eisuke's request and Eisuke then revealed this truly confirms his suspicions and confesses to knowing Conan's true identity all along.

[[Subaru Okiya]] (officially revealed to be [[Shuichi Akai]] in File 898) obtained proof of Conan's identity when [[Yusaku_Kudo's_Cold_Case|he caught Conan pretending to be Shinichi over the phone]].<ref>Chapter 813</ref> Based on some of the questions he asked Ran, he may have deduced Conan was Shinichi very soon after he moved into the Kudo house,<ref>Paper Airplane Case</ref> but had lacked absolute proof up until the phone incident. Since finding out the truth, he teases Conan and has on occasion confronted him regarding his identity, but doesn't further press the issue until Conan is ready to reveal the truth himself. However, while Conan still refuses to speak of his identity, it's revealed he has already realised that Shuichi Akai knows he is Shinichi Kudo.<ref>Just Like a 17 Years Old Crime Scene</ref>
{{clear}}

=== Masumi Sera ===
[[File:Masumi Sera.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Masumi Sera|Sera]] seems to have known Conan was Shinichi before they first met recently. Masumi remembers Shinichi from some meeting they had in the past and has been since trying to encourage Conan to remember where he met her. In "Conan vs. Heiji, Deduction Battle Between the Detectives of the East and West" episode, it's confirmed that Sera knows when she thinks "Now we already know who's the winner" while looking towards Conan that thinking about the case, referring him as "Shinichi".
{{clear}}

=== Mary Sera ===
[[File:Mary.jpg|100px|right]]
In Volume 90 (Soul Detective Murder Case), [[Mary]] told Masumi that Conan is no longer [[Volume 92#A Chance Meeting at the Beach|the same person that she and Masumi met 10 years ago]]. This implies that she is aware that Conan is Shinichi.

== Non-Canon ==

=== Kaitou Kid/Kaito Kuroba ===
[[File:Kaitou Kid.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Kaito Kuroba.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kaitou Kid]] (also known as ''Phantom Thief Kid'') becomes aware of Conan's true identity in [[The Last Wizard of the Century]]. While disguised as [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], Kid had bugged the phones on the Suzuki Financial Group's ship and therefore heard all of the conversation between Conan and Agasa on the phone. Not realizing they were being listened to, Agasa continued to refer to Conan as "Shinichi" on the phone as he normally does. It is assumed that afterwards Kid put two and two together. Kid's knowledge of Conan being Shinichi is confirmed in [[The Lost Ship in the Sky]]. Kid's knowledge of Conan's identity has not been stated in the manga and has not been confirmed by [[Gosho Aoyama]] to be canon, although in the manga Kid is definitely aware that Conan is no mere child.

=== Irish (Deceased) ===

In the 13th movie, ''[[The Raven Chaser]]'', Black Organization member [[Irish]] discovers Conan's secret identity.

[[File:Tokujiro Nagai.jpg|100px|right]]
'''{{nihongo|Tokujiro Nagai|長井徳次郎|Nagai Tokujirō}}''', age 72, is the Nagai Toys shopkeeper in [[The Mysterious Boy]]. His wife was hospitalized due to a serious sickness, but he's earnings were too modest to afford her treatments, so he was forced to borrow money from Kuromaru Finance. Tsutomu Oshiro, a 38 years old employee, whenever he came by to check on the investment, callously bullied Nagai, which the old man endured for his wife's sake. But then Oshiro decided to demand repayment from the wife, heedless of her condition. When she heard that her husband had plunged himself into debt, she suffered a breakdown which contributed to her death soon afterwards. Then, Nagai murders Oshiro for revenge.

Upon that revelation, Nagai remembers Conan - or rather, Shinichi - from an incident ten years ago, when one of a group of children visiting his toy shop had dropped a toy engine to the floor, breaking it. Shinichi found out which child had done it, but Nagai kindly refused to punish the offender for this accident. The startlement from this realization convinces Nagai to turn himself over to the police, and Inspector Megure orders a thorough investigation of Kuromaru's dubious business practices. When Megure asks Nagai why he has decided to surrender himself, Nagai replies that a "mysterious boy who has [[APTX-4869|remained unchanged]] for ten years" has influenced him into doing so, as a sort of messenger from his late wife.

== Suspicious ==
Although several characters have caught on to the fact that Conan is much smarter than most children, only a few characters have questioned exactly why he is so smart. Although the [[FBI]] are aware of Conan's intelligence and even talk to him like he is an adult ([[Shuichi Akai]]), they do not seem to be too concerned about how he got so smart, especially since they have not encountered Conan's true self, [[Shinichi Kudo]]. Some of the police like [[Miwako Sato]] and [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] take Conan's deductions seriously, but like the FBI, they seem to believe he is just an exceptionally bright child.

=== Confirmed suspicious ===
==== Kogoro Mouri ====
[[File:Kogoro Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] was the first character to become suspicious of Conan's identity, albeit briefly. In [[Volume 2]], he felt like he had seen Conan from somewhere before, likely the time when Ran was in elementary school.<ref>[[Volume 2|File 10, Page 16]]</ref> Later, he noticed that Conan was once again pointing out things he overlooked, such as that all of the photos proving the suspects alibi had clocks in them. However, he instantly loses his suspicions when Conan spills another envelope of photos for the case, deciding that "a brat is a brat" after all.<ref>Manga Chapter 11: A Perfect Alibi</ref>

In the [[TV Station Murder Case]], Kogoro became suspicious about Conan for the second time. He was invited to attend a television live show as a guest star. However, a murder occurred at the studio. After finding out all the evidences, Conan lured Kogoro to a separate room, lying that [[Yoko Okino]] was in there. Just as usual, he decided to tranquilize Kogoro and used the man to solve the case. Unfortunately, when Kogoro woke up, he began to question Conan about Yoko's whereabouts. He was also suspicious about the fact that whenever Conan tried to pull him outside, he always fell asleep right after. Kogoro angrily grabbed the boy's suit jacket and wanted to "clear things up". Much to Conan's luck, Yoko Okino appeared for real and Kogoro completely lost his suspicions.

==== Ran Mouri ====
[[File:Ran Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Ran_being_suspicious.jpg|thumb|left|Ran suspecting Conan is Shinichi.]]
[[Ran Mouri|Ran]] has on more than one occasion noticed the striking similarities between Shinichi and Conan, being his childhood friend and one of the people that know Shinichi the best.<ref>Episode 96.</ref> She first becomes suspicious during the Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]] when Conan deduces that the client is a surgeon in a manner similar to Shinichi's deductions, but her suspicions are diluted due to Conan playing with the toys. Later, her suspicions are raised due to Conan acting suspiciously mature for a child and then tricked him into saying indirectly that he's Shinichi. At the end of the episode her suspisions are cleared due to Conan being in the agency while Shinichi( Agasa using a voice changer to mimic)calls the agency.<ref>Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]]</ref> In [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!|Episode 96]], she sees Conan without his glasses and notices he looks exactly the same as Shinichi when he was a child. She even tries to confront him about it, but [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] then arrives and claims that Conan is her distant nephew.<ref>Episode 96: [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!]]</ref> Later on, in [[The Desperate Revival]], it is revealed that Ran believes Conan is Shinichi and is waiting for him to tell her.<ref>Episodes 188-193: [[The Desperate Revival]]</ref> She is only dissuaded from this when Shinichi appears at the same time that Conan does. It turns out that Haibara has given Conan a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]] that will return him to Kudo Shinichi and disguised herself as Conan. After a text message she sends to Shinichi is received on Conan's cell phone her suspicions are aroused again<ref>Manga Chapter 479: The Suspicious Message</ref>, but Conan uses Agasa's cell phone to call her as Shinichi and messages her his "new" cell phone number.<ref>Episode 400: [[Ran's Suspicions]] Manga Chapter 483: Unlocking It!</ref> Since then, Ran has apparently been too happy with having Shinichi's "secret number" to become suspicious of Conan.<ref> Manga Chapter 484: From Him to Her</ref>
An upcoming suspicion arc has been foreshadowed with Heiji Hattori's omamori and her wondering how Shinichi's fingerprints got on it when only Conan has touched it, coupled with Conan's recent lack of subtlety.
And in the [[Volume 66#Kazuha's Charm Case|Kazuha's Charm Case]], Ran told Conan if he has the resolution of the case yet, hinting that she continue suspecting about Shinichi being Conan.

==== Wataru Takagi ====
[[File:Wataru Takagi.jpg|100px|right]]
When it seemed they would both die while disarming a bomb, [[Wataru Takagi|Detective Takagi]] agreed to follow Conan's instructions in exchange for telling him who he really is. Conan agreed but said he would tell him in the afterlife.<ref>Manga Chapter 372: The Most in This World...</ref> Takagi had also thought to himself that Conan was not just any normal kid prior to this, but he has not made this observation since nor has he asked Conan to explain his answer. It is worth noting however that Takagi is aware of Conan's [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch]] and will do nearly anything Conan asks him to do, including dressing up as a mailman in order to fool some kidnappers. Also, in a recent case Takagi refers to Kudo as "Shinichi-kun", something that is strange considering that the last contact Shinichi and Takagi had (Shiragami case) he still called him "Kudo-kun", and also in the [[Volume 63#Highway Murder Case|Shiragami Case]] he had the same attitude with Shinichi than with Conan in other cases, possibly because he continues suspecting about his identity. However, in the [[Super_Digest_Books#SDB80.2B_questions_translations|Q&A of the Super Digest Book 80+]], Gosho Aoyama stated that Takagi doesn't suspect Conan "even the tiniest bit".

====Keith Dan Stinger====
[[File:Keith.jpg|100px|right]]
He became amazed by Conan's intelligence by discovering the fake sommelier that tried to poison Princess Mira and how he managed to alert the cockpit of his presence when he jumped onto the plane upon take off. Upon witnessing his actions, Keith reveals his suspicions that although Conan may look like a child, he has the mind of an adult and entrusts him along with Jigen to find evidence that proves Duke Gerard murdered Queen Sakura and Prince Gill.

=== Non confirmed suspicious===

==== Rei Furuya/Tooru Amuro/Bourbon ====
[[File:Rei Furuya.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Rei Furuya|Rei]] suspects Conan is creating the Sleeping Kogoro, but it is unclear if he has any suspicions about Conan's identity or relationship to Shinichi. Also, in the final chapter of the [[Volume 85#Scarlet Showdown|Scarlet Showdown]], Conan said to him "liar" and then [[Rei Furuya|Furuya]] responded him "look who's talking", possibly because he also noted Conan is not just a very smart boy. However, Rei knows that there is a relationship between Conan and [[Yusaku Kudo]] since he is letting [[Subaru]] staying at the Kudo house.{{citation needed}} {{clear}}

==== Jodie Starling ====
[[File:Jodie Starling.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] overheard [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] call Shinichi by the first half of his real name: "Shin-Conan". She noted the slip but didn't seem to understand what it meant.<ref>Sometime very soon after Scarlet Showdown</ref>
{{clear}}
==== Shukichi Haneda ====
[[File:Shukichi Haneda.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Shukichi]] noticed that Conan is a skilled detective during their first meeting. During a case, he even writes to his sister [[Masumi]] that there is no problem if Conan is making the deduction. By the end of the case, he sent her an e-mail asking if she has already met the wizard. [[Shinichi]] met Shukichi 10 years ago in the beach, so there is a possibility that Shukichi knows that Conan is Shinichi due to his excellent memory.

=== People who questioned Conan's identity ===

==== Kurumi Shodo ====
[[File:Kurumi Shodo.jpg|100px|right]]
Shodo is blind, and based on Conan's speech manner, she concluded that he was in high school age and just had a high voice. She said to Conan that it was as if Sherlock Holmes was imitating a child.

[[Kaitou Kid]] (also known as ''Phantom Thief Kid'') becomes aware of Conan's true identity in [[The Last Wizard of the Century]]. While disguised as [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], Kid had bugged the phones on the Suzuki Financial Group's ship and therefore heard all of the conversation between Conan and Agasa on the phone. Not realizing they were being listened to, Agasa continued to refer to Conan as "Shinichi" on the phone as he normally does. It is assumed that afterwards Kid put two and two together. Kid's knowledge of Conan being Shinichi is confirmed in [[The Lost Ship in the Sky]]. Kid's knowledge of Conan's identity has not been stated in the manga and has not been confirmed by [[Gosho Aoyama]] to be canon, although in the manga Kid is definitely aware that Conan is no mere child.

His wife was hospitalized due to a serious sickness, but he's earnings were too modest to afford her treatments, so he was forced to borrow money from Kuromaru Finance. Tsutomu Oshiro, a 38 years old employee, whenever he came by to check on the investment, callously bullied Nagai, which the old man endured for his wife's sake. But then Oshiro decided to demand repayment from the wife, heedless of her condition. When she heard that her husband had plunged himself into debt, she suffered a breakdown which contributed to her death soon afterwards. Then, Nagai murders Oshiro for revenge.

Upon that revelation, Nagai remembers Conan - or rather, Shinichi - from an incident ten years ago, when one of a group of children visiting his toy shop had dropped a toy engine to the floor, breaking it. Shinichi found out which child had done it, but Nagai kindly refused to punish the offender for this accident. The startlement from this realization convinces Nagai to turn himself over to the police, and Inspector Megure orders a thorough investigation of Kuromaru's dubious business practices. When Megure asks Nagai why he has decided to surrender himself, Nagai replies that a "mysterious boy who has [[APTX-4869|remained unchanged]] for ten years" has influenced him into doing so, as a sort of messenger from his late wife.

== Suspicious ==
Although several characters have caught on to the fact that Conan is much smarter than most children, only a few characters have questioned exactly why he is so smart. Although the [[FBI]] are aware of Conan's intelligence and even talk to him like he is an adult ([[Shuichi Akai]]), they do not seem to be too concerned about how he got so smart, especially since they have not encountered Conan's true self, [[Shinichi Kudo]]. Some of the police like [[Miwako Sato]] and [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] take Conan's deductions seriously, but like the FBI, they seem to believe he is just an exceptionally bright child.

=== Confirmed suspicious ===
==== Kogoro Mouri ====
[[File:Kogoro Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] was the first character to become suspicious of Conan's identity, albeit briefly. In [[Volume 2]], he felt like he had seen Conan from somewhere before, likely the time when Ran was in elementary school.<ref>[[Volume 2|File 10, Page 16]]</ref> Later, he noticed that Conan was once again pointing out things he overlooked, such as that all of the photos proving the suspects alibi had clocks in them. However, he instantly loses his suspicions when Conan spills another envelope of photos for the case, deciding that "a brat is a brat" after all.<ref>Manga Chapter 11: A Perfect Alibi</ref>

In the [[TV Station Murder Case]], Kogoro became suspicious about Conan for the second time. He was invited to attend a television live show as a guest star. However, a murder occurred at the studio. After finding out all the evidences, Conan lured Kogoro to a separate room, lying that [[Yoko Okino]] was in there. Just as usual, he decided to tranquilize Kogoro and used the man to solve the case. Unfortunately, when Kogoro woke up, he began to question Conan about Yoko's whereabouts. He was also suspicious about the fact that whenever Conan tried to pull him outside, he always fell asleep right after. Kogoro angrily grabbed the boy's suit jacket and wanted to "clear things up". Much to Conan's luck, Yoko Okino appeared for real and Kogoro completely lost his suspicions.

==== Ran Mouri ====
[[File:Ran Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Ran_being_suspicious.jpg|thumb|left|Ran suspecting Conan is Shinichi.]]
[[Ran Mouri|Ran]] has on more than one occasion noticed the striking similarities between Shinichi and Conan, being his childhood friend and one of the people that know Shinichi the best.<ref>Episode 96.</ref> She first becomes suspicious during the Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]] when Conan deduces that the client is a surgeon in a manner similar to Shinichi's deductions, but her suspicions are diluted due to Conan playing with the toys. Later, her suspicions are raised due to Conan acting suspiciously mature for a child and then tricked him into saying indirectly that he's Shinichi. At the end of the episode her suspisions are cleared due to Conan being in the agency while Shinichi( Agasa using a voice changer to mimic)calls the agency.<ref>Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]]</ref> In [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!|Episode 96]], she sees Conan without his glasses and notices he looks exactly the same as Shinichi when he was a child. She even tries to confront him about it, but [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] then arrives and claims that Conan is her distant nephew.<ref>Episode 96: [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!]]</ref> Later on, in [[The Desperate Revival]], it is revealed that Ran believes Conan is Shinichi and is waiting for him to tell her.<ref>Episodes 188-193: [[The Desperate Revival]]</ref> She is only dissuaded from this when Shinichi appears at the same time that Conan does. It turns out that Haibara has given Conan a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]] that will return him to Kudo Shinichi and disguised herself as Conan. After a text message she sends to Shinichi is received on Conan's cell phone her suspicions are aroused again<ref>Manga Chapter 479: The Suspicious Message</ref>, but Conan uses Agasa's cell phone to call her as Shinichi and messages her his "new" cell phone number.<ref>Episode 400: [[Ran's Suspicions]] Manga Chapter 483: Unlocking It!</ref> Since then, Ran has apparently been too happy with having Shinichi's "secret number" to become suspicious of Conan.<ref> Manga Chapter 484: From Him to Her</ref>
An upcoming suspicion arc has been foreshadowed with Heiji Hattori's omamori and her wondering how Shinichi's fingerprints got on it when only Conan has touched it, coupled with Conan's recent lack of subtlety.
And in the [[Volume 66#Kazuha's Charm Case|Kazuha's Charm Case]], Ran told Conan if he has the resolution of the case yet, hinting that she continue suspecting about Shinichi being Conan.

==== Wataru Takagi ====
[[File:Wataru Takagi.jpg|100px|right]]
When it seemed they would both die while disarming a bomb, [[Wataru Takagi|Detective Takagi]] agreed to follow Conan's instructions in exchange for telling him who he really is. Conan agreed but said he would tell him in the afterlife.<ref>Manga Chapter 372: The Most in This World...</ref> Takagi had also thought to himself that Conan was not just any normal kid prior to this, but he has not made this observation since nor has he asked Conan to explain his answer. It is worth noting however that Takagi is aware of Conan's [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch]] and will do nearly anything Conan asks him to do, including dressing up as a mailman in order to fool some kidnappers. Also, in a recent case Takagi refers to Kudo as "Shinichi-kun", something that is strange considering that the last contact Shinichi and Takagi had (Shiragami case) he still called him "Kudo-kun", and also in the [[Volume 63#Highway Murder Case|Shiragami Case]] he had the same attitude with Shinichi than with Conan in other cases, possibly because he continues suspecting about his identity. However, in the [[Super_Digest_Books#SDB80.2B_questions_translations|Q&A of the Super Digest Book 80+]], Gosho Aoyama stated that Takagi doesn't suspect Conan "even the tiniest bit".

====Keith Dan Stinger====
[[File:Keith.jpg|100px|right]]
He became amazed by Conan's intelligence by discovering the fake sommelier that tried to poison Princess Mira and how he managed to alert the cockpit of his presence when he jumped onto the plane upon take off. Upon witnessing his actions, Keith reveals his suspicions that although Conan may look like a child, he has the mind of an adult and entrusts him along with Jigen to find evidence that proves Duke Gerard murdered Queen Sakura and Prince Gill.

=== Non confirmed suspicious===

==== Rei Furuya/Tooru Amuro/Bourbon ====
[[File:Rei Furuya.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Rei Furuya|Rei]] suspects Conan is creating the Sleeping Kogoro, but it is unclear if he has any suspicions about Conan's identity or relationship to Shinichi. Also, in the final chapter of the [[Volume 85#Scarlet Showdown|Scarlet Showdown]], Conan said to him "liar" and then [[Rei Furuya|Furuya]] responded him "look who's talking", possibly because he also noted Conan is not just a very smart boy. However, Rei knows that there is a relationship between Conan and [[Yusaku Kudo]] since he is letting [[Subaru]] staying at the Kudo house.{{citation needed}} {{clear}}

==== Jodie Starling ====
[[File:Jodie Starling.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] overheard [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] call Shinichi by the first half of his real name: "Shin-Conan". She noted the slip but didn't seem to understand what it meant.<ref>Sometime very soon after Scarlet Showdown</ref>
{{clear}}
==== Shukichi Haneda ====
[[File:Shukichi Haneda.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Shukichi]] noticed that Conan is a skilled detective during their first meeting. During a case, he even writes to his sister [[Masumi]] that there is no problem if Conan is making the deduction. By the end of the case, he sent her an e-mail asking if she has already met the wizard. [[Shinichi]] met Shukichi 10 years ago in the beach, so there is a possibility that Shukichi knows that Conan is Shinichi due to his excellent memory.
{{clear}}
=== People who questioned Conan's identity ===

==== Kurumi Shodo ====
[[File:Kurumi Shodo.jpg|100px|right]]
Shodo is blind, and based on Conan's speech manner, she concluded that he was in high school age and just had a high voice. She said to Conan that it was as if Sherlock Holmes was imitating a child.

List of characters who know Conan's identity

Sbrady538: /* Hiroshi Agasa */

[[File:Op40-8.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Conan and Shinichi from [[WE GO]]]]
Over the course of the series, 22 characters have come to know that [[Conan Edogawa]] is actually [[Shinichi Kudo]] (11 of which are not manga [[canon]]). In addition, [[Ran Mouri]] has noticed similarities between the two and [[Kogoro Mouri]], [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Rei Furuya]] have shown signs of doubting that Conan is just ''"very smart"''. This should not be confused with the [[people who know Conan is really Sleeping Kogoro|people who know Conan is the puppeteer behind Sleeping Kogoro]].

In their respective categories, characters are listed by the order they came to discover (or become suspicious of) Conan's identity.

== Canon ==
So far eleven people have learned Conan's true identity is Shinichi in the manga [[canon]]. Four were told the truth, six discovered it for themselves. How the remaining one became aware of this is unconfirmed.

=== Hiroshi Agasa ===
[[File:Hiroshi Agasa.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] found out that in Volume 1, at the second chapter of the series. Shortly after Shinichi had been shrunk, he went back to his home, but was unable to enter his house due to his shrunken state. Professor Agasa had soon appeared and Shinichi revealed his identity, he didn't believe Shinichi even after he displayed knowledge that only a Shinichi would know it wasn't until did Shinichi display his intelligence and deductions did Professor Agasa realize that the child really was Shinichi Kudo. <ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=1|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=1-59116-327-7 |chapter=File 2 |language=English |location=San Francisco |date=2004-09-07 |page=54}}</ref>

=== Vermouth ===
[[File:Vermouth.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Vermouth]] realized similarities between Shinichi (when he was young) and Conan. She also chose not to betray Shinichi to the Black Organization, most likely because he and Ran saved her when she was disguised as a serial killer in New York.
{{clear}}
=== Eisuke Hondou ===
[[File:Eisuke Hondou.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Eisuke Hondou]] revealed his awareness of Conan's true idenitiy in Volume 60.<ref>''Detective Conan'', File 621.</ref> Originally when he began investigating the whereabouts of his sister, he was still unaware that Rena Mizunashi was his sister or the fact she is an agent of the CIA. When she disappeared, he began investigating and believed that Kogoro was responsible behind her disappearance since he was the last person to see her. However when he began further investigating Kogoro, it lead to him discovering Conan Edogawa is really Shinichi Kudo. He realised that Kogoro's skills as a detective were different before he began "Sleeping Kogoro" and noticed that Conan was always by his side whenever he was solving a case as well as the fact that Shinichi had taken a leave of absence from school around the exact same time.

Upon these discoveries, Eisuke discovered Conan Edogawa was really Shinichi Kudo, but still didn't know how he became small. This reveals that even before they first met, Eisuke knew all along who Conan really was. When he first met Conan, Eisuke purposely fell into him, knocking off his glasses. Then acting as if he couldn't see, he called Conan, Detective Mouri. Later after finding his sister and learning the circumstances, Eisuke revealed his desire to go to America to join the CIA to follow in the footsteps of his father and sister. Eisuke also confesses to Conan that he is in love with Ran and desires to bring her with him to America, but wants to ask for Shinichi's permission after learning that Shinichi and Ran are in love. Due to this, Conan reveals himself as Shinichi Kudo, refusing Eisuke's request and Eisuke then revealed this truly confirms his suspicions and confesses to knowing Conan's true identity all along.

[[Ran Mouri|Ran]] has on more than one occasion noticed the striking similarities between Shinichi and Conan, being his childhood friend and one of the people that know Shinichi the best.<ref>Episode 96.</ref> She first becomes suspicious during the Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]] when Conan deduces that the client is a surgeon in a manner similar to Shinichi's deductions, but her suspicions are diluted due to Conan playing with the toys. Later, her suspicions are raised due to Conan acting suspiciously mature for a child and then tricked him into saying indirectly that he's Shinichi. At the end of the episode her suspisions are cleared due to Conan being in the agency while Shinichi( Agasa using a voice changer to mimic)calls the agency.<ref>Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]]</ref> In [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!|Episode 96]], she sees Conan without his glasses and notices he looks exactly the same as Shinichi when he was a child. She even tries to confront him about it, but [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] then arrives and claims that Conan is her distant nephew.<ref>Episode 96: [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!]]</ref> Later on, in [[The Desperate Revival]], it is revealed that Ran believes Conan is Shinichi and is waiting for him to tell her.<ref>Episodes 188-193: [[The Desperate Revival]]</ref> She is only dissuaded from this when Shinichi appears at the same time that Conan does. It turns out that Haibara has given Conan a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]] that will return him to Kudo Shinichi and disguised herself as Conan. After a text message she sends to Shinichi is received on Conan's cell phone her suspicions are aroused again<ref>Manga Chapter 479: The Suspicious Message</ref>, but Conan uses Agasa's cell phone to call her as Shinichi and messages her his "new" cell phone number.<ref>Episode 400: [[Ran's Suspicions]] Manga Chapter 483: Unlocking It!</ref> Since then, Ran has apparently been too happy with having Shinichi's "secret number" to become suspicious of Conan.<ref> Manga Chapter 484: From Him to Her</ref>
An upcoming suspicion arc has been foreshadowed with Heiji Hattori's omamori and her wondering how Shinichi's fingerprints got on it when only Conan has touched it, coupled with Conan's recent lack of subtlety.
And in the [[Volume 66#Kazuha's Charm Case|Kazuha's Charm Case]], Ran told Conan if he has the resolution of the case yet, hinting that she continue suspecting about Shinichi being Conan.

==== Wataru Takagi ====
[[File:Wataru Takagi.jpg|100px|right]]
When it seemed they would both die while disarming a bomb, [[Wataru Takagi|Detective Takagi]] agreed to follow Conan's instructions in exchange for telling him who he really is. Conan agreed but said he would tell him in the afterlife.<ref>Manga Chapter 372: The Most in This World...</ref> Takagi had also thought to himself that Conan was not just any normal kid prior to this, but he has not made this observation since nor has he asked Conan to explain his answer. It is worth noting however that Takagi is aware of Conan's [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch]] and will do nearly anything Conan asks him to do, including dressing up as a mailman in order to fool some kidnappers. Also, in a recent case Takagi refers to Kudo as "Shinichi-kun", something that is strange considering that the last contact Shinichi and Takagi had (Shiragami case) he still called him "Kudo-kun", and also in the [[Volume 63#Highway Murder Case|Shiragami Case]] he had the same attitude with Shinichi than with Conan in other cases, possibly because he continues suspecting about his identity. However, in the [[Super_Digest_Books#SDB80.2B_questions_translations|Q&A of the Super Digest Book 80+]], Gosho Aoyama stated that Takagi doesn't suspect Conan "even the tiniest bit".

====Keith Dan Stinger====
[[File:Keith.jpg|100px|right]]
He became amazed by Conan's intelligence by discovering the fake sommelier that tried to poison Princess Mira and how he managed to alert the cockpit of his presence when he jumped onto the plane upon take off. Upon witnessing his actions, Keith reveals his suspicions that although Conan may look like a child, he has the mind of an adult and entrusts him along with Jigen to find evidence that proves Duke Gerard murdered Queen Sakura and Prince Gill.

=== Non confirmed suspicious===

==== Rei Furuya/Tooru Amuro/Bourbon ====
[[File:Rei Furuya.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Rei Furuya|Rei]] suspects Conan is creating the Sleeping Kogoro, but it is unclear if he has any suspicions about Conan's identity or relationship to Shinichi. Also, in the final chapter of the [[Volume 85#Scarlet Showdown|Scarlet Showdown]], Conan said to him "liar" and then [[Rei Furuya|Furuya]] responded him "look who's talking", possibly because he also noted Conan is not just a very smart boy. However, Rei knows that there is a relationship between Conan and [[Yusaku Kudo]] since he is letting [[Subaru]] staying at the Kudo house.{{citation needed}} {{clear}}

==== Jodie Starling ====
[[File:Jodie Starling.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] overheard [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] call Shinichi by the first half of his real name: "Shin-Conan". She noted the slip but didn't seem to understand what it meant.<ref>Sometime very soon after Scarlet Showdown</ref>

==== Shukichi Haneda ====
[[File:Shukichi Haneda.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Shukichi]] noticed that Conan is a skilled detective during their first meeting. During a case, he even writes to his sister [[Masumi]] that there is no problem if Conan is making the deduction. By the end of the case, he sent her an e-mail asking if she has already met the wizard. [[Shinichi]] met Shukichi 10 years ago in the beach, so there is a possibility that Shukichi knows that Conan is Shinichi due to his excellent memory.

Shodo is blind, and based on Conan's speech manner, she concluded that he was in high school age and just had a high voice. She said to Conan that it was as if Sherlock Holmes was imitating a child.

List of characters who know Conan's identity

Sbrady538: /* Eisuke Hondou */

[[File:Op40-8.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Conan and Shinichi from [[WE GO]]]]
Over the course of the series, 22 characters have come to know that [[Conan Edogawa]] is actually [[Shinichi Kudo]] (11 of which are not manga [[canon]]). In addition, [[Ran Mouri]] has noticed similarities between the two and [[Kogoro Mouri]], [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Rei Furuya]] have shown signs of doubting that Conan is just ''"very smart"''. This should not be confused with the [[people who know Conan is really Sleeping Kogoro|people who know Conan is the puppeteer behind Sleeping Kogoro]].

In their respective categories, characters are listed by the order they came to discover (or become suspicious of) Conan's identity.

== Canon ==
So far eleven people have learned Conan's true identity is Shinichi in the manga [[canon]]. Four were told the truth, six discovered it for themselves. How the remaining one became aware of this is unconfirmed.

=== Hiroshi Agasa ===
[[File:Hiroshi Agasa.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] found out that in Volume 1, at the second chapter of the series. Shrunken Shinichi had to persuade Agasa that the child before him is Shinichi so that he could seek help.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=1|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=1-59116-327-7 |chapter=File 2 |language=English |location=San Francisco |date=2004-09-07 |page=54}}</ref>

=== Heiji Hattori ===
[[File:Heiji Hattori.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Heiji Hattori]] found out this fact in Volume 13 (Holmes Freak Murder Case), as he found Conan speaking in Heiji's voice after Heiji regained consciousness from Conan's stun gun.<ref>{{cite book |last=Aoyama |first=Gosho |title=Case Closed |volume=13 |publisher=Viz Media |date=2006-09-19 |isbn=1-4215-0443-X |chapter=File 1 |language=English |location=San Francisco }}</ref>

{{clear}}

=== Vermouth ===
[[File:Vermouth.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Vermouth]] realized similarities between Shinichi (when he was young) and Conan. She also chose not to betray Shinichi to the Black Organization, most likely because he and Ran saved her when she was disguised as a serial killer in New York.
{{clear}}
=== Eisuke Hondou ===
[[File:Eisuke Hondou.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Eisuke Hondou]] revealed his awareness of Conan's true idenitiy in Volume 60.<ref>''Detective Conan'', File 621.</ref> Originally when he began investigating the whereabouts of his sister, he was still unaware that Rena Mizunashi was his sister or the fact she is an agent of the CIA. When she disappeared, he began investigating and believed that Kogoro was responsible behind her disappearance since he was the last person to see her. However when he began further investigating Kogoro, it lead to him discovering Conan Edogawa is really Shinichi Kudo. He realised that Kogoro's skills as a detective were different before he began "Sleeping Kogoro" and noticed that Conan was always by his side whenever he was solving a case as well as the fact that Shinichi had taken a leave of absence from school around the exact same time.

Upon these discoveries, Eisuke discovered Conan Edogawa was really Shinichi Kudo, but still didn't know how he became small. This reveals that even before they first met, Eisuke knew all along who Conan really was. When he first met Conan, Eisuke purposely fell into him, knocking off his glasses. Then acting as if he couldn't see, he called Conan, Detective Mouri. Later after finding his sister and learning the circumstances, Eisuke revealed his desire to go to America to join the CIA to follow in the footsteps of his father and sister. Eisuke also confesses to Conan that he is in love with Ran and desires to bring her with him to America, but wants to ask for Shinichi's permission after learning that Shinichi and Ran are in love. Due to this, Conan reveals himself as Shinichi Kudo, refusing Eisuke's request and Eisuke then revealed this truly confirms his suspicions and confesses to knowing Conan's true identity all along.

=== Subaru Okiya/Shuichi Akai===

| style="vertical-align: top"|[[File:Subaru Okiya.jpg|100px|right]]
| style="vertical-align: top"|[[File:Shuichi Akai.jpg|100px|right]]

[[Subaru Okiya]] (officially revealed to be [[Shuichi Akai]] in File 898) obtained proof of Conan's identity when [[Yusaku_Kudo's_Cold_Case|he caught Conan pretending to be Shinichi over the phone]].<ref>Chapter 813</ref> Based on some of the questions he asked Ran, he may have deduced Conan was Shinichi very soon after he moved into the Kudo house,<ref>Paper Airplane Case</ref> but had lacked absolute proof up until the phone incident. Since finding out the truth, he teases Conan and has on occasion confronted him regarding his identity, but doesn't further press the issue until Conan is ready to reveal the truth himself. However, while Conan still refuses to speak of his identity, it's revealed he has already realised that Shuichi Akai knows he is Shinichi Kudo.<ref>Just Like a 17 Years Old Crime Scene</ref>
{{clear}}

=== Masumi Sera ===
[[File:Masumi Sera.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Masumi Sera|Sera]] seems to have known Conan was Shinichi before they first met recently. Masumi remembers Shinichi from some meeting they had in the past and has been since trying to encourage Conan to remember where he met her. In "Conan vs. Heiji, Deduction Battle Between the Detectives of the East and West" episode, it's confirmed that Sera knows when she thinks "Now we already know who's the winner" while looking towards Conan that thinking about the case, referring him as "Shinichi".
{{clear}}

=== Mary Sera ===
[[File:Mary.jpg|100px|right]]
In Volume 90 (Soul Detective Murder Case), [[Mary]] told Masumi that Conan is no longer [[Volume 92#A Chance Meeting at the Beach|the same person that she and Masumi met 10 years ago]]. This implies that she is aware that Conan is Shinichi.
{{clear}}

== Non-Canon ==

=== Kaitou Kid/Kaito Kuroba ===
[[File:Kaitou Kid.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Kaito Kuroba.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kaitou Kid]] (also known as ''Phantom Thief Kid'') becomes aware of Conan's true identity in [[The Last Wizard of the Century]]. While disguised as [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], Kid had bugged the phones on the Suzuki Financial Group's ship and therefore heard all of the conversation between Conan and Agasa on the phone. Not realizing they were being listened to, Agasa continued to refer to Conan as "Shinichi" on the phone as he normally does. It is assumed that afterwards Kid put two and two together. Kid's knowledge of Conan being Shinichi is confirmed in [[The Lost Ship in the Sky]]. Kid's knowledge of Conan's identity has not been stated in the manga and has not been confirmed by [[Gosho Aoyama]] to be canon, although in the manga Kid is definitely aware that Conan is no mere child.

=== Hiroki Sawada (Deceased) ===

=== Irish (Deceased) ===
[[File:Irish.jpg|100px|right]]
In the 13th movie, ''[[The Raven Chaser]]'', Black Organization member [[Irish]] discovers Conan's secret identity. However, instead of revealing it to the Organization, he decides to use that to gain more power with the boss, because of an old grudge he has with [[Gin]] for killing [[Pisco]], his mentor, without orders to do so. He is shot to death by [[Chianti]] before he can do anything.

=== Tokujiro Nagai ===
[[File:Tokujiro Nagai.jpg|100px|right]]
'''{{nihongo|Tokujiro Nagai|長井徳次郎|Nagai Tokujirō}}''', age 72, is the Nagai Toys shopkeeper in [[The Mysterious Boy]]. His wife was hospitalized due to a serious sickness, but he's earnings were too modest to afford her treatments, so he was forced to borrow money from Kuromaru Finance. Tsutomu Oshiro, a 38 years old employee, whenever he came by to check on the investment, callously bullied Nagai, which the old man endured for his wife's sake. But then Oshiro decided to demand repayment from the wife, heedless of her condition. When she heard that her husband had plunged himself into debt, she suffered a breakdown which contributed to her death soon afterwards. Then, Nagai murders Oshiro for revenge.

Upon that revelation, Nagai remembers Conan - or rather, Shinichi - from an incident ten years ago, when one of a group of children visiting his toy shop had dropped a toy engine to the floor, breaking it. Shinichi found out which child had done it, but Nagai kindly refused to punish the offender for this accident. The startlement from this realization convinces Nagai to turn himself over to the police, and Inspector Megure orders a thorough investigation of Kuromaru's dubious business practices. When Megure asks Nagai why he has decided to surrender himself, Nagai replies that a "mysterious boy who has [[APTX-4869|remained unchanged]] for ten years" has influenced him into doing so, as a sort of messenger from his late wife.

== Suspicious ==
Although several characters have caught on to the fact that Conan is much smarter than most children, only a few characters have questioned exactly why he is so smart. Although the [[FBI]] are aware of Conan's intelligence and even talk to him like he is an adult ([[Shuichi Akai]]), they do not seem to be too concerned about how he got so smart, especially since they have not encountered Conan's true self, [[Shinichi Kudo]]. Some of the police like [[Miwako Sato]] and [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] take Conan's deductions seriously, but like the FBI, they seem to believe he is just an exceptionally bright child.

=== Confirmed suspicious ===
==== Kogoro Mouri ====
[[File:Kogoro Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] was the first character to become suspicious of Conan's identity, albeit briefly. In [[Volume 2]], he felt like he had seen Conan from somewhere before, likely the time when Ran was in elementary school.<ref>[[Volume 2|File 10, Page 16]]</ref> Later, he noticed that Conan was once again pointing out things he overlooked, such as that all of the photos proving the suspects alibi had clocks in them. However, he instantly loses his suspicions when Conan spills another envelope of photos for the case, deciding that "a brat is a brat" after all.<ref>Manga Chapter 11: A Perfect Alibi</ref>

In the [[TV Station Murder Case]], Kogoro became suspicious about Conan for the second time. He was invited to attend a television live show as a guest star. However, a murder occurred at the studio. After finding out all the evidences, Conan lured Kogoro to a separate room, lying that [[Yoko Okino]] was in there. Just as usual, he decided to tranquilize Kogoro and used the man to solve the case. Unfortunately, when Kogoro woke up, he began to question Conan about Yoko's whereabouts. He was also suspicious about the fact that whenever Conan tried to pull him outside, he always fell asleep right after. Kogoro angrily grabbed the boy's suit jacket and wanted to "clear things up". Much to Conan's luck, Yoko Okino appeared for real and Kogoro completely lost his suspicions.

==== Ran Mouri ====

[[File:Eisuke Hondou.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Eisuke Hondou]] revealed his awareness of Conan's true idenitiy in Volume 60.<ref>''Detective Conan'', File 621.</ref> Originally when he began investigating the whereabouts of his sister, he was still unaware that Rena Mizunashi was his sister or the fact she is an agent of the CIA. When she disappeared, he began investigating and believed that Kogoro was responsible behind her disappearance since he was the last person to see her. However when he began further investigating Kogoro, it lead to him discovering Conan Edogawa is really Shinichi Kudo. He realised that Kogoro's skills as a detective were different before he began "Sleeping Kogoro" and noticed that Conan was always by his side whenever he was solving a case as well as the fact that Shinichi had taken a leave of absence from school around the exact same time.

Upon these discoveries, Eisuke discovered Conan Edogawa was really Shinichi Kudo, but still didn't know how he became small. This reveals that even before they first met, Eisuke knew all along who Conan really was. When he first met Conan, Eisuke purposely fell into him, knocking off his glasses. Then acting as if he couldn't see, he called Conan, Detective Mouri. Later after finding his sister and learning the circumstances, Eisuke revealed his desire to go to America to join the CIA to follow in the footsteps of his father and sister. Eisuke also confesses to Conan that he is in love with Ran and desires to bring her with him to America, but wants to ask for Shinichi's permission after learning that Shinichi and Ran are in love. Due to this, Conan reveals himself as Shinichi Kudo, refusing Eisuke's request and Eisuke then revealed this truly confirms his suspicions and confesses to knowing Conan was Shinichi Kudo all along.

His wife was hospitalized due to a serious sickness, but he's earnings were too modest to afford her treatments, so he was forced to borrow money from Kuromaru Finance. Tsutomu Oshiro, a 38 years old employee, whenever he came by to check on the investment, callously bullied Nagai, which the old man endured for his wife's sake. But then Oshiro decided to demand repayment from the wife, heedless of her condition. When she heard that her husband had plunged himself into debt, she suffered a breakdown which contributed to her death soon afterwards. Then, Nagai murders Oshiro for revenge.

Upon that revelation, Nagai remembers Conan - or rather, Shinichi - from an incident ten years ago, when one of a group of children visiting his toy shop had dropped a toy engine to the floor, breaking it. Shinichi found out which child had done it, but Nagai kindly refused to punish the offender for this accident. The startlement from this realization convinces Nagai to turn himself over to the police, and Inspector Megure orders a thorough investigation of Kuromaru's dubious business practices. When Megure asks Nagai why he has decided to surrender himself, Nagai replies that a "mysterious boy who has [[APTX-4869|remained unchanged]] for ten years" has influenced him into doing so, as a sort of messenger from his late wife.

== Suspicious ==
Although several characters have caught on to the fact that Conan is much smarter than most children, only a few characters have questioned exactly why he is so smart. Although the [[FBI]] are aware of Conan's intelligence and even talk to him like he is an adult ([[Shuichi Akai]]), they do not seem to be too concerned about how he got so smart, especially since they have not encountered Conan's true self, [[Shinichi Kudo]]. Some of the police like [[Miwako Sato]] and [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] take Conan's deductions seriously, but like the FBI, they seem to believe he is just an exceptionally bright child.

=== Confirmed suspicious ===
==== Kogoro Mouri ====
[[File:Kogoro Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] was the first character to become suspicious of Conan's identity, albeit briefly. In [[Volume 2]], he felt like he had seen Conan from somewhere before, likely the time when Ran was in elementary school.<ref>[[Volume 2|File 10, Page 16]]</ref> Later, he noticed that Conan was once again pointing out things he overlooked, such as that all of the photos proving the suspects alibi had clocks in them. However, he instantly loses his suspicions when Conan spills another envelope of photos for the case, deciding that "a brat is a brat" after all.<ref>Manga Chapter 11: A Perfect Alibi</ref>

In the [[TV Station Murder Case]], Kogoro became suspicious about Conan for the second time. He was invited to attend a television live show as a guest star. However, a murder occurred at the studio. After finding out all the evidences, Conan lured Kogoro to a separate room, lying that [[Yoko Okino]] was in there. Just as usual, he decided to tranquilize Kogoro and used the man to solve the case. Unfortunately, when Kogoro woke up, he began to question Conan about Yoko's whereabouts. He was also suspicious about the fact that whenever Conan tried to pull him outside, he always fell asleep right after. Kogoro angrily grabbed the boy's suit jacket and wanted to "clear things up". Much to Conan's luck, Yoko Okino appeared for real and Kogoro completely lost his suspicions.

==== Ran Mouri ====
[[File:Ran Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Ran_being_suspicious.jpg|thumb|left|Ran suspecting Conan is Shinichi.]]
[[Ran Mouri|Ran]] has on more than one occasion noticed the striking similarities between Shinichi and Conan, being his childhood friend and one of the people that know Shinichi the best.<ref>Episode 96.</ref> She first becomes suspicious during the Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]] when Conan deduces that the client is a surgeon in a manner similar to Shinichi's deductions, but her suspicions are diluted due to Conan playing with the toys. Later, her suspicions are raised due to Conan acting suspiciously mature for a child and then tricked him into saying indirectly that he's Shinichi. At the end of the episode her suspisions are cleared due to Conan being in the agency while Shinichi( Agasa using a voice changer to mimic)calls the agency.<ref>Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]]</ref> In [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!|Episode 96]], she sees Conan without his glasses and notices he looks exactly the same as Shinichi when he was a child. She even tries to confront him about it, but [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] then arrives and claims that Conan is her distant nephew.<ref>Episode 96: [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!]]</ref> Later on, in [[The Desperate Revival]], it is revealed that Ran believes Conan is Shinichi and is waiting for him to tell her.<ref>Episodes 188-193: [[The Desperate Revival]]</ref> She is only dissuaded from this when Shinichi appears at the same time that Conan does. It turns out that Haibara has given Conan a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]] that will return him to Kudo Shinichi and disguised herself as Conan. After a text message she sends to Shinichi is received on Conan's cell phone her suspicions are aroused again<ref>Manga Chapter 479: The Suspicious Message</ref>, but Conan uses Agasa's cell phone to call her as Shinichi and messages her his "new" cell phone number.<ref>Episode 400: [[Ran's Suspicions]] Manga Chapter 483: Unlocking It!</ref> Since then, Ran has apparently been too happy with having Shinichi's "secret number" to become suspicious of Conan.<ref> Manga Chapter 484: From Him to Her</ref>
An upcoming suspicion arc has been foreshadowed with Heiji Hattori's omamori and her wondering how Shinichi's fingerprints got on it when only Conan has touched it, coupled with Conan's recent lack of subtlety.
And in the [[Volume 66#Kazuha's Charm Case|Kazuha's Charm Case]], Ran told Conan if he has the resolution of the case yet, hinting that she continue suspecting about Shinichi being Conan.

==== Wataru Takagi ====
[[File:Wataru Takagi.jpg|100px|right]]
When it seemed they would both die while disarming a bomb, [[Wataru Takagi|Detective Takagi]] agreed to follow Conan's instructions in exchange for telling him who he really is. Conan agreed but said he would tell him in the afterlife.<ref>Manga Chapter 372: The Most in This World...</ref> Takagi had also thought to himself that Conan was not just any normal kid prior to this, but he has not made this observation since nor has he asked Conan to explain his answer. It is worth noting however that Takagi is aware of Conan's [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch]] and will do nearly anything Conan asks him to do, including dressing up as a mailman in order to fool some kidnappers. Also, in a recent case Takagi refers to Kudo as "Shinichi-kun", something that is strange considering that the last contact Shinichi and Takagi had (Shiragami case) he still called him "Kudo-kun", and also in the [[Volume 63#Highway Murder Case|Shiragami Case]] he had the same attitude with Shinichi than with Conan in other cases, possibly because he continues suspecting about his identity. However, in the [[Super_Digest_Books#SDB80.2B_questions_translations|Q&A of the Super Digest Book 80+]], Gosho Aoyama stated that Takagi doesn't suspect Conan "even the tiniest bit".

====Keith Dan Stinger====
[[File:Keith.jpg|100px|right]]
He became amazed by Conan's intelligence by discovering the fake sommelier that tried to poison Princess Mira and how he managed to alert the cockpit of his presence when he jumped onto the plane upon take off. Upon witnessing his actions, Keith reveals his suspicions that although Conan may look like a child, he has the mind of an adult and entrusts him along with Jigen to find evidence that proves Duke Gerard murdered Queen Sakura and Prince Gill.

=== Non confirmed suspicious===

==== Rei Furuya/Tooru Amuro/Bourbon ====
[[File:Rei Furuya.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Rei Furuya|Rei]] suspects Conan is creating the Sleeping Kogoro, but it is unclear if he has any suspicions about Conan's identity or relationship to Shinichi. Also, in the final chapter of the [[Volume 85#Scarlet Showdown|Scarlet Showdown]], Conan said to him "liar" and then [[Rei Furuya|Furuya]] responded him "look who's talking", possibly because he also noted Conan is not just a very smart boy. However, Rei knows that there is a relationship between Conan and [[Yusaku Kudo]] since he is letting [[Subaru]] staying at the Kudo house.{{citation needed}} {{clear}}

==== Jodie Starling ====
[[File:Jodie Starling.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] overheard [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] call Shinichi by the first half of his real name: "Shin-Conan". She noted the slip but didn't seem to understand what it meant.<ref>Sometime very soon after Scarlet Showdown</ref>
{{clear}}
==== Shukichi Haneda ====
[[File:Shukichi Haneda.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Shukichi]] noticed that Conan is a skilled detective during their first meeting. During a case, he even writes to his sister [[Masumi]] that there is no problem if Conan is making the deduction. By the end of the case, he sent her an e-mail asking if she has already met the wizard. [[Shinichi]] met Shukichi 10 years ago in the beach, so there is a possibility that Shukichi knows that Conan is Shinichi due to his excellent memory.
{{clear}}
=== People who questioned Conan's identity ===

==== Kurumi Shodo ====
[[File:Kurumi Shodo.jpg|100px|right]]
Shodo is blind, and based on Conan's speech manner, she concluded that he was in high school age and just had a high voice. She said to Conan that it was as if Sherlock Holmes was imitating a child.

[[File:Op40-8.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Conan and Shinichi from [[WE GO]]]]
Over the course of the series, 22 characters have come to know that [[Conan Edogawa]] is actually [[Shinichi Kudo]] (11 of which are not manga [[canon]]). In addition, [[Ran Mouri]] has noticed similarities between the two and [[Kogoro Mouri]], [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Rei Furuya]] have shown signs of doubting that Conan is just ''"very smart"''. This should not be confused with the [[people who know Conan is really Sleeping Kogoro|people who know Conan is the puppeteer behind Sleeping Kogoro]].

In their respective categories, characters are listed by the order they came to discover (or become suspicious of) Conan's identity.

However, instead of revealing it to the Organization, he decides to use that to gain more power with the boss, because of an old grudge he has with [[Gin]] for killing [[Pisco]], his mentor, without orders to do so. He is shot to death by [[Chianti]] before he can do anything.

[[File:Tokujiro Nagai.jpg|100px|right]]
'''{{nihongo|Tokujiro Nagai|長井徳次郎|Nagai Tokujirō}}''', age 72, is the Nagai Toys shopkeeper in [[The Mysterious Boy]]. His wife was hospitalized due to a serious sickness, but he's earnings were too modest to afford her treatments, so he was forced to borrow money from Kuromaru Finance. Tsutomu Oshiro, a 38 years old employee, whenever he came by to check on the investment, callously bullied Nagai, which the old man endured for his wife's sake. But then Oshiro decided to demand repayment from the wife, heedless of her condition. When she heard that her husband had plunged himself into debt, she suffered a breakdown which contributed to her death soon afterwards. Then, Nagai murders Oshiro for revenge.

Upon that revelation, Nagai remembers Conan - or rather, Shinichi - from an incident ten years ago, when one of a group of children visiting his toy shop had dropped a toy engine to the floor, breaking it. Shinichi found out which child had done it, but Nagai kindly refused to punish the offender for this accident. The startlement from this realization convinces Nagai to turn himself over to the police, and Inspector Megure orders a thorough investigation of Kuromaru's dubious business practices. When Megure asks Nagai why he has decided to surrender himself, Nagai replies that a "mysterious boy who has [[APTX-4869|remained unchanged]] for ten years" has influenced him into doing so, as a sort of messenger from his late wife.

== Suspicious ==
Although several characters have caught on to the fact that Conan is much smarter than most children, only a few characters have questioned exactly why he is so smart. Although the [[FBI]] are aware of Conan's intelligence and even talk to him like he is an adult ([[Shuichi Akai]]), they do not seem to be too concerned about how he got so smart, especially since they have not encountered Conan's true self, [[Shinichi Kudo]]. Some of the police like [[Miwako Sato]] and [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] take Conan's deductions seriously, but like the FBI, they seem to believe he is just an exceptionally bright child.

=== Confirmed suspicious ===
==== Kogoro Mouri ====
[[File:Kogoro Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] was the first character to become suspicious of Conan's identity, albeit briefly. In [[Volume 2]], he felt like he had seen Conan from somewhere before, likely the time when Ran was in elementary school.<ref>[[Volume 2|File 10, Page 16]]</ref> Later, he noticed that Conan was once again pointing out things he overlooked, such as that all of the photos proving the suspects alibi had clocks in them. However, he instantly loses his suspicions when Conan spills another envelope of photos for the case, deciding that "a brat is a brat" after all.<ref>Manga Chapter 11: A Perfect Alibi</ref>

In the [[TV Station Murder Case]], Kogoro became suspicious about Conan for the second time. He was invited to attend a television live show as a guest star. However, a murder occurred at the studio. After finding out all the evidences, Conan lured Kogoro to a separate room, lying that [[Yoko Okino]] was in there. Just as usual, he decided to tranquilize Kogoro and used the man to solve the case. Unfortunately, when Kogoro woke up, he began to question Conan about Yoko's whereabouts. He was also suspicious about the fact that whenever Conan tried to pull him outside, he always fell asleep right after. Kogoro angrily grabbed the boy's suit jacket and wanted to "clear things up". Much to Conan's luck, Yoko Okino appeared for real and Kogoro completely lost his suspicions.

==== Ran Mouri ====
[[File:Ran Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Ran_being_suspicious.jpg|thumb|left|Ran suspecting Conan is Shinichi.]]
[[Ran Mouri|Ran]] has on more than one occasion noticed the striking similarities between Shinichi and Conan, being his childhood friend and one of the people that know Shinichi the best.<ref>Episode 96.</ref> She first becomes suspicious during the Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]] when Conan deduces that the client is a surgeon in a manner similar to Shinichi's deductions, but her suspicions are diluted due to Conan playing with the toys. Later, her suspicions are raised due to Conan acting suspiciously mature for a child and then tricked him into saying indirectly that he's Shinichi. At the end of the episode her suspisions are cleared due to Conan being in the agency while Shinichi( Agasa using a voice changer to mimic)calls the agency.<ref>Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]]</ref> In [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!|Episode 96]], she sees Conan without his glasses and notices he looks exactly the same as Shinichi when he was a child. She even tries to confront him about it, but [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] then arrives and claims that Conan is her distant nephew.<ref>Episode 96: [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!]]</ref> Later on, in [[The Desperate Revival]], it is revealed that Ran believes Conan is Shinichi and is waiting for him to tell her.<ref>Episodes 188-193: [[The Desperate Revival]]</ref> She is only dissuaded from this when Shinichi appears at the same time that Conan does. It turns out that Haibara has given Conan a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]] that will return him to Kudo Shinichi and disguised herself as Conan. After a text message she sends to Shinichi is received on Conan's cell phone her suspicions are aroused again<ref>Manga Chapter 479: The Suspicious Message</ref>, but Conan uses Agasa's cell phone to call her as Shinichi and messages her his "new" cell phone number.<ref>Episode 400: [[Ran's Suspicions]] Manga Chapter 483: Unlocking It!</ref> Since then, Ran has apparently been too happy with having Shinichi's "secret number" to become suspicious of Conan.<ref> Manga Chapter 484: From Him to Her</ref>
An upcoming suspicion arc has been foreshadowed with Heiji Hattori's omamori and her wondering how Shinichi's fingerprints got on it when only Conan has touched it, coupled with Conan's recent lack of subtlety.
And in the [[Volume 66#Kazuha's Charm Case|Kazuha's Charm Case]], Ran told Conan if he has the resolution of the case yet, hinting that she continue suspecting about Shinichi being Conan.

==== Wataru Takagi ====
[[File:Wataru Takagi.jpg|100px|right]]
When it seemed they would both die while disarming a bomb, [[Wataru Takagi|Detective Takagi]] agreed to follow Conan's instructions in exchange for telling him who he really is. Conan agreed but said he would tell him in the afterlife.<ref>Manga Chapter 372: The Most in This World...</ref> Takagi had also thought to himself that Conan was not just any normal kid prior to this, but he has not made this observation since nor has he asked Conan to explain his answer. It is worth noting however that Takagi is aware of Conan's [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch]] and will do nearly anything Conan asks him to do, including dressing up as a mailman in order to fool some kidnappers. Also, in a recent case Takagi refers to Kudo as "Shinichi-kun", something that is strange considering that the last contact Shinichi and Takagi had (Shiragami case) he still called him "Kudo-kun", and also in the [[Volume 63#Highway Murder Case|Shiragami Case]] he had the same attitude with Shinichi than with Conan in other cases, possibly because he continues suspecting about his identity. However, in the [[Super_Digest_Books#SDB80.2B_questions_translations|Q&A of the Super Digest Book 80+]], Gosho Aoyama stated that Takagi doesn't suspect Conan "even the tiniest bit".

====Keith Dan Stinger====
[[File:Keith.jpg|100px|right]]
He became amazed by Conan's intelligence by discovering the fake sommelier that tried to poison Princess Mira and how he managed to alert the cockpit of his presence when he jumped onto the plane upon take off. Upon witnessing his actions, Keith reveals his suspicions that although Conan may look like a child, he has the mind of an adult and entrusts him along with Jigen to find evidence that proves Duke Gerard murdered Queen Sakura and Prince Gill.

=== Non confirmed suspicious===

==== Rei Furuya/Tooru Amuro/Bourbon ====
[[File:Rei Furuya.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Rei Furuya|Rei]] suspects Conan is creating the Sleeping Kogoro, but it is unclear if he has any suspicions about Conan's identity or relationship to Shinichi. Also, in the final chapter of the [[Volume 85#Scarlet Showdown|Scarlet Showdown]], Conan said to him "liar" and then [[Rei Furuya|Furuya]] responded him "look who's talking", possibly because he also noted Conan is not just a very smart boy. However, Rei knows that there is a relationship between Conan and [[Yusaku Kudo]] since he is letting [[Subaru]] staying at the Kudo house.{{citation needed}} {{clear}}

==== Jodie Starling ====
[[File:Jodie Starling.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] overheard [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] call Shinichi by the first half of his real name: "Shin-Conan". She noted the slip but didn't seem to understand what it meant.<ref>Sometime very soon after Scarlet Showdown</ref>
{{clear}}
==== Shukichi Haneda ====
[[File:Shukichi Haneda.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Shukichi]] noticed that Conan is a skilled detective during their first meeting. During a case, he even writes to his sister [[Masumi]] that there is no problem if Conan is making the deduction. By the end of the case, he sent her an e-mail asking if she has already met the wizard. [[Shinichi]] met Shukichi 10 years ago in the beach, so there is a possibility that Shukichi knows that Conan is Shinichi due to his excellent memory.
{{clear}}
=== People who questioned Conan's identity ===

==== Kurumi Shodo ====
[[File:Kurumi Shodo.jpg|100px|right]]
Shodo is blind, and based on Conan's speech manner, she concluded that he was in high school age and just had a high voice. She said to Conan that it was as if Sherlock Holmes was imitating a child.

[[File:Op40-8.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Conan and Shinichi from [[WE GO]]]]
Over the course of the series, 22 characters have come to know that [[Conan Edogawa]] is actually [[Shinichi Kudo]] (11 of which are not manga [[canon]]). In addition, [[Ran Mouri]] has noticed similarities between the two and [[Kogoro Mouri]], [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Rei Furuya]] have shown signs of doubting that Conan is just ''"very smart"''. This should not be confused with the [[people who know Conan is really Sleeping Kogoro|people who know Conan is the puppeteer behind Sleeping Kogoro]].

In their respective categories, characters are listed by the order they came to discover (or become suspicious of) Conan's identity.

== Canon ==
So far eleven people have learned Conan's true identity is Shinichi in the manga [[canon]]. Four were told the truth, six discovered it for themselves. How the remaining one became aware of this is unconfirmed.

=== Hiroshi Agasa ===
[[File:Hiroshi Agasa.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] found out that in Volume 1, at the second chapter of the series.

=== Vermouth ===
[[File:Vermouth.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Vermouth]] realized similarities between Shinichi (when he was young) and Conan. She also chose not to betray Shinichi to the Black Organization, most likely because he and Ran saved her when she was disguised as a serial killer in New York.
{{clear}}
=== Eisuke Hondou ===
[[File:Eisuke Hondou.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Eisuke Hondou]] revealed his awareness of Conan's true idenitiy in Volume 60.<ref>''Detective Conan'', File 621.</ref> Originally when he began investigating the whereabouts of his sister, he was still unaware that Rena Mizunashi was his sister or the fact she is an agent of the CIA. When she disappeared, he began investigating and believed that Kogoro was responsible behind her disappearance since he was the last person to see her. However when he began further investigating Kogoro, it lead to him discovering Conan Edogawa is really Shinichi Kudo. He realised that Kogoro's skills as a detective were different before he began "Sleeping Kogoro" and noticed that Conanwas always by his side whenever he was solving a case as well as the fact that Shinichi had taken a leave of absence from school.

Upon these discoveries, Eisuke discovered Conan Edogawa was really Shinichi Kudo, but still didn't know how he became small. This reveals that even before they first met, Eisuke knew all along who Conan really was. When he first met Conan, Eisuke purposely fell into him, knocking off his glasses. Then acting as if he couldn't see, he called Conan, Detective Mouri. Later after finding his sister and learning the circumstances, Eisuke revealed his desire to go to America to join the CIA to follow in the footsteps of his father and sister. Eisuke also confesses to Conan that he is in love with Ran and desires to bring her with him to America, but wants to ask for Shinichi's permission after learning that Shinichi and Ran are in love. Due to this, Conan reveals himself as Shinichi Kudo, refusing Eisuke's request and Eisuke then revealed this truly confirms his suspicions and confesses to knowing Conan was Shinichi Kudo all along.

[[Subaru Okiya]] (officially revealed to be [[Shuichi Akai]] in File 898) obtained proof of Conan's identity when [[Yusaku_Kudo's_Cold_Case|he caught Conan pretending to be Shinichi over the phone]].<ref>Chapter 813</ref> Based on some of the questions he asked Ran, he may have deduced Conan was Shinichi very soon after he moved into the Kudo house,<ref>Paper Airplane Case</ref> but had lacked absolute proof up until the phone incident. Since finding out the truth, he teases Conan and has on occasion confronted him regarding his identity, but doesn't further press the issue until Conan is ready to reveal the truth himself. However, while Conan still refuses to speak of his identity, it's revealed he has already realised that Shuichi Akai knows he is Shinichi Kudo.<ref>Just Like a 17 Years Old Crime Scene</ref>
{{clear}}

=== Masumi Sera ===
[[File:Masumi Sera.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Masumi Sera|Sera]] seems to have known Conan was Shinichi before they first met recently. Masumi remembers Shinichi from some meeting they had in the past and has been since trying to encourage Conan to remember where he met her. In "Conan vs. Heiji, Deduction Battle Between the Detectives of the East and West" episode, it's confirmed that Sera knows when she thinks "Now we already know who's the winner" while looking towards Conan that thinking about the case, referring him as "Shinichi".
{{clear}}

=== Mary Sera ===
[[File:Mary.jpg|100px|right]]
In Volume 90 (Soul Detective Murder Case), [[Mary]] told Masumi that Conan is no longer [[Volume 92#A Chance Meeting at the Beach|the same person that she and Masumi met 10 years ago]]. This implies that she is aware that Conan is Shinichi.

=== Kaitou Kid/Kaito Kuroba ===
[[File:Kaitou Kid.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Kaito Kuroba.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kaitou Kid]] (also known as ''Phantom Thief Kid'') becomes aware of Conan's true identity in [[The Last Wizard of the Century]]. While disguised as [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], Kid had bugged the phones on the Suzuki Financial Group's ship and therefore heard all of the conversation between Conan and Agasa on the phone. Not realizing they were being listened to, Agasa continued to refer to Conan as "Shinichi" on the phone as he normally does. It is assumed that afterwards Kid put two and two together. Kid's knowledge of Conan being Shinichi is confirmed in [[The Lost Ship in the Sky]]. Kid's knowledge of Conan's identity has not been stated in the manga and has not been confirmed by [[Gosho Aoyama]] to be canon, although in the manga Kid is definitely aware that Conan is no mere child.

'''{{nihongo|Tokujiro Nagai|長井徳次郎|Nagai Tokujirō}}''', age 72, is the Nagai Toys shopkeeper in [[The Mysterious Boy]]. His wife was hospitalized due to a serious sickness, but he's earnings were too modest to afford her treatments, so he was forced to borrow money from Kuromaru Finance. Tsutomu Oshiro, a 38 years old employee, whenever he came by to check on the investment, callously bullied Nagai, which the old man endured for his wife's sake. But then Oshiro decided to demand repayment from the wife, heedless of her condition. When she heard that her husband had plunged himself into debt, she suffered a breakdown which contributed to her death soon afterwards. Then, Nagai murders Oshiro for revenge.

Upon that revelation, Nagai remembers Conan - or rather, Shinichi - from an incident ten years ago, when one of a group of children visiting his toy shop had dropped a toy engine to the floor, breaking it. Shinichi found out which child had done it, but Nagai kindly refused to punish the offender for this accident. The startlement from this realization convinces Nagai to turn himself over to the police, and Inspector Megure orders a thorough investigation of Kuromaru's dubious business practices. When Megure asks Nagai why he has decided to surrender himself, Nagai replies that a "mysterious boy who has [[APTX-4869|remained unchanged]] for ten years" has influenced him into doing so, as a sort of messenger from his late wife.

Also, in the final chapter of the [[Volume 85#Scarlet Showdown|Scarlet Showdown]], Conan said to him "liar" and then [[Rei Furuya|Furuya]] responded him "look who's talking", possibly because he also noted Conan is not just a very smart boy. However, Rei knows that there is a relationship between Conan and [[Yusaku Kudo]] since he is letting [[Subaru]] staying at the Kudo house.{{citation needed}} {{clear}}

[[Shukichi]] noticed that Conan is a skilled detective during their first meeting. During a case, he even writes to his sister [[Masumi]] that there is no problem if Conan is making the deduction. By the end of the case, he sent her an e-mail asking if she has already met the wizard. [[Shinichi]] met Shukichi 10 years ago in the beach, so there is a possibility that Shukichi knows that Conan is Shinichi due to his excellent memory.

Sbrady538: /* Eisuke Hondou */

[[File:Op40-8.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Conan and Shinichi from [[WE GO]]]]
Over the course of the series, 22 characters have come to know that [[Conan Edogawa]] is actually [[Shinichi Kudo]] (11 of which are not manga [[canon]]). In addition, [[Ran Mouri]] has noticed similarities between the two and [[Kogoro Mouri]], [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Rei Furuya]] have shown signs of doubting that Conan is just ''"very smart"''. This should not be confused with the [[people who know Conan is really Sleeping Kogoro|people who know Conan is the puppeteer behind Sleeping Kogoro]].

In their respective categories, characters are listed by the order they came to discover (or become suspicious of) Conan's identity.

== Canon ==
So far eleven people have learned Conan's true identity is Shinichi in the manga [[canon]]. Four were told the truth, six discovered it for themselves. How the remaining one became aware of this is unconfirmed.

=== Hiroshi Agasa ===
[[File:Hiroshi Agasa.jpg|100px|right]]

=== Vermouth ===
[[File:Vermouth.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Vermouth]] realized similarities between Shinichi (when he was young) and Conan. She also chose not to betray Shinichi to the Black Organization, most likely because he and Ran saved her when she was disguised as a serial killer in New York.
{{clear}}
=== Eisuke Hondou ===
[[File:Eisuke Hondou.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Eisuke Hondou]] revealed his awareness of Conan's true idenitiy in Volume 60.<ref>''Detective Conan'', File 621.</ref> Originally when he began investigating the whereabouts of his sister, he was still unaware that Rena Mizunashi was his sister of the fact she is an agent of the CIA. When she disappeared, he began investigating and believed that Kogoro was responsible behind her disappearance since he was the last person to see her. However when he began further investigating Kogoro, it lead to him discovering Conan Edogawa is really Shinichi Kudo. Kogoro's skills as a detective were different when he began Sleeping Kogoro and noted that around this time Shinichi had taken a leave of absence from school and noticed Conan had appeared around the exact same time. Upon these discoveries, Eisuke discovered Conan Edogawa was really Shinichi Kudo, revealing he has known of his true identity even before they first met. When he first met Conan, Eisuke purposely fell into him, knocking off his glasses. Then acting as if he couldn't see, he called Conan, Detective Mouri. Eventually when Eisuke revealed his desire to go to America to join the CIA to follow in the footsteps of his father and sister, he expressed to Conan that he also wants to bring Ran and wants to ask for Shinichi's permission upon learning of the true nature of the relationship between Ran and Shinichi. Upon learning this, Conan revealed himself as Shinichi Kudo and refused Eisuke's request and in the process, Eisuke revealed this truly confirms his suspicions, revealing he knew all along of who Conan really was.

=== Subaru Okiya/Shuichi Akai===

|-
| style="vertical-align: top"|[[File:Subaru Okiya.jpg|100px|right]]
| style="vertical-align: top"|[[File:Shuichi Akai.jpg|100px|right]]

[[Subaru Okiya]] (officially revealed to be [[Shuichi Akai]] in File 898) obtained proof of Conan's identity when [[Yusaku_Kudo's_Cold_Case|he caught Conan pretending to be Shinichi over the phone]].<ref>Chapter 813</ref> Based on some of the questions he asked Ran, he may have deduced Conan was Shinichi very soon after he moved into the Kudo house,<ref>Paper Airplane Case</ref> but had lacked absolute proof up until the phone incident. Since finding out the truth, he teases Conan and has on occasion confronted him regarding his identity, but doesn't further press the issue until Conan is ready to reveal the truth himself. However, while Conan still refuses to speak of his identity, it's revealed he has already realised that Shuichi Akai knows he is Shinichi Kudo.<ref>Just Like a 17 Years Old Crime Scene</ref>
{{clear}}

=== Masumi Sera ===
[[File:Masumi Sera.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Masumi Sera|Sera]] seems to have known Conan was Shinichi before they first met recently. Masumi remembers Shinichi from some meeting they had in the past and has been since trying to encourage Conan to remember where he met her. In "Conan vs. Heiji, Deduction Battle Between the Detectives of the East and West" episode, it's confirmed that Sera knows when she thinks "Now we already know who's the winner" while looking towards Conan that thinking about the case, referring him as "Shinichi".
{{clear}}

=== Mary Sera ===
[[File:Mary.jpg|100px|right]]
In Volume 90 (Soul Detective Murder Case), [[Mary]] told Masumi that Conan is no longer [[Volume 92#A Chance Meeting at the Beach|the same person that she and Masumi met 10 years ago]]. This implies that she is aware that Conan is Shinichi.
{{clear}}

== Non-Canon ==

=== Kaitou Kid/Kaito Kuroba ===
[[File:Kaitou Kid.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Kaito Kuroba.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kaitou Kid]] (also known as ''Phantom Thief Kid'') becomes aware of Conan's true identity in [[The Last Wizard of the Century]]. While disguised as [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], Kid had bugged the phones on the Suzuki Financial Group's ship and therefore heard all of the conversation between Conan and Agasa on the phone. Not realizing they were being listened to, Agasa continued to refer to Conan as "Shinichi" on the phone as he normally does. It is assumed that afterwards Kid put two and two together. Kid's knowledge of Conan being Shinichi is confirmed in [[The Lost Ship in the Sky]]. Kid's knowledge of Conan's identity has not been stated in the manga and has not been confirmed by [[Gosho Aoyama]] to be canon, although in the manga Kid is definitely aware that Conan is no mere child.

=== Irish (Deceased) ===
[[File:Irish.jpg|100px|right]]
In the 13th movie, ''[[The Raven Chaser]]'', Black Organization member [[Irish]] discovers Conan's secret identity. However, instead of revealing it to the Organization, he decides to use that to gain more power with the boss, because of an old grudge he has with [[Gin]] for killing [[Pisco]], his mentor, without orders to do so. He is shot to death by [[Chianti]] before he can do anything.

[[File:Tokujiro Nagai.jpg|100px|right]]
'''{{nihongo|Tokujiro Nagai|長井徳次郎|Nagai Tokujirō}}''', age 72, is the Nagai Toys shopkeeper in [[The Mysterious Boy]]. His wife was hospitalized due to a serious sickness, but he's earnings were too modest to afford her treatments, so he was forced to borrow money from Kuromaru Finance. Tsutomu Oshiro, a 38 years old employee, whenever he came by to check on the investment, callously bullied Nagai, which the old man endured for his wife's sake. But then Oshiro decided to demand repayment from the wife, heedless of her condition. When she heard that her husband had plunged himself into debt, she suffered a breakdown which contributed to her death soon afterwards. Then, Nagai murders Oshiro for revenge.

Upon that revelation, Nagai remembers Conan - or rather, Shinichi - from an incident ten years ago, when one of a group of children visiting his toy shop had dropped a toy engine to the floor, breaking it. Shinichi found out which child had done it, but Nagai kindly refused to punish the offender for this accident. The startlement from this realization convinces Nagai to turn himself over to the police, and Inspector Megure orders a thorough investigation of Kuromaru's dubious business practices. When Megure asks Nagai why he has decided to surrender himself, Nagai replies that a "mysterious boy who has [[APTX-4869|remained unchanged]] for ten years" has influenced him into doing so, as a sort of messenger from his late wife.

== Suspicious ==
Although several characters have caught on to the fact that Conan is much smarter than most children, only a few characters have questioned exactly why he is so smart. Although the [[FBI]] are aware of Conan's intelligence and even talk to him like he is an adult ([[Shuichi Akai]]), they do not seem to be too concerned about how he got so smart, especially since they have not encountered Conan's true self, [[Shinichi Kudo]]. Some of the police like [[Miwako Sato]] and [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] take Conan's deductions seriously, but like the FBI, they seem to believe he is just an exceptionally bright child.

=== Confirmed suspicious ===
==== Kogoro Mouri ====
[[File:Kogoro Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] was the first character to become suspicious of Conan's identity, albeit briefly. In [[Volume 2]], he felt like he had seen Conan from somewhere before, likely the time when Ran was in elementary school.<ref>[[Volume 2|File 10, Page 16]]</ref> Later, he noticed that Conan was once again pointing out things he overlooked, such as that all of the photos proving the suspects alibi had clocks in them. However, he instantly loses his suspicions when Conan spills another envelope of photos for the case, deciding that "a brat is a brat" after all.<ref>Manga Chapter 11: A Perfect Alibi</ref>

In the [[TV Station Murder Case]], Kogoro became suspicious about Conan for the second time. He was invited to attend a television live show as a guest star. However, a murder occurred at the studio. After finding out all the evidences, Conan lured Kogoro to a separate room, lying that [[Yoko Okino]] was in there. Just as usual, he decided to tranquilize Kogoro and used the man to solve the case. Unfortunately, when Kogoro woke up, he began to question Conan about Yoko's whereabouts. He was also suspicious about the fact that whenever Conan tried to pull him outside, he always fell asleep right after. Kogoro angrily grabbed the boy's suit jacket and wanted to "clear things up". Much to Conan's luck, Yoko Okino appeared for real and Kogoro completely lost his suspicions.

==== Ran Mouri ====
[[File:Ran Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Ran_being_suspicious.jpg|thumb|left|Ran suspecting Conan is Shinichi.]]
[[Ran Mouri|Ran]] has on more than one occasion noticed the striking similarities between Shinichi and Conan, being his childhood friend and one of the people that know Shinichi the best.<ref>Episode 96.</ref> She first becomes suspicious during the Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]] when Conan deduces that the client is a surgeon in a manner similar to Shinichi's deductions, but her suspicions are diluted due to Conan playing with the toys. Later, her suspicions are raised due to Conan acting suspiciously mature for a child and then tricked him into saying indirectly that he's Shinichi. At the end of the episode her suspisions are cleared due to Conan being in the agency while Shinichi( Agasa using a voice changer to mimic)calls the agency.<ref>Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]]</ref> In [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!|Episode 96]], she sees Conan without his glasses and notices he looks exactly the same as Shinichi when he was a child. She even tries to confront him about it, but [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] then arrives and claims that Conan is her distant nephew.<ref>Episode 96: [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!]]</ref> Later on, in [[The Desperate Revival]], it is revealed that Ran believes Conan is Shinichi and is waiting for him to tell her.<ref>Episodes 188-193: [[The Desperate Revival]]</ref> She is only dissuaded from this when Shinichi appears at the same time that Conan does. It turns out that Haibara has given Conan a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]] that will return him to Kudo Shinichi and disguised herself as Conan. After a text message she sends to Shinichi is received on Conan's cell phone her suspicions are aroused again<ref>Manga Chapter 479: The Suspicious Message</ref>, but Conan uses Agasa's cell phone to call her as Shinichi and messages her his "new" cell phone number.<ref>Episode 400: [[Ran's Suspicions]] Manga Chapter 483: Unlocking It!</ref> Since then, Ran has apparently been too happy with having Shinichi's "secret number" to become suspicious of Conan.<ref> Manga Chapter 484: From Him to Her</ref>
An upcoming suspicion arc has been foreshadowed with Heiji Hattori's omamori and her wondering how Shinichi's fingerprints got on it when only Conan has touched it, coupled with Conan's recent lack of subtlety.
And in the [[Volume 66#Kazuha's Charm Case|Kazuha's Charm Case]], Ran told Conan if he has the resolution of the case yet, hinting that she continue suspecting about Shinichi being Conan.

==== Wataru Takagi ====
[[File:Wataru Takagi.jpg|100px|right]]
When it seemed they would both die while disarming a bomb, [[Wataru Takagi|Detective Takagi]] agreed to follow Conan's instructions in exchange for telling him who he really is. Conan agreed but said he would tell him in the afterlife.<ref>Manga Chapter 372: The Most in This World...</ref> Takagi had also thought to himself that Conan was not just any normal kid prior to this, but he has not made this observation since nor has he asked Conan to explain his answer. It is worth noting however that Takagi is aware of Conan's [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch]] and will do nearly anything Conan asks him to do, including dressing up as a mailman in order to fool some kidnappers. Also, in a recent case Takagi refers to Kudo as "Shinichi-kun", something that is strange considering that the last contact Shinichi and Takagi had (Shiragami case) he still called him "Kudo-kun", and also in the [[Volume 63#Highway Murder Case|Shiragami Case]] he had the same attitude with Shinichi than with Conan in other cases, possibly because he continues suspecting about his identity. However, in the [[Super_Digest_Books#SDB80.2B_questions_translations|Q&A of the Super Digest Book 80+]], Gosho Aoyama stated that Takagi doesn't suspect Conan "even the tiniest bit".

====Keith Dan Stinger====
[[File:Keith.jpg|100px|right]]
He became amazed by Conan's intelligence by discovering the fake sommelier that tried to poison Princess Mira and how he managed to alert the cockpit of his presence when he jumped onto the plane upon take off. Upon witnessing his actions, Keith reveals his suspicions that although Conan may look like a child, he has the mind of an adult and entrusts him along with Jigen to find evidence that proves Duke Gerard murdered Queen Sakura and Prince Gill.

[[Rei Furuya|Rei]] suspects Conan is creating the Sleeping Kogoro, but it is unclear if he has any suspicions about Conan's identity or relationship to Shinichi. Also, in the final chapter of the [[Volume 85#Scarlet Showdown|Scarlet Showdown]], Conan said to him "liar" and then [[Rei Furuya|Furuya]] responded him "look who's talking", possibly because he also noted Conan is not just a very smart boy.

[[Masumi Sera|Sera]] seems to have known Conan was Shinichi before they first met recently. Masumi remembers Shinichi from some meeting they had in the past and has been since trying to encourage Conan to remember where he met her.

[[Kaitou Kid]] (also known as ''Phantom Thief Kid'') becomes aware of Conan's true identity in [[The Last Wizard of the Century]]. While disguised as [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], Kid had bugged the phones on the Suzuki Financial Group's ship and therefore heard all of the conversation between Conan and Agasa on the phone. Not realizing they were being listened to, Agasa continued to refer to Conan as "Shinichi" on the phone as he normally does. It is assumed that afterwards Kid put two and two together. Kid's knowledge of Conan being Shinichi is confirmed in [[The Lost Ship in the Sky]]. Kid's knowledge of Conan's identity has not been stated in the manga and has not been confirmed by [[Gosho Aoyama]] to be canon, although in the manga Kid is definitely aware that Conan is no mere child.

'''{{nihongo|Tokujiro Nagai|長井徳次郎|Nagai Tokujirō}}''', age 72, is the Nagai Toys shopkeeper in [[The Mysterious Boy]]. His wife was hospitalized due to a serious sickness, but he's earnings were too modest to afford her treatments, so he was forced to borrow money from Kuromaru Finance. Tsutomu Oshiro, a 38 years old employee, whenever he came by to check on the investment, callously bullied Nagai, which the old man endured for his wife's sake. But then Oshiro decided to demand repayment from the wife, heedless of her condition. When she heard that her husband had plunged himself into debt, she suffered a breakdown which contributed to her death soon afterwards. Then, Nagai murders Oshiro for revenge.

Upon that revelation, Nagai remembers Conan - or rather, Shinichi - from an incident ten years ago, when one of a group of children visiting his toy shop had dropped a toy engine to the floor, breaking it. Shinichi found out which child had done it, but Nagai kindly refused to punish the offender for this accident. The startlement from this realization convinces Nagai to turn himself over to the police, and Inspector Megure orders a thorough investigation of Kuromaru's dubious business practices. When Megure asks Nagai why he has decided to surrender himself, Nagai replies that a "mysterious boy who has [[APTX-4869|remained unchanged]] for ten years" has influenced him into doing so, as a sort of messenger from his late wife.

== Suspicious ==
Although several characters have caught on to the fact that Conan is much smarter than most children, only a few characters have questioned exactly why he is so smart. Although the [[FBI]] are aware of Conan's intelligence and even talk to him like he is an adult ([[Shuichi Akai]]), they do not seem to be too concerned about how he got so smart, especially since they have not encountered Conan's true self, [[Shinichi Kudo]]. Some of the police like [[Miwako Sato]] and [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] take Conan's deductions seriously, but like the FBI, they seem to believe he is just an exceptionally bright child.

=== Confirmed suspicious ===
==== Kogoro Mouri ====
[[File:Kogoro Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] was the first character to become suspicious of Conan's identity, albeit briefly. In [[Volume 2]], he felt like he had seen Conan from somewhere before, likely the time when Ran was in elementary school.<ref>[[Volume 2|File 10, Page 16]]</ref> Later, he noticed that Conan was once again pointing out things he overlooked, such as that all of the photos proving the suspects alibi had clocks in them. However, he instantly loses his suspicions when Conan spills another envelope of photos for the case, deciding that "a brat is a brat" after all.<ref>Manga Chapter 11: A Perfect Alibi</ref>

In the [[TV Station Murder Case]], Kogoro became suspicious about Conan for the second time. He was invited to attend a television live show as a guest star. However, a murder occurred at the studio. After finding out all the evidences, Conan lured Kogoro to a separate room, lying that [[Yoko Okino]] was in there. Just as usual, he decided to tranquilize Kogoro and used the man to solve the case. Unfortunately, when Kogoro woke up, he began to question Conan about Yoko's whereabouts. He was also suspicious about the fact that whenever Conan tried to pull him outside, he always fell asleep right after. Kogoro angrily grabbed the boy's suit jacket and wanted to "clear things up". Much to Conan's luck, Yoko Okino appeared for real and Kogoro completely lost his suspicions.

==== Ran Mouri ====
[[File:Ran Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Ran_being_suspicious.jpg|thumb|left|Ran suspecting Conan is Shinichi.]]
[[Ran Mouri|Ran]] has on more than one occasion noticed the striking similarities between Shinichi and Conan, being his childhood friend and one of the people that know Shinichi the best.<ref>Episode 96.</ref> She first becomes suspicious during the Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]] when Conan deduces that the client is a surgeon in a manner similar to Shinichi's deductions, but her suspicions are diluted due to Conan playing with the toys. Later, her suspicions are raised due to Conan acting suspiciously mature for a child and then tricked him into saying indirectly that he's Shinichi. At the end of the episode her suspisions are cleared due to Conan being in the agency while Shinichi( Agasa using a voice changer to mimic)calls the agency.<ref>Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]]</ref> In [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!|Episode 96]], she sees Conan without his glasses and notices he looks exactly the same as Shinichi when he was a child. She even tries to confront him about it, but [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] then arrives and claims that Conan is her distant nephew.<ref>Episode 96: [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!]]</ref> Later on, in [[The Desperate Revival]], it is revealed that Ran believes Conan is Shinichi and is waiting for him to tell her.<ref>Episodes 188-193: [[The Desperate Revival]]</ref> She is only dissuaded from this when Shinichi appears at the same time that Conan does. It turns out that Haibara has given Conan a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]] that will return him to Kudo Shinichi and disguised herself as Conan. After a text message she sends to Shinichi is received on Conan's cell phone her suspicions are aroused again<ref>Manga Chapter 479: The Suspicious Message</ref>, but Conan uses Agasa's cell phone to call her as Shinichi and messages her his "new" cell phone number.<ref>Episode 400: [[Ran's Suspicions]] Manga Chapter 483: Unlocking It!</ref> Since then, Ran has apparently been too happy with having Shinichi's "secret number" to become suspicious of Conan.<ref> Manga Chapter 484: From Him to Her</ref>
An upcoming suspicion arc has been foreshadowed with Heiji Hattori's omamori and her wondering how Shinichi's fingerprints got on it when only Conan has touched it, coupled with Conan's recent lack of subtlety.
And in the [[Volume 66#Kazuha's Charm Case|Kazuha's Charm Case]], Ran told Conan if he has the resolution of the case yet, hinting that she continue suspecting about Shinichi being Conan.

==== Wataru Takagi ====
[[File:Wataru Takagi.jpg|100px|right]]
When it seemed they would both die while disarming a bomb, [[Wataru Takagi|Detective Takagi]] agreed to follow Conan's instructions in exchange for telling him who he really is. Conan agreed but said he would tell him in the afterlife.<ref>Manga Chapter 372: The Most in This World...</ref> Takagi had also thought to himself that Conan was not just any normal kid prior to this, but he has not made this observation since nor has he asked Conan to explain his answer. It is worth noting however that Takagi is aware of Conan's [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch]] and will do nearly anything Conan asks him to do, including dressing up as a mailman in order to fool some kidnappers. Also, in a recent case Takagi refers to Kudo as "Shinichi-kun", something that is strange considering that the last contact Shinichi and Takagi had (Shiragami case) he still called him "Kudo-kun", and also in the [[Volume 63#Highway Murder Case|Shiragami Case]] he had the same attitude with Shinichi than with Conan in other cases, possibly because he continues suspecting about his identity. However, in the [[Super_Digest_Books#SDB80.2B_questions_translations|Q&A of the Super Digest Book 80+]], Gosho Aoyama stated that Takagi doesn't suspect Conan "even the tiniest bit".

====Keith Dan Stinger====
[[File:Keith.jpg|100px|right]]
He became amazed by Conan's intelligence by discovering the fake sommelier that tried to poison Princess Mira and how he managed to alert the cockpit of his presence when he jumped onto the plane upon take off. Upon witnessing his actions, Keith reveals his suspicions that although Conan may look like a child, he has the mind of an adult and entrusts him along with Jigen to find evidence that proves Duke Gerard murdered Queen Sakura and Prince Gill.

=== Non confirmed suspicious===

==== Rei Furuya/Tooru Amuro/Bourbon ====
[[File:Rei Furuya.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Rei Furuya|Rei]] suspects Conan is creating the Sleeping Kogoro, but it is unclear if he has any suspicions about Conan's identity or relationship to Shinichi. Also, in the final chapter of the [[Volume 85#Scarlet Showdown|Scarlet Showdown]], Conan said to him "liar" and then [[Rei Furuya|Furuya]] responded him "look who's talking", possibly because he also noted Conan is not just a very smart boy. However, Rei knows that there is a relationship between Conan and [[Yusaku Kudo]] since he is letting [[Subaru]] staying at the Kudo house.{{citation needed}} {{clear}}

==== Jodie Starling ====
[[File:Jodie Starling.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] overheard [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] call Shinichi by the first half of his real name: "Shin-Conan". She noted the slip but didn't seem to understand what it meant.<ref>Sometime very soon after Scarlet Showdown</ref>
{{clear}}
==== Shukichi Haneda ====
[[File:Shukichi Haneda.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Shukichi]] noticed that Conan is a skilled detective during their first meeting. During a case, he even writes to his sister [[Masumi]] that there is no problem if Conan is making the deduction. By the end of the case, he sent her an e-mail asking if she has already met the wizard. [[Shinichi]] met Shukichi 10 years ago in the beach, so there is a possibility that Shukichi knows that Conan is Shinichi due to his excellent memory.
{{clear}}
=== People who questioned Conan's identity ===

==== Kurumi Shodo ====
[[File:Kurumi Shodo.jpg|100px|right]]
Shodo is blind, and based on Conan's speech manner, she concluded that he was in high school age and just had a high voice. She said to Conan that it was as if Sherlock Holmes was imitating a child.

[[File:Op40-8.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Conan and Shinichi from [[WE GO]]]]
Over the course of the series, 22 characters have come to know that [[Conan Edogawa]] is actually [[Shinichi Kudo]] (11 of which are not manga [[canon]]). In addition, [[Ran Mouri]] has noticed similarities between the two and [[Kogoro Mouri]], [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Rei Furuya]] have shown signs of doubting that Conan is just ''"very smart"''. This should not be confused with the [[people who know Conan is really Sleeping Kogoro|people who know Conan is the puppeteer behind Sleeping Kogoro]].

In their respective categories, characters are listed by the order they came to discover (or become suspicious of) Conan's identity.

== Canon ==
So far eleven people have learned Conan's true identity is Shinichi in the manga [[canon]]. Four were told the truth, six discovered it for themselves. How the remaining one became aware of this is unconfirmed.

=== Vermouth ===
[[File:Vermouth.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Vermouth]] realized similarities between Shinichi (when he was young) and Conan. She also chose not to betray Shinichi to the Black Organization, most likely because he and Ran saved her when she was disguised as a serial killer in New York.

=== Eisuke Hondou ===
[[File:Eisuke Hondou.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Eisuke Hondou]] revealed his awareness of Conan's true idenitiy in Volume 60.<ref>''Detective Conan'', File 621.</ref> Originally when he began investigating the whereabouts of his sister, he was still unaware that Rena Mizunashi was his sister of the fact she is a CIA. When she disappeared, he began investigating and believed that Kogoro was responsible behind her disappearance since he was the last person to see her. However when he began further investigating Kogoro, it lead to him discovering Conan Edogawa is really Shinichi Kudo.

Kogoro's skills as a detective were different when he began Sleeping Kogoro and noted that around this time Shinichi had taken a leave of absence from school and noticed Conan had appeared around the exact same time. Upon these discoveries, Eisuke discovered Conan Edogawa was really Shinichi Kudo, revealing he has known of his true identity even before they first met. When he first met Conan, Eisuke purposely fell into him, knocking off his glasses. Then acting as if he couldn't see, he called Conan, Detective Mouri.

Eventually when Eisuke revealed his desire to go to America to join the CIA to follow in the footsteps of his father and sister, he expressed to Conan that he also wants to bring Ran and wants to ask for Shinichi's permission upon learning of the true nature of the relationship between Ran and Shinichi. Upon learning this, Conan revealed himself as Shinichi Kudo and refused Eisuke's request and in the process, Eisuke revealed this truly confirms his suspicions, revealing he knew all along of who Conan really was.

Two Murder Cases!|Episode 96]], she sees Conan without his glasses and notices he looks exactly the same as Shinichi when he was a child. She even tries to confront him about it, but [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] then arrives and claims that Conan is her distant nephew.<ref>Episode 96: [[Caught Up With the Great Detective!

An upcoming suspicion arc has been foreshadowed with Heiji Hattori's omamori and her wondering how Shinichi's fingerprints got on it when only Conan has touched it, coupled with Conan's recent lack of subtlety.
And in the [[Volume 66#Kazuha's Charm Case|Kazuha's Charm Case]], Ran told Conan if he has the resolution of the case yet, hinting that she continue suspecting about Shinichi being Conan.

[[File:Wataru Takagi.jpg|100px|right]]
When it seemed they would both die while disarming a bomb, [[Wataru Takagi|Detective Takagi]] agreed to follow Conan's instructions in exchange for telling him who he really is. Conan agreed but said he would tell him in the afterlife.<ref>Manga Chapter 372: The Most in This World...</ref> Takagi had also thought to himself that Conan was not just any normal kid prior to this, but he has not made this observation since nor has he asked Conan to explain his answer. It is worth noting however that Takagi is aware of Conan's [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch]] and will do nearly anything Conan asks him to do, including dressing up as a mailman in order to fool some kidnappers. Also, in a recent case Takagi refers to Kudo as "Shinichi-kun", something that is strange considering that the last contact Shinichi and Takagi had (Shiragami case) he still called him "Kudo-kun", and also in the [[Volume 63#Highway Murder Case|Shiragami Case]] he had the same attitude with Shinichi than with Conan in other cases, possibly because he continues suspecting about his identity. However, in the [[Super_Digest_Books#SDB80.2B_questions_translations|Q&A of the Super Digest Book 80+]], Gosho Aoyama stated that Takagi doesn't suspect Conan "even the tiniest bit".

====Keith Dan Stinger====

He became amazed by Conan's intelligence by discovering the fake sommelier that tried to poison Princess Mira and how he managed to alert the cockpit of his presence when he jumped onto the plane upon take off.

==== Rei Furuya/Tooru Amuro/Bourbon ====
[[File:Rei Furuya.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Rei Furuya|Rei]] suspects Conan is creating the Sleeping Kogoro, but it is unclear if he has any suspicions about Conan's identity or relationship to Shinichi. Also, in the final chapter of the [[Volume 85#Scarlet Showdown|Scarlet Showdown]], Conan said to him "liar" and then [[Rei Furuya|Furuya]] responded him "look who's talking", possibly because he also noted Conan is not just a very smart boy. However, Rei knows that there is a relationship between Conan and [[Yusaku Kudo]] since he is letting [[Subaru]] staying at the Kudo house.{{citation needed}} {{clear}}

[[Shukichi]] noticed that Conan is a skilled detective during their first meeting. During a case, he even writes to his sister [[Masumi]] that there is no problem if Conan is making the deduction. By the end of the case, he sent her an e-mail asking if she has already met the wizard. [[Shinichi]] met Shukichi 10 years ago in the beach, so there is a possibility that Shukichi knows that Conan is Shinichi due to his excellent memory.

List of characters who know Conan's identity

Sbrady538: /* Eisuke Hondou */

[[File:Op40-8.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Conan and Shinichi from [[WE GO]]]]
Over the course of the series, 22 characters have come to know that [[Conan Edogawa]] is actually [[Shinichi Kudo]] (11 of which are not manga [[canon]]). In addition, [[Ran Mouri]] has noticed similarities between the two and [[Kogoro Mouri]], [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Rei Furuya]] have shown signs of doubting that Conan is just ''"very smart"''. This should not be confused with the [[people who know Conan is really Sleeping Kogoro|people who know Conan is the puppeteer behind Sleeping Kogoro]].

In their respective categories, characters are listed by the order they came to discover (or become suspicious of) Conan's identity.

== Canon ==
So far eleven people have learned Conan's true identity is Shinichi in the manga [[canon]]. Four were told the truth, six discovered it for themselves. How the remaining one became aware of this is unconfirmed.

=== Hiroshi Agasa ===
[[File:Hiroshi Agasa.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] found out that in Volume 1, at the second chapter of the series. Shrunken Shinichi had to persuade Agasa that the child before him is Shinichi so that he could seek help.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=1|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=1-59116-327-7 |chapter=File 2 |language=English |location=San Francisco |date=2004-09-07 |page=54}}</ref>

=== Heiji Hattori ===
[[File:Heiji Hattori.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Heiji Hattori]] found out this fact in Volume 13 (Holmes Freak Murder Case), as he found Conan speaking in Heiji's voice after Heiji regained consciousness from Conan's stun gun.<ref>{{cite book |last=Aoyama |first=Gosho |title=Case Closed |volume=13 |publisher=Viz Media |date=2006-09-19 |isbn=1-4215-0443-X |chapter=File 1 |language=English |location=San Francisco }}</ref>

{{clear}}

=== Vermouth ===
[[File:Vermouth.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Vermouth]] realized similarities between Shinichi (when he was young) and Conan. She also chose not to betray Shinichi to the Black Organization, most likely because he and Ran saved her when she was disguised as a serial killer in New York.
{{clear}}
=== Eisuke Hondou ===
[[File:Eisuke Hondou.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Eisuke Hondou]] revealed his awareness of Conan's true idenitiy in Volume 60.<ref>''Detective Conan'', File 621.</ref> Originally when he began investigating the whereabouts of his sister, he was still unaware that Rena was his sister of the fact she is a CIA. When she disappeared, he began investigating and believed that Kogoro was responsible behind her disappearance since he was the last person to see her. However when he began further investigating Kogoro he discovered several things that lead him discovering Conan Edogawa is really Shinichi Kudo. Kogoro's skills as a detective
were different when he began Sleeping Kogoro and noted that around this time Shinichi had taken a leave of absence from school and noticed Conan had appeared around the exact same time. Upon these discoveries, Eisuke discovered Conan Edogawa was really Shinichi Kudo, revealing he has known of his true identity even before they first met. When he first met Conan, Eisuke purposely fell into him, knocking off his glasses. Then acting as if he couldn't see, he called Conan, Detective Mouri.

=== Subaru Okiya/Shuichi Akai===

|-
| style="vertical-align: top"|[[File:Subaru Okiya.jpg|100px|right]]

[[Subaru Okiya]] (officially revealed to be [[Shuichi Akai]] in File 898) obtained proof of Conan's identity when [[Yusaku_Kudo's_Cold_Case|he caught Conan pretending to be Shinichi over the phone]].<ref>Chapter 813</ref> Based on some of the questions he asked Ran, he may have deduced Conan was Shinichi very soon after he moved into the Kudo house,<ref>Paper Airplane Case</ref> but had lacked absolute proof up until the phone incident. Since finding out the truth, he teases Conan and has on occasion confronted him regarding his identity, but doesn't further press the issue until Conan is ready to reveal the truth himself. However, while Conan still refuses to speak of his identity, it's revealed he has already realised that Shuichi Akai knows he is Shinichi Kudo.<ref>Just Like a 17 Years Old Crime Scene</ref>
{{clear}}

=== Masumi Sera ===
[[File:Masumi Sera.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Masumi Sera|Sera]] seems to have known Conan was Shinichi before they first met recently. Masumi remembers Shinichi from some meeting they had in the past and has been since trying to encourage Conan to remember where he met her. In "Conan vs. Heiji, Deduction Battle Between the Detectives of the East and West" episode, it's confirmed that Sera knows when she thinks "Now we already know who's the winner" while looking towards Conan that thinking about the case, referring him as "Shinichi".
{{clear}}

=== Mary Sera ===
[[File:Mary.jpg|100px|right]]
In Volume 90 (Soul Detective Murder Case), [[Mary]] told Masumi that Conan is no longer [[Volume 92#A Chance Meeting at the Beach|the same person that she and Masumi met 10 years ago]]. This implies that she is aware that Conan is Shinichi.
{{clear}}

== Non-Canon ==

=== Kaitou Kid/Kaito Kuroba ===
[[File:Kaitou Kid.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Kaito Kuroba.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kaitou Kid]] (also known as ''Phantom Thief Kid'') becomes aware of Conan's true identity in [[The Last Wizard of the Century]]. While disguised as [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], Kid had bugged the phones on the Suzuki Financial Group's ship and therefore heard all of the conversation between Conan and Agasa on the phone. Not realizing they were being listened to, Agasa continued to refer to Conan as "Shinichi" on the phone as he normally does. It is assumed that afterwards Kid put two and two together. Kid's knowledge of Conan being Shinichi is confirmed in [[The Lost Ship in the Sky]]. Kid's knowledge of Conan's identity has not been stated in the manga and has not been confirmed by [[Gosho Aoyama]] to be canon, although in the manga Kid is definitely aware that Conan is no mere child.

In the TV Special [[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan]], the famous gentleman thief named [[Lupin III]] and his associates Jigen, Fujiko, and Goemon, through some means discover Conan's true identity and help him sneak back into Japan after traveling to the country Vespania (Conan would've needed a passport to return home, but his passport was for Shinichi Kudo).

=== Irish (Deceased) ===
[[File:Irish.jpg|100px|right]]
In the 13th movie, ''[[The Raven Chaser]]'', Black Organization member [[Irish]] discovers Conan's secret identity. However, instead of revealing it to the Organization, he decides to use that to gain more power with the boss, because of an old grudge he has with [[Gin]] for killing [[Pisco]], his mentor, without orders to do so. He is shot to death by [[Chianti]] before he can do anything.

=== Tokujiro Nagai ===
[[File:Tokujiro Nagai.jpg|100px|right]]
'''{{nihongo|Tokujiro Nagai|長井徳次郎|Nagai Tokujirō}}''', age 72, is the Nagai Toys shopkeeper in [[The Mysterious Boy]]. His wife was hospitalized due to a serious sickness, but he's earnings were too modest to afford her treatments, so he was forced to borrow money from Kuromaru Finance. Tsutomu Oshiro, a 38 years old employee, whenever he came by to check on the investment, callously bullied Nagai, which the old man endured for his wife's sake. But then Oshiro decided to demand repayment from the wife, heedless of her condition. When she heard that her husband had plunged himself into debt, she suffered a breakdown which contributed to her death soon afterwards. Then, Nagai murders Oshiro for revenge.

Upon that revelation, Nagai remembers Conan - or rather, Shinichi - from an incident ten years ago, when one of a group of children visiting his toy shop had dropped a toy engine to the floor, breaking it. Shinichi found out which child had done it, but Nagai kindly refused to punish the offender for this accident. The startlement from this realization convinces Nagai to turn himself over to the police, and Inspector Megure orders a thorough investigation of Kuromaru's dubious business practices. When Megure asks Nagai why he has decided to surrender himself, Nagai replies that a "mysterious boy who has [[APTX-4869|remained unchanged]] for ten years" has influenced him into doing so, as a sort of messenger from his late wife.

== Suspicious ==
Although several characters have caught on to the fact that Conan is much smarter than most children, only a few characters have questioned exactly why he is so smart. Although the [[FBI]] are aware of Conan's intelligence and even talk to him like he is an adult ([[Shuichi Akai]]), they do not seem to be too concerned about how he got so smart, especially since they have not encountered Conan's true self, [[Shinichi Kudo]]. Some of the police like [[Miwako Sato]] and [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] take Conan's deductions seriously, but like the FBI, they seem to believe he is just an exceptionally bright child.

=== Confirmed suspicious ===
==== Kogoro Mouri ====
[[File:Kogoro Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] was the first character to become suspicious of Conan's identity, albeit briefly. In [[Volume 2]], he felt like he had seen Conan from somewhere before, likely the time when Ran was in elementary school.<ref>[[Volume 2|File 10, Page 16]]</ref> Later, he noticed that Conan was once again pointing out things he overlooked, such as that all of the photos proving the suspects alibi had clocks in them. However, he instantly loses his suspicions when Conan spills another envelope of photos for the case, deciding that "a brat is a brat" after all.<ref>Manga Chapter 11: A Perfect Alibi</ref>

In the [[TV Station Murder Case]], Kogoro became suspicious about Conan for the second time. He was invited to attend a television live show as a guest star. However, a murder occurred at the studio. After finding out all the evidences, Conan lured Kogoro to a separate room, lying that [[Yoko Okino]] was in there. Just as usual, he decided to tranquilize Kogoro and used the man to solve the case. Unfortunately, when Kogoro woke up, he began to question Conan about Yoko's whereabouts. He was also suspicious about the fact that whenever Conan tried to pull him outside, he always fell asleep right after. Kogoro angrily grabbed the boy's suit jacket and wanted to "clear things up". Much to Conan's luck, Yoko Okino appeared for real and Kogoro completely lost his suspicions.

==== Ran Mouri ====

An upcoming suspicion arc has been foreshadowed with Heiji Hattori's omamori and her wondering how Shinichi's fingerprints got on it when only Conan has touched it, coupled with Conan's recent lack of subtlety.

His wife was hospitalized due to a serious sickness, but he's earnings were too modest to afford her treatments, so he was forced to borrow money from Kuromaru Finance. Tsutomu Oshiro, a 38 years old employee, whenever he came by to check on the investment, callously bullied Nagai, which the old man endured for his wife's sake. But then Oshiro decided to demand repayment from the wife, heedless of her condition. When she heard that her husband had plunged himself into debt, she suffered a breakdown which contributed to her death soon afterwards. Then, Nagai murders Oshiro for revenge.

Upon that revelation, Nagai remembers Conan - or rather, Shinichi - from an incident ten years ago, when one of a group of children visiting his toy shop had dropped a toy engine to the floor, breaking it. Shinichi found out which child had done it, but Nagai kindly refused to punish the offender for this accident. The startlement from this realization convinces Nagai to turn himself over to the police, and Inspector Megure orders a thorough investigation of Kuromaru's dubious business practices. When Megure asks Nagai why he has decided to surrender himself, Nagai replies that a "mysterious boy who has [[APTX-4869|remained unchanged]] for ten years" has influenced him into doing so, as a sort of messenger from his late wife.

== Suspicious ==
Although several characters have caught on to the fact that Conan is much smarter than most children, only a few characters have questioned exactly why he is so smart. Although the [[FBI]] are aware of Conan's intelligence and even talk to him like he is an adult ([[Shuichi Akai]]), they do not seem to be too concerned about how he got so smart, especially since they have not encountered Conan's true self, [[Shinichi Kudo]]. Some of the police like [[Miwako Sato]] and [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] take Conan's deductions seriously, but like the FBI, they seem to believe he is just an exceptionally bright child.

=== Confirmed suspicious ===
==== Kogoro Mouri ====
[[File:Kogoro Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] was the first character to become suspicious of Conan's identity, albeit briefly. In [[Volume 2]], he felt like he had seen Conan from somewhere before, likely the time when Ran was in elementary school.<ref>[[Volume 2|File 10, Page 16]]</ref> Later, he noticed that Conan was once again pointing out things he overlooked, such as that all of the photos proving the suspects alibi had clocks in them. However, he instantly loses his suspicions when Conan spills another envelope of photos for the case, deciding that "a brat is a brat" after all.<ref>Manga Chapter 11: A Perfect Alibi</ref>

In the [[TV Station Murder Case]], Kogoro became suspicious about Conan for the second time. He was invited to attend a television live show as a guest star. However, a murder occurred at the studio. After finding out all the evidences, Conan lured Kogoro to a separate room, lying that [[Yoko Okino]] was in there. Just as usual, he decided to tranquilize Kogoro and used the man to solve the case. Unfortunately, when Kogoro woke up, he began to question Conan about Yoko's whereabouts. He was also suspicious about the fact that whenever Conan tried to pull him outside, he always fell asleep right after. Kogoro angrily grabbed the boy's suit jacket and wanted to "clear things up". Much to Conan's luck, Yoko Okino appeared for real and Kogoro completely lost his suspicions.

==== Ran Mouri ====
[[File:Ran Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Ran_being_suspicious.jpg|thumb|left|Ran suspecting Conan is Shinichi.]]
[[Ran Mouri|Ran]] has on more than one occasion noticed the striking similarities between Shinichi and Conan, being his childhood friend and one of the people that know Shinichi the best.<ref>Episode 96.</ref> She first becomes suspicious during the Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]] when Conan deduces that the client is a surgeon in a manner similar to Shinichi's deductions, but her suspicions are diluted due to Conan playing with the toys. Later, her suspicions are raised due to Conan acting suspiciously mature for a child and then tricked him into saying indirectly that he's Shinichi. At the end of the episode her suspisions are cleared due to Conan being in the agency while Shinichi( Agasa using a voice changer to mimic)calls the agency.<ref>Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]]</ref> In [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!|Episode 96]], she sees Conan without his glasses and notices he looks exactly the same as Shinichi when he was a child. She even tries to confront him about it, but [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] then arrives and claims that Conan is her distant nephew.<ref>Episode 96: [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!]]</ref> Later on, in [[The Desperate Revival]], it is revealed that Ran believes Conan is Shinichi and is waiting for him to tell her.<ref>Episodes 188-193: [[The Desperate Revival]]</ref> She is only dissuaded from this when Shinichi appears at the same time that Conan does. It turns out that Haibara has given Conan a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]] that will return him to Kudo Shinichi and disguised herself as Conan. After a text message she sends to Shinichi is received on Conan's cell phone her suspicions are aroused again<ref>Manga Chapter 479: The Suspicious Message</ref>, but Conan uses Agasa's cell phone to call her as Shinichi and messages her his "new" cell phone number.<ref>Episode 400: [[Ran's Suspicions]] Manga Chapter 483: Unlocking It!</ref> Since then, Ran has apparently been too happy with having Shinichi's "secret number" to become suspicious of Conan.<ref> Manga Chapter 484: From Him to Her</ref>
An upcoming suspicion arc has been foreshadowed with Heiji Hattori's omamori and her wondering how Shinichi's fingerprints got on it when only Conan has touched it, coupled with Conan's recent lack of subtlety.
And in the [[Volume 66#Kazuha's Charm Case|Kazuha's Charm Case]], Ran told Conan if he has the resolution of the case yet, hinting that she continue suspecting about Shinichi being Conan.

==== Wataru Takagi ====
[[File:Wataru Takagi.jpg|100px|right]]
When it seemed they would both die while disarming a bomb, [[Wataru Takagi|Detective Takagi]] agreed to follow Conan's instructions in exchange for telling him who he really is. Conan agreed but said he would tell him in the afterlife.<ref>Manga Chapter 372: The Most in This World...</ref> Takagi had also thought to himself that Conan was not just any normal kid prior to this, but he has not made this observation since nor has he asked Conan to explain his answer. It is worth noting however that Takagi is aware of Conan's [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch]] and will do nearly anything Conan asks him to do, including dressing up as a mailman in order to fool some kidnappers. Also, in a recent case Takagi refers to Kudo as "Shinichi-kun", something that is strange considering that the last contact Shinichi and Takagi had (Shiragami case) he still called him "Kudo-kun", and also in the [[Volume 63#Highway Murder Case|Shiragami Case]] he had the same attitude with Shinichi than with Conan in other cases, possibly because he continues suspecting about his identity. However, in the [[Super_Digest_Books#SDB80.2B_questions_translations|Q&A of the Super Digest Book 80+]], Gosho Aoyama stated that Takagi doesn't suspect Conan "even the tiniest bit".

====Keith Dan Stinger====
[[File:Keith.jpg|100px|right]]
He became amazed by Conan's intelligence by discovering the fake sommelier that tried to poison Princess Mira and how he managed to alert the cockpit of his presence when he jumped onto the plane upon take off. Upon witnessing his actions, Keith reveals his suspicions that although Conan may look like a child, he has the mind of an adult and entrusts him along with Jigen to find evidence that proves Duke Gerard murdered Queen Sakura and Prince Gill.

=== Non confirmed suspicious===

==== Rei Furuya/Tooru Amuro/Bourbon ====
[[File:Rei Furuya.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Rei Furuya|Rei]] suspects Conan is creating the Sleeping Kogoro, but it is unclear if he has any suspicions about Conan's identity or relationship to Shinichi. Also, in the final chapter of the [[Volume 85#Scarlet Showdown|Scarlet Showdown]], Conan said to him "liar" and then [[Rei Furuya|Furuya]] responded him "look who's talking", possibly because he also noted Conan is not just a very smart boy. However, Rei knows that there is a relationship between Conan and [[Yusaku Kudo]] since he is letting [[Subaru]] staying at the Kudo house.{{citation needed}} {{clear}}

==== Jodie Starling ====
[[File:Jodie Starling.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] overheard [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] call Shinichi by the first half of his real name: "Shin-Conan". She noted the slip but didn't seem to understand what it meant.<ref>Sometime very soon after Scarlet Showdown</ref>
{{clear}}
==== Shukichi Haneda ====
[[File:Shukichi Haneda.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Shukichi]] noticed that Conan is a skilled detective during their first meeting. During a case, he even writes to his sister [[Masumi]] that there is no problem if Conan is making the deduction. By the end of the case, he sent her an e-mail asking if she has already met the wizard. [[Shinichi]] met Shukichi 10 years ago in the beach, so there is a possibility that Shukichi knows that Conan is Shinichi due to his excellent memory.
{{clear}}
=== People who questioned Conan's identity ===

==== Kurumi Shodo ====
[[File:Kurumi Shodo.jpg|100px|right]]
Shodo is blind, and based on Conan's speech manner, she concluded that he was in high school age and just had a high voice. She said to Conan that it was as if Sherlock Holmes was imitating a child.

Sbrady538: /* Subaru Okiya/Shuichi Akai */

[[File:Op40-8.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Conan and Shinichi from [[WE GO]]]]
Over the course of the series, 22 characters have come to know that [[Conan Edogawa]] is actually [[Shinichi Kudo]] (11 of which are not manga [[canon]]). In addition, [[Ran Mouri]] has noticed similarities between the two and [[Kogoro Mouri]], [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Rei Furuya]] have shown signs of doubting that Conan is just ''"very smart"''. This should not be confused with the [[people who know Conan is really Sleeping Kogoro|people who know Conan is the puppeteer behind Sleeping Kogoro]].

In their respective categories, characters are listed by the order they came to discover (or become suspicious of) Conan's identity.

So far eleven people have learned Conan's true identity is Shinichi in the manga [[canon]]. Four were told the truth, six discovered it for themselves. How the remaining one became aware of this is unconfirmed.

[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] was the first character to become suspicious of Conan's identity, albeit briefly. In [[Volume 2]], he felt like he had seen Conan from somewhere before, likely the time when Ran was in elementary school.<ref>[[Volume 2|File 10, Page 16]]</ref> Later, he noticed that Conan was once again pointing out things he overlooked, such as that all of the photos proving the suspects alibi had clocks in them. However, he instantly loses his suspicions when Conan spills another envelope of photos for the case, deciding that "a brat is a brat" after all.<ref>Manga Chapter 11: A Perfect Alibi</ref>

In the [[TV Station Murder Case]], Kogoro became suspicious about Conan for the second time. He was invited to attend a television live show as a guest star. However, a murder occurred at the studio. After finding out all the evidences, Conan lured Kogoro to a separate room, lying that [[Yoko Okino]] was in there. Just as usual, he decided to tranquilize Kogoro and used the man to solve the case. Unfortunately, when Kogoro woke up, he began to question Conan about Yoko's whereabouts. He was also suspicious about the fact that whenever Conan tried to pull him outside, he always fell asleep right after. Kogoro angrily grabbed the boy's suit jacket and wanted to "clear things up". Much to Conan's luck, Yoko Okino appeared for real and Kogoro completely lost his suspicions.

==== Ran Mouri ====
[[File:Ran Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Ran_being_suspicious.jpg|thumb|left|Ran suspecting Conan is Shinichi.]]
[[Ran Mouri|Ran]] has on more than one occasion noticed the striking similarities between Shinichi and Conan, being his childhood friend and one of the people that know Shinichi the best.<ref>Episode 96.</ref> She first becomes suspicious during the Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]] when Conan deduces that the client is a surgeon in a manner similar to Shinichi's deductions, but her suspicions are diluted due to Conan playing with the toys. Later, her suspicions are raised due to Conan acting suspiciously mature for a child and then tricked him into saying indirectly that he's Shinichi. At the end of the episode her suspisions are cleared due to Conan being in the agency while Shinichi( Agasa using a voice changer to mimic)calls the agency.<ref>Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]]</ref> In [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!|Episode 96]], she sees Conan without his glasses and notices he looks exactly the same as Shinichi when he was a child. She even tries to confront him about it, but [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] then arrives and claims that Conan is her distant nephew.<ref>Episode 96: [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!]]</ref> Later on, in [[The Desperate Revival]], it is revealed that Ran believes Conan is Shinichi and is waiting for him to tell her.<ref>Episodes 188-193: [[The Desperate Revival]]</ref> She is only dissuaded from this when Shinichi appears at the same time that Conan does. It turns out that Haibara has given Conan a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]] that will return him to Kudo Shinichi and disguised herself as Conan. After a text message she sends to Shinichi is received on Conan's cell phone her suspicions are aroused again<ref>Manga Chapter 479: The Suspicious Message</ref>, but Conan uses Agasa's cell phone to call her as Shinichi and messages her his "new" cell phone number.<ref>Episode 400: [[Ran's Suspicions]] Manga Chapter 483: Unlocking It!</ref> Since then, Ran has apparently been too happy with having Shinichi's "secret number" to become suspicious of Conan.<ref> Manga Chapter 484: From Him to Her</ref>
An upcoming suspicion arc has been foreshadowed with Heiji Hattori's omamori and her wondering how Shinichi's fingerprints got on it when only Conan has touched it, coupled with Conan's recent lack of subtlety.
And in the [[Volume 66#Kazuha's Charm Case|Kazuha's Charm Case]], Ran told Conan if he has the resolution of the case yet, hinting that she continue suspecting about Shinichi being Conan.

==== Wataru Takagi ====
[[File:Wataru Takagi.jpg|100px|right]]
When it seemed they would both die while disarming a bomb, [[Wataru Takagi|Detective Takagi]] agreed to follow Conan's instructions in exchange for telling him who he really is. Conan agreed but said he would tell him in the afterlife.<ref>Manga Chapter 372: The Most in This World...</ref> Takagi had also thought to himself that Conan was not just any normal kid prior to this, but he has not made this observation since nor has he asked Conan to explain his answer. It is worth noting however that Takagi is aware of Conan's [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch]] and will do nearly anything Conan asks him to do, including dressing up as a mailman in order to fool some kidnappers. Also, in a recent case Takagi refers to Kudo as "Shinichi-kun", something that is strange considering that the last contact Shinichi and Takagi had (Shiragami case) he still called him "Kudo-kun", and also in the [[Volume 63#Highway Murder Case|Shiragami Case]] he had the same attitude with Shinichi than with Conan in other cases, possibly because he continues suspecting about his identity. However, in the [[Super_Digest_Books#SDB80.2B_questions_translations|Q&A of the Super Digest Book 80+]], Gosho Aoyama stated that Takagi doesn't suspect Conan "even the tiniest bit".

====Keith Dan Stinger====
[[File:Keith.jpg|100px|right]]
He became amazed by Conan's intelligence by discovering the fake sommelier that tried to poison Princess Mira and how he managed to alert the cockpit of his presence when he jumped onto the plane upon take off. Upon witnessing his actions, Keith reveals his suspicions that although Conan may look like a child, he has the mind of an adult and entrusts him along with Jigen to find evidence that proves Duke Gerard murdered Queen Sakura and Prince Gill.

=== Non confirmed suspicious===

==== Rei Furuya/Tooru Amuro/Bourbon ====
[[File:Rei Furuya.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Rei Furuya|Rei]] suspects Conan is creating the Sleeping Kogoro, but it is unclear if he has any suspicions about Conan's identity or relationship to Shinichi. Also, in the final chapter of the [[Volume 85#Scarlet Showdown|Scarlet Showdown]], Conan said to him "liar" and then [[Rei Furuya|Furuya]] responded him "look who's talking", possibly because he also noted Conan is not just a very smart boy. However, Rei knows that there is a relationship between Conan and [[Yusaku Kudo]] since he is letting [[Subaru]] staying at the Kudo house.{{citation needed}} {{clear}}

==== Jodie Starling ====
[[File:Jodie Starling.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] overheard [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] call Shinichi by the first half of his real name: "Shin-Conan". She noted the slip but didn't seem to understand what it meant.<ref>Sometime very soon after Scarlet Showdown</ref>
{{clear}}
==== Shukichi Haneda ====
[[File:Shukichi Haneda.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Shukichi]] noticed that Conan is a skilled detective during their first meeting. During a case, he even writes to his sister [[Masumi]] that there is no problem if Conan is making the deduction. By the end of the case, he sent her an e-mail asking if she has already met the wizard. [[Shinichi]] met Shukichi 10 years ago in the beach, so there is a possibility that Shukichi knows that Conan is Shinichi due to his excellent memory.

List of characters who know Conan's identity

2017-06-03T12:10:53Z

Sbrady538: /* Subaru Okiya/Shuichi Akai */

[[File:Op40-8.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Conan and Shinichi from [[WE GO]]]]
Over the course of the series, 22 characters have come to know that [[Conan Edogawa]] is actually [[Shinichi Kudo]] (11 of which are not manga [[canon]]). In addition, [[Ran Mouri]] has noticed similarities between the two and [[Kogoro Mouri]], [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Rei Furuya]] have shown signs of doubting that Conan is just ''"very smart"''. This should not be confused with the [[people who know Conan is really Sleeping Kogoro|people who know Conan is the puppeteer behind Sleeping Kogoro]].

In their respective categories, characters are listed by the order they came to discover (or become suspicious of) Conan's identity.

== Canon ==
So far eleven people have learned Conan's true identity is Shinichi in the manga [[canon]]. Four were told the truth, six discovered it for themselves. How the remaining one became aware of this is unconfirmed.

=== Hiroshi Agasa ===
[[File:Hiroshi Agasa.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] found out that in Volume 1, at the second chapter of the series. Shrunken Shinichi had to persuade Agasa that the child before him is Shinichi so that he could seek help.<ref>{{cite book|last=Aoyama|first=Gosho|title=Case Closed|volume=1|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=1-59116-327-7 |chapter=File 2 |language=English |location=San Francisco |date=2004-09-07 |page=54}}</ref>

The Kudo couple, [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]]'s parents, [[Yusaku Kudo|Yusaku]] and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]], heard that from Professor Agasa in Volume 6, after finding the Kudo household empty.<ref>{{cite book |last=Aoyama |first=Gosho |title=Case Closed |volume=6 |publisher=Viz Media |date=2005-07-01 |isbn=1-59116-838-4 |chapter=File 1 |language=English |location=San Francisco }}</ref>
{{clear}}

=== Heiji Hattori ===
[[File:Heiji Hattori.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Heiji Hattori]] found out this fact in Volume 13 (Holmes Freak Murder Case), as he found Conan speaking in Heiji's voice after Heiji regained consciousness from Conan's stun gun.<ref>{{cite book |last=Aoyama |first=Gosho |title=Case Closed |volume=13 |publisher=Viz Media |date=2006-09-19 |isbn=1-4215-0443-X |chapter=File 1 |language=English |location=San Francisco }}</ref>

{{clear}}

=== Vermouth ===
[[File:Vermouth.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Vermouth]] realized similarities between Shinichi (when he was young) and Conan. She also chose not to betray Shinichi to the Black Organization, most likely because he and Ran saved her when she was disguised as a serial killer in New York.
{{clear}}
=== Eisuke Hondou ===
[[File:Eisuke Hondou.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Eisuke Hondou]] found out in Volume 60, after finding Conan's actions towards Ran as too similar to that of a boyfriend.<ref>''Detective Conan'', File 621.</ref> Also, it appears as if he knew since the first time he met Conan, as at the time he purposely fell into Conan, knocking off his glasses. Then acting as if he couldn't see, he called Conan, Detective Mouri.

=== Subaru Okiya/Shuichi Akai===

|-
| style="vertical-align: top"|[[File:Subaru Okiya.jpg|100px|right]]
| style="vertical-align: top"|[[File:Shuichi Akai.jpg|100px|right]]

[[Subaru Okiya]] (officially revealed to be [[Shuichi Akai]] in File 898) obtained proof of Conan's identity when [[Yusaku_Kudo's_Cold_Case|he caught Conan pretending to be Shinichi over the phone]].<ref>Chapter 813</ref> Based on some of the questions he asked Ran, he may have deduced Conan was Shinichi very soon after he moved into the Kudo house,<ref>Paper Airplane Case</ref> but had lacked absolute proof up until the phone incident. Since finding out the truth, he teases Conan and has on occasion confronted him regarding his identity, but doesn't further press the issue until Conan is ready the truth himself. However, Conan is revealed to have realised that Shuichi already knows he is Shinichi Kudo.<ref>Just Like a 17 Years Old Crime Scene</ref>
{{clear}}

=== Masumi Sera ===
[[File:Masumi Sera.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Masumi Sera|Sera]] seems to have known Conan was Shinichi before they first met recently. Masumi remembers Shinichi from some meeting they had in the past and has been since trying to encourage Conan to remember where he met her. In "Conan vs. Heiji, Deduction Battle Between the Detectives of the East and West" episode, it's confirmed that Sera knows when she thinks "Now we already know who's the winner" while looking towards Conan that thinking about the case, referring him as "Shinichi".
{{clear}}

=== Mary Sera ===
[[File:Mary.jpg|100px|right]]
In Volume 90 (Soul Detective Murder Case), [[Mary]] told Masumi that Conan is no longer [[Volume 92#A Chance Meeting at the Beach|the same person that she and Masumi met 10 years ago]]. This implies that she is aware that Conan is Shinichi.
{{clear}}

== Non-Canon ==

=== Kaitou Kid/Kaito Kuroba ===
[[File:Kaitou Kid.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Kaito Kuroba.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kaitou Kid]] (also known as ''Phantom Thief Kid'') becomes aware of Conan's true identity in [[The Last Wizard of the Century]]. While disguised as [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], Kid had bugged the phones on the Suzuki Financial Group's ship and therefore heard all of the conversation between Conan and Agasa on the phone. Not realizing they were being listened to, Agasa continued to refer to Conan as "Shinichi" on the phone as he normally does. It is assumed that afterwards Kid put two and two together. Kid's knowledge of Conan being Shinichi is confirmed in [[The Lost Ship in the Sky]]. Kid's knowledge of Conan's identity has not been stated in the manga and has not been confirmed by [[Gosho Aoyama]] to be canon, although in the manga Kid is definitely aware that Conan is no mere child.

=== Hiroki Sawada (Deceased) ===

Hiroki Sawada in [[The Phantom of Baker Street]]; how he knew that was not given, though it was most likely through the DNA Query Program.

In the TV Special [[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan]], the famous gentleman thief named [[Lupin III]] and his associates Jigen, Fujiko, and Goemon, through some means discover Conan's true identity and help him sneak back into Japan after traveling to the country Vespania (Conan would've needed a passport to return home, but his passport was for Shinichi Kudo).

=== Irish (Deceased) ===
[[File:Irish.jpg|100px|right]]
In the 13th movie, ''[[The Raven Chaser]]'', Black Organization member [[Irish]] discovers Conan's secret identity. However, instead of revealing it to the Organization, he decides to use that to gain more power with the boss, because of an old grudge he has with [[Gin]] for killing [[Pisco]], his mentor, without orders to do so. He is shot to death by [[Chianti]] before he can do anything.
{{clear}}

=== Alan Smithee (Deceased) ===
[[File:Adam Smithy.jpg|100px|right]]

=== Tokujiro Nagai ===
[[File:Tokujiro Nagai.jpg|100px|right]]
'''{{nihongo|Tokujiro Nagai|長井徳次郎|Nagai Tokujirō}}''', age 72, is the Nagai Toys shopkeeper in [[The Mysterious Boy]]. His wife was hospitalized due to a serious sickness, but he's earnings were too modest to afford her treatments, so he was forced to borrow money from Kuromaru Finance. Tsutomu Oshiro, a 38 years old employee, whenever he came by to check on the investment, callously bullied Nagai, which the old man endured for his wife's sake. But then Oshiro decided to demand repayment from the wife, heedless of her condition. When she heard that her husband had plunged himself into debt, she suffered a breakdown which contributed to her death soon afterwards. Then, Nagai murders Oshiro for revenge.

Upon that revelation, Nagai remembers Conan - or rather, Shinichi - from an incident ten years ago, when one of a group of children visiting his toy shop had dropped a toy engine to the floor, breaking it. Shinichi found out which child had done it, but Nagai kindly refused to punish the offender for this accident. The startlement from this realization convinces Nagai to turn himself over to the police, and Inspector Megure orders a thorough investigation of Kuromaru's dubious business practices. When Megure asks Nagai why he has decided to surrender himself, Nagai replies that a "mysterious boy who has [[APTX-4869|remained unchanged]] for ten years" has influenced him into doing so, as a sort of messenger from his late wife.

== Suspicious ==
Although several characters have caught on to the fact that Conan is much smarter than most children, only a few characters have questioned exactly why he is so smart. Although the [[FBI]] are aware of Conan's intelligence and even talk to him like he is an adult ([[Shuichi Akai]]), they do not seem to be too concerned about how he got so smart, especially since they have not encountered Conan's true self, [[Shinichi Kudo]]. Some of the police like [[Miwako Sato]] and [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] take Conan's deductions seriously, but like the FBI, they seem to believe he is just an exceptionally bright child.

=== Confirmed suspicious ===
==== Kogoro Mouri ====

=== Vermouth ===
[[File:Vermouth.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Vermouth]] realized similarities between Shinichi (when he was young) and Conan. She also chose not to betray Shinichi to the Black Organization, most likely because he and Ran saved her when she was disguised as a serial killer in New York.

=== Eisuke Hondou ===

[[Eisuke Hondou]] found out in Volume 60, after finding Conan's actions towards Ran as too similar to that of a boyfriend.<ref>''Detective Conan'', File 621.</ref> Also, it appears as if he knew since the first time he met Conan, as at the time he purposely fell into Conan, knocking off his glasses. Then acting as if he couldn't see, he called Conan, Detective Mouri.

{{clear}}

=== Masumi Sera ===
[[File:Masumi Sera.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Masumi Sera|Sera]] seems to have known Conan was Shinichi before they first met recently. Masumi remembers Shinichi from some meeting they had in the past and has been since trying to encourage Conan to remember where he met her. In "Conan vs. Heiji, Deduction Battle Between the Detectives of the East and West" episode, it's confirmed that Sera knows when she thinks "Now we already know who's the winner" while looking towards Conan that thinking about the case, referring him as "Shinichi".

=== Mary Sera ===
[[File:Mary.jpg|100px|right]]
In Volume 90 (Soul Detective Murder Case), [[Mary]] told Masumi that Conan is no longer [[Volume 92#A Chance Meeting at the Beach|the same person that she and Masumi met 10 years ago]]. This implies that she is aware that Conan is Shinichi.

== Non-Canon ==

=== Kaitou Kid/Kaito Kuroba ===
[[File:Kaitou Kid.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Kaito Kuroba.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kaitou Kid]] (also known as ''Phantom Thief Kid'') becomes aware of Conan's true identity in [[The Last Wizard of the Century]]. While disguised as [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], Kid had bugged the phones on the Suzuki Financial Group's ship and therefore heard all of the conversation between Conan and Agasa on the phone. Not realizing they were being listened to, Agasa continued to refer to Conan as "Shinichi" on the phone as he normally does. It is assumed that afterwards Kid put two and two together. Kid's knowledge of Conan being Shinichi is confirmed in [[The Lost Ship in the Sky]]. Kid's knowledge of Conan's identity has not been stated in the manga and has not been confirmed by [[Gosho Aoyama]] to be canon, although in the manga Kid is definitely aware that Conan is no mere child.

=== Irish (Deceased) ===
[[File:Irish.jpg|100px|right]]
In the 13th movie, ''[[The Raven Chaser]]'', Black Organization member [[Irish]] discovers Conan's secret identity. However, instead of revealing it to the Organization, he decides to use that to gain more power with the boss, because of an old grudge he has with [[Gin]] for killing [[Pisco]], his mentor, without orders to do so. He is shot to death by [[Chianti]] before he can do anything.

=== Tokujiro Nagai ===
[[File:Tokujiro Nagai.jpg|100px|right]]
'''{{nihongo|Tokujiro Nagai|長井徳次郎|Nagai Tokujirō}}''', age 72, is the Nagai Toys shopkeeper in [[The Mysterious Boy]]. His wife was hospitalized due to a serious sickness, but he's earnings were too modest to afford her treatments, so he was forced to borrow money from Kuromaru Finance. Tsutomu Oshiro, a 38 years old employee, whenever he came by to check on the investment, callously bullied Nagai, which the old man endured for his wife's sake. But then Oshiro decided to demand repayment from the wife, heedless of her condition. When she heard that her husband had plunged himself into debt, she suffered a breakdown which contributed to her death soon afterwards. Then, Nagai murders Oshiro for revenge.

Upon that revelation, Nagai remembers Conan - or rather, Shinichi - from an incident ten years ago, when one of a group of children visiting his toy shop had dropped a toy engine to the floor, breaking it. Shinichi found out which child had done it, but Nagai kindly refused to punish the offender for this accident. The startlement from this realization convinces Nagai to turn himself over to the police, and Inspector Megure orders a thorough investigation of Kuromaru's dubious business practices. When Megure asks Nagai why he has decided to surrender himself, Nagai replies that a "mysterious boy who has [[APTX-4869|remained unchanged]] for ten years" has influenced him into doing so, as a sort of messenger from his late wife.

== Suspicious ==
Although several characters have caught on to the fact that Conan is much smarter than most children, only a few characters have questioned exactly why he is so smart. Although the [[FBI]] are aware of Conan's intelligence and even talk to him like he is an adult ([[Shuichi Akai]]), they do not seem to be too concerned about how he got so smart, especially since they have not encountered Conan's true self, [[Shinichi Kudo]]. Some of the police like [[Miwako Sato]] and [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] take Conan's deductions seriously, but like the FBI, they seem to believe he is just an exceptionally bright child.

=== Confirmed suspicious ===
==== Kogoro Mouri ====
[[File:Kogoro Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] was the first character to become suspicious of Conan's identity, albeit briefly. In [[Volume 2]], he felt like he had seen Conan from somewhere before, likely the time when Ran was in elementary school.<ref>[[Volume 2|File 10, Page 16]]</ref> Later, he noticed that Conan was once again pointing out things he overlooked, such as that all of the photos proving the suspects alibi had clocks in them. However, he instantly loses his suspicions when Conan spills another envelope of photos for the case, deciding that "a brat is a brat" after all.<ref>Manga Chapter 11: A Perfect Alibi</ref>

In the [[TV Station Murder Case]], Kogoro became suspicious about Conan for the second time. He was invited to attend a television live show as a guest star. However, a murder occurred at the studio. After finding out all the evidences, Conan lured Kogoro to a separate room, lying that [[Yoko Okino]] was in there. Just as usual, he decided to tranquilize Kogoro and used the man to solve the case. Unfortunately, when Kogoro woke up, he began to question Conan about Yoko's whereabouts. He was also suspicious about the fact that whenever Conan tried to pull him outside, he always fell asleep right after. Kogoro angrily grabbed the boy's suit jacket and wanted to "clear things up". Much to Conan's luck, Yoko Okino appeared for real and Kogoro completely lost his suspicions.

==== Ran Mouri ====
[[File:Ran Mouri.jpg|100px|right]]
[[File:Ran_being_suspicious.jpg|thumb|left|Ran suspecting Conan is Shinichi.]]
[[Ran Mouri|Ran]] has on more than one occasion noticed the striking similarities between Shinichi and Conan, being his childhood friend and one of the people that know Shinichi the best.<ref>Episode 96.</ref> She first becomes suspicious during the Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]] when Conan deduces that the client is a surgeon in a manner similar to Shinichi's deductions, but her suspicions are diluted due to Conan playing with the toys. Later, her suspicions are raised due to Conan acting suspiciously mature for a child and then tricked him into saying indirectly that he's Shinichi. At the end of the episode her suspisions are cleared due to Conan being in the agency while Shinichi( Agasa using a voice changer to mimic)calls the agency.<ref>Episode 7: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]]</ref> In [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!|Episode 96]], she sees Conan without his glasses and notices he looks exactly the same as Shinichi when he was a child. She even tries to confront him about it, but [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] then arrives and claims that Conan is her distant nephew.<ref>Episode 96: [[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!]]</ref> Later on, in [[The Desperate Revival]], it is revealed that Ran believes Conan is Shinichi and is waiting for him to tell her.<ref>Episodes 188-193: [[The Desperate Revival]]</ref> She is only dissuaded from this when Shinichi appears at the same time that Conan does. It turns out that Haibara has given Conan a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]] that will return him to Kudo Shinichi and disguised herself as Conan. After a text message she sends to Shinichi is received on Conan's cell phone her suspicions are aroused again<ref>Manga Chapter 479: The Suspicious Message</ref>, but Conan uses Agasa's cell phone to call her as Shinichi and messages her his "new" cell phone number.<ref>Episode 400: [[Ran's Suspicions]] Manga Chapter 483: Unlocking It!</ref> Since then, Ran has apparently been too happy with having Shinichi's "secret number" to become suspicious of Conan.<ref> Manga Chapter 484: From Him to Her</ref>
An upcoming suspicion arc has been foreshadowed with Heiji Hattori's omamori and her wondering how Shinichi's fingerprints got on it when only Conan has touched it, coupled with Conan's recent lack of subtlety.
And in the [[Volume 66#Kazuha's Charm Case|Kazuha's Charm Case]], Ran told Conan if he has the resolution of the case yet, hinting that she continue suspecting about Shinichi being Conan.
{{clear}}

==== Wataru Takagi ====
[[File:Wataru Takagi.jpg|100px|right]]
When it seemed they would both die while disarming a bomb, [[Wataru Takagi|Detective Takagi]] agreed to follow Conan's instructions in exchange for telling him who he really is. Conan agreed but said he would tell him in the afterlife.<ref>Manga Chapter 372: The Most in This World...</ref> Takagi had also thought to himself that Conan was not just any normal kid prior to this, but he has not made this observation since nor has he asked Conan to explain his answer. It is worth noting however that Takagi is aware of Conan's [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch]] and will do nearly anything Conan asks him to do, including dressing up as a mailman in order to fool some kidnappers. Also, in a recent case Takagi refers to Kudo as "Shinichi-kun", something that is strange considering that the last contact Shinichi and Takagi had (Shiragami case) he still called him "Kudo-kun", and also in the [[Volume 63#Highway Murder Case|Shiragami Case]] he had the same attitude with Shinichi than with Conan in other cases, possibly because he continues suspecting about his identity. However, in the [[Super_Digest_Books#SDB80.2B_questions_translations|Q&A of the Super Digest Book 80+]], Gosho Aoyama stated that Takagi doesn't suspect Conan "even the tiniest bit".

====Keith Dan Stinger====
[[File:Keith.jpg|100px|right]]
He became amazed by Conan's intelligence by discovering the fake sommelier that tried to poison Princess Mira and how he managed to alert the cockpit of his presence when he jumped onto the plane upon take off. Upon witnessing his actions, Keith reveals his suspicions that although Conan may look like a child, he has the mind of an adult and entrusts him along with Jigen to find evidence that proves Duke Gerard murdered Queen Sakura and Prince Gill.
{{clear}}

=== Non confirmed suspicious===

==== Rei Furuya/Tooru Amuro/Bourbon ====
[[File:Rei Furuya.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Rei Furuya|Rei]] suspects Conan is creating the Sleeping Kogoro, but it is unclear if he has any suspicions about Conan's identity or relationship to Shinichi. Also, in the final chapter of the [[Volume 85#Scarlet Showdown|Scarlet Showdown]], Conan said to him "liar" and then [[Rei Furuya|Furuya]] responded him "look who's talking", possibly because he also noted Conan is not just a very smart boy. However, Rei knows that there is a relationship between Conan and [[Yusaku Kudo]] since he is letting [[Subaru]] staying at the Kudo house.{{citation needed}} {{clear}}

==== Jodie Starling ====
[[File:Jodie Starling.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] overheard [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] call Shinichi by the first half of his real name: "Shin-Conan". She noted the slip but didn't seem to understand what it meant.<ref>Sometime very soon after Scarlet Showdown</ref>
{{clear}}
==== Shukichi Haneda ====
[[File:Shukichi Haneda.jpg|100px|right]]
[[Shukichi]] noticed that Conan is a skilled detective during their first meeting. During a case, he even writes to his sister [[Masumi]] that there is no problem if Conan is making the deduction. By the end of the case, he sent her an e-mail asking if she has already met the wizard. [[Shinichi]] met Shukichi 10 years ago in the beach, so there is a possibility that Shukichi knows that Conan is Shinichi due to his excellent memory.
{{clear}}
=== People who questioned Conan's identity ===

==== Kurumi Shodo ====
[[File:Kurumi Shodo.jpg|100px|right]]
Shodo is blind, and based on Conan's speech manner, she concluded that he was in high school age and just had a high voice. She said to Conan that it was as if Sherlock Holmes was imitating a child.

==== Investigation Chapter ====
The [[Detective Boys]] are at a shrine dedicated to Shōin Yoshida, a famous figure of the Meiji Restoration. While there, they witness two men attempt to wrestle a book from a woman named Kimiko Kobayakawa. After the two men flee, Kobayakawa explains that the two men are after her grandpa's diary which contains the location of a treasure which could buy a country. [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]], [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], and the Detective Boys decode the diary to find the location of the treasure. The picture depicts a fox staring at a stream full of carp with the message "Feed the carp to the fox" beside it. Kobayakawa assumes it means the stream of carp she has at her house and takes them to Tsuwano; on the way, they meet up with Kimiko's friend, Shigeru Kawaguchi, and her servant, Tsuneo Kikkawa. Once arriving to Tsuwano, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] realizes what the code means and folds the picture to cover the stream resulting in the message "Below the top of the hidden Inari". They search an Inari Shrine and find a map of Hagi with the words, "Reflect the castle in the eye of the cat, and look under the mouse". While exploring Hagi, Kimiko, [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]], and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] are kidnapped by the two men from before.

==== Decipherment Chapter ====
The kidnappers call Kobayakawa's phone and demand Conan's group to find the treasure before nightfall. Conan realizes that the map of Hagi has the same shape of a cat. He overlaps the picture of a cat from the diary with the map and realizes the location pinpointed by the picture points them to a temple. Once there, Conan realizes that in the previous riddle, "mouse" was referring to the English word mouth. Conan finds the next clue in a stone lantern, and explains that the opening of a lantern is called a fire mouth. The clue contains a ripped page of the diary which tells them they should go to a cave infested with Kappas to construct a map. Kikkawa directs them to Akiyoshi cave, the only cave containing a lake. Once there, Conan realizes the diary page contains panels of a jumbled map and organizes them accordingly to the cave's kanji. Once organized, the map tells them to find the pair of dragons where a fox rock shall point to a rock of light. Conan asks Kikkawa to direct them to place with two waterfalls. Upon arrival, the group discovers a shadow of a fox cast by rock formations and at the tip of the shadow, they find a rock with a mirror inside. The group pushes the rock which reveals a cave underneath and navigates through it with the help of the constructed map.
