{{nihongo|'''Eri Kisaki'''|妃英理|Kisaki Eri}}, known as '''Eva Kadan''' in the English Funimation dub, is a character in the manga and anime franchise ''[[Detective Conan]]''. Her real name is '''{{nihongo|Eri Mouri|毛利英理|Mōri Eri}}'''. She began to use her maiden name again after she began living separately from her husband [[Kogoro Mouri]]. She also runs her law practice under her maiden name. In a recent hospitalization, her name was displayed as "Eri Mouri" on the door. She has one daughter, [[Ran Mouri]]. Eri has advanced skills in Judo, taught to her by Kogoro.

== Background ==
[[File:Eri and Yukiko.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Eri and her childhood friend, Yukiko Kudo.]]
The separately-living wife of [[Kogoro Mouri]], Eri is a defense lawyer who often gets tangled in Kogoro's cases, usually serving as an extra pair of eyes when it becomes time to investigate a crime. Although she does not like Kogoro's attitude and personality (especially his drinking and skirt-chasing habits), she still deeply loves and cares for him, often testing him to see if he still cares about her as well.

Eri and Kogoro, like [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and [[Heiji Hattori|Heiji]] and [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]], had been best friends since childhood, falling in love in their teens. Ten years before the ''Detective Conan'' storyline starts, however, Kogoro and Eri separated and took different paths in their lives.<ref>[[Volume 11|Volume 11, File 107, Page 15: "The Two Mysteries"]]; Ran says that it's already been 10 years since Eri left.</ref> Ran had believed that Eri had separated from Kogoro because he had shot her in the leg to get her away from a crazed serial killer, when in fact Eri had completely respected Kogoro for his decision, which she also believed was the correct one. She had left him when she had cooked him a gratitude dinner afterwards, which Kogoro assessed (perhaps rightfully) to be completely inedible.<ref name=target>[[The Fourteenth Target|Movie 2: ''The Fourteenth Target'']]</ref> After this, Eri focused full time on her duties as a lawyer and has since become a highly respected (and feared) member of her profession, which in time even resulted in a movie based on her performance in court.<ref>[[Volume 93#Eri Kisaki Abduction Case|Volume 93, File 986: "Eri's SOS"]]</ref>

In high school, Eri and her schoolmate and close friend, [[Yukiko Kudo]], was involved in a "Miss Teitan High School" pageant and were tied in the number of votes, due to the lateness of Kogoro.<ref name=Alike>[[Alike Princesses|Episode 333-334: Alike Princesses]]</ref> He had forgotten to vote, and by the time he had come to vote, it was too late.<ref name=Alike /> It was later discovered that due to his clumsiness, he thought that the "Miss" meant "mistake" and was going to vote for Eri as a result of that misconception, much to her anger later on.<ref name=Alike/>
{{clearleft}}

== Personality ==
[[File:Eri's Cat, Goro.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Eri's pet cat, Goro, whom she named after Kogoro.]]
Eri is considered incredibly attractive. Various men of different ages have pined for her, but she always turns them down, mostly due to her feelings for Kogoro.<ref name=coffee/><ref name=LoveOf>[[The Love of Lawyer Eri Kisaki|Episode 474: The Love of Lawyer Eri Kisaki]]</ref><ref name=Suspect>[[Kogoro Mouri, Suspect|Episode 199-200: Kogoro Mouri, Suspect]]</ref> She and Yukiko were considered the two most beautiful girls at Teitan High School back when they were students.<ref name=Alike/> Even though the result ended in a tie, the two remained very close friends, often letting little [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] play together and have playdates.<ref name=childhood>[[Shinichi Kudō's Childhood Adventure|Episode 472-473: Shinichi Kudō's Childhood Adventure]]</ref> Shinichi remembers often how Eri would give him a big scolding for starting trouble.<ref name=coffee/>

Eri's personality suits her occupation as a lawyer. She is often very questioning, and gets herself involved in the investigation of cases along with Kogoro, much to his chagrin. She is also tactical and has high moral ground, generally avoids accepting requests from people with clear criminal act<ref name=client>[[Kogoro Mouri, Suspect|Episode 199-200: Kogoro Mouri, Suspect]]</ref> unless she believes that there is something behind the scene or the request is related to the case she and/or Kogoro are investigating in.

She has a cat, a [[Wikipedia: Russian Blue|Russian Blue]] named "Goro," whom she cares for very deeply; in fact, Goro's name comes from "KoGORO" of Kogoro Mouri, since to her the cat and Kogoro both act very similar in some ways.<ref name=Goro>[[Secret of the Russian Blue|Episode 445: Secret of the Russian Blue]]</ref><ref name=LoveOf/> Eri is also very close friends with her secretary, [[Midori Kuriyama]].

Apart from being highly intelligent and has a sharp eye for details, Eri is also a skilled judoka, taught by Kogoro himself.<ref name=coffee /> She has proven on more than one occasion that she can lend a big helping hand in cases, and her deductions are almost always accurate.<ref name=Alike /><ref name=Suspect /> Ran often goes to Eri for advice, especially on Ran's relationship with Shinichi.<ref name=Blind>[[The Blind Spot in the Darkness|Episode 170-171: The Blind Spot in the Darkness]]</ref> Eri has often half-jokingly said that her best advice for Ran is to never get involved with a detective.<ref name=coffee/>

In chapter 985, it's revealed Lawyers like Eri use Western-style comma (,).

Eri is shown to care for those she knows and loves, like in movie 4, she came and stayed with Kogoro, because Ran had amnesia. In episode 474, she worried about her cat goro so much that she cried. She said she doesn't care about Kogoro. But in reality, however, she still loves him and said if he wouldn't flirt, she would return. In an episode, she pretended to not hear him because she isn't ready.

== Appearance ==
Eri is a fairly tall and light-skinned woman. She has long and wavy brown hair reaching her lower-back with shorter bangs framing the sides of her face, most of which she usually keeps done up in a bun. Slender yet very curvaceous in built, she is shown to be very beautiful and admired by most men, using her wedding ring despite the separation as a deterrent to would-be suiters (while secretly also because she still loves Korogo). She has been well-known for her stunning beauty since high school, where she was only ever rivaled by in looks by Yukiko Kudo. She wears simple black glasses and is commonly seen wearing business suits.

==Abilities==
===Intelligence===
Eri is highly intelligent and skilled at solving cases, as in her first appearance she was able to find out the identity of the culprit and how culprit did it. In other cases she was able to find clues faster than Conan and give it to the officer in charge.

===Martial arts===
Eri is skilled at judo, being taught by her husband Kogoro. Her normal technique is ippon seoi-nage(one-arm shoulder throw) which she uses when facing criminals.

===Other skills===
She is considered to be a skilled lawyer, while Ran considers her best. In movie 2, she was said to be horrible at cooking and Gosho Aoyama said in super digest book that her bad cooking is also part of canon.

==== Eri's father ====
[[File:Eris father.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Kogoro and Eri speaking to Eri's father.]]
Eri's father has only been mentioned once, but it's noted that he cares a lot for his daughter and is very overprotective.
{{clear}}

==== [[Kogoro Mouri]] ====
{{main|Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki}}
[[File:Kogoro and Eri.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Kogoro and Eri.]]
Even though Eri is separated from Kogoro, and has been for quite some time, she still cares for him and loves him. She often mentions that she would go back to him if he would just be a little bit nicer and not act immaturely to her.<ref name=coffee>[[Coffee Shop Murder Case|Episode 32: Coffee Shop Murder Case]]</ref> Very often, she sees Kogoro treat her nicely and gets hope, but then he does something stupid that angers her again, ruining any hope she has of them being back together. She remembers many very important dates in their relationship, and it is found out that she and Kogoro share many things in their minds, including the idea of wearing the outfits both, wore on their first date on its anniversary (each of them made this decision independently).<ref name=LoveOf /> Very often, their daughter, Ran, tries to get them to hook up with each other by planning out ways for them to see each other out of the blue.<ref name=scuba>[[Scuba Diving Murder Case|Episode 114-115: Scuba Diving Murder Case]]</ref> Ran also tries getting Eri to help give Kogoro clients.<ref name=miaso>[[Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!|Episode 96: Caught Up With the Great Detective! Two Murder Cases!]]</ref>

[[File:Eri Kisaki hair down.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Eri with her hair down while getting a hair cut.]]

In ''[[The Fourteenth Target]]'', Eri and Kogoro are shown having a great time eating dinner, but it ends when Kogoro looks out the window and sees the very attractive owner of the bar that he visits.<ref name=target/> This makes Eri turn angry and act how she normally acts to Kogoro. In the two-part episode, ''[[Scuba Diving Murder Case]]'', Eri accidentally loses her wedding ring on the beach, but pretends to have left it at home to see if Kogoro noticed.<ref name=scuba/> She gets visibly angry when Kogoro doesn't appear to notice it, especially when he leaves their lunch early to go back to the beach.<ref name=scuba/> Later, it is discovered that Kogoro had always known that she wasn't wearing her wedding ring, and had gone back to the beach to look for it.<ref name=scuba/> This left a visibly shocked Eri to drive home speechless, but pleased.<ref name=scuba/>

In another episode, Eri captures a confession from Kogoro saying that he misses her and wishes she would come back to him on a minidisc, replaying it over and over again afterwards.<ref name=Suspect/> However, even though they both miss each other, both of them still pretend not to care, and even become incredibly nasty to each other.<ref name=scuba/> Kogoro even goes on the opposing side of a case that Eri is working on, in a plan done by her professional rival [[Reiko Kujo]] to try and get under Eri's skin.<ref name=Battle>[[Courtroom Battle: Kisaki vs. Kogoro|Episode 264-265: Courtroom Battle: Kisaki vs. Kogoro]]</ref> However, her plan fails, as Kogoro's testimony can help out Eri's case instead of Reiko's.<ref name=Battle/>
{{clearleft}}

==== [[Ran Mouri]] ====
Despite having a rocky relationship with Kogoro, Eri continues to have a very loving and nurturing relationship with their only daughter. Ran has been trying to get her parents back together ever since they started living separately when she was 6 years old <ref name=The Two Mysteries>Manga Volume 11: Files 107 (The Two Mysteries)</ref>. When they can find the time, Eri and Ran like to meet up so they can catch up on what's been happening in each other's lives and during those moments together Ran tries to convince her mother to come back home to live with them as a family again <ref name=Coffee Shop Case>Manga Volume 11: Files 105-107 (Coffee Shop Case)</ref>. Ran was determined to save Eri from her kidnappers in [[Lawyer Kisaki's SOS]].

==== [[Shinichi Kudo]]/[[Conan Edogawa]] ====
Shinichi/Conan and Eri share a somewhat equal level of intelligence when analysing crime scenes. Eri's deducing skills were more notable in [[Kogoro Mouri, Suspect]], where she was able to submit a string and a piece of metal before Conan could bring it to Inspector Yamamura's attention. She considers Conan a big help in murder cases. At first, Eri seemed slightly suspicious of Conan, but later she concludes that he is simply a boy who is very smart for his age, even helping him in showing off deduction shows. Eri respects Shinichi/Conan's and his deducing skills and vaguely accepts Shinichi and Ran's relationship. She has also told Ran to "choose her man carefully," indicating not to make the same mistake she did (most likely referring to her current unstable relationship with Kogoro jokingly).

On the other side, although Conan respects Eri, he is also afraid of her because he got scolded so many times by Eri in the past that he developed a negative reaction just from seeing her. Conan forgot her face when Eri was first introduced in the anime since he hasn't met her for ten years.

==== [[Yukiko Kudo]] ====
Yukiko Kudo is a close friend of Eri, and (unlike Eri) finds her daughter Ran Mouri, a perfect match for her son. Yukiko and Eri competed in a "Miss Teitan High School" contest, which ended up being a tie because Kogoro did not show up in time to cast his vote.

=== Rival ===
==== [[Reiko Kujo]] ====
Reiko Kujo is a prosecutor and rival of Eri Kisaki. They compete in several anime-only episodes called variations of "Courtroom Confrontation".

'''{{nihongo|Miwako Sato|佐藤美和子|Satō Miwako}}''', also known as '''Detective Simone''' in the [[Funimation]] dub, is a police assistant inspector and detective in the manga and anime franchise ''[[Detective Conan]]''.

== Background ==
[[Image:Miwako and her father.png|thumb|left|200px|Miwako and her last moment with her father.]]
Eighteen years ago, when she was still at elementary school, Miwako lost her father, [[Masayoshi Sato]], in a traffic accident as he was about to deliver a bank robber to the police - an event that marked her life. She eventually became a police officer on her own and now works alongside [[Inspector Megure]], [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], [[Kazunobu Chiba]], and especially [[Wataru Takagi]] in the Tokyo police district. Since joining the police force, her natural attractiveness has made practically every male police officer vie for her attention and scorns anyone who gets too close with to, always trying to interfere in any growing relationship.

Sato first met [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and the [[Detective Boys]] during a blackmail case against Nichiuri TV.<ref>Manga Chapter 190: The 56 Thousand Hostages</ref> In a subsequent case which dealt with a cunning murder of a banker's wife by her husband, she became impressed with Conan's intellect and deductionary ability and has since come to trust his judgements implicitly.<ref>Manga Chapter 210: An Unexpected Rival</ref> Eventually, the case of her father's death was also resolved with [[Wataru Takagi|Takagi]]'s help, which helped fanning the spark of affection she was feeling for him at the time.<ref>Manga Chapter 269: Time's Up</ref> Although Sato generally follows order from Megure, at one point she secretly asks Takagi investigate a case and not reports to the police department on their whereabouts, which almost leads to their fatality.

Sato's first love interest was [[Jinpei Matsuda]], whom she only got to know briefly due to his death in a bomb explosion. Although she denied it at first, she finally acknowledged her feelings for Takagi. Nonetheless, for a very long time, each time they were about to take their relationship to the very next step, something got in the way (mostly in the shape of Miwako's best friend, [[Yumi Miyamoto|Yumi]]), until Sato and Takagi - mostly undisturbed (thanks to the help of Conan and the Detective Boys for creating a makeshift reason for the interlopers to leave) - shared their very first kiss when Takagi was hospitalized in the course of a hard case.<ref>Manga Chapter 673: The Common Pattern</ref>Then had their second kiss (and third) when Takagi survived a bombing accident.<ref>Episode 683: The Life-Threatening Broadcast of Love(Enter The Scene)</ref>

== Personality ==
Sato is considered one of the most dangerous members of the police, being not at all afraid to get tangled with dangerous men in fights, which she almost always wins. She has a strong sense of justice, and hates criminals who take lives for an idiotic reason. She does have a softer personality, in which she is very friendly with the [[Detective Boys]], and especially [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]], whom she considers is a big help in difficult cases. When in action, however, Sato can be quite reckless and daring, which has earned her the title 'The Silver Witch' among car racers on Mount Fuyuna due to her driving style.<ref>Manga Chapter 663: The True Identity of the Witch</ref>. Sato can also get highly emotional if cases involve people close to her, like Takagi and Matsuda.

Her favorite hobbies are going to the karaoke, attending all-you-can-eat buffets, and going out to eat ramen. She dislikes expensive restaurants.

She appears to be traumatized of Ferris Wheels most likely because of Matsuda, as seen during her date with Takagi in [[Tropical Land]]. <ref>Manga Chapter 406: Misguided but Successful Arrest</ref>.

== Appearance ==
Sato is a fairly tall and slender woman of fair complexion. She has short brown hair reaching just past her nape with strands framing the sides of her face and blue eyes. Apart from hair color, she is noted to have a striking resemblance to Sumiko Kobayashi, even similar hairstyles. She is well-recognized as a beautiful woman of curvaceous and well-endow built. She is commonly seen wearing a light blue short skirt, dark blue shirt, blue jacket, black leggings, and low black heels.

== Skills ==
=== Physical Prowess ===
Greatly belying her feminine form, Sato knows to be very fierce fighter, effortlessly taking down criminals much larger than her. She has advanced prowess in jujitsu and wrestling maneuvers, often ending the confrontation in a single move. She is also quite strong, having once crushed her cellphone in her hand during a fit of anger.

=== Firearms ===
Sato is proficient in guns, being able to aim accurately even in very difficult situations.

=== Driving ===
Sato is a strong and sometimes a reckless driver. She owns a Mazda RX-7.

=== Stadium Bomber Case (Manga: [[Volume 19|189]]-[[Volume 20|191]], Anime: [[The Indiscriminate Stadium Threatening Case|130-131]]) ===
Miwako's first appearance was in episode 130, and in manga file 190, where she is seen trying to arrest the culprit's accomplice along with other police officers, but failed.

=== Treadmill Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 21|208-210]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story|146-147]]) ===
This case is the very beginning of the long and enduring love story between Miwako Sato and her fellow police officer, [[Wataru Takagi]].

One night, Sato and her best friend [[Yumi Miyamoto]] from the traffic department have a drink together. In her drunken state, Sato unknowingly reveals to Yumi the person that she has feelings for. However, when she wakes up, she doesn't remember the exact details of what she has told her friend. The next day, Sato arrives at the Police Headquarters and meets up with detective [[Wataru Takagi|Takagi]], who is talking to the [[Detective Boys]] at the time. She asks Takagi who the children are, only to be mistaken by them that she is his girlfriend. However, both of them deny this. She also wonders if Takagi has heard anything from Yumi, without knowing that her friend has already told the police officer about what happened the previous night, saying that the person whom Sato likes is "someone from the first investigation division".

Later, the bank manager from a recent bank robbery case comes to see the police. During his phone call to his wife, everyone hears her sudden scream. Sato immediately drives Takagi, Conan and the manager to their house, only to discover the wife's stabbed body instead. The person to be in charge of this murder case is Inspector [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], a police officer who has just been promoted recently. Sato sarcastically congratulates Shiratori on his rapid promotion, and jokingly comments that he may as well consider her "a possible wedding match", without knowing that this statement has raised a major misunderstanding from Takagi, who thinks that she really has affection for the new police inspector.

With the help from Conan, the trick and the identity of the killer are uncovered, and the case goes to an end. When all is done, Shiratori invites Sato to have dinner with him at a restaurant that he knows, but she turns down the offer, saying that French cuisine isn't her favorite. She instead invites Takagi to go out and eat ramen together. Just as the misunderstanding earlier is about to be cleared and Takagi finally has the chance to be with Sato, a drunken [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] suddenly appears and suggests to them to go out for a drink with him at a bar. Sato immediately approves of the idea despite the other invitation to Takagi, thus raising another serious misconception: Detective Sato has special feelings for Inspector Megure.

=== Innocent Suspect Case (Manga: [[Volume 23|231]]-[[Volume 24|233]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 2|156-157]]) ===
In the course of chasing down Higashida, a suspect in a murder case, Sato corners him in a public bathroom and manages to cuff him to herself to end any further escape attempts. However, she soon discovers that she has accidentally cuffed them around a toilet pipe, meaning neither of them were going anywhere. When Higashida protests his innocence, and that he has to catch a plane the next day to attend his daughter's wedding, Sato relies on Takagi and the Detective Boys to find the true culprit without alerting headquarters to the embarrassing situation - headquarters, meanwhile, launches a hunt for the apparently missing Higashida, Sato and Takagi. While Takagi and the Detective Boys are able to unveil the true culprit, proving Higashida innocent, they also discover that the building that Sato is trapped in is due to be demolished by Agasa using the Tropical Rainbow device, an experimental bomb that detonates with a multicoloured explosion. Conan manages to subdue Agasa before he hits the button using his [[Power-Enhancing Kick Shoes|power shoes]], and Sato is cut free - though naturally the embarrassing situation was found out. Sato also finds herself having to explain to Takagi that she only sees Megure as a father figure - much to Takagi's relief.

=== Sato's Father Case (Manga: [[Volume 27|267-269]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 3|205-206]]) ===
It is the last day before the case of Sato's father's death - a murder/robbery - hits the statute of limitations, allowing the culprit to leave scot-free. Sato intends to solve both this case and a serial arson case currently ongoing in the city, promising Takagi a request if they are successful. In the course of investigating, Sato gives Takagi her father's handcuffs to use, being as hers had to be broken to release her during the [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 2|Innocent Suspect case]]. However, the arsonist attacks Takagi and uses the cuffs to restrain him to a set of window bars in his final target building. As midnight approaches, Sato - unaware of Takagi's predicament - sits down with the culprit of her father's murder, and once midnight has passed he reveals to her the entire story. At this point, Sato reveals to him that given that time outside Japan does not count towards the statute of limitations, and he had spent time in Italy since the crime, the time limit had been extended some. While the suspect knew this, upon returning to Japan from Italy a flight delay due to bad weather caused his arrival time to fall just after midnight the day after the scheduled time - meaning there are in fact still twenty-four hours in which he could be charged, and he had just given a full confession. He is promptly arrested.

Sato is then informed of Takagi's situation, and returns to the warehouse where the arsonist - subdued by Conan - has struck. Takagi has managed to escape by breaking the window bars off the frame - being unabl;e to bring himself to break Sato's father's handcuffs - and he collapses in Sato's arms, but ultimately survives. Once he has recuperated, he uses his request to ask Sato out on a date - which she doubles with tailing a suspect, to Takagi's annoyance.

=== Police Escort Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 30|296-298]], Anime: [[The Shinkansen Transport Case|240-241]]) ===

=== Sato's Omiai Case (Manga: [[Volume 32|328]]-[[Volume 33|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ===
[[File:Miwako picking randomly.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sato randomly picks up a file.]]
In these episodes, Sato and Takagi's feelings for each other are explored. Sato chose randomly and incidentally landed on Shiratori for her omiai (arranged date). Meanwhile, Sato realized her feelings for Takagi. Before she and Shiratori can kiss, Conan stopped them with Takagi and [[Tomoaki Araide|Dr. Araide's]] help.

=== Parade Bomber Case (Manga: [[Volume 36|366-368]], Anime: [[Parade of Malice and Saint|301-302]]) ===
Sato and the rest of the department are undercover at the Tokyo Spirits' victory parade, having received a fax alluding to a bombing from three years ago that targeted police. She comes across the Detective Boys and Professor Agasa, and then Takagi, also undercover. However, Sato abruptly slaps him and scolds him, since as a new addition to the Beika police he did not have to be undercover. Privately, she is upset that his diguise makes him resemble [[Matsuda Jinpei|an officer]] who apparently died in the prior case. Takagi returns his disguise to his car, shortly before a bomb explodes underneath the car. Sato attempts to pull him out, suffering burns on her hands, before Miyamoto informs her that Takagi had in fact gotten away. With the help of Conan and the Detective Boys, it is determined that the allusions to the previous case and the bombs are all false flags and this is in fact a robbery targeting the postal service - the police organise a sting and the offenders are taken in.

Later, Sato suggests to Takagi that they should cancel an upcoming date as everyone who Sato cares about, including her father, an old teacher, a club senpai and (though she does not say out loud) the officer that died in the previous bombings, seems to disappear and she would prefer not to live through such pain again. Takagi struggles to reveal his feelings, and ultimately - in front of the Detective Boys, Shiratori, Miyamoto, and a significant portion of the police department - agrees that their relationship should remain professional, much to the audience's chagrin. Though Takagi tries to get her attention as she walks away, Sato merely waves.

=== The Trembling Police Headquarters: 12 Million Hostages (Manga: [[Volume 36|369]]-[[Volume 37|373]], Anime: [[The Trembling Police Headquarters: 12 Million Hostages|304]]) ===
During this case, Sato was having many flash backs of her former crush, Jinpei Matsuda, who was killed during a bombing incident. When the bombing started to involve more familiar police officers (including Shiratori), she became very worried for Takagi. When Takagi and Conan were trapped in an elevator with a mercury lever bomb, Takagi told Sato that he and Conan would have to remain and die with the bomb to get the name of the location of a much bigger bomb. She tried to force her way through police to get to Takagi, but failed. However, the bomb was disabled by Conan at the last second. Later after apprehending the bomber, she chased and attempted to kill him, being fully taken in with the impulse of revenge. At the last moment before she would have killed him, Takagi tackled Sato and even smacked her in the face to make her regain her senses. Takagi and Sato then almost kissed, but the arrival of Inspector Megure broke the moment.

=== Whistling Killer Case (Manga: [[Volume 64|670-673]], Anime: [[The Scar that Evokes the Past|534-535]]) ===
Sato and Takagi had agreed on going out to a spa as soon as a difficult case (involving a serial killer whose cases are about to caducate) that they were working on (alongside Megure, Shiratori, and Matsumoto) was resolved. Takagi gets very fired up and decides to work harder than usual; their seniors, however, see it as a terrible signal since officers who behave like that often end up dying in the line of duty, which greatly worries Sato. This bad omen almost becomes true when Takagi ends up being shot, with only a mahjong tile he carried in his pocket saving him from death. Sato is greatly relieved when he survives, and they ''finally'' can share a kiss.

=== The Life-Threatening Broadcast of Love (Manga: [[Volume 76|804]]-[[Volume 77|808]], Anime: [[The Life-Threatening Broadcast of Love|681-683]]) ===
[[File:683-6.png|thumb|left|200px|Sato jumps from a helicopter to save Takagi.]]
Takagi is kidnapped by a mysterious man who mistakes him to be [[Wataru Date]] (a deceased police officer and Takagi's former mentor) who had made the kidnapper's daughter commit suicide. He is bandaged on a plank of wood and there is a bomb under it. Sato saves Takagi from getting killed by the bomb, and the duo kiss again.

[[File:748-1.png|thumb|200px|Embarrassed Sato.]]
Sato hesitates when thinking about that she's expecting but has lost. Naeko, Takagi and Yumi believe that her period is late... and since Takagi is now her lover as well as her partner, this means she might be pregnant. The thing Sato was actually missing was her red badge which is given to all officers in the 1st Division. The whole pregnancy situation was a huge misunderstanding.

=== Ramen So Good, It's to Die For 2 (Manga: [[Volume 88|930]], Anime: [[Ramen So Good, It's to Die For 2|828]]) ===
Sato and Takagi put on disguise to catch the culprit at a ramen shop. It's again stated that they're sexually active, as Sato tells Takagi that she plans to work out *intensely* that night to burn out calories (implying that she wants to have sex with him) and is mad when he misses the point of her remark.

== Non-canon plot overview==
==== Captured in Her Eyes ([[Captured in Her Eyes|Movie 4]]) ====
[[File:Movie4 Case3.jpg|200px|thumb|right|]]
During ''Captured in Her Eyes'', Miwako was a target of a serial killer. She thought she was safe, but when she and Ran went to the bathroom, a blackout in the hotel occurred. A gunman then came into the bathroom, and she jumped on Ran to protect her. However, she was shot several times and put into a coma. This incident caused a large deal of grief for Ran and Takagi, even going as far as to make Ran completely lose her memories. She was given by doctors a 50% chance at surviving due to one bullet stopping extremely close to her heart. Luckily, she survived.

==== [[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie]] ====
After the international criminal [[Lupin III]] announced his intention to steal a jewel called the Cherry Sapphire, [[Inspector Zenigata]] from the ICPO put together an operation to prevent the theft. Miwako eagerly volunteered to join Zenigata's team, relishing the chance to capture her hero. During the operation, she actually managed to handcuff Lupin, but lost him after he electrocuted her. Though weakened from the electrical attack, Miwako pursued him into the subway tunnels underneath the city, but was nearly killed after collapsing on the train tracks. Impressed with her tenacity, Lupin returned and saved Miwako from being hit by the train, before disappearing with the sapphire.

== Relationship analysis ==
=== Wataru Takagi ===
{{main|Wataru Takagi and Miwako Sato}}
[[Image:Episode 535 - Sato and Takagi kiss.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sato and Takagi sharing their first kiss]]
Since their first meeting, Takagi was revealed to have strong romantic feelings towards her, but it was unknown if Sato felt the same way as she was shown to be quite oblivious to his feelings for her. However as time went on, their relationship slowly grew and they soon became more closer towards each other as Takagi learned more of her past, including the death of her father. Eventually, Sato finally realized her true feelings for [[Takagi]] when she was nearly force to marry Shiratori. Their relationship gradually develops as the series continues. However their relationship became threatened when Sato revealed she still hadn't completely gotten over the death of her former love, Jinpei Matsuda. However, after finally confronting the man who killed him and after being comforted by Takagi, Sato was finally able to move on with her life and renew her relationship with Takagi. At present, Takagi and Sato are very much in love, having kissed at least thrice.
{{clearright}}
=== Jinpei Matsuda ===
Matsuda was Sato's former partner and first love.They only got to know each other for a brief period but his death affected her greatly. Before his death, he sent her a message of the next bomb location and a note that he actually liked her.She struggled to put his death behind her but finally managed to do so when she avenged matsuda by capturing the bomber.She also developed a strong fear of Ferris Wheels due to the trauma she experienced when he died.

=== Yumi Miyamoto ===
[[Image:Miwako and Yumi.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Miwako and Yumi.]]
Yumi is Miwako's best friend in the headquarter. They are seen together a lot, and Yumi always teases Miwako about her relationship with Takagi. She often tries to bring the two closer together, much to the chagrin of Sato and Takagi. They have been friends for at least 10 years.
{{clearright}}

=== Juzo Megure ===
[[File:Miwako&Juzo.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Inspector Megure with Miwako Sato.]]
Inspector Megure is like a father figure to Miwako as she said to Takagi in one of the episodes (although Takagi mistook it as a love interest at first).
{{clearright}}

=== Conan Edogawa ===
Miwako seems to admire Conan and consider him an equal (quite surprisingly), like Takagi, usually telling Conan information that is actually forbidden to be leaked to normal citizens.<ref>Episode 533</ref>
{{clearright}}

=== Ninzaburo Shiratori ===
[[File:NinzaburoShiratori & MiwakoSato.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ninzaburo and Miwako]]
Although Shiratori, initially, had a crush on Sato and attempted to marry her, she views him only as a friend. It is later revealed that the main reason Shiratori had a crush on her was because he believed her to be the "girl of destiny" who changed his life, but later it turned out that the said girl was [[Sumiko Kobayashi]], who bears an extreme physical similarity to Sato. Once this is revealed, Shiratori stops chasing after Sato's affections, and has become very friendly to her. Sato really supports Shiratori and Kobayashi relationship.

== Trivia ==
[[File:Satorx7.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sato's RX-7]]
* Sato drives a [[Cars#Miwako Sato|red series 6 Mazda (Ẽfini) RX-7]]. It used to be white, but she painted it red so it would be more visible in the fog.
* Sato has a habit of shrieking while drifting without pulling the handbrake, as she feels that shrieking helps make it easier. But she finds it embarrassing, though. This habit caused the "Mountain Witch" story to happen, as people reported the the witch would drift using a white FD and scream really loud.
* It is likely that Sato's driving style is inspired by Takumi Fujiwara, the protagonist of the manga / anime Initial D. (with one difference that Sato drives an FD, while Takumi drives a Toyota Sprinter Trueno AE86 panda).
* Sato is a fan of [[Lupin III]] and has stated that he was her first love.
* Sato dislikes any shiny and expensive jewelry. This fact was used by Yumi to trick some of Sato's admirers to buy expensive jewels for her that Yumi herself finds nice. <ref>Episode 402</ref> However, Sato currently wears a ring that Takagi had bought for her, not realizing that he intended it to be an engagement ring.<ref>Episode 487</ref>
*Sato dislikes expensive restaurants, and once denied an offer made by Inspector Shiratori to go eat at a French cuisine.<ref>Chapter 205</ref>
* A running gag in the series is how whenever she and Takagi go on a date, they are stalked by other police detectives who have crushes on her.<ref>Episode 358</ref> Previously, this 'Miwako Sato's Line of Defence' was led by Inspector Shiratori.<ref>Episode 583</ref>
* A script Error in the English Dub of [[Movie 4]]: [[Captured in Her Eyes]] referred that Sato died from the shot in the restroom (which, in fact, she does not and remained critically injured in hospital until her fate is known at the end of the film). This creates continuity error, as beyond that point, others characters in the Dubbing version continued to make reference that she died until the news of her recovery reaches the policemen at the end of the film.
* Sato is bad at drawing. <ref>Episode 205</ref>
* Sato, Takagi and Yumi are the only Police Officers to take Conan seriously, usually treating him as an equal.
* Her last name Satō (佐藤) is written with the characters for 'help' and 'wisteria'. Written with different characters, Satō (砂糖) can also mean sugar. In a flashback showing the first encountering of her and Takagi, he uses this as a pun and refers to her as 'Inspector Sugar'.
* Her first name Miwako (美和子) is written with the characters for 'beautiful', 'peace' and 'child'.
* Sato doesn't know that the whole police department all have a romantic attraction to her...or is at least trying to ignore that...
* According to Gosho in Super Digest Book 80+, Miwako is the faster driver than Yukiko.
* Miwako appeared to not know what White Day was until she learned it from Yumi.
*According to Gosho in JUSTICE PLUS Super Digest Book, she taught herself her driving techniques.
*According to RECIPE PLUS Super Digest Book she can't cook.

'''{{nihongo|Miwako Sato|佐藤美和子|Satō Miwako}}''', also known as '''Detective Simone''' in the [[Funimation]] dub, is a police assistant inspector and detective in the manga and anime franchise ''[[Detective Conan]]''.

== Background ==
[[Image:Miwako and her father.png|thumb|left|200px|Miwako and her last moment with her father.]]
Eighteen years ago, when she was still at elementary school, Miwako lost her father, [[Masayoshi Sato]], in a traffic accident as he was about to deliver a bank robber to the police - an event that marked her life. She eventually became a police officer on her own and now works alongside [[Inspector Megure]], [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], [[Kazunobu Chiba]], and especially [[Wataru Takagi]] in the Tokyo police district. Since joining the police force, her natural attractiveness has made practically every male police officer vie for her attention and scorns anyone who gets too close with to, always trying to interfere in any growing relationship.

Sato first met [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and the [[Detective Boys]] during a blackmail case against Nichiuri TV.<ref>Manga Chapter 190: The 56 Thousand Hostages</ref> In a subsequent case which dealt with a cunning murder of a banker's wife by her husband, she became impressed with Conan's intellect and deductionary ability and has since come to trust his judgements implicitly.<ref>Manga Chapter 210: An Unexpected Rival</ref> Eventually, the case of her father's death was also resolved with [[Wataru Takagi|Takagi]]'s help, which helped fanning the spark of affection she was feeling for him at the time.<ref>Manga Chapter 269: Time's Up</ref> Although Sato generally follows order from Megure, at one point she secretly asks Takagi investigate a case and not reports to the police department on their whereabouts, which almost leads to their fatality.

Sato's first love interest was [[Jinpei Matsuda]], whom she only got to know briefly due to his death in a bomb explosion. Although she denied it at first, she finally acknowledged her feelings for Takagi. Nonetheless, for a very long time, each time they were about to take their relationship to the very next step, something got in the way (mostly in the shape of Miwako's best friend, [[Yumi Miyamoto|Yumi]]), until Sato and Takagi - mostly undisturbed (thanks to the help of Conan and the Detective Boys for creating a makeshift reason for the interlopers to leave) - shared their very first kiss when Takagi was hospitalized in the course of a hard case.<ref>Manga Chapter 673: The Common Pattern</ref>Then had their second kiss (and third) when Takagi survived a bombing accident.<ref>Episode 683: The Life-Threatening Broadcast of Love(Enter The Scene)</ref>

== Personality ==
Sato is considered one of the most dangerous members of the police, being not at all afraid to get tangled with dangerous men in fights, which she almost always wins. She has a strong sense of justice, and hates criminals who take lives for an idiotic reason. She does have a softer personality, in which she is very friendly with the [[Detective Boys]], and especially [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]], whom she considers is a big help in difficult cases. When in action, however, Sato can be quite reckless and daring, which has earned her the title 'The Silver Witch' among car racers on Mount Fuyuna due to her driving style.<ref>Manga Chapter 663: The True Identity of the Witch</ref>. Sato can also get highly emotional if cases involve people close to her, like Takagi and Matsuda.

Her favorite hobbies are going to the karaoke, attending all-you-can-eat buffets, and going out to eat ramen. She dislikes expensive restaurants.

She appears to be traumatized of Ferris Wheels most likely because of Matsuda, as seen on her [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 5|date]] with Takagi in Tropical Land.

== Appearance ==
Sato is a fairly tall and slender woman of fair complexion. She has short brown hair reaching just past her nape with strands framing the sides of her face and blue eyes. Apart from hair color, she is noted to have a striking resemblance to Sumiko Kobayashi, even similar hairstyles. She is well-recognized as a beautiful woman of curvaceous and well-endow built. She is commonly seen wearing a light blue short skirt, dark blue shirt, blue jacket, black leggings, and low black heels.

== Skills ==
=== Physical Prowess ===
Greatly belying her feminine form, Sato knows to be very fierce fighter, effortlessly taking down criminals much larger than her. She has advanced prowess in jujitsu and wrestling maneuvers, often ending the confrontation in a single move. She is also quite strong, having once crushed her cellphone in her hand during a fit of anger.

=== Firearms ===
Sato is proficient in guns, being able to aim accurately even in very difficult situations.

=== Driving ===
Sato is a strong and sometimes a reckless driver. She owns a Mazda RX-7.

== Plot overview ==
=== Stadium Bomber Case (Manga: [[Volume 19|189]]-[[Volume 20|191]], Anime: [[The Indiscriminate Stadium Threatening Case|130-131]]) ===
Miwako's first appearance was in episode 130, and in manga file 190, where she is seen trying to arrest the culprit's accomplice along with other police officers, but failed.

=== Treadmill Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 21|208-210]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story|146-147]]) ===
This case is the very beginning of the long and enduring love story between Miwako Sato and her fellow police officer, [[Wataru Takagi]].

One night, Sato and her best friend [[Yumi Miyamoto]] from the traffic department have a drink together. In her drunken state, Sato unknowingly reveals to Yumi the person that she has feelings for. However, when she wakes up, she doesn't remember the exact details of what she has told her friend. The next day, Sato arrives at the Police Headquarters and meets up with detective [[Wataru Takagi|Takagi]], who is talking to the [[Detective Boys]] at the time. She asks Takagi who the children are, only to be mistaken by them that she is his girlfriend. However, both of them deny this. She also wonders if Takagi has heard anything from Yumi, without knowing that her friend has already told the police officer about what happened the previous night, saying that the person whom Sato likes is "someone from the first investigation division".

Later, the bank manager from a recent bank robbery case comes to see the police. During his phone call to his wife, everyone hears her sudden scream. Sato immediately drives Takagi, Conan and the manager to their house, only to discover the wife's stabbed body instead. The person to be in charge of this murder case is Inspector [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], a police officer who has just been promoted recently. Sato sarcastically congratulates Shiratori on his rapid promotion, and jokingly comments that he may as well consider her "a possible wedding match", without knowing that this statement has raised a major misunderstanding from Takagi, who thinks that she really has affection for the new police inspector.

With the help from Conan, the trick and the identity of the killer are uncovered, and the case goes to an end. When all is done, Shiratori invites Sato to have dinner with him at a restaurant that he knows, but she turns down the offer, saying that French cuisine isn't her favorite. She instead invites Takagi to go out and eat ramen together. Just as the misunderstanding earlier is about to be cleared and Takagi finally has the chance to be with Sato, a drunken [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] suddenly appears and suggests to them to go out for a drink with him at a bar. Sato immediately approves of the idea despite the other invitation to Takagi, thus raising another serious misconception: Detective Sato has special feelings for Inspector Megure.

=== Innocent Suspect Case (Manga: [[Volume 23|231]]-[[Volume 24|233]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 2|156-157]]) ===
In the course of chasing down Higashida, a suspect in a murder case, Sato corners him in a public bathroom and manages to cuff him to herself to end any further escape attempts. However, she soon discovers that she has accidentally cuffed them around a toilet pipe, meaning neither of them were going anywhere. When Higashida protests his innocence, and that he has to catch a plane the next day to attend his daughter's wedding, Sato relies on Takagi and the Detective Boys to find the true culprit without alerting headquarters to the embarrassing situation - headquarters, meanwhile, launches a hunt for the apparently missing Higashida, Sato and Takagi. While Takagi and the Detective Boys are able to unveil the true culprit, proving Higashida innocent, they also discover that the building that Sato is trapped in is due to be demolished by Agasa using the Tropical Rainbow device, an experimental bomb that detonates with a multicoloured explosion. Conan manages to subdue Agasa before he hits the button using his [[Power-Enhancing Kick Shoes|power shoes]], and Sato is cut free - though naturally the embarrassing situation was found out. Sato also finds herself having to explain to Takagi that she only sees Megure as a father figure - much to Takagi's relief.

=== Sato's Father Case (Manga: [[Volume 27|267-269]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 3|205-206]]) ===
It is the last day before the case of Sato's father's death - a murder/robbery - hits the statute of limitations, allowing the culprit to leave scot-free. Sato intends to solve both this case and a serial arson case currently ongoing in the city, promising Takagi a request if they are successful. In the course of investigating, Sato gives Takagi her father's handcuffs to use, being as hers had to be broken to release her during the [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 2|Innocent Suspect case]]. However, the arsonist attacks Takagi and uses the cuffs to restrain him to a set of window bars in his final target building. As midnight approaches, Sato - unaware of Takagi's predicament - sits down with the culprit of her father's murder, and once midnight has passed he reveals to her the entire story. At this point, Sato reveals to him that given that time outside Japan does not count towards the statute of limitations, and he had spent time in Italy since the crime, the time limit had been extended some. While the suspect knew this, upon returning to Japan from Italy a flight delay due to bad weather caused his arrival time to fall just after midnight the day after the scheduled time - meaning there are in fact still twenty-four hours in which he could be charged, and he had just given a full confession. He is promptly arrested.

Sato is then informed of Takagi's situation, and returns to the warehouse where the arsonist - subdued by Conan - has struck. Takagi has managed to escape by breaking the window bars off the frame - being unabl;e to bring himself to break Sato's father's handcuffs - and he collapses in Sato's arms, but ultimately survives. Once he has recuperated, he uses his request to ask Sato out on a date - which she doubles with tailing a suspect, to Takagi's annoyance.

=== Police Escort Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 30|296-298]], Anime: [[The Shinkansen Transport Case|240-241]]) ===

=== Sato's Omiai Case (Manga: [[Volume 32|328]]-[[Volume 33|330]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|253-254]]) ===
[[File:Miwako picking randomly.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sato randomly picks up a file.]]
In these episodes, Sato and Takagi's feelings for each other are explored. Sato chose randomly and incidentally landed on Shiratori for her omiai (arranged date). Meanwhile, Sato realized her feelings for Takagi. Before she and Shiratori can kiss, Conan stopped them with Takagi and [[Tomoaki Araide|Dr. Araide's]] help.

=== Parade Bomber Case (Manga: [[Volume 36|366-368]], Anime: [[Parade of Malice and Saint|301-302]]) ===
Sato and the rest of the department are undercover at the Tokyo Spirits' victory parade, having received a fax alluding to a bombing from three years ago that targeted police. She comes across the Detective Boys and Professor Agasa, and then Takagi, also undercover. However, Sato abruptly slaps him and scolds him, since as a new addition to the Beika police he did not have to be undercover. Privately, she is upset that his diguise makes him resemble [[Matsuda Jinpei|an officer]] who apparently died in the prior case. Takagi returns his disguise to his car, shortly before a bomb explodes underneath the car. Sato attempts to pull him out, suffering burns on her hands, before Miyamoto informs her that Takagi had in fact gotten away. With the help of Conan and the Detective Boys, it is determined that the allusions to the previous case and the bombs are all false flags and this is in fact a robbery targeting the postal service - the police organise a sting and the offenders are taken in.

Later, Sato suggests to Takagi that they should cancel an upcoming date as everyone who Sato cares about, including her father, an old teacher, a club senpai and (though she does not say out loud) the officer that died in the previous bombings, seems to disappear and she would prefer not to live through such pain again. Takagi struggles to reveal his feelings, and ultimately - in front of the Detective Boys, Shiratori, Miyamoto, and a significant portion of the police department - agrees that their relationship should remain professional, much to the audience's chagrin. Though Takagi tries to get her attention as she walks away, Sato merely waves.

=== The Trembling Police Headquarters: 12 Million Hostages (Manga: [[Volume 36|369]]-[[Volume 37|373]], Anime: [[The Trembling Police Headquarters: 12 Million Hostages|304]]) ===
During this case, Sato was having many flash backs of her former crush, Jinpei Matsuda, who was killed during a bombing incident. When the bombing started to involve more familiar police officers (including Shiratori), she became very worried for Takagi. When Takagi and Conan were trapped in an elevator with a mercury lever bomb, Takagi told Sato that he and Conan would have to remain and die with the bomb to get the name of the location of a much bigger bomb. She tried to force her way through police to get to Takagi, but failed. However, the bomb was disabled by Conan at the last second. Later after apprehending the bomber, she chased and attempted to kill him, being fully taken in with the impulse of revenge. At the last moment before she would have killed him, Takagi tackled Sato and even smacked her in the face to make her regain her senses. Takagi and Sato then almost kissed, but the arrival of Inspector Megure broke the moment.

=== Whistling Killer Case (Manga: [[Volume 64|670-673]], Anime: [[The Scar that Evokes the Past|534-535]]) ===
Sato and Takagi had agreed on going out to a spa as soon as a difficult case (involving a serial killer whose cases are about to caducate) that they were working on (alongside Megure, Shiratori, and Matsumoto) was resolved. Takagi gets very fired up and decides to work harder than usual; their seniors, however, see it as a terrible signal since officers who behave like that often end up dying in the line of duty, which greatly worries Sato. This bad omen almost becomes true when Takagi ends up being shot, with only a mahjong tile he carried in his pocket saving him from death. Sato is greatly relieved when he survives, and they ''finally'' can share a kiss.

=== The Life-Threatening Broadcast of Love (Manga: [[Volume 76|804]]-[[Volume 77|808]], Anime: [[The Life-Threatening Broadcast of Love|681-683]]) ===
[[File:683-6.png|thumb|left|200px|Sato jumps from a helicopter to save Takagi.]]
Takagi is kidnapped by a mysterious man who mistakes him to be [[Wataru Date]] (a deceased police officer and Takagi's former mentor) who had made the kidnapper's daughter commit suicide. He is bandaged on a plank of wood and there is a bomb under it. Sato saves Takagi from getting killed by the bomb, and the duo kiss again.

=== Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 9 (Manga: [[Volume 82|869-871]], Anime: [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 9|748-749]]) ===
[[File:748-1.png|thumb|200px|Embarrassed Sato.]]
Sato hesitates when thinking about that she's expecting but has lost. Naeko, Takagi and Yumi believe that her period is late... and since Takagi is now her lover as well as her partner, this means she might be pregnant. The thing Sato was actually missing was her red badge which is given to all officers in the 1st Division. The whole pregnancy situation was a huge misunderstanding.

=== Ramen So Good, It's to Die For 2 (Manga: [[Volume 88|930]], Anime: [[Ramen So Good, It's to Die For 2|828]]) ===
Sato and Takagi put on disguise to catch the culprit at a ramen shop. It's again stated that they're sexually active, as Sato tells Takagi that she plans to work out *intensely* that night to burn out calories (implying that she wants to have sex with him) and is mad when he misses the point of her remark.

== Non-canon plot overview==
==== Captured in Her Eyes ([[Captured in Her Eyes|Movie 4]]) ====
[[File:Movie4 Case3.jpg|200px|thumb|right|]]
During ''Captured in Her Eyes'', Miwako was a target of a serial killer. She thought she was safe, but when she and Ran went to the bathroom, a blackout in the hotel occurred. A gunman then came into the bathroom, and she jumped on Ran to protect her. However, she was shot several times and put into a coma. This incident caused a large deal of grief for Ran and Takagi, even going as far as to make Ran completely lose her memories. She was given by doctors a 50% chance at surviving due to one bullet stopping extremely close to her heart. Luckily, she survived.

==== [[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie]] ====
After the international criminal [[Lupin III]] announced his intention to steal a jewel called the Cherry Sapphire, [[Inspector Zenigata]] from the ICPO put together an operation to prevent the theft. Miwako eagerly volunteered to join Zenigata's team, relishing the chance to capture her hero. During the operation, she actually managed to handcuff Lupin, but lost him after he electrocuted her. Though weakened from the electrical attack, Miwako pursued him into the subway tunnels underneath the city, but was nearly killed after collapsing on the train tracks. Impressed with her tenacity, Lupin returned and saved Miwako from being hit by the train, before disappearing with the sapphire.

== Relationship analysis ==
=== Wataru Takagi ===
{{main|Wataru Takagi and Miwako Sato}}
[[Image:Episode 535 - Sato and Takagi kiss.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sato and Takagi sharing their first kiss]]
Since their first meeting, Takagi was revealed to have strong romantic feelings towards her, but it was unknown if Sato felt the same way as she was shown to be quite oblivious to his feelings for her. However as time went on, their relationship slowly grew and they soon became more closer towards each other as Takagi learned more of her past, including the death of her father. Eventually, Sato finally realized her true feelings for [[Takagi]] when she was nearly force to marry Shiratori. Their relationship gradually develops as the series continues. However their relationship became threatened when Sato revealed she still hadn't completely gotten over the death of her former love, Jinpei Matsuda. However, after finally confronting the man who killed him and after being comforted by Takagi, Sato was finally able to move on with her life and renew her relationship with Takagi. At present, Takagi and Sato are very much in love, having kissed at least thrice.
{{clearright}}
=== Jinpei Matsuda ===
Matsuda was Sato's former partner and first love.They only got to know each other for a brief period but his death affected her greatly. Before his death, he sent her a message of the next bomb location and a note that he actually liked her.She struggled to put his death behind her but finally managed to do so when she avenged matsuda by capturing the bomber.She also developed a strong fear of Ferris Wheels due to the trauma she experienced when he died.

=== Yumi Miyamoto ===
[[Image:Miwako and Yumi.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Miwako and Yumi.]]
Yumi is Miwako's best friend in the headquarter. They are seen together a lot, and Yumi always teases Miwako about her relationship with Takagi. She often tries to bring the two closer together, much to the chagrin of Sato and Takagi. They have been friends for at least 10 years.
{{clearright}}

=== Juzo Megure ===
[[File:Miwako&Juzo.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Inspector Megure with Miwako Sato.]]
Inspector Megure is like a father figure to Miwako as she said to Takagi in one of the episodes (although Takagi mistook it as a love interest at first).
{{clearright}}

=== Conan Edogawa ===
Miwako seems to admire Conan and consider him an equal (quite surprisingly), like Takagi, usually telling Conan information that is actually forbidden to be leaked to normal citizens.<ref>Episode 533</ref>
{{clearright}}

=== Ninzaburo Shiratori ===
[[File:NinzaburoShiratori & MiwakoSato.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Ninzaburo and Miwako]]
Although Shiratori, initially, had a crush on Sato and attempted to marry her, she views him only as a friend. It is later revealed that the main reason Shiratori had a crush on her was because he believed her to be the "girl of destiny" who changed his life, but later it turned out that the said girl was [[Sumiko Kobayashi]], who bears an extreme physical similarity to Sato. Once this is revealed, Shiratori stops chasing after Sato's affections, and has become very friendly to her. Sato really supports Shiratori and Kobayashi relationship.

== Trivia ==
[[File:Satorx7.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Sato's RX-7]]
* Sato drives a [[Cars#Miwako Sato|red series 6 Mazda (Ẽfini) RX-7]]. It used to be white, but she painted it red so it would be more visible in the fog.
* Sato has a habit of shrieking while drifting without pulling the handbrake, as she feels that shrieking helps make it easier. But she finds it embarrassing, though. This habit caused the "Mountain Witch" story to happen, as people reported the the witch would drift using a white FD and scream really loud.
* It is likely that Sato's driving style is inspired by Takumi Fujiwara, the protagonist of the manga / anime Initial D. (with one difference that Sato drives an FD, while Takumi drives a Toyota Sprinter Trueno AE86 panda).
* Sato is a fan of [[Lupin III]] and has stated that he was her first love.
* Sato dislikes any shiny and expensive jewelry. This fact was used by Yumi to trick some of Sato's admirers to buy expensive jewels for her that Yumi herself finds nice. <ref>Episode 402</ref> However, Sato currently wears a ring that Takagi had bought for her, not realizing that he intended it to be an engagement ring.<ref>Episode 487</ref>
*Sato dislikes expensive restaurants, and once denied an offer made by Inspector Shiratori to go eat at a French cuisine.<ref>Chapter 205</ref>
* A running gag in the series is how whenever she and Takagi go on a date, they are stalked by other police detectives who have crushes on her.<ref>Episode 358</ref> Previously, this 'Miwako Sato's Line of Defence' was led by Inspector Shiratori.<ref>Episode 583</ref>
* A script Error in the English Dub of [[Movie 4]]: [[Captured in Her Eyes]] referred that Sato died from the shot in the restroom (which, in fact, she does not and remained critically injured in hospital until her fate is known at the end of the film). This creates continuity error, as beyond that point, others characters in the Dubbing version continued to make reference that she died until the news of her recovery reaches the policemen at the end of the film.
* Sato is bad at drawing. <ref>Episode 205</ref>
* Sato, Takagi and Yumi are the only Police Officers to take Conan seriously, usually treating him as an equal.
* Her last name Satō (佐藤) is written with the characters for 'help' and 'wisteria'. Written with different characters, Satō (砂糖) can also mean sugar. In a flashback showing the first encountering of her and Takagi, he uses this as a pun and refers to her as 'Inspector Sugar'.
* Her first name Miwako (美和子) is written with the characters for 'beautiful', 'peace' and 'child'.
* Sato doesn't know that the whole police department all have a romantic attraction to her...or is at least trying to ignore that...
* According to Gosho in Super Digest Book 80+, Miwako is the faster driver than Yukiko.
* Miwako appeared to not know what White Day was until she learned it from Yumi.
*According to Gosho in JUSTICE PLUS Super Digest Book, she taught herself her driving techniques.
*According to RECIPE PLUS Super Digest Book she can't cook.

'''{{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-turned girlfriend of [[Shinichi Kudo]], as well as the daughter of [[Kogoro Mouri]].

== Background ==
[[File:Child Ran and Fusae.jpg|thumb|200px|First Grade Ran meets Fusae Campbell, ten years before the present storyline, and borrows her umbrella.]]
Ran 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. The two soon became close friends after and ever since.

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.

At some point Both Ran and Shinichi with Ran's parents once visited one of Yoshiro Kinoshita show and took a picture with him.<ref>File 131</ref>

At ten years old, Ran developed an interest in karate after witnessing national champion Satoru Maeda.<ref name="karate">[[Volume 8#File 072 - Night Baron|Volume 8, File 72: "The Night Baron"]]</ref> By age sixteen, she had developed into a highly skilled martial artist, captaining Teitan High School's karate club.

Around a year before the series' start, Ran joined Shinichi on a trip to visit his parents in New York (her own father being otherwise engaged by 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">[[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> 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 Shinichi 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]] 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:Scolding Ran.jpg|thumb|210px|Ran, scolding the culprits for putting Conan's life in danger.]]
Ran's greatest personality trait is that she genuinely cares for those she loves. She is also patient, kind, and nurturing. At the same time, she has a very overwhelming personality, quickly able to intimidate most people when angered. Even more, when angered enough, she can be very violent, venting her anger through launching random strikes on whatever is available. 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.

She 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.

[[File:Ran Sniper.jpg|thumb|left|210px|Ran, closing the curtains to prevent the snipers from shooting.]]
Ran is someone who values life immensely. Even if it is the life of someone threatening her own. This is proven during her trip to New York with Shinichi, despite a serial killer-disguised Vermouth pulling a gun on her, she didn't think twice about saving her when Vermouth was about to fall to her death; Another instance is when the detective agency was taken hostage by a man strapped with bombs, she close the curtains to prevent the police snipers across the building from shooting the hostage-taker.<ref>The Case of the Besieged Detective Agency</ref>

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"/> 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, so much that she completely forgets about her combat prowess, she also like a lot of girls screams when seeing a dead body.<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 very humble about her own natural attractiveness, never using it to her advantage, even when men regularly try to flirt with her. At the same time, she can even be oblivious to men's interest in 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.<ref>[[Episode 153]]</ref>Even though Ran is in love with Shinichi, she has repeatedly failed to convey her feelings (until The Crimson School Trip) because she suddenly becomes self-conscious.

[[File:Crybaby.jpg|thumb|210px|"I'm not a crybaby... so don't call me a 'crybaby' again."]]
Ran is noted as one who "cries a lot".<ref> Manga file: "Ran's Tears"</ref> Despite this, Ran is very self-sufficient and mature 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, plus often greets and provides refreshments for potential clients. In many ways, Ran has become the matriarch of her new family and has final say in their actions; she making it her duty to mother both Conan and Kogoro. She is constantly taking care of Conan's general wellbeing. With Kogoro, she keeps a shape eye on him, making sure Kogoro doesn't slack off on his job plus is on his best behaviour when meeting people, and keeping his reckless antics to a minimum. She also appreciates fine art.

Like her father, Ran can become serious about a case, if it involves something personal to her. During the Night Baron murder, upon realizing that her idol Satoru Maeda was the most likely suspect, she - after considering what Shinichi would have done in her situation - made considerable effort to prove him 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!"

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.

== Appearance ==
Ran is a light-skinned girl of average height. 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 later evolved into a stylized triangular point. She is slender in frame, yet sports an athletic and curvaceous build plus noticeably well-endowed. She has been noted to greatly resemble her mother in her youth. 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)<ref>Episode 153</ref>. Ran was even offered more than once a [[An Elevator Murder Case|modeling job]]. When Ran was surprised to receive her first 'love letter', she was told by Sonoko that the only reason she didn't get so much more is because Shinichi is always with her. During "The Scarlet School Trip", it was said that Ran was one of the top ten girls in the 'Teitan High school Popularity Contest'; though her rank was not mentioned.

== Abilities ==
=== Martial arts ===
[[File:691-16.png|thumb|250px|left|Ran beats up a gangster.]]
Arguably Ran's most notable ability is her immense martial arts prowess. Despite her age, she is among the most proficient in the series. She is a black-belt in karate (at least a 3rd-dan as she is also an instructor) as well as captain and ace of her high school team. She has won several tournaments, including 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 comparable to and acknowledged by [[Makoto Kyogoku]], a world-class champion martial artist, able to attack in perfect sync with him.<ref>[[Volume 33#File 334 - Bloody Valentine 4|Volume 33, File 334: - "Bloody Valentine 4"]]</ref> Her deceptive might and skill can effortlessly smash through stone pillars, steel shutters, and other large sturdy targets. From watching Shinichi play soccer over the years, Ran developed similar flexibility and accuracy in her kicks,<ref>[[Movie 16]]</ref> able to perform perfect split kicks. Her control can instantly shift and angle her stance, even in mid-strike, to change direction and type or or stop her attacks at any moment. While doing this in mid-air, she can perform multiple consecutive strikes from each of her limbs. She is also well-trained in Judo by her father, showing great proficiency similar to him in submissions, locks, takedowns, and throws. Repeatedly in battle, her skill has took out various and multiple skilled assailants much larger than herself even when outnumbered with great dexterity and precision, easily disarming/destroying the foes' weapons with a well-placed strike. Even more, most foes cannot counter her strikes and likewise are defeated with just a single move, which tends to send foes flying and rendered unconscious with noticeable injuries inflicted.

=== Physical prowess ===
[[Image:Ran Post.jpg|thumb|250px|Ran smashing a concrete post.]]
Ran has deceptively great raw strength for her slender form, able to easily subdue her much-larger father, hold up a Vermouth when she almost fell to her death, crush binoculars in her grip, and even managed to pry open a powerless elevator door. Her raw strength was further established on a punching machine, scoring a 400psi against much larger men's scores of only 348 who was a trained boxer, which damaged the system in the process. As a child, she could easily pick up other children her own size. She is remarkably fast, able to quickly react to and knock away falling pipes and likewise dodge a bullet up-close while on guard and likewise close the distance between her opponent before most can react. Her strikes have show similar speed, able to swat down a bee with a single kick. She is highly agile and coordinated, able to perform seamless parkour and free-running maneuvers and can nimbly climb various terrains to reach targets or evade them. She can jump noticeable high into the air and execute multiple flips. Likewise, she can jump down from three-stories high to calmly land on her feet. She can take the blunt force of a steel baseball bat unharmed and has an unusually high amount of stamina.<ref name="m9">[[Strategy Above the Depths|Movie 9: Strategy Above the Depths]]</ref>

=== Intelligence ===
[[Image:Smart Ran.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Ran knowing Azusa is Vermouth in disguise]]
Ran is quite intelligent. She solved a few cases on her own; Shinichi/Conan acknowledged she could be a skillful detective if she tried, even shown better it than several characters.<ref name="e196">[[The Invisible Weapon, Ran's First Investigation|Episode 196: The Invisible Weapon, Ran's First Investigation]]</ref> Ran also has regularly shown to have a sense of noticing when something is strange or out of place, although she doesn't always figure out on her own what it is. During the [[Volume 29#Girl Clubbing Case|case]] where a ganguro woman was killed, Ran could tell that something didn't fit in with the victim's look (the killer had switched platform boots with regular shoes). During the Macademy Awards, Ran noticed that Shinichi's father who was on TV (who was Yukiko in disguise) behaved "cute". During "The Betrayal's Stage", Ran also noticed Vermouth disguised as Azusa, despite her perfect impersonation, just from accidentally being called "Angel", a nickname only Vermouth has ever called her. Repeatedly, Ran has come to the same and correct belief that Shinichi and Conan are the same person, despite him going through various extreme lengths to fool her again. Ran also has a very good memory and attention to detail, having used both to contribute to investigations more than once. She also has extensive knowledge in history and is capable in speaking/writing English, however she needs people to speak it slowly for her to understand.

=== Other skills ===
Besides martial arts, Ran is highly skilled in various other sports. She regularly scoring strikes in bowling, excels in skiing, and is a serving ace in tennis. Ran is very skilled in running a household, including sewing and especially praised for her cooking skills. She is musically talented, noted to be a very good singer and she can play the piano well. She has astonishingly good luck and instincts when it comes to gambling, lotteries, and any game of chance; she has never been known to lose once and regularly winning grand prizes.<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 also has perfect pitch, able to recognize Shinichi's playing of the violin from a particular habit of his.

== Plot overview ==
=== Doubts about Conan's identity ===
[[File:EP482 6.jpg|thumb|200px|Ran and Conan]]
In time, Ran comes to suspect that Conan is actually Shinichi, despite what her common sense would say, but he always goes to great lengths 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.

==== Monthly Presents Case (Manga: [[Volume 3|026-029]], Anime: [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case|7]]) ====
[[File:EP7_11.png|thumb|200px|Episode 7]]
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.

==== Suspicious Uncle Case (Manga: [[Volume 14|131-134]], Anime: [[The Cornered Famous Detective! Two Big Murder Cases|96]]) ====
[[File:096-1.png|thumb|left|200px|Episode 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 as because "Conan" is a distant relative of hers, specifically "the nephew of the grandfather of the cousin of the daughter of the brother of her uncle". and that Conan possesses Shinichi's deductive ability because he admires Shinichi and learns from him. 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 (Manga: [[Volume 26|256-257]], Anime: [[The Desperate Revival|191]])====
[[File:191-1.png|thumb|200px|Episode 191]]
[[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.

==== Suspicious Cellphone Case (Manga: [[Volume 47|483]], Anime: [[Ran's Suspicions|400]]) ====
[[File:Ran suspecting Conan.jpg|left|thumb|200px|Episode 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.

==== Kazuha's Charm Case (Manga: [[Volume 66|694-695]], Anime: [[The Whereabouts of the Embarrassing Charm|574]]) ====
[[File:574-1.png|thumb|200px|Episode 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 that his charm had Shinichi's fingerprints during the "Murderer, Shinichi Kudo" case. Ran asks [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] how that's possible when it was only Conan and Heiji who touched it. Kazuha supposes that Heiji lent it to Shinichi at some point. Ran is doubtful and glances toward Conan. Later, Ran talks directly to Conan about the assault case they'd gotten involved in, and he points out that she should talk to Heiji. She responds with "I have a feeling you figured out the proof too", but thinks "Why do I think that?" Unconsciously she thinks she is talking to Shinichi.

==== 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#Eri Kisaki Abduction Case|984-986]] , Anime: [[Lawyer Kisaki's SOS|901-902]]) ====
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|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 and friends ===
==== Shinichi Kudo ====
{{main|Shinichi Kudo and Ran Mouri}}
[[Image:Shinichi and Ran.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Shinichi and Ran.]]
[[Shinichi Kudo]] and Ran Mouri have been close friends ever since pre-school.<ref>[[Memories from Sakura Class|Episode 853-854: Memories from Sakura Class]]</ref> Despite her open annoyance at his obsession with mysteries and Sherlock Holmes, she strongly admires Shinichi. She commends him for his intelligence, bravery, sense of justice, and loyalty as one of the most dependable people in her life. She even admitted to Conan that she is very attracted to Shinichi. While their regularly closeness over the years have lead to teasing from their classmates as a couple, in truth, Ran admiration for him soon developed into romantic. Ran first realized this during their trip to New York together.<ref>[[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case|Episode 286-288: Shinichi Kudo's New York Case]]</ref>

Despite this, she continued hiding these growing feelings for Shinichi, oblivious to fact that he fell in love with her ever since they first met. She would constantly deny such feelings for Shinichi whenever it was brought up, even accepting one-time dates just to stop the accusations on her. Despite this, Ran has never had any minute interest other men, regularly turning down their advances in the hope of one day being with Shinichi. Even more, she is shown to be very possessive and jealous when other women show interest in him, which has happened often do to Shinichi's looks and growing fame. Even more, during the [[Pro Soccer Player Blackmail Case]], when a girl claimed to be Shinchi's steady girlfriend, Ran was furious at this discovery, and likewise relieved when she learned it was a lie.

Since Shinichi "vanished", Ran's feelings for Shinichi have only grown, but consequently mixed with constant worry for his well-being. Conan would regularly call her on the phone, impersonating his normal voice 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. 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. Despite as Conan, Shinichi has lost nearly all of his strength and physical skills from years of training, he is still as committed as ever to protect Ran, and Shinichi hates to see her hurt in any form, especially by him. Ran's love for Shinichi has remained so strong and pure, she has come to recognize his nature completely. She can easily tell it is him just from seeing his hand. Despite being convinced that Shinichi isn't Conan, she seems to know his identity subconsciously.

[[File:Shinichi Confesses.jpg|thumb|200px|Shinichi reveals his feelings for Ran.]]
Despite their "long-distance" relationship and never admitting their feelings, Ran and Shinichi have formed a strong bond that implies their true feelings. To which, 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> They 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 she earnestly knit a sweater for him. Much time later in London, Ran's distress at Shinichi's seeming coldness to her and likewise still oblivious to her feelings for him led Shinichi to confess his feelings for her; an act that left Ran so stunned that she didn't say anything in return. Later, during their School Trip to Kyoto, Ran finally responded to Shinichi's confession with with a kiss to the cheek. Shinichi was about to kiss her on the lips, which she eagerly awaited, but he began to transform back into Conan, forcing him to leave early. Shortly afterwards, the two exchanged emails, confirming that they are boyfriend and girlfriend now, much to her giddy bliss.

==== 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. While loving them both dearly and admiring their respective work, it is only her mother that Ran openly admires and looks to for advice, whereas she openly wishes her father would act more dignified.

==== Sonoko Suzuki ====
[[Image:Ran and Sonoko.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Ran and Sonoko.]]
[[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/> She also seem to notice Ran's emotional attention to other. When Ran believed that Conan was Shinichi, Sonoko noticed that Ran was behaving lovely-dovey toward Conan.

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.

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

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

Heiji almost views Ran as a sister, as he will tease her from time to time and he'll help explain things to her during cases along with Kazuha.
He 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.

==== 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|200px|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"/> 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>

==== Ayumi Yoshida, Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya, and Genta Kojima ====
The three kids respects and treats Ran as an older sister-figure. There have been many instances when Genta and Mitsuhiko would note that Conan acts different around Ran and would often tease him for it. During the fifth movie, Countdown to Heaven, Mitsuhiko and Ayumi both asked to meet with Ran in privacy with Ayumi asking Ran to let Conan's feelings down because she is sure he likes her; while Mitsuhiko asked for advice regarding his feelings for both Ayumi and Haibara. While inside the virtual reality world in The Phantom of Baker Street, Genta offers Ran his jacket following suit of what Conan and Mitsuhiko did for Ayumi and Haibara. Ran also rescued the kids several times and vice versa during abduction/hostage situations.

=== Black Organization ===
==== Vermouth ====
[[Image:Ran saves Vermouth.jpg|thumb|200px|left|Ran saved Vermouth (disguised as a serial killer) back in New York.]]
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|200px|Ran apologizing to Subaru.]]
Ran lied to [[Subaru Okiya|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 Sera ====
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.

* ''It is possible that Ran will play a major role in the final battle with the organisation and will save Shinichi's life. ''

== 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 [[Wikipedia: Mahjong|Mahjong]].<ref name=Magic/> "Ran Mouri" is also the name of a writer of the anime ''[[Wikipedia: Lupin III: Part II|Lupin III: Part II]]'', a source of inspiration for ''Detective Conan''.<ref>[http://twitter.com/conan_dana_/status/367654320365256704/photo/1 Twitter]</ref>

'''{{nihongo|Conan Edogawa|江戸川コナン|Edogawa Konan}}''' is the alias used by [[Shinichi Kudo]] in his shrunken form. Shinichi took the appearance of his six or seven year old self after being exposed to a prototype poison called [[APTX 4869]], which he had been forced to swallow by two men in black later revealed to be members of the [[Black Organization]].<ref name="e1">[[Roller Coaster Murder Case|Episode 1: Roller Coaster Murder Case]]</ref> The poison de-aged Shinichi's entire body except for his nervous system and therefore he still has the personality, memories, and incredible deductive ability of his teenage self. Conan's goal is to hunt down the Black Organization and have them arrested for their crimes, as well as find an antidote to the APTX 4869. To do so he plans to make the washout detective [[Kogoro Mouri]] famous in hopes of attracting cases related to the Black Organization.

Conan is often treated as a separate character from Shinichi by fans, and often viewed as the main character of the series while Shinichi is viewed as a recurring character. He has become a popular figure in Japan and even appeared at numerous occasions in different anime series (i.e. mainly cameo appearances) as well as other medias.

== Background ==
''Conan Edogawa'' is [[Shinichi Kudo]]'s alter ego. He did not exist prior to the chain of events, involving members of the [[Black Organization]], that led Shinichi to transform back into a child.

[[File:APTX 4869 given to Shinichi.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Shinichi being drugged.]]
=== The Transformation ===
At the beginning of the series, Shinichi brings his friend [[Ran Mouri]] to [[Setting#Tropical_Land|Tropical Land]], a local theme park, to celebrate her victory in the Metropolitan Karate Championships. He later ends up solving a murder case there.<ref name="e1" /> As they are leaving, Shinichi witnesses a suspicious exchange between an unknown business man and [[Vodka|a man in black]] in a secluded area by the ferris wheel. While spying on the suspicious men, Shinichi does not notice [[Gin|another man in black]], who knocks him out from behind and forces him to swallow a new experimental poison known as [[APTX 4869]]. They then leave him to die. However, instead of killing Shinichi, a rare side-effect occurred. Shinichi's body shrunk back to that of his six-year-old self.<ref>[[Volume 1#File 002 - The Great Detective Turned Small|Volume 1, File 2, page 59: "The Great Detective Turned Small"]]</ref> In desperation and confusion, Shinichi heads back to his house and runs into his next door neighbor and close family friend, [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]]. After a few attempts at proving he's in fact Shinichi, he finally succeeds in convincing the Professor. The latter warns him he must keep his identity secret as the [[Black Organization]] will surely try to kill him and others associated with him should they learn the truth.<ref name="e2">[[Company President's Daughter Kidnapping Case|Episode 2: Company President's Daughter Kidnapping Case]].</ref>
{{clearleft}}
[[File:Agasa shinichi.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Shinichi as conan in his shrunken form with Hiroshi Agasa first time met and Professor Agasa will go to
Report to the police about this kid]]
=== Taking a new identity ===
Shinichi comes up with the alias Conan Edogawa using the mystery author names [[Arthur Conan Doyle|Arthur '''''Conan''''' Doyle]] and [[Edogawa Rampo|'''''Edogawa''''' Rampo]] and pretends to be a distant relative of Agasa's who then places Conan in Ran's care.<ref name="e2" /> Ran's father, [[Kogoro Mouri]], owns a Detective Agency which may provide a chance for Conan to run into a case involving the Black Organization. However, Kogoro is a terrible detective with little credibility. Using helpful gadgets that Agasa makes, Conan sets out to improve Kogoro's detective reputation by solving cases for him while also hiding the truth that Conan is really the one solving cases. By knocking Kogoro out at crime scenes with a fast-acting [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|tranquilizer]] and using a [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|voice modulator]] to relay deductions in Kogoro's voice, Conan creates 'Sleeping Kogoro'. The conceited Kogoro enjoys his newfound reputation and the money it brings in so much that he doesn't question why he is suddenly passing out at crime scenes and solving cases in his sleep.

=== Creation of the Detective Boys ===
Conan enrolls at [[Teitan Elementary School]] to further protect his identity and is befriended by classmates [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]], [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]], and [[Genta Kojima|Genta]], who create the ''[[Detective Boys]]'' not long after.<ref>[[The Coded Map of the City Case|Episode 4: The Coded Map of the City Case]]</ref> In the beginning he found the kids annoying, but he started to warm up to them and even gives them missions to accomplish.

[[Image:Conan Stuns Kogoro.jpg|thumb|200px|Conan stuns Kogoro with his wristwatch, ready to solve a case!]]

=== Solving cases ===
As Conan, Shinichi helps Ran's father solve cases by putting him to sleep and simulating Kogoro's voice using the special bowtie gadget Professor Agasa made for him. He also spends a good amount of time with his Detective Boys fellows and solves many small cases with them and sometimes in the company of Professor Agasa. In some situations, when there's only Ran, Sonoko, and himself, he will use Sonoko instead to solve the case at hand. Because of that, Sonoko eventually becomes another moderately well-known "sleeping" detective, although her reputation is only known to the local police investigation team and Sonoko's friends. In much later files, Conan has solved the case as himself then claimed afterwards that Shinichi told him what to say.

=== Encounter Black Organization ===
Soon after being shrunk, Conan sets the plan to pursue and arrest the Black Organization members. Initial attempts were in vain until Haibara appears and starts giving clues on their whereabouts. However, in some of his early attempts, Conan tends to underestimate the ability of the Organization, leading to situations where he or his close friends being harmed and almost killed. Once understood the Organization and having allies to help, among them Shuichi Akai, who had been undercover in the organization and knows their ways, his later plans are more successful to foil Black Organization's plans, although he hasn't been able to expose the Black Organization and arrest their members yet.
{{clear}}

== Personality ==
As Conan, Shinichi tries to behave like a child. He refers to Ran as "Ran-neechan" (''nee-chan'' meaning older sister, a common nickname Japanese children give to teenagers and young adults they look up to), and refers to Shinichi as "Shinichi-niichan" (''nii-chan'' meaning older brother). He also refers to Kogoro as "Oji-san" or "Occhan" (both meaning Uncle), although he also does this as Shinichi. As Shinichi, he refers to Conan as usually "Conan-kun" or the "Kid in the Glasses". Shinichi treats Conan as a separate person completely, thinking for example, "changing back into Conan".

[[File:Ran telling Conan she likes Shinichi.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Ran telling Conan she likes Shinichi.]]
[[File:Ran conan do not tell.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Ran telling Conan she likes Shinichi (Picture from the "[[Episode One: The Great Detective Turned Small|Episode one]]" version).]]
Conan remains very close to Ran, who in return is very protective of him. However, because Ran is unaware of his true identity, Conan often finds himself in awkward situations with her, such as when she confessed her feeling for Shinichi to him and when she made him bathe with her at a hot spring.

Conan's intelligence remains intact even though he has shrunken into a child. As Shinichi, his deductive ability earned him the monikers "[[Wikipedia: Heisei|Heisei]] Holmes" and "Savior of the Japanese police force". Conan maintains an extraordinarily broad knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases and escape tricky situations. Conan tries to speak in a child-like manner when dealing with adults, but he often gets caught up in the current case and begins speaking like an adult, referring to advanced topics and using reasoning much too complex for a normal child. When this happens, he often tries to pass it off as "something [he] heard on TV" or "taught by uncle Kogoro/professor Agasa/Shinichi-niichan".
Likewise, he makes no effort to hide his love for [[Sherlock Holmes]] and soccer, so if he called out for talking about either subject in too much detail, he tries to escape suspicion by saying it was something Shinichi told him about. Although as the series has progressed the adults around him have
become more used to his "being quite smart for a child", causing him to behave more like himself around them, he still tries to pass as a normal child.
[[File:Conan, Tome, and Chiba.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan whispers to [[Kazunobu Chiba]] and [[Officer Tome|Tome]].]]
The only police officers with whom Conan can speak in a professional manner are the [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]], especially [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], [[James Black]], and Inspector [[Kansuke Yamato]] of the Nagano Police, all of whom suspect that there is more to Conan than meets the eye.

Conan tends to act more like himself around the [[Detective Boys]], even to the point that they find it odd when he acts like a child around adults. He will often play games like baseball with the Detective Boys, but he is too used to soccer to perform well and will even instinctively use soccer techniques, such as kicking in games that do not call for it. Because he is unfamiliar with popular games and TV shows, and bad at video games, Genta and the others tend to think of him as dumb. This annoys Conan so much that he will secretly watch TV in the living room after Kogoro and Ran go to sleep to get more "practice" in.

While he thinks that criminals should be punished, he also seem willing to give culprits, who has attempted murder due to misunderstandings and fail, a second chance and let them off the hook. <ref>The Celebrities' Secret</ref><ref>Won't Forgive Even One Millimeter</ref><ref>Scuba Diving Murder Case</ref><ref>Poisoned Fisherman Attempted Murder Case</ref>

After he had one time failed to stop the culprit from committing suicide,<ref>[[Moonlight Sonata Murder Case|Episodes 11: Moonlight Sonata Murder Case]].</ref> he began to believe that a detective who has cornered a killer and just let him kill himself is no better than a murderer, and therefore he tries to do everything to stop it. At times when he fails to save the killer it haunts him. At first, he's callous and unempathetic: in The Bandage Man Villa murder case, when the culprit threatens to commit suicide, Shinichi calls his bluff by outright telling him to do it. However, soon after that Shinichi suffers through his own Norbury with the Moonlight Sonata Murder Case, during which a culprit commits suicide because Shinichi identified them without thinking ahead to how the culprit might react. The next two cases where a culprit plans to commit suicide has Shinichi removing the lethal tools before confronting them and placing officers around the perimeter to prevent the culprit from jumping respectively—and in each instance, Shinichi is clearly haunted by the death of the culprit in the Moonlight Sonata case, enough to snap at Hattori for offhandedly suggesting it may have been better if they let the culprit of the day actually kill themself, stating that a detective that allows that is "no better than a murderer himself." The Detective's Nocturne case caps off this development arc, with Shinichi accompanying and befriending a suicidal murderer in order to form an emotional connection and convince them not to kill themself.

However, an innate characteristic that he has, and probably had as Shinichi may be due to being a detective. Whenever he hears a scream, or sees a culprit, he will immediately and without hesitation run toward the sound or culprit instictively.

If he is with another adult, or detective, he will most likely be in the front 2 people running toward the sound.
If by himself or with some other non detective, he will still be running toward the sound.
Whether it is a victim or a culprit, he will be one of the first 2 people.

If it is to a victim, and another detective or officer is present, he may hang back a little, but he has no hesitations to checking on the victim, looking for clues, or going after culprits.

And while it may have been somewhat forced on, Shinichi/Conan stops being as attention-seeking as he was in his original body.
Subtle, but during "The 3 'K's of Osaka" story, Conan/Shinichi didn't want to investigate the case because his soccer idol was a suspect (and later confirmed to be the actual culprit). Afterwards, he stopped thinking like this, deciding that even if his friends, family, or someone who is close to either one is a suspect, he will consider that person a suspect until proven otherwise (such as Genta's dad being a possible suspect in "The Culprit is Genta's Dad" or Ran in "Kaitou Kid and the Blush Mermaid").
In regards to his attitude in dealing with mysterious and dangerous Black Organization (B.O.), Shinichi initially and arrogantly believed he could easily take them down, taking only minimum precautions in safety of himself and others. For example, when a B.O. member was suspected to be near in the "Reunion With The Black Organization" arc, Conan's way of protecting Haibara from being recognized is simply putting glasses on her; unfortunately, their was a B.O. member (Pisco) who instantly knew that Haibara was the shrunken Shiho Miyano and would have revealed her identity had he not been killed by Gin. It could've ended in more tragedy since Gin was very close to killing Haibara. This incident was a major wake-up call to the young detective that the organization isn't as easy to take down as he thought and that if he made a mistake, he or his loved ones could die. And while Shinichi/Conan still has a bit of a reckless side, he now asks for help when dealing with the B.O. and formulating plans to keep him and his allies safe.

== Appearance ==
[[File:Conan full face.png|thumb|right|200px|]]
Conan has dark brown hair which mostly hangs downwards just above his blue eyes, but there are also a few strands that stick up at the front and back of his head. Conan's usual outfit consists of a blue blazer with a single button and a pair of shorts, red trainers and white socks, even though he has taken to wearing more casual clothing as time goes on. He also wears a red bowtie and his dad's old glasses. Both these items were later [[Gadgets|specifically modified]] by Professor Agasa to include a [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|voice changer]], [[Button Speaker|microphone]], and [[Criminal Tracking Glasses|homing device]], to aid in Conan in his cases. His [[Power-Enhancing Kick Shoes|red shoes]] have also been modified to harness electric and magnetic fields to stimulate pressure points on Conan's foot, greatly enhancing his kicking power.

Additionally, much like Hattori and Shinichi, Conan is incredibly popular. Ayumi and Haibara both have crushes on him, he has been hit on by girls around his shrunken age repeatedly, and even Jodie and Vermouth have both been charmed by his charisma. One even promised to make him her husband.

=== Detective skills ===
[[File:Glasses Modification(Microphone).PNG|210px|thumb|right|
Conan eavesdrop Police investigation meeting in [[Zero the Enforcer|Conan the movie 22]] to save Kogoro mouri from being a suspect.]]
All of Shinichi's detective skills carry over to his Conan form, although Conan does not the have the reputation Shinichi had. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to remember every detail of an investigation or other topics he cares about, and may have a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eidetic_memory photographic memory] to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Conan's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony that other people miss, and using astute logic he uncovers the reasons behind those inconsistencies in order to link them to the crime. Conan has extraordinarily broad knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases; something he likely acquired from his incessant reading in his "first childhood". There are only few people like [[Heiji]], [[Hakuba]] and [[Yusaku]] who are at the same detective level as Conan, with Yusaku be the only person who is noticeably better than Conan.

As a child, Conan can attract less suspicion while investigating crime scenes, get away with searching people's personal property, and ask innocent questions without setting suspects on guard, although it comes with the drawback of not having Shinichi's authority or reputation. He is also shown able to read lips.<ref>[[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie]]</ref>

Additionally, in the [[Conan vs. Double Code Mystery|Red, White, Yellow case]], Conan was specifically referred to and asked for help by a fellow classmate.

=== Observation Sense ===
He is highly observant on almost every single thing in his life, whether at a crime scene, or his normal everyday life, whether he is Shinichi or Conan. If he notices anything amiss, he will frequently leave the Detective Boys, or whoever to investigate immediately, esp. if he thinks the organization is involved, but really his curiousity knows no bounds.

It is kind of like his brain will not rest, as long as he is awake because he frequently observes everything, and wants to investigate it.

[[Conan Cornered in the Darkness|At one point]], this is why he was kidnapped, and placed in a coffin with a fake bottom, in an old style hearse, which the kidnappers did not know was going to be sent to the scrapyard and crushed within hours of placing him in there.

He is also a real people watcher, and spends a lot of time watching people to help determine careers, emotions, what is going on with them to name a few. If need be he will get up, and investigate further.

He frequently notices momentary facial expressions that are only on a person's face for a second or two, which is all it takes for him to register the true emotions of people and various culprits. Such as a suddenly hidden smile upon finding the body of one's spouse, and the list goes on.

Some Examples are the following:

In [[Home of Beika's Grenier]], when the old man used a hand to stand up, despite the presence of 4 little children, Conan noticed instantly the look that the old woman gave her husband, since he should not have used his hands to stand up in the presence of others.

In [[The Tense Tea Party]], in [[Haido Central Hospital]], Conan was watching [[Bourbon]], and instantly noticed how he reacted after a small child was counting down, "Three... Two... One..." and shouted out, "Zero!!" Since Amuro noticed his own reaction, he had to cover it up, and say that "'Zero' was one his nicknames when he was a little child."

This was really the first clue to Conan that Amuro may not just be the Black Organization Member Bourbon, but [[Public Security Bureau|something else too]]. During The [[Scarlet showdown|Scarlet Return]] Episode 779-783, Conan began to deduce from his own observations, that Amuro was from the Japanese Secret Police, which became confirmed by the end of the saga.

Even when he was little he was practicing observing details and guessing careers of people, [[Episode 881|not always accurately]], but he was really a little boy at the time. This became much more accurate as he became older, and he retained this knowledge, when he shrunk down to Conan.

=== Being Watched or Paranoia Sense ===

However, this particular Sense is the sense to know when he is being watched or observed by others. It may be called Paranoia, but it is not Paranoid if someone is really watching or following him, which he can quickly pick up on usually.

This may stem from his involvement with the [[Black Organization]], and others.

It may also help that his parents like to watch their son in disguise, and [[Yukiko Kudo|esp. his Master Of Disguise Mother]], with his [[Yusaku Kudo|Mystery Author father's]] habit of testing his son's observations and deductions from the time when he was really a young child.

This ability is even more important due to the Black Organization wanting both [[Shiho Miyano|Sherry]] and his [[Shinichi Kudo|teenage self]] 'Dead," since it helps to protect them.

This sense comes in a lesser degree as well:

Although Conan can speak in a professional manner are the FBI, especially [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], [[James Black]], and [[Kansuke Yamato|Inspector Kansuke Yamato of the Nagano Police]], all of whom suspect that there is more to Conan than meets the eye, as well as everyone, who know his identity, it does cause problems with everyone else.
He can even speak this way to [[the Detective Boys]].

This Sense also allows him to eventually realize when he is being highly descriptive, and rambling with adult knowledge, for him to quickly cover it up with "saw it on Tv'" "Heard it from [[Kogoro Mouri|Uncle]], [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]], or [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]]," and to begin talking and acting like a kid, even though the Detective Boys do not get why he suddenly goes all child-like, which is really the only time he does.

It may also help him to know when [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] is suspicious that he is Shinichi Kudo, so he has to attempt to behave more like a child to mislead her for her own protection.

This sense also allows him to determine if it is safe to use his tranquilizer on someone for the "sleeping Detective" routine. If he is being too closely watched, he has to continue to give hints, and possibly throughout the entire deduction, if he is unable to tranquilize someone: Kogoro, [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]], or someone else, if necessary.

This sense did not seem to activate at all at [[Jodie's Memories and the Cherry Blossom Viewing Trap|the shrine]], when he was talking to Jodie, however, after a [[Bourbon|disguised Bourbon]] had a little chat with Jodie, and secretly placed a listening device in her sleeve, he wandered off, so that he can continue listening to them.

However, with that deceased pickpocketing case, he and the other pickpocket victims, were brought to the crime scene, so he still continued listening to Jodie and Conan's conversation, although he did not appear to really watch or pay any attention to Jodie, Conan, Agasa, or any of the 4 kids, but he probably had a good view of [[Haibara]], unlike every other time, [[Sweet and Cold Delivery Service|when she attempts to hide her face from him]].

If he was visually watching intently, Conan would probably have picked it up, but Bourbon's observations were done in a way, that did not place Conan on high alert, except for when Jodie kept bringing up "Shuu."

Needless to say, after the [[Kogoro in the Bar]] case, when Takagi told him some information, he was really on high alert, and this sense may not have activated due to his panic mode, which was still evident at the beginning of [[Bathroom Where Ran Collapsed As Well]] case, although he was being observed by Bourbon, who was listening around the corner, however for several hours later, he did appear to be quite paranoid, and maybe that is why it did not appear to activate, because he was already on high alert and frightened at the time.

Now, these sense is sometimes just a fleeting sense, however, something did seem to activate it, even if it was just momentarily, but it does leave to a hint that someone might be watching him.

=== Speed Reader ===
In [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]], he was shown to be able to read through hospital records at lightning fast speed.

=== Killer Radar ===
This radar is obviously not completely accurate, but at times, he only has to see a person to know that they are the killer.

In the first episode, he could sense that [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] were killers, but that did not stop him from tailing Vodka, only to be knocked out by Gin, and fed a [[Apoptoxin 4869|poison pill, which made him shrink to the body of a 7 year old]].

In [[The Romance Novel with the Unexpected Conclusion]], he knew who the killer within minutes of the body being discovered, and merely had to get the evidence and figure out the trick.

There are many other instances as well.

In [[The Mysterious Woman With Amnesia Case]], he probably would have picked up on the amnesiac woman being a killer, but she did have amnesia, although he highly suspected when he saw her hands, which are the hands of someone who works with wire. He picked up that she was a hit woman, who specialized in killing by use of a wire garrote, which she used to strangle her victims.

In one episode, someone fell from a balcony, and Conan knew this woman was the killer instantly. The police brought up the information of her husband being killed during a robbery awhile back.

After she was questioned, and was allowed to leave, Conan began acting and begging her to let him ride in her expensive looking car, and she did.They left without [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].

He even managed to have her take him to see her place.

After she left him alone, he began investigating, and around the time of his deduction, Kogoro called him, and the call ended soon afterward.

When Conan stated that he knows that she is responsible for the death of her husband, and the guy who just fell, she threatened to kill him, and he lets her know that he hit redial on the phone, and Kogoro stated, "The police are on there way."

=== Suicide Alertness ===
This sense allows him to determine if a person, and most likely the culprit is likely to commit suicide, which would probably be a result of the deduction stage of a case.
Sometimes, it may be simply obvious, with the culprit stating their suicidal intentions, but it is not usually that way, and Conan's sense was developed after a specific incidence.

In [[Moonlight Sonata Murder Case]], Conan figured out that the serial killer planned to die, like his father, and before their mind could be changed, the culprit literally threw Conan through the window, just before the building went up in flames. Since that incident, Conan is more determined to take the suicidal choice away from the culprits.

In [[Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case]], Conan had asked, [[Heiji]], "If he ever killed anyone before," stating that he feels that letting a person commit suicide when it can be stopped is the same as killing the person oneself.
While Conan was talking with Heiji, he was also replacing the gasoline with water in order to stop the culprits Murder/Suicide.

In [[The Case of the Besieged Detective Agency]], a gunman strapped with bombs came into the detective agency, shortly followed by three women. His instructions were to discover which of the 3 women murdered his sister, and made it look like a suicide. Conan called [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], who was with [[Sera Masumi|Sera]], and Sera closed Ran's phone, but kept her little phone thing placed inside the phone, so it is still open, and Conan can hear everything that is being spoken.

The gunman stated that he will blow up the agency, if Kogoro cannot name the killer, and that once the killer is named, he will only kill the killer and himself. Thankfully, after the gunman discovered Ran's phone was still open, he welcomed the assistance of another [[Shinichi Kudo|Detective Shinichi Kudo]].

After [[the Detective Boys]] managed to do the footwork, Conan was able to finish solving the case, but he first had to stop the gunman from committing a murder/suicide, so he bluffed that the sister killed herself.
After the gunman was arrested, Conan finished solving the case, out of earshot of the suicidal man, and named the killer, who is not who they thought it was.

In [[Detectives' Nocturne]], Conan quickly figured out that the woman in the agency's bathroom was really the killer of the "accused deceased guy.
After [[Bourbon|Amuro]], [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]], Ran, and Conan escorted her home to her apartment, then Conan behaved like he was desperate to use the bathroom, which really made sense, since a corpse was on the toilet seat of the apartment, until the police removed it, and it is still a crime scene.

When everyone else went to the kitchen for tea or something, Conan rushed to the bathroom, and quickly went the other direction in order to investigate the apartment. Most likely, he discovered bugs, and especially a bug in the suitcase with another corpse, which was under the bed.

When he was finished with his investigation, he left the apartment and waited for her.

After Masumi called Ran, Amuro and Kogoro realized there are bugs present, and Amuro hung up on Masumi.

Amuro has a bug detector, and while Amuro, Kogoro, and Ran went on the search to discover all of the bugs in the apartment, the woman made up an escuse, and immediately bumped into Conan, who was waiting for her.

She agreed to take him with her to a nearby convenience store, and gave him some juice, which she drugged with sleeping pills. After he appeared to fall asleep, she continued driving.

When Kogoro, Ran, and Amuro discovered the body, and noticed Conan's absense, Kogoro called the culprit/kidnapper, and she stated that Conan will be returned in the morning.

After Kogoro and Amuro did more investigating, and noticing that bank robbery, and that 2 of the suspects are the dead guy in the suitcase, and the deceased one at the agency.

Ran told Masumi and Agasa that Conan has been kidnapped, which of course sets the stage for the big rescue scene:

Masumi on her motorcycle

[[Subaru]], [[Agasa]], and [[Haibara]] in Subaru's car, with Haibara wearing the tracking glasses.

Amuro, Ran, and Kogoro in another Vehicle, with Kogoro in the back Seat.

At some point, Conan stopped acting like he was really asleep, and gave her his deduction, and even helped her to discover which of those 3 women is the third bank robber, who killed her boyfriend in the bank. However, he would not give her the answer straight away, since he told her, "I do not want to lose anyone. I mean you," since he read that her intentions were to kill the third robber, and then herself.

By bonding with her, he managed to get her to agree to let the police handle it, and to turn herself in, once he told her.
His plan was working splendidly until the third robber, with a shooting gun, entered the car, and grabbed and immobilized Conan, as well as holding tightly to his right wrist, so that he could not tranquilize her, which is where the rescuers came in.

In another episode, Conan was with [[the Detective Boys]], when they came across a man, and after he dropped his lottery tickets, they helped him to pick it up. This man was talking positively about the future, and he even had lunch with the 5 children.

After he left, Conan apparently notified and began teaching the other Detective Boys the signs that this man was about to commit suicide today, and they followed this man to a subway station.

Conan stating, "It'll hurt, you know," referring to jumping in front of the subway train.

Conan and all of the Detective Boys: [[Genta]], [[Mitsuhiko]], [[Ayumi]], ande [[Haibara]] told him their evidence that he was about to commit suicide.

Conan even managed to help him to locate his winning lottery ticket that he had lost, which was inside of the eyeglass container that his sick and hospitalized granddaughter gave him. He had not opened it since he lost that ticket. He was contemplating suicide in order to have his life insurance pay for her operation, thankfully he now has the lottery ticket, which may be able to help his granddaughter.

After all, if he did commit suicide, the insurance company would not have paid it, if they were aware it was a suicide, which thankfully these 5 kids prevented.

Thankfully, Conan began teaching the other Detective Boys some of the signs of a suicidal person, so they may be aware of them next time they find another suicidal person.

=== Bluffing and Telling Lies===
He can bluff, if needed in order to come to the correct deduction, however he is not a great Liar.

Bluffing is giving misinformation, in order to trip up the culprit. A few examples of Conan's Bluffs are the following:

In [[Holmes Freak Murder Case]], he stated the incorrect question of number 241 on that Holmes Test to prove that the culprit did not answer any of the 1,000 questions, since he knew the test grader was already deceased.

In [[The Case of the Lucky Calico|the Lucky Calico]] case, he really told 2 bluffs, although only 1 bluff was discussed:

The first one was to mistake the gender of a male calico, and stating it was a female, in order to gauge how this "supposed owner" would react, since male calico cats are worth a fortune. Conan managed to see the reaction before [[the Detective Boys]] blew it. Either way, this "supposed owner would have backed out if the calico was a female.

The second bluff was discussed when [[Azusa]] stated that she did not know that "when a group of people are together, the cat will always jump to the one in the middle." [[Amuro]] stated that Conan did a bluff, so that he can perform his own experiment with the calico and the 3 "supposed owners," before remarking that Conan is like a cat sharpening his claws." Amuro also did not state that it was to allow more time to pass, so that the [http://catnip catnip], would have no effect on [[Taii]] or [[Goro]], so that Taii's true owner can be properly identified.

In [[The Case of the Besieged Detective Agency]], a gunman strapped with bombs came into the detective agency, shortly followed by three women. His instructions were to discover which of the 3 women murdered his sister, and made it look like a suicide. Conan called [[Ran]], who was with [[Sera Masumi|Sera]], and Sera closed Ran's phone, but kept her little phone thing placed inside the phone, so it is still open, and Conan can hear everything that is being spoken.

The gunman stated that he will blow up the agency, if Kogoro cannot name the killer, and that once the killer is named, he will only kill the killer and himself. Thankfully, after the gunman discovered Ran's phone was still open, he welcomed the assistance of another [[Shinichi Kudo|Detective Shinichi Kudo]].

After [[the Detective Boys]] managed to do the footwork, Conan was able to finish solving the case, but he first had to stop the gunman from committing a murder/suicide, so he bluffed that the sister killed herself.
After the gunman was arrested, Conan finished solving the case, out of earshot of the suicidal man, and named the killer, who is not who they thought it was.

As far as his cover of Conan Edogawa, he does have a hard time keeping others ignorant of his true identity.
It does not help that he behaves more like an adult, when not actively playing with the Detective Boys, and he quickly switches to Adult Mode, if an investigation is in order, due to a crime or something else entirely.

Two major examples of his being a lousy liar:

When he had a hold of [[Kir]]'s shoe, with his bug and transmitter, at the park, she asked him if he followed her, while applying her CIA Lie Test to him.
She made him feel weird, and he did say "no," but she knew that he did follow her, and lied about it. It is a good thing that she previously turned off her own camera or wire, so the other [[Black Organization|Black Organization Operatives]] may not kill him. She then thanked him for "picking up her shoe for her," before leaving.

In [[Haido Central Hospital]], [[Amuro]] asked Conan if he remembers his friend, [[Kusuda Rikumichi]], who was a patient, but went missing.
[[The Tense Tea Party|Conan, quickly trying to end that line of questioning from Bourbon, quickly answered, "No."]]

Amuro smiled, and told him that he was amazing. He then went to question other people nearby, and returned to Conan, and stated, "Most people are not confident in their own memories to instantly remember a person by their name only. Usually they have to ask questions, before answering."
It is kind of like Amuro was aware of how amazing Conan is at so many different things, but he can't lie to save his life.
It is like Amuro decided to give the kid a tip on how to tell a convincing lie.

=== Strategist ===
He may not have always been a great strategist, but his strategies are becoming much better.

In [[Boy Genta's Misfortune]], he deduced information pertaining to the Culprit, and ... He may not have organized the stakeout of that building yet, however he definitely did organize a road block with Sato, who got in contact with Yumi in [[The Man from Chicago]], when a [[James Black|foreign man]] was kidnapped. Unfortunately, Yumi did let them through since they were in a police car, and dressed as policemen, however when they deduced that Conan came up with a scheme so that the police can surround the culprits, by making it look like they were chasing some kidnappers, who kidnapped some kids. The plan worked wonders. By the way, even James Black the kidnappee, knew who staged his rescue with that ploy, after just one encounter with the five "Detective Boys," and all Conan had to go on was "P & A."

In [[Contact with the Black Organization]], when Conan was on the phone with [[Vodka]], pretending to be the recently found '[[Suguru Itakura|dead guy]],' he successfully managed to move the meet up. He wanted to have the meet before they found out the guy was dead, and he was hoping to get fingerprints, saliva, DNA, etc.

The thing is it may have worked if [[Gin]] did not stop Vodka from touching the item. In short, Gin became aware that someone crafty, like a fox, is after them. In short, Conan forgot, who he was dealing with, the "[[Black Organization|Men in Black]]," and to be more precise, the two that [[Roller Coaster Murder Case|shrunk, and almost killed]] him before.

Conan managed to survive that encounter, but just barely due to Gin discounting something important. At any rate, Conan was stuck in that locker for several hours, and even lost some oxygen, and blacked out for awhile. Conan has since that time became much more cautious when dealing with the organization, unfortunately there is no one-hundred percent safe way to take on that organization.

In [[Episode 345|Head-To-Head]], after he received an invitation from [[Vermouth]], he asked [[Haibara]] about her, and decided to tranquilize her, and lock her in the basement, and attempted to hide the spare tracking glasses.

He mentioned to [[Agasa]], that [[Shinichi Kudo]]'s name is on the invitation and envelope, and his: Conan Edogawa's name is on the letter, in short, Vermouth knows his identity.

He e-mailed someone and got a reply and a sudden cough.
He inspected his house, and found [[Yukiko Kudo|his mother]].

He told his mother about Vermouth, and her knowing his identity. He had her do some disguises.
Yukiko disguised [[Hattori]] as first a teenage Shinichi, and then as the Invisible Man for the party.
She then disguised Conan to took like Haibara.
She then gave herself a Medusa Disguise, and accompanied Hattori on the ship with Kudo's invitation.

[[Jodie]] picked up Haibara, who was really a disguised Conan, and he told her what to say in order for Vermouth to reveal herself.

He planned on having her take him in to the Organization, but she attempted to kill Jodie, he unmasked himself, and his plan really went out the window, when Haibara escaped from the basement, and found the spare tracking glasses, and arrived at the scene, since she was tracking Conan.

In [[Clash of Red and Black]], he came up with a few strategies:
He told his plan to [[Akai]], who was heavily involved with both major SECRET strategies.

Fist, you need a "[[Eisuke Hondo|Prince]] to wake up the [[Kir|sleeping Princess]]," which means Eisuke to wake up his sister, who is continuing to fake her comatose condition.

Then Conan, Akai, Kir, and [[Camel]] are involved in the returning Kir back Undercover in the [[Black Organization]], keeping everyone else in the dark, until she is back undercover.

Then Conan came up with the plan to fake Akai's death by out guessing [[Gin]], the entire way. Only Akai and Kir, as well as Conan were in on this plan, but Conan could not be present, at this time at all, and did need to give Jodie his phone with the needed fingerprints. Everyone else was left in the dark, except for [[James Black]], who noticed the glue like substance on Akai's fingertips just prior to the meet.

In [[The Jet-Black Mystery Train]], Conan had even less time to come up with a working strategy, since he did have his guard down. Thankfully, his mother let him know Vermouth was on the train, and he saw the Picture [[Mitsuhiko]] took of [[Shiho Miyano|Sherry]], when she saved them a little earlier.

He had to quickly come up with a plan, which used an all-star cast of himself, his mother, [[Subaru]], and [[Kaito Kid|Kid disguised as Sherry]] as the finishing touches.

That strategy worked out big time, since they were able to save Haibara's life, discover [[Bourbon]]'s identity, and make Vermouth agree to quit trying to kill her.

In [[Scarlet showdown|the Scarlet episodes]], after Camel let it slip that [[Rikumichi Kusuda|Kusada]] shot himself in the head, Conan had less then a day to come up with a plan that made Bourbon think that Subaru and Akai were 2 different people, and to save Akai again.

This time, Akai was in the back of Jodie and Camel's car.

His mother, Yukiko Kudo, was disguised as her husband appearing on tv at an awards ceremony.

His father, Yusaku Kudo, was dressed as [[Subaru]].
His father was wearing a voice changing facemask, and did a bit of coughing.
Sometimes he answered, and sometimes, Conan listening in another room, with a number of cameras, had to also use Subaru's voice, when talking to Bourbon in the living room.

=== Athletic ability ===
Conan is just as skilled as Shinichi in soccer, but a lot less powerful because he only has the strength of a young child. To make up for this, Conan uses Agasa's Power-enhancing kick shoes. Conan uses signature, powerful precision kick to knock out criminals using soccer balls or whatever substitute is handy. Like Shinichi, Conan's kick is accurate over distances and he is capable of mentally reckoning the angle of impact necessary to rebound a soccer ball off a wall and strike an attacker from behind. He is also good at skiing, snowboarding, and ice-skating.

Conan also has some skill with firearms despite the recoil being much more severe for a child's body. He shoots out a bus window during a bus hijacking, and precisely grazes Ran's leg to render her useless as a hostage in the second movie.

Conan's nimbleness is especially noticeable in the non-[[canon]] movies. For example, in the sixth movie, Conan is seen to fight with various antagonists, and he even holds his own against Jack the Ripper, a notorious serial killer who bests even Ran in combat. In the fourteenth movie, Conan does a back flip on his skateboard in order to avoid being killed by the blimp's hijackers. Conan shows a proclivity for skateboarding. In the movies and anime, Conan can easily perform very complicated tricks and dodges with his skateboard at high speed.

=== Acting Ability ===
He may not have great acting ability, however he is good enough to accomplish his goals.

In [[Detectives' Nocturne]], he was given some juice, drugged with sleeping pills. He noticed that the safety seal was broken, so he pretended to drink it, and also at some time, appeared to fall asleep, spilling half of the juice on the back seat floorboard of her car, and really acted asleep for a long time.

At some point, she even laid him down in the back seat, where he remained in that pose for a long time.

When it was dark, and she stopped to get gas, and go to the restroom, she covered him with her coat, so he would not get sick.

He continued acting asleep, when she returned, although he probably went through her coat pockets when she was away.

He continued acting asleep, until he decided that he had enough evidence for his deduction, and to give it to her.

In [[Two Days with the Culprit]], after he was kidnapped by Ryousuke Oomine, when he had an opening in some kind of room, he acted like he was scared of a rat or something, and began hugging, but in reality, he was frisking him in order to determine if he is armed.

After he solved the case, he asked Ryousuke Oomine, "how are you at acting," and they went to the location of the three suspects, and put on an act, like he was about to kill Conan, in order for the culprit to reveal himself. It worked.

In [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night ]], Conan did a good job of acting like [[Haibara]] in the car with [[Jodie]], but he probably broke character in order to tell Jodie what to say to [[Vermouth]] in order to get her to reveal herself to them, but that also earned his trust in Jodie at the same time.

After he removed his Haibara mask, he was distracted, when Haibara showed up on the scene, which gave Vermouth the needed opening to use his stun gun wrist watch on him, to place him to sleep, before gently sitting him down beside the car, so he does not get hurt in the fall.

After Vermouth abducted an unconscious Conan, and drove some distance away, she e-mailed the boss, and began thinking. When she touched his shoulders, she apparently felt some wires and stuff on him, so she cut his coat, and found a number of tubes going from Conan's body into a box. She started to rip out the wires from the box, and heard, "I wouldn't if I were you." If those wires were pulled, it would send information to the machine that he is dead, and that e-mail that she just sent would be sent to his partner and the police. It is unknown just how long he was asleep, and when he woke up, but he later recalled the sound of the digits to the Boss.

In [[The Disappearance of Conan Edogawa: The Worst Two Days in History]], the TV Special, while in a public bathroom, and after Conan saw some important evidence, he realized the danger, and faked a slip on the wet floor, where he was promptly chloroformed, and abducted.

When he woke up, he pretended that he had amnesia.
He eventually revealed that he was Edogawa Conan Detective to one of the people involved, however the amnesiac child act had to continue for the duration of the case.

In [[The Woman with White Hands|The Woman with White Hands Case]], while rehearsing his lines for tomorrow's play, Conan is playing 'Ikku' in the school play.

All of the following: [[Kobayashi-sensei]], [[Rumi Wakasa|Rumi-sensei]] as well as Conan's classmates are astonished at his wonderful acting and delivery of his lines.

He told Haibara that he played that part when he was in third grade, and his parents had trained him well. With [[Yukiko Kudo|his mother being an actress]], and his [[Yusaku Kudo|father being a mystery writer]], who suggested a better phrase for him to say rather than the written line.

In short, neither of his parents would have permitted him to give anything less than a stellar performance, so they made certain his performance was perfect. This is why, he missed several rehearsals as Conan as he remembered most of his lines.

In [[A Crab and Whale Kidnapping Case]], at a beer garden at night, Conan overheard this man on the phone, and surmissed that his child had been abducted. Surprisingly Kogoro and Ran listened, and they followed this man, who they found out was a dentist.

However, the only way to find out more, and everything, is to talk to the dentist. Since there may be some onlookers, Conan decided to play the part of a patient.

He did a magnificent job of acting like a little boy who had an excruciatingly bad toothache in order to convince any onlookers that he was a patient, so that they could enter the Dentist office and talk to the Dentist. He appeared to be even louder than Kogoro on the intercom, asking for his child to be able to see the dentist, even though the dentist office is closed.

As good as he is at acting, he is not always great at it.

Most notibly, when he is petrified.

When he hears the [[Nanatsu no Ko|7 children's melody]], he is unable to even act, like it is nothing, and esp. if he hears if in regards to dialing the [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|Boss's]] [[The Raven Chaser|E-mail]] [[Dissonance of the Stradivarius Violin|address]].

At the [[Jodie's Memories and the Cherry Blossom Viewing Trap|shrine with Jodie]], he was definity unguarded, and the two did quite a bit of talking: before and after she had been bugged by a disguised [[Bourbon]] (Claiming to be [[Tohei Benzaki|a hostage, who was coincidentally pickpocketed just prior to being knocked out by Bourbon]], at the same bank with Jodie and the [[Scar Akai|scarred guy]]), until a disguised Vermouth (Claiming to be his [[Motoe Benzaki|6 month pregnant wife, who taped up Jodie]] at the bank) removed the bug.

In the [[Kogoro in the Bar|Kogoro at the Bar Case]], [[Takagi Wataru|Detective Takagi]] notified Conan, that Tohei Benzaki, claims that he was never involved in a pickpocket case, and that he is single, and Conan begins to remember that the Bank robbers separated the hostages, who came with someone, from those who came alone. Only those who came alone taped up the ones who came with others.

This placed Conan in a panicky state, and he began running from the bar, probably to the [[Agasa|professor]]'s house, since it is unlikely that he would have fled back to the Detective Agency, since [[Haibara]] might be in danger. If he did go to Agasa's house, it may also have placed [[Subaru]]/ [[Akai]] in danger too.

In [[Bathroom Where Ran Collapsed As Well|the Bathroom where Ran Collapsed As Well Case]], he was still running from the bar.

He began thinking that Bourbon and Vermouth may have made those purposeful mistakes in their story to trap him into making a mistake too, so he tried to calm down, and called Haibara, who apparently is safe, at this time. He then hung up.

Around the corner, Bourbon had been closely watching him, when he was on the phone.

Later that day, [[Ran]] and Conan were in an apartment complex lobby, while they were waiting for [[Eri Kisaki|Ran's mother]], in order to have lunch.

Conan was attempting to act normal, although he failed miserably, since he was literally looking around the entire time, since they arrived, and probably ever since he hung up from Haibara earlier.

He was so obviously frightened, that Ran asked if he is okay. He answered in the affirmative, but soon afterwards, he was literally sweating bullets.

Ran thought about taking him home, rather than eating with her Mom, since he might be coming down with something.

Soon afterwards, an already terrified Conan begins hearing the shutter of a camera, and becomes even more terrified. Soon afterwards, he saw a camera take his picture from behind a nearby chair, and [[Masumi]] came out of hiding, which really helped his fear to disappear, so that he can really go back to his normal "Not terrified for your life" state again.

She probably witnessed his fear, while working on a case for her client, but chose to help him to calm down finally.

In short, when he is terrified, he is unable to act like everything is normal.

Another way that he fails at acting is when he cracks the culprit's trick, and gets the last bit of evidence for his deduction.

If anyone is really watching Conan at these times, he may have some explaining to do.
However no one is really paying attention to him at these many times. They are either not around, due to 'less footwork' or completely ignoring him, unless they (Kogoro) wants to get on to him for being where he shouldn't, and reacts promptly to that reprimand, rather than really observing him.

He has shown both of these expressions a lot, and sometimes even both of them.
The first is when he usually figures out the trick, and the momentary reaction he has when everything clicks into place.
The second has finally been termed as a 'Prankster Smile' in the lucky calico case, by the detective boys, most noticeably Haibara and Ayumi in that order to realize that when he shows that smile, he has cracked the case and figured out everything.

Unfortunately, he is frequently unable to act bored much of the time, even as Conan, since he is a genius, who could probably teach his high school teachers things as Shinichi Kudo, and bring him back to elementary school, and he is bored to death if he can't use his intellectual brain, which does help that most of the culprits do have a trick that requires to be cracked if they are to be caught.

However, if a trick, code, or riddle is highly perplexing, Conan seems not to be able to hide his excitement, which he is not good at hiding to the observant.

=== Thirst For Intellectual Stimuli ===
In [[The Secret of the Moon, the Star, and the Sun]], Professor Agasa made a treasure hunt game for the Detecctive Boys, really wanting it to be very difficult that Shinichi would practically give up, forgetting that if it was that way, the three real first graders would be unable to crack it at all.

At any rate, Conan had already cracked the case, and found the professor's box within five minutes of entering the house, and he was focused on a much more complex code that someone else had come up with at the house.

The Detective Boys reprimanded Conan for being lazy, and not helping figuring out where the clues to the Professor's treasure hunt, so that Conan had to lead the lazy children to each clue, so it is surprising that he did not just tell them where the box is, and don't bother him while he is focused on this less boring code.

However, Agasa noticed Conan's deliriously happy expression when he was getting to solve a complicated riddle. Conan even stated, "The more I don't understand, the more excited I get."

Conan seems not to be able to hide his excitement in these cases, much like his boredom when he cannot use his brain, and [[The Final Screening Murder Case]] showed his limit is really only two hours, than he HAS to use his brain to be HAPPY.

He really only seems happy when he is able to use his brain or with Ran, and even then, there are lots of idiots in his world, not saying names though. Even though she is not one usually.

Thankfully, most of the culprits do use a trick or code to excite him, in contrast to a very simple one in [[The Secret of the High Sales]], which was solved by 3 real first grade children. He even stated at the end of that case, "His brain needs a smart culprit." Due to the simpleness of the culprit, he had a hard time with that case. That may explain why Haibara was uninvolved in that case, since she was aware 'the culprit' was too simple and unintellectual for Conan's level of complexity.

In fact, in [[Conan vs. Kaitou Kid]], he was bored at the talk of the thief, since "This is stupid. Thieves are boring.," and planned on going to bed, however as soon as they mentioned about a coded message of announcement, he was all ears. In fact. Even though he cracked the code at Beika Museum, in the daytime, he did not tell anyone else that they were far off the mark.

Instead, he snuck out at night in order to meet the Kid that night. Conan asked Agasa about tome information in his father's files, before meeting Kid, since he was fascinated to meet Kaito Kid, a "strange retro-thief, whose crazy enough to announce his moves."

Thankfully, there are some detectives and federal agents, where he can really show his intellectual stimuli, and this is done by them recognizing that he is the one really solving Kogoro's cases, and that he is a very smart child, even if they are unaware of who he really is:
[[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]]/[[Subaru Okiya]], [[James Black]], [[Miwako Sato]], [[Kansuke Yamato]], and [[Yui Uehara]], and even [[Wataru Takagi]], and the famous Shogi player, [[Shukichi Haneda]], an [[Black Organization|undercover]] [[Japanese Intelligence Agencies|Federal Agent]], [[Rei Furuya]].

It is hard to say if he can even hide his intellect and thirst for it from [[Hyoue Kuroda]], a [[Rum]] Contender, due to the fact that before their [[Kawanakajima Murder Case|first case]], Kuroda had already allowed it to be known that he was aware of Conan's deductive intelligence, by his introduction of Conan, 'The Brain behind Sleeping Kogoro' and say that Conan has a ability to crack cases by seeing what no one else does. Conan Edogawa, Detective," in front of the Nagano Policemen present. In [[Mystery of the Burning Tent]], he refers to Conan as "Sleeping Kogoro's Bag of Wisdom" to both: Ninzaburo Shiratori and Inspector Yuminaga.

As much as Conan may want to hide his intellect from Hyoue Kuroda, until he deduces Rum's identity, it may not be possible.
After all, in a case, Kuroda did tell Takagi and Megure to do whatever Conan says, and in another case, he did instruct Bourbon to answer all of Conan's questions about the case, when he realized that Conan is also investigating this case too.

=== First aid ===
Conan has repeatedly dispensed first aid to stabbed/shot/cardiac/poisoned/hurt victims before the rescuers arrive.

In [[A June Bride Murder Case]], In the manga, Conan rinses out Miss Matsumoto's mouth out with milk after he sees her collapsing, in an effort to neutralize the poison in her body. It is later stated that this bit of first aid may have been the reason to why Miss Matsumoto was discharged from the hospital sooner than anticipated. These parts are cut from the anime entirely.

In [[Scuba Diving Murder Case]], after a woman had suffered a snake bite from a water snake, Conan immediately grabbed a glass of ice tea, and gave it to those sucking out the poison, and treating her.

Although Kogoro had no knowledge of any of this, Eri told him, "Ice Tea has Tannin. The first thing to do in the case of a snake bite... is to make use of the Tannin component in tea to clean the wound and alleviate the poison." While Kogoro is flabbergasted that Conan is aware of what to do in a snake bite, Eri states, "That boy is quite sharp. Compared to people like us, sitting here with our arms folded, he's much more of an asset. More importantly, the ex-policeman here doesn't seem to know a thing about this."

In [[The Celebrities' Secret]], is the first case that does go more into detail about Conan's first aid skills, such as giving sugar sticks to a person who attempted suicide with a hypoglycemic drug, which is used to treat Diabetes. The other case that showed his first aid skills was in Scuba Diving Murder Case, when he quickly grabbed a glass of ice tea, due to the needed Tannin, in order to combat the poisonous snake bite. In the other case, he handed the tea to the rescuers, however in this case, he began administering it himself.

In all three cases, the person survived, due to his first aid knowledge and skills.

However, this is just three of the cases that showcases it, or two in the anime.

=== Stamina ===
It is hard to say about his stamina, since he was shrunk down to Conan.
It obviously is not as good, when he is in his 17 year old body, since he now has the body of a 7 year old.

Without Agasa's gadgets, His strength is also that of a 7 year old too, which includes his kicking strength as well.

However, he is a very active, and maybe hyperactive little kid, who frequently uses his feet and legs, whether running, kicking, and skateboarding around the town. So his feet and leg muscles are probably stronger than when he was first shrunk, but still..., he would be toast without the professor's Gadgets, and especcially his super kick shoes.

He probably has normal stamina for a little kid, although some of the feats, and esp. in non-cannon movies, may seem to exaggerate his stamina, but even in the scene when Ran was pushed in front of a moving train, and Conan immediately jumped down, grabbed her, and dragged her to safety, he was panting afterwards.

=== Music ===
[[File:Conan singing.JPG|thumb|right|200px|Conan sings in the Karaoke.]]
Conan cannot sing on key in the slightest so he is often accused of being [[Wikipedia:tone deaf|tone deaf]]. Despite being a hilariously awful singer, Conan has [[Wikipedia:perfect pitch|perfect pitch]] and can identify notes accurately even in difficult contexts like the sound of phone button presses forming a melody. In Episode 11: The Moonlight Sonata Murder Case, he knows that the piano is in tune and deciphers a message at the end just by listening to the notes that are played. Haibara directly described Shinichi Kudo as having perfect pitch in the last scenes of the twelfth Detective Conan movie, [[Full Score of Fear]]. He also manages to replicate and sing dial tones for a phone, showing that the reason he can't sing is because he simply doesn't have ''relative'' pitch. In File 728 (Episode 614), Conan stated he isn't very knowledgeable about music but identified the untuned piano key whereupon Haibara joked about his sharp ears despite being tone-deaf.

Also, to be like his favorite detective, Sherlock Holmes, he plays the violin. This was confirmed in movie 12 of the 'Full Score of Fear' when he played "Amazing Grace" for Ran. However, he is stumped on what Ran meant when she said, "He has a funny habit when he plays."

=== Bomb defusion ===
Conan can defuse a bomb effortlessly without external instruction. This has been demonstrated once in canon, and multiple times in movies.

In The Trembling Police Headquarters: 12 Million Hostages Episode 304, when Conan was in the area with the bomb, which only he could reach, while the Bomb squad was trying to determine the kind of bomb that Conan is with, so that they can give the little boy instructions in how to disarm the bomb.

He had already began disarming it, and only stopped, when he realized if he waited until 3 seconds before the detonation, he will receive a hint as to the location of another bomb, so he hesitated, and discovered that it was Teitan High School, with the letters E-V-I-T. He also managed to disarm it before it blew up.

=== Criminal psychology ===
Conan shows a keen understanding for criminal psychology, occasionally being able to sense if someone is the true criminal. He can also predict movement and plan of the criminals, and in some cases, he used this skill to "bluff". By deliberately giving wrong deduction, he managed to make the criminal reveal the key evidence of the case, confess, abandon suicide's attempt, or lead them to the wrong ends (if they are chasing Conan).

In non canon, it was shown that if the criminal doesn't conform to the general intellectual pattern, Conan will have trouble deducing their crime, even if it is so obvious that the Detective Boys can deduce perfectly.

[[File:Conan First met Kaito Kid.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan introduces himself to Kaito Kid when they first met. "Conan Edogawa, a detective!" in [[Episode One: The Great Detective Turned Small|Episode One]].]]

=== Reverse Psychology ===
In the Clash of Red and Black Arc, he planned along with Shuichi how to replace Kir ack undercover in the Black Organization, without telling the rest of the FBI until it was over, however he did have to outhink Gin.

He really had to outthink Gin, and implement Reverse Psychology, if not Reverse Reverse Psychology when planning Akai's Faked death at Railla Pass.

They knew that Kir would have to prove herself by killing Akai, and that Gin always kills with headshots, so he would demand that of her.

He also knew it would be at Railla Pass, and used Kusada's body, thanks to that spy shooting himself in the head and commiting suicide.

He also knew since Kusada had already touched his phone, make it look to the other FBI Members that Akai touched Conan's phone, but Akai had some substance to keep his fingerprints off of it entirely.

In short, Conan had to predict what Gin would demand and where at, along with Kir and Akai, and at the same time, making Gin think that it is all "his own idea."

The only ones allowed in on the following secrets:

Placing Kir back undercover:
Conan, who planned it
Akai
Kir
Andre Camel, who had to drive her.

The other FBI members did not find out until she was placed back undercover, otherwise, they may have given the act away.

Akai's Faked Death:
Conan, who planned it, and even arranged Akai to meet his Mom and Agasa somewhere else to help his new disguise.
Kir, who was to kill him in order to prove herself to Gin
Akai, who was to die
James Black, who noticed the glue or substance to Akai's fingertips, just prior to the fateful meeting.

No one else was let in on that secret at all, until the scarlet episodes, when Jodie and Camel finally learned about it, including Bourbon, who figured it out due to his own keen observation skills.

=== "7 Children" or "[[Nanatsu no Ko]]" Alertness ===
This can also be called the Boss's E-Mail Address Alertness as well.

After Conan's confrontation with Vermouth, when he appeared to still be unconscious from his own tranquilizer dart, he heard her press the digits on her cell phone in order to reply to "BOSS" of the Black Organization at the end of Head to Head Halloween Party episode.

He remembered the sounds of the digits being pressed when she was dialing the boss's e-mail address in order to respond to a message that he had sent her.

Conan may be tone deaf, but he does have Perfect Pitch and can recognize the tune of the Boss's e-mail address.

At the end of The Dissonance of the Stradivarius Episode 387, he found out those digits are for the song of "7 Children" or "Nanatsu no Ko," which happens to the the Boss of the Black Organization's E-mail address.

He can recognize that tune in an instant, and immediately is on the hunt for the Black Organization Member, who just e-mailed their Boss.
He cannot even pretend to act normally when he hears this tune.

Even just the first four digits place him on high alert, before he discovered the name of the tune.

Even though Haibara stated that the e-mail address is a Pandora Box, which should never be opened, or dialed.

Since he can recognize the Boss's e-mail immediately, which has shown a number of times:

After his bug and transmitter, accidentally fell on the ground, and Rena stepped on it, he immediately heard her dial the Boss's e-mail address, and found out her code name of Kir, among other stuff.

That tune also came in handy at finding out that a Black Organization Spy had infiltrated Haido Central Hospital, where Kir was hospitalized due to the e-mail being dialed.

Even in the Non-cannon movie: The Raven Chaser, after Conan found out that the Boss's E-mailed had been dialed, he immediatley chased after a disguised Vermouth, and saw her enter Gin's Porsch. Unfortunately, Irish, another disguised Black Organization Member, who was impersonating the Superintendant Kiyonaga Matsumoto, noticed Conan's behavior, and immediately began investigating Conan, and he even managed to obtain Conan's fingerprints and match them to Kudo Shinichi's fingerprints, when he held that mask and helmet in the Desperate Revival Festival, earlier.
He may not have noticed, if it was not for the Panic Mode or Near Panic Mode that this number and song instills in Conan.

=== Computer skills ===
Conan has some programming skills, for being able to create Mouri Detective Agency's website. He doesn't have the knowledge of hacking, at least he is not able to crack Black Organization's encrypted data.

=== Kaitou Kid radar ===
Conan occasionally seems to be able to sense if [[Kaitou Kid]] is present at a crime scene.<ref>Black Star</ref><ref>Luna Memoria File 964 page 10</ref> Unlike [[Shiho Miyano#"Black Organization sense"|Haibara's "Black Organization smell" sense]], Conan's Kid detector isn't very reliable.

=== Codebreaker and Codewriter ===
He is great at discovering codes, as well as deciphering them.

He frequently is able to deciphering Kid's codes, among many others.
In the paper airplane episode, Subaru and Conan, both managed to decipher the aiplanes' codes at about the same time.
In The Trembling Police Headquarters: 12 Million Hostages Episode 304, he was also able to decipher from E-V-I-T, that the next bomb was Teitan High School.

He has even been shown to be able to write codes as well.

In Sweet and Cold Delivery Service, when Conan, Haibara, Mitsuhiko, Genta, and Ayumi, were locked in a freezing delivery van, without their cell phones, and all they had on hand were some odds and ends, taxi receipt, and Tails, the cat,.

Conan managed to create a code out of the Taxi Receipt, which would look like trash to almost everyone, except the only person, who would be able to decipher it in an instant, BOURBON, who works at Cafe Poirot, and Tails makes his stop there everyday at around this time. The code basically read, COR...P..SE," and the license plate number.

He then placed the note in Tails' collar, who managed to escape. However, when Azusa was about to hand the note to Amuro, it blew away in the wind, only for Bourbon to find out the spelling from Azusa, and pieced together instantly, "Corpse." After Azusa stated that Conan knows the cat comes here everyday, he took the rest of the day off work to track the note using his Wind App, taking into account the location of building.

While Amuro was still tracking that note, the kids were getting in even worse shape, since they are freezing, and most likely none of Conan's gadgets would work.

Conan remembered the cake that Agasa ordered for a delivery at a special time, located it, and wrote a message to redirect the cake to the Kudo Residence, where Subaru is living, and redirected it, "In care of Mr Kudu," and even added a message in the customer's copy of the receipt so that Subaru would know that they are trapped in the delivery van.

Subaru sent a package, which was really a cell phone to help the kids, and ... It is a good thing that Amuro managed to track the delivery van, but he simply acted like he was passing by, and told the kids that the wind blew away their message.

After disabling the culprits, Conan was able to use that phone to call the police.

== Appellations ==
Although most people will call Conan by his name suffixed with ''-kun'', or simply ''kid'', a lot of the characters have different ways of calling him due to the special relationships they share. The following is a list of the different appellations for Conan (and the ones Conan gives in return) encountered in the series.

== Plot overview ==
=== Initial pursuit ===
After Shinichi becomes Conan, he sets out to find the men in black almost immediately. At the suggestion of Agasa, he moves in with Ran and Kogoro, hoping that cases related to them come by. Pretty soon, a case involving a woman name [[Akemi Miyano]] (using the alias Masami Hirota) appears. Akemi robs a bank for the men in black in the hopes that they will free her sister from their organization. Conan is unable to realize the case's connection to the organization until after the men in black have shot Akemi and left her for dead rather than give up such a valuable asset as her sister. In her dying moments, Akemi warns Conan of the danger of the organization.<ref>[[Volume 2#File 013 - The Missing Man|Volume 2, Files 13-16: "The Missing Man"]]</ref>

Conan runs across the men in black again on a bullet train, this time learning their codenames: [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]].

At a game convention, Conan meets a third man in black named [[Tequila]], only to have him die in an explosion meant for someone else. Conan learns about a meeting place from the murderer, but just before he reaches the bar an explosion set by the men in black destroys the place entirely, leaving Conan without any leads.

=== Introduction of Ai Haibara===
Later on, Conan meets child-size biochemist [[Ai Haibara]], the creator of [[APTX 4869]]. Ai grew up within the Black Organization as [[Shiho Miyano]] and is a former member of it along with her deceased sister, Akemi.<ref name="f178">[[Volume_18#File 178 - Code Name Sherry|Volume 18, File 178: "Code Name Sherry"]]</ref> After Akemi died, Shiho refused to keep working and took APTX 4869 to die before the Black Organization could execute her. Instead, she shrinks like Conan did and is adopted by Agasa so she and Conan can work together to find a cure and catch the men in black.

However, when she really introduced herself to him at night in front of the Kudo and Agasa's house, she did it in a way, where she showed that she can be quite evil, like the rest of the Black Organization, even telling him that Agasa, who is his lifeline to being a detective in his child's body is dead, really freaking him out. When he went to Agasa, he was alive and well, and all three spoke, but ...

After the professor case, he saw her real tears, when she was crying in his shirt, and since then their relationship has improved dramatically, and they even protect each other.

She is also helping him to be more cautious than his initial, "The Black Organization is involved. I am scared, but I will hunt them down, and try and get the antidote," without thinking of the consequences.

He is still determined to take down that organization, but he is now wiser than he was at in, whereas, she is more inclined to err on the side of caution, "Stop. Don't Go. Stay out of this," which will not take the organization down, but may keep them safer.

In regards toe the Black Organization, they both have a tendency to withhold information in order to protect the other one.
It is difficult to know just how much she knows of the Organization's leaders and such, but she feels if she tells him anything, until it comes up, he may carelessly act on it.

When Conan found out that 7 children was the Boss's e-mail address, his initial thought was to have Takagi investigate it, until she told him that "He will die. Takagi as soon as he reaches that person, and then they will find out who gave him that number, and you will die next.
The e-mail address is a Pandora's box that should never be opened.

In return, Conan protects her a lot in regards to the organization: saving her life, withholding risky information, and coming up with plans to save her life, when she has been found out, and trying to hide her from them.

=== Meeting with the Black Organization ===
In [[Reunion with the Black Organization]] Conan and Haibara crossed paths with them at an hotel party while they were trying to prevent someone from dying at the hands of the organization. While there Haibara is kidnapped by one of the members of the organization [[Pisco]]. Conan manages to save Haibara and also learn about [[Anokata]]

=== After Vermouth ===

=== The Phone Number of 'That Person' ===
After Conan solves a [[The Dissonance of the Stradivarius#Postlude|case]] of serial murders, the [[Kyosuke Haga#Friends and acquaintances|culprit]] tells Conan that the tune created by dialing the phone number for the Leader of the Black Organization is the song "[[Seven Children]]".

=== Returning Back to Shinichi ===
Throughout the series Conan has returned back to Shinichi several times, but never permanently.
==== East versus West Detective ====
First he temporary returns to normal after drinking alcohol while infected with a cold.<ref>[[Diplomat Murder Case|Episodes 48-49: Diplomat Murder Case]].</ref>
He quickly turns back into Conan after solving the case and develops an immunity to the alcohol.

==== Desperate revival ====
{{Main|Prototype antidote}}
Haibara invented an [[Prototype antidote|antidote]] prototype for the APTX 4869, and Conan first uses it in [[Volume 26]] to conceal his identity and allay Ran's suspicions that he is Shinichi. Haibara disguises as Conan and appears in front of Ran with Shinichi in order to put Ran's fears to rest.<ref>[[The Desperate Revival|Episodes 191-193: The Desperate Revival]].</ref><ref>[[Volume 26#File 256 - Concealed Truth|Volume 26, Files 256-258: "Concealed Truth"]]</ref>

==== Shiragami case ====
The antidote prototype is again taken, this time accidentally in place of cough syrup. It wears off 24 hours later, with Haibara giving him another one to protect his identity. This time it wears off in a shortened 4 hours, once again interrupting his chance to confess his feelings to Ran.<ref>[[Volume 62#File 647 - The Lost Memory|Volumes 62-63, Files 647-654: "The Lost Memory"]]</ref>

==== London Arc ====
During the Holmes' Revelation arc in London, Conan takes an antidote so he can go overseas, because "Conan Edogawa" does not exist in real life, and has no passport. Ran quickly deduces that Shinichi is in London as well. She asks some Londoners about a Japanese boy, and they give her directions, without specifying it was actually a six-year-old they saw. In a phone booth, Conan takes the pill originally meant for his return trip to Tokyo in order to conceal his identity from Ran. During this time, he manages to confess his feelings to her. Luckily for Conan, Haibara asks Yusaku and Yukiko Kudo, his parents, to go to London and give him a third pill, as she guessed he would have used his spare one for Ran.<ref>[[Holmes' Revelation|Episode 616-621]]</ref><ref>[[Volume 71#Following Holmes|Volume 71, Files 743-751]]</ref><ref>[[Volume 72#Following Holmes|Volume 72, File 752]]</ref>

==== Ran Mouri ====
[[File:Ran and Conan.jpg|thumb|200px|Ran holding Conan.]]
{{main|Shinichi Kudo and Ran Mouri}}
Although they are romantic interests as Shinichi and Ran, Conan and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] share a brother/sister kind of relationship. Ran plays a nurturing protective role and treats Conan like a child version of Shinichi. They do a lot of activities together, such as swimming, going to the movies or festivals, and more. Ran and Conan both look out for each other's well-being. Ran stands up for Conan during Kogoro's outbursts and destroys any criminals seeking to inflict harm on Conan with her karate. Conan lends an ear and advice when Ran is in an difficult situation or needs to vent, and he comforts and encourages her when she is feeling down, especially about Shinichi being away for so long. It is even likely that Ran subconsciously knows that Conan actually ''is'' Shinichi, even though she seems reluctant to follow that notion.<ref>Ran told Conan that if only he is Shinichi on Episode 308.</ref>
{{clearright}}

==== Kogoro Mouri ====
[[File:Kogoro noticing Conan in the car.jpg|thumb|200px|Kogoro noticing Conan in the car.]]
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] and Conan most often see each other as nuisances. Conan dislikes Kogoro's usually poor detective ability and case handling, slovenly personal habits, and overinflated ego. Kogoro's deduction doesn't seem to improve so Conan almost always needs to knock Kogoro out when he starts spouting off incorrect theories. Although in most cases Conan merely sees Kogoro as a drunk idiot, he often is impressed when Kogoro gets serious and actually gets the case right, so he will allow the "non-sleeping Kogoro" to take the spotlight. Kogoro views Conan as a freeloader who constantly gets underfoot and never fails to insinuate himself at cases, "interfere" with the scene, and pipe up with childish observations that consistently ruin Kogoro's deductions. Sometimes, Kogoro will also grab Conan by the jacket, leave him outside, or knock him on the head if he is too nosy when involved in a case. However, their relationship is actually intimate and Kogoro takes care of Conan just like a member of the house. At times when Conan is in danger or his life is in peril, Kogoro is seen to be visibly distressed, focused only on getting Conan back. In one episode where Conan was kidnapped, put into a car, and the car was in the process of being crushed, Kogoro was even in tears at Conan's apparent death but then rejoiced tearfully when he was shown to be unharmed.
Conan in return does everything in his power to protect Kogoro from getting into troubles with the Black Organization, saving his life multiple times whenever Kogoro unknowingly gets involved with them.
They are usually seen going to cases together (probably because Conan sneaks along with Kogoro, inserts himself into the case, or simply annoys Kogoro enough to bring him) and sometimes they'll follow Ran whenever they think she might be off to see a boy or "that detective brat" as Kogoro refers to Shinichi.
{{clearright}}

==== Yusaku and Yukiko Kudo ====
[[File:783-2.jpg|thumb|200px|Yukiko nearly calls Conan "Shinichi" in public]]
Conan's parents, [[Yusaku Kudo|Yusaku]] and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]], like to push their child towards becoming an even better detective. They enjoy giving him challenges, typically without letting Conan know who's giving them; once they disguised as Black Organization operatives trying to kill Shinichi Kudo in order to show Conan how dangerous his goals are. However after seeing that their son is determent to dive into the matter, they decide to follow his wish, and even helps him out with disguises and plans.

Yukiko loves to meddle in Conan's (and Shinichi's) love life, as she will often make allusions regarding Ran being her possible future daughter-in-law and Ai or Ayumi having feelings for Conan. He doesn't usually pay much attention to them. Once she told Conan that Ai has romantic feelings for him because she looked at him ten times in a short span of time, saying that the only time a girl would do that is if she likes the boy or the boy has something on his face. Conan simply pushes it off as Ai checking on her "lab mouse," but at night, in bed, Conan asks Ai if he has something on his face.

Yukiko helped him out once to keep his secret identity from being exposed to Ran by creating an alibi for him. Yukiko once nearly called Conan "Shinichi" in public but Conan was able to cover it by creating a distraction.
{{clearright}}

==== Hiroshi Agasa ====
[[image:Agasa and Conan investigating.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan investigates with Agasa.]]
Conan treats [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]] as a member of his own family, like an uncle. Due to the fact that they both share the secret behind Shinichi's transformation and knowledge about the Black Organization, Conan often comes to him when in trouble or seeking for help. Agasa's willingness to help whenever possible makes Shinichi's life as Conan more convenient. He was the one who created most of Conan's gadgets, including his power shoes and tracking glasses. He willingly plays Conan's case solving mouthpiece when Conan lacks someone else convenient to use. When Conan needs something, such as information regarding past cases, he usually asks Agasa to get it. Agasa often acts as a chauffeur because he is trustworthy and the only adult with a car regularly available.

Agasa often worries about Shinichi, especially when he thinks Shinichi might be getting over his head. Agasa almost always responds positively to Shinichi's requests, but doesn't like it when Shinichi hides the reasons for it, especially if it is dangerous.
{{clearright}}

==== "Shinichi Kudo" ====
[[File:EP398 2.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan and Shinichi.]]
They never meet each other for obvious reasons: Conan is Shinichi's secret identity. However, since Conan tries to act as a child, he often thinks Shinichi as a separate character (in one episode, when Ran claims to go to a date with Shinichi, Conan bids goodbye, oblivious for a while that he is actually Shinichi). Judging from his completely made up speech, Conan talks to Shinichi frequently by phone and learns a lot of skills and knowledge from him, and Conan really admires and loves Shinichi. In turn, Shinichi is willing to satiate Conan's curiosity, but at one point he gets really annoyed for Conan's inquisitiveness.

==== Heiji Hattori ====
[[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]
When they first meet, Conan and [[Heiji Hattori|Heiji]] seem bound to become lifelong rivals, especially after Kudo beats Heiji in their first case. However, after discovering Conan's real identity, Heiji starts to act like an older brother towards him, much to the annoyance of Conan. Since then, the two have become closest friends, and consult one another on cases, developments concerning the Black Organization, and even their "girlfriends". They tend to stick together on cases, although sometimes this is because Heiji forces the less enthusiastic Conan to come along. While fond of Heiji as a fellow detective he can relate to, Conan finds Heiji's antics occasionally annoying. Much to Conan's chagrin, Heiji even convinces others that Conan is his disciple. Conan especially dislikes Heiji's dangerous habit of unthinkingly calling Conan 'Kudo' when others are present.

Heiji still maintains some of his original feelings of rivalry, and gets annoyed if anyone claims Shinichi is better , and will often go to great lengths to show that the "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. Despite his teasing, Conan/Shinichi genuinely thinks Kazuha and Heiji would make a great couple.
{{clearright}}

==== Sonoko Suzuki ====
She frequently talks to him like a brat and primary school kid, and he thinks of her as annoying.

==== Masumi Sera ====
Masumi Sera is like an older sister figure to Conan. She knows that Conan is actually Shinichi Kudo. She is a mystery but is revealed to be the sister of Shuichi Akai and Shukichi Haneda. Conan takes Sera to be like a fellow detective, similar to how he treats Heiji and Saguru. Sera in return, is very protective of him and also seems to have a crush on him, calling him a "wizard"; because when they first met 10 years ago, Shinichi/Conan was able to make her brother Shuichi laugh when she couldn't.

==== Eisuke Hondou ====
Eisuke discovered that Conan is the real Sleeping Kogoro before they even first met. Conan found him suspicious due to his resemblance of Rena Mizunashi. Eisuke was quick to notice that Conan's behavior towards Ran was similar to that of a protective boyfriend and decided to monitor him. Eventually, Conan found that he is the younger brother of Rena who is a member of CIA infiltrating the organization, the relationship between the two seems to have improved somehow after Conan reveals his identity to Eisuke without hesitating refusing his offer to take Ran with him in America. At that moment, Eisuke confesses to Conan in an amicable way that he was aware from the beginning that he was sleeping Kogoro and Shinichi Kudo. He asked Conan to take care of Ran and the two leave on good terms.

==== Shukichi Haneda ====
Shukichi seems to have noticed Conan's intelligence and trusted his deductions the first time they met. Shinichi has met Shukichi in the past as a child, so it's possible that Shukichi might recognize him as Conan because of his memorization skills, and also due to Shukichi calling Conan a Wizard, the same nickname that Masumi attributed to Shinichi when they met 10 years ago.

=== Detective Boys ===
[[File:Conan and Ai.jpg|thumb|200px|Conan and Haibara investigating]]
[[File:conan scary face.png|thumb|left|200px|Conan's scary face when he's intending to know Haibara's secret song]]
==== Ai Haibara ====
{{main|Conan Edogawa and Ai Haibara}}
Both are de-aged by APTX4869 and have almost equal levels of intelligence, which makes [[Ai Haibara]] and Conan close confidants and more empathetic with each other than most other characters. They share an interesting relationship. They believe and rely on each other. She certainly has no qualms about teasing him, and is more than willing to poke a hole in his ego. While Conan initially was disgusted by Ai's ties to the Black Organization, especially with how she introduced herself, seeing her remorse and pain has improved his opinion of her. He is repeatedly protective of her and tries to give her hope when her fear of the men in black is overwhelming.

However, when she really introduced herself to him at night in front of the [[Kudo]] and [[Agasa|Agasa's]] house, she did it in a way, where she showed that she can be quite evil, like the rest of the [[Black Organization]], even telling him that Agasa, who is his lifeline to being a detective in his child's body is dead, really freaking him out. When he went to Agasa, he was alive and well, and all three spoke, but ...

After the professor case, he saw her real tears, when she was crying in his shirt, and since then their relationship has improved dramatically, and they even protect each other.

She is also helping him to be more cautious than his initial, "The Black Organization is involved. I am scared, but I will hunt them down, and try and get the antidote," without thinking of the consequences.

He is still determined to take down that organization, but he is now wiser than he was at in, whereas, she is more inclined to err on the side of caution, "Stop. Don't Go. Stay out of this," which will not take the organization down, but may keep them safer.

In regards toe the Black Organization, they both have a tendency to withhold information in order to protect the other one.
It is difficult to know just how much she knows of the Organization's leaders and such, but she feels if she tells him anything, until it comes up, he may carelessly act on it.

When Conan found out that [[Nanatsu no Ko|7 children]] was the [[Boss]]'s e-mail address, his initial thought was to have [[Takagi]] investigate it, until she told him that "He will die. Takagi as soon as he reaches that person, and then they will find out who gave him that number, and you will die next.
The e-mail address is a Pandora's box that should never be opened.

In return, Conan protects her a lot in regards to the organization: saving her life, withholding risky information, and coming up with plans to save her life, when she has been found out, and trying to hide her from them.

==== Ayumi Yoshida ====
[[File:759-3.png|thumb|200px|Sonoko is teasing Conan about Ayumi]]
{{main|Conan Edogawa and Ayumi Yoshida}}
Conan grows to respect the little girl in his class for her sharp wit and observational skills, along with the other members of the [[Detective Boys]]. [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]] in turn clearly seems to like Conan and isn't aware that the other two Detective Boys are jealous of him because of this. Sonoko is also thinking the same after Sera teased Conan about the girl he likes.

==== Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya and Genta Kojima ====
[[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]] sees Conan as a role model, someone he looks up to. [[Genta Kojima|Genta]], and more so Mitsuhiko, are often impressed by Conan's vast knowledge and incredible deduction skills. However, they both become quite jealous of Conan whenever Ayumi shows gestures of affection towards him (usually a small kiss on the cheek). While Conan initially only tolerated their presence, he has grown fond of them despite their relative immaturity.
In a case, where Genta's father was a suspect, Conan decided to solve the case without telling the other, because he didn't want Genta to worry about his father being a suspect for murder.

=== Law enforcement ===
==== Police ====
[[File:Megure and Conan Relationship.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Megure waffles between treating Conan like a child and a detective]]
With the exception of a few inspectors, most listen to the little clues that Conan points out. After a while, Conan gets the attention of the whole Tokyo police department for noticing things even pros miss. [[Wataru Takagi]] in particular has taken to trusting Conan completely and doing whatever Conan asks him to without hesitation. Even [[Sato]] also treats him more like a detective.

In fact, even when Takagi is hesitant to do what Conan asks of him, as soon as Sato hears Conan's name, she immediately will take action or give him information sometimes.

After [[Hyoue Kuroda]] became the superintendent of the Tokyo Prefecture, he has told Takagi and [[Megure]] to do what Conan asks of them in the [[The Actress Blogger's Locked Room Case|Actress Blogger Case]].

He even periodically referrs to Conan as "Sleeping Kogoro's Bag of Wisdom" in front of the other police officers, such as: Nagano Police Prefecture Officers, [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] and Inspector [[Yuminaga]], as well as Bourbon, who he instructed to answer all of Conan's questions, when he realized that Conan was also investigating the case of [[The Target is the Metropolitan Police Traffic Department]].

==== Wataru Takagi ====
Wataru Takagi is the only police officer who has come the closest to finding out about [[Conan]]'s identity.

In [[Episode 258|The Man From Chicago]], When Conan is telling the police officers present about the Panda colors of the Police Cars, and that the younger generation may not know this information about their black and white cars, Takagi asks himself, "What generation is this kid from?"

In episode 304 ,while they waited for the elevator bomb's clock to run down to give the final clue to stop the greater crime. Takagi asked Conan about his real identity to which Conan answered that he would in the afterlife.

He also is aware of Conan's sharp intelligence and takes him seriously so as to take him for questioning the suspects. He trusts Conan so much that he would take him seriously.

Takagi has also come to acknowledge Conan's sharp mind and intellect, taking Conan's observations seriously and even allowing him to accompany him to question suspects, most notably during the New Scar and the Whistling Man Case where he has the rest of the Detective Boys remain in the car.

Conan also fully supports Takagi's relationship with Sato, at one point orchestrated a plan to foil [[Shiratori]]'s attempt of an arranged marriage with [[Sato]]. When asked for reasons, he didn't answer, but quietly relate the experience with Ran's relationship.

==== Miwako Sato ====
[[File:EP424 5.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Miwako and Conan during a case Investigation]]

She had developed deep trust of Conan and his intelligence from her real first time investigating with him, and seeing him in action in the case of [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story]].

Even when Takagi is hesitant to do as Conan says, unquestioningly, she will immediately and unhesitantly do as he says, almost all of the time, since she first met him.

==== Kansuke Yamato ====
Kansuke is one of the few police officers, who Conan can actually talk like an adult in front of.

In [[A Dangerous Party of Two]], he even told [[Yui Uehara|Yui]] Uehara that he suspects Conan of being "the one leading everything," in regards to [[Kogoro|Kogoro's]] cases, and that is after only after they met up in one case so far.

In fact, in that car ride, they were giving [[Agasa]] and [[Haibara]] a lift back to Tokyo, but he really kept taking in a Nagano dialect, using phrases that terrified Haibara, such as "Half-Kill" and "Over-Kill, which dealt with a kind of Mochi, and not what Agasa and Haibara were thinking of."

The reason why he and Yui were heading to Tokyo was to enlist Kogoro's help with the Red Wall Case, which Yui told Conan that it was really his help they were wanting.

After hearing the discription of [[Rum|RUM]], he is concerned, he is even more aware of his one-eyed state, which is is the common description in all of Rum's descriptions.

In an episode, when one of the girls referred to Yamato of the Nagano, he though of the Rum Description, and how it applies to him, but quickly dismissed it.

The very next time that he saw Kansuke, he again was inspecting him, while thinking of Rum's Descriptions, however that really did not last any longer, esp. after Conan say Karoda, His older, bigger, scarier, one-eyed, Nagano boss, who happens to like tea. Even Kansuke says, "[[Kuroda Hyoe|Kuroda]] looks like the boss of some organization."

==== Hyoue Kuroda ====
[[Kuroda]] is aware how good Conan is as a detective, calling him " Sleeping Kogoro's bag of wisdom", he also trusts his deductions and have already ordered the Tokyo police to follow Conan's Instructions.

On the other hand, Conan is suspicious of Kuroda because he almost matches [[Rum]]'s description, he also became shocked that Kuroda became the Superintendent of Tokyo Police in [[Matsumoto]]'s place.

In [[Kawanakajima Murder Case]], which was his first appearance, he already knew that Conan was 'The Brain behind Sleeping Kogoro,' and stated an entire dialogue stating his knowledge of Edogawa Conan in front of the Nagano Police Officers present, in his first speech to Conan.

In [[Mystery of the Burning Tent|Mystery of the Burning Tent ]], He refers to Conan as "Sleeping Kogoro's Bag of Wisdom" to both: [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] and [[Inspector Yuminaga]].

In [[The Target is the Metropolitan Police Traffic Department]], he also instructed [[Bourbon]] to answer all of Conan's questions, when he realized that Conan was also investigating the case as well.

=== FBI ===
The FBI contains most of the few people that Conan acts normally around despite them not knowing his identity. Conan seems to place trust in the FBI, and occasionally helps in their operations.

==== Jodie Starling ====
[[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] nicknamed Conan "Cool Kid" and Conan (despite being wary when he first met her) now places complete trust in Jodie. Jodie has also called Conan to share what would normally be classified information, notifying him of a new Black Organization member, Bourbon.

==== Shuichi Akai/Subaru Okiya ====
[[File:The Scarlet Return-Shuichi and Conan.jpg|right|thumb|200px|Shuichi and Conan ([[The Scarlet Return|Ep. 782]])]]
[[Shuichi Akai|Shuichi]] has been shown to respect Conan's detective skills. Together they hatched a plan to send Hidemi Hondou back into the organization and fake Akai's death. He has discovered that Conan and Shinichi are one and the same by spying on him in a [[Volume 77#File 814 - Conan-kun, Right?|recent plot line]]. Conan once says to Shuichi, "I'm glad you're an ally."

=== Black Organization ===
==== Gin and Vodka ====
Even though [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] do not yet know who's interfering with their operations, Gin has been shown to be curious who "that guy" is, referring to Conan. In the movie [[The Raven Chaser]], Gin tries to catch a glimpse of Conan's face from a helicopter, but fails when Conan successfully downs the helicopter. Conan seems to have a very bitter hatred towards them, and this only increases as more people are targeted by the Black Organization.

In [[Reunion with the Black Organization|Reunion of the Black Organization]], Gin had to shoot himself in the arm in order to stay awake, after he was shot with Conan's tranquilizer dart.
He also found Conan's bug and transmitter in his car, however due to a strand of [[Haibara Ai|Haibara's]] hair, he is convinced it was [[Shiho Miyano|Sherry]], who planted them.

In [[Contact with the Black Organization]], Gin told Vodka "You have to be always on guard. It seems there is Someone investigating about us, a Detective clever as a Fox," without being aware that it happens to apparently be a 7 year old little child.

In [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out ]], he found Conan's bug and transmitter on [[Kir|Kir's]] shoe, and immediately planned to exterminate [[Kogoro Mouri]], who he was convinced left the bug. When Conan kicked a soccer ball into the Detective Agency window, Gin decided to add another victim, the little kid. Thankfully, [[Akai]] made him think the bug and transmitter were planted by the FBI, which saved them both.

==== Vermouth ====
[[Vermouth]] seems to have great personal interest in Conan, referring to him as the Black Organization's 'Silver Bullet' and her "Cool Guy."

She also protects Conan, probably because when she was disguising as a serial killer in New York she was saved by Conan (Shinichi at the time) and Ran.

When the Organization plans on killing [[Kogoro]], and later Conan, she strongly objects to a degree where Gin suspects whether Kogoro is related to Vermouth.

Because of this, Conan does not react strongly when she is mentioned, as opposed to [[Haibara]]. He also seems to consider her less of a threat than the other members because he is able to bargain with her about Haibara and knows Vermouth is keeping his secret for personal reasons.

In [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|Head-to Head]], After Conan removed his Haibara mask, he was distracted, when Haibara showed up on the scene, which gave Vermouth the needed opening to use his stun gun wrist watch on him, to place him to sleep, before gently sitting him down beside the car, so he does not get hurt in the fall.

She also destroyed the box that he was connected to by many wires, so as not to possibly accidentally kill or hurt him, which pulling out the wires would have, according to Conan.

After she used sleeping gas, in order to knock him back out, so that she can escape, and not lead the Black Organization members to him.

She even covered the sleeping boy up with her coat, so that he would not get sick, since she had literally cut his shirt wide open, in order to see the wires and connected box, which may have made him sick, if he is not found right away, since it is pretty cold, and colds are spreading at this time.

She shot herself in the leg, and had to hobble some distance away from the car, so that he would remain out of sight, and no where around her, when Gin came to pick her up.

In [[the Raven Chaser]], she even provided Conan with the name of [[Irish]], and gave him a little bit of information of why the Organization is interested in this serial murder case.

In [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|Black Impact]], when she was speaking on the cell phone to [[Gin]], she mentioned hearing noise, and then she thought that Conan may have had something to do with the noise coming from Gin's car, and when Gin asked about what noise, she quickly "Never mind. It is nothing," in order to protect Conan.

==== Bourbon ====
[[Rei Furuya|Tooru Amuro]] (codenamed Bourbon) has attached himself to the [[Mouri Detective Agency]] as [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]]'s "apprentice". Conan initially treats him in a somewhat friendly manner, though he privately thinks "another annoying person's showed up" when he learns Amuro will be joining Kogoro on cases.

After learning of [[Episode 704|Amuro's membership in the Black Organization]], though, Conan has been relatively nervous about him being near [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].

This was made even worse in [[Conan in a Locked Room|Bourbon Figures it Out]], when Bourbon caught him attempting to tranquilize Kogoro, but due to Bourbon's attentiveness, he was unable to, and had to give hints to Kogoro instead, but ... Although Amuro may not have seen the trick, he became convinced that Conan was the puppeteer behind Sleeping Kogoro, and began investigating Conan, which only made Conan more nervous of him.

Conan's become more cautious and is somewhat confused by Amuro's helpful behavior, though he attempts to pretend nothing has changed unsuccessfully.

It does not help that at this period of time, Bourbon also began investigating the disappearance of Black Organization Spy [[Rikumichi Kusuda]], who went missing after becoming a patient at the [[Haido Central Hospital]], which may have been due to a disquised Bourbon placing a bug on Jodie in [[Jodie's Memories and the Cherry Blossom Viewing Trap]], when [[Jodie Starling|she]] is conversing with Conan, and they mentioned how Conan helped the FBI discover the identity of the Black Organization Spy, and he was close enough that he may have also picked up Conan revealing his identity of Bourbon to Jodie, and asking her to have the FBI investigate him, just prior to the bugging.

https://imgbox.com/porpWIfh

In the above picture at the shrine, when Conan was using [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]] for his deduction, Conan was standing behind Agasa. A disguised Bourbon was standing in front of the crowd, although he may have repositioned himself slightly to see Conan speaking behind a wide awake 'Lip syncing" Agasa.

He told [[Vermouth]] that Conan is a terrifying man.

In [[Kogoro in the Bar]] and [[Bathroom Where Ran Collapsed As Well]], Conan discovered that it must have been a disguised Bourbon and Vermouth, who was at the shrine along with him and Jodie, and he was literally in a panic mode for a bit.

His bond with Amuro later seemed to improve when he learns that Amuro is actually an undercover operative from Japanese Secret Police when the two exchange smiles in Café Poirot.<ref>[[Volume 85#File 897 - Scarlet Truth|Volumes 85, File 897: "Scarlet Truth"]]</ref>

By [[The Heartfelt Strap]], Conan trust Amuro enough that he actually used his Voice Changing Bow Tie in loudspeaker mode, in front of him at a beach.

As of [[The Unsolved Cocktail Case]], when Amuro broke into the Kudu home, so that he can find out information about [[Kudo Shinichi]], as ordered by [[Rum]], and had the altercation with an [[Akai Shuichi|unmasked Akai]], and both of [[Yusaku Kudo|Shinichi's]] [[Yukiko Kudo|parents]] turned on the light, so that the four of them can have a meeting. Currently, it is unknown what was discussed in that meeting, other than Conan planned it.

It seemed to become strained again in the movie: [[Zero the Enforcer]], however that is due to Amuro had his subordinate, [[Yuya Kazami]] of the [[Public Security Bureau|Japanese Secret Police- Public Security Bureau]], plant phony incriminating evidence against Kogoro Mouri for a bombing incident.

Conan even placed a bug on Kazami, and that bug was forcefully removed in front of him by Amuro.
It really appeared that Amuro was being a real thorn to Conan in that movie, although that was not Amuro's real intention at all.

That explosion could have been classified as an accident, which would have been impossible for the Public Security Bureau to investigate, so Amuro decided to give them a suspect. By involving Kogoro, he knew that Conan would begin investigating the explosion, which even he, himself would have a hard time investigating it himself, since he is a Black Organization Implant from the Japanese Secret Police Division-Public Security Bureau.

While Kogoro was still having legal problems, Amuro had Kazami get in contact with one of their lawyer collaborators for her to defend Kogoro, and get him off, not knowing that she hates the Public Security Bureau with a passion, and chose to betray them. In short, if the real culprit of the bombing was not found, Kogoro was not going to be getting off at all.

After a lot more appliances are going haywire, Conan came up with the fact that it is a IOT Terrorist Attack, and he even discovered the Culprit. Around this time, the Public Security Bureau allowed evidence to reach their prosecuter, that Mouri's computer may have been hacked, and he was released. (Considering the prosecuter knew it was planted in the first place, but they needed a suspect, however they also wanted to protect their suspect, which is why he was removed from the police station, and they chose to prosecute him almost as soon as he was arrested, so that they could move him to probably a more secure location.) Since they now know it is a terrorist attack, they no longer needed a phony suspect, so he was released from custody.

After Conan began his trek to meet up with the culprit, Amuro began following him, and they had a short talk, before Conan told him that he was on his way to meet the suspect.

Conan began skateboarding, followed by Amuro in his car. However, there was another IOT Terrorist attack, which affected cars and vehicles, which Amuro was caught up in. After his car did a stunt and stopped, he told Conan to continue on ahead.

However, in that movie, they both were each other's collaborators or cooperators at different times.
Amuro was Conan's when it came stopping a space shuttle thing heading back to the planet from crashing into where the Tokyo Metropolitan Headquarters, and later, where everyone was really being evacuated to.

At the end of the movie, he explained the reason that they framed Kogoro, and everything else, but the framing was so that Conan can do what he was unable to do, which is to investigate. This way, he was able to use Conan as a Collaborator, and to rely on his strength.

Although Conan stated, "You overestimate me, " it sound like their relationship is back on a positive note, before they headed opposite ways.

=== Others ===
==== Kaitou Kid ====
{{Main|Shinichi Kudo and Kaito Kuroba}}
Before being shrunk, Shinichi encountered [[Kaitou Kid]] once during the Clock Tower heist, though they did not meet face-to-face. In their next encounter, however, after Shinichi has become Conan, Kid disguises himself as Ran in order to steal the Suzuki family's Black Star pearl. When Conan corners him on the Suzuki cruise ship, Kid implies that he stole all of Ran's clothes to impersonate her, and left her naked on the deck. While this ends up being a bluff, Conan displays a much more intense desire to capture Kid in subsequent encounters. Conan stops Kid from escaping with the jewel often enough that Conan has gained reputation with the press as Kid's "natural enemy". In several instances Conan appears to be able to 'sense' Kid's presence, and seems excited by the chance to catch Kid again; appropriately, Kid seems to find Conan dangerous enough to warrant specific measures to keep him distracted.

[[File:704 20.png|thumb|200px|Kaitou Kid disguised as [[Shiho]] as requested from Conan]]

Conan does not buy in to Kid's reputation as a mysterious, uncatchable phantom, saying once "He's only a thief that uses magic",<ref>Anime Episode 515: Kaitou Kid's Teleportation Magic</ref> and encouraging police officers that Kid is only a man and he can be arrested. However, if necessary, the two can put their rivalry aside for a little while and work together.<ref>[[Kaitou Kid and the Four Masterpieces]]</ref> Conan has something of a gentleman's agreement with Kaitou Kid, in that he doesn't try to find or catch the thief outside of heists. In several instances, when Kid does Conan a favor, such as saving Genta's life<ref>[[Big Adventure in the Eccentric Mansion]]</ref>, Conan reciprocates by halting his investigation just shy of capturing Kid, thereby allowing him to escape mostly unhindered. This exchange of favors can sometimes become a bit unbalanced; in exchange for not giving Kid away on a train Conan has Kid face down the [[Black Organization]] in disguise, and because Kid narrowly escapes an explosion with his life, he says that Conan now owes ''him'' one.<ref>Manga [[Volume 78]], File 7 (824): "Mystery Train (Final Destination)"</ref>

In the non-[[canon]] movies, it is implied that Kid knows Conan's identity; he even helps Conan maintain his cover by disguising himself as Shinichi so that a suspicious Ran would stop suspecting Conan.

==== [[Mary Sera]] ====
Conan has been trying to discover the truth about [[Mary]] since the day he first saw her in a picture with Masumi Sera. In "The detective boys in the grove" case, he noticed Ai's uncanny resemblance to Mary. Then, he find out that the mysterious girl is the mother of Masumi Sera, Shukichi Haneda and Shuichi Akai and the wife of Tsutomu Akai, now somehow shrunken. On the other hand, Mary remains skeptical of Conan telling her daughter to be aware of him as he isn't the same boy they met 10 years ago.

==== [[Kanenori Wakita]] ====
In his introductory case, Conan noticed that he had a medical patch on his left eye, although Wakita claims it is only temporary. He obviously chose not to see the messy left eye, along with Kogoro and Ran.

In the Search for Maria-chan!, while Conan is hiding at Agasa's due to the uproar or his appearance as Kudo Shinichi on a case, during his Kyoto Field Trip, he noticed that Wakita knocked on Agasa's door, and asked about all of the press stationed next door outside of the Kudo gate, while he claimed to be making a delivery to someone in the neighorhood.

(He could have just asked the person that his delivery was for, but no. Let's ask the Kudos' [[Agasa Hiroshi|next door neighbor]]. Plus it is highly unlikely that [[Subaru]], the supposedly DEAD FBI agent, [[Akai]], who is residing in the [[Kudo Shinichi|Kudo]] house, which is the house to the supposedly dead teenage detective, would ever order for Delivery. Take-out, maybe, but not Delivery.)

== People who know Conan's real identity ==
{{main|List of characters who know Conan's identity}}
There are only a few characters in the series who know Conan's real identity. None of them have ever betrayed Conan's identity to date. The main characters to know the secret are [[Hiroshi Agasa]], [[Yusaku Kudo]], [[Yukiko Kudo]], [[Heiji Hattori]], and [[Ai Haibara]]. [[Vermouth]] of the Black Organization also knows about Conan's secret. Later, in Episode 508 of the anime, [[Eisuke Hondou]] confirms Conan's identity as [[Shinichi Kudo]] straight from him. In manga chapter 812-814, [[Subaru Okiya]] ([[Shuichi Akai]] in disguise) confirms that Conan is Shinichi. [[Masumi Sera]] also knows that Conan is Shinichi Kudo before they even first met. It is also hinted that [[Mary]] knows about Conan's true identity, telling her daughter Masumi to be wary of him.

In the 13th movie, the Black Organization member [[Irish]] discovers that Conan is actually Shinichi Kudo.

The 3rd, 8th, 14th, 19th and 23th movies also demonstrate that [[Kaitou Kid]] apparently knows Conan's identity and acts to protect it. Though it was once unconfirmed if he knew in the manga, it was recently confirmed in the Fairy Lips case, where Kid thinks that there are "two high school detectives" on the scene, referring to Heiji, and Conan, the only other high school detective there. It is unknown how he came to figure this out.

== People who know that Conan is behind the "Sleeping Kogoro" ==
{{main|List of characters who know Conan is Sleeping Kogoro}}
There is even a varied list of those who know that Conan is the puppeteer behind the "Sleeping Kogoro."

== Gadgets ==
{{main|Gadgets}}
Professor Agasa has made many gadgets for Conan, including a tranquilizer wristwatch, voice-modulating bow tie, kick-enhancing shoes, tracking/binocular glasses, stretchable suspenders, and a solar powered skateboard. Conan uses the first two regularly to create "Sleeping Kogoro", and the glasses and other gadgets to investigate cases or catch criminals. Agasa also created radio badges and watch flashlights Conan and the other Detective Boys.

== Name origin ==
Gosho Aoyama (and Shinichi, in the story) got the name 'Conan Edogawa' from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, author of the famous Sherlock Holmes stories, and Edogawa Rampo, the pen name of Japanese mystery fiction writer Hirai Tarō. Hirai Tarō himself got the pen name "Edogawa Rampo" from a transliteration of "Edgar Allan Poe." Pronouncing Poe's name in a Japanese accent sounds like 'Edogawa Rampo.'

== Character inspiration ==
Gosho said Conan's hairstyle was designed in about one minute. He smoothed [[Yaiba]]'s hair and added a tuft modeled after the apostrophe hairstyle of Kabu from [[Wikipedia:Sally_the_Witch|Sally the Witch]]. The tuft on hair on the top of Conan's head comes from the character Shichimi in [[Wikipedia:Niji Iro Tōgarashi|Niji Iro Tōgarashi]]. Conan's clothes were modeled after [[Wikipedia:Shichi-Go-San|Shichi-Go-San (7-5-3) clothing]]. Young Gosho wore a bow tie and shorts in his Shichi-Go-San photographs. Gosho tries to restrict Conan's gadgets to what Conan can wear, but he has run out of ideas lately. The use of glasses as a disguise was modeled after [[Wikipedia:Superman|Superman]]'s Clark Kent. Conan's speech habits were meant to be slightly rough like Joe from [[Wikipedia:Ashita no Joe|Ashita no Joe]] and [[Wikipedia:Touch (manga)|Touch]].<ref>File 865 Shounen Sunday Special Booklet</ref>

== Trivia ==
* Conan's bad singing came to light as a joke after the anime began airing because Conan's voice actress [[Minami Takayama]] is a well-known singer. In [[Volume 15]] of the manga, Takayama herself is kidnapped and Conan, who sounds similar to her, tries to take her place at a concert. However, despite having similar voices, they sound completely different when it comes to singing.<ref>[[Volume 15|Volume 15, Files 144-146: "Their Voices Are Alike!?"]]</ref>
* [[Image:EP622-623 Gallery 16.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan's cellphone wallpaper - Kogoro changed it when he was drunk]]He owns two cellphones, the one he uses as Conan and one that he uses as Shinichi. He is also shown using different kinds of cellphones throughout the series.
* Conan often uses the expression "Ah-le-le?" when he is trying to point out a clue, something that is usually said by Japanese grade-schoolers. The expression was even [[The Sullied Masked Hero|said by Kogoro]] out of irritation at Conan (right before Conan tranquilized him). Conan's habit of acting juvenile to disguise his real abilities also [[Festival Dolls Dyed in the Setting Sun|draws the ire]] of the Detective Boys.
* Conan/Shinichi and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] share the same blood type as mention in episode 189.
* Conan/Shinchi's favorite drink is iced coffee as shown in Episode 814, Episode 919 etc. Shinichi's favorite drink is shown in [[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie]] when Daisuke say's that he isn't the only one who drinks iced coffee throughout the year. The lemon pie does not count as Shinichi's favorite during [[The Memories of First Love Case]] because the woman Asami Uchida, whose first love was Shinichi, told this to Ran and her specialty in the past was baking that same lemon pie that she finally perfected so Shinichi will tell her that the pie was delicious. Unless Gosho Aoyama said otherwise, the lemon pie may not be Shinichi's favorite and it was only brought up during that case alone.
* Whenever dealing with a particularly difficult case, Shinichi/Conan juggles a soccer ball to think better. In scenes where he doesn't have one, he often holds his chin with his thumb and forefinger.
* Conan/Shinichi doesn't know that ironically, due to all his secret keeping from Ran, he's potentially locked himself out of learning about Ran's own encounter(s) with the Black Organization, because she has no reason to tell 'Conan' about them. Shinichi/Conan has no idea that Ran has encountered Vermouth and saved Haibara from her, even 500+ chapters after it occurred. The fact that Haibara herself is invested in keeping Ran out of anything to do with the Black Organization only adds to this, as she deliberately lied to Conan/Shinichi about who saved her that night. Ran not knowing Conan's identity also prevents them from confiding in each other or pooling together information they might have in other areas, and thus can extend the time it takes for important realizations to come to light.
*In File 1045, it is revealed that Conan and Yumi have each other's phone numbers.
*In File 900, it is revealed that Conan and Miwako Sato have each other's phone numbers.
* According to Gosho in Super Digest Book 90+ that from time to time, Conan wears a jumper with a "K" written on which stands for "Karl Helmutt".
*No matter where Conan goes, he can't go anywhere without stumbling upon a murder or some other crime. Lampshaded after a while by whichever of the police officers happens to be on duty in that area and some of the characters:
:*Megure in particular begins to wonder if Kogoro is actually the Angel of Death, later on more accurately shifting his joking suspicions towards Conan himself as seen in Episode 549.
:*during The Final Screening Murder Case (manga chapter 222/anime episode 138) where the Detective Boys are watching movies in a theater and Ai tells Conan he should relax and enjoy a "child's vacation." When someone is killed at the back of the theater, Ai remarks, "It seems you never have time for a vacation."
:*In episode 141, Heiji says about Conan, "Every time I see that guy a case occurs," ... about thirty seconds before a scream is heard and a body discovered.
:*And during The Mystery in the Netcase (File 311-313/episodes 246-247) where the Detective Boys and Ran and Sonoko independently wind up at the same beach, Sonoko says of Conan, "The reason we didn't bring him was because there are always cases when he's around!"
:**Later in the same episode, Haibara learns where Conan and the others are after they're late returning to their hotel (having discovered a murder while she was not present) by asking the hotel staff if there is a murder being investigated nearby.
:*At the beginning of the first file of the paper airplane case, Conan notices how he seems to be running into cases all the time. This is the first time he's ever noticed, and this is over 600 chapters into the manga.
:*Except that in the very first chapter of the whole manga, he tells Ran that murders "happen all the time", which implies that encountering a lot of murders is normal to him. The rate of cases must have ramped up even further for him to notice that something is odd.
*In episode 681, it's revealed Conan has Detective Chiba's phone number.

'''{{nihongo|Conan Edogawa|江戸川コナン|Edogawa Konan}}''' is the alias used by [[Shinichi Kudo]] in his shrunken form. Shinichi took the appearance of his six or seven year old self after being exposed to a prototype poison called [[APTX 4869]], which he had been forced to swallow by two men in black later revealed to be members of the [[Black Organization]].<ref name="e1">[[Roller Coaster Murder Case|Episode 1: Roller Coaster Murder Case]]</ref> The poison de-aged Shinichi's entire body except for his nervous system and therefore he still has the personality, memories, and incredible deductive ability of his teenage self. Conan's goal is to hunt down the Black Organization and have them arrested for their crimes, as well as find an antidote to the APTX 4869. To do so he plans to make the washout detective [[Kogoro Mouri]] famous in hopes of attracting cases related to the Black Organization.

Conan is often treated as a separate character from Shinichi by fans, and often viewed as the main character of the series while Shinichi is viewed as a recurring character. He has become a popular figure in Japan and even appeared at numerous occasions in different anime series (i.e. mainly cameo appearances) as well as other medias.

== Background ==
''Conan Edogawa'' is [[Shinichi Kudo]]'s alter ego. He did not exist prior to the chain of events, involving members of the [[Black Organization]], that led Shinichi to transform back into a child.

[[File:APTX 4869 given to Shinichi.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Shinichi being drugged.]]
=== The Transformation ===
At the beginning of the series, Shinichi brings his friend [[Ran Mouri]] to [[Setting#Tropical_Land|Tropical Land]], a local theme park, to celebrate her victory in the Metropolitan Karate Championships. He later ends up solving a murder case there.<ref name="e1" /> As they are leaving, Shinichi witnesses a suspicious exchange between an unknown business man and [[Vodka|a man in black]] in a secluded area by the ferris wheel. While spying on the suspicious men, Shinichi does not notice [[Gin|another man in black]], who knocks him out from behind and forces him to swallow a new experimental poison known as [[APTX 4869]]. They then leave him to die. However, instead of killing Shinichi, a rare side-effect occurred. Shinichi's body shrunk back to that of his six-year-old self.<ref>[[Volume 1#File 002 - The Great Detective Turned Small|Volume 1, File 2, page 59: "The Great Detective Turned Small"]]</ref> In desperation and confusion, Shinichi heads back to his house and runs into his next door neighbor and close family friend, [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]]. After a few attempts at proving he's in fact Shinichi, he finally succeeds in convincing the Professor. The latter warns him he must keep his identity secret as the [[Black Organization]] will surely try to kill him and others associated with him should they learn the truth.<ref name="e2">[[Company President's Daughter Kidnapping Case|Episode 2: Company President's Daughter Kidnapping Case]].</ref>

Shinichi comes up with the alias Conan Edogawa using the mystery author names [[Arthur Conan Doyle|Arthur '''''Conan''''' Doyle]] and [[Edogawa Rampo|'''''Edogawa''''' Rampo]] and pretends to be a distant relative of Agasa's who then places Conan in Ran's care.<ref name="e2" /> Ran's father, [[Kogoro Mouri]], owns a Detective Agency which may provide a chance for Conan to run into a case involving the Black Organization. However, Kogoro is a terrible detective with little credibility. Using helpful gadgets that Agasa makes, Conan sets out to improve Kogoro's detective reputation by solving cases for him while also hiding the truth that Conan is really the one solving cases. By knocking Kogoro out at crime scenes with a fast-acting [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|tranquilizer]] and using a [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|voice modulator]] to relay deductions in Kogoro's voice, Conan creates 'Sleeping Kogoro'. The conceited Kogoro enjoys his newfound reputation and the money it brings in so much that he doesn't question why he is suddenly passing out at crime scenes and solving cases in his sleep.

=== Creation of the Detective Boys ===
Conan enrolls at [[Teitan Elementary School]] to further protect his identity and is befriended by classmates [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]], [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]], and [[Genta Kojima|Genta]], who create the ''[[Detective Boys]]'' not long after.<ref>[[The Coded Map of the City Case|Episode 4: The Coded Map of the City Case]]</ref> In the beginning he found the kids annoying, but he started to warm up to them and even gives them missions to accomplish.

[[Image:Conan Stuns Kogoro.jpg|thumb|200px|Conan stuns Kogoro with his wristwatch, ready to solve a case!]]

=== Solving cases ===
As Conan, Shinichi helps Ran's father solve cases by putting him to sleep and simulating Kogoro's voice using the special bowtie gadget Professor Agasa made for him. He also spends a good amount of time with his Detective Boys fellows and solves many small cases with them and sometimes in the company of Professor Agasa. In some situations, when there's only Ran, Sonoko, and himself, he will use Sonoko instead to solve the case at hand. Because of that, Sonoko eventually becomes another moderately well-known "sleeping" detective, although her reputation is only known to the local police investigation team and Sonoko's friends. In much later files, Conan has solved the case as himself then claimed afterwards that Shinichi told him what to say.

=== Encounter Black Organization ===
Soon after being shrunk, Conan sets the plan to pursue and arrest the Black Organization members. Initial attempts were in vain until Haibara appears and starts giving clues on their whereabouts. However, in some of his early attempts, Conan tends to underestimate the ability of the Organization, leading to situations where he or his close friends being harmed and almost killed. Once understood the Organization and having allies to help, among them Shuichi Akai, who had been undercover in the organization and knows their ways, his later plans are more successful to foil Black Organization's plans, although he hasn't been able to expose the Black Organization and arrest their members yet.

== Personality ==
As Conan, Shinichi tries to behave like a child. He refers to Ran as "Ran-neechan" (''nee-chan'' meaning older sister, a common nickname Japanese children give to teenagers and young adults they look up to), and refers to Shinichi as "Shinichi-niichan" (''nii-chan'' meaning older brother). He also refers to Kogoro as "Oji-san" or "Occhan" (both meaning Uncle), although he also does this as Shinichi. As Shinichi, he refers to Conan as usually "Conan-kun" or the "Kid in the Glasses". Shinichi treats Conan as a separate person completely, thinking for example, "changing back into Conan".

[[File:Ran telling Conan she likes Shinichi.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Ran telling Conan she likes Shinichi.]]
[[File:Ran conan do not tell.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Ran telling Conan she likes Shinichi (Picture from the "[[Episode One: The Great Detective Turned Small|Episode one]]" version).]]
Conan remains very close to Ran, who in return is very protective of him. However, because Ran is unaware of his true identity, Conan often finds himself in awkward situations with her, such as when she confessed her feeling for Shinichi to him and when she made him bathe with her at a hot spring.

Conan's intelligence remains intact even though he has shrunken into a child. As Shinichi, his deductive ability earned him the monikers "[[Wikipedia: Heisei|Heisei]] Holmes" and "Savior of the Japanese police force". Conan maintains an extraordinarily broad knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases and escape tricky situations. Conan tries to speak in a child-like manner when dealing with adults, but he often gets caught up in the current case and begins speaking like an adult, referring to advanced topics and using reasoning much too complex for a normal child. When this happens, he often tries to pass it off as "something [he] heard on TV" or "taught by uncle Kogoro/professor Agasa/Shinichi-niichan".
Likewise, he makes no effort to hide his love for [[Sherlock Holmes]] and soccer, so if he called out for talking about either subject in too much detail, he tries to escape suspicion by saying it was something Shinichi told him about. Although as the series has progressed the adults around him have
become more used to his "being quite smart for a child", causing him to behave more like himself around them, he still tries to pass as a normal child.
[[File:Conan, Tome, and Chiba.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan whispers to [[Kazunobu Chiba]] and [[Officer Tome|Tome]].]]
The only police officers with whom Conan can speak in a professional manner are the [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]], especially [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], [[James Black]], and Inspector [[Kansuke Yamato]] of the Nagano Police, all of whom suspect that there is more to Conan than meets the eye.

Conan tends to act more like himself around the [[Detective Boys]], even to the point that they find it odd when he acts like a child around adults. He will often play games like baseball with the Detective Boys, but he is too used to soccer to perform well and will even instinctively use soccer techniques, such as kicking in games that do not call for it. Because he is unfamiliar with popular games and TV shows, and bad at video games, Genta and the others tend to think of him as dumb. This annoys Conan so much that he will secretly watch TV in the living room after Kogoro and Ran go to sleep to get more "practice" in.

While he thinks that criminals should be punished, he also seem willing to give culprits, who has attempted murder due to misunderstandings and fail, a second chance and let them off the hook. <ref>The Celebrities' Secret</ref><ref>Won't Forgive Even One Millimeter</ref><ref>Scuba Diving Murder Case</ref><ref>Poisoned Fisherman Attempted Murder Case</ref>

After he had one time failed to stop the culprit from committing suicide,<ref>[[Moonlight Sonata Murder Case|Episodes 11: Moonlight Sonata Murder Case]].</ref> he began to believe that a detective who has cornered a killer and just let him kill himself is no better than a murderer, and therefore he tries to do everything to stop it. At times when he fails to save the killer it haunts him. At first, he's callous and unempathetic: in The Bandage Man Villa murder case, when the culprit threatens to commit suicide, Shinichi calls his bluff by outright telling him to do it. However, soon after that Shinichi suffers through his own Norbury with the Moonlight Sonata Murder Case, during which a culprit commits suicide because Shinichi identified them without thinking ahead to how the culprit might react. The next two cases where a culprit plans to commit suicide has Shinichi removing the lethal tools before confronting them and placing officers around the perimeter to prevent the culprit from jumping respectively—and in each instance, Shinichi is clearly haunted by the death of the culprit in the Moonlight Sonata case, enough to snap at Hattori for offhandedly suggesting it may have been better if they let the culprit of the day actually kill themself, stating that a detective that allows that is "no better than a murderer himself." The Detective's Nocturne case caps off this development arc, with Shinichi accompanying and befriending a suicidal murderer in order to form an emotional connection and convince them not to kill themself.

However, an innate characteristic that he has, and probably had as Shinichi may be due to being a detective. Whenever he hears a scream, or sees a culprit, he will immediately and without hesitation run toward the sound or culprit instictively.

If he is with another adult, or detective, he will most likely be in the front 2 people running toward the sound.
If by himself or with some other non detective, he will still be running toward the sound.
Whether it is a victim or a culprit, he will be one of the first 2 people.

If it is to a victim, and another detective or officer is present, he may hang back a little, but he has no hesitations to checking on the victim, looking for clues, or going after culprits.

And while it may have been somewhat forced on, Shinichi/Conan stops being as attention-seeking as he was in his original body.
Subtle, but during "The 3 'K's of Osaka" story, Conan/Shinichi didn't want to investigate the case because his soccer idol was a suspect (and later confirmed to be the actual culprit). Afterwards, he stopped thinking like this, deciding that even if his friends, family, or someone who is close to either one is a suspect, he will consider that person a suspect until proven otherwise (such as Genta's dad being a possible suspect in "The Culprit is Genta's Dad" or Ran in "Kaitou Kid and the Blush Mermaid").
In regards to his attitude in dealing with mysterious and dangerous Black Organization (B.O.), Shinichi initially and arrogantly believed he could easily take them down, taking only minimum precautions in safety of himself and others. For example, when a B.O. member was suspected to be near in the "Reunion With The Black Organization" arc, Conan's way of protecting Haibara from being recognized is simply putting glasses on her; unfortunately, their was a B.O. member (Pisco) who instantly knew that Haibara was the shrunken Shiho Miyano and would have revealed her identity had he not been killed by Gin. It could've ended in more tragedy since Gin was very close to killing Haibara. This incident was a major wake-up call to the young detective that the organization isn't as easy to take down as he thought and that if he made a mistake, he or his loved ones could die. And while Shinichi/Conan still has a bit of a reckless side, he now asks for help when dealing with the B.O. and formulating plans to keep him and his allies safe.

== Appearance ==
[[File:Conan full face.png|thumb|right|200px|]]
Conan has dark brown hair which mostly hangs downwards just above his blue eyes, but there are also a few strands that stick up at the front and back of his head. Conan's usual outfit consists of a blue blazer with a single button and a pair of shorts, red trainers and white socks, even though he has taken to wearing more casual clothing as time goes on. He also wears a red bowtie and his dad's old glasses. Both these items were later [[Gadgets|specifically modified]] by Professor Agasa to include a [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|voice changer]], [[Button Speaker|microphone]], and [[Criminal Tracking Glasses|homing device]], to aid in Conan in his cases. His [[Power-Enhancing Kick Shoes|red shoes]] have also been modified to harness electric and magnetic fields to stimulate pressure points on Conan's foot, greatly enhancing his kicking power.

Additionally, much like Hattori and Shinichi, Conan is incredibly popular. Ayumi and Haibara both have crushes on him, he has been hit on by girls around his shrunken age repeatedly, and even Jodie and Vermouth have both been charmed by his charisma. One even promised to make him her husband.

=== Detective skills ===
[[File:Glasses Modification(Microphone).PNG|210px|thumb|right|
Conan eavesdrop Police investigation meeting in [[Zero the Enforcer|Conan the movie 22]] to save Kogoro mouri from being a suspect.]]
All of Shinichi's detective skills carry over to his Conan form, although Conan does not the have the reputation Shinichi had. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to remember every detail of an investigation or other topics he cares about, and may have a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eidetic_memory photographic memory] to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Conan's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony that other people miss, and using astute logic he uncovers the reasons behind those inconsistencies in order to link them to the crime. Conan has extraordinarily broad knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases; something he likely acquired from his incessant reading in his "first childhood". There are only few people like [[Heiji]], [[Hakuba]] and [[Yusaku]] who are at the same detective level as Conan, with Yusaku be the only person who is noticeably better than Conan.

As a child, Conan can attract less suspicion while investigating crime scenes, get away with searching people's personal property, and ask innocent questions without setting suspects on guard, although it comes with the drawback of not having Shinichi's authority or reputation. He is also shown able to read lips.<ref>[[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie]]</ref>

Additionally, in the [[Conan vs. Double Code Mystery|Red, White, Yellow case]], Conan was specifically referred to and asked for help by a fellow classmate.

=== Observation Sense ===
He is highly observant on almost every single thing in his life, whether at a crime scene, or his normal everyday life, whether he is Shinichi or Conan. If he notices anything amiss, he will frequently leave the Detective Boys, or whoever to investigate immediately, esp. if he thinks the organization is involved, but really his curiousity knows no bounds.

It is kind of like his brain will not rest, as long as he is awake because he frequently observes everything, and wants to investigate it.

[[Conan Cornered in the Darkness|At one point]], this is why he was kidnapped, and placed in a coffin with a fake bottom, in an old style hearse, which the kidnappers did not know was going to be sent to the scrapyard and crushed within hours of placing him in there.

He is also a real people watcher, and spends a lot of time watching people to help determine careers, emotions, what is going on with them to name a few. If need be he will get up, and investigate further.

He frequently notices momentary facial expressions that are only on a person's face for a second or two, which is all it takes for him to register the true emotions of people and various culprits. Such as a suddenly hidden smile upon finding the body of one's spouse, and the list goes on.

Some Examples are the following:

In [[Home of Beika's Grenier]], when the old man used a hand to stand up, despite the presence of 4 little children, Conan noticed instantly the look that the old woman gave her husband, since he should not have used his hands to stand up in the presence of others.

In [[The Tense Tea Party]], in [[Haido Central Hospital]], Conan was watching [[Bourbon]], and instantly noticed how he reacted after a small child was counting down, "Three... Two... One..." and shouted out, "Zero!!" Since Amuro noticed his own reaction, he had to cover it up, and say that "'Zero' was one his nicknames when he was a little child."

This was really the first clue to Conan that Amuro may not just be the Black Organization Member Bourbon, but [[Public Security Bureau|something else too]]. During The [[Scarlet showdown|Scarlet Return]] Episode 779-783, Conan began to deduce from his own observations, that Amuro was from the Japanese Secret Police, which became confirmed by the end of the saga.

Even when he was little he was practicing observing details and guessing careers of people, [[Episode 881|not always accurately]], but he was really a little boy at the time. This became much more accurate as he became older, and he retained this knowledge, when he shrunk down to Conan.

=== Being Watched or Paranoia Sense ===

However, this particular Sense is the sense to know when he is being watched or observed by others. It may be called Paranoia, but it is not Paranoid if someone is really watching or following him, which he can quickly pick up on usually.

This may stem from his involvement with the [[Black Organization]], and others.

It may also help that his parents like to watch their son in disguise, and [[Yukiko Kudo|esp. his Master Of Disguise Mother]], with his [[Yusaku Kudo|Mystery Author father's]] habit of testing his son's observations and deductions from the time when he was really a young child.

This ability is even more important due to the Black Organization wanting both [[Shiho Miyano|Sherry]] and his [[Shinichi Kudo|teenage self]] 'Dead," since it helps to protect them.

This sense comes in a lesser degree as well:

Although Conan can speak in a professional manner are the FBI, especially [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], [[James Black]], and [[Kansuke Yamato|Inspector Kansuke Yamato of the Nagano Police]], all of whom suspect that there is more to Conan than meets the eye, as well as everyone, who know his identity, it does cause problems with everyone else.
He can even speak this way to [[the Detective Boys]].

This Sense also allows him to eventually realize when he is being highly descriptive, and rambling with adult knowledge, for him to quickly cover it up with "saw it on Tv'" "Heard it from [[Kogoro Mouri|Uncle]], [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]], or [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]]," and to begin talking and acting like a kid, even though the Detective Boys do not get why he suddenly goes all child-like, which is really the only time he does.

It may also help him to know when [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] is suspicious that he is Shinichi Kudo, so he has to attempt to behave more like a child to mislead her for her own protection.

This sense also allows him to determine if it is safe to use his tranquilizer on someone for the "sleeping Detective" routine. If he is being too closely watched, he has to continue to give hints, and possibly throughout the entire deduction, if he is unable to tranquilize someone: Kogoro, [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]], or someone else, if necessary.

This sense did not seem to activate at all at [[Jodie's Memories and the Cherry Blossom Viewing Trap|the shrine]], when he was talking to Jodie, however, after a [[Bourbon|disguised Bourbon]] had a little chat with Jodie, and secretly placed a listening device in her sleeve, he wandered off, so that he can continue listening to them.

However, with that deceased pickpocketing case, he and the other pickpocket victims, were brought to the crime scene, so he still continued listening to Jodie and Conan's conversation, although he did not appear to really watch or pay any attention to Jodie, Conan, Agasa, or any of the 4 kids, but he probably had a good view of [[Haibara]], unlike every other time, [[Sweet and Cold Delivery Service|when she attempts to hide her face from him]].

If he was visually watching intently, Conan would probably have picked it up, but Bourbon's observations were done in a way, that did not place Conan on high alert, except for when Jodie kept bringing up "Shuu."

Needless to say, after the [[Kogoro in the Bar]] case, when Takagi told him some information, he was really on high alert, and this sense may not have activated due to his panic mode, which was still evident at the beginning of [[Bathroom Where Ran Collapsed As Well]] case, although he was being observed by Bourbon, who was listening around the corner, however for several hours later, he did appear to be quite paranoid, and maybe that is why it did not appear to activate, because he was already on high alert and frightened at the time.

Now, these sense is sometimes just a fleeting sense, however, something did seem to activate it, even if it was just momentarily, but it does leave to a hint that someone might be watching him.

=== Speed Reader ===
In [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]], he was shown to be able to read through hospital records at lightning fast speed.

=== Killer Radar ===
This radar is obviously not completely accurate, but at times, he only has to see a person to know that they are the killer.

In the first episode, he could sense that [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] were killers, but that did not stop him from tailing Vodka, only to be knocked out by Gin, and fed a [[Apoptoxin 4869|poison pill, which made him shrink to the body of a 7 year old]].

In [[The Romance Novel with the Unexpected Conclusion]], he knew who the killer within minutes of the body being discovered, and merely had to get the evidence and figure out the trick.

There are many other instances as well.

In [[The Mysterious Woman With Amnesia Case]], he probably would have picked up on the amnesiac woman being a killer, but she did have amnesia, although he highly suspected when he saw her hands, which are the hands of someone who works with wire. He picked up that she was a hit woman, who specialized in killing by use of a wire garrote, which she used to strangle her victims.

In one episode, someone fell from a balcony, and Conan knew this woman was the killer instantly. The police brought up the information of her husband being killed during a robbery awhile back.

After she was questioned, and was allowed to leave, Conan began acting and begging her to let him ride in her expensive looking car, and she did.They left without [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].

He even managed to have her take him to see her place.

After she left him alone, he began investigating, and around the time of his deduction, Kogoro called him, and the call ended soon afterward.

When Conan stated that he knows that she is responsible for the death of her husband, and the guy who just fell, she threatened to kill him, and he lets her know that he hit redial on the phone, and Kogoro stated, "The police are on there way."

=== Suicide Alertness ===
This sense allows him to determine if a person, and most likely the culprit is likely to commit suicide, which would probably be a result of the deduction stage of a case.
Sometimes, it may be simply obvious, with the culprit stating their suicidal intentions, but it is not usually that way, and Conan's sense was developed after a specific incidence.

In [[Moonlight Sonata Murder Case]], Conan figured out that the serial killer planned to die, like his father, and before their mind could be changed, the culprit literally threw Conan through the window, just before the building went up in flames. Since that incident, Conan is more determined to take the suicidal choice away from the culprits.

In [[Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case]], Conan had asked, [[Heiji]], "If he ever killed anyone before," stating that he feels that letting a person commit suicide when it can be stopped is the same as killing the person oneself.
While Conan was talking with Heiji, he was also replacing the gasoline with water in order to stop the culprits Murder/Suicide.

In [[The Case of the Besieged Detective Agency]], a gunman strapped with bombs came into the detective agency, shortly followed by three women. His instructions were to discover which of the 3 women murdered his sister, and made it look like a suicide. Conan called [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], who was with [[Sera Masumi|Sera]], and Sera closed Ran's phone, but kept her little phone thing placed inside the phone, so it is still open, and Conan can hear everything that is being spoken.

The gunman stated that he will blow up the agency, if Kogoro cannot name the killer, and that once the killer is named, he will only kill the killer and himself. Thankfully, after the gunman discovered Ran's phone was still open, he welcomed the assistance of another [[Shinichi Kudo|Detective Shinichi Kudo]].

After [[the Detective Boys]] managed to do the footwork, Conan was able to finish solving the case, but he first had to stop the gunman from committing a murder/suicide, so he bluffed that the sister killed herself.
After the gunman was arrested, Conan finished solving the case, out of earshot of the suicidal man, and named the killer, who is not who they thought it was.

In [[Detectives' Nocturne]], Conan quickly figured out that the woman in the agency's bathroom was really the killer of the "accused deceased guy.
After [[Bourbon|Amuro]], [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]], Ran, and Conan escorted her home to her apartment, then Conan behaved like he was desperate to use the bathroom, which really made sense, since a corpse was on the toilet seat of the apartment, until the police removed it, and it is still a crime scene.

When everyone else went to the kitchen for tea or something, Conan rushed to the bathroom, and quickly went the other direction in order to investigate the apartment. Most likely, he discovered bugs, and especially a bug in the suitcase with another corpse, which was under the bed.

When he was finished with his investigation, he left the apartment and waited for her.

After Masumi called Ran, Amuro and Kogoro realized there are bugs present, and Amuro hung up on Masumi.

Amuro has a bug detector, and while Amuro, Kogoro, and Ran went on the search to discover all of the bugs in the apartment, the woman made up an escuse, and immediately bumped into Conan, who was waiting for her.

She agreed to take him with her to a nearby convenience store, and gave him some juice, which she drugged with sleeping pills. After he appeared to fall asleep, she continued driving.

When Kogoro, Ran, and Amuro discovered the body, and noticed Conan's absense, Kogoro called the culprit/kidnapper, and she stated that Conan will be returned in the morning.

After Kogoro and Amuro did more investigating, and noticing that bank robbery, and that 2 of the suspects are the dead guy in the suitcase, and the deceased one at the agency.

Ran told Masumi and Agasa that Conan has been kidnapped, which of course sets the stage for the big rescue scene:

Masumi on her motorcycle

[[Subaru]], [[Agasa]], and [[Haibara]] in Subaru's car, with Haibara wearing the tracking glasses.

Amuro, Ran, and Kogoro in another Vehicle, with Kogoro in the back Seat.

At some point, Conan stopped acting like he was really asleep, and gave her his deduction, and even helped her to discover which of those 3 women is the third bank robber, who killed her boyfriend in the bank. However, he would not give her the answer straight away, since he told her, "I do not want to lose anyone. I mean you," since he read that her intentions were to kill the third robber, and then herself.

By bonding with her, he managed to get her to agree to let the police handle it, and to turn herself in, once he told her.
His plan was working splendidly until the third robber, with a shooting gun, entered the car, and grabbed and immobilized Conan, as well as holding tightly to his right wrist, so that he could not tranquilize her, which is where the rescuers came in.

In another episode, Conan was with [[the Detective Boys]], when they came across a man, and after he dropped his lottery tickets, they helped him to pick it up. This man was talking positively about the future, and he even had lunch with the 5 children.

After he left, Conan apparently notified and began teaching the other Detective Boys the signs that this man was about to commit suicide today, and they followed this man to a subway station.

Conan stating, "It'll hurt, you know," referring to jumping in front of the subway train.

Conan and all of the Detective Boys: [[Genta]], [[Mitsuhiko]], [[Ayumi]], ande [[Haibara]] told him their evidence that he was about to commit suicide.

Conan even managed to help him to locate his winning lottery ticket that he had lost, which was inside of the eyeglass container that his sick and hospitalized granddaughter gave him. He had not opened it since he lost that ticket. He was contemplating suicide in order to have his life insurance pay for her operation, thankfully he now has the lottery ticket, which may be able to help his granddaughter.

After all, if he did commit suicide, the insurance company would not have paid it, if they were aware it was a suicide, which thankfully these 5 kids prevented.

Thankfully, Conan began teaching the other Detective Boys some of the signs of a suicidal person, so they may be aware of them next time they find another suicidal person.

=== Bluffing and Telling Lies===
He can bluff, if needed in order to come to the correct deduction, however he is not a great Liar.

Bluffing is giving misinformation, in order to trip up the culprit. A few examples of Conan's Bluffs are the following:

In [[Holmes Freak Murder Case]], he stated the incorrect question of number 241 on that Holmes Test to prove that the culprit did not answer any of the 1,000 questions, since he knew the test grader was already deceased.

In [[The Case of the Lucky Calico|the Lucky Calico]] case, he really told 2 bluffs, although only 1 bluff was discussed:

The first one was to mistake the gender of a male calico, and stating it was a female, in order to gauge how this "supposed owner" would react, since male calico cats are worth a fortune. Conan managed to see the reaction before [[the Detective Boys]] blew it. Either way, this "supposed owner would have backed out if the calico was a female.

The second bluff was discussed when [[Azusa]] stated that she did not know that "when a group of people are together, the cat will always jump to the one in the middle." [[Amuro]] stated that Conan did a bluff, so that he can perform his own experiment with the calico and the 3 "supposed owners," before remarking that Conan is like a cat sharpening his claws." Amuro also did not state that it was to allow more time to pass, so that the [http://catnip catnip], would have no effect on [[Taii]] or [[Goro]], so that Taii's true owner can be properly identified.

In [[The Case of the Besieged Detective Agency]], a gunman strapped with bombs came into the detective agency, shortly followed by three women. His instructions were to discover which of the 3 women murdered his sister, and made it look like a suicide. Conan called [[Ran]], who was with [[Sera Masumi|Sera]], and Sera closed Ran's phone, but kept her little phone thing placed inside the phone, so it is still open, and Conan can hear everything that is being spoken.

The gunman stated that he will blow up the agency, if Kogoro cannot name the killer, and that once the killer is named, he will only kill the killer and himself. Thankfully, after the gunman discovered Ran's phone was still open, he welcomed the assistance of another [[Shinichi Kudo|Detective Shinichi Kudo]].

After [[the Detective Boys]] managed to do the footwork, Conan was able to finish solving the case, but he first had to stop the gunman from committing a murder/suicide, so he bluffed that the sister killed herself.
After the gunman was arrested, Conan finished solving the case, out of earshot of the suicidal man, and named the killer, who is not who they thought it was.

As far as his cover of Conan Edogawa, he does have a hard time keeping others ignorant of his true identity.
It does not help that he behaves more like an adult, when not actively playing with the Detective Boys, and he quickly switches to Adult Mode, if an investigation is in order, due to a crime or something else entirely.

Two major examples of his being a lousy liar:

When he had a hold of [[Kir]]'s shoe, with his bug and transmitter, at the park, she asked him if he followed her, while applying her CIA Lie Test to him.
She made him feel weird, and he did say "no," but she knew that he did follow her, and lied about it. It is a good thing that she previously turned off her own camera or wire, so the other [[Black Organization|Black Organization Operatives]] may not kill him. She then thanked him for "picking up her shoe for her," before leaving.

In [[Haido Central Hospital]], [[Amuro]] asked Conan if he remembers his friend, [[Kusuda Rikumichi]], who was a patient, but went missing.
[[The Tense Tea Party|Conan, quickly trying to end that line of questioning from Bourbon, quickly answered, "No."]]

Amuro smiled, and told him that he was amazing. He then went to question other people nearby, and returned to Conan, and stated, "Most people are not confident in their own memories to instantly remember a person by their name only. Usually they have to ask questions, before answering."
It is kind of like Amuro was aware of how amazing Conan is at so many different things, but he can't lie to save his life.
It is like Amuro decided to give the kid a tip on how to tell a convincing lie.

=== Strategist ===
He may not have always been a great strategist, but his strategies are becoming much better.

In [[Boy Genta's Misfortune]], he deduced information pertaining to the Culprit, and ... He may not have organized the stakeout of that building yet, however he definitely did organize a road block with Sato, who got in contact with Yumi in [[The Man from Chicago]], when a [[James Black|foreign man]] was kidnapped. Unfortunately, Yumi did let them through since they were in a police car, and dressed as policemen, however when they deduced that Conan came up with a scheme so that the police can surround the culprits, by making it look like they were chasing some kidnappers, who kidnapped some kids. The plan worked wonders. By the way, even James Black the kidnappee, knew who staged his rescue with that ploy, after just one encounter with the five "Detective Boys," and all Conan had to go on was "P & A."

In [[Contact with the Black Organization]], when Conan was on the phone with [[Vodka]], pretending to be the recently found '[[Suguru Itakura|dead guy]],' he successfully managed to move the meet up. He wanted to have the meet before they found out the guy was dead, and he was hoping to get fingerprints, saliva, DNA, etc.

The thing is it may have worked if [[Gin]] did not stop Vodka from touching the item. In short, Gin became aware that someone crafty, like a fox, is after them. In short, Conan forgot, who he was dealing with, the "[[Black Organization|Men in Black]]," and to be more precise, the two that [[Roller Coaster Murder Case|shrunk, and almost killed]] him before.

Conan managed to survive that encounter, but just barely due to Gin discounting something important. At any rate, Conan was stuck in that locker for several hours, and even lost some oxygen, and blacked out for awhile. Conan has since that time became much more cautious when dealing with the organization, unfortunately there is no one-hundred percent safe way to take on that organization.

In [[Episode 345|Head-To-Head]], after he received an invitation from [[Vermouth]], he asked [[Haibara]] about her, and decided to tranquilize her, and lock her in the basement, and attempted to hide the spare tracking glasses.

He mentioned to [[Agasa]], that [[Shinichi Kudo]]'s name is on the invitation and envelope, and his: Conan Edogawa's name is on the letter, in short, Vermouth knows his identity.

He e-mailed someone and got a reply and a sudden cough.
He inspected his house, and found [[Yukiko Kudo|his mother]].

He told his mother about Vermouth, and her knowing his identity. He had her do some disguises.
Yukiko disguised [[Hattori]] as first a teenage Shinichi, and then as the Invisible Man for the party.
She then disguised Conan to took like Haibara.
She then gave herself a Medusa Disguise, and accompanied Hattori on the ship with Kudo's invitation.

[[Jodie]] picked up Haibara, who was really a disguised Conan, and he told her what to say in order for Vermouth to reveal herself.

He planned on having her take him in to the Organization, but she attempted to kill Jodie, he unmasked himself, and his plan really went out the window, when Haibara escaped from the basement, and found the spare tracking glasses, and arrived at the scene, since she was tracking Conan.

In [[Clash of Red and Black]], he came up with a few strategies:
He told his plan to [[Akai]], who was heavily involved with both major SECRET strategies.

Fist, you need a "[[Eisuke Hondo|Prince]] to wake up the [[Kir|sleeping Princess]]," which means Eisuke to wake up his sister, who is continuing to fake her comatose condition.

Then Conan, Akai, Kir, and [[Camel]] are involved in the returning Kir back Undercover in the [[Black Organization]], keeping everyone else in the dark, until she is back undercover.

Then Conan came up with the plan to fake Akai's death by out guessing [[Gin]], the entire way. Only Akai and Kir, as well as Conan were in on this plan, but Conan could not be present, at this time at all, and did need to give Jodie his phone with the needed fingerprints. Everyone else was left in the dark, except for [[James Black]], who noticed the glue like substance on Akai's fingertips just prior to the meet.

In [[The Jet-Black Mystery Train]], Conan had even less time to come up with a working strategy, since he did have his guard down. Thankfully, his mother let him know Vermouth was on the train, and he saw the Picture [[Mitsuhiko]] took of [[Shiho Miyano|Sherry]], when she saved them a little earlier.

He had to quickly come up with a plan, which used an all-star cast of himself, his mother, [[Subaru]], and [[Kaito Kid|Kid disguised as Sherry]] as the finishing touches.

That strategy worked out big time, since they were able to save Haibara's life, discover [[Bourbon]]'s identity, and make Vermouth agree to quit trying to kill her.

In [[Scarlet showdown|the Scarlet episodes]], after Camel let it slip that [[Rikumichi Kusuda|Kusada]] shot himself in the head, Conan had less then a day to come up with a plan that made Bourbon think that Subaru and Akai were 2 different people, and to save Akai again.

This time, Akai was in the back of Jodie and Camel's car.

His mother, Yukiko Kudo, was disguised as her husband appearing on tv at an awards ceremony.

His father, Yusaku Kudo, was dressed as [[Subaru]].
His father was wearing a voice changing facemask, and did a bit of coughing.
Sometimes he answered, and sometimes, Conan listening in another room, with a number of cameras, had to also use Subaru's voice, when talking to Bourbon in the living room.

=== Athletic ability ===
Conan is just as skilled as Shinichi in soccer, but a lot less powerful because he only has the strength of a young child. To make up for this, Conan uses Agasa's Power-enhancing kick shoes. Conan uses signature, powerful precision kick to knock out criminals using soccer balls or whatever substitute is handy. Like Shinichi, Conan's kick is accurate over distances and he is capable of mentally reckoning the angle of impact necessary to rebound a soccer ball off a wall and strike an attacker from behind. He is also good at skiing, snowboarding, and ice-skating.

Conan also has some skill with firearms despite the recoil being much more severe for a child's body. He shoots out a bus window during a bus hijacking, and precisely grazes Ran's leg to render her useless as a hostage in the second movie.

Conan's nimbleness is especially noticeable in the non-[[canon]] movies. For example, in the sixth movie, Conan is seen to fight with various antagonists, and he even holds his own against Jack the Ripper, a notorious serial killer who bests even Ran in combat. In the fourteenth movie, Conan does a back flip on his skateboard in order to avoid being killed by the blimp's hijackers. Conan shows a proclivity for skateboarding. In the movies and anime, Conan can easily perform very complicated tricks and dodges with his skateboard at high speed.

=== Acting Ability ===
He may not have great acting ability, however he is good enough to accomplish his goals.

In [[Detectives' Nocturne]], he was given some juice, drugged with sleeping pills. He noticed that the safety seal was broken, so he pretended to drink it, and also at some time, appeared to fall asleep, spilling half of the juice on the back seat floorboard of her car, and really acted asleep for a long time.

At some point, she even laid him down in the back seat, where he remained in that pose for a long time.

When it was dark, and she stopped to get gas, and go to the restroom, she covered him with her coat, so he would not get sick.

He continued acting asleep, when she returned, although he probably went through her coat pockets when she was away.

He continued acting asleep, until he decided that he had enough evidence for his deduction, and to give it to her.

In [[Two Days with the Culprit]], after he was kidnapped by Ryousuke Oomine, when he had an opening in some kind of room, he acted like he was scared of a rat or something, and began hugging, but in reality, he was frisking him in order to determine if he is armed.

After he solved the case, he asked Ryousuke Oomine, "how are you at acting," and they went to the location of the three suspects, and put on an act, like he was about to kill Conan, in order for the culprit to reveal himself. It worked.

In [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night ]], Conan did a good job of acting like [[Haibara]] in the car with [[Jodie]], but he probably broke character in order to tell Jodie what to say to [[Vermouth]] in order to get her to reveal herself to them, but that also earned his trust in Jodie at the same time.

After he removed his Haibara mask, he was distracted, when Haibara showed up on the scene, which gave Vermouth the needed opening to use his stun gun wrist watch on him, to place him to sleep, before gently sitting him down beside the car, so he does not get hurt in the fall.

After Vermouth abducted an unconscious Conan, and drove some distance away, she e-mailed the boss, and began thinking. When she touched his shoulders, she apparently felt some wires and stuff on him, so she cut his coat, and found a number of tubes going from Conan's body into a box. She started to rip out the wires from the box, and heard, "I wouldn't if I were you." If those wires were pulled, it would send information to the machine that he is dead, and that e-mail that she just sent would be sent to his partner and the police. It is unknown just how long he was asleep, and when he woke up, but he later recalled the sound of the digits to the Boss.

In [[The Disappearance of Conan Edogawa: The Worst Two Days in History]], the TV Special, while in a public bathroom, and after Conan saw some important evidence, he realized the danger, and faked a slip on the wet floor, where he was promptly chloroformed, and abducted.

When he woke up, he pretended that he had amnesia.
He eventually revealed that he was Edogawa Conan Detective to one of the people involved, however the amnesiac child act had to continue for the duration of the case.

In [[The Woman with White Hands|The Woman with White Hands Case]], while rehearsing his lines for tomorrow's play, Conan is playing 'Ikku' in the school play.

All of the following: [[Kobayashi-sensei]], [[Rumi Wakasa|Rumi-sensei]] as well as Conan's classmates are astonished at his wonderful acting and delivery of his lines.

He told Haibara that he played that part when he was in third grade, and his parents had trained him well. With [[Yukiko Kudo|his mother being an actress]], and his [[Yusaku Kudo|father being a mystery writer]], who suggested a better phrase for him to say rather than the written line.

In short, neither of his parents would have permitted him to give anything less than a stellar performance, so they made certain his performance was perfect. This is why, he missed several rehearsals as Conan as he remembered most of his lines.

In [[A Crab and Whale Kidnapping Case]], at a beer garden at night, Conan overheard this man on the phone, and surmissed that his child had been abducted. Surprisingly Kogoro and Ran listened, and they followed this man, who they found out was a dentist.

However, the only way to find out more, and everything, is to talk to the dentist. Since there may be some onlookers, Conan decided to play the part of a patient.

He did a magnificent job of acting like a little boy who had an excruciatingly bad toothache in order to convince any onlookers that he was a patient, so that they could enter the Dentist office and talk to the Dentist. He appeared to be even louder than Kogoro on the intercom, asking for his child to be able to see the dentist, even though the dentist office is closed.

As good as he is at acting, he is not always great at it.

Most notibly, when he is petrified.

When he hears the [[Nanatsu no Ko|7 children's melody]], he is unable to even act, like it is nothing, and esp. if he hears if in regards to dialing the [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|Boss's]] [[The Raven Chaser|E-mail]] [[Dissonance of the Stradivarius Violin|address]].

At the [[Jodie's Memories and the Cherry Blossom Viewing Trap|shrine with Jodie]], he was definity unguarded, and the two did quite a bit of talking: before and after she had been bugged by a disguised [[Bourbon]] (Claiming to be [[Tohei Benzaki|a hostage, who was coincidentally pickpocketed just prior to being knocked out by Bourbon]], at the same bank with Jodie and the [[Scar Akai|scarred guy]]), until a disguised Vermouth (Claiming to be his [[Motoe Benzaki|6 month pregnant wife, who taped up Jodie]] at the bank) removed the bug.

In the [[Kogoro in the Bar|Kogoro at the Bar Case]], [[Takagi Wataru|Detective Takagi]] notified Conan, that Tohei Benzaki, claims that he was never involved in a pickpocket case, and that he is single, and Conan begins to remember that the Bank robbers separated the hostages, who came with someone, from those who came alone. Only those who came alone taped up the ones who came with others.

This placed Conan in a panicky state, and he began running from the bar, probably to the [[Agasa|professor]]'s house, since it is unlikely that he would have fled back to the Detective Agency, since [[Haibara]] might be in danger. If he did go to Agasa's house, it may also have placed [[Subaru]]/ [[Akai]] in danger too.

In [[Bathroom Where Ran Collapsed As Well|the Bathroom where Ran Collapsed As Well Case]], he was still running from the bar.

He began thinking that Bourbon and Vermouth may have made those purposeful mistakes in their story to trap him into making a mistake too, so he tried to calm down, and called Haibara, who apparently is safe, at this time. He then hung up.

Around the corner, Bourbon had been closely watching him, when he was on the phone.

Later that day, [[Ran]] and Conan were in an apartment complex lobby, while they were waiting for [[Eri Kisaki|Ran's mother]], in order to have lunch.

Conan was attempting to act normal, although he failed miserably, since he was literally looking around the entire time, since they arrived, and probably ever since he hung up from Haibara earlier.

He was so obviously frightened, that Ran asked if he is okay. He answered in the affirmative, but soon afterwards, he was literally sweating bullets.

Ran thought about taking him home, rather than eating with her Mom, since he might be coming down with something.

Soon afterwards, an already terrified Conan begins hearing the shutter of a camera, and becomes even more terrified. Soon afterwards, he saw a camera take his picture from behind a nearby chair, and [[Masumi]] came out of hiding, which really helped his fear to disappear, so that he can really go back to his normal "Not terrified for your life" state again.

She probably witnessed his fear, while working on a case for her client, but chose to help him to calm down finally.

In short, when he is terrified, he is unable to act like everything is normal.

Another way that he fails at acting is when he cracks the culprit's trick, and gets the last bit of evidence for his deduction.

If anyone is really watching Conan at these times, he may have some explaining to do.
However no one is really paying attention to him at these many times. They are either not around, due to 'less footwork' or completely ignoring him, unless they (Kogoro) wants to get on to him for being where he shouldn't, and reacts promptly to that reprimand, rather than really observing him.

He has shown both of these expressions a lot, and sometimes even both of them.
The first is when he usually figures out the trick, and the momentary reaction he has when everything clicks into place.
The second has finally been termed as a 'Prankster Smile' in the lucky calico case, by the detective boys, most noticeably Haibara and Ayumi in that order to realize that when he shows that smile, he has cracked the case and figured out everything.

Unfortunately, he is frequently unable to act bored much of the time, even as Conan, since he is a genius, who could probably teach his high school teachers things as Shinichi Kudo, and bring him back to elementary school, and he is bored to death if he can't use his intellectual brain, which does help that most of the culprits do have a trick that requires to be cracked if they are to be caught.

However, if a trick, code, or riddle is highly perplexing, Conan seems not to be able to hide his excitement, which he is not good at hiding to the observant.

=== Thirst For Intellectual Stimuli ===
In [[The Secret of the Moon, the Star, and the Sun]], Professor Agasa made a treasure hunt game for the Detecctive Boys, really wanting it to be very difficult that Shinichi would practically give up, forgetting that if it was that way, the three real first graders would be unable to crack it at all.

At any rate, Conan had already cracked the case, and found the professor's box within five minutes of entering the house, and he was focused on a much more complex code that someone else had come up with at the house.

The Detective Boys reprimanded Conan for being lazy, and not helping figuring out where the clues to the Professor's treasure hunt, so that Conan had to lead the lazy children to each clue, so it is surprising that he did not just tell them where the box is, and don't bother him while he is focused on this less boring code.

However, Agasa noticed Conan's deliriously happy expression when he was getting to solve a complicated riddle. Conan even stated, "The more I don't understand, the more excited I get."

Conan seems not to be able to hide his excitement in these cases, much like his boredom when he cannot use his brain, and [[The Final Screening Murder Case]] showed his limit is really only two hours, than he HAS to use his brain to be HAPPY.

He really only seems happy when he is able to use his brain or with Ran, and even then, there are lots of idiots in his world, not saying names though. Even though she is not one usually.

Thankfully, most of the culprits do use a trick or code to excite him, in contrast to a very simple one in [[The Secret of the High Sales]], which was solved by 3 real first grade children. He even stated at the end of that case, "His brain needs a smart culprit." Due to the simpleness of the culprit, he had a hard time with that case. That may explain why Haibara was uninvolved in that case, since she was aware 'the culprit' was too simple and unintellectual for Conan's level of complexity.

In fact, in [[Conan vs. Kaitou Kid]], he was bored at the talk of the thief, since "This is stupid. Thieves are boring.," and planned on going to bed, however as soon as they mentioned about a coded message of announcement, he was all ears. In fact. Even though he cracked the code at Beika Museum, in the daytime, he did not tell anyone else that they were far off the mark.

Instead, he snuck out at night in order to meet the Kid that night. Conan asked Agasa about tome information in his father's files, before meeting Kid, since he was fascinated to meet Kaito Kid, a "strange retro-thief, whose crazy enough to announce his moves."

Thankfully, there are some detectives and federal agents, where he can really show his intellectual stimuli, and this is done by them recognizing that he is the one really solving Kogoro's cases, and that he is a very smart child, even if they are unaware of who he really is:
[[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]]/[[Subaru Okiya]], [[James Black]], [[Miwako Sato]], [[Kansuke Yamato]], and [[Yui Uehara]], and even [[Wataru Takagi]], and the famous Shogi player, [[Shukichi Haneda]], an [[Black Organization|undercover]] [[Japanese Intelligence Agencies|Federal Agent]], [[Rei Furuya]].

It is hard to say if he can even hide his intellect and thirst for it from [[Hyoue Kuroda]], a [[Rum]] Contender, due to the fact that before their [[Kawanakajima Murder Case|first case]], Kuroda had already allowed it to be known that he was aware of Conan's deductive intelligence, by his introduction of Conan, 'The Brain behind Sleeping Kogoro' and say that Conan has a ability to crack cases by seeing what no one else does. Conan Edogawa, Detective," in front of the Nagano Policemen present. In [[Mystery of the Burning Tent]], he refers to Conan as "Sleeping Kogoro's Bag of Wisdom" to both: Ninzaburo Shiratori and Inspector Yuminaga.

As much as Conan may want to hide his intellect from Hyoue Kuroda, until he deduces Rum's identity, it may not be possible.
After all, in a case, Kuroda did tell Takagi and Megure to do whatever Conan says, and in another case, he did instruct Bourbon to answer all of Conan's questions about the case, when he realized that Conan is also investigating this case too.

=== First aid ===
Conan has repeatedly dispensed first aid to stabbed/shot/cardiac/poisoned/hurt victims before the rescuers arrive.

In [[A June Bride Murder Case]], In the manga, Conan rinses out Miss Matsumoto's mouth out with milk after he sees her collapsing, in an effort to neutralize the poison in her body. It is later stated that this bit of first aid may have been the reason to why Miss Matsumoto was discharged from the hospital sooner than anticipated. These parts are cut from the anime entirely.

In [[Scuba Diving Murder Case]], after a woman had suffered a snake bite from a water snake, Conan immediately grabbed a glass of ice tea, and gave it to those sucking out the poison, and treating her.

Although Kogoro had no knowledge of any of this, Eri told him, "Ice Tea has Tannin. The first thing to do in the case of a snake bite... is to make use of the Tannin component in tea to clean the wound and alleviate the poison." While Kogoro is flabbergasted that Conan is aware of what to do in a snake bite, Eri states, "That boy is quite sharp. Compared to people like us, sitting here with our arms folded, he's much more of an asset. More importantly, the ex-policeman here doesn't seem to know a thing about this."

In [[The Celebrities' Secret]], is the first case that does go more into detail about Conan's first aid skills, such as giving sugar sticks to a person who attempted suicide with a hypoglycemic drug, which is used to treat Diabetes. The other case that showed his first aid skills was in Scuba Diving Murder Case, when he quickly grabbed a glass of ice tea, due to the needed Tannin, in order to combat the poisonous snake bite. In the other case, he handed the tea to the rescuers, however in this case, he began administering it himself.

In all three cases, the person survived, due to his first aid knowledge and skills.

However, this is just three of the cases that showcases it, or two in the anime.

=== Stamina ===
It is hard to say about his stamina, since he was shrunk down to Conan.
It obviously is not as good, when he is in his 17 year old body, since he now has the body of a 7 year old.

Without Agasa's gadgets, His strength is also that of a 7 year old too, which includes his kicking strength as well.

However, he is a very active, and maybe hyperactive little kid, who frequently uses his feet and legs, whether running, kicking, and skateboarding around the town. So his feet and leg muscles are probably stronger than when he was first shrunk, but still..., he would be toast without the professor's Gadgets, and especcially his super kick shoes.

He probably has normal stamina for a little kid, although some of the feats, and esp. in non-cannon movies, may seem to exaggerate his stamina, but even in the scene when Ran was pushed in front of a moving train, and Conan immediately jumped down, grabbed her, and dragged her to safety, he was panting afterwards.

=== Music ===
[[File:Conan singing.JPG|thumb|right|200px|Conan sings in the Karaoke.]]
Conan cannot sing on key in the slightest so he is often accused of being [[Wikipedia:tone deaf|tone deaf]]. Despite being a hilariously awful singer, Conan has [[Wikipedia:perfect pitch|perfect pitch]] and can identify notes accurately even in difficult contexts like the sound of phone button presses forming a melody. In Episode 11: The Moonlight Sonata Murder Case, he knows that the piano is in tune and deciphers a message at the end just by listening to the notes that are played. Haibara directly described Shinichi Kudo as having perfect pitch in the last scenes of the twelfth Detective Conan movie, [[Full Score of Fear]]. He also manages to replicate and sing dial tones for a phone, showing that the reason he can't sing is because he simply doesn't have ''relative'' pitch. In File 728 (Episode 614), Conan stated he isn't very knowledgeable about music but identified the untuned piano key whereupon Haibara joked about his sharp ears despite being tone-deaf.

Also, to be like his favorite detective, Sherlock Holmes, he plays the violin. This was confirmed in movie 12 of the 'Full Score of Fear' when he played "Amazing Grace" for Ran. However, he is stumped on what Ran meant when she said, "He has a funny habit when he plays."

=== Bomb defusion ===
Conan can defuse a bomb effortlessly without external instruction. This has been demonstrated once in canon, and multiple times in movies.

In The Trembling Police Headquarters: 12 Million Hostages Episode 304, when Conan was in the area with the bomb, which only he could reach, while the Bomb squad was trying to determine the kind of bomb that Conan is with, so that they can give the little boy instructions in how to disarm the bomb.

He had already began disarming it, and only stopped, when he realized if he waited until 3 seconds before the detonation, he will receive a hint as to the location of another bomb, so he hesitated, and discovered that it was Teitan High School, with the letters E-V-I-T. He also managed to disarm it before it blew up.

=== Criminal psychology ===
Conan shows a keen understanding for criminal psychology, occasionally being able to sense if someone is the true criminal. He can also predict movement and plan of the criminals, and in some cases, he used this skill to "bluff". By deliberately giving wrong deduction, he managed to make the criminal reveal the key evidence of the case, confess, abandon suicide's attempt, or lead them to the wrong ends (if they are chasing Conan).

In non canon, it was shown that if the criminal doesn't conform to the general intellectual pattern, Conan will have trouble deducing their crime, even if it is so obvious that the Detective Boys can deduce perfectly.

[[File:Conan First met Kaito Kid.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan introduces himself to Kaito Kid when they first met. "Conan Edogawa, a detective!" in [[Episode One: The Great Detective Turned Small|Episode One]].]]

=== Reverse Psychology ===
In the Clash of Red and Black Arc, he planned along with Shuichi how to replace Kir ack undercover in the Black Organization, without telling the rest of the FBI until it was over, however he did have to outhink Gin.

He really had to outthink Gin, and implement Reverse Psychology, if not Reverse Reverse Psychology when planning Akai's Faked death at Railla Pass.

They knew that Kir would have to prove herself by killing Akai, and that Gin always kills with headshots, so he would demand that of her.

He also knew it would be at Railla Pass, and used Kusada's body, thanks to that spy shooting himself in the head and commiting suicide.

He also knew since Kusada had already touched his phone, make it look to the other FBI Members that Akai touched Conan's phone, but Akai had some substance to keep his fingerprints off of it entirely.

In short, Conan had to predict what Gin would demand and where at, along with Kir and Akai, and at the same time, making Gin think that it is all "his own idea."

The only ones allowed in on the following secrets:

Placing Kir back undercover:
Conan, who planned it
Akai
Kir
Andre Camel, who had to drive her.

The other FBI members did not find out until she was placed back undercover, otherwise, they may have given the act away.

Akai's Faked Death:
Conan, who planned it, and even arranged Akai to meet his Mom and Agasa somewhere else to help his new disguise.
Kir, who was to kill him in order to prove herself to Gin
Akai, who was to die
James Black, who noticed the glue or substance to Akai's fingertips, just prior to the fateful meeting.

No one else was let in on that secret at all, until the scarlet episodes, when Jodie and Camel finally learned about it, including Bourbon, who figured it out due to his own keen observation skills.

=== "7 Children" or "[[Nanatsu no Ko]]" Alertness ===
This can also be called the Boss's E-Mail Address Alertness as well.

After Conan's confrontation with Vermouth, when he appeared to still be unconscious from his own tranquilizer dart, he heard her press the digits on her cell phone in order to reply to "BOSS" of the Black Organization at the end of Head to Head Halloween Party episode.

He remembered the sounds of the digits being pressed when she was dialing the boss's e-mail address in order to respond to a message that he had sent her.

Conan may be tone deaf, but he does have Perfect Pitch and can recognize the tune of the Boss's e-mail address.

At the end of The Dissonance of the Stradivarius Episode 387, he found out those digits are for the song of "7 Children" or "Nanatsu no Ko," which happens to the the Boss of the Black Organization's E-mail address.

He can recognize that tune in an instant, and immediately is on the hunt for the Black Organization Member, who just e-mailed their Boss.
He cannot even pretend to act normally when he hears this tune.

Even just the first four digits place him on high alert, before he discovered the name of the tune.

Even though Haibara stated that the e-mail address is a Pandora Box, which should never be opened, or dialed.

Since he can recognize the Boss's e-mail immediately, which has shown a number of times:

After his bug and transmitter, accidentally fell on the ground, and Rena stepped on it, he immediately heard her dial the Boss's e-mail address, and found out her code name of Kir, among other stuff.

That tune also came in handy at finding out that a Black Organization Spy had infiltrated Haido Central Hospital, where Kir was hospitalized due to the e-mail being dialed.

Even in the Non-cannon movie: The Raven Chaser, after Conan found out that the Boss's E-mailed had been dialed, he immediatley chased after a disguised Vermouth, and saw her enter Gin's Porsch. Unfortunately, Irish, another disguised Black Organization Member, who was impersonating the Superintendant Kiyonaga Matsumoto, noticed Conan's behavior, and immediately began investigating Conan, and he even managed to obtain Conan's fingerprints and match them to Kudo Shinichi's fingerprints, when he held that mask and helmet in the Desperate Revival Festival, earlier.
He may not have noticed, if it was not for the Panic Mode or Near Panic Mode that this number and song instills in Conan.

=== Computer skills ===
Conan has some programming skills, for being able to create Mouri Detective Agency's website. He doesn't have the knowledge of hacking, at least he is not able to crack Black Organization's encrypted data.

=== Kaitou Kid radar ===
Conan occasionally seems to be able to sense if [[Kaitou Kid]] is present at a crime scene.<ref>Black Star</ref><ref>Luna Memoria File 964 page 10</ref> Unlike [[Shiho Miyano#"Black Organization sense"|Haibara's "Black Organization smell" sense]], Conan's Kid detector isn't very reliable.

=== Codebreaker and Codewriter ===
He is great at discovering codes, as well as deciphering them.

He frequently is able to deciphering Kid's codes, among many others.
In the paper airplane episode, Subaru and Conan, both managed to decipher the aiplanes' codes at about the same time.
In The Trembling Police Headquarters: 12 Million Hostages Episode 304, he was also able to decipher from E-V-I-T, that the next bomb was Teitan High School.

He has even been shown to be able to write codes as well.

In Sweet and Cold Delivery Service, when Conan, Haibara, Mitsuhiko, Genta, and Ayumi, were locked in a freezing delivery van, without their cell phones, and all they had on hand were some odds and ends, taxi receipt, and Tails, the cat,.

Conan managed to create a code out of the Taxi Receipt, which would look like trash to almost everyone, except the only person, who would be able to decipher it in an instant, BOURBON, who works at Cafe Poirot, and Tails makes his stop there everyday at around this time. The code basically read, COR...P..SE," and the license plate number.

He then placed the note in Tails' collar, who managed to escape. However, when Azusa was about to hand the note to Amuro, it blew away in the wind, only for Bourbon to find out the spelling from Azusa, and pieced together instantly, "Corpse." After Azusa stated that Conan knows the cat comes here everyday, he took the rest of the day off work to track the note using his Wind App, taking into account the location of building.

While Amuro was still tracking that note, the kids were getting in even worse shape, since they are freezing, and most likely none of Conan's gadgets would work.

Conan remembered the cake that Agasa ordered for a delivery at a special time, located it, and wrote a message to redirect the cake to the Kudo Residence, where Subaru is living, and redirected it, "In care of Mr Kudu," and even added a message in the customer's copy of the receipt so that Subaru would know that they are trapped in the delivery van.

Subaru sent a package, which was really a cell phone to help the kids, and ... It is a good thing that Amuro managed to track the delivery van, but he simply acted like he was passing by, and told the kids that the wind blew away their message.

After disabling the culprits, Conan was able to use that phone to call the police.

== Appellations ==
Although most people will call Conan by his name suffixed with ''-kun'', or simply ''kid'', a lot of the characters have different ways of calling him due to the special relationships they share. The following is a list of the different appellations for Conan (and the ones Conan gives in return) encountered in the series.

== Plot overview ==
=== Initial pursuit ===
After Shinichi becomes Conan, he sets out to find the men in black almost immediately. At the suggestion of Agasa, he moves in with Ran and Kogoro, hoping that cases related to them come by. Pretty soon, a case involving a woman name [[Akemi Miyano]] (using the alias Masami Hirota) appears. Akemi robs a bank for the men in black in the hopes that they will free her sister from their organization. Conan is unable to realize the case's connection to the organization until after the men in black have shot Akemi and left her for dead rather than give up such a valuable asset as her sister. In her dying moments, Akemi warns Conan of the danger of the organization.<ref>[[Volume 2#File 013 - The Missing Man|Volume 2, Files 13-16: "The Missing Man"]]</ref>

Conan runs across the men in black again on a bullet train, this time learning their codenames: [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]].

At a game convention, Conan meets a third man in black named [[Tequila]], only to have him die in an explosion meant for someone else. Conan learns about a meeting place from the murderer, but just before he reaches the bar an explosion set by the men in black destroys the place entirely, leaving Conan without any leads.

=== Introduction of Ai Haibara===
Later on, Conan meets child-size biochemist [[Ai Haibara]], the creator of [[APTX 4869]]. Ai grew up within the Black Organization as [[Shiho Miyano]] and is a former member of it along with her deceased sister, Akemi.<ref name="f178">[[Volume_18#File 178 - Code Name Sherry|Volume 18, File 178: "Code Name Sherry"]]</ref> After Akemi died, Shiho refused to keep working and took APTX 4869 to die before the Black Organization could execute her. Instead, she shrinks like Conan did and is adopted by Agasa so she and Conan can work together to find a cure and catch the men in black.

However, when she really introduced herself to him at night in front of the Kudo and Agasa's house, she did it in a way, where she showed that she can be quite evil, like the rest of the Black Organization, even telling him that Agasa, who is his lifeline to being a detective in his child's body is dead, really freaking him out. When he went to Agasa, he was alive and well, and all three spoke, but ...

After the professor case, he saw her real tears, when she was crying in his shirt, and since then their relationship has improved dramatically, and they even protect each other.

She is also helping him to be more cautious than his initial, "The Black Organization is involved. I am scared, but I will hunt them down, and try and get the antidote," without thinking of the consequences.

He is still determined to take down that organization, but he is now wiser than he was at in, whereas, she is more inclined to err on the side of caution, "Stop. Don't Go. Stay out of this," which will not take the organization down, but may keep them safer.

In regards toe the Black Organization, they both have a tendency to withhold information in order to protect the other one.
It is difficult to know just how much she knows of the Organization's leaders and such, but she feels if she tells him anything, until it comes up, he may carelessly act on it.

When Conan found out that 7 children was the Boss's e-mail address, his initial thought was to have Takagi investigate it, until she told him that "He will die. Takagi as soon as he reaches that person, and then they will find out who gave him that number, and you will die next.
The e-mail address is a Pandora's box that should never be opened.

In return, Conan protects her a lot in regards to the organization: saving her life, withholding risky information, and coming up with plans to save her life, when she has been found out, and trying to hide her from them.

=== Meeting with the Black Organization ===
In [[Reunion with the Black Organization]] Conan and Haibara crossed paths with them at an hotel party while they were trying to prevent someone from dying at the hands of the organization. While there Haibara is kidnapped by one of the members of the organization [[Pisco]]. Conan manages to save Haibara and also learn about [[Anokata]]

=== After Vermouth ===

=== The Phone Number of 'That Person' ===
After Conan solves a [[The Dissonance of the Stradivarius#Postlude|case]] of serial murders, the [[Kyosuke Haga#Friends and acquaintances|culprit]] tells Conan that the tune created by dialing the phone number for the Leader of the Black Organization is the song "[[Seven Children]]".

=== Returning Back to Shinichi ===
Throughout the series Conan has returned back to Shinichi several times, but never permanently.
==== East versus West Detective ====
First he temporary returns to normal after drinking alcohol while infected with a cold.<ref>[[Diplomat Murder Case|Episodes 48-49: Diplomat Murder Case]].</ref>
He quickly turns back into Conan after solving the case and develops an immunity to the alcohol.

==== Desperate revival ====
{{Main|Prototype antidote}}
Haibara invented an [[Prototype antidote|antidote]] prototype for the APTX 4869, and Conan first uses it in [[Volume 26]] to conceal his identity and allay Ran's suspicions that he is Shinichi. Haibara disguises as Conan and appears in front of Ran with Shinichi in order to put Ran's fears to rest.<ref>[[The Desperate Revival|Episodes 191-193: The Desperate Revival]].</ref><ref>[[Volume 26#File 256 - Concealed Truth|Volume 26, Files 256-258: "Concealed Truth"]]</ref>

==== Shiragami case ====
The antidote prototype is again taken, this time accidentally in place of cough syrup. It wears off 24 hours later, with Haibara giving him another one to protect his identity. This time it wears off in a shortened 4 hours, once again interrupting his chance to confess his feelings to Ran.<ref>[[Volume 62#File 647 - The Lost Memory|Volumes 62-63, Files 647-654: "The Lost Memory"]]</ref>

==== London Arc ====
During the Holmes' Revelation arc in London, Conan takes an antidote so he can go overseas, because "Conan Edogawa" does not exist in real life, and has no passport. Ran quickly deduces that Shinichi is in London as well. She asks some Londoners about a Japanese boy, and they give her directions, without specifying it was actually a six-year-old they saw. In a phone booth, Conan takes the pill originally meant for his return trip to Tokyo in order to conceal his identity from Ran. During this time, he manages to confess his feelings to her. Luckily for Conan, Haibara asks Yusaku and Yukiko Kudo, his parents, to go to London and give him a third pill, as she guessed he would have used his spare one for Ran.<ref>[[Holmes' Revelation|Episode 616-621]]</ref><ref>[[Volume 71#Following Holmes|Volume 71, Files 743-751]]</ref><ref>[[Volume 72#Following Holmes|Volume 72, File 752]]</ref>

== Non-canon plot overview ==

== Relationships analysis ==
=== Family and friends ===
==== Ran Mouri ====
[[File:Ran and Conan.jpg|thumb|200px|Ran holding Conan.]]
{{main|Shinichi Kudo and Ran Mouri}}
Although they are romantic interests as Shinichi and Ran, Conan and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] share a brother/sister kind of relationship. Ran plays a nurturing protective role and treats Conan like a child version of Shinichi. They do a lot of activities together, such as swimming, going to the movies or festivals, and more. Ran and Conan both look out for each other's well-being. Ran stands up for Conan during Kogoro's outbursts and destroys any criminals seeking to inflict harm on Conan with her karate. Conan lends an ear and advice when Ran is in an difficult situation or needs to vent, and he comforts and encourages her when she is feeling down, especially about Shinichi being away for so long. It is even likely that Ran subconsciously knows that Conan actually ''is'' Shinichi, even though she seems reluctant to follow that notion.<ref>Ran told Conan that if only he is Shinichi on Episode 308.</ref>
{{clearright}}

==== Kogoro Mouri ====
[[File:Kogoro noticing Conan in the car.jpg|thumb|200px|Kogoro noticing Conan in the car.]]
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] and Conan most often see each other as nuisances. Conan dislikes Kogoro's usually poor detective ability and case handling, slovenly personal habits, and overinflated ego. Kogoro's deduction doesn't seem to improve so Conan almost always needs to knock Kogoro out when he starts spouting off incorrect theories. Although in most cases Conan merely sees Kogoro as a drunk idiot, he often is impressed when Kogoro gets serious and actually gets the case right, so he will allow the "non-sleeping Kogoro" to take the spotlight. Kogoro views Conan as a freeloader who constantly gets underfoot and never fails to insinuate himself at cases, "interfere" with the scene, and pipe up with childish observations that consistently ruin Kogoro's deductions. Sometimes, Kogoro will also grab Conan by the jacket, leave him outside, or knock him on the head if he is too nosy when involved in a case. However, their relationship is actually intimate and Kogoro takes care of Conan just like a member of the house. At times when Conan is in danger or his life is in peril, Kogoro is seen to be visibly distressed, focused only on getting Conan back. In one episode where Conan was kidnapped, put into a car, and the car was in the process of being crushed, Kogoro was even in tears at Conan's apparent death but then rejoiced tearfully when he was shown to be unharmed.
Conan in return does everything in his power to protect Kogoro from getting into troubles with the Black Organization, saving his life multiple times whenever Kogoro unknowingly gets involved with them.
They are usually seen going to cases together (probably because Conan sneaks along with Kogoro, inserts himself into the case, or simply annoys Kogoro enough to bring him) and sometimes they'll follow Ran whenever they think she might be off to see a boy or "that detective brat" as Kogoro refers to Shinichi.

==== Yusaku and Yukiko Kudo ====
[[File:783-2.jpg|thumb|200px|Yukiko nearly calls Conan "Shinichi" in public]]
Conan's parents, [[Yusaku Kudo|Yusaku]] and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]], like to push their child towards becoming an even better detective. They enjoy giving him challenges, typically without letting Conan know who's giving them; once they disguised as Black Organization operatives trying to kill Shinichi Kudo in order to show Conan how dangerous his goals are. However after seeing that their son is determent to dive into the matter, they decide to follow his wish, and even helps him out with disguises and plans.

Yukiko loves to meddle in Conan's (and Shinichi's) love life, as she will often make allusions regarding Ran being her possible future daughter-in-law and Ai or Ayumi having feelings for Conan. He doesn't usually pay much attention to them. Once she told Conan that Ai has romantic feelings for him because she looked at him ten times in a short span of time, saying that the only time a girl would do that is if she likes the boy or the boy has something on his face. Conan simply pushes it off as Ai checking on her "lab mouse," but at night, in bed, Conan asks Ai if he has something on his face.

Yukiko helped him out once to keep his secret identity from being exposed to Ran by creating an alibi for him. Yukiko once nearly called Conan "Shinichi" in public but Conan was able to cover it by creating a distraction.
{{clearright}}

==== Hiroshi Agasa ====
[[image:Agasa and Conan investigating.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan investigates with Agasa.]]
Conan treats [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]] as a member of his own family, like an uncle. Due to the fact that they both share the secret behind Shinichi's transformation and knowledge about the Black Organization, Conan often comes to him when in trouble or seeking for help. Agasa's willingness to help whenever possible makes Shinichi's life as Conan more convenient. He was the one who created most of Conan's gadgets, including his power shoes and tracking glasses. He willingly plays Conan's case solving mouthpiece when Conan lacks someone else convenient to use. When Conan needs something, such as information regarding past cases, he usually asks Agasa to get it. Agasa often acts as a chauffeur because he is trustworthy and the only adult with a car regularly available.

Agasa often worries about Shinichi, especially when he thinks Shinichi might be getting over his head. Agasa almost always responds positively to Shinichi's requests, but doesn't like it when Shinichi hides the reasons for it, especially if it is dangerous.
{{clearright}}

==== "Shinichi Kudo" ====
[[File:EP398 2.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan and Shinichi.]]
They never meet each other for obvious reasons: Conan is Shinichi's secret identity. However, since Conan tries to act as a child, he often thinks Shinichi as a separate character (in one episode, when Ran claims to go to a date with Shinichi, Conan bids goodbye, oblivious for a while that he is actually Shinichi). Judging from his completely made up speech, Conan talks to Shinichi frequently by phone and learns a lot of skills and knowledge from him, and Conan really admires and loves Shinichi. In turn, Shinichi is willing to satiate Conan's curiosity, but at one point he gets really annoyed for Conan's inquisitiveness.

==== Heiji Hattori ====
[[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]
When they first meet, Conan and [[Heiji Hattori|Heiji]] seem bound to become lifelong rivals, especially after Kudo beats Heiji in their first case. However, after discovering Conan's real identity, Heiji starts to act like an older brother towards him, much to the annoyance of Conan. Since then, the two have become closest friends, and consult one another on cases, developments concerning the Black Organization, and even their "girlfriends". They tend to stick together on cases, although sometimes this is because Heiji forces the less enthusiastic Conan to come along. While fond of Heiji as a fellow detective he can relate to, Conan finds Heiji's antics occasionally annoying. Much to Conan's chagrin, Heiji even convinces others that Conan is his disciple. Conan especially dislikes Heiji's dangerous habit of unthinkingly calling Conan 'Kudo' when others are present.

Heiji still maintains some of his original feelings of rivalry, and gets annoyed if anyone claims Shinichi is better , and will often go to great lengths to show that the "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. Despite his teasing, Conan/Shinichi genuinely thinks Kazuha and Heiji would make a great couple.
{{clearright}}

==== Sonoko Suzuki ====
She frequently talks to him like a brat and primary school kid, and he thinks of her as annoying.

==== Masumi Sera ====
Masumi Sera is like an older sister figure to Conan. She knows that Conan is actually Shinichi Kudo. She is a mystery but is revealed to be the sister of Shuichi Akai and Shukichi Haneda. Conan takes Sera to be like a fellow detective, similar to how he treats Heiji and Saguru. Sera in return, is very protective of him and also seems to have a crush on him, calling him a "wizard"; because when they first met 10 years ago, Shinichi/Conan was able to make her brother Shuichi laugh when she couldn't.

==== Eisuke Hondou ====
Eisuke discovered that Conan is the real Sleeping Kogoro before they even first met. Conan found him suspicious due to his resemblance of Rena Mizunashi. Eisuke was quick to notice that Conan's behavior towards Ran was similar to that of a protective boyfriend and decided to monitor him. Eventually, Conan found that he is the younger brother of Rena who is a member of CIA infiltrating the organization, the relationship between the two seems to have improved somehow after Conan reveals his identity to Eisuke without hesitating refusing his offer to take Ran with him in America. At that moment, Eisuke confesses to Conan in an amicable way that he was aware from the beginning that he was sleeping Kogoro and Shinichi Kudo. He asked Conan to take care of Ran and the two leave on good terms.

==== Shukichi Haneda ====
Shukichi seems to have noticed Conan's intelligence and trusted his deductions the first time they met. Shinichi has met Shukichi in the past as a child, so it's possible that Shukichi might recognize him as Conan because of his memorization skills, and also due to Shukichi calling Conan a Wizard, the same nickname that Masumi attributed to Shinichi when they met 10 years ago.

=== Detective Boys ===
[[File:Conan and Ai.jpg|thumb|200px|Conan and Haibara investigating]]
[[File:conan scary face.png|thumb|left|200px|Conan's scary face when he's intending to know Haibara's secret song]]
==== Ai Haibara ====
{{main|Conan Edogawa and Ai Haibara}}
Both are de-aged by APTX4869 and have almost equal levels of intelligence, which makes [[Ai Haibara]] and Conan close confidants and more empathetic with each other than most other characters. They share an interesting relationship. They believe and rely on each other. She certainly has no qualms about teasing him, and is more than willing to poke a hole in his ego. While Conan initially was disgusted by Ai's ties to the Black Organization, especially with how she introduced herself, seeing her remorse and pain has improved his opinion of her. He is repeatedly protective of her and tries to give her hope when her fear of the men in black is overwhelming.

However, when she really introduced herself to him at night in front of the [[Kudo]] and [[Agasa|Agasa's]] house, she did it in a way, where she showed that she can be quite evil, like the rest of the [[Black Organization]], even telling him that Agasa, who is his lifeline to being a detective in his child's body is dead, really freaking him out. When he went to Agasa, he was alive and well, and all three spoke, but ...

After the professor case, he saw her real tears, when she was crying in his shirt, and since then their relationship has improved dramatically, and they even protect each other.

She is also helping him to be more cautious than his initial, "The Black Organization is involved. I am scared, but I will hunt them down, and try and get the antidote," without thinking of the consequences.

He is still determined to take down that organization, but he is now wiser than he was at in, whereas, she is more inclined to err on the side of caution, "Stop. Don't Go. Stay out of this," which will not take the organization down, but may keep them safer.

In regards toe the Black Organization, they both have a tendency to withhold information in order to protect the other one.
It is difficult to know just how much she knows of the Organization's leaders and such, but she feels if she tells him anything, until it comes up, he may carelessly act on it.

When Conan found out that [[Nanatsu no Ko|7 children]] was the [[Boss]]'s e-mail address, his initial thought was to have [[Takagi]] investigate it, until she told him that "He will die. Takagi as soon as he reaches that person, and then they will find out who gave him that number, and you will die next.
The e-mail address is a Pandora's box that should never be opened.

In return, Conan protects her a lot in regards to the organization: saving her life, withholding risky information, and coming up with plans to save her life, when she has been found out, and trying to hide her from them.

==== Ayumi Yoshida ====
[[File:759-3.png|thumb|200px|Sonoko is teasing Conan about Ayumi]]
{{main|Conan Edogawa and Ayumi Yoshida}}
Conan grows to respect the little girl in his class for her sharp wit and observational skills, along with the other members of the [[Detective Boys]]. [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]] in turn clearly seems to like Conan and isn't aware that the other two Detective Boys are jealous of him because of this. Sonoko is also thinking the same after Sera teased Conan about the girl he likes.

==== Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya and Genta Kojima ====
[[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]] sees Conan as a role model, someone he looks up to. [[Genta Kojima|Genta]], and more so Mitsuhiko, are often impressed by Conan's vast knowledge and incredible deduction skills. However, they both become quite jealous of Conan whenever Ayumi shows gestures of affection towards him (usually a small kiss on the cheek). While Conan initially only tolerated their presence, he has grown fond of them despite their relative immaturity.
In a case, where Genta's father was a suspect, Conan decided to solve the case without telling the other, because he didn't want Genta to worry about his father being a suspect for murder.

=== Law enforcement ===
==== Police ====
[[File:Megure and Conan Relationship.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Megure waffles between treating Conan like a child and a detective]]
With the exception of a few inspectors, most listen to the little clues that Conan points out. After a while, Conan gets the attention of the whole Tokyo police department for noticing things even pros miss. [[Wataru Takagi]] in particular has taken to trusting Conan completely and doing whatever Conan asks him to without hesitation. Even [[Sato]] also treats him more like a detective.

In fact, even when Takagi is hesitant to do what Conan asks of him, as soon as Sato hears Conan's name, she immediately will take action or give him information sometimes.

After [[Hyoue Kuroda]] became the superintendent of the Tokyo Prefecture, he has told Takagi and [[Megure]] to do what Conan asks of them in the [[The Actress Blogger's Locked Room Case|Actress Blogger Case]].

He even periodically referrs to Conan as "Sleeping Kogoro's Bag of Wisdom" in front of the other police officers, such as: Nagano Police Prefecture Officers, [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] and Inspector [[Yuminaga]], as well as Bourbon, who he instructed to answer all of Conan's questions, when he realized that Conan was also investigating the case of [[The Target is the Metropolitan Police Traffic Department]].

==== Wataru Takagi ====
Wataru Takagi is the only police officer who has come the closest to finding out about [[Conan]]'s identity.

In [[Episode 258|The Man From Chicago]], When Conan is telling the police officers present about the Panda colors of the Police Cars, and that the younger generation may not know this information about their black and white cars, Takagi asks himself, "What generation is this kid from?"

In episode 304 ,while they waited for the elevator bomb's clock to run down to give the final clue to stop the greater crime. Takagi asked Conan about his real identity to which Conan answered that he would in the afterlife.

He also is aware of Conan's sharp intelligence and takes him seriously so as to take him for questioning the suspects. He trusts Conan so much that he would take him seriously.

Takagi has also come to acknowledge Conan's sharp mind and intellect, taking Conan's observations seriously and even allowing him to accompany him to question suspects, most notably during the New Scar and the Whistling Man Case where he has the rest of the Detective Boys remain in the car.

Conan also fully supports Takagi's relationship with Sato, at one point orchestrated a plan to foil [[Shiratori]]'s attempt of an arranged marriage with [[Sato]]. When asked for reasons, he didn't answer, but quietly relate the experience with Ran's relationship.

==== Miwako Sato ====
[[File:EP424 5.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Miwako and Conan during a case Investigation]]

She had developed deep trust of Conan and his intelligence from her real first time investigating with him, and seeing him in action in the case of [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story]].

Even when Takagi is hesitant to do as Conan says, unquestioningly, she will immediately and unhesitantly do as he says, almost all of the time, since she first met him.

==== Kansuke Yamato ====
Kansuke is one of the few police officers, who Conan can actually talk like an adult in front of.

In [[A Dangerous Party of Two]], he even told [[Yui Uehara|Yui]] Uehara that he suspects Conan of being "the one leading everything," in regards to [[Kogoro|Kogoro's]] cases, and that is after only after they met up in one case so far.

In fact, in that car ride, they were giving [[Agasa]] and [[Haibara]] a lift back to Tokyo, but he really kept taking in a Nagano dialect, using phrases that terrified Haibara, such as "Half-Kill" and "Over-Kill, which dealt with a kind of Mochi, and not what Agasa and Haibara were thinking of."

The reason why he and Yui were heading to Tokyo was to enlist Kogoro's help with the Red Wall Case, which Yui told Conan that it was really his help they were wanting.

After hearing the discription of [[Rum|RUM]], he is concerned, he is even more aware of his one-eyed state, which is is the common description in all of Rum's descriptions.

In an episode, when one of the girls referred to Yamato of the Nagano, he though of the Rum Description, and how it applies to him, but quickly dismissed it.

The very next time that he saw Kansuke, he again was inspecting him, while thinking of Rum's Descriptions, however that really did not last any longer, esp. after Conan say Karoda, His older, bigger, scarier, one-eyed, Nagano boss, who happens to like tea. Even Kansuke says, "[[Kuroda Hyoe|Kuroda]] looks like the boss of some organization."

==== Hyoue Kuroda ====
[[Kuroda]] is aware how good Conan is as a detective, calling him " Sleeping Kogoro's bag of wisdom", he also trusts his deductions and have already ordered the Tokyo police to follow Conan's Instructions.

On the other hand, Conan is suspicious of Kuroda because he almost matches [[Rum]]'s description, he also became shocked that Kuroda became the Superintendent of Tokyo Police in [[Matsumoto]]'s place.

In [[Kawanakajima Murder Case]], which was his first appearance, he already knew that Conan was 'The Brain behind Sleeping Kogoro,' and stated an entire dialogue stating his knowledge of Edogawa Conan in front of the Nagano Police Officers present, in his first speech to Conan.

In [[Mystery of the Burning Tent|Mystery of the Burning Tent ]], He refers to Conan as "Sleeping Kogoro's Bag of Wisdom" to both: [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] and [[Inspector Yuminaga]].

In [[The Target is the Metropolitan Police Traffic Department]], he also instructed [[Bourbon]] to answer all of Conan's questions, when he realized that Conan was also investigating the case as well.

=== FBI ===
The FBI contains most of the few people that Conan acts normally around despite them not knowing his identity. Conan seems to place trust in the FBI, and occasionally helps in their operations.

==== Jodie Starling ====
[[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] nicknamed Conan "Cool Kid" and Conan (despite being wary when he first met her) now places complete trust in Jodie. Jodie has also called Conan to share what would normally be classified information, notifying him of a new Black Organization member, Bourbon.

==== Shuichi Akai/Subaru Okiya ====
[[File:The Scarlet Return-Shuichi and Conan.jpg|right|thumb|200px|Shuichi and Conan ([[The Scarlet Return|Ep. 782]])]]
[[Shuichi Akai|Shuichi]] has been shown to respect Conan's detective skills. Together they hatched a plan to send Hidemi Hondou back into the organization and fake Akai's death. He has discovered that Conan and Shinichi are one and the same by spying on him in a [[Volume 77#File 814 - Conan-kun, Right?|recent plot line]]. Conan once says to Shuichi, "I'm glad you're an ally."

=== Black Organization ===
==== Gin and Vodka ====
Even though [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] do not yet know who's interfering with their operations, Gin has been shown to be curious who "that guy" is, referring to Conan. In the movie [[The Raven Chaser]], Gin tries to catch a glimpse of Conan's face from a helicopter, but fails when Conan successfully downs the helicopter. Conan seems to have a very bitter hatred towards them, and this only increases as more people are targeted by the Black Organization.

In [[Reunion with the Black Organization|Reunion of the Black Organization]], Gin had to shoot himself in the arm in order to stay awake, after he was shot with Conan's tranquilizer dart.
He also found Conan's bug and transmitter in his car, however due to a strand of [[Haibara Ai|Haibara's]] hair, he is convinced it was [[Shiho Miyano|Sherry]], who planted them.

In [[Contact with the Black Organization]], Gin told Vodka "You have to be always on guard. It seems there is Someone investigating about us, a Detective clever as a Fox," without being aware that it happens to apparently be a 7 year old little child.

In [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out ]], he found Conan's bug and transmitter on [[Kir|Kir's]] shoe, and immediately planned to exterminate [[Kogoro Mouri]], who he was convinced left the bug. When Conan kicked a soccer ball into the Detective Agency window, Gin decided to add another victim, the little kid. Thankfully, [[Akai]] made him think the bug and transmitter were planted by the FBI, which saved them both.

==== Vermouth ====
[[Vermouth]] seems to have great personal interest in Conan, referring to him as the Black Organization's 'Silver Bullet' and her "Cool Guy."

She also protects Conan, probably because when she was disguising as a serial killer in New York she was saved by Conan (Shinichi at the time) and Ran.

When the Organization plans on killing [[Kogoro]], and later Conan, she strongly objects to a degree where Gin suspects whether Kogoro is related to Vermouth.

Because of this, Conan does not react strongly when she is mentioned, as opposed to [[Haibara]]. He also seems to consider her less of a threat than the other members because he is able to bargain with her about Haibara and knows Vermouth is keeping his secret for personal reasons.

In [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|Head-to Head]], After Conan removed his Haibara mask, he was distracted, when Haibara showed up on the scene, which gave Vermouth the needed opening to use his stun gun wrist watch on him, to place him to sleep, before gently sitting him down beside the car, so he does not get hurt in the fall.

She also destroyed the box that he was connected to by many wires, so as not to possibly accidentally kill or hurt him, which pulling out the wires would have, according to Conan.

After she used sleeping gas, in order to knock him back out, so that she can escape, and not lead the Black Organization members to him.

She even covered the sleeping boy up with her coat, so that he would not get sick, since she had literally cut his shirt wide open, in order to see the wires and connected box, which may have made him sick, if he is not found right away, since it is pretty cold, and colds are spreading at this time.

She shot herself in the leg, and had to hobble some distance away from the car, so that he would remain out of sight, and no where around her, when Gin came to pick her up.

In [[the Raven Chaser]], she even provided Conan with the name of [[Irish]], and gave him a little bit of information of why the Organization is interested in this serial murder case.

In [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|Black Impact]], when she was speaking on the cell phone to [[Gin]], she mentioned hearing noise, and then she thought that Conan may have had something to do with the noise coming from Gin's car, and when Gin asked about what noise, she quickly "Never mind. It is nothing," in order to protect Conan.

==== Bourbon ====
[[Rei Furuya|Tooru Amuro]] (codenamed Bourbon) has attached himself to the [[Mouri Detective Agency]] as [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]]'s "apprentice". Conan initially treats him in a somewhat friendly manner, though he privately thinks "another annoying person's showed up" when he learns Amuro will be joining Kogoro on cases.

After learning of [[Episode 704|Amuro's membership in the Black Organization]], though, Conan has been relatively nervous about him being near [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].

This was made even worse in [[Conan in a Locked Room|Bourbon Figures it Out]], when Bourbon caught him attempting to tranquilize Kogoro, but due to Bourbon's attentiveness, he was unable to, and had to give hints to Kogoro instead, but ... Although Amuro may not have seen the trick, he became convinced that Conan was the puppeteer behind Sleeping Kogoro, and began investigating Conan, which only made Conan more nervous of him.

Conan's become more cautious and is somewhat confused by Amuro's helpful behavior, though he attempts to pretend nothing has changed unsuccessfully.

It does not help that at this period of time, Bourbon also began investigating the disappearance of Black Organization Spy [[Rikumichi Kusuda]], who went missing after becoming a patient at the [[Haido Central Hospital]], which may have been due to a disquised Bourbon placing a bug on Jodie in [[Jodie's Memories and the Cherry Blossom Viewing Trap]], when [[Jodie Starling|she]] is conversing with Conan, and they mentioned how Conan helped the FBI discover the identity of the Black Organization Spy, and he was close enough that he may have also picked up Conan revealing his identity of Bourbon to Jodie, and asking her to have the FBI investigate him, just prior to the bugging.

https://imgbox.com/porpWIfh

In the above picture at the shrine, when Conan was using [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]] for his deduction, Conan was standing behind Agasa. A disguised Bourbon was standing in front of the crowd, although he may have repositioned himself slightly to see Conan speaking behind a wide awake 'Lip syncing" Agasa.

He told [[Vermouth]] that Conan is a terrifying man.

In [[Kogoro in the Bar]] and [[Bathroom Where Ran Collapsed As Well]], Conan discovered that it must have been a disguised Bourbon and Vermouth, who was at the shrine along with him and Jodie, and he was literally in a panic mode for a bit.

His bond with Amuro later seemed to improve when he learns that Amuro is actually an undercover operative from Japanese Secret Police when the two exchange smiles in Café Poirot.<ref>[[Volume 85#File 897 - Scarlet Truth|Volumes 85, File 897: "Scarlet Truth"]]</ref>

By [[The Heartfelt Strap]], Conan trust Amuro enough that he actually used his Voice Changing Bow Tie in loudspeaker mode, in front of him at a beach.

As of [[The Unsolved Cocktail Case]], when Amuro broke into the Kudu home, so that he can find out information about [[Kudo Shinichi]], as ordered by [[Rum]], and had the altercation with an [[Akai Shuichi|unmasked Akai]], and both of [[Yusaku Kudo|Shinichi's]] [[Yukiko Kudo|parents]] turned on the light, so that the four of them can have a meeting. Currently, it is unknown what was discussed in that meeting, other than Conan planned it.

It seemed to become strained again in the movie: [[Zero the Enforcer]], however that is due to Amuro had his subordinate, [[Yuya Kazami]] of the [[Public Security Bureau|Japanese Secret Police- Public Security Bureau]], plant phony incriminating evidence against Kogoro Mouri for a bombing incident.

Conan even placed a bug on Kazami, and that bug was forcefully removed in front of him by Amuro.
It really appeared that Amuro was being a real thorn to Conan in that movie, although that was not Amuro's real intention at all.

That explosion could have been classified as an accident, which would have been impossible for the Public Security Bureau to investigate, so Amuro decided to give them a suspect. By involving Kogoro, he knew that Conan would begin investigating the explosion, which even he, himself would have a hard time investigating it himself, since he is a Black Organization Implant from the Japanese Secret Police Division-Public Security Bureau.

While Kogoro was still having legal problems, Amuro had Kazami get in contact with one of their lawyer collaborators for her to defend Kogoro, and get him off, not knowing that she hates the Public Security Bureau with a passion, and chose to betray them. In short, if the real culprit of the bombing was not found, Kogoro was not going to be getting off at all.

After a lot more appliances are going haywire, Conan came up with the fact that it is a IOT Terrorist Attack, and he even discovered the Culprit. Around this time, the Public Security Bureau allowed evidence to reach their prosecuter, that Mouri's computer may have been hacked, and he was released. (Considering the prosecuter knew it was planted in the first place, but they needed a suspect, however they also wanted to protect their suspect, which is why he was removed from the police station, and they chose to prosecute him almost as soon as he was arrested, so that they could move him to probably a more secure location.) Since they now know it is a terrorist attack, they no longer needed a phony suspect, so he was released from custody.

After Conan began his trek to meet up with the culprit, Amuro began following him, and they had a short talk, before Conan told him that he was on his way to meet the suspect.

Conan began skateboarding, followed by Amuro in his car. However, there was another IOT Terrorist attack, which affected cars and vehicles, which Amuro was caught up in. After his car did a stunt and stopped, he told Conan to continue on ahead.

However, in that movie, they both were each other's collaborators or cooperators at different times.
Amuro was Conan's when it came stopping a space shuttle thing heading back to the planet from crashing into where the Tokyo Metropolitan Headquarters, and later, where everyone was really being evacuated to.

At the end of the movie, he explained the reason that they framed Kogoro, and everything else, but the framing was so that Conan can do what he was unable to do, which is to investigate. This way, he was able to use Conan as a Collaborator, and to rely on his strength.

Although Conan stated, "You overestimate me, " it sound like their relationship is back on a positive note, before they headed opposite ways.

=== Others ===
==== Kaitou Kid ====
{{Main|Shinichi Kudo and Kaito Kuroba}}
Before being shrunk, Shinichi encountered [[Kaitou Kid]] once during the Clock Tower heist, though they did not meet face-to-face. In their next encounter, however, after Shinichi has become Conan, Kid disguises himself as Ran in order to steal the Suzuki family's Black Star pearl. When Conan corners him on the Suzuki cruise ship, Kid implies that he stole all of Ran's clothes to impersonate her, and left her naked on the deck. While this ends up being a bluff, Conan displays a much more intense desire to capture Kid in subsequent encounters. Conan stops Kid from escaping with the jewel often enough that Conan has gained reputation with the press as Kid's "natural enemy". In several instances Conan appears to be able to 'sense' Kid's presence, and seems excited by the chance to catch Kid again; appropriately, Kid seems to find Conan dangerous enough to warrant specific measures to keep him distracted.

[[File:704 20.png|thumb|200px|Kaitou Kid disguised as [[Shiho]] as requested from Conan]]

Conan does not buy in to Kid's reputation as a mysterious, uncatchable phantom, saying once "He's only a thief that uses magic",<ref>Anime Episode 515: Kaitou Kid's Teleportation Magic</ref> and encouraging police officers that Kid is only a man and he can be arrested. However, if necessary, the two can put their rivalry aside for a little while and work together.<ref>[[Kaitou Kid and the Four Masterpieces]]</ref> Conan has something of a gentleman's agreement with Kaitou Kid, in that he doesn't try to find or catch the thief outside of heists. In several instances, when Kid does Conan a favor, such as saving Genta's life<ref>[[Big Adventure in the Eccentric Mansion]]</ref>, Conan reciprocates by halting his investigation just shy of capturing Kid, thereby allowing him to escape mostly unhindered. This exchange of favors can sometimes become a bit unbalanced; in exchange for not giving Kid away on a train Conan has Kid face down the [[Black Organization]] in disguise, and because Kid narrowly escapes an explosion with his life, he says that Conan now owes ''him'' one.<ref>Manga [[Volume 78]], File 7 (824): "Mystery Train (Final Destination)"</ref>

In the non-[[canon]] movies, it is implied that Kid knows Conan's identity; he even helps Conan maintain his cover by disguising himself as Shinichi so that a suspicious Ran would stop suspecting Conan.

==== [[Mary Sera]] ====
Conan has been trying to discover the truth about [[Mary]] since the day he first saw her in a picture with Masumi Sera. In "The detective boys in the grove" case, he noticed Ai's uncanny resemblance to Mary. Then, he find out that the mysterious girl is the mother of Masumi Sera, Shukichi Haneda and Shuichi Akai and the wife of Tsutomu Akai, now somehow shrunken. On the other hand, Mary remains skeptical of Conan telling her daughter to be aware of him as he isn't the same boy they met 10 years ago.

==== [[Kanenori Wakita]] ====
In his introductory case, Conan noticed that he had a medical patch on his left eye, although Wakita claims it is only temporary. He obviously chose not to see the messy left eye, along with Kogoro and Ran.

In the Search for Maria-chan!, while Conan is hiding at Agasa's due to the uproar or his appearance as Kudo Shinichi on a case, during his Kyoto Field Trip, he noticed that Wakita knocked on Agasa's door, and asked about all of the press stationed next door outside of the Kudo gate, while he claimed to be making a delivery to someone in the neighorhood.

(He could have just asked the person that his delivery was for, but no. Let's ask the Kudos' [[Agasa Hiroshi|next door neighbor]]. Plus it is highly unlikely that [[Subaru]], the supposedly DEAD FBI agent, [[Akai]], who is residing in the [[Kudo Shinichi|Kudo]] house, which is the house to the supposedly dead teenage detective, would ever order for Delivery. Take-out, maybe, but not Delivery.)

There are only a few characters in the series who know Conan's real identity. None of them have ever betrayed Conan's identity to date. The main characters to know the secret are [[Hiroshi Agasa]], [[Yusaku Kudo]], [[Yukiko Kudo]], [[Heiji Hattori]], and [[Ai Haibara]]. [[Vermouth]] of the Black Organization also knows about Conan's secret. Later, in Episode 508 of the anime, [[Eisuke Hondou]] confirms Conan's identity as [[Shinichi Kudo]] straight from him. In manga chapter 812-814, [[Subaru Okiya]] ([[Shuichi Akai]] in disguise) confirms that Conan is Shinichi. [[Masumi Sera]] also knows that Conan is Shinichi Kudo before they even first met. It is also hinted that [[Mary]] knows about Conan's true identity, telling her daughter Masumi to be wary of him.

In the 13th movie, the Black Organization member [[Irish]] discovers that Conan is actually Shinichi Kudo.

The 3rd, 8th, 14th, 19th and 23th movies also demonstrate that [[Kaitou Kid]] apparently knows Conan's identity and acts to protect it. Though it was once unconfirmed if he knew in the manga, it was recently confirmed in the Fairy Lips case, where Kid thinks that there are "two high school detectives" on the scene, referring to Heiji, and Conan, the only other high school detective there. It is unknown how he came to figure this out.

== People who know that Conan is behind the "Sleeping Kogoro" ==
{{main|List of characters who know Conan is Sleeping Kogoro}}
There is even a varied list of those who know that Conan is the puppeteer behind the "Sleeping Kogoro."

== Gadgets ==
{{main|Gadgets}}
Professor Agasa has made many gadgets for Conan, including a tranquilizer wristwatch, voice-modulating bow tie, kick-enhancing shoes, tracking/binocular glasses, stretchable suspenders, and a solar powered skateboard. Conan uses the first two regularly to create "Sleeping Kogoro", and the glasses and other gadgets to investigate cases or catch criminals. Agasa also created radio badges and watch flashlights Conan and the other Detective Boys.

== Name origin ==
Gosho Aoyama (and Shinichi, in the story) got the name 'Conan Edogawa' from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, author of the famous Sherlock Holmes stories, and Edogawa Rampo, the pen name of Japanese mystery fiction writer Hirai Tarō. Hirai Tarō himself got the pen name "Edogawa Rampo" from a transliteration of "Edgar Allan Poe." Pronouncing Poe's name in a Japanese accent sounds like 'Edogawa Rampo.'

== Character inspiration ==
Gosho said Conan's hairstyle was designed in about one minute. He smoothed [[Yaiba]]'s hair and added a tuft modeled after the apostrophe hairstyle of Kabu from [[Wikipedia:Sally_the_Witch|Sally the Witch]]. The tuft on hair on the top of Conan's head comes from the character Shichimi in [[Wikipedia:Niji Iro Tōgarashi|Niji Iro Tōgarashi]]. Conan's clothes were modeled after [[Wikipedia:Shichi-Go-San|Shichi-Go-San (7-5-3) clothing]]. Young Gosho wore a bow tie and shorts in his Shichi-Go-San photographs. Gosho tries to restrict Conan's gadgets to what Conan can wear, but he has run out of ideas lately. The use of glasses as a disguise was modeled after [[Wikipedia:Superman|Superman]]'s Clark Kent. Conan's speech habits were meant to be slightly rough like Joe from [[Wikipedia:Ashita no Joe|Ashita no Joe]] and [[Wikipedia:Touch (manga)|Touch]].<ref>File 865 Shounen Sunday Special Booklet</ref>

== Trivia ==
* Conan's bad singing came to light as a joke after the anime began airing because Conan's voice actress [[Minami Takayama]] is a well-known singer. In [[Volume 15]] of the manga, Takayama herself is kidnapped and Conan, who sounds similar to her, tries to take her place at a concert. However, despite having similar voices, they sound completely different when it comes to singing.<ref>[[Volume 15|Volume 15, Files 144-146: "Their Voices Are Alike!?"]]</ref>
* [[Image:EP622-623 Gallery 16.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan's cellphone wallpaper - Kogoro changed it when he was drunk]]He owns two cellphones, the one he uses as Conan and one that he uses as Shinichi. He is also shown using different kinds of cellphones throughout the series.
* Conan often uses the expression "Ah-le-le?" when he is trying to point out a clue, something that is usually said by Japanese grade-schoolers. The expression was even [[The Sullied Masked Hero|said by Kogoro]] out of irritation at Conan (right before Conan tranquilized him). Conan's habit of acting juvenile to disguise his real abilities also [[Festival Dolls Dyed in the Setting Sun|draws the ire]] of the Detective Boys.
* Conan/Shinichi and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] share the same blood type as mention in episode 189.
* Conan/Shinchi's favorite drink is iced coffee as shown in Episode 814, Episode 919 etc. Shinichi's favorite drink is shown in [[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie]] when Daisuke say's that he isn't the only one who drinks iced coffee throughout the year. The lemon pie does not count as Shinichi's favorite during [[The Memories of First Love Case]] because the woman Asami Uchida, whose first love was Shinichi, told this to Ran and her specialty in the past was baking that same lemon pie that she finally perfected so Shinichi will tell her that the pie was delicious. Unless Gosho Aoyama said otherwise, the lemon pie may not be Shinichi's favorite and it was only brought up during that case alone.
* Whenever dealing with a particularly difficult case, Shinichi/Conan juggles a soccer ball to think better. In scenes where he doesn't have one, he often holds his chin with his thumb and forefinger.
* Conan/Shinichi doesn't know that ironically, due to all his secret keeping from Ran, he's potentially locked himself out of learning about Ran's own encounter(s) with the Black Organization, because she has no reason to tell 'Conan' about them. Shinichi/Conan has no idea that Ran has encountered Vermouth and saved Haibara from her, even 500+ chapters after it occurred. The fact that Haibara herself is invested in keeping Ran out of anything to do with the Black Organization only adds to this, as she deliberately lied to Conan/Shinichi about who saved her that night. Ran not knowing Conan's identity also prevents them from confiding in each other or pooling together information they might have in other areas, and thus can extend the time it takes for important realizations to come to light.
*In File 1045, it is revealed that Conan and Yumi have each other's phone numbers.
*In File 900, it is revealed that Conan and Miwako Sato have each other's phone numbers.
* According to Gosho in Super Digest Book 90+ that from time to time, Conan wears a jumper with a "K" written on which stands for "Karl Helmutt".
*No matter where Conan goes, he can't go anywhere without stumbling upon a murder or some other crime. Lampshaded after a while by whichever of the police officers happens to be on duty in that area and some of the characters:
:*Megure in particular begins to wonder if Kogoro is actually the Angel of Death, later on more accurately shifting his joking suspicions towards Conan himself as seen in Episode 549.
:*during The Final Screening Murder Case (manga chapter 222/anime episode 138) where the Detective Boys are watching movies in a theater and Ai tells Conan he should relax and enjoy a "child's vacation." When someone is killed at the back of the theater, Ai remarks, "It seems you never have time for a vacation."
:*In episode 141, Heiji says about Conan, "Every time I see that guy a case occurs," ... about thirty seconds before a scream is heard and a body discovered.
:*And during The Mystery in the Netcase (File 311-313/episodes 246-247) where the Detective Boys and Ran and Sonoko independently wind up at the same beach, Sonoko says of Conan, "The reason we didn't bring him was because there are always cases when he's around!"
:**Later in the same episode, Haibara learns where Conan and the others are after they're late returning to their hotel (having discovered a murder while she was not present) by asking the hotel staff if there is a murder being investigated nearby.
:*At the beginning of the first file of the paper airplane case, Conan notices how he seems to be running into cases all the time. This is the firsttime he's ever noticed, and this is over 600 chapters into the manga.
:*Except that in the very first chapter of the whole manga, he tells Ran that murders "happen all the time", which implies that encountering a lot of murders is normal to him. The rate of cases must have ramped up even further for him to notice that something is odd.
*In episode 681, it's revealed Conan has Detective Chiba's phone number.

'''{{nihongo|Conan Edogawa|江戸川コナン|Edogawa Konan}}''' is the alias used by [[Shinichi Kudo]] in his shrunken form. Shinichi took the appearance of his six or seven year old self after being exposed to a prototype poison called [[APTX 4869]], which he had been forced to swallow by two men in black later revealed to be members of the [[Black Organization]].<ref name="e1">[[Roller Coaster Murder Case|Episode 1: Roller Coaster Murder Case]]</ref> The poison de-aged Shinichi's entire body except for his nervous system and therefore he still has the personality, memories, and incredible deductive ability of his teenage self. Conan's goal is to hunt down the Black Organization and have them arrested for their crimes, as well as find an antidote to the APTX 4869. To do so he plans to make the washout detective [[Kogoro Mouri]] famous in hopes of attracting cases related to the Black Organization.

Conan is often treated as a separate character from Shinichi by fans, and often viewed as the main character of the series while Shinichi is viewed as a recurring character. He has become a popular figure in Japan and even appeared at numerous occasions in different anime series (i.e. mainly cameo appearances) as well as other medias.

== Background ==
''Conan Edogawa'' is [[Shinichi Kudo]]'s alter ego. He did not exist prior to the chain of events, involving members of the [[Black Organization]], that led Shinichi to transform back into a child.

[[File:APTX 4869 given to Shinichi.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Shinichi being drugged.]]
=== The Transformation ===
At the beginning of the series, Shinichi brings his friend [[Ran Mouri]] to [[Setting#Tropical_Land|Tropical Land]], a local theme park, to celebrate her victory in the Metropolitan Karate Championships. He later ends up solving a murder case there.<ref name="e1" /> As they are leaving, Shinichi witnesses a suspicious exchange between an unknown business man and [[Vodka|a man in black]] in a secluded area by the ferris wheel. While spying on the suspicious men, Shinichi does not notice [[Gin|another man in black]], who knocks him out from behind and forces him to swallow a new experimental poison known as [[APTX 4869]]. They then leave him to die. However, instead of killing Shinichi, a rare side-effect occurred. Shinichi's body shrunk back to that of his six-year-old self.<ref>[[Volume 1#File 002 - The Great Detective Turned Small|Volume 1, File 2, page 59: "The Great Detective Turned Small"]]</ref> In desperation and confusion, Shinichi heads back to his house and runs into his next door neighbor and close family friend, [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]]. After a few attempts at proving he's in fact Shinichi, he finally succeeds in convincing the Professor. The latter warns him he must keep his identity secret as the [[Black Organization]] will surely try to kill him and others associated with him should they learn the truth.<ref name="e2">[[Company President's Daughter Kidnapping Case|Episode 2: Company President's Daughter Kidnapping Case]].</ref>
{{clearleft}}
[[File:Agasa shinichi.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Shinichi as conan in his shrunken form with Hiroshi Agasa first time met and Professor Agasa will go to
Report to the police about this kid]]
=== Taking a new identity ===
Shinichi comes up with the alias Conan Edogawa using the mystery author names [[Arthur Conan Doyle|Arthur '''''Conan''''' Doyle]] and [[Edogawa Rampo|'''''Edogawa''''' Rampo]] and pretends to be a distant relative of Agasa's who then places Conan in Ran's care.<ref name="e2" /> Ran's father, [[Kogoro Mouri]], owns a Detective Agency which may provide a chance for Conan to run into a case involving the Black Organization. However, Kogoro is a terrible detective with little credibility. Using helpful gadgets that Agasa makes, Conan sets out to improve Kogoro's detective reputation by solving cases for him while also hiding the truth that Conan is really the one solving cases. By knocking Kogoro out at crime scenes with a fast-acting [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|tranquilizer]] and using a [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|voice modulator]] to relay deductions in Kogoro's voice, Conan creates 'Sleeping Kogoro'. The conceited Kogoro enjoys his newfound reputation and the money it brings in so much that he doesn't question why he is suddenly passing out at crime scenes and solving cases in his sleep.

=== Creation of the Detective Boys ===
Conan enrolls at [[Teitan Elementary School]] to further protect his identity and is befriended by classmates [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]], [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]], and [[Genta Kojima|Genta]], who create the ''[[Detective Boys]]'' not long after.<ref>[[The Coded Map of the City Case|Episode 4: The Coded Map of the City Case]]</ref> In the beginning he found the kids annoying, but he started to warm up to them and even gives them missions to accomplish.

[[Image:Conan Stuns Kogoro.jpg|thumb|200px|Conan stuns Kogoro with his wristwatch, ready to solve a case!]]

=== Solving cases ===
As Conan, Shinichi helps Ran's father solve cases by putting him to sleep and simulating Kogoro's voice using the special bowtie gadget Professor Agasa made for him. He also spends a good amount of time with his Detective Boys fellows and solves many small cases with them and sometimes in the company of Professor Agasa. In some situations, when there's only Ran, Sonoko, and himself, he will use Sonoko instead to solve the case at hand. Because of that, Sonoko eventually becomes another moderately well-known "sleeping" detective, although her reputation is only known to the local police investigation team and Sonoko's friends. In much later files, Conan has solved the case as himself then claimed afterwards that Shinichi told him what to say.

=== Encounter Black Organization ===
Soon after being shrunk, Conan sets the plan to pursue and arrest the Black Organization members. Initial attempts were in vain until Haibara appears and starts giving clues on their whereabouts. However, in some of his early attempts, Conan tends to underestimate the ability of the Organization, leading to situations where he or his close friends being harmed and almost killed. Once understood the Organization and having allies to help, among them Shuichi Akai, who had been undercover in the organization and knows their ways, his later plans are more successful to foil Black Organization's plans, although he hasn't been able to expose the Black Organization and arrest their members yet.
{{clear}}

== Personality ==
As Conan, Shinichi tries to behave like a child. He refers to Ran as "Ran-neechan" (''nee-chan'' meaning older sister, a common nickname Japanese children give to teenagers and young adults they look up to), and refers to Shinichi as "Shinichi-niichan" (''nii-chan'' meaning older brother). He also refers to Kogoro as "Oji-san" or "Occhan" (both meaning Uncle), although he also does this as Shinichi. As Shinichi, he refers to Conan as usually "Conan-kun" or the "Kid in the Glasses". Shinichi treats Conan as a separate person completely, thinking for example, "changing back into Conan".

[[File:Ran telling Conan she likes Shinichi.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Ran telling Conan she likes Shinichi.]]
[[File:Ran conan do not tell.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Ran telling Conan she likes Shinichi (Picture from the "[[Episode One: The Great Detective Turned Small|Episode one]]" version).]]
Conan remains very close to Ran, who in return is very protective of him. However, because Ran is unaware of his true identity, Conan often finds himself in awkward situations with her, such as when she confessed her feeling for Shinichi to him and when she made him bathe with her at a hot spring.

Conan's intelligence remains intact even though he has shrunken into a child. As Shinichi, his deductive ability earned him the monikers "[[Wikipedia: Heisei|Heisei]] Holmes" and "Savior of the Japanese police force". Conan maintains an extraordinarily broad knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases and escape tricky situations. Conan tries to speak in a child-like manner when dealing with adults, but he often gets caught up in the current case and begins speaking like an adult, referring to advanced topics and using reasoning much too complex for a normal child. When this happens, he often tries to pass it off as "something [he] heard on TV" or "taught by uncle Kogoro/professor Agasa/Shinichi-niichan".
Likewise, he makes no effort to hide his love for [[Sherlock Holmes]] and soccer, so if he called out for talking about either subject in too much detail, he tries to escape suspicion by saying it was something Shinichi told him about. Although as the series has progressed the adults around him have
become more used to his "being quite smart for a child", causing him to behave more like himself around them, he still tries to pass as a normal child.
[[File:Conan, Tome, and Chiba.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan whispers to [[Kazunobu Chiba]] and [[Officer Tome|Tome]].]]
The only police officers with whom Conan can speak in a professional manner are the [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]], especially [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], [[James Black]], and Inspector [[Kansuke Yamato]] of the Nagano Police, all of whom suspect that there is more to Conan than meets the eye.

Conan tends to act more like himself around the [[Detective Boys]], even to the point that they find it odd when he acts like a child around adults. He will often play games like baseball with the Detective Boys, but he is too used to soccer to perform well and will even instinctively use soccer techniques, such as kicking in games that do not call for it. Because he is unfamiliar with popular games and TV shows, and bad at video games, Genta and the others tend to think of him as dumb. This annoys Conan so much that he will secretly watch TV in the living room after Kogoro and Ran go to sleep to get more "practice" in.

While he thinks that criminals should be punished, he also seem willing to give culprits, who has attempted murder due to misunderstandings and fail, a second chance and let them off the hook. <ref>The Celebrities' Secret</ref><ref>Won't Forgive Even One Millimeter</ref><ref>Scuba Diving Murder Case</ref><ref>Poisoned Fisherman Attempted Murder Case</ref>

After he had one time failed to stop the culprit from committing suicide,<ref>[[Moonlight Sonata Murder Case|Episodes 11: Moonlight Sonata Murder Case]].</ref> he began to believe that a detective who has cornered a killer and just let him kill himself is no better than a murderer, and therefore he tries to do everything to stop it. At times when he fails to save the killer it haunts him. At first, he's callous and unempathetic: in The Bandage Man Villa murder case, when the culprit threatens to commit suicide, Shinichi calls his bluff by outright telling him to do it. However, soon after that Shinichi suffers through his own Norbury with the Moonlight Sonata Murder Case, during which a culprit commits suicide because Shinichi identified them without thinking ahead to how the culprit might react. The next two cases where a culprit plans to commit suicide has Shinichi removing the lethal tools before confronting them and placing officers around the perimeter to prevent the culprit from jumping respectively—and in each instance, Shinichi is clearly haunted by the death of the culprit in the Moonlight Sonata case, enough to snap at Hattori for offhandedly suggesting it may have been better if they let the culprit of the day actually kill themself, stating that a detective that allows that is "no better than a murderer himself." The Detective's Nocturne case caps off this development arc, with Shinichi accompanying and befriending a suicidal murderer in order to form an emotional connection and convince them not to kill themself.

However, an innate characteristic that he has, and probably had as Shinichi may be due to being a detective. Whenever he hears a scream, or sees a culprit, he will immediately and without hesitation run toward the sound or culprit instictively.

If he is with another adult, or detective, he will most likely be in the front 2 people running toward the sound.
If by himself or with some other non detective, he will still be running toward the sound.
Whether it is a victim or a culprit, he will be one of the first 2 people.

If it is to a victim, and another detective or officer is present, he may hang back a little, but he has no hesitations to checking on the victim, looking for clues, or going after culprits.

And while it may have been somewhat forced on, Shinichi/Conan stops being as attention-seeking as he was in his original body.
Subtle, but during "The 3 'K's of Osaka" story, Conan/Shinichi didn't want to investigate the case because his soccer idol was a suspect (and later confirmed to be the actual culprit). Afterwards, he stopped thinking like this, deciding that even if his friends, family, or someone who is close to either one is a suspect, he will consider that person a suspect until proven otherwise (such as Genta's dad being a possible suspect in "The Culprit is Genta's Dad" or Ran in "Kaitou Kid and the Blush Mermaid").
In regards to his attitude in dealing with mysterious and dangerous Black Organization (B.O.), Shinichi initially and arrogantly believed he could easily take them down, taking only minimum precautions in safety of himself and others. For example, when a B.O. member was suspected to be near in the "Reunion With The Black Organization" arc, Conan's way of protecting Haibara from being recognized is simply putting glasses on her; unfortunately, their was a B.O. member (Pisco) who instantly knew that Haibara was the shrunken Shiho Miyano and would have revealed her identity had he not been killed by Gin. It could've ended in more tragedy since Gin was very close to killing Haibara. This incident was a major wake-up call to the young detective that the organization isn't as easy to take down as he thought and that if he made a mistake, he or his loved ones could die. And while Shinichi/Conan still has a bit of a reckless side, he now asks for help when dealing with the B.O. and formulating plans to keep him and his allies safe.

== Appearance ==
[[File:Conan full face.png|thumb|right|200px|]]
Conan has dark brown hair which mostly hangs downwards just above his blue eyes, but there are also a few strands that stick up at the front and back of his head. Conan's usual outfit consists of a blue blazer with a single button and a pair of shorts, red trainers and white socks, even though he has taken to wearing more casual clothing as time goes on. He also wears a red bowtie and his dad's old glasses. Both these items were later [[Gadgets|specifically modified]] by Professor Agasa to include a [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|voice changer]], [[Button Speaker|microphone]], and [[Criminal Tracking Glasses|homing device]], to aid in Conan in his cases. His [[Power-Enhancing Kick Shoes|red shoes]] have also been modified to harness electric and magnetic fields to stimulate pressure points on Conan's foot, greatly enhancing his kicking power.

Additionally, much like Hattori and Shinichi, Conan is incredibly popular. Ayumi and Haibara both have crushes on him, he has been hit on by girls around his shrunken age repeatedly, and even Jodie and Vermouth have both been charmed by his charisma. One even promised to make him her husband.

Conan eavesdrop Police investigation meeting in [[Zero the Enforcer|Conan the movie 22]] to save Kogoro mouri from being a suspect.]]
All of Shinichi's detective skills carry over to his Conan form, although Conan does not the have the reputation Shinichi had. He repeatedly demonstrates the ability to remember every detail of an investigation or other topics he cares about, and may have a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eidetic_memory photographic memory] to manage such perfect recall so consistently. Conan's fastidious attention to detail allows him to notice minor inconsistencies in crime scenes and suspect testimony that other people miss, and using astute logic he uncovers the reasons behind those inconsistencies in order to link them to the crime. Conan has extraordinarily broad knowledge of many subjects and trivia that help him solve cases; something he likely acquired from his incessant reading in his "first childhood". There are only few people like [[Heiji]], [[Hakuba]] and [[Yusaku]] who are at the same detective level as Conan, with Yusaku be the only person who is noticeably better than Conan.

As a child, Conan can attract less suspicion while investigating crime scenes, get away with searching people's personal property, and ask innocent questions without setting suspects on guard, although it comes with the drawback of not having Shinichi's authority or reputation. He is also shown able to read lips.<ref>[[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie]]</ref>

Additionally, in the [[Conan vs. Double Code Mystery|Red, White, Yellow case]], Conan was specifically referred to and asked for help by a fellow classmate.

=== Observation Sense ===
He is highly observant on almost every single thing in his life, whether at a crime scene, or his normal everyday life, whether he is Shinichi or Conan. If he notices anything amiss, he will frequently leave the Detective Boys, or whoever to investigate immediately, esp. if he thinks the organization is involved, but really his curiousity knows no bounds.

It is kind of like his brain will not rest, as long as he is awake because he frequently observes everything, and wants to investigate it.

[[Conan Cornered in the Darkness|At one point]], this is why he was kidnapped, and placed in a coffin with a fake bottom, in an old style hearse, which the kidnappers did not know was going to be sent to the scrapyard and crushed within hours of placing him in there.

He is also a real people watcher, and spends a lot of time watching people to help determine careers, emotions, what is going on with them to name a few. If need be he will get up, and investigate further.

He frequently notices momentary facial expressions that are only on a person's face for a second or two, which is all it takes for him to register the true emotions of people and various culprits. Such as a suddenly hidden smile upon finding the body of one's spouse, and the list goes on.

Some Examples are the following:

In [[Home of Beika's Grenier]], when the old man used a hand to stand up, despite the presence of 4 little children, Conan noticed instantly the look that the old woman gave her husband, since he should not have used his hands to stand up in the presence of others.

In [[The Tense Tea Party]], in [[Haido Central Hospital]], Conan was watching [[Bourbon]], and instantly noticed how he reacted after a small child was counting down, "Three... Two... One..." and shouted out, "Zero!!" Since Amuro noticed his own reaction, he had to cover it up, and say that "'Zero' was one his nicknames when he was a little child."

This was really the first clue to Conan that Amuro may not just be the Black Organization Member Bourbon, but [[Public Security Bureau|something else too]]. During The [[Scarlet showdown|Scarlet Return]] Episode 779-783, Conan began to deduce from his own observations, that Amuro was from the Japanese Secret Police, which became confirmed by the end of the saga.

Even when he was little he was practicing observing details and guessing careers of people, [[Episode 881|not always accurately]], but he was really a little boy at the time. This became much more accurate as he became older, and he retained this knowledge, when he shrunk down to Conan.

=== Being Watched or Paranoia Sense ===

However, this particular Sense is the sense to know when he is being watched or observed by others. It may be called Paranoia, but it is not Paranoid if someone is really watching or following him, which he can quickly pick up on usually.

This may stem from his involvement with the [[Black Organization]], and others.

It may also help that his parents like to watch their son in disguise, and [[Yukiko Kudo|esp. his Master Of Disguise Mother]], with his [[Yusaku Kudo|Mystery Author father's]] habit of testing his son's observations and deductions from the time when he was really a young child.

This ability is even more important due to the Black Organization wanting both [[Shiho Miyano|Sherry]] and his [[Shinichi Kudo|teenage self]] 'Dead," since it helps to protect them.

This sense comes in a lesser degree as well:

Although Conan can speak in a professional manner are the FBI, especially [[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]], [[James Black]], and [[Kansuke Yamato|Inspector Kansuke Yamato of the Nagano Police]], all of whom suspect that there is more to Conan than meets the eye, as well as everyone, who know his identity, it does cause problems with everyone else.
He can even speak this way to [[the Detective Boys]].

This Sense also allows him to eventually realize when he is being highly descriptive, and rambling with adult knowledge, for him to quickly cover it up with "saw it on Tv'" "Heard it from [[Kogoro Mouri|Uncle]], [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]], or [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]]," and to begin talking and acting like a kid, even though the Detective Boys do not get why he suddenly goes all child-like, which is really the only time he does.

It may also help him to know when [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] is suspicious that he is Shinichi Kudo, so he has to attempt to behave more like a child to mislead her for her own protection.

This sense also allows him to determine if it is safe to use his tranquilizer on someone for the "sleeping Detective" routine. If he is being too closely watched, he has to continue to give hints, and possibly throughout the entire deduction, if he is unable to tranquilize someone: Kogoro, [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]], or someone else, if necessary.

This sense did not seem to activate at all at [[Jodie's Memories and the Cherry Blossom Viewing Trap|the shrine]], when he was talking to Jodie, however, after a [[Bourbon|disguised Bourbon]] had a little chat with Jodie, and secretly placed a listening device in her sleeve, he wandered off, so that he can continue listening to them.

However, with that deceased pickpocketing case, he and the other pickpocket victims, were brought to the crime scene, so he still continued listening to Jodie and Conan's conversation, although he did not appear to really watch or pay any attention to Jodie, Conan, Agasa, or any of the 4 kids, but he probably had a good view of [[Haibara]], unlike every other time, [[Sweet and Cold Delivery Service|when she attempts to hide her face from him]].

If he was visually watching intently, Conan would probably have picked it up, but Bourbon's observations were done in a way, that did not place Conan on high alert, except for when Jodie kept bringing up "Shuu."

Needless to say, after the [[Kogoro in the Bar]] case, when Takagi told him some information, he was really on high alert, and this sense may not have activated due to his panic mode, which was still evident at the beginning of [[Bathroom Where Ran Collapsed As Well]] case, although he was being observed by Bourbon, who was listening around the corner, however for several hours later, he did appear to be quite paranoid, and maybe that is why it did not appear to activate, because he was already on high alert and frightened at the time.

Now, these sense is sometimes just a fleeting sense, however, something did seem to activate it, even if it was just momentarily, but it does leave to a hint that someone might be watching him.

=== Speed Reader ===
In [[Once-A-Month Present Threat Case]], he was shown to be able to read through hospital records at lightning fast speed.

=== Killer Radar ===
This radar is obviously not completely accurate, but at times, he only has to see a person to know that they are the killer.

In the first episode, he could sense that [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] were killers, but that did not stop him from tailing Vodka, only to be knocked out by Gin, and fed a [[Apoptoxin 4869|poison pill, which made him shrink to the body of a 7 year old]].

In [[The Romance Novel with the Unexpected Conclusion]], he knew who the killer within minutes of the body being discovered, and merely had to get the evidence and figure out the trick.

There are many other instances as well.

In [[The Mysterious Woman With Amnesia Case]], he probably would have picked up on the amnesiac woman being a killer, but she did have amnesia, although he highly suspected when he saw her hands, which are the hands of someone who works with wire. He picked up that she was a hit woman, who specialized in killing by use of a wire garrote, which she used to strangle her victims.

In one episode, someone fell from a balcony, and Conan knew this woman was the killer instantly. The police brought up the information of her husband being killed during a robbery awhile back.

After she was questioned, and was allowed to leave, Conan began acting and begging her to let him ride in her expensive looking car, and she did.They left without [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].

He even managed to have her take him to see her place.

After she left him alone, he began investigating, and around the time of his deduction, Kogoro called him, and the call ended soon afterward.

When Conan stated that he knows that she is responsible for the death of her husband, and the guy who just fell, she threatened to kill him, and he lets her know that he hit redial on the phone, and Kogoro stated, "The police are on there way."

=== Suicide Alertness ===
This sense allows him to determine if a person, and most likely the culprit is likely to commit suicide, which would probably be a result of the deduction stage of a case.
Sometimes, it may be simply obvious, with the culprit stating their suicidal intentions, but it is not usually that way, and Conan's sense was developed after a specific incidence.

In [[Moonlight Sonata Murder Case]], Conan figured out that the serial killer planned to die, like his father, and before their mind could be changed, the culprit literally threw Conan through the window, just before the building went up in flames. Since that incident, Conan is more determined to take the suicidal choice away from the culprits.

In [[Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case]], Conan had asked, [[Heiji]], "If he ever killed anyone before," stating that he feels that letting a person commit suicide when it can be stopped is the same as killing the person oneself.
While Conan was talking with Heiji, he was also replacing the gasoline with water in order to stop the culprits Murder/Suicide.

In [[The Case of the Besieged Detective Agency]], a gunman strapped with bombs came into the detective agency, shortly followed by three women. His instructions were to discover which of the 3 women murdered his sister, and made it look like a suicide. Conan called [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], who was with [[Sera Masumi|Sera]], and Sera closed Ran's phone, but kept her little phone thing placed inside the phone, so it is still open, and Conan can hear everything that is being spoken.

The gunman stated that he will blow up the agency, if Kogoro cannot name the killer, and that once the killer is named, he will only kill the killer and himself. Thankfully, after the gunman discovered Ran's phone was still open, he welcomed the assistance of another [[Shinichi Kudo|Detective Shinichi Kudo]].

After [[the Detective Boys]] managed to do the footwork, Conan was able to finish solving the case, but he first had to stop the gunman from committing a murder/suicide, so he bluffed that the sister killed herself.
After the gunman was arrested, Conan finished solving the case, out of earshot of the suicidal man, and named the killer, who is not who they thought it was.

In [[Detectives' Nocturne]], Conan quickly figured out that the woman in the agency's bathroom was really the killer of the "accused deceased guy.
After [[Bourbon|Amuro]], [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]], Ran, and Conan escorted her home to her apartment, then Conan behaved like he was desperate to use the bathroom, which really made sense, since a corpse was on the toilet seat of the apartment, until the police removed it, and it is still a crime scene.

When everyone else went to the kitchen for tea or something, Conan rushed to the bathroom, and quickly went the other direction in order to investigate the apartment. Most likely, he discovered bugs, and especially a bug in the suitcase with another corpse, which was under the bed.

When he was finished with his investigation, he left the apartment and waited for her.

After Masumi called Ran, Amuro and Kogoro realized there are bugs present, and Amuro hung up on Masumi.

Amuro has a bug detector, and while Amuro, Kogoro, and Ran went on the search to discover all of the bugs in the apartment, the woman made up an escuse, and immediately bumped into Conan, who was waiting for her.

She agreed to take him with her to a nearby convenience store, and gave him some juice, which she drugged with sleeping pills. After he appeared to fall asleep, she continued driving.

When Kogoro, Ran, and Amuro discovered the body, and noticed Conan's absense, Kogoro called the culprit/kidnapper, and she stated that Conan will be returned in the morning.

After Kogoro and Amuro did more investigating, and noticing that bank robbery, and that 2 of the suspects are the dead guy in the suitcase, and the deceased one at the agency.

Ran told Masumi and Agasa that Conan has been kidnapped, which of course sets the stage for the big rescue scene:

Masumi on her motorcycle

[[Subaru]], [[Agasa]], and [[Haibara]] in Subaru's car, with Haibara wearing the tracking glasses.

Amuro, Ran, and Kogoro in another Vehicle, with Kogoro in the back Seat.

At some point, Conan stopped acting like he was really asleep, and gave her his deduction, and even helped her to discover which of those 3 women is the third bank robber, who killed her boyfriend in the bank. However, he would not give her the answer straight away, since he told her, "I do not want to lose anyone. I mean you," since he read that her intentions were to kill the third robber, and then herself.

By bonding with her, he managed to get her to agree to let the police handle it, and to turn herself in, once he told her.
His plan was working splendidly until the third robber, with a shooting gun, entered the car, and grabbed and immobilized Conan, as well as holding tightly to his right wrist, so that he could not tranquilize her, which is where the rescuers came in.

In another episode, Conan was with [[the Detective Boys]], when they came across a man, and after he dropped his lottery tickets, they helped him to pick it up. This man was talking positively about the future, and he even had lunch with the 5 children.

After he left, Conan apparently notified and began teaching the other Detective Boys the signs that this man was about to commit suicide today, and they followed this man to a subway station.

Conan stating, "It'll hurt, you know," referring to jumping in front of the subway train.

Conan and all of the Detective Boys: [[Genta]], [[Mitsuhiko]], [[Ayumi]], ande [[Haibara]] told him their evidence that he was about to commit suicide.

Conan even managed to help him to locate his winning lottery ticket that he had lost, which was inside of the eyeglass container that his sick and hospitalized granddaughter gave him. He had not opened it since he lost that ticket. He was contemplating suicide in order to have his life insurance pay for her operation, thankfully he now has the lottery ticket, which may be able to help his granddaughter.

After all, if he did commit suicide, the insurance company would not have paid it, if they were aware it was a suicide, which thankfully these 5 kids prevented.

Thankfully, Conan began teaching the other Detective Boys some of the signs of a suicidal person, so they may be aware of them next time they find another suicidal person.

=== Bluffing and Telling Lies===
He can bluff, if needed in order to come to the correct deduction, however he is not a great Liar.

Bluffing is giving misinformation, in order to trip up the culprit. A few examples of Conan's Bluffs are the following:

In [[Holmes Freak Murder Case]], he stated the incorrect question of number 241 on that Holmes Test to prove that the culprit did not answer any of the 1,000 questions, since he knew the test grader was already deceased.

In [[The Case of the Lucky Calico|the Lucky Calico]] case, he really told 2 bluffs, although only 1 bluff was discussed:

The first one was to mistake the gender of a male calico, and stating it was a female, in order to gauge how this "supposed owner" would react, since male calico cats are worth a fortune. Conan managed to see the reaction before [[the Detective Boys]] blew it. Either way, this "supposed owner would have backed out if the calico was a female.

The second bluff was discussed when [[Azusa]] stated that she did not know that "when a group of people are together, the cat will always jump to the one in the middle." [[Amuro]] stated that Conan did a bluff, so that he can perform his own experiment with the calico and the 3 "supposed owners," before remarking that Conan is like a cat sharpening his claws." Amuro also did not state that it was to allow more time to pass, so that the [http://catnip catnip], would have no effect on [[Taii]] or [[Goro]], so that Taii's true owner can be properly identified.

In [[The Case of the Besieged Detective Agency]], a gunman strapped with bombs came into the detective agency, shortly followed by three women. His instructions were to discover which of the 3 women murdered his sister, and made it look like a suicide. Conan called [[Ran]], who was with [[Sera Masumi|Sera]], and Sera closed Ran's phone, but kept her little phone thing placed inside the phone, so it is still open, and Conan can hear everything that is being spoken.

The gunman stated that he will blow up the agency, if Kogoro cannot name the killer, and that once the killer is named, he will only kill the killer and himself. Thankfully, after the gunman discovered Ran's phone was still open, he welcomed the assistance of another [[Shinichi Kudo|Detective Shinichi Kudo]].

After [[the Detective Boys]] managed to do the footwork, Conan was able to finish solving the case, but he first had to stop the gunman from committing a murder/suicide, so he bluffed that the sister killed herself.
After the gunman was arrested, Conan finished solving the case, out of earshot of the suicidal man, and named the killer, who is not who they thought it was.

As far as his cover of Conan Edogawa, he does have a hard time keeping others ignorant of his true identity.
It does not help that he behaves more like an adult, when not actively playing with the Detective Boys, and he quickly switches to Adult Mode, if an investigation is in order, due to a crime or something else entirely.

Two major examples of his being a lousy liar:

When he had a hold of [[Kir]]'s shoe, with his bug and transmitter, at the park, she asked him if he followed her, while applying her CIA Lie Test to him.
She made him feel weird, and he did say "no," but she knew that he did follow her, and lied about it. It is a good thing that she previously turned off her own camera or wire, so the other [[Black Organization|Black Organization Operatives]] may not kill him. She then thanked him for "picking up her shoe for her," before leaving.

In [[Haido Central Hospital]], [[Amuro]] asked Conan if he remembers his friend, [[Kusuda Rikumichi]], who was a patient, but went missing.
[[The Tense Tea Party|Conan, quickly trying to end that line of questioning from Bourbon, quickly answered, "No."]]

Amuro smiled, and told him that he was amazing. He then went to question other people nearby, and returned to Conan, and stated, "Most people are not confident in their own memories to instantly remember a person by their name only. Usually they have to ask questions, before answering."
It is kind of like Amuro was aware of how amazing Conan is at so many different things, but he can't lie to save his life.
It is like Amuro decided to give the kid a tip on how to tell a convincing lie.

=== Strategist ===
He may not have always been a great strategist, but his strategies are becoming much better.

In [[Boy Genta's Misfortune]], he deduced information pertaining to the Culprit, and ... He may not have organized the stakeout of that building yet, however he definitely did organize a road block with Sato, who got in contact with Yumi in [[The Man from Chicago]], when a [[James Black|foreign man]] was kidnapped. Unfortunately, Yumi did let them through since they were in a police car, and dressed as policemen, however when they deduced that Conan came up with a scheme so that the police can surround the culprits, by making it look like they were chasing some kidnappers, who kidnapped some kids. The plan worked wonders. By the way, even James Black the kidnappee, knew who staged his rescue with that ploy, after just one encounter with the five "Detective Boys," and all Conan had to go on was "P & A."

In [[Contact with the Black Organization]], when Conan was on the phone with [[Vodka]], pretending to be the recently found '[[Suguru Itakura|dead guy]],' he successfully managed to move the meet up. He wanted to have the meet before they found out the guy was dead, and he was hoping to get fingerprints, saliva, DNA, etc.

The thing is it may have worked if [[Gin]] did not stop Vodka from touching the item. In short, Gin became aware that someone crafty, like a fox, is after them. In short, Conan forgot, who he was dealing with, the "[[Black Organization|Men in Black]]," and to be more precise, the two that [[Roller Coaster Murder Case|shrunk, and almost killed]] him before.

Conan managed to survive that encounter, but just barely due to Gin discounting something important. At any rate, Conan was stuck in that locker for several hours, and even lost some oxygen, and blacked out for awhile. Conan has since that time became much more cautious when dealing with the organization, unfortunately there is no one-hundred percent safe way to take on that organization.

In [[Episode 345|Head-To-Head]], after he received an invitation from [[Vermouth]], he asked [[Haibara]] about her, and decided to tranquilize her, and lock her in the basement, and attempted to hide the spare tracking glasses.

He mentioned to [[Agasa]], that [[Shinichi Kudo]]'s name is on the invitation and envelope, and his: Conan Edogawa's name is on the letter, in short, Vermouth knows his identity.

He e-mailed someone and got a reply and a sudden cough.
He inspected his house, and found [[Yukiko Kudo|his mother]].

He told his mother about Vermouth, and her knowing his identity. He had her do some disguises.
Yukiko disguised [[Hattori]] as first a teenage Shinichi, and then as the Invisible Man for the party.
She then disguised Conan to took like Haibara.
She then gave herself a Medusa Disguise, and accompanied Hattori on the ship with Kudo's invitation.

[[Jodie]] picked up Haibara, who was really a disguised Conan, and he told her what to say in order for Vermouth to reveal herself.

He planned on having her take him in to the Organization, but she attempted to kill Jodie, he unmasked himself, and his plan really went out the window, when Haibara escaped from the basement, and found the spare tracking glasses, and arrived at the scene, since she was tracking Conan.

In [[Clash of Red and Black]], he came up with a few strategies:
He told his plan to [[Akai]], who was heavily involved with both major SECRET strategies.

Fist, you need a "[[Eisuke Hondo|Prince]] to wake up the [[Kir|sleeping Princess]]," which means Eisuke to wake up his sister, who is continuing to fake her comatose condition.

Then Conan, Akai, Kir, and [[Camel]] are involved in the returning Kir back Undercover in the [[Black Organization]], keeping everyone else in the dark, until she is back undercover.

Then Conan came up with the plan to fake Akai's death by out guessing [[Gin]], the entire way. Only Akai and Kir, as well as Conan were in on this plan, but Conan could not be present, at this time at all, and did need to give Jodie his phone with the needed fingerprints. Everyone else was left in the dark, except for [[James Black]], who noticed the glue like substance on Akai's fingertips just prior to the meet.

In [[The Jet-Black Mystery Train]], Conan had even less time to come up with a working strategy, since he did have his guard down. Thankfully, his mother let him know Vermouth was on the train, and he saw the Picture [[Mitsuhiko]] took of [[Shiho Miyano|Sherry]], when she saved them a little earlier.

He had to quickly come up with a plan, which used an all-star cast of himself, his mother, [[Subaru]], and [[Kaito Kid|Kid disguised as Sherry]] as the finishing touches.

That strategy worked out big time, since they were able to save Haibara's life, discover [[Bourbon]]'s identity, and make Vermouth agree to quit trying to kill her.

In [[Scarlet showdown|the Scarlet episodes]], after Camel let it slip that [[Rikumichi Kusuda|Kusada]] shot himself in the head, Conan had less then a day to come up with a plan that made Bourbon think that Subaru and Akai were 2 different people, and to save Akai again.

This time, Akai was in the back of Jodie and Camel's car.

His mother, Yukiko Kudo, was disguised as her husband appearing on tv at an awards ceremony.

His father, Yusaku Kudo, was dressed as [[Subaru]].
His father was wearing a voice changing facemask, and did a bit of coughing.
Sometimes he answered, and sometimes, Conan listening in another room, with a number of cameras, had to also use Subaru's voice, when talking to Bourbon in the living room.

=== Athletic ability ===
Conan is just as skilled as Shinichi in soccer, but a lot less powerful because he only has the strength of a young child. To make up for this, Conan uses Agasa's Power-enhancing kick shoes. Conan uses signature, powerful precision kick to knock out criminals using soccer balls or whatever substitute is handy. Like Shinichi, Conan's kick is accurate over distances and he is capable of mentally reckoning the angle of impact necessary to rebound a soccer ball off a wall and strike an attacker from behind. He is also good at skiing, snowboarding, and ice-skating.

Conan also has some skill with firearms despite the recoil being much more severe for a child's body. He shoots out a bus window during a bus hijacking, and precisely grazes Ran's leg to render her useless as a hostage in the second movie.

Conan's nimbleness is especially noticeable in the non-[[canon]] movies. For example, in the sixth movie, Conan is seen to fight with various antagonists, and he even holds his own against Jack the Ripper, a notorious serial killer who bests even Ran in combat. In the fourteenth movie, Conan does a back flip on his skateboard in order to avoid being killed by the blimp's hijackers. Conan shows a proclivity for skateboarding. In the movies and anime, Conan can easily perform very complicated tricks and dodges with his skateboard at high speed.

=== Acting Ability ===
He may not have great acting ability, however he is good enough to accomplish his goals.

In [[Detectives' Nocturne]], he was given some juice, drugged with sleeping pills. He noticed that the safety seal was broken, so he pretended to drink it, and also at some time, appeared to fall asleep, spilling half of the juice on the back seat floorboard of her car, and really acted asleep for a long time.

At some point, she even laid him down in the back seat, where he remained in that pose for a long time.

When it was dark, and she stopped to get gas, and go to the restroom, she covered him with her coat, so he would not get sick.

He continued acting asleep, when she returned, although he probably went through her coat pockets when she was away.

He continued acting asleep, until he decided that he had enough evidence for his deduction, and to give it to her.

In [[Two Days with the Culprit]], after he was kidnapped by Ryousuke Oomine, when he had an opening in some kind of room, he acted like he was scared of a rat or something, and began hugging, but in reality, he was frisking him in order to determine if he is armed.

After he solved the case, he asked Ryousuke Oomine, "how are you at acting," and they went to the location of the three suspects, and put on an act, like he was about to kill Conan, in order for the culprit to reveal himself. It worked.

In [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night ]], Conan did a good job of acting like [[Haibara]] in the car with [[Jodie]], but he probably broke character in order to tell Jodie what to say to [[Vermouth]] in order to get her to reveal herself to them, but that also earned his trust in Jodie at the same time.

After he removed his Haibara mask, he was distracted, when Haibara showed up on the scene, which gave Vermouth the needed opening to use his stun gun wrist watch on him, to place him to sleep, before gently sitting him down beside the car, so he does not get hurt in the fall.

After Vermouth abducted an unconscious Conan, and drove some distance away, she e-mailed the boss, and began thinking. When she touched his shoulders, she apparently felt some wires and stuff on him, so she cut his coat, and found a number of tubes going from Conan's body into a box. She started to rip out the wires from the box, and heard, "I wouldn't if I were you." If those wires were pulled, it would send information to the machine that he is dead, and that e-mail that she just sent would be sent to his partner and the police. It is unknown just how long he was asleep, and when he woke up, but he later recalled the sound of the digits to the Boss.

In [[The Disappearance of Conan Edogawa: The Worst Two Days in History]], the TV Special, while in a public bathroom, and after Conan saw some important evidence, he realized the danger, and faked a slip on the wet floor, where he was promptly chloroformed, and abducted.

When he woke up, he pretended that he had amnesia.
He eventually revealed that he was Edogawa Conan Detective to one of the people involved, however the amnesiac child act had to continue for the duration of the case.

In [[The Woman with White Hands|The Woman with White Hands Case]], while rehearsing his lines for tomorrow's play, Conan is playing 'Ikku' in the school play.

All of the following: [[Kobayashi-sensei]], [[Rumi Wakasa|Rumi-sensei]] as well as Conan's classmates are astonished at his wonderful acting and delivery of his lines.

He told Haibara that he played that part when he was in third grade, and his parents had trained him well. With [[Yukiko Kudo|his mother being an actress]], and his [[Yusaku Kudo|father being a mystery writer]], who suggested a better phrase for him to say rather than the written line.

In short, neither of his parents would have permitted him to give anything less than a stellar performance, so they made certain his performance was perfect. This is why, he missed several rehearsals as Conan as he remembered most of his lines.

In [[A Crab and Whale Kidnapping Case]], at a beer garden at night, Conan overheard this man on the phone, and surmissed that his child had been abducted. Surprisingly Kogoro and Ran listened, and they followed this man, who they found out was a dentist.

However, the only way to find out more, and everything, is to talk to the dentist. Since there may be some onlookers, Conan decided to play the part of a patient.

He did a magnificent job of acting like a little boy who had an excruciatingly bad toothache in order to convince any onlookers that he was a patient, so that they could enter the Dentist office and talk to the Dentist. He appeared to be even louder than Kogoro on the intercom, asking for his child to be able to see the dentist, even though the dentist office is closed.

As good as he is at acting, he is not always great at it.

Most notibly, when he is petrified.

When he hears the [[Nanatsu no Ko|7 children's melody]], he is unable to even act, like it is nothing, and esp. if he hears if in regards to dialing the [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|Boss's]] [[The Raven Chaser|E-mail]] [[Dissonance of the Stradivarius Violin|address]].

At the [[Jodie's Memories and the Cherry Blossom Viewing Trap|shrine with Jodie]], he was definity unguarded, and the two did quite a bit of talking: before and after she had been bugged by a disguised [[Bourbon]] (Claiming to be [[Tohei Benzaki|a hostage, who was coincidentally pickpocketed just prior to being knocked out by Bourbon]], at the same bank with Jodie and the [[Scar Akai|scarred guy]]), until a disguised Vermouth (Claiming to be his [[Motoe Benzaki|6 month pregnant wife, who taped up Jodie]] at the bank) removed the bug.

In the [[Kogoro in the Bar|Kogoro at the Bar Case]], [[Takagi Wataru|Detective Takagi]] notified Conan, that Tohei Benzaki, claims that he was never involved in a pickpocket case, and that he is single, and Conan begins to remember that the Bank robbers separated the hostages, who came with someone, from those who came alone. Only those who came alone taped up the ones who came with others.

This placed Conan in a panicky state, and he began running from the bar, probably to the [[Agasa|professor]]'s house, since it is unlikely that he would have fled back to the Detective Agency, since [[Haibara]] might be in danger. If he did go to Agasa's house, it may also have placed [[Subaru]]/ [[Akai]] in danger too.

In [[Bathroom Where Ran Collapsed As Well|the Bathroom where Ran Collapsed As Well Case]], he was still running from the bar.

He began thinking that Bourbon and Vermouth may have made those purposeful mistakes in their story to trap him into making a mistake too, so he tried to calm down, and called Haibara, who apparently is safe, at this time. He then hung up.

Around the corner, Bourbon had been closely watching him, when he was on the phone.

Later that day, [[Ran]] and Conan were in an apartment complex lobby, while they were waiting for [[Eri Kisaki|Ran's mother]], in order to have lunch.

Conan was attempting to act normal, although he failed miserably, since he was literally looking around the entire time, since they arrived, and probably ever since he hung up from Haibara earlier.

He was so obviously frightened, that Ran asked if he is okay. He answered in the affirmative, but soon afterwards, he was literally sweating bullets.

Ran thought about taking him home, rather than eating with her Mom, since he might be coming down with something.

Soon afterwards, an already terrified Conan begins hearing the shutter of a camera, and becomes even more terrified. Soon afterwards, he saw a camera take his picture from behind a nearby chair, and [[Masumi]] came out of hiding, which really helped his fear to disappear, so that he can really go back to his normal "Not terrified for your life" state again.

She probably witnessed his fear, while working on a case for her client, but chose to help him to calm down finally.

In short, when he is terrified, he is unable to act like everything is normal.

Another way that he fails at acting is when he cracks the culprit's trick, and gets the last bit of evidence for his deduction.

If anyone is really watching Conan at these times, he may have some explaining to do.
However no one is really paying attention to him at these many times. They are either not around, due to 'less footwork' or completely ignoring him, unless they (Kogoro) wants to get on to him for being where he shouldn't, and reacts promptly to that reprimand, rather than really observing him.

He has shown both of these expressions a lot, and sometimes even both of them.
The first is when he usually figures out the trick, and the momentary reaction he has when everything clicks into place.
The second has finally been termed as a 'Prankster Smile' in the lucky calico case, by the detective boys, most noticeably Haibara and Ayumi in that order to realize that when he shows that smile, he has cracked the case and figured out everything.

Unfortunately, he is frequently unable to act bored much of the time, even as Conan, since he is a genius, who could probably teach his high school teachers things as Shinichi Kudo, and bring him back to elementary school, and he is bored to death if he can't use his intellectual brain, which does help that most of the culprits do have a trick that requires to be cracked if they are to be caught.

However, if a trick, code, or riddle is highly perplexing, Conan seems not to be able to hide his excitement, which he is not good at hiding to the observant.

=== Thirst For Intellectual Stimuli ===
In [[The Secret of the Moon, the Star, and the Sun]], Professor Agasa made a treasure hunt game for the Detecctive Boys, really wanting it to be very difficult that Shinichi would practically give up, forgetting that if it was that way, the three real first graders would be unable to crack it at all.

At any rate, Conan had already cracked the case, and found the professor's box within five minutes of entering the house, and he was focused on a much more complex code that someone else had come up with at the house.

The Detective Boys reprimanded Conan for being lazy, and not helping figuring out where the clues to the Professor's treasure hunt, so that Conan had to lead the lazy children to each clue, so it is surprising that he did not just tell them where the box is, and don't bother him while he is focused on this less boring code.

However, Agasa noticed Conan's deliriously happy expression when he was getting to solve a complicated riddle. Conan even stated, "The more I don't understand, the more excited I get."

Conan seems not to be able to hide his excitement in these cases, much like his boredom when he cannot use his brain, and [[The Final Screening Murder Case]] showed his limit is really only two hours, than he HAS to use his brain to be HAPPY.

He really only seems happy when he is able to use his brain or with Ran, and even then, there are lots of idiots in his world, not saying names though. Even though she is not one usually.

Thankfully, most of the culprits do use a trick or code to excite him, in contrast to a very simple one in [[The Secret of the High Sales]], which was solved by 3 real first grade children. He even stated at the end of that case, "His brain needs a smart culprit." Due to the simpleness of the culprit, he had a hard time with that case. That may explain why Haibara was uninvolved in that case, since she was aware 'the culprit' was too simple and unintellectual for Conan's level of complexity.

In fact, in [[Conan vs. Kaitou Kid]], he was bored at the talk of the thief, since "This is stupid. Thieves are boring.," and planned on going to bed, however as soon as they mentioned about a coded message of announcement, he was all ears. In fact. Even though he cracked the code at Beika Museum, in the daytime, he did not tell anyone else that they were far off the mark.

Instead, he snuck out at night in order to meet the Kid that night. Conan asked Agasa about tome information in his father's files, before meeting Kid, since he was fascinated to meet Kaito Kid, a "strange retro-thief, whose crazy enough to announce his moves."

Thankfully, there are some detectives and federal agents, where he can really show his intellectual stimuli, and this is done by them recognizing that he is the one really solving Kogoro's cases, and that he is a very smart child, even if they are unaware of who he really is:
[[Jodie Starling]], [[Shuichi Akai]]/[[Subaru Okiya]], [[James Black]], [[Miwako Sato]], [[Kansuke Yamato]], and [[Yui Uehara]], and even [[Wataru Takagi]], and the famous Shogi player, [[Shukichi Haneda]], an [[Black Organization|undercover]] [[Japanese Intelligence Agencies|Federal Agent]], [[Rei Furuya]].

It is hard to say if he can even hide his intellect and thirst for it from [[Hyoue Kuroda]], a [[Rum]] Contender, due to the fact that before their [[Kawanakajima Murder Case|first case]], Kuroda had already allowed it to be known that he was aware of Conan's deductive intelligence, by his introduction of Conan, 'The Brain behind Sleeping Kogoro' and say that Conan has a ability to crack cases by seeing what no one else does. Conan Edogawa, Detective," in front of the Nagano Policemen present. In [[Mystery of the Burning Tent]], he refers to Conan as "Sleeping Kogoro's Bag of Wisdom" to both: Ninzaburo Shiratori and Inspector Yuminaga.

As much as Conan may want to hide his intellect from Hyoue Kuroda, until he deduces Rum's identity, it may not be possible.
After all, in a case, Kuroda did tell Takagi and Megure to do whatever Conan says, and in another case, he did instruct Bourbon to answer all of Conan's questions about the case, when he realized that Conan is also investigating this case too.

=== First aid ===
Conan has repeatedly dispensed first aid to stabbed/shot/cardiac/poisoned/hurt victims before the rescuers arrive.

In [[A June Bride Murder Case]], In the manga, Conan rinses out Miss Matsumoto's mouth out with milk after he sees her collapsing, in an effort to neutralize the poison in her body. It is later stated that this bit of first aid may have been the reason to why Miss Matsumoto was discharged from the hospital sooner than anticipated. These parts are cut from the anime entirely.

In [[Scuba Diving Murder Case]], after a woman had suffered a snake bite from a water snake, Conan immediately grabbed a glass of ice tea, and gave it to those sucking out the poison, and treating her.

Although Kogoro had no knowledge of any of this, Eri told him, "Ice Tea has Tannin. The first thing to do in the case of a snake bite... is to make use of the Tannin component in tea to clean the wound and alleviate the poison." While Kogoro is flabbergasted that Conan is aware of what to do in a snake bite, Eri states, "That boy is quite sharp. Compared to people like us, sitting here with our arms folded, he's much more of an asset. More importantly, the ex-policeman here doesn't seem to know a thing about this."

In [[The Celebrities' Secret]], is the first case that does go more into detail about Conan's first aid skills, such as giving sugar sticks to a person who attempted suicide with a hypoglycemic drug, which is used to treat Diabetes. The other case that showed his first aid skills was in Scuba Diving Murder Case, when he quickly grabbed a glass of ice tea, due to the needed Tannin, in order to combat the poisonous snake bite. In the other case, he handed the tea to the rescuers, however in this case, he began administering it himself.

In all three cases, the person survived, due to his first aid knowledge and skills.

However, this is just three of the cases that showcases it, or two in the anime.

=== Stamina ===
It is hard to say about his stamina, since he was shrunk down to Conan.
It obviously is not as good, when he is in his 17 year old body, since he now has the body of a 7 year old.

Without Agasa's gadgets, His strength is also that of a 7 year old too, which includes his kicking strength as well.

However, he is a very active, and maybe hyperactive little kid, who frequently uses his feet and legs, whether running, kicking, and skateboarding around the town. So his feet and leg muscles are probably stronger than when he was first shrunk, but still..., he would be toast without the professor's Gadgets, and especcially his super kick shoes.

He probably has normal stamina for a little kid, although some of the feats, and esp. in non-cannon movies, may seem to exaggerate his stamina, but even in the scene when Ran was pushed in front of a moving train, and Conan immediately jumped down, grabbed her, and dragged her to safety, he was panting afterwards.

=== Music ===
[[File:Conan singing.JPG|thumb|right|200px|Conan sings in the Karaoke.]]
Conan cannot sing on key in the slightest so he is often accused of being [[Wikipedia:tone deaf|tone deaf]]. Despite being a hilariously awful singer, Conan has [[Wikipedia:perfect pitch|perfect pitch]] and can identify notes accurately even in difficult contexts like the sound of phone button presses forming a melody. In Episode 11: The Moonlight Sonata Murder Case, he knows that the piano is in tune and deciphers a message at the end just by listening to the notes that are played. Haibara directly described Shinichi Kudo as having perfect pitch in the last scenes of the twelfth Detective Conan movie, [[Full Score of Fear]]. He also manages to replicate and sing dial tones for a phone, showing that the reason he can't sing is because he simply doesn't have ''relative'' pitch. In File 728 (Episode 614), Conan stated he isn't very knowledgeable about music but identified the untuned piano key whereupon Haibara joked about his sharp ears despite being tone-deaf.

Also, to be like his favorite detective, Sherlock Holmes, he plays the violin. This was confirmed in movie 12 of the 'Full Score of Fear' when he played "Amazing Grace" for Ran. However, he is stumped on what Ran meant when she said, "He has a funny habit when he plays."

=== Bomb defusion ===
Conan can defuse a bomb effortlessly without external instruction. This has been demonstrated once in canon, and multiple times in movies.

In The Trembling Police Headquarters: 12 Million Hostages Episode 304, when Conan was in the area with the bomb, which only he could reach, while the Bomb squad was trying to determine the kind of bomb that Conan is with, so that they can give the little boy instructions in how to disarm the bomb.

He had already began disarming it, and only stopped, when he realized if he waited until 3 seconds before the detonation, he will receive a hint as to the location of another bomb, so he hesitated, and discovered that it was Teitan High School, with the letters E-V-I-T. He also managed to disarm it before it blew up.

=== Criminal psychology ===
Conan shows a keen understanding for criminal psychology, occasionally being able to sense if someone is the true criminal. He can also predict movement and plan of the criminals, and in some cases, he used this skill to "bluff". By deliberately giving wrong deduction, he managed to make the criminal reveal the key evidence of the case, confess, abandon suicide's attempt, or lead them to the wrong ends (if they are chasing Conan).

In non canon, it was shown that if the criminal doesn't conform to the general intellectual pattern, Conan will have trouble deducing their crime, even if it is so obvious that the Detective Boys can deduce perfectly.

[[File:Conan First met Kaito Kid.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan introduces himself to Kaito Kid when they first met. "Conan Edogawa, a detective!" in [[Episode One: The Great Detective Turned Small|Episode One]].]]

=== Reverse Psychology ===
In the Clash of Red and Black Arc, he planned along with Shuichi how to replace Kir ack undercover in the Black Organization, without telling the rest of the FBI until it was over, however he did have to outhink Gin.

He really had to outthink Gin, and implement Reverse Psychology, if not Reverse Reverse Psychology when planning Akai's Faked death at Railla Pass.

They knew that Kir would have to prove herself by killing Akai, and that Gin always kills with headshots, so he would demand that of her.

He also knew it would be at Railla Pass, and used Kusada's body, thanks to that spy shooting himself in the head and commiting suicide.

He also knew since Kusada had already touched his phone, make it look to the other FBI Members that Akai touched Conan's phone, but Akai had some substance to keep his fingerprints off of it entirely.

In short, Conan had to predict what Gin would demand and where at, along with Kir and Akai, and at the same time, making Gin think that it is all "his own idea."

The only ones allowed in on the following secrets:

Placing Kir back undercover:
Conan, who planned it
Akai
Kir
Andre Camel, who had to drive her.

The other FBI members did not find out until she was placed back undercover, otherwise, they may have given the act away.

Akai's Faked Death:
Conan, who planned it, and even arranged Akai to meet his Mom and Agasa somewhere else to help his new disguise.
Kir, who was to kill him in order to prove herself to Gin
Akai, who was to die
James Black, who noticed the glue or substance to Akai's fingertips, just prior to the fateful meeting.

No one else was let in on that secret at all, until the scarlet episodes, when Jodie and Camel finally learned about it, including Bourbon, who figured it out due to his own keen observation skills.

=== "7 Children" or "[[Nanatsu no Ko]]" Alertness ===
This can also be called the Boss's E-Mail Address Alertness as well.

After Conan's confrontation with Vermouth, when he appeared to still be unconscious from his own tranquilizer dart, he heard her press the digits on her cell phone in order to reply to "BOSS" of the Black Organization at the end of Head to Head Halloween Party episode.

He remembered the sounds of the digits being pressed when she was dialing the boss's e-mail address in order to respond to a message that he had sent her.

Conan may be tone deaf, but he does have Perfect Pitch and can recognize the tune of the Boss's e-mail address.

At the end of The Dissonance of the Stradivarius Episode 387, he found out those digits are for the song of "7 Children" or "Nanatsu no Ko," which happens to the the Boss of the Black Organization's E-mail address.

He can recognize that tune in an instant, and immediately is on the hunt for the Black Organization Member, who just e-mailed their Boss.
He cannot even pretend to act normally when he hears this tune.

Even just the first four digits place him on high alert, before he discovered the name of the tune.

Even though Haibara stated that the e-mail address is a Pandora Box, which should never be opened, or dialed.

Since he can recognize the Boss's e-mail immediately, which has shown a number of times:

After his bug and transmitter, accidentally fell on the ground, and Rena stepped on it, he immediately heard her dial the Boss's e-mail address, and found out her code name of Kir, among other stuff.

That tune also came in handy at finding out that a Black Organization Spy had infiltrated Haido Central Hospital, where Kir was hospitalized due to the e-mail being dialed.

Even in the Non-cannon movie: The Raven Chaser, after Conan found out that the Boss's E-mailed had been dialed, he immediatley chased after a disguised Vermouth, and saw her enter Gin's Porsch. Unfortunately, Irish, another disguised Black Organization Member, who was impersonating the Superintendant Kiyonaga Matsumoto, noticed Conan's behavior, and immediately began investigating Conan, and he even managed to obtain Conan's fingerprints and match them to Kudo Shinichi's fingerprints, when he held that mask and helmet in the Desperate Revival Festival, earlier.
He may not have noticed, if it was not for the Panic Mode or Near Panic Mode that this number and song instills in Conan.

=== Computer skills ===
Conan has some programming skills, for being able to create Mouri Detective Agency's website. He doesn't have the knowledge of hacking, at least he is not able to crack Black Organization's encrypted data.

=== Kaitou Kid radar ===
Conan occasionally seems to be able to sense if [[Kaitou Kid]] is present at a crime scene.<ref>Black Star</ref><ref>Luna Memoria File 964 page 10</ref> Unlike [[Shiho Miyano#"Black Organization sense"|Haibara's "Black Organization smell" sense]], Conan's Kid detector isn't very reliable.

=== Codebreaker and Codewriter ===
He is great at discovering codes, as well as deciphering them.

He frequently is able to deciphering Kid's codes, among many others.
In the paper airplane episode, Subaru and Conan, both managed to decipher the aiplanes' codes at about the same time.
In The Trembling Police Headquarters: 12 Million Hostages Episode 304, he was also able to decipher from E-V-I-T, that the next bomb was Teitan High School.

He has even been shown to be able to write codes as well.

In Sweet and Cold Delivery Service, when Conan, Haibara, Mitsuhiko, Genta, and Ayumi, were locked in a freezing delivery van, without their cell phones, and all they had on hand were some odds and ends, taxi receipt, and Tails, the cat,.

Conan managed to create a code out of the Taxi Receipt, which would look like trash to almost everyone, except the only person, who would be able to decipher it in an instant, BOURBON, who works at Cafe Poirot, and Tails makes his stop there everyday at around this time. The code basically read, COR...P..SE," and the license plate number.

He then placed the note in Tails' collar, who managed to escape. However, when Azusa was about to hand the note to Amuro, it blew away in the wind, only for Bourbon to find out the spelling from Azusa, and pieced together instantly, "Corpse." After Azusa stated that Conan knows the cat comes here everyday, he took the rest of the day off work to track the note using his Wind App, taking into account the location of building.

While Amuro was still tracking that note, the kids were getting in even worse shape, since they are freezing, and most likely none of Conan's gadgets would work.

Conan remembered the cake that Agasa ordered for a delivery at a special time, located it, and wrote a message to redirect the cake to the Kudo Residence, where Subaru is living, and redirected it, "In care of Mr Kudu," and even added a message in the customer's copy of the receipt so that Subaru would know that they are trapped in the delivery van.

Subaru sent a package, which was really a cell phone to help the kids, and ... It is a good thing that Amuro managed to track the delivery van, but he simply acted like he was passing by, and told the kids that the wind blew away their message.

After disabling the culprits, Conan was able to use that phone to call the police.

== Appellations ==
Although most people will call Conan by his name suffixed with ''-kun'', or simply ''kid'', a lot of the characters have different ways of calling him due to the special relationships they share. The following is a list of the different appellations for Conan (and the ones Conan gives in return) encountered in the series.

== Plot overview ==
=== Initial pursuit ===
After Shinichi becomes Conan, he sets out to find the men in black almost immediately. At the suggestion of Agasa, he moves in with Ran and Kogoro, hoping that cases related to them come by. Pretty soon, a case involving a woman name [[Akemi Miyano]] (using the alias Masami Hirota) appears. Akemi robs a bank for the men in black in the hopes that they will free her sister from their organization. Conan is unable to realize the case's connection to the organization until after the men in black have shot Akemi and left her for dead rather than give up such a valuable asset as her sister. In her dying moments, Akemi warns Conan of the danger of the organization.<ref>[[Volume 2#File 013 - The Missing Man|Volume 2, Files 13-16: "The Missing Man"]]</ref>

Conan runs across the men in black again on a bullet train, this time learning their codenames: [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]].

At a game convention, Conan meets a third man in black named [[Tequila]], only to have him die in an explosion meant for someone else. Conan learns about a meeting place from the murderer, but just before he reaches the bar an explosion set by the men in black destroys the place entirely, leaving Conan without any leads.

=== Introduction of Ai Haibara===
Later on, Conan meets child-size biochemist [[Ai Haibara]], the creator of [[APTX 4869]]. Ai grew up within the Black Organization as [[Shiho Miyano]] and is a former member of it along with her deceased sister, Akemi.<ref name="f178">[[Volume_18#File 178 - Code Name Sherry|Volume 18, File 178: "Code Name Sherry"]]</ref> After Akemi died, Shiho refused to keep working and took APTX 4869 to die before the Black Organization could execute her. Instead, she shrinks like Conan did and is adopted by Agasa so she and Conan can work together to find a cure and catch the men in black.

However, when she really introduced herself to him at night in front of the Kudo and Agasa's house, she did it in a way, where she showed that she can be quite evil, like the rest of the Black Organization, even telling him that Agasa, who is his lifeline to being a detective in his child's body is dead, really freaking him out. When he went to Agasa, he was alive and well, and all three spoke, but ...

After the professor case, he saw her real tears, when she was crying in his shirt, and since then their relationship has improved dramatically, and they even protect each other.

She is also helping him to be more cautious than his initial, "The Black Organization is involved. I am scared, but I will hunt them down, and try and get the antidote," without thinking of the consequences.

He is still determined to take down that organization, but he is now wiser than he was at in, whereas, she is more inclined to err on the side of caution, "Stop. Don't Go. Stay out of this," which will not take the organization down, but may keep them safer.

In regards toe the Black Organization, they both have a tendency to withhold information in order to protect the other one.
It is difficult to know just how much she knows of the Organization's leaders and such, but she feels if she tells him anything, until it comes up, he may carelessly act on it.

When Conan found out that 7 children was the Boss's e-mail address, his initial thought was to have Takagi investigate it, until she told him that "He will die. Takagi as soon as he reaches that person, and then they will find out who gave him that number, and you will die next.
The e-mail address is a Pandora's box that should never be opened.

In return, Conan protects her a lot in regards to the organization: saving her life, withholding risky information, and coming up with plans to save her life, when she has been found out, and trying to hide her from them.

=== Meeting with the Black Organization ===
In [[Reunion with the Black Organization]] Conan and Haibara crossed paths with them at an hotel party while they were trying to prevent someone from dying at the hands of the organization. While there Haibara is kidnapped by one of the members of the organization [[Pisco]]. Conan manages to save Haibara and also learn about [[Anokata]]

=== After Vermouth ===

=== The Phone Number of 'That Person' ===
After Conan solves a [[The Dissonance of the Stradivarius#Postlude|case]] of serial murders, the [[Kyosuke Haga#Friends and acquaintances|culprit]] tells Conan that the tune created by dialing the phone number for the Leader of the Black Organization is the song "[[Seven Children]]".

=== Returning Back to Shinichi ===
Throughout the series Conan has returned back to Shinichi several times, but never permanently.
==== East versus West Detective ====
First he temporary returns to normal after drinking alcohol while infected with a cold.<ref>[[Diplomat Murder Case|Episodes 48-49: Diplomat Murder Case]].</ref>
He quickly turns back into Conan after solving the case and develops an immunity to the alcohol.

==== Desperate revival ====
{{Main|Prototype antidote}}
Haibara invented an [[Prototype antidote|antidote]] prototype for the APTX 4869, and Conan first uses it in [[Volume 26]] to conceal his identity and allay Ran's suspicions that he is Shinichi. Haibara disguises as Conan and appears in front of Ran with Shinichi in order to put Ran's fears to rest.<ref>[[The Desperate Revival|Episodes 191-193: The Desperate Revival]].</ref><ref>[[Volume 26#File 256 - Concealed Truth|Volume 26, Files 256-258: "Concealed Truth"]]</ref>

==== Shiragami case ====
The antidote prototype is again taken, this time accidentally in place of cough syrup. It wears off 24 hours later, with Haibara giving him another one to protect his identity. This time it wears off in a shortened 4 hours, once again interrupting his chance to confess his feelings to Ran.<ref>[[Volume 62#File 647 - The Lost Memory|Volumes 62-63, Files 647-654: "The Lost Memory"]]</ref>

==== London Arc ====
During the Holmes' Revelation arc in London, Conan takes an antidote so he can go overseas, because "Conan Edogawa" does not exist in real life, and has no passport. Ran quickly deduces that Shinichi is in London as well. She asks some Londoners about a Japanese boy, and they give her directions, without specifying it was actually a six-year-old they saw. In a phone booth, Conan takes the pill originally meant for his return trip to Tokyo in order to conceal his identity from Ran. During this time, he manages to confess his feelings to her. Luckily for Conan, Haibara asks Yusaku and Yukiko Kudo, his parents, to go to London and give him a third pill, as she guessed he would have used his spare one for Ran.<ref>[[Holmes' Revelation|Episode 616-621]]</ref><ref>[[Volume 71#Following Holmes|Volume 71, Files 743-751]]</ref><ref>[[Volume 72#Following Holmes|Volume 72, File 752]]</ref>

==== Ran Mouri ====
[[File:Ran and Conan.jpg|thumb|200px|Ran holding Conan.]]
{{main|Shinichi Kudo and Ran Mouri}}
Although they are romantic interests as Shinichi and Ran, Conan and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] share a brother/sister kind of relationship. Ran plays a nurturing protective role and treats Conan like a child version of Shinichi. They do a lot of activities together, such as swimming, going to the movies or festivals, and more. Ran and Conan both look out for each other's well-being. Ran stands up for Conan during Kogoro's outbursts and destroys any criminals seeking to inflict harm on Conan with her karate. Conan lends an ear and advice when Ran is in an difficult situation or needs to vent, and he comforts and encourages her when she is feeling down, especially about Shinichi being away for so long. It is even likely that Ran subconsciously knows that Conan actually ''is'' Shinichi, even though she seems reluctant to follow that notion.<ref>Ran told Conan that if only he is Shinichi on Episode 308.</ref>
{{clearright}}

==== Kogoro Mouri ====
[[File:Kogoro noticing Conan in the car.jpg|thumb|200px|Kogoro noticing Conan in the car.]]
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] and Conan most often see each other as nuisances. Conan dislikes Kogoro's usually poor detective ability and case handling, slovenly personal habits, and overinflated ego. Kogoro's deduction doesn't seem to improve so Conan almost always needs to knock Kogoro out when he starts spouting off incorrect theories. Although in most cases Conan merely sees Kogoro as a drunk idiot, he often is impressed when Kogoro gets serious and actually gets the case right, so he will allow the "non-sleeping Kogoro" to take the spotlight. Kogoro views Conan as a freeloader who constantly gets underfoot and never fails to insinuate himself at cases, "interfere" with the scene, and pipe up with childish observations that consistently ruin Kogoro's deductions. Sometimes, Kogoro will also grab Conan by the jacket, leave him outside, or knock him on the head if he is too nosy when involved in a case. However, their relationship is actually intimate and Kogoro takes care of Conan just like a member of the house. At times when Conan is in danger or his life is in peril, Kogoro is seen to be visibly distressed, focused only on getting Conan back. In one episode where Conan was kidnapped, put into a car, and the car was in the process of being crushed, Kogoro was even in tears at Conan's apparent death but then rejoiced tearfully when he was shown to be unharmed.
Conan in return does everything in his power to protect Kogoro from getting into troubles with the Black Organization, saving his life multiple times whenever Kogoro unknowingly gets involved with them.
They are usually seen going to cases together (probably because Conan sneaks along with Kogoro, inserts himself into the case, or simply annoys Kogoro enough to bring him) and sometimes they'll follow Ran whenever they think she might be off to see a boy or "that detective brat" as Kogoro refers to Shinichi.
{{clearright}}

==== Yusaku and Yukiko Kudo ====
[[File:783-2.jpg|thumb|200px|Yukiko nearly calls Conan "Shinichi" in public]]
Conan's parents, [[Yusaku Kudo|Yusaku]] and [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]], like to push their child towards becoming an even better detective. They enjoy giving him challenges, typically without letting Conan know who's giving them; once they disguised as Black Organization operatives trying to kill Shinichi Kudo in order to show Conan how dangerous his goals are. However after seeing that their son is determent to dive into the matter, they decide to follow his wish, and even helps him out with disguises and plans.

Yukiko loves to meddle in Conan's (and Shinichi's) love life, as she will often make allusions regarding Ran being her possible future daughter-in-law and Ai or Ayumi having feelings for Conan. He doesn't usually pay much attention to them. Once she told Conan that Ai has romantic feelings for him because she looked at him ten times in a short span of time, saying that the only time a girl would do that is if she likes the boy or the boy has something on his face. Conan simply pushes it off as Ai checking on her "lab mouse," but at night, in bed, Conan asks Ai if he has something on his face.

Yukiko helped him out once to keep his secret identity from being exposed to Ran by creating an alibi for him. Yukiko once nearly called Conan "Shinichi" in public but Conan was able to cover it by creating a distraction.
{{clearright}}

==== Hiroshi Agasa ====
[[image:Agasa and Conan investigating.png|thumb|right|200px|Conan investigates with Agasa.]]
Conan treats [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]] as a member of his own family, like an uncle. Due to the fact that they both share the secret behind Shinichi's transformation and knowledge about the Black Organization, Conan often comes to him when in trouble or seeking for help. Agasa's willingness to help whenever possible makes Shinichi's life as Conan more convenient. He was the one who created most of Conan's gadgets, including his power shoes and tracking glasses. He willingly plays Conan's case solving mouthpiece when Conan lacks someone else convenient to use. When Conan needs something, such as information regarding past cases, he usually asks Agasa to get it. Agasa often acts as a chauffeur because he is trustworthy and the only adult with a car regularly available.

Agasa often worries about Shinichi, especially when he thinks Shinichi might be getting over his head. Agasa almost always responds positively to Shinichi's requests, but doesn't like it when Shinichi hides the reasons for it, especially if it is dangerous.
{{clearright}}

==== "Shinichi Kudo" ====
[[File:EP398 2.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan and Shinichi.]]
They never meet each other for obvious reasons: Conan is Shinichi's secret identity. However, since Conan tries to act as a child, he often thinks Shinichi as a separate character (in one episode, when Ran claims to go to a date with Shinichi, Conan bids goodbye, oblivious for a while that he is actually Shinichi). Judging from his completely made up speech, Conan talks to Shinichi frequently by phone and learns a lot of skills and knowledge from him, and Conan really admires and loves Shinichi. In turn, Shinichi is willing to satiate Conan's curiosity, but at one point he gets really annoyed for Conan's inquisitiveness.

==== Heiji Hattori ====
[[Image:Heiji teasing Conan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Heiji enjoys teasing Conan.]]
When they first meet, Conan and [[Heiji Hattori|Heiji]] seem bound to become lifelong rivals, especially after Kudo beats Heiji in their first case. However, after discovering Conan's real identity, Heiji starts to act like an older brother towards him, much to the annoyance of Conan. Since then, the two have become closest friends, and consult one another on cases, developments concerning the Black Organization, and even their "girlfriends". They tend to stick together on cases, although sometimes this is because Heiji forces the less enthusiastic Conan to come along. While fond of Heiji as a fellow detective he can relate to, Conan finds Heiji's antics occasionally annoying. Much to Conan's chagrin, Heiji even convinces others that Conan is his disciple. Conan especially dislikes Heiji's dangerous habit of unthinkingly calling Conan 'Kudo' when others are present.

Heiji still maintains some of his original feelings of rivalry, and gets annoyed if anyone claims Shinichi is better , and will often go to great lengths to show that the "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. Despite his teasing, Conan/Shinichi genuinely thinks Kazuha and Heiji would make a great couple.

==== Sonoko Suzuki ====
She frequently talks to him like a brat and primary school kid, and he thinks of her as annoying.

==== Masumi Sera ====
Masumi Sera is like an older sister figure to Conan. She knows that Conan is actually Shinichi Kudo. She is a mystery but is revealed to be the sister of Shuichi Akai and Shukichi Haneda. Conan takes Sera to be like a fellow detective, similar to how he treats Heiji and Saguru. Sera in return, is very protective of him and also seems to have a crush on him, calling him a "wizard"; because when they first met 10 years ago, Shinichi/Conan was able to make her brother Shuichi laugh when she couldn't.

==== Eisuke Hondou ====
Eisuke discovered that Conan is the real Sleeping Kogoro before they even first met. Conan found him suspicious due to his resemblance of Rena Mizunashi. Eisuke was quick to notice that Conan's behavior towards Ran was similar to that of a protective boyfriend and decided to monitor him. Eventually, Conan found that he is the younger brother of Rena who is a member of CIA infiltrating the organization, the relationship between the two seems to have improved somehow after Conan reveals his identity to Eisuke without hesitating refusing his offer to take Ran with him in America. At that moment, Eisuke confesses to Conan in an amicable way that he was aware from the beginning that he was sleeping Kogoro and Shinichi Kudo. He asked Conan to take care of Ran and the two leave on good terms.

==== Shukichi Haneda ====
Shukichi seems to have noticed Conan's intelligence and trusted his deductions the first time they met. Shinichi has met Shukichi in the past as a child, so it's possible that Shukichi might recognize him as Conan because of his memorization skills, and also due to Shukichi calling Conan a Wizard, the same nickname that Masumi attributed to Shinichi when they met 10 years ago.

=== Detective Boys ===
[[File:Conan and Ai.jpg|thumb|200px|Conan and Haibara investigating]]
[[File:conan scary face.png|thumb|left|200px|Conan's scary face when he's intending to know Haibara's secret song]]
==== Ai Haibara ====
{{main|Conan Edogawa and Ai Haibara}}
Both are de-aged by APTX4869 and have almost equal levels of intelligence, which makes [[Ai Haibara]] and Conan close confidants and more empathetic with each other than most other characters. They share an interesting relationship. They believe and rely on each other. She certainly has no qualms about teasing him, and is more than willing to poke a hole in his ego. While Conan initially was disgusted by Ai's ties to the Black Organization, especially with how she introduced herself, seeing her remorse and pain has improved his opinion of her. He is repeatedly protective of her and tries to give her hope when her fear of the men in black is overwhelming.

However, when she really introduced herself to him at night in front of the [[Kudo]] and [[Agasa|Agasa's]] house, she did it in a way, where she showed that she can be quite evil, like the rest of the [[Black Organization]], even telling him that Agasa, who is his lifeline to being a detective in his child's body is dead, really freaking him out. When he went to Agasa, he was alive and well, and all three spoke, but ...

After the professor case, he saw her real tears, when she was crying in his shirt, and since then their relationship has improved dramatically, and they even protect each other.

She is also helping him to be more cautious than his initial, "The Black Organization is involved. I am scared, but I will hunt them down, and try and get the antidote," without thinking of the consequences.

He is still determined to take down that organization, but he is now wiser than he was at in, whereas, she is more inclined to err on the side of caution, "Stop. Don't Go. Stay out of this," which will not take the organization down, but may keep them safer.

In regards toe the Black Organization, they both have a tendency to withhold information in order to protect the other one.
It is difficult to know just how much she knows of the Organization's leaders and such, but she feels if she tells him anything, until it comes up, he may carelessly act on it.

When Conan found out that [[Nanatsu no Ko|7 children]] was the [[Boss]]'s e-mail address, his initial thought was to have [[Takagi]] investigate it, until she told him that "He will die. Takagi as soon as he reaches that person, and then they will find out who gave him that number, and you will die next.
The e-mail address is a Pandora's box that should never be opened.

In return, Conan protects her a lot in regards to the organization: saving her life, withholding risky information, and coming up with plans to save her life, when she has been found out, and trying to hide her from them.

==== Ayumi Yoshida ====
[[File:759-3.png|thumb|200px|Sonoko is teasing Conan about Ayumi]]
{{main|Conan Edogawa and Ayumi Yoshida}}
Conan grows to respect the little girl in his class for her sharp wit and observational skills, along with the other members of the [[Detective Boys]]. [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]] in turn clearly seems to like Conan and isn't aware that the other two Detective Boys are jealous of him because of this. Sonoko is also thinking the same after Sera teased Conan about the girl he likes.

==== Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya and Genta Kojima ====
[[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]] sees Conan as a role model, someone he looks up to. [[Genta Kojima|Genta]], and more so Mitsuhiko, are often impressed by Conan's vast knowledge and incredible deduction skills. However, they both become quite jealous of Conan whenever Ayumi shows gestures of affection towards him (usually a small kiss on the cheek). While Conan initially only tolerated their presence, he has grown fond of them despite their relative immaturity.
In a case, where Genta's father was a suspect, Conan decided to solve the case without telling the other, because he didn't want Genta to worry about his father being a suspect for murder.

=== Law enforcement ===
==== Police ====
[[File:Megure and Conan Relationship.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Megure waffles between treating Conan like a child and a detective]]
With the exception of a few inspectors, most listen to the little clues that Conan points out. After a while, Conan gets the attention of the whole Tokyo police department for noticing things even pros miss. [[Wataru Takagi]] in particular has taken to trusting Conan completely and doing whatever Conan asks him to without hesitation. Even [[Sato]] also treats him more like a detective.

In fact, even when Takagi is hesitant to do what Conan asks of him, as soon as Sato hears Conan's name, she immediately will take action or give him information sometimes.

After [[Hyoue Kuroda]] became the superintendent of the Tokyo Prefecture, he has told Takagi and [[Megure]] to do what Conan asks of them in the [[The Actress Blogger's Locked Room Case|Actress Blogger Case]].

He even periodically referrs to Conan as "Sleeping Kogoro's Bag of Wisdom" in front of the other police officers, such as: Nagano Police Prefecture Officers, [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] and Inspector [[Yuminaga]], as well as Bourbon, who he instructed to answer all of Conan's questions, when he realized that Conan was also investigating the case of [[The Target is the Metropolitan Police Traffic Department]].

==== Wataru Takagi ====
Wataru Takagi is the only police officer who has come the closest to finding out about [[Conan]]'s identity.

In [[Episode 258|The Man From Chicago]], When Conan is telling the police officers present about the Panda colors of the Police Cars, and that the younger generation may not know this information about their black and white cars, Takagi asks himself, "What generation is this kid from?"

In episode 304 ,while they waited for the elevator bomb's clock to run down to give the final clue to stop the greater crime. Takagi asked Conan about his real identity to which Conan answered that he would in the afterlife.

He also is aware of Conan's sharp intelligence and takes him seriously so as to take him for questioning the suspects. He trusts Conan so much that he would take him seriously.

Takagi has also come to acknowledge Conan's sharp mind and intellect, taking Conan's observations seriously and even allowing him to accompany him to question suspects, most notably during the New Scar and the Whistling Man Case where he has the rest of the Detective Boys remain in the car.

Conan also fully supports Takagi's relationship with Sato, at one point orchestrated a plan to foil [[Shiratori]]'s attempt of an arranged marriage with [[Sato]]. When asked for reasons, he didn't answer, but quietly relate the experience with Ran's relationship.

==== Miwako Sato ====
[[File:EP424 5.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Miwako and Conan during a case Investigation]]

She had developed deep trust of Conan and his intelligence from her real first time investigating with him, and seeing him in action in the case of [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story]].

Even when Takagi is hesitant to do as Conan says, unquestioningly, she will immediately and unhesitantly do as he says, almost all of the time, since she first met him.

==== Kansuke Yamato ====
Kansuke is one of the few police officers, who Conan can actually talk like an adult in front of.

In [[A Dangerous Party of Two]], he even told [[Yui Uehara|Yui]] Uehara that he suspects Conan of being "the one leading everything," in regards to [[Kogoro|Kogoro's]] cases, and that is after only after they met up in one case so far.

In fact, in that car ride, they were giving [[Agasa]] and [[Haibara]] a lift back to Tokyo, but he really kept taking in a Nagano dialect, using phrases that terrified Haibara, such as "Half-Kill" and "Over-Kill, which dealt with a kind of Mochi, and not what Agasa and Haibara were thinking of."

The reason why he and Yui were heading to Tokyo was to enlist Kogoro's help with the Red Wall Case, which Yui told Conan that it was really his help they were wanting.

After hearing the discription of [[Rum|RUM]], he is concerned, he is even more aware of his one-eyed state, which is is the common description in all of Rum's descriptions.

In an episode, when one of the girls referred to Yamato of the Nagano, he though of the Rum Description, and how it applies to him, but quickly dismissed it.

The very next time that he saw Kansuke, he again was inspecting him, while thinking of Rum's Descriptions, however that really did not last any longer, esp. after Conan say Karoda, His older, bigger, scarier, one-eyed, Nagano boss, who happens to like tea. Even Kansuke says, "[[Kuroda Hyoe|Kuroda]] looks like the boss of some organization."

==== Hyoue Kuroda ====
[[Kuroda]] is aware how good Conan is as a detective, calling him " Sleeping Kogoro's bag of wisdom", he also trusts his deductions and have already ordered the Tokyo police to follow Conan's Instructions.

On the other hand, Conan is suspicious of Kuroda because he almost matches [[Rum]]'s description, he also became shocked that Kuroda became the Superintendent of Tokyo Police in [[Matsumoto]]'s place.

In [[Kawanakajima Murder Case]], which was his first appearance, he already knew that Conan was 'The Brain behind Sleeping Kogoro,' and stated an entire dialogue stating his knowledge of Edogawa Conan in front of the Nagano Police Officers present, in his first speech to Conan.

In [[Mystery of the Burning Tent|Mystery of the Burning Tent ]], He refers to Conan as "Sleeping Kogoro's Bag of Wisdom" to both: [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]] and [[Inspector Yuminaga]].

In [[The Target is the Metropolitan Police Traffic Department]], he also instructed [[Bourbon]] to answer all of Conan's questions, when he realized that Conan was also investigating the case as well.

=== FBI ===
The FBI contains most of the few people that Conan acts normally around despite them not knowing his identity. Conan seems to place trust in the FBI, and occasionally helps in their operations.

==== Jodie Starling ====
[[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] nicknamed Conan "Cool Kid" and Conan (despite being wary when he first met her) now places complete trust in Jodie. Jodie has also called Conan to share what would normally be classified information, notifying him of a new Black Organization member, Bourbon.

==== Shuichi Akai/Subaru Okiya ====
[[File:The Scarlet Return-Shuichi and Conan.jpg|right|thumb|200px|Shuichi and Conan ([[The Scarlet Return|Ep. 782]])]]
[[Shuichi Akai|Shuichi]] has been shown to respect Conan's detective skills. Together they hatched a plan to send Hidemi Hondou back into the organization and fake Akai's death. He has discovered that Conan and Shinichi are one and the same by spying on him in a [[Volume 77#File 814 - Conan-kun, Right?|recent plot line]]. Conan once says to Shuichi, "I'm glad you're an ally."

=== Black Organization ===
==== Gin and Vodka ====
Even though [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]] do not yet know who's interfering with their operations, Gin has been shown to be curious who "that guy" is, referring to Conan. In the movie [[The Raven Chaser]], Gin tries to catch a glimpse of Conan's face from a helicopter, but fails when Conan successfully downs the helicopter. Conan seems to have a very bitter hatred towards them, and this only increases as more people are targeted by the Black Organization.

In [[Reunion with the Black Organization|Reunion of the Black Organization]], Gin had to shoot himself in the arm in order to stay awake, after he was shot with Conan's tranquilizer dart.
He also found Conan's bug and transmitter in his car, however due to a strand of [[Haibara Ai|Haibara's]] hair, he is convinced it was [[Shiho Miyano|Sherry]], who planted them.

In [[Contact with the Black Organization]], Gin told Vodka "You have to be always on guard. It seems there is Someone investigating about us, a Detective clever as a Fox," without being aware that it happens to apparently be a 7 year old little child.

In [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out ]], he found Conan's bug and transmitter on [[Kir|Kir's]] shoe, and immediately planned to exterminate [[Kogoro Mouri]], who he was convinced left the bug. When Conan kicked a soccer ball into the Detective Agency window, Gin decided to add another victim, the little kid. Thankfully, [[Akai]] made him think the bug and transmitter were planted by the FBI, which saved them both.

==== Vermouth ====
[[Vermouth]] seems to have great personal interest in Conan, referring to him as the Black Organization's 'Silver Bullet' and her "Cool Guy."

She also protects Conan, probably because when she was disguising as a serial killer in New York she was saved by Conan (Shinichi at the time) and Ran.

When the Organization plans on killing [[Kogoro]], and later Conan, she strongly objects to a degree where Gin suspects whether Kogoro is related to Vermouth.

Because of this, Conan does not react strongly when she is mentioned, as opposed to [[Haibara]]. He also seems to consider her less of a threat than the other members because he is able to bargain with her about Haibara and knows Vermouth is keeping his secret for personal reasons.

In [[Head-to-Head Match with the Black Organization: A Dual Mystery on a Full Moon Night|Head-to Head]], After Conan removed his Haibara mask, he was distracted, when Haibara showed up on the scene, which gave Vermouth the needed opening to use his stun gun wrist watch on him, to place him to sleep, before gently sitting him down beside the car, so he does not get hurt in the fall.

She also destroyed the box that he was connected to by many wires, so as not to possibly accidentally kill or hurt him, which pulling out the wires would have, according to Conan.

After she used sleeping gas, in order to knock him back out, so that she can escape, and not lead the Black Organization members to him.

She even covered the sleeping boy up with her coat, so that he would not get sick, since she had literally cut his shirt wide open, in order to see the wires and connected box, which may have made him sick, if he is not found right away, since it is pretty cold, and colds are spreading at this time.

She shot herself in the leg, and had to hobble some distance away from the car, so that he would remain out of sight, and no where around her, when Gin came to pick her up.

In [[the Raven Chaser]], she even provided Conan with the name of [[Irish]], and gave him a little bit of information of why the Organization is interested in this serial murder case.

In [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out|Black Impact]], when she was speaking on the cell phone to [[Gin]], she mentioned hearing noise, and then she thought that Conan may have had something to do with the noise coming from Gin's car, and when Gin asked about what noise, she quickly "Never mind. It is nothing," in order to protect Conan.

==== Bourbon ====
[[Rei Furuya|Tooru Amuro]] (codenamed Bourbon) has attached himself to the [[Mouri Detective Agency]] as [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]]'s "apprentice". Conan initially treats him in a somewhat friendly manner, though he privately thinks "another annoying person's showed up" when he learns Amuro will be joining Kogoro on cases.

After learning of [[Episode 704|Amuro's membership in the Black Organization]], though, Conan has been relatively nervous about him being near [[Ran Mouri|Ran]].

This was made even worse in [[Conan in a Locked Room|Bourbon Figures it Out]], when Bourbon caught him attempting to tranquilize Kogoro, but due to Bourbon's attentiveness, he was unable to, and had to give hints to Kogoro instead, but ... Although Amuro may not have seen the trick, he became convinced that Conan was the puppeteer behind Sleeping Kogoro, and began investigating Conan, which only made Conan more nervous of him.

Conan's become more cautious and is somewhat confused by Amuro's helpful behavior, though he attempts to pretend nothing has changed unsuccessfully.

It does not help that at this period of time, Bourbon also began investigating the disappearance of Black Organization Spy [[Rikumichi Kusuda]], who went missing after becoming a patient at the [[Haido Central Hospital]], which may have been due to a disquised Bourbon placing a bug on Jodie in [[Jodie's Memories and the Cherry Blossom Viewing Trap]], when [[Jodie Starling|she]] is conversing with Conan, and they mentioned how Conan helped the FBI discover the identity of the Black Organization Spy, and he was close enough that he may have also picked up Conan revealing his identity of Bourbon to Jodie, and asking her to have the FBI investigate him, just prior to the bugging.

https://imgbox.com/porpWIfh

In the above picture at the shrine, when Conan was using [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]] for his deduction, Conan was standing behind Agasa. A disguised Bourbon was standing in front of the crowd, although he may have repositioned himself slightly to see Conan speaking behind a wide awake 'Lip syncing" Agasa.

He told [[Vermouth]] that Conan is a terrifying man.

In [[Kogoro in the Bar]] and [[Bathroom Where Ran Collapsed As Well]], Conan discovered that it must have been a disguised Bourbon and Vermouth, who was at the shrine along with him and Jodie, and he was literally in a panic mode for a bit.

His bond with Amuro later seemed to improve when he learns that Amuro is actually an undercover operative from Japanese Secret Police when the two exchange smiles in Café Poirot.<ref>[[Volume 85#File 897 - Scarlet Truth|Volumes 85, File 897: "Scarlet Truth"]]</ref>

By [[The Heartfelt Strap]], Conan trust Amuro enough that he actually used his Voice Changing Bow Tie in loudspeaker mode, in front of him at a beach.

As of [[The Unsolved Cocktail Case]], when Amuro broke into the Kudu home, so that he can find out information about [[Kudo Shinichi]], as ordered by [[Rum]], and had the altercation with an [[Akai Shuichi|unmasked Akai]], and both of [[Yusaku Kudo|Shinichi's]] [[Yukiko Kudo|parents]] turned on the light, so that the four of them can have a meeting. Currently, it is unknown what was discussed in that meeting, other than Conan planned it.

It seemed to become strained again in the movie: [[Zero the Enforcer]], however that is due to Amuro had his subordinate, [[Yuya Kazami]] of the [[Public Security Bureau|Japanese Secret Police- Public Security Bureau]], plant phony incriminating evidence against Kogoro Mouri for a bombing incident.

Conan even placed a bug on Kazami, and that bug was forcefully removed in front of him by Amuro.
It really appeared that Amuro was being a real thorn to Conan in that movie, although that was not Amuro's real intention at all.

That explosion could have been classified as an accident, which would have been impossible for the Public Security Bureau to investigate, so Amuro decided to give them a suspect. By involving Kogoro, he knew that Conan would begin investigating the explosion, which even he, himself would have a hard time investigating it himself, since he is a Black Organization Implant from the Japanese Secret Police Division-Public Security Bureau.

While Kogoro was still having legal problems, Amuro had Kazami get in contact with one of their lawyer collaborators for her to defend Kogoro, and get him off, not knowing that she hates the Public Security Bureau with a passion, and chose to betray them. In short, if the real culprit of the bombing was not found, Kogoro was not going to be getting off at all.

After a lot more appliances are going haywire, Conan came up with the fact that it is a IOT Terrorist Attack, and he even discovered the Culprit. Around this time, the Public Security Bureau allowed evidence to reach their prosecuter, that Mouri's computer may have been hacked, and he was released. (Considering the prosecuter knew it was planted in the first place, but they needed a suspect, however they also wanted to protect their suspect, which is why he was removed from the police station, and they chose to prosecute him almost as soon as he was arrested, so that they could move him to probably a more secure location.) Since they now know it is a terrorist attack, they no longer needed a phony suspect, so he was released from custody.

After Conan began his trek to meet up with the culprit, Amuro began following him, and they had a short talk, before Conan told him that he was on his way to meet the suspect.

Conan began skateboarding, followed by Amuro in his car. However, there was another IOT Terrorist attack, which affected cars and vehicles, which Amuro was caught up in. After his car did a stunt and stopped, he told Conan to continue on ahead.

However, in that movie, they both were each other's collaborators or cooperators at different times.
Amuro was Conan's when it came stopping a space shuttle thing heading back to the planet from crashing into where the Tokyo Metropolitan Headquarters, and later, where everyone was really being evacuated to.

At the end of the movie, he explained the reason that they framed Kogoro, and everything else, but the framing was so that Conan can do what he was unable to do, which is to investigate. This way, he was able to use Conan as a Collaborator, and to rely on his strength.

Although Conan stated, "You overestimate me, " it sound like their relationship is back on a positive note, before they headed opposite ways.

=== Others ===
==== Kaitou Kid ====
{{Main|Shinichi Kudo and Kaito Kuroba}}
Before being shrunk, Shinichi encountered [[Kaitou Kid]] once during the Clock Tower heist, though they did not meet face-to-face. In their next encounter, however, after Shinichi has become Conan, Kid disguises himself as Ran in order to steal the Suzuki family's Black Star pearl. When Conan corners him on the Suzuki cruise ship, Kid implies that he stole all of Ran's clothes to impersonate her, and left her naked on the deck. While this ends up being a bluff, Conan displays a much more intense desire to capture Kid in subsequent encounters. Conan stops Kid from escaping with the jewel often enough that Conan has gained reputation with the press as Kid's "natural enemy". In several instances Conan appears to be able to 'sense' Kid's presence, and seems excited by the chance to catch Kid again; appropriately, Kid seems to find Conan dangerous enough to warrant specific measures to keep him distracted.

[[File:704 20.png|thumb|200px|Kaitou Kid disguised as [[Shiho]] as requested from Conan]]

Conan does not buy in to Kid's reputation as a mysterious, uncatchable phantom, saying once "He's only a thief that uses magic",<ref>Anime Episode 515: Kaitou Kid's Teleportation Magic</ref> and encouraging police officers that Kid is only a man and he can be arrested. However, if necessary, the two can put their rivalry aside for a little while and work together.<ref>[[Kaitou Kid and the Four Masterpieces]]</ref> Conan has something of a gentleman's agreement with Kaitou Kid, in that he doesn't try to find or catch the thief outside of heists. In several instances, when Kid does Conan a favor, such as saving Genta's life<ref>[[Big Adventure in the Eccentric Mansion]]</ref>, Conan reciprocates by halting his investigation just shy of capturing Kid, thereby allowing him to escape mostly unhindered. This exchange of favors can sometimes become a bit unbalanced; in exchange for not giving Kid away on a train Conan has Kid face down the [[Black Organization]] in disguise, and because Kid narrowly escapes an explosion with his life, he says that Conan now owes ''him'' one.<ref>Manga [[Volume 78]], File 7 (824): "Mystery Train (Final Destination)"</ref>

In the non-[[canon]] movies, it is implied that Kid knows Conan's identity; he even helps Conan maintain his cover by disguising himself as Shinichi so that a suspicious Ran would stop suspecting Conan.

==== [[Mary Sera]] ====
Conan has been trying to discover the truth about [[Mary]] since the day he first saw her in a picture with Masumi Sera. In "The detective boys in the grove" case, he noticed Ai's uncanny resemblance to Mary. Then, he find out that the mysterious girl is the mother of Masumi Sera, Shukichi Haneda and Shuichi Akai and the wife of Tsutomu Akai, now somehow shrunken. On the other hand, Mary remains skeptical of Conan telling her daughter to be aware of him as he isn't the same boy they met 10 years ago.

==== [[Kanenori Wakita]] ====
In his introductory case, Conan noticed that he had a medical patch on his left eye, although Wakita claims it is only temporary. He obviously chose not to see the messy left eye, along with Kogoro and Ran.

In the Search for Maria-chan!, while Conan is hiding at Agasa's due to the uproar or his appearance as Kudo Shinichi on a case, during his Kyoto Field Trip, he noticed that Wakita knocked on Agasa's door, and asked about all of the press stationed next door outside of the Kudo gate, while he claimed to be making a delivery to someone in the neighorhood.

(He could have just asked the person that his delivery was for, but no. Let's ask the Kudos' [[Agasa Hiroshi|next door neighbor]]. Plus it is highly unlikely that [[Subaru]], the supposedly DEAD FBI agent, [[Akai]], who is residing in the [[Kudo Shinichi|Kudo]] house, which is the house to the supposedly dead teenage detective, would ever order for Delivery. Take-out, maybe, but not Delivery.)

== People who know Conan's real identity ==
{{main|List of characters who know Conan's identity}}
There are only a few characters in the series who know Conan's real identity. None of them have ever betrayed Conan's identity to date. The main characters to know the secret are [[Hiroshi Agasa]], [[Yusaku Kudo]], [[Yukiko Kudo]], [[Heiji Hattori]], and [[Ai Haibara]]. [[Vermouth]] of the Black Organization also knows about Conan's secret. Later, in Episode 508 of the anime, [[Eisuke Hondou]] confirms Conan's identity as [[Shinichi Kudo]] straight from him. In manga chapter 812-814, [[Subaru Okiya]] ([[Shuichi Akai]] in disguise) confirms that Conan is Shinichi. [[Masumi Sera]] also knows that Conan is Shinichi Kudo before they even first met. It is also hinted that [[Mary]] knows about Conan's true identity, telling her daughter Masumi to be wary of him.

In the 13th movie, the Black Organization member [[Irish]] discovers that Conan is actually Shinichi Kudo.

The 3rd, 8th, 14th, 19th and 23th movies also demonstrate that [[Kaitou Kid]] apparently knows Conan's identity and acts to protect it. Though it was once unconfirmed if he knew in the manga, it was recently confirmed in the Fairy Lips case, where Kid thinks that there are "two high school detectives" on the scene, referring to Heiji, and Conan, the only other high school detective there. It is unknown how he came to figure this out.

== People who know that Conan is behind the "Sleeping Kogoro" ==
{{main|List of characters who know Conan is Sleeping Kogoro}}
There is even a varied list of those who know that Conan is the puppeteer behind the "Sleeping Kogoro."

== Gadgets ==
{{main|Gadgets}}
Professor Agasa has made many gadgets for Conan, including a tranquilizer wristwatch, voice-modulating bow tie, kick-enhancing shoes, tracking/binocular glasses, stretchable suspenders, and a solar powered skateboard. Conan uses the first two regularly to create "Sleeping Kogoro", and the glasses and other gadgets to investigate cases or catch criminals. Agasa also created radio badges and watch flashlights Conan and the other Detective Boys.

== Name origin ==
Gosho Aoyama (and Shinichi, in the story) got the name 'Conan Edogawa' from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, author of the famous Sherlock Holmes stories, and Edogawa Rampo, the pen name of Japanese mystery fiction writer Hirai Tarō. Hirai Tarō himself got the pen name "Edogawa Rampo" from a transliteration of "Edgar Allan Poe." Pronouncing Poe's name in a Japanese accent sounds like 'Edogawa Rampo.'

== Character inspiration ==
Gosho said Conan's hairstyle was designed in about one minute. He smoothed [[Yaiba]]'s hair and added a tuft modeled after the apostrophe hairstyle of Kabu from [[Wikipedia:Sally_the_Witch|Sally the Witch]]. The tuft on hair on the top of Conan's head comes from the character Shichimi in [[Wikipedia:Niji Iro Tōgarashi|Niji Iro Tōgarashi]]. Conan's clothes were modeled after [[Wikipedia:Shichi-Go-San|Shichi-Go-San (7-5-3) clothing]]. Young Gosho wore a bow tie and shorts in his Shichi-Go-San photographs. Gosho tries to restrict Conan's gadgets to what Conan can wear, but he has run out of ideas lately. The use of glasses as a disguise was modeled after [[Wikipedia:Superman|Superman]]'s Clark Kent. Conan's speech habits were meant to be slightly rough like Joe from [[Wikipedia:Ashita no Joe|Ashita no Joe]] and [[Wikipedia:Touch (manga)|Touch]].<ref>File 865 Shounen Sunday Special Booklet</ref>

== Trivia ==
* Conan's bad singing came to light as a joke after the anime began airing because Conan's voice actress [[Minami Takayama]] is a well-known singer. In [[Volume 15]] of the manga, Takayama herself is kidnapped and Conan, who sounds similar to her, tries to take her place at a concert. However, despite having similar voices, they sound completely different when it comes to singing.<ref>[[Volume 15|Volume 15, Files 144-146: "Their Voices Are Alike!?"]]</ref>
* [[Image:EP622-623 Gallery 16.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan's cellphone wallpaper - Kogoro changed it when he was drunk]]He owns two cellphones, the one he uses as Conan and one that he uses as Shinichi. He is also shown using different kinds of cellphones throughout the series.
* Conan often uses the expression "Ah-le-le?" when he is trying to point out a clue, something that is usually said by Japanese grade-schoolers. The expression was even [[The Sullied Masked Hero|said by Kogoro]] out of irritation at Conan (right before Conan tranquilized him). Conan's habit of acting juvenile to disguise his real abilities also [[Festival Dolls Dyed in the Setting Sun|draws the ire]] of the Detective Boys.
* Conan/Shinichi and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] share the same blood type as mention in episode 189.
* Conan/Shinchi's favorite drink is iced coffee as shown in Episode 814, Episode 919 etc. Shinichi's favorite drink is shown in [[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie]] when Daisuke say's that he isn't the only one who drinks iced coffee throughout the year. The lemon pie does not count as Shinichi's favorite during [[The Memories of First Love Case]] because the woman Asami Uchida, whose first love was Shinichi, told this to Ran and her specialty in the past was baking that same lemon pie that she finally perfected so Shinichi will tell her that the pie was delicious. Unless Gosho Aoyama said otherwise, the lemon pie may not be Shinichi's favorite and it was only brought up during that case alone.
* Whenever dealing with a particularly difficult case, Shinichi/Conan juggles a soccer ball to think better. In scenes where he doesn't have one, he often holds his chin with his thumb and forefinger.
* Conan/Shinichi doesn't know that ironically, due to all his secret keeping from Ran, he's potentially locked himself out of learning about Ran's own encounter(s) with the Black Organization, because she has no reason to tell 'Conan' about them. Shinichi/Conan has no idea that Ran has encountered Vermouth and saved Haibara from her, even 500+ chapters after it occurred. The fact that Haibara herself is invested in keeping Ran out of anything to do with the Black Organization only adds to this, as she deliberately lied to Conan/Shinichi about who saved her that night. Ran not knowing Conan's identity also prevents them from confiding in each other or pooling together information they might have in other areas, and thus can extend the time it takes for important realizations to come to light.
*In File 1045, it is revealed that Conan and Yumi have each other's phone numbers.
*In File 900, it is revealed that Conan and Miwako Sato have each other's phone numbers.
* According to Gosho in Super Digest Book 90+ that from time to time, Conan wears a jumper with a "K" written on which stands for "Karl Helmutt".
*No matter where Conan goes, he can't go anywhere without stumbling upon a murder or some other crime.Lampshaded after a while by whichever of the police officers happens to be on duty in that area and some of the characters:
:*Megure in particular begins to wonder if Kogoro is actually the Angel of Death, later on more accurately shifting his joking suspicions towards Conan himself as seen in Episode 549.
:*during The Final Screening Murder Case (manga chapter 222/anime episode 138) where the Detective Boys are watching movies in a theater and Ai tells Conan he should relax and enjoy a "child's vacation." When someone is killed at the back of the theater, Ai remarks, "It seems you never have time for a vacation."
:*In episode 141, Heiji says about Conan, "Every time I see that guy a case occurs," ... about thirty seconds before a scream is heard and a body discovered.
:*And during The Mystery in the Netcase (File 311-313/episodes 246-247) where the Detective Boys and Ran and Sonoko independently wind up at the same beach, Sonoko says of Conan, "The reason we didn't bring him was because there are always cases when he's around!"
:**Later in the same episode, Haibara learns where Conan and the others are after they're late returning to their hotel (having discovered a murder while she was not present) by asking the hotel staff if there is a murder being investigated nearby.
:*At the beginning of the first file of the paper airplane case, Conan notices how he seems to be running into cases all the time. This is the firsttime he's ever noticed, and this is over 600 chapters into the manga.
:*Except that in the very first chapter of the whole manga, he tells Ran that murders "happen all the time", which implies that encountering a lot of murders is normal to him. The rate of cases must have ramped up even further for him to notice that something is odd.
*In episode 681, it's revealed Conan has Detective Chiba's phone number.

Conan Edogawa and Ai Haibara

2020-12-08T15:16:52Z

West Church: /* The Significant Music Box (Manga: 261, Anime: 194) */

{{Cleanup|date=September 2013|reason=Content needs to by copywritten. There are some grammatical errors, and more appropriate word choice is needed.}}
[[Image:Op25-9.JPG|thumb|right|320px|Conan and Haibara.]]
[[Conan Edogawa]] and [[Ai Haibara]] share an interesting relationship. Initially, Conan was suspicious of Haibara for being part of the Black Organization and the inventor of [[APTX 4869]], but he has since warmed up to her as a valuable teammate and someone to confide his thoughts with when they conflict with his child cover. On her part, Haibara expresses interest in Conan's personality, intelligence, and sense of justice.

== Relationship analysis ==
[[Image:M5-18.jpg‎|thumb|right|250px|Conan refuses to sit in the machine out of fear that his and Haibara's secret will be revealed.]]
Initially, [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] mistrusts [[Shiho Miyano]], now [[Ai Haibara]], because she is a member of the [[Black Organization]] and created the deadly drug [[APTX 4869]]. [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] convinces Conan to give her a chance because she has the best chance of creating an antidote. Ai, who grew up within the Black Organization, is quite cynical at first about Conan's ideals and sense of justice, causing them to quarrel often during their early cases together. Eventually, Conan's hopeful and steadfast personality seems to bring her around.
For his part, Conan watches out for Haibara's safety, protects and rescues Haibara on multiple occasions. Despite being shrunk by the drug developed by Shiho and having his life upended, Conan only carries his hatred towards the criminal Black Organization and not to Haibara personally. He also trusts her as a confidante and values her maturity. For regular cases, they often work as an investigative team running ideas off of one another, teaming up to corner the culprit, and explaining the solution. When Haibara is around, she is usually the first to understand Conan's intelligent actions. Haibara often serves as a reality check and reminds Conan to act more like a child in order to protect his identity, and vice-versa. Curiously, they are the only pair who have disguised in each other's body, although in two different occasions.

The Black Organization is the source of the most trouble in their relationship. Because of several early situations where Haibara panicked in the presence of a nasty Black Organization member or tried to sacrifice herself, Conan developed the bad habit of downplaying the involvement of the Black Organization in various affairs in order to not upset Ai. Even though Haibara has become more resolute, Conan is still reluctant to discuss what is on his mind or his plans when it involves the Black Organization. Haibara has become keen at identifying when Conan is hiding something from her, but only rarely does Conan capitulate. Haibara in turn conceals much of what she knows about [[the boss]] and the goal of the organization, perhaps because she is worried Conan will rush in prematurely and get himself killed. In fact, she has always known that [[Renya Karasuma]] is the head of the Black Organization, but she never reveals it for Conan's safety. This mutual distrust occasionally results in situations that could have been handled better if they shared information.

Their closeness has caused a number of people taking it as they are in a "special" relationship. In canon, that includes:
* [[Ayumi Yoshida]] questioned Haibara if she liked Conan as early as Haibara's first appearances.
* [[Yukiko Kudo]] noticed Haibara staring at Conan multiple times in a day.
* [[Ran Mouri]], in a bet with Sonoko, insisted that Conan will fall for Haibara.
* [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya]] noticed Haibara and Conan often talked to each other in a level at no one else could understand.
In non canon, this also includes;
* [[Sonoko Suzuki]] (in Movie 4), asking if Haibara is Conan's new girlfriend. In canon, Sonoko bet Conan liked Ayumi.
* [[Kaoru Koda]] (in Episode 742), asking if Haibara is Conan's girlfriend, which Haibara denied.
* Umeno (in Movie 19), noticing Haibara only stared at Conan, had a conversation with Haibara and encouraged her to open up her feeling.

Even though Shinichi's single-minded focus on Ran blocks any potential romantic development, Ai has handled any feelings of jealousy gracefully. Occasionally she will tease Shinichi about his obsession with Ran. Haibara is sometimes asked by Conan for one of the protoype antidotes she created, mostly to solve relationship issues with Ran. However, Haibara very rarely grants his wishes, often teasing him about his relationship with Ran in the process. It is unclear whether Haibara withholds APTX 4869 antidotes from Conan for medical reasons, fears that he will be indiscreet as Shinichi, or to simply meddle with his love life. However, in more recent cases, Haibara has been more supportive of Shinichi and Ran's relationship, providing him the antidotes and asking other people to cover for him.

Haibara has confessed to Conan that having him around in the same situation as her is why she can stand being a six-year-old.

[[File:Ed60-4.jpg|thumb|right|180px|"Haibara shows her true feeling in the presence of Conan/Shinichi (Scene from [[Sissy_Sky|Closing60]]).]]
* Upon Haibara's arrival at Teitan Elementary School, Genta eagerly offers the seat next to him for her to sit in. But as Haibara walks towards the desks, she brushes right past Genta and takes the empty seat next to Conan, and in a monotone voice says to him, "Nice to meet you." Surprised, Conan responds with, "Yeah..."
* After class is over, the Detective Boys try to catch up with Haibara in the hallway wanting to ask her to walk home with them. Haibara ignores all of Ayumi's attempts to talk to her until she inquires about her address, to which she replies, "22 Beika Block, Second Street." Conan regards the address as familiar and remarks to himself that her house can't be too far away from where his is. Haibara then looks over her shoulder and smirks at him, surprising Conan and causing him to blush. Genta notices and asks him if he "likes that stuck-up woman", which Conan is quick to deny.
* When Ayumi and Mitsuhiko are telling Haibara about the Detective Boys, she asks, "Edogawa-kun is in it too?". Shortly after, the Detective Boys come across a case, where a fellow classmate's older brother has been missing and the child wants to find him.
* After solving the said case, Ai fires a gun through a window, causing her to get a scolding from Inspector Megure. Haibara starts fake-crying (impressively well) to get out of it. Conan walks Haibara back home to 'her house', while she is still crying. When Conan drops her off nearby her home, Haibara immediately stops crying and then starts talking about a drug called "APTX 4869". Conan is confused, as Haibara continues to ramble about the drug and how he took it. It becomes apparent that Haibara isn't a normal little girl. It is not until Haibara tells Conan that she's occupied [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]]'s house and that he's "not in this world any more" that Conan begins to panic. He tries to call Professor Agasa but doesn't get an answer, while Haibara smirks evilly in the background. Conan then leaves Haibara behind and sprints to Professor Agasa's house, hoping to find him safe, which he does. Agasa then allows Haibara to explain herself to an angry Conan. She explains about her "role" in the [[Black Organization]] and how she betrayed the organization and took the drug to escape from her prison.
* On the route towards the university professor, Conan showed deep distrust for Haibara, being a former Black Organization member and her reluctance to share information about her life and the organization.
* After exchanging information, Conan, Haibara, and Agasa plan to visit a university professor who could have accidentally been given a floppy disk containing data on the Black Organization from Haibara's elder sister. They visit his house only to find him dead in a locked room. After Conan solves the case, Agasa and Conan decide to head back home. When Conan gestures for Haibara to come along, a tear rolls down her face as she asks why he didn't help her sister. To answer a confused Conan, Haibara explains, still in tears, that Hirota Masami was a fake name that her sister took from the now-deceased university professor, and Conan realizes that Haibara's sister is the same girl who died during the [[The Black Organization: One Billion Yen Robbery Case|One-Billion-Yen Robbery Case]]. Haibara continues to shout at a stunned Conan that, with all his deduction skills, he should have been able to see right through her sister's case. Haibara breaks down and falls on her knees in front of Conan and clutches his shirt and continues to cry into it. But Conan silently thinks to himself: "This is probably the first true face she's ever showed me."

[[File:JustPerfect.png|thumb|right|250px|"Ara, I'm actually only 18 years old, just a year older than you."]]
* When Haibara is hesitant to see the football match closer (fearing that her face will be visible on TV), Conan offers her a cap, so that she looks like a boy if seen from afar.
* Near the end of the second part of this case, Haibara stares off into the distance after Conan makes a joke about her being 84 years old. She tells him, "Ara, I'm actually only 18 years old, just a year older than you," before staring off into the distance again. Conan seems really surprised, even after Haibara adds that she was just kidding.

[[File:2Close.png|thumb|250px|'''Ayumi''': "What are you two doing!?"]]
* While trying to figure out a chess code at a castle where the Detective Boys are staying, Haibara walks up to Conan, looks down at his paper, and asks if he is happy because that is his favorite thing. Conan blushes slightly when she looks up at his face and answers "I guess so..." Immediately after, they are interrupted by Ayumi yelling, "Hey! What are you two doing!?" which was really directed at Genta and Mitsuhiko.
* Conan later gets lost and when everyone tries to look for him, it starts raining. Haibara tells Ayumi to stop crying and that, "Edogawa-kun isn't the type to make you worry. He'll come back himself." She then comments on Ayumi's bag and about not letting her tears enter it. Ayumi replies, "Hey, how do you know Conan-kun so well..." Haibara replies, "Come on. Why do you ask?" to which Ayumi says, "It is because you like him, right?" Haibara, surprised, recovers by asking, "What if I do?" Ayumi replies, "Then...I'm in trouble,". Haibara ends the conversation claiming she doesn't like Conan in that way.
* Haibara sees Ayumi is worried and does not want to trouble her anymore, so Haibara plainly states she does not have those kinds of feelings for Conan. However Agasa walks up to her and clears his voice, telling Haibara that kids are quick at understanding things nowadays.

=== The Final Screening Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 23|222-224]], Anime: [[Episode 138|138-139]]) ===
* At the start of the second Gomera movie, Ayumi falls asleep and puts her head on Conan's shoulder. When Conan turns to Haibara, saying he needs to use the restroom and asks her if she would switch seats, she has also put her head on Conan's shoulder, having fallen asleep as well.

=== Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 2 (Manga: [[Volume 23|231]] and [[Volume 24|232-233]], Anime: [[Episode 156|156-157]]) ===
* The episode opens with Haibara and Conan in what looks to be an abandoned and empty room. Haibara tells him that she (possibly referring to Ran) has found out about his identity. When he asks her why she's telling him all this, she tells him that he can see into the hearts of the wicked, but he couldn't understand a woman's heart, then tells him that she's been in love with him since she met him. We see Conan's face, but it doesn't appear to be at all surprised, and Haibara continues with: "I guess you didn't even notice... Kamen Yaiba-san." After Mitsuhiko yells out "CUT!", it is revealed that both Conan and Haibara were merely acting, and practicing lines for Teitan Elementary School's play, with Mitsuhiko as the director.

=== Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume 25|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]]) ===
[[Image: Haibara_Conan_episode_176.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Conan puts his glasses on Haibara.]]
* Conan and Haibara went to the Haido City Hotel to stop Pisco, a Black Organization member, before he kills someone as ordered by [[Gin]], and also to possibly obtain a sample of APTX 4869 in order to develop an antidote. During the entire case, Haibara is seriously frightened of Gin, because the night before she had dreamt that he had discovered her true identity ([[Sherry|Shiho Miyano]]) and killed everyone she had contact with. She also confided to Conan that she dreamed that he was shot first, which may symbolize a great fear over any harm done to him.
* While they are in Professor Agasa's car following Gin and Vodka to the Haido City Hotel, Haibara seems to be pleased by Conan's decision to stop Pisco from murdering someone rather than just concentrating on Gin, Vodka, and the drug, and says, "Oh, what a strong sense of justice you have," with a proud smile. Because of his decision to do the right thing, she follows him into harm's way, knowing that she could be murdered immediately, and enters Haido City Hotel against her better judgement.
* After Haibara says, "Maybe if I had been killed by the organization back then, there would be less hassle for everyone," Conan cuts her off by giving up his glasses, the only thing preventing people from recognizing him, and putting them on her to somewhat disguise her and make her feel safer. After they have an encouraging conversation about how this action bears similarity to Superman/Clark Kent's disguise, Haibara turns away bashfully and thanks him. He looks at her and says somewhat sarcastically, "You really aren't too adorable."<ref>Episode 176 (Kaze no ko)</ref>
* When Haibara, after being kidnapped by Pisco and locked in a store room, gets into contact with Conan, he repeatedly urges her to escape immediately through the chimney, visibly concerned. After regaining her actual body (through the temporary effect of alcohol) and climbing up the chimney, Haibara is intercepted by Gin (and [[Vodka]]) on the roof. As Gin fired multiple shots into her body to immobilize her, Conan arrived to shoot Gin with the stun-gun wristwatch and distract him, allowing Haibara to jump into the chimney again.
* After Haibara shrinks back to child size, Conan puts his jacket on her naked body and carries her from the fire before Pisco and Gin can discover them.

[[File:GunsnRoses.gif|thumb|right|250px|Haibara fires a gun of roses at Conan to encourage him to avoid telling Ran his secret identity.]]
* While Conan is lying in a hospital bed after a blood transfusion, Haibara sneaks into his room and held a gun at him. She tells him that the Black Organization would spare Agasa's life if she killed Conan and everyone else related to him. She then pulls the trigger, but it turns out that it was a fake gun that shot red roses from the barrel.

* When asked by Conan (who has reverted back to Shinichi thanks to a prototype antidote) why she would go so far to help him, Haibara suddenly shows a surprised expression. Haibara replies by explaining that if something happened to him, then she would be in trouble as well.

Conan rushes back onto the bus, risking his life to save her. They jump out of the bus, but Conan gets injured in the process. He rubs some of his blood onto Haibara to give the police a reason to send her to the hospital, possibly as a way to keep an eye on her.

Conan Edogawa and Ai Haibara

2020-12-08T15:10:32Z

West Church: /* The Girl from the Black Organization and the University Professor Murder Case (Manga: 176-181, Anime: 129) */

{{Cleanup|date=September 2013|reason=Content needs to by copywritten. There are some grammatical errors, and more appropriate word choice is needed.}}
[[Image:Op25-9.JPG|thumb|right|320px|Conan and Haibara.]]
[[Conan Edogawa]] and [[Ai Haibara]] share an interesting relationship. Initially, Conan was suspicious of Haibara for being part of the Black Organization and the inventor of [[APTX 4869]], but he has since warmed up to her as a valuable teammate and someone to confide his thoughts with when they conflict with his child cover. On her part, Haibara expresses interest in Conan's personality, intelligence, and sense of justice.

== Relationship analysis ==
[[Image:M5-18.jpg‎|thumb|right|250px|Conan refuses to sit in the machine out of fear that his and Haibara's secret will be revealed.]]
Initially, [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] mistrusts [[Shiho Miyano]], now [[Ai Haibara]], because she is a member of the [[Black Organization]] and created the deadly drug [[APTX 4869]]. [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] convinces Conan to give her a chance because she has the best chance of creating an antidote. Ai, who grew up within the Black Organization, is quite cynical at first about Conan's ideals and sense of justice, causing them to quarrel often during their early cases together. Eventually, Conan's hopeful and steadfast personality seems to bring her around.
For his part, Conan watches out for Haibara's safety, protects and rescues Haibara on multiple occasions. Despite being shrunk by the drug developed by Shiho and having his life upended, Conan only carries his hatred towards the criminal Black Organization and not to Haibara personally. He also trusts her as a confidante and values her maturity. For regular cases, they often work as an investigative team running ideas off of one another, teaming up to corner the culprit, and explaining the solution. When Haibara is around, she is usually the first to understand Conan's intelligent actions. Haibara often serves as a reality check and reminds Conan to act more like a child in order to protect his identity, and vice-versa. Curiously, they are the only pair who have disguised in each other's body, although in two different occasions.

The Black Organization is the source of the most trouble in their relationship. Because of several early situations where Haibara panicked in the presence of a nasty Black Organization member or tried to sacrifice herself, Conan developed the bad habit of downplaying the involvement of the Black Organization in various affairs in order to not upset Ai. Even though Haibara has become more resolute, Conan is still reluctant to discuss what is on his mind or his plans when it involves the Black Organization. Haibara has become keen at identifying when Conan is hiding something from her, but only rarely does Conan capitulate. Haibara in turn conceals much of what she knows about [[the boss]] and the goal of the organization, perhaps because she is worried Conan will rush in prematurely and get himself killed. In fact, she has always known that [[Renya Karasuma]] is the head of the Black Organization, but she never reveals it for Conan's safety. This mutual distrust occasionally results in situations that could have been handled better if they shared information.

Their closeness has caused a number of people taking it as they are in a "special" relationship. In canon, that includes:
* [[Ayumi Yoshida]] questioned Haibara if she liked Conan as early as Haibara's first appearances.
* [[Yukiko Kudo]] noticed Haibara staring at Conan multiple times in a day.
* [[Ran Mouri]], in a bet with Sonoko, insisted that Conan will fall for Haibara.
* [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya]] noticed Haibara and Conan often talked to each other in a level at no one else could understand.
In non canon, this also includes;
* [[Sonoko Suzuki]] (in Movie 4), asking if Haibara is Conan's new girlfriend. In canon, Sonoko bet Conan liked Ayumi.
* [[Kaoru Koda]] (in Episode 742), asking if Haibara is Conan's girlfriend, which Haibara denied.
* Umeno (in Movie 19), noticing Haibara only stared at Conan, had a conversation with Haibara and encouraged her to open up her feeling.

Even though Shinichi's single-minded focus on Ran blocks any potential romantic development, Ai has handled any feelings of jealousy gracefully. Occasionally she will tease Shinichi about his obsession with Ran. Haibara is sometimes asked by Conan for one of the protoype antidotes she created, mostly to solve relationship issues with Ran. However, Haibara very rarely grants his wishes, often teasing him about his relationship with Ran in the process. It is unclear whether Haibara withholds APTX 4869 antidotes from Conan for medical reasons, fears that he will be indiscreet as Shinichi, or to simply meddle with his love life. However, in more recent cases, Haibara has been more supportive of Shinichi and Ran's relationship, providing him the antidotes and asking other people to cover for him.

Haibara has confessed to Conan that having him around in the same situation as her is why she can stand being a six-year-old.

=== The Girl from the Black Organization and the University Professor Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 18|176]]-[[Volume 19|181]], Anime: [[Episode 129|129]]) ===
[[File:FirstTrueFace.png|thumb|right|250px|Conan/Shinichi says"That...was probably the first true face she ever showed me."]]
[[File:Ed60-4.jpg|thumb|right|180px|"Haibara shows her true feeling in the presence of Conan/Shinichi (Scene from [[Sissy_Sky|Closing60]]).]]
* Upon Haibara's arrival at Teitan Elementary School, Genta eagerly offers the seat next to him for her to sit in. But as Haibara walks towards the desks, she brushes right past Genta and takes the empty seat next to Conan, and in a monotone voice says to him, "Nice to meet you." Surprised, Conan responds with, "Yeah..."
* After class is over, the Detective Boys try to catch up with Haibara in the hallway wanting to ask her to walk home with them. Haibara ignores all of Ayumi's attempts to talk to her until she inquires about her address, to which she replies, "22 Beika Block, Second Street." Conan regards the address as familiar and remarks to himself that her house can't be too far away from where his is. Haibara then looks over her shoulder and smirks at him, surprising Conan and causing him to blush. Genta notices and asks him if he "likes that stuck-up woman", which Conan is quick to deny.
* When Ayumi and Mitsuhiko are telling Haibara about the Detective Boys, she asks, "Edogawa-kun is in it too?". Shortly after, the Detective Boys come across a case, where a fellow classmate's older brother has been missing and the child wants to find him.
* After solving the said case, Ai fires a gun through a window, causing her to get a scolding from Inspector Megure. Haibara starts fake-crying (impressively well) to get out of it. Conan walks Haibara back home to 'her house', while she is still crying. When Conan drops her off nearby her home, Haibara immediately stops crying and then starts talking about a drug called "APTX 4869". Conan is confused, as Haibara continues to ramble about the drug and how he took it. It becomes apparent that Haibara isn't a normal little girl. It is not until Haibara tells Conan that she's occupied [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]]'s house and that he's "not in this world any more" that Conan begins to panic. He tries to call Professor Agasa but doesn't get an answer, while Haibara smirks evilly in the background. Conan then leaves Haibara behind and sprints to Professor Agasa's house, hoping to find him safe, which he does. Agasa then allows Haibara to explain herself to an angry Conan. She explains about her "role" in the [[Black Organization]] and how she betrayed the organization and took the drug to escape from her prison.
* On the route towards the university professor, Conan showed deep distrust for Haibara, being a former Black Organization member and her reluctance to share information about her life and the organization.
* After exchanging information, Conan, Haibara, and Agasa plan to visit a university professor who could have accidentally been given a floppy disk containing data on the Black Organization from Haibara's elder sister. They visit his house only to find him dead in a locked room. After Conan solves the case, Agasa and Conan decide to head back home. When Conan gestures for Haibara to come along, a tear rolls down her face as she asks why he didn't help her sister. To answer a confused Conan, Haibara explains, still in tears, that Hirota Masami was a fake name that her sister took from the now-deceased university professor, and Conan realizes that Haibara's sister is the same girl who died during the [[The Black Organization: One Billion Yen Robbery Case|One-Billion-Yen Robbery Case]]. Haibara continues to shout at a stunned Conan that, with all his deduction skills, he should have been able to see right through her sister's case. Haibara breaks down and falls on her knees in front of Conan and clutches his shirt and continues to cry into it. But Conan silently thinks to himself: "This is probably the first true face she's ever showed me."

[[File:JustPerfect.png|thumb|right|250px|"Ara, I'm actually only 18 years old, just a year older than you."]]
* When Haibara is hesitant to see the football match closer (fearing that her face will be visible on TV), Conan offers her a cap, so that she looks like a boy if seen from afar.
* Near the end of the second part of this case, Haibara stares off into the distance after Conan makes a joke about her being 84 years old. She tells him, "Ara, I'm actually only 18 years old, just a year older than you," before staring off into the distance again. Conan seems really surprised, even after Haibara adds that she was just kidding.

[[File:2Close.png|thumb|250px|'''Ayumi''': "What are you two doing!?"]]
* While trying to figure out a chess code at a castle where the Detective Boys are staying, Haibara walks up to Conan, looks down at his paper, and asks if he is happy because that is his favorite thing. Conan blushes slightly when she looks up at his face and answers "I guess so..." Immediately after, they are interrupted by Ayumi yelling, "Hey! What are you two doing!?" which was really directed at Genta and Mitsuhiko.
* Conan later gets lost and when everyone tries to look for him, it starts raining. Haibara tells Ayumi to stop crying and that, "Edogawa-kun isn't the type to make you worry. He'll come back himself." She then comments on Ayumi's bag and about not letting her tears enter it. Ayumi replies, "Hey, how do you know Conan-kun so well..." Haibara replies, "Come on. Why do you ask?" to which Ayumi says, "It is because you like him, right?" Haibara, surprised, recovers by asking, "What if I do?" Ayumi replies, "Then...I'm in trouble,". Haibara ends the conversation claiming she doesn't like Conan in that way.
* Haibara sees Ayumi is worried and does not want to trouble her anymore, so Haibara plainly states she does not have those kinds of feelings for Conan. However Agasa walks up to her and clears his voice, telling Haibara that kids are quick at understanding things nowadays.

* The episode opens with Haibara and Conan in what looks to be an abandoned and empty room. Haibara tells him that she (possibly referring to Ran) has found out about his identity. When he asks her why she's telling him all this, she tells him that he can see into the hearts of the wicked, but he couldn't understand a woman's heart, then tells him that she's been in love with him since she met him. We see Conan's face, but it doesn't appear to be at all surprised, and Haibara continues with: "I guess you didn't even notice... Kamen Yaiba-san." After Mitsuhiko yells out "CUT!", it is revealed that both Conan and Haibara were merely acting, and practicing lines for Teitan Elementary School's play, with Mitsuhiko as the director.

[[Image: Haibara_Conan_episode_176.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Conan puts his glasses on Haibara.]]
* Conan and Haibara went to the Haido City Hotel to stop Pisco, a Black Organization member, before he kills someone as ordered by [[Gin]], and also to possibly obtain a sample of APTX 4869 in order to develop an antidote. During the entire case, Haibara is seriously frightened of Gin, because the night before she had dreamt that he had discovered her true identity ([[Sherry|Shiho Miyano]]) and killed everyone she had contact with. She also confided to Conan that she dreamed that he was shot first, which may symbolize a great fear over any harm done to him.
* While they are in Professor Agasa's car following Gin and Vodka to the Haido City Hotel, Haibara seems to be pleased by Conan's decision to stop Pisco from murdering someone rather than just concentrating on Gin, Vodka, and the drug, and says, "Oh, what a strong sense of justice you have," with a proud smile. Because of his decision to do the right thing, she follows him into harm's way, knowing that she could be murdered immediately, and enters Haido City Hotel against her better judgement.
* After Haibara says, "Maybe if I had been killed by the organization back then, there would be less hassle for everyone," Conan cuts her off by giving up his glasses, the only thing preventing people from recognizing him, and putting them on her to somewhat disguise her and make her feel safer. After they have an encouraging conversation about how this action bears similarity to Superman/Clark Kent's disguise, Haibara turns away bashfully and thanks him. He looks at her and says somewhat sarcastically, "You really aren't too adorable."<ref>Episode 176 (Kaze no ko)</ref>
* When Haibara, after being kidnapped by Pisco and locked in a store room, gets into contact with Conan, he repeatedly urges her to escape immediately through the chimney, visibly concerned. After regaining her actual body (through the temporary effect of alcohol) and climbing up the chimney, Haibara is intercepted by Gin (and [[Vodka]]) on the roof. As Gin fired multiple shots into her body to immobilize her, Conan arrived to shoot Gin with the stun-gun wristwatch and distract him, allowing Haibara to jump into the chimney again.
* After Haibara shrinks back to child size, Conan puts his jacket on her naked body and carries her from the fire before Pisco and Gin can discover them.

* When walking together with Haibara, Conan says that he would have told Ran what he planned to tell (hinted as his romantic feelings towards her) if he knew the prototype antidote would not work well. After they separated, Mitsuhiko states that Haibara is in a good mood and as a follow up, Ayumi says something good must happened to her (which might be that Conan/Shinichi could not confess to Ran).

=== And Then There Were No Mermaids (Manga: [[Volume 28#Mermaid.27s Curse Case|281]], Anime: [[And Then There Were No Mermaids|223]]) ===

* On a bus, Haibara becomes petrified because she feels the familiar and scary presence of a member of the [[Black Organization]]. Haibara mistakes the aura as coming from Jodie when it is really from Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide, who is sitting next to Jodie. When Jodie asks Conan for her name, she grabs onto his hand desperately and, understanding her fear, Conan says that she is a random girl that he happened to sit next to.
* When the bus is evacuated and the bomb is about to go off, Haibara chooses to stay inside as a suicide attempt so that she wouldn't have to worry about her future, and so that she would no longer be a threat to all the people she was close to. Conan rushes back onto the bus, risking his life to save her. They jump out of the bus, but Conan gets injured in the process. He rubs some of his blood onto Haibara to give the police a reason to send her to the hospital, possibly as a way to keep an eye on her. As Haibara gets in the police car, he tells her not to run away from her destiny.

[[File:Icantseehowyourea90yearoldlady.png|thumb|right|250px|Haibara blushes when Conan tells her to keep smiling.]]
* The hijacked bus incident in ''The Mysterious Passenger Case'' led Haibara to be especially worried about her situation. Ayumi, Genta, and Mitsuhiko attempt to cheer her up and, with the help of Arthur the dog, manage to make her smile. Conan comments that she should keep that expression, since it makes her look like a child, causing Haibara to blush. Conan then sneakily adds that with her face like that, he wouldn't think she's a 90-year old lady, to which Haibara counters, saying, "How rude, I'm only 84 years old (referring to Conan's initial estimate in ''The Stadium Indiscriminate Threatening Case'')".

* While she is at the beach with the Detective Boys and Ran, Haibara once again witnesses Conan's/Shinichi's feelings for Ran. She remains in the water until Ran notices she got a sunstroke. Conan wonders why she did not stay with Professor Agasa, and she answers that she did not want to run away from a dolphin (Ran) who is loved by the ocean (Shinichi/Conan), and she didn't want to be a malicious shark fleeing from the cold and dark bottom of the ocean, who cannot compete with the dolphin. However, Conan fails to understand this metaphor, which draws a parallel between Ran and Haibara.

* The events of the case made Haibara feel bad about her betrayal. Conan fears that she might take a train to flee and start a new life. He rushes and yells her name in order to hold her back, before realizing she is actually behind him. Haibara asks why he shouted, declares he told her not to run away from fate, and adds "You're going to protect me, right?", before stating sarcastically that she is not as weak as he thinks she is.

=== The Smash of Determination and Love (Anime: [[The Smash of Determination and Love|294-295]]) ===
* At the beginning of the episode, Conan notices that Haibara, who usually does not participate in their trips, is acting a bit odd by deciding to come along. Conan comments, "I wonder what could have provoked you to come this time". Haibara says that she's not really interested in the trip itself, but just wants a place to focus on her reading while adding, "Besides, you can't protect me if I'm not with you, right?".
* During the case, Conan and Haibara are sitting in a cafe trying to find clues from Ran. Haibara discreetly smiles at Conan as he is reading through a phone book.
* After the case, Conan and Haibara have to run laps for missing the semi-finals. When Conan has three laps to go, Haibara catches up to him and says, "I'll run with you." However, right after that, Ayumi and the rest catch up with them and run the laps together.

* [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] tells Conan that he seems to be popular with girls, since Haibara has been looking at him several times that day: "There's only two reasons for a girl to look at a boy like that: he has something on his face or she likes him." Not really convinced, he answers that Haibara must be checking the development of her test subject for APTX 4869. Before leaving, Yukiko encourages Conan to take care of the other kids, and Conan agrees, looking particularly at Haibara.
* Later that night, Conan and Haibara happen to lie awake next to each other in a bed shared with the rest of the Detective Boys. Still curious about his mother's earlier comment, Conan tells Haibara, who has her back turned towards him, that he wants to ask her something.

* Having burst into the women's onsen after hearing Ayumi and Haibara's screams, Conan discovers a dead body.

[...] '''Conan''': (''clueless'') "But you saw that too... the old man's corpse."

* At a later scene, when Conan uses his voice-changing bowtie to imitate Professor Agasa's voice, Haibara saves Conan from having to explain his actions to the rest of the Detective Boys.

I didn't see anything besides your butt", causing Haibara to blush. Conan's later comments prove to be the last straw for Haibara, and she gets her revenge at the end of the episode.

=== The Heartfelt Strap (Manga: [[Volume 94#Haibara's Lost Phone Strap Case|997-999]], Anime: [[The Heartfelt Strap|925-926]]) ===
* Conan wanted an APTX 4869 antidote so he can go on a school trip with Ran, but Haibara refused because his shrinking condition was almost revealed the prior two times he used antidotes. Conan acted overly nice to Haibara, such as trying to support her and cheering for Big Osaka while wearing their uniform instead of the Tokyo Spirits he usually roots for. Haibara saw through his act and flat out refused to give Conan the antidote. Conan made an effort to appease her by trying to recover her missing Higo phone charm, even offering to run 10 kilometers to the lost and found.
* When Conan and the Detective Boys managed to get back the phone charm, a man suddenly snatched it from them. Conan desperately tried to get it back. His eagerness did not escape Amuro's attention, which Conan had to explain he needed the charm "for some unknown reasons". At one point, when the charm was about to fall to the sea, Conan jumped and grabbed it, falling to the water while managed to keep the charm intact.
* It turned out there was two Higo charms, and the one saved by Conan actually belonged to the man who snatched it from Conan. He eventually found Haibara's charm, but it became dirty after being ran over by a car. While cleaning it, the left eye of the charm fell off, and Conan drew a ''hilariously bad'' eye to replace, which earned him Haibara's rage and apparently there gone his chance for the APTX antidote.

* Discussing the instructions, besides the usual rules, Haibara added a footnote to Conan saying not to do anything too intimate while in Shinichi's body. When Conan confusedly asked what it meant to be intimate, Haibara blushed and told him not to bother with it.

* When Haibara sees Conan's sad and worried expressions, because Ran has lost her memory from the trauma of having seen Inspector [[Miwako Sato]] being shot before her eyes (and having unintentionally helped the criminal in it by pointing a light at Sato), Haibara states that it would be better if Ran never recovers. She herself wants to forget about every past horrors, and points out that the loss of memory means that she (Ran) would not remember Shinichi or Conan, and then she and Conan can "finally be together'.

There are no cases that Holmes can't solve, right?"

Conan Edogawa and Ai Haibara

2020-12-08T15:08:01Z

West Church:

{{Cleanup|date=September 2013|reason=Content needs to by copywritten. There are some grammatical errors, and more appropriate word choice is needed.}}
[[Image:Op25-9.JPG|thumb|right|320px|Conan and Haibara.]]
[[Conan Edogawa]] and [[Ai Haibara]] share an interesting relationship. Initially, Conan was suspicious of Haibara for being part of the Black Organization and the inventor of [[APTX 4869]], but he has since warmed up to her as a valuable teammate and someone to confide his thoughts with when they conflict with his child cover. On her part, Haibara expresses interest in Conan's personality, intelligence, and sense of justice.

== Relationship analysis ==
[[Image:M5-18.jpg‎|thumb|right|250px|Conan refuses to sit in the machine out of fear that his and Haibara's secret will be revealed.]]
Initially, [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] mistrusts [[Shiho Miyano]], now [[Ai Haibara]], because she is a member of the [[Black Organization]] and created the deadly drug [[APTX 4869]]. [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] convinces Conan to give her a chance because she has the best chance of creating an antidote. Ai, who grew up within the Black Organization, is quite cynical at first about Conan's ideals and sense of justice, causing them to quarrel often during their early cases together. Eventually, Conan's hopeful and steadfast personality seems to bring her around.
For his part, Conan watches out for Haibara's safety, protects and rescues Haibara on multiple occasions. Despite being shrunk by the drug developed by Shiho and having his life upended, Conan only carries his hatred towards the criminal Black Organization and not to Haibara personally. He also trusts her as a confidante and values her maturity. For regular cases, they often work as an investigative team running ideas off of one another, teaming up to corner the culprit, and explaining the solution. When Haibara is around, she is usually the first to understand Conan's intelligent actions. Haibara often serves as a reality check and reminds Conan to act more like a child in order to protect his identity, and vice-versa. Curiously, they are the only pair who have disguised in each other's body, although in two different occasions.

The Black Organization is the source of the most trouble in their relationship. Because of several early situations where Haibara panicked in the presence of a nasty Black Organization member or tried to sacrifice herself, Conan developed the bad habit of downplaying the involvement of the Black Organization in various affairs in order to not upset Ai. Even though Haibara has become more resolute, Conan is still reluctant to discuss what is on his mind or his plans when it involves the Black Organization. Haibara has become keen at identifying when Conan is hiding something from her, but only rarely does Conan capitulate. Haibara in turn conceals much of what she knows about [[the boss]] and the goal of the organization, perhaps because she is worried Conan will rush in prematurely and get himself killed. In fact, she has always known that [[Renya Karasuma]] is the head of the Black Organization, but she never reveals it for Conan's safety. This mutual distrust occasionally results in situations that could have been handled better if they shared information.

Their closeness has caused a number of people taking it as they are in a "special" relationship. In canon, that includes:
* [[Ayumi Yoshida]] questioned Haibara if she liked Conan as early as Haibara's first appearances.
* [[Yukiko Kudo]] noticed Haibara staring at Conan multiple times in a day.
* [[Ran Mouri]], in a bet with Sonoko, insisted that Conan will fall for Haibara.
* [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya]] noticed Haibara and Conan often talked to each other in a level at no one else could understand.
In non canon, this also includes;
* [[Sonoko Suzuki]] (in Movie 4), asking if Haibara is Conan's new girlfriend. In canon, Sonoko bet Conan liked Ayumi.
* [[Kaoru Koda]] (in Episode 742), asking if Haibara is Conan's girlfriend, which Haibara denied.
* Umeno (in Movie 19), noticing Haibara only stared at Conan, had a conversation with Haibara and encouraged her to open up her feeling.

Even though Shinichi's single-minded focus on Ran blocks any potential romantic development, Ai has handled any feelings of jealousy gracefully. Occasionally she will tease Shinichi about his obsession with Ran. Haibara is sometimes asked by Conan for one of the protoype antidotes she created, mostly to solve relationship issues with Ran. However, Haibara very rarely grants his wishes, often teasing him about his relationship with Ran in the process. It is unclear whether Haibara withholds APTX 4869 antidotes from Conan for medical reasons, fears that he will be indiscreet as Shinichi, or to simply meddle with his love life. However, in more recent cases, Haibara has been more supportive of Shinichi and Ran's relationship, providing him the antidotes and asking other people to cover for him.

Haibara has confessed to Conan that having him around in the same situation as her is why she can stand being a six-year-old.

[[File:Ed60-4.jpg|thumb|right|180px|"Haibara shows her true feeling in the presence of Conan/Shinichi (Scene from [[Sissy_Sky|Closing60]]).]]
* Upon Haibara's arrival at Teitan Elementary School, Genta eagerly offers the seat next to him for her to sit in. But as Haibara walks towards the desks, she brushes right past Genta and takes the empty seat next to Conan, and in a monotone voice says to him, "Nice to meet you." Surprised, Conan responds with, "Yeah..."
* After class is over, the Detective Boys try to catch up with Haibara in the hallway wanting to ask her to walk home with them. Haibara ignores all of Ayumi's attempts to talk to her until she inquires about her address, to which she replies, "22 Beika Block, Second Street." Conan regards the address as familiar and remarks to himself that her house can't be too far away from where his is. Haibara then looks over her shoulder and smirks at him, surprising Conan and causing him to blush. Genta notices and asks him if he "likes that stuck-up woman", which Conan is quick to deny.
* When Ayumi and Mitsuhiko are telling Haibara about the Detective Boys, she asks, "Edogawa-kun is in it too?". Shortly after, the Detective Boys come across a case, where a fellow classmate's older brother has been missing and the child wants to find him.
* After solving the said case, Ai fires a gun through a window, causing her to get a scolding from Inspector Megure. Haibara starts fake-crying (impressively well) to get out of it. Conan walks Haibara back home to 'her house', while she is still crying. When Conan drops her off nearby her home, Haibara immediately stops crying and then starts talking about a drug called "APTX 4869". Conan is confused, as Haibara continues to ramble about the drug and how he took it. It becomes apparent that Haibara isn't a normal little girl. It is not until Haibara tells Conan that she's occupied [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]]'s house and that he's "not in this world any more" that Conan begins to panic. He tries to call Professor Agasa but doesn't get an answer, while Haibara smirks evilly in the background. Conan then leaves Haibara behind and sprints to Professor Agasa's house, hoping to find him safe, which he does. Agasa then allows Haibara to explain herself to an angry Conan. She explains about her "role" in the [[Black Organization]] and how she betrayed the organization and took the drug to escape from her prison.
* On the route towards the university professor, Conan showed deep distrust for Haibara, being a former Black Organization member and her reluctance to share information about her life and the organization.
* After exchanging information, Conan, Haibara, and Agasa plan to visit a university professor who could have accidentally been given a floppy disk containing data on the Black Organization from Haibara's elder sister. They visit his house only to find him dead in a locked room. After Conan solves the case, Agasa and Conan decide to head back home. When Conan gestures for Haibara to come along, a tear rolls down her face as she asks why he didn't help her sister. To answer a confused Conan, Haibara explains, still in tears, that Hirota Masami was a fake name that her sister took from the now-deceased university professor, and Conan realizes that Haibara's sister is the same girl who died during the One-Billion-Yen Robbery Case. Haibara continues to shout at a stunned Conan that, with all his deduction skills, he should have been able to see right through her sister's case. Haibara breaks down and falls on her knees in front of Conan and clutches his shirt and continues to cry into it. But Conan silently thinks to himself: "This is probably the first true face she's ever showed me."

[[File:JustPerfect.png|thumb|right|250px|"Ara, I'm actually only 18 years old, just a year older than you."]]
* When Haibara is hesitant to see the football match closer (fearing that her face will be visible on TV), Conan offers her a cap, so that she looks like a boy if seen from afar.
* Near the end of the second part of this case, Haibara stares off into the distance after Conan makes a joke about her being 84 years old. She tells him, "Ara, I'm actually only 18 years old, just a year older than you," before staring off into the distance again. Conan seems really surprised, even after Haibara adds that she was just kidding.

[[File:2Close.png|thumb|250px|'''Ayumi''': "What are you two doing!?"]]
* While trying to figure out a chess code at a castle where the Detective Boys are staying, Haibara walks up to Conan, looks down at his paper, and asks if he is happy because that is his favorite thing. Conan blushes slightly when she looks up at his face and answers "I guess so..." Immediately after, they are interrupted by Ayumi yelling, "Hey! What are you two doing!?" which was really directed at Genta and Mitsuhiko.
* Conan later gets lost and when everyone tries to look for him, it starts raining. Haibara tells Ayumi to stop crying and that, "Edogawa-kun isn't the type to make you worry. He'll come back himself." She then comments on Ayumi's bag and about not letting her tears enter it. Ayumi replies, "Hey, how do you know Conan-kun so well..." Haibara replies, "Come on. Why do you ask?" to which Ayumi says, "It is because you like him, right?" Haibara, surprised, recovers by asking, "What if I do?" Ayumi replies, "Then...I'm in trouble,". Haibara ends the conversation claiming she doesn't like Conan in that way.
* Haibara sees Ayumi is worried and does not want to trouble her anymore, so Haibara plainly states she does not have those kinds of feelings for Conan. However Agasa walks up to her and clears his voice, telling Haibara that kids are quick at understanding things nowadays.

=== Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 2 (Manga: [[Volume 23|231]] and [[Volume 24|232-233]], Anime: [[Episode 156|156-157]]) ===
* The episode opens with Haibara and Conan in what looks to be an abandoned and empty room. Haibara tells him that she (possibly referring to Ran) has found out about his identity. When he asks her why she's telling him all this, she tells him that he can see into the hearts of the wicked, but he couldn't understand a woman's heart, then tells him that she's been in love with him since she met him. We see Conan's face, but it doesn't appear to be at all surprised, and Haibara continues with: "I guess you didn't even notice... Kamen Yaiba-san." After Mitsuhiko yells out "CUT!", it is revealed that both Conan and Haibara were merely acting, and practicing lines for Teitan Elementary School's play, with Mitsuhiko as the director.

=== Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume 25|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]]) ===
[[Image: Haibara_Conan_episode_176.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Conan puts his glasses on Haibara.]]
* Conan and Haibara went to the Haido City Hotel to stop Pisco, a Black Organization member, before he kills someone as ordered by [[Gin]], and also to possibly obtain a sample of APTX 4869 in order to develop an antidote. During the entire case, Haibara is seriously frightened of Gin, because the night before she had dreamt that he had discovered her true identity ([[Sherry|Shiho Miyano]]) and killed everyone she had contact with. She also confided to Conan that she dreamed that he was shot first, which may symbolize a great fear over any harm done to him.
* While they are in Professor Agasa's car following Gin and Vodka to the Haido City Hotel, Haibara seems to be pleased by Conan's decision to stop Pisco from murdering someone rather than just concentrating on Gin, Vodka, and the drug, and says, "Oh, what a strong sense of justice you have," with a proud smile. Because of his decision to do the right thing, she follows him into harm's way, knowing that she could be murdered immediately, and enters Haido City Hotel against her better judgement.
* After Haibara says, "Maybe if I had been killed by the organization back then, there would be less hassle for everyone," Conan cuts her off by giving up his glasses, the only thing preventing people from recognizing him, and putting them on her to somewhat disguise her and make her feel safer. After they have an encouraging conversation about how this action bears similarity to Superman/Clark Kent's disguise, Haibara turns away bashfully and thanks him. He looks at her and says somewhat sarcastically, "You really aren't too adorable."<ref>Episode 176 (Kaze no ko)</ref>
* When Haibara, after being kidnapped by Pisco and locked in a store room, gets into contact with Conan, he repeatedly urges her to escape immediately through the chimney, visibly concerned. After regaining her actual body (through the temporary effect of alcohol) and climbing up the chimney, Haibara is intercepted by Gin (and [[Vodka]]) on the roof. As Gin fired multiple shots into her body to immobilize her, Conan arrived to shoot Gin with the stun-gun wristwatch and distract him, allowing Haibara to jump into the chimney again.
* After Haibara shrinks back to child size, Conan puts his jacket on her naked body and carries her from the fire before Pisco and Gin can discover them.

* While Conan is lying in a hospital bed after a blood transfusion, Haibara sneaks into his room and held a gun at him. She tells him that the Black Organization would spare Agasa's life if she killed Conan and everyone else related to him. She then pulls the trigger, but it turns out that it was a fake gun that shot red roses from the barrel.

=== The Significant Music Box (Manga: [[Volume 26#File_261_-_Touching_the_Music_Strings.21.3F|261]], Anime: [[The Significant Music Box|194]]) ===
* When walking together with Haibara, Conan says that he would have told Ran what he planned to tell (hinted as his romantic feelings towards her) if he knew the prototype antidote would not work well. After they separated, Mitsuhiko states that Haibara is in a good mood and as a follow up, Ayumi says something good must happened to her (which might be that Conan/Shinichi could not confess to Ran).

=== And Then There Were No Mermaids (Manga: [[Volume 28#Mermaid.27s Curse Case|281]], Anime: [[And Then There Were No Mermaids|223]]) ===
It is revealed that Conan knows Haibara's true name, [[Shiho Miyano]] and the codename Sherry, but he never calls her that despite her calling him "Kudo-kun".

* On a bus, Haibara becomes petrified because she feels the familiar and scary presence of a member of the [[Black Organization]]. Haibara mistakes the aura as coming from Jodie when it is really from Vermouth disguised as Dr. Araide, who is sitting next to Jodie. When Jodie asks Conan for her name, she grabs onto his hand desperately and, understanding her fear, Conan says that she is a random girl that he happened to sit next to.
* When the bus is evacuated and the bomb is about to go off, Haibara chooses to stay inside as a suicide attempt so that she wouldn't have to worry about her future, and so that she would no longer be a threat to all the people she was close to. Conan rushes back onto the bus, risking his life to save her. They jump out of the bus, but Conan gets injured in the process. He rubs some of his blood onto Haibara to give the police a reason to send her to the hospital, possibly as a way to keep an eye on her. As Haibara gets in the police car, he tells her not to run away from her destiny.

* The hijacked bus incident in ''The Mysterious Passenger Case'' led Haibara to be especially worried about her situation. Ayumi, Genta, and Mitsuhiko attempt to cheer her up and, with the help of Arthur the dog, manage to make her smile. Conan comments that she should keep that expression, since it makes her look like a child, causing Haibara to blush. Conan then sneakily adds that with her face like that, he wouldn't think she's a 90-year old lady, to which Haibara counters, saying, "How rude, I'm only 84 years old (referring to Conan's initial estimate in ''The Stadium Indiscriminate Threatening Case'')".

=== The Mystery in the Net (Manga: [[Volume 31#Netted Man Murder Case|311-313]], Anime: [[The Mystery in the Net|246-247]]) ===
* While she is at the beach with the Detective Boys and Ran, Haibara once again witnesses Conan's/Shinichi's feelings for Ran. She remains in the water until Ran notices she got a sunstroke. Conan wonders why she did not stay with Professor Agasa, and she answers that she did not want to run away from a dolphin (Ran) who is loved by the ocean (Shinichi/Conan), and she didn't want to be a malicious shark fleeing from the cold and dark bottom of the ocean, who cannot compete with the dolphin. However, Conan fails to understand this metaphor, which draws a parallel between Ran and Haibara.

* The events of the case made Haibara feel bad about her betrayal. Conan fears that she might take a train to flee and start a new life. He rushes and yells her name in order to hold her back, before realizing she is actually behind him. Haibara asks why he shouted, declares he told her not to run away from fate, and adds "You're going to protect me, right?", before stating sarcastically that she is not as weak as he thinks she is.

=== The Smash of Determination and Love (Anime: [[The Smash of Determination and Love|294-295]]) ===
* At the beginning of the episode, Conan notices that Haibara, who usually does not participate in their trips, is acting a bit odd by deciding to come along. Conan comments, "I wonder what could have provoked you to come this time". Haibara says that she's not really interested in the trip itself, but just wants a place to focus on her reading while adding, "Besides, you can't protect me if I'm not with you, right?".
* During the case, Conan and Haibara are sitting in a cafe trying to find clues from Ran. Haibara discreetly smiles at Conan as he is reading through a phone book.
* After the case, Conan and Haibara have to run laps for missing the semi-finals. When Conan has three laps to go, Haibara catches up to him and says, "I'll run with you." However, right after that, Ayumi and the rest catch up with them and run the laps together.

* [[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] tells Conan that he seems to be popular with girls, since Haibara has been looking at him several times that day: "There's only two reasons for a girl to look at a boy like that: he has something on his face or she likes him." Not really convinced, he answers that Haibara must be checking the development of her test subject for APTX 4869. Before leaving, Yukiko encourages Conan to take care of the other kids, and Conan agrees, looking particularly at Haibara.
* Later that night, Conan and Haibara happen to lie awake next to each other in a bed shared with the rest of the Detective Boys. Still curious about his mother's earlier comment, Conan tells Haibara, who has her back turned towards him, that he wants to ask her something. But when Conan eventually simply asks if he has something on his face, the same confused look appears on both of their faces.

'''{{nihongo|Ninzaburo Shiratori|白鳥任三郎|Shiratori Ninzaburō}}''', also known as '''Nicholas Santos''' in the [[Funimation]] dub and the English version of the manga, is a character on the ''[[Detective Conan]]'' franchise. He is the boyfriend of [[Sumiko Kobayashi]].

== Background ==
[[File:Shiratori Young.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Shiratori as a child.]]
Shiratori's [http://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/Category:Anime_to_manga_characters debut was in the first movie], ''[[The Time-Bombed Skyscraper]]'', acting as a member of Megure's police force.<ref name=Time>[[The Time-Bombed Skyscraper|Movie 1: The Time-Bombed Skyscraper]]</ref> At first, Shiratori appeared in two movie roles, before becoming a full-fledged inspector when he was introduced into the manga a month after his second movie appearance.<ref name=Shira>[[Volume_21#Treadmill_Murder_Case|Treadmill Murder Case: File 208-210]], [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story|Episode 146: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story]]</ref>

As a child, Shiratori studied diligently to one day become a lawyer, and had even memorized some laws by heart. One day, he witnessed a young girl confronting two juveniles trying to steal mangas from a bookstore. When the two offenders had pushed the girl to the floor for her protests, and seemed about to hurt her, Shiratori had stepped forward to recite the provisions made in the Japanese Law to punish stealing. This somewhat unnerved the juveniles and attracted the attention of the store owner and the other customers, causing the offenders to hastily get away. To thank him for helping her out, the girl bought him a drink and made a sakura petal pattern from the straw wrapper, saying that the sakura was the symbol of courage for the Japanese police (due to the distinct form of the Japanese police badge), and Shiratori had acted with courage just like them. It was because of this incident that Shiratori decided to become a cop rather than a lawyer, and also started to consider the girl to be his childhood love.<ref name=Sakura>Manga Chapter 689: Blooming Sakura</ref>

Shiratori later joined the Tokyo Metropolian Police Department and worked alongside [[Inspector Megure]], often acting as an extra officer or pair of eyes, though he later became an inspector of his own. When [[Miwako Sato]] joined the department, Shiratori believed that he had found his childhood love again, and as a result both he and his younger colleague [[Wataru Takagi|Takagi]] considered each other rivals for Sato's affections. Shiratori would often try to show off in front of Takagi by asking Sato on a date, but she always rejected him, much to his dismay. However, he has since come to date [[Sumiko Kobayashi]], a teacher at Teitan Elementary School (where [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]], along with the other Detective Boys, studies), whom he finally discovered to be his true love.
{{clear}}

== Personality ==
[[File:Inspector Shiratori's Badge.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Inspector Shiratori shows his badge.]]
Shiratori comes from a wealthy family. Because of his background, Shiratori acts much more conceited than his one-time rival for [[Miwako Sato]]'s affections, [[Wataru Takagi]]. His favorite hobbies include studying architecture, cooking, and collecting wine, including his favorite ''Romane Conti''. Shiratori tends to do well in cases when faced with topics pertinent to his upper class tastes,<ref>[[The Time-Bombed Skyscraper|Movie 1: The Time-Bombed Skyscraper]] He easily detects, once hinted by Conan, a lack of symmetry in architectural constructions related to a case.</ref> especially in cases involving wine.<ref>[[The Fourteenth Target|Movie 2: The Fourteenth Target]] Shiratori is also able to establish the rarity of wine labels.</ref> When he was introduced in the [[The Time-Bombed Skyscraper|first movie]], [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] treated him as a suspect and [[Kogoro Mouri]] accused him of being the bomber because of his knowledge of skyscrapers and buildings.

As a police officer, Shiratori is fairly average, on par with Sato or Megure. He is calmer on the case than Takagi or Sato. Shiratori, like Sato and Takagi, believes that Conan has a lot of intelligence for a boy his age, but unlike Takagi and Sato, he usually tends not to care much for Conan's opinion. He often feels that Conan gets in the way, though Conan always proves otherwise. However, unlike Kogoro, Shiratori will take notice and suspect something if Conan points something quite interesting. In his initial manga appearances, Shiratori was incredibly cocky when battling for Sato's affections, but has since become more modest with his girlfriend Sumiko at his side.

In pursuit of love, Shiratori has a one track mind and is willing to abuse his police powers to achieve his desire. He even became the leader of a secret police group which protected Miwako Sato from the affections of other police officers like Takagi. Shiratori fixated on Sato because he believed she was the childhood crush who completely changed his life at a chance meeting in a bookstore. Shiratori is crushed when Sato chooses Takagi in the end, and can't truly give up his feelings for her. He later discovers that [[Sumiko Kobayashi]] is the true girl from his childhood memories. Once the realization sets in, Shiratori's Sato complex dissolves and he develops an affection for Sumiko that soon blossoms into mutual love. Meeting Sumiko has also helped cure his arrogance to a large degree. Shiratori more than once tried to use his riches to get an edge over Takagi over Sato in the past, but now that he's with Kobayashi he does it solely to make her happy. He's noticeably more friendly towards Conan, Ai and the Detective Boys as time passes.

* Shiratori and Takagi converse outside a restaurant about Sato's love for Matsuda, and the former jokes that they'll have to die on duty too to gain her affections. As Shiratori gets in his car to go back home after they meet with Sato and the [[Detective Boys]], he sees the bomber's message on a paper stuck in his car. Just as he rushes out, the bomb fitted in his car explodes, and he narrowly escapes death. Lying critically injured, he gives Sato the paper and asks her to use the message to catch the culprit and get over the horrors of the past (referring to Matsuda's death).

=== Sakura Girl Case (Manga: [[Volume 66#Sakura Girl Case|687-689]], Anime: [[Inspector Shiratori, Memories of the Cherry Blossom|568-569]])===
At the police headquarters, Shiratori feels disheartened to see the friendliness and intimacy between [[Miwako Sato]] and [[Wataru Takagi]]. However, he decides to enjoy his off-day fully, and goes to watch a movie. There, he meets the [[Detective Boys]], and when the conversation shifts towards Shiratori's feelings towards Sato, he narrates an incident from his early life.
Once, when Shiratori was in primary school, he had seen a girl of roughly the same age as him accuse two teenage boys of stealing mangas from the book store they were in. When the girl was pushed to the floor by them, Shiratori had stepped in to protect her and prevent the theft, by reciting the provisions of the Japanese Law against stealing, thus unnerving them and attracting the attention of the store owner. Later, the girl had brought Shiratori a cup of cola decorated with a sakura petal design (made of straw wrappers) out of gratitude, saying that the sakura was the symbol of the Japanese Police (due to the shape of their badge) and the "flower of justice".

From that day, he considers the girl his first love and 'girl of destiny', and due to her uncanny resemblance to Sato, he believes her to be the same person.

At the cinema hall, Shiratori and the Detective Boys meet a woman named Nami Kasakura, who also makes sakura designs, and Shiratori thinks that she might actually be ''that'' girl. Later, however, Shiratori himself has to reluctantly prove that she is the murderer of her boyfriend, leaving him devastated. To lift his spirits, [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]] gifts him a wrapper-made sakura bracelet, and makes the same statement as the 'girl of destiny' about the Japanese Police. As Shiratori frantically asks her who taught her that, and Ayumi says it was their teacher, [[Sumiko Kobayashi]], Sumiko appears to take the children home. Shiratori grabs Sumiko's hand romantically, and offers to give all of them a ride home, causing her to blush.

== Non-canon plot overview ==
=== The Time-Bombed Skyscraper (Movie: [[The Time-Bombed Skyscraper|1]]) ===
Shiratori's first appearance is as a suspect in a bombing epidemic. He was later brought over to the manga.

=== The Fourteenth Target (Movie: [[The Fourteenth Target|2]]) ===
Shiratori here is shown to be Inspector [[Juzo Megure]]'s close aide, as he assists him throughout the case. He knows that he too is on the murderer's hit-list. He is the one who tells [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] about the incident when her father, [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]], had given her mother, [[Eri Kisaki|Eri]], a bullet graze in her thigh while she was being held hostage by the culprit (this was actually intentional, as Kogoro wanted to injure and move Eri out of more harm's way; Shiratori realised this later too). Shiratori is also shown to help an injured Megure to swim to safety, as well as resuscitate the writer accompanying them, who couldn't swim. However, his lack of marksmanship skills is also pointed at here.

=== Captured in Her Eyes (Movie: [[Captured in Her Eyes|4]]) ===
Shiratori is one of the very few officers who are allowed information on the background of the murders of police officers occurring in the area (even Kogoro is kept in the dark initially). Here, however, Shiratori does not seem to be averse to Sato and Takagi's relationship.

== Relationships analysis ==
=== Family and friends ===
{{main|Shiratori family}}

==== Miwako Sato ====
Shiratori used to show affection for [[Miwako Sato]], whom he believed to be his first love interest from his childhood days. He would often ask her out on dinner dates but always end up being turned down, much to his dismay.<ref name=Shira /> He also knows that Takagi also has feelings for Sato, and often will put down Takagi while in front of her, by showing off how he is wealthy and wants to take her to fancy dinner dates.<ref name=Shira /> However, Sato does not feel the same way for him, and always turns him down. In later episodes, Shiratori is the leader of a police force that is mostly hellbent on getting Takagi and Sato to break up, especially when Sato and Takagi begin to move further in their relationship. Shiratori once even tries to sabotage a date at [[Tropical Land]] that Sato and Takagi are having, have the police lie to Megure that they are working, so that they can secretly pretend to be staff members of Tropical Land, and try to ruin the date.

In another situation, Shiratori almost marries Sato, through an arranged marriage set up by Shiratori's family and Sato's mother. However, thanks to an ultimatum set up by Sato, Takagi is about to stop the marriage, with the help of Conan and [[Tomoaki Araide|Dr. Araide]], before Sato and Shiratori can kiss.

Shiratori's strong infatuation for Sato came from a childhood memory of his first love who looked remarkably like her. However, after solving a case with the [[Detective Boys]], he meets his actual true love: [[Sumiko Kobayashi]]. Since then, Shiratori has become a friend towards Sato and fully supports her relationship with [[Wataru Takagi]].

==== Sumiko Kobayashi ====
{{main|Ninzaburo Shiratori and Sumiko Kobayashi}}
After learning that [[Sumiko Kobayashi|Sumiko]] is his first love<ref name=Sakura/>, through an investigation with the Detective Boys where he himself solved the crime, Shiratori has been frequently phoning her and visiting her at the elementary school under the guise of warning her of dangerous activity in the area.<ref name=Kobayashi>Manga Chapter 690: Haunted Warehouse</ref> He has also resigned from his "position" as Chief Executive of Miwako Sato's Line of Defense, telling the other officers to let Takagi and Sato be.<ref name=Kobayashi2>Manga Chapter 705: Kobayashi-sensei's Love</ref>

During the investigation of the Loan Shark Murder Case, Sumiko is brought to the police station as a witness and learns that she resembles Sato, and that Shiratori used to be in love with her (Sato).<ref>Manga Chapter 706: Kobayashi-sensei's Misunderstanding</ref> This upsets her, thinking that Shiratori is affectionate of her only because she resembles Sato, and she behaves coldly and harshly towards Shiratori, even claiming to not remember their first meeting<ref name=Sakura/> when he tries to confess his feelings to her (she remembers the incident, but perhaps she doesn't believe that Shiratori is the same person), saying that it must have been Sato he met instead.<ref>Manga Chapter 707: The Sakura Girl is...</ref> However, after saving her from the culprit, Shiratori recites the provisions of the Japanese Law - just like he had done in the book store years ago - to quash the murderer's justification of his actions, causing Sumiko to remember him as the same person. Finally, Shiratori confesses his true feelings to Sumiko, and the two of them begin dating. Sumiko would frequently present home-made bentos to Shiratori.<ref>Manga Chapter 708: The Sakura in Full Bloom</ref>

==== Juzo Megure ====
[[Juzo Megure|Megure]] and Shiratori share a fairly close relationship, and the later is frequently seen assisting Megure in investigations. The bond between them is evident in [[Movie 2]]:[[The Fourteenth Target]], where Shiratori helps an injured Megure in swimming and escaping the flood, after the underwater restaurant they were in, is made to collapse by the murderer.

==== Wataru Takagi ====

== Character popularity ==
eBookJapan held a character popularity poll from April 12, 2011 to May 12, 2011 in which readers of Detective Conan (international included) could vote for their favorite character. Shiratori placed 22nd in the poll with 22 votes out of the 5,883 that were cast.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ebookjapan.jp/ebj/special/conan/vote_kekka2.asp|title=『名探偵コナン』人気投票結果|date=2011-05-12|publisher=eBookJapan|accessdate=2011-05-15}}</ref>

== Name origin ==
* His name comes from "Ninzaburo" Furuhata, a fictional police detective from a drama of the same name, and Keisuke "Shiratori", a character created by Takeru Kaido as a medical analyst who solves the cases of dead people after professionnal failures.

{{cquote|Criminal Law, Article #36. An act unavoidably performed to protect the rights of oneself or any other person against imminent and unlawful infringement is not punishable.

== Trivia ==
* Unlike many of the characters, Shiratori strongly believes in destiny or fate.
* His background story was changed slightly when he became a regular character. When he was introduced in [[The Time-Bombed Skyscraper]] for the first time, he was said to be new to the force. However after Shiratori was incorporated into the manga, it was later said that he'd been on the force since at least three years prior, and longer than Takagi.
* Originally, he was created for the movies, but became a permanent character in the manga and anime.
* According to [[16 Suspects!?|OVA 2]], Shiratori owns a big villa in Karuizawa.
* His family background was changed for the English dubbed version of movie 2: [[The Fourteenth Target]] in order to give him a connection to the number 3 and hence put him on 3rd position of the murderer's hit-list. In the dub, Shiratori is the youngest of three brothers, each of whom were born at a separation of three years. In the original Japanese version, those brothers do not exist and Shiratori represents number 3 because the middle kanji of his first name, Ninzaburo, is the kanji for the number three (任'''三'''郎 ).
* Shiratori, who normally appears about once every ten cases or so, once had an unusually large gap between appearances. The bounds of this gap are [[Volume 77|File 808: The Late Grave Visit]] to [[Volume 89|File 942: Chiba's Difficult Case ]] (134 files) in the manga, and [[The Life-Threatening Broadcast of Love|Episode 683: The Life-Threatening Broadcast of Love]] to [[Conan and Ebizo's Kabuki Jūhachiban Mystery|Episode 804: Conan and Ebizo's Kabuki Jūhachiban Mystery]] (121 episodes) in the anime.
* "Shiratori" (白鳥) literally means "white bird".

== Case ==
=== Situation ===
Japan is about to celebrate the world ’s largest sports festival; “WSG-World Sports Games” in Tokyo. In line with the opening ceremony, it is announced that the world's first “Vacuum Superconducting Linear” train, boasting a maximum speed of 1,000 km/h which combined all of Japan's technologies, will be opened to the public between Shin-Nagoya Station and Shibahama Station and established in Tokyo. As the world's attention is garnered, an incident occurs at a party venue where famous tournament sponsors are gathered, leading to an abnormal situation where top dogs of companies are kidnapped one after another. Behind the scenes are Shuichi Akai, who monitors the incident, and the FBI, who waits for orders from Akai.
Conan's reasoning reveals the relevance of the apocalyptic WSG kidnapping incident that occurred in Boston, USA, 15 years ago, and that the incident was also under the jurisdiction of the FBI. Is this a coincidence? What is going to happen in Japan, where many types of people from all over the world are gathered?

=== Situation ===
=== Part 1 ===
[[Maria Higashio]] hasn't come to school today and [[Sumiko Kobayashi|Kobayashi]] sends [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] and the [[Detective Boys]] to her home to see how she's doing and if everything's all right.

Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]], bed-ridden with a cold, enjoys [[Ran Mouri|Ran]]'s agreement to hook up. He goes to see [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] and reads in the news that someone saw [[Shinichi Kudo]] at Kyoto and on TV. He starts being very nervous and asks Haibara and [[Heiji Hattori|Heiji]] about it, while Ran, [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]], and [[Masumi Sera|Masumi]] read it as well. The media overrun Heiji and Shinichi's high schools, and Shinichi's house, although [[Subaru Okiya|Okiya]] denies them entry. The Detective Boys believe Maria went to her late paternal grandparents' house and took part in the scavenger hunt they organized for her. Haibara helps the Detective Boys to follow the arrows and understand the messages. As they followed the clues, they arrive in a room where a bookshelf was knocked over, and fear Maria might be stuck under it. But it's not the case and there is instead another code to decipher.

=== Part 2 ===
The Detective Boys understand Maria went downstairs and try to find out the other arrows. Shinichi has still trouble finding who is the "Kudo Family Freak" blog owner and how to stop all that mess. Ran tries to figure out what happens and why is Shinichi considered like a ghost. Heiji tells Conan he'll try to settle things on his side. The Detective Boys finally arrive to a bathroom but the only arrow points to the shower, and there's nothing inside. They convince Haibara to ask Conan's help, and the latter tells them to give some water to the drinking bird next to the arrow.

The Detective Boys give the drinking bird a glass of water and the bird starts bending and unbending. They then notice the glass's water has reversed the arrow's direction, which now points towards the opposite direction of the bathroom, another room the kids fail to open. [[Kanenori Wakita]] rings at Professor Agasa's door and asks what's is the hustle and bustle in front of their neightbours' house all about, he can't do his deliveries.

Conan tells the Detective Boys that the door isn't locked but the difference in temperatures between the cold corridor and the warm room where Maria is, creates a pressure gradient that can be dispelled by pushing the door strongly and opening a vent. Maria is indeed inside, asleep. She had come to watch some videos of her grandparents, but was then unable to open the door to leave the room, and thought she had to watch every video for the door to open.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>
[[File:EP942 11.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Carasuma]]
Heiji tells the press outside his school that it was [[Soshi Okita|Okita]] that was caught on film and not Shinichi. At the same time, the owner of the blog suddenly retracts her claim that she saw Shinichi.

As Wakita, [[Rumi Wakasa|Wakasa]], and [[Hyoue Kuroda|Kuroda]] look at the retraction, [[Rum]] sends an email to [[Rei Furuya|Rei]], demanding that he gather information about Shinichi Kudo.

[[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] and [[Yusaku Kudo|Yusaku]] have returned to Japan and reveal to Conan that they convinced the blog owner to retract her claim in exchange for their autographs. They decide to remain in the country for the foreseeable future, in light of Yusaku's interpretation of [[Koji Haneda]]'s dying message, which leads them and Conan to believe that [[Renya Karasuma]] is connected to the [[Black Organization]]. Yusaku goes as far to declare that, in light of this revelation, Conan has made an enemy of the most powerful man in all of Japan, even though Karasuma should be long dead.</spoiler>

== Trivia ==
* Just before this case, the [[The Gathering of the Detectives! Shinichi Kudo vs. Kaitou Kid#Remaster|special episode]] which introduced Renya Karasuma was remastered as a two-halves episode.
* [[The Secret of the Moon, the Star, and the Sun]] was before Haibara transferred in the manga, while in the anime version she didn't came here, so the Detective Boys' statement is wrong.
* Just like in [[The Darkest Nightmare]], Rum was only given a computerized altered voice, and the credits do not list a voice actor. They did this intentionally so that no one could look up what other characters that voice actor/actress might play.

Meanwhile, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]], bed-ridden with a cold, enjoys [[Ran Mouri|Ran]]'s agreement to hook up. He goes to see [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] and reads in the news that someone saw [[Shinichi Kudo]] at Kyoto and on TV. He starts being very nervous and asks Haibara and [[Heiji Hattori|Heiji]] about it, while Ran, [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]], and [[Masumi Sera|Masumi]] read it as well. The media overrun Heiji and Shinichi's high schools, and Shinichi's house, though [[Subaru Okiya|Okiya]] can't let them in. The Detective Boys believe Maria went to her late paternal grandparents' house and took part to the scavenger hunt they organized for her. Haibara helps the Detective Boys to follow the arrows and understand the messages. Suddenly, they arrive in a room where a bookshelf was knocked over, and fear Maria might be stuck under it. But it's not the case and there is instead another code to decipher.

=== Part 2 ===
The Detective Boys understand Maria went downstairs and try to find out the other arrows. Shinichi has still trouble finding who is the "Kudo Family Freak" blog owner and how to stop all that mess. Ran tries to figure out what happens and why is Shinichi considered like a ghost. Heiji tells Conan he'll try to settle things on his side. The Detective Boys finally arrive to a bathroom but the only arrow points to the shower, and there's nothing inside. They convince Haibara to ask Conan's help, and the latter tells them to give some water to the drinking bird next to the arrow.

The Detective Boys give the drinking bird a glass of water and the bird starts bending and unbending. They then notice the glass's water has reversed the arrow's direction, which now points towards the opposite direction of the bathroom, another room the kids fail to open. [[Kanenori Wakita]] rings at Professor Agasa's door and asks what's is the hustle and bustle in front of their neightbours' house all about, he can't do his deliveries.

Conan tells the Detective Boys that the door isn't locked but the difference in temperatures between the cold corridor and the warm room where Maria is, creates a pressure gradient that can be dispelled by pushing the door strongly and opening a vent. Maria is indeed inside, asleep. She had come to watch some videos of her grandparents, but was then unable to open the door to leave the room, and thought she had to watch every video for the door to open.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>
[[File:EP942 11.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Carasuma]]
Heiji tells the press outside his school that it was [[Soshi Okita|Okita]] that was caught on film and not Shinichi. At the same time, the owner of the blog suddenly retracts her claim that she saw Shinichi.

As Wakita, [[Rumi Wakasa|Wakasa]], and [[Hyoue Kuroda|Kuroda]] look at the retraction, [[Rum]] sends an email to [[Rei Furuya|Rei]], demanding that he gather information about Shinichi Kudo.

[[Yukiko Kudo|Yukiko]] and [[Yusaku Kudo|Yusaku]] have returned to Japan and reveal to Conan that they convinced the blog owner to retract her claim in exchange for their autographs. They decide to remain in the country for the foreseeable future, in light of Yusaku's interpretation of [[Koji Haneda]]'s dying message, which leads them and Conan to believe that [[Renya Karasuma]] is connected to the [[Black Organization]]. Yusaku goes as far to declare that, in light of this revelation, Conan has made an enemy of the most powerful man in all of Japan, even though Karasuma should be long dead.</spoiler>

== Trivia ==
* Just before this case, the [[The Gathering of the Detectives! Shinichi Kudo vs. Kaitou Kid#Remaster|special episode]] which introduced Renya Karasuma was remastered as a two-halves episode.
* [[The Secret of the Moon, the Star, and the Sun]] was before Haibara transferred in the manga, while in the anime version she didn't came here, so the Detective Boys' statement is wrong.
* Just like in [[The Darkest Nightmare]], Rum was only given a computerized altered voice, and the credits do not list a voice actor. They did this intentionally so that no one could look up what other characters that voice actor/actress might play.

== Café Rice Flower Murder Case ==
{{ref anime|919-920|The Secret Café of the High School Girl Trio}}
=== File 994 - Ran's Trace... ===
Kogoro and Conan notices that Ran has behave strangely. Kogoro suspects that Shinichi is seducing Ran, and while Conan knows that it can't be the case, they decide to follow her.

=== File 995 - You Don't Know? ===
Conan and Kogoro spy on Ran, Sonoko and Masumi who are having some lunch at Café Rice Flower, all the while marvelling at the pictures of a travel guide. Suddenly, one of the waiters is found dead, bludgeoned in the staff room. Conan hardly tries to solve the case while at the same time thinking about cracking Ran's secret. Masumi investigates as well.

=== File 996 - The Truth about the Trip ===
<spoiler>
The culprit is '''Isuzu Naomura'''. The victim destroyed her family's café by critizing it on his blog and her parents committed suicide because of it. While the quality of the food did get worse, Isuzu was enraged that the victim had claimed to be a regular customer of the café, but didn't seem to know her when they first met, meaning that he never ate at the café and just based his review on gossip.
It turns out that the secret trip to Kyoto is a field trip with the school.

=== File 997 - Haibara's Mood ===
Conan tries to convince Haibara to give him some antidotes in order to go to the Kyoto trip with Ran in his adult form. Haibara keeps refusing, and suddenly she finds out she lost her Higo puppet phone strap this latter gave her in the bleacher during the football match. She freezes in fear and grief and cuts herself off from everyone. Conan makes a deal with Haibara : he'll go and backtrack with the Detective Boys to find her phone strap, in exchange for the antidotes. Conan and the Boys are helped by Bourbon and rush to the train stations' lost property, all the while being spied on by a strange man.

=== File 998 - Search for the Phone Strap! ===
Conan and Bourbon deduce that a boy from the train mistook Haibara's puppet for his own after the train suddenly and abruptly braked, as everyone lost their balance and kids fell on the ground. They also believe that the boy and his dad were on their way to a certain beach to gather seashells, something they would usually do as they were very tan. Bourbon asks his colleague Yuya Kazami to board the train Conan and co took and to check the words the little kid left on the train compartment window after blowing mist over it. The boy actually wrote his name, Yuuto. At the beach, Conan and co asks for Yuuto and his father. These latter apologise and give Conan back Haibara's puppet, in exchange for Yuuto's one Conan found at the lost property. But the mysterious man spying on them grabs it and runs away.

=== File 999 - Not Just Any Charm! ===
Conan and the Boys eventually find the thief again, who had quickly bought new clothes to leave the beach incognito. Conan and Bourbon reveal he is a jewel trafficker as he had hidden a precious ring in a Higo puppet, and he lost it during the train's sudden braking, and he did accordingly everything to recover it, following the Boys to find the two other Higo puppets. Actually, the man says he's not a trafficker as the jewel was for his girlfriend and he didn't want to lose this engagement ring. Conan and Bourbon realise there are actually three puppets, the man's one with the jewel, Yuuto's one and Haibara's one, which had fallen into Genta's hood in the train. Genta remembers he put his hood on at the diner's car park as it was raining and a few things fell from it, including his detective badge. They go back to the diner's park and find indeed the puppet under a car, but completely soaked and dirty. Conan has caught a cold by jumping into the sea to protect the man's puppet. When he gives Haibara the Detective-Boys-mended-and-cleaned but horrible-looking Higo puppet, Haibara gets in a fit of rage and says she'll never give any antidote to Conan ever.

=== File 1000 - The Scarlet Ceiling ===
Shinichi eventually manages to take part to the Kyoto trip with Ran and their friends, thanks to the series of antidotes Haibara gave Conan. Each time Conan takes an antidote, he has to wait 8 hours after the back shrinking before taking another one. Shinichi and Ran secretly hope that Ran will give an answer to Shinichi's love declaration back in London. On the Kiyomizu-Dera, Shinichi meets Keiko, an actress and old friend of his mother, who stays in the same hotel as Shinichi and his class, with some university friends with which she shot a blockbuster revolving around a tengu and other monsters. She asks Shinichi to help her to decipher a mysterious code written and sent by their late friend Michio Dekuri, who committed suicide some time ago. The code was received by Nishiki, the movie's screenwriter, along with red aralia leaves, typical from Kyoto. Shinichi tries to solve it, while enjoying Kyoto with his friends, in particular Masumi, who knows Conan is Shinichi but still keeps it a secret. The group of friends visit Kyoto's temples and their gruesome crimson ceilings, that were at first the temple's floors spilled with the blood of samurais who committed mass suicide/seppuku and left many footprints, it was so astounding that the floors were kept and turned into ceilings. A mysterious tan man with a big backpack looks at his watch all the while gazing at Shinichi. Back to the hotel, Shinichi still struggles with the code when Keiko calls him in emergency, he rushes to Nishiki's room and they find the screenwriter stabbed to death, with two bumps on his forehead, his notes spread everywhere and his room's ceiling covered with blood and footprints that lead to an opened window.

=== File 1001 - The Crimson Demon ===
<spoiler>
The mysterious man observing Shinichi is '''Heiji Hattori'''. Inspector Ayanokoji from the Kyoto Police is called for the investigation of Nishiki's murder. Another code and aralia leaf was found in his jacket, suggesting that there may be other victims. The blood on the ceiling was actually red painting. Shinichi rushes to his room as he suddenly feels the usual shrinking pain, he pretends a cold and hides under his blanket, starting to scream. As Nakamichi comes closer to check if everything's okay, Heiji Hattori, who was under the bed, switch places with Conan and shouts with a kansai-accent voice to leave him alone. Heiji has to stay under the blanket, pretending to be Shinichi, and Conan stays under the bed, until the morning. Conan then takes another antidote and as he receives another mail from Keiko, he runs with Heiji to Agata's room, Keiko's freind and art specialist, who has been yelling since a moment. As a groom opens his door, they see Agata on the floor, shaking in fear, being watched by a huge and freaky tengu. Agata throws an ashtray to it and the tengu vanishes in an explosion.
</spoiler>

=== File 1002 - The Auburn Inuyarai ===
Shinichi is having breakfast with Masumi and they talk about the tengu and the two bumps Agata received on his forehead, along with the aralia and another code, which reminds Shinichi that Keiko also got a bump during a filming accident. The bumps remind them of the Kabutori tale. Ran turns up, very angry, having been told by Nakamichi and many others of the class that Shinichi had said he and Ran had snogged each other in London. Shinichi denies it, remembering Heiji's blunder yesterday. Meanwhile Masumi is kidding Shinichi with his "too short or too long tracksuit". They have a look at Keiko's upcoming movie's poster with the tengu and Shinichi tells the whole story, especially the suicide of Keiko's husband in the film, who became a tengu afterwards, and the kissing scene at the end on the Kiyomizu-Dera. Ran remembers seeing Keiko commemorating the death of her friend Dekuri, on the Kiyomizu, with great sadness. As Shinichi and co wonder where to go sightseeing today, Shinichi receives a call from Heiji telling him that Nishiki's four friends are going with the police in a Kyoto city centre restaurant to make it clear about who Dekuri was and why he had made these codes, as someone seems to try and avenge his death. Shinichi then proposes Ran and co to have lunch at the same restaurant. Once in front of it, they meet Momiji Ooka who was searching for a place where to have lunch too and who explains what an inuyarai is, the strange big curved wooden box on the walls of the old houses, built either to stop thieves or prevent dogs from urinating on the walls, or to mark the street out. Ran asks Momiji about Soshi Okita, the kendo practitioner, and she replies she knows him well, he's in her class. As they're entering the restaurant, people start screaming that tengus are everywhere in the street and harassing people. The police, Heiji, Shinichi and the others make teams and chase the tengus. Momiji and Sonoko are rescued by Iori. When the tengus are arrested, they are revealed to be people who agreed to win 100,000 yens in exchange for playing monsters in the street around the restaurant. Heiji and Shinichi understand that this was a trap to keep police and witnesses away from the restaurant, and they backtrack as quick as possible, only to find the dead body of Ihaya, Keiko's movie's main actor, whose throat was slit, and whose blood was probably used to make footprints, which seems impossible as there has only been a few minutes between the time when Shinichi and co left and when they returned.

=== File 1003 - Rosy Brown Traces ===
While investigating the murder, Shinichi makes a blunder and imitates Conan's voice, making Ran upset and Masumi smirking. Another code with an aralia is found in Ihaya's pocket. Kazuha calls Heiji in anger and asks him why the media are filming him next to Shinichi in Kyoto, and Heiji replies he went to Kyoto to look for a talisman to cure his cold. Momiji suggests the characters on the codes look like the names of streets and districts of Kyoto. Momiji takes Heiji's phone and taunts Kazuha about Heiji being for her and not for Kazuha/Happa-chan. Keiko, Agata and Mayama, the film director, tell Ayanokoji about Dekuri, who was mad at his friends for adapting his manga as a movie without his permission, and decided to dump them and stand away from them. Some time after, he called them to ask if they could make sure his name appear somewhere in the movie, as he acknowledges it is good work after all. But when he went to see the preview, he found his name nowhere because of a mistake from the producers, and threw himself from the Kiyomizu. Just as Ran wanted to meet Okita, she comes across him near the restaurant. Okita had come with friends to catch the tengus. Sonoko realises Okita really is Shinichi's lookalike. Ran says she wanted to talk to Okita, the latter being very pleased with it. Ran takes him aside and tells him something very secretive and intimate. In Los Angeles, Yukiko and Yusaku answer to their son's call for information about Keiko and her friends. Yukiko says Keiko's stage name is Kyoko, she changed her name due to something that happened in university. She says Nishiki and Mayama also changed name for the movie. Yukiko says maybe what happened at college for Keiko was that she secretly loved another student, to the point she is still not married today, as she keeps thinking about him. Yusaku hints at the fact it may be Dekuri, and Yukiko asks him why. Sonoko sends Shinichi a picture of Ran and Okita very close and talking together in secret, which upsets Shinichi. Ran is surprised to see Heiji in Kyoto as well. The group then heads for the hotel, as there's something weird with the booking of the rooms of Keiko and her friends : Nishiki tried to book a smoking room but there was none vacant in the whole hotel, but afterwards someone called right after and checked out all the rooms. Shinichi keeps thinking about Okita and wonders if Ran really fell in love with him, tired to wait for Shinichi. Suddenly, Shinichi feels the shrinking pain again just as he finds out the truth on the serial murders, and he quickly asks for the help of Ayanokoji for a special plan.

'''{{nihongo|Taka'aki Morofushi|諸伏高明|Morofushi Takaaki}}''', more commonly known as '''{{nihongo|Komei|高明|Kōmei}}''' is a character in the manga and anime franchise ''[[Detective Conan]]''.

== Background ==
Morofushi's parents died and his younger brother were taken in by relatives in Tokyo.
Morofushi and [[Kansuke Yamato]] were both students at the same elementary school, which is where the two met.<ref name=Komei/> Morofushi's exploits were so well known that a book about a child who solved a case in a elementary school, titled "Komei-kun from Second Second Grade Class A!" was based off of him, while another character in the book was based off of Yamato.<ref name=Komei/> Morofushi cherishes the book, keeping it in the glove compartment of his car, as the author was a friend of his who died.<ref name=Komei>[[The Mansion of Death and the Red Wall|Episodes 558-561: The Mansion of Death and the Red Wall]]</ref> He was originally a high ranking inspector in Nagano, until he abandoned his job briefly to try and find Yamato when he was left for dead in the snow during a case.<ref name=Komei/> After Morofushi found the suspect, and helped save Yamato, he was demoted as an inspector in a local force in Nagano.<ref name=Komei/> In episode 653, it is revealed that he has effectively returned to the main headquarters.

== Personality ==
Komei is generally shown to be calm and well-mannered, in contrast to the quick-tempered Yamato. According to Yamato, Komei tends to ignore others completely while investigating, and sometimes goes out of his jurisdiction to try and solve a case. He will even put his life on the line if he has to. The rivalry between Yamato and Morofushi is mostly a friendly one, in which they see who can solve the case first, and Yamato has tried to get Morofushi back onto the regular force. Also, Yamato has been willing to go into a burning building to save his life.

He also thanks Yamato for allowing him to see [[Conan Edogawa]] at work, also understanding Conan's intelligence after the Red Wall case.<ref name=Komei/> He even believes, and confides this to Yamato, that if it weren't for Conan's observations, they would have never even come close to solving the case.<ref name=Komei/> He even compares Conan to a young version of Zhuge Liang.<ref name=Komei/>

== Relationships analysis ==
=== Family & Friends ===
==== Hiromitsu Morofushi ====
In file 1020, it's revealed that Komei has an younger brother working MPD, who were taken in by relatives in Tokyo, when their parents died. But Komei hasn't been in touch with him, and doesn't know where he is or what he is doing. The last he heard was that he quit the force and got another assignment. It is later revealed in file 1021 that his younger brother is Scotch, who's real name is [[Hiromitsu Morofushi]].

==== Kansuke Yamato ====

== Name origin ==
[[File:Koumei nickname.jpg|200px|thumb|right|The Komei nickname in kanji with a katakana reading.]]
The nickname '''Komei''' (高明) comes from the Japanese reading of '''Kong-ming''' (孔明), the courtesy name of [[Wikipedia: Three Kingdoms|Three Kingdoms]] era Chinese strategist '''[[Wikipedia: Zhuge Liang|Zhuge Liang]]''' (諸葛亮). Komei got this nickname most probably because the ''on'yomi'' (Sino-Japanese reading) of the name 諸伏高明 is ''Shofuku Kōmei'', somewhat similar to ''Shokatsu Kōmei'', the Japanese reading of Zhuge Kongming.

== Quotes ==
{{cquote|Make no intrusion into others' affairs. When it comes to relationships between close people, outsiders must never interfere.{{citation needed}}}}

== Trivia ==
* During Taka'aki's first appearance, after hearing him noting about the case being under his department's jurisdiction and learning his name, Conan inwardly commented "''Shokatsu no Kōmei''" (Komei's jurisdiction). This is a pun on the Japanese reading of Zhuge Kongming.

{{nihongo|'''Shiho Miyano'''|宮野志保|Miyano Shiho}} is a former [[Black Organization]] researcher, codenamed '''{{nihongo|"Sherry"|シェリー|Sherī}}''', who was working on [[APTX 4869]]. After the Black Organization killed her [[Akemi Miyano|sister]], she took APTX 4869 to commit suicide but shrank instead. She fled the Black Organization and now currently goes under the alias of '''[[Ai Haibara]]'''.

==Background==
[[Image:Shiho_Miyano_computer_picture.jpg|left|200px|thumb|Shiho as she appears on Pisco's computer in the manga version]] Shiho Miyano and her older sister, Akemi Miyano, were born into the secret crime syndicate known unofficially as the [[Black Organization]]. Shiho's English mother, [[Elena Miyano]], and Japanese father, [[Atsushi Miyano]], were both important researchers for the Black Organization. They both died in what other members of the Black Organization described as an accident while Shiho was very young.

While Akemi lived a normal life, Shiho was sent to America as a small child to go to school and was groomed to finish her parents' research on [[APTX 4869]].<ref> File 384-386 Volume 38 File 2-4</ref> Most of her time in America was lonely; she ate lunch alone, and was otherwise isolated from her peers for being different. Despite the difficult social situation, Shiho was an academic prodigy, and by the age of thirteen she was working as a highly ranked scientist for the Black Organization.<ref>Akai started infiltrating the Black Organization five years ago. He did so by becoming Akemi’s girlfriend in order to get close to Shiho and use her influence to get in. (Manga Volume 58, File 2, pg 9: "Akai's Past") According to the FBI’s description, Shiho was “a scientist for them” at the time. Furthermore, this took place in Japan since everyone was speaking Japanese, Akemi lived in Japan, and the FBI bust two years prior to the current timeline was in Japan (607 pg 8). If Shiho is 18 in the present, then she would have been 13 at the time that Akai started infiltrating the Black Organization, and she was already a scientist for them at this point and high ranked.</ref> Her codename in the Black Organization is "Sherry", after the alcoholic drink.
Her only real friend was Akemi, who only involved herself in the organization to get Shiho out.

At some point she might have visiting the Mermaid Island, where there supposedly lived a woman rumored to be immortal.

Shiho was about 18 years old when she developed the most current incarnation of the experimental test compound [[APTX 4869]]. Although it was not her intended purpose<ref>Manga Volume 18, File 9, page 9</ref>, she discovered that it could be used as a poison to kill without leaving any traces of itself in a body. While researching its effects, Shiho noticed that one of her lab mice had become younger after being given the drug instead of dying. Meanwhile, the Black Organization started using APTX 4869 to commit untraceable murders.

After the death of her sister at the hands of [[Gin]], she rebelled against the Black Organization, refusing to complete any work for them until she received a satisfactory explanation for why her sister was killed. Instead she was confined to a small room to await her execution. She took an APTX 4869 pill she had pocketed earlier to commit suicide, but shrank instead to elementary school child age. That allowed her to slip her handcuffs and escape via a rubbish chute. Her only hope was her suspicions about the potential survival of [[Shinichi Kudo]], the only unconfirmed death of the human trial subjects. She fled towards Shinichi's house, but collapsed in the rain outside the house of Shinichi's neighbor, [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]]. Agasa found and adopted her, and she now lives with him under the alias [[Ai Haibara]].
{{clearleft}}

==Personality==
Initially, Shiho was very cynical, which was reflected in her valuing her own security above idealistic principles of justice. She also did not wish to become close to others. While attending school in America, she ate lunch alone<ref>[[Volume 30|Volume 30, File 303: "Genta's Misfortune"]]</ref>. It was only by repeatedly approaching her that the [[Detective Boys]] and [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] finally became her friends. Shiho was also untrusting of others in general, and preferred to put on an expressionless, cold mask while bottling up her pain and sadness. Shiho's views about death have been complex and at times contradictory. She was prepared to likely kill [[Ki'ichiro Numabuchi]] with APTX 4869 as part of her tests, but on the other hand, she detested the Black Organization's use of APTX as a killing tool and Conan labeling her as a murderer.
Her fascination with her work seems to be stronger than fear for the organization, while she was still a member, since she risked changing Shinichi Kudo's data to avoid him getting killed before she could study him.

Shiho speaks very formally.

===Changes as Ai Haibara===
Her time as [[Ai Haibara]] has softened her personality, making her more optimistic and open to Conan's idealistic pursuit of justice.

== Appearance ==
Shiho is a thin woman of average height with naturally wavy auburn hair at mid neck length. Although she is multiracial, she is Japanese looking. Many characters refer to her as very beautiful, a trait she seems to have inherited from her mother.

== Abilities and skills ==
===Biochemistry===
Shiho is a biochemical genius, taking up her parents' research work on [[APTX 4869]] for the Black Organization by the age of thirteen after going to school in America.

===Medical knowledge===
Shiho has demonstrated knowledge of medicine, recognizing the symptoms of Shiratori's [[Wikipedia:Subdural hematoma|subdural hematoma]].<ref>Tokyo hostage/Matsuda case</ref> Using knowledge of osteology, she also is able to deduce a long decayed woman's ambulatory condition.<ref>Castle treasure case</ref>

=== Detective skills ===
Shiho was able to deduce Conan as Shinichi by inspecting the clues left in Kudo residence. As Haibara, she shows sharp observation, keen thinking process and ability to make logical deduction; however, unlike Conan/Shinichi, she often lacks specialized knowledge or experience to make the conclusive argument to solve the case. Moreover, to avoid attention, she stays quiet, which Conan often takes the spotlight. Haibara does not identify herself as a "mystery freak" as Conan. In the few cases that Haibara leads the investigation, she shows that she can be a great detective on her own, although this is not her prime speciality. Haibara has also known to read some mysteries like
Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot novels and PD James's Cordelia Gray novel but it is not known whether she enjoys the genre.

==="Black Organization sense"===
[[Image:Ai's BO radar.png|thumb|right|Shiho as Haibara senses a Black Organization member is nearby.]]
Shiho has the ability to sense when Black Organization members are around, which she characterizes as their unique "smell" or "pressure". So far, her sense only detects Black Organization members and not people with malevolent intent generally,<ref>She has only claimed the sense for Black Organization members, and she does not seem to have the same magnitude reaction around people who aren't, such as case culprits, although she may be generally suspicious of them;</ref> however, it doesn't always trigger when Black Organization members are present.<ref>This is the case especially when the Black Organization members aren't focusing or in an aggressive mood. Numabuchi is an example of this.</ref> nor does it reveal their numbers.<ref>The case with Vermouth and Shuichi on the bus, and when she was unsure if Pisco had an accomplice (Vermouth) at the party.</ref> Sometimes the sense is fleeting ([[Subaru Okiya|Subaru]], or [[Shuichi Akai|Shuichi]] passing by pursuing [[James Black]]), or context sensitive (when Akemi was planning the bank robbery).

===Pain tolerance===
[[Gin|Like]] [[Vermouth|other]] Black Organization members, Shiho has also demonstrated a strong tolerance for pain. During the initial apoptoxin transformation, Shiho does not scream despite the sensation of 'bones melting', as doing so would likely have ended in being caught and killed when someone came to check on her. It is unclear if she even passes out at all, and regardless she manages to recover quickly enough to escape through a chute/ventilation shaft before her captors know anything happened.

Additionally, she climbs barefoot up a chimney while extremely sick from the effects of a cold combined with [[Baijiu]]-induced regrowth. She then crawls back to the chimney after she is shot multiple times by Gin on the frigid, snowy roof. She still maintains consciousness after falling down the chimney over a story in height and experiencing the agony of reverting back to Ai Haibara. Nowhere during this ordeal or her rescue afterwards did she cry from the pain. Shiho also handled the painful side affects of being reverting back to an adult with a [[prototype antidote]] better than Shinichi.

===Shooting===
Shiho is familiar with firearms. As Haibara, she was confident enough to intentionally miss a shot with a handgun.

===Driving===
In Lupin III vs Detective Conan The Movie, Haibara is able to ride a Harley motorbike, she stated that she used to own a Harley when she was Shiho.

In The Disappearance of Edogawa Conan, she is shown driving a car as Haibara.

==Plot overview==
===Prior to Escape===
After being orphaned by the death of [[Atsushi Miyano|her]] [[Elena Miyano|parents]] at a young age, Shiho was groomed to take over their [[APTX 4869]] research project. She was educated overseas in America before returning to Japan at or before she was 13. She became a high ranking member, codenamed Sherry, in the Black Organization's internal drug development division.<ref>Conan Drill page 237</ref> When she was about 13,<ref>Five years before present timeline</ref> undercover [[FBI]] agent [[Shuichi Akai]] began dating Shiho's sister [[Akemi Miyano]] in order to use Shiho's rank to his advantage while infiltrating the Black Organization.

During the 5+ years Shiho worked in the Black Organization lab, Akemi was Shiho's lifeline to normalcy and her primary emotional support within the darkness of the Black Organization. Akemi would arrange meetings with Shiho in restaurants and such to chat about current happenings, and Shiho would sometimes tell Akemi about her Black Organization activities, although it appears she did not go into much detail.<ref name="Akemi Meeting">Volume 18, File 10, Page 15</ref> Akemi would also send Shiho floppies of pictures of her travels and friends which Shiho would quickly look at. During this time, Shiho accidentally mixed up the disks and mailed a disk of extremely sensitive information back to Akemi by mistake. The disk eventually would up in the hands of Akemi's professor friend, Masami Hirota.

[[Image:Investigation_Kudo's_house.jpg‎|thumb|left|170px|Search team were sent to Kudo's house to investigate.]]Closer to the beginning of the current timeline, Shiho Miyano was ordered to test the most recent, yet still incomplete, version of APTX 4869 on [[Ki'ichiro Numabuchi]], a failed assassin. Shiho received the data about him, but he managed to escape the Black Organization before she could test it on him. Shiho fled the Black Organization herself soon after, so her superiors never found a substitute test subject. [[Shinichi Kudo]] wound up being the first "guinea pig" of APTX 4869 according to [[Gin]], who decided to use the newly approved poison to kill him after Shinichi witnessed a Black Organization transaction.

Unaware of the APTX 4869's rare deaging side effect when they used it on Shinichi Kudo, the Black Organization ordered a search for him because his body had not been found. As the creator of the drug, Shiho was part of the team who searched Shinichi's house twice to confirm his death. She began to suspect Shinichi's transformation when she noticed his clothes from primary school had disappeared between the first and second searches. Sometime earlier, one mouse dosed with APTX 4869 had become younger, so she suspected something similar had happened to Shinichi. Shiho did not want the Black Organization to kill such an interesting "test subject" before she could examine him, so Shiho confirmed Shinichi as deceased so the organization would not look into the matter further. Shiho later met with Akemi and told her that she went to Kudo's house in Beika city to "look after something".<ref name="Akemi Meeting"/>

==== Akemi's robbery plan and death ====
[[Image:Conan newspaper.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Conan's picture in the newspaper article about Akemi Miyano's death. Shiho remembered Conan from this picture.]]
Meanwhile, Akemi Miyano wished that she and Shiho could leave the Black Organization. The Black Organization itself was in an awkward position as Akemi had been in love with the FBI spy, Shuichi Akai, whose true allegiance had since been uncovered when Shiho was about 16.<ref>Two years before present timeline</ref> The Black Organization could not simply kill Akemi because that would jeopardize the loyalty of Shiho, who was valuable to the Black Organization's research efforts. Exasperated, the Black Organization came up with a trap for Akemi; they told her that she could leave the Black Organization with Shiho if she would rob 10 billion yen from a bank for them. The Black Organization expected Akemi to fail, which would give them the excuse to eliminate her while keeping Shiho loyal; however Akemi, with a team of robbers, succeeded in obtaining the money.

In the event of her success, the Black Organization had designed the second part of the robbery plan so that Akemi's assistants would kill each other or be unintentionally killed by the unwitting Akemi. However one accomplice had fled, forcing Akemi to use detective [[Kogoro Mouri]] to find him. After her first meeting with Kogoro, Akemi met with Shiho again.<ref name="Akemi Meeting"/> Akemi had not told Shiho about the robbery plan, but it seems that Shiho's detection of the Black Organization aura from Akemi<ref>Mitsuhiko's Mystifying Forest case (some translations do not have this line correct)</ref> and gossip had made Shiho aware that Akemi had done something dangerous. Without telling Shiho about the robbery, Akemi redirected the conversation to [[Conan Edogawa]], whom Akemi said was brilliant and had the composure of an adult. This conversation likely helped Shiho deduce Conan's identity as the missing Shinichi.

Later, after all the accomplices were killed, Akemi planned to hand access to the money over to Gin and Vodka at the shipyard.<ref>This is based on the manga version of this case. The anime alters this scene</ref> Instead, Gin murdered Akemi. A newspaper took a photo of the crime scene that included Conan looking downcast. Shiho later identified Conan using it.

Shiho already resented the Black Organization for using the incomplete APTX 4869 for killing purposes, but the news of Akemi's death was the final straw that induced Shiho to boycott her research until she received an official explanation for why her sister was killed. She was aware that Akemi pulled out a robbery, but Shiho might have suspended that there was more to the story. The Black Organization refused, and faced with the possibility that Shiho could defect or do something else drastic in revenge, decided to cut their loses by executing Shiho.

[[Image:Shiho_taking_APTX4869.jpg|thumb|left|220px|Shiho swallows the [[APTX 4869]]]]

===Escape from the Black Organization===
Awaiting her execution, Shiho was handcuffed to a wall in a sealed room that also featured a garbage chute too small for an adult to fit in. With no other way out, she took a pill of APTX 4869 she had pocketed to commit suicide before she could be killed, but instead she shrank into a six- or seven-year-old girl. In her new, smaller body, she slipped her hand free of the cuff and used the garbage chute to escape the sealed room. She then attempted to reach Shinichi Kudo's house, hoping he might be able to help her. Exhausted, she collapsed in front of Kudo's house, where she was found by [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]], who eventually adopted her.<ref>Manga Chapter 179: The Girl Made Of Lies</ref> After this, Shiho Miyano took up the role of Ai Haibara. It turned out later that Agasa was a professional acquaintance of her parents and had spoken some with her father, [[Atsushi Miyano]], even though Agasa didn't know at that time the Miyanos had children.<ref>Manga Chapter 398: The Torn Friendship, Part 1</ref><ref>Manga Chapter 423: A Mystery Left by a Visitor</ref>

===As Ai Haibara ===
[[File:Sherry's Soliloquy.PNG|thumb|right|super|Shiho as Ai Haibara, colored by Gosho Aoyama for [[Sherry's soliloquy]]]]
{{Main|Ai Haibara#Plot overview}}
===Reunion with the Black Organization (Manga: [[Volume 24|238-242]], Anime: [[Reunion with the Black Organization|176-178]])===
In [[Reunion with the Black Organization]], Conan and Haibara find Gin's [[Cars#Porsche_356A|Porsche]] by chance. Conan plants a tracker and transmitter in the parked car and eavesdrops on Gin and Vodka when they return. Gin calls an agent named [[Pisco]] and discusses part of a plan to kill someone at a mourning party that will take place at the [[Haido City Hotel]]. Gin tells Pisco he can use the [[APTX 4869|"experimental detective"]] if needed. Gin then finds the tracker and destroys it, believing Sherry placed it there because he also found a single red hair that Haibara inadvertently lost while Conan was planting the bugs. Gin then warns Pisco about Sherry. Although initially reluctant, after hearing Pisco has APTX, Haibara decides to go to the party to try to obtain a sample. Pisco, who knew Shiho as a child, recognizes her as Haibara, kidnaps her using chloroform, and confines her in a wine storage room in another part of the hotel. He doesn't get the opportunity to tell anyone about his discovery because the police are rounding up suspects for the mourning party murder and he is one of them.

After Haibara wakes up, Conan tells Haibara to drink some [[baijiu]] in order to escape. While waiting for the change to occur, she copies some APTX data from a computer Pisco left behind onto a floppy disk. Haibara turns back into Shiho and changes into some leftover janitor clothes that Pisco left behind in the room as part of his disguise. Gin and Vodka break into the storage room looking for Pisco, but Shiho manages to hide herself just before they arrive by bracing her body in the chimney. Unfortunately, Gin hears her breathing and finds another one of her hairs. Instead of simply shooting her in the chimney, however, he goes to the roof to wait for her to finish climbing.

[[image:Sherry-getting-shot.png|thumb|left|175px|Shiho shot by Gin.]] After she climbs out of the chimney, Shiho is confronted by Gin, who shoots her from behind. After exchanging some banter, Gin demands to know how Shiho escaped from the locked chamber room. Shiho remains silent, so Gin shoots her several more times non-fatally, hoping she will crack. Eventually, Gin and Vodka realize she won't talk, so Gin prepares to kill her. Conan meanwhile has arrived and darts Gin in the back with his tranquilizer watch. Using the voice changer to disguise his voice, Conan orders her to get back to the chimney. Vodka shoots Shiho just as she reaches the chimney, so Shiho falls down awkwardly.

In the fireplace, Shiho reverts back into Ai Haibara while Pisco watches. He congratulates her for having made so much progress on the APTX, whose effects he has just witnessed. He tells Shiho he was a close friend of the Miyanos while they were still alive, and they told him much about the drug they were developing. He knew her from when she was a baby, even though Shiho does not remember him. Pisco prepares to shoot her, but Conan stops him by distracting him at the last minute. Conan manages to trick Pisco into setting himself and the room on fire, and carries Haibara out of the room on his back before Pisco can find them again. Gin comes down the chimney and confronts Pisco. Before Pisco is able to tell Gin the truth about Shiho and APTX 4869, Gin kills Pisco for accidentally getting his picture taken in the act of murder during the mourning party.

Conan sneaks Haibara to Agasa's beetle and gives her his jacket. Haibara then lies to Conan about losing the disk of APTX data she copied.<ref>The bloody disk is on the bottom of the stack shown in Volume 25 File 9 (Chapter 251), Page 8 and Episode 188.</ref> Worried that the organization knows that she has shrunk, Haibara tells Conan she must leave the city. Agasa tells Haibara that her identity is safe because he eavesdropped on the conversation when Gin killed Pisco by using the tracking glasses Shiho dropped when she fell down the chimney.

[[File:Shiho video.jpg|thumb|220px|left|The video of Shiho saving the [[Detective Boys]] (filmed by [[Mitsuhiko]]) that [[Amuro]] found on [[Kogoro]]'s computer]]

=== Temporary antidote in Gunma (Manga: [[Volume 77|815-817]], Anime: [[The Shadow Approaching Haibara's Secret|699-700]])===
On a camping trip in Gunma, the Detective Boys run across a murderer burying a body and are chased to a cabin in the woods where the killer and the victim had been staying. The murderer bars the door and sets the cabin alight with the children inside. The strength of the children is not enough to open the door and Ayumi passes out from the smoke. With Conan nowhere nearby, Haibara takes a temporary [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]], borrows the victim's clothing, and uses the murder weapon - an axe - to break down the door. Mitsuhiko, not realizing who she is, films her carrying Ayumi from the burning cabin and mails the video to Kogoro hoping he would find their savior. Bourbon logs into Kogoro's computer and sees the video, precipitating the events on the Bell Tree Express.

=== Impersonation by Kaitou Kid and faked death (Manga: [[Volume 78|818-824]], Anime: [[The Jet-Black Mystery Train|701-704]])===
[[File:Kaito_Shiho_824.PNG|thumb|right|150px|Kaitou Kid flies away in the Shiho disguise]]
To counter [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and [[Vermouth]]'s plan to capture or kill Shiho aboard the Bell Tree Express, Conan, with [[Subaru Okiya]] and [[Yukiko Kudo]]'s help, devised a plan to keep Haibara hidden and force the ignorant [[Kaitou Kid]], only present to scout ahead for a future heist, to disguise as Shiho and confront Bourbon. Bourbon wound up confronting "Shiho" and fell for the thief's disguise because Haibara told Kaitou Kid what to say. In the confusion that followed, Subaru Okiya separated the rearmost carriage from the train, which then blew up because Vermouth had planted explosives there intending to kill Shiho to prevent Bourbon from capturing her alive. Kaitou Kid escaped in the nick of time, but the rest of the Black Organization, sans Vermouth, now believe Shiho Miyano is dead.

==Relationships analysis==
===Family & Friends===
====Akemi Miyano====
After the death of Shiho's parents, Akemi became Shiho's only true ally within the darkness of the Black Organization. Through direct conversation and mail, Akemi showed Shiho the normal side of life that Shiho was unable to experience. Akemi would often admonish Shiho gently to do things normal for her age, such as encouraging her to get a boyfriend. Akemi's death had enough emotional impact to convince Shiho to betray the Black Organization by boycotting her research, even though she knew the act of defiance would likely result in her own death. Indicating that her sister was more important to Shiho than her research. Shiho greatly misses Akemi. In the non-canon [[Movie 5]], Shiho's desire to hear Akemi's voice again, even if only a message on a phone answering machine, was used by Gin and Vodka to nearly pinpoint Shiho's location.

====Elena Miyano====
Elena died when Shiho was young, so Shiho doesn't remember much of her. Elena left tapes for Shiho for each of her birthdays. Some of the messages are serious and mysterious, but others are more lighthearted and reveal things about Elena's past. It is clear from the tapes Elena loved Shiho very much, and Shiho misses her mother in turn and takes comfort in hearing her voice.

====Atsushi Miyano====
Shiho's feelings toward her late father is unknown, but she does show interest in seeing the house where he grew up.

====Wakasa Rumi====
It seems like Haibara was "triggered" by Rumi in the Burning Tent Murder Case when "prosthetic eye" was mentioned. Haibara then questioned whether Rumi got problems with her right eye's vision. But after the case was solved, she told Conan that she liked Rumi and that Conan shouldn't speak ill of her. Their relationship has been peaceful ever since.

===The Black Organization===
==== Gin ====
{{main|Gin and Sherry}}
[[Gin]] has an abnormal attachment for Shiho Miyano<ref name=CD239>Conan drill page 239</ref> and seems to enjoy hunting for her, while she seems to fear and hate him. They appear to know each other well despite being in different parts of the Organization. Gin can identify Shiho from a single auburn hair. [[Episode 129|When Shiho escaped from the Black Organization]], Gin began searching for her, ordering Vodka to bring her back dead or alive. Gin and Shiho had [[Reunion with the Black Organization|a direct confrontation]] later in the [[Setting#Haido City Hotel|Haido City Hotel]]. Since then, Shiho has managed to avoid any more direct contact with Gin.

The theory that the two may have had a romantic relationship in the past has been mentioned in at least one official guidebook for the manga<ref name=CD239/> and has some traction in the fandom. [[Gosho Aoyama]] has deferred questions related to the issue in past interviews, asking for fans to be patient.<ref>青山剛昌先生と話そうDAY (Let's talk with Aoyama Gosho-sensei day), held January 3, 2013 [http://www.detectiveconanworld.com/forum/topic/1555-translating-interviews/?p=287218]

Q: A girl asked about the "Sherry naked" thing, that why does Gin always think about her without clothes, what exactly is their relationship?

A: Gosho answered that they indeed had a relationship, but it wouldn't be interesting if (he) revealed it there, so please wait for it. The poster also mentioned that Gosho had a trolling (or something like that) laugh/smile at the time.
</ref>

==== Vodka ====
Shiho and [[Vodka]] have met and are acquaintances.<ref name=CD239/>

==== Vermouth ====
[[Vermouth]] and Shiho have some connection, although it has not been elaborated on. Shiho fears Vermouth more than other Black Organization members except perhaps Gin. Shiho was Vermouth's target, but Vermouth gave up on her after Conan's intervention. Vermouth appears to dislike the research the Miyanos engaged in, calling it foolish. Vermouth resents the Miyanos in general, but it is unclear if she hates Shiho specifically. That said, Vermouth considers Shiho to be someone who absolutely must die. If Shiho was in a romantic relationship with Gin, then Vermouth and Shiho were love rivals as Vermouth was in a sexual relationship with Gin.<ref name="CD239c">Conan Drill page 239, "恋のライバル…?" (Love rivals?)</ref>

====Shuichi Akai====
[[Shuichi Akai]] and Shiho are likely to have known each other via Akemi Miyano, whom Akai was dating. Shiho knew Akai under his alias "Dai Moroboshi", and she likely knows he was a spy and an FBI agent. In chapter 824, Bourbon mentions that Dai Moroboshi worked for the FBI in front of Kaitou Kid, disguised as Sherry, who was listening through a microphone <ref>Manga Chapter 824 ([http://25.media.tumblr.com/4b40277b84692b54c491654534be7ccf/tumblr_mpc528w9hS1qfn9zio1_r1_500.png])</ref>. Nonetheless, as Haibara, she is still afraid of and senses the "Black Organization aura" from Akai. Akai recognizes Haibara as Shiho, saying he is not willing to face her yet, likely over guilt related to the incidents culminating in Akemi's death.

==Name origin==
"Shiho" (志保) means "will and sail", her surname is "Miyano" (宮野) means "shrine field". Sherry is Detective Shunsaku Kudo's (from [[wikipedia:ja:探偵物語|Tantei Monogatari (Detective Tales)]]) favorite liquor.
