 Assuming the middle brother is between 16 (assumed lower range for Masumi's real age) and 35 (assumed upper range for Shuichi's age based on his appearance and reasonable full-blooding sibling age separation) the following characters could qualify as suspects in reverse order of their introduction date.  This age range can actually be narrowed down even more due to the Red Woman case, as the middle brother's classmates are stated to be 28-29, meaning that if he attended high school with them, he would be around that age.  While it states they are classmates, which would imply they were in the same grade and class, it was not specifically stated, so its possible to increase the age range to between 27-30, though 28-29 is far more likely and would make more sense.  Anyone not inside this age range could and should be excluded.

	Upon meeting in a ramen restaurant, both Yumi and Masumi describe Shukichi and the middle brother, respectively—going by each description, both men have near identical similarities. Both describe a man who wears round glasses, has a stubble, always wears 'track suits', looks like someone who failed the college entrance exams, has an excellent memory, and has a certain favorite saying.<ref name=928p14>Manga [[Volume 88]], File 2 (928): pg 14: "The Strange Customers of the Ramen Restaurant"</ref> Later on, Masumi calls her second brother for help with the case and Yumi calls Shukichi to see if he remembers something about the case, due to the fact that he saw the murderer run past him. Just after answering the call, Shukichi puts Yumi on hold to answer another call. Just a moment after Shukichi puts Yumi on hold, the middle brother answers Masumi call; he tells Masumi that he's on the phone with an important person, and she should call later. Just a moment after the middle brother hangs up on Masumi, Shukichi takes Yumi off of hold and continues talking to her. Shukichi's phone is black, and the model is, at the very least, strongly similar to the middle brother's phone.<ref name=929p13-14>Manga [[Volume 88]], File 3 (929): pgs 13-14: "The Culprit Who Swings the Hose!?"</ref> While Shukichi could have been turning down an interview request while he had Yumi on hold, he also could have been talking to Masumi. These two moments raise the probability of Shukichi being the middle brother even higher. Shukichi also has not only two phones—one of which is black, and appears to be the same model as the middle brother's—but two Shogi outfits. If Shukichi is the middle brother, he was likely wearing one of those outfits while answering Masumi's texts with his black phone.

	Yumi finally realizes that Shukichi is a shogi player and tries to find the envelope that he gave her when he set out to collect the seven shogi titles. She realizes that her apartment manager has gotten his hands on it and demands that she solve a puzzle to prove herself worthy of it. The contents of the envelope are revealed to be a marriage registration that shows the name of Shukichi's father to contain the family name "Akai," and his mother to have the family name "Sera.<ref>Manga [[Volume 89]], File 945-947</ref>"

	Although Subaru Okiya has been revealed to be Shuichi Akai, it is possible that he arranged for his sister to have a way to contact him, and she doesn't know where he is or what he is doing because their only point of contact is via phone. Okiya's phone is black, and the model is, at the very least, strongly similar to the middle brother's, and he has been shown to wear a jacket with a similar pattern (see manga volume images at the top of the page) to the same clothing of the arm that the middle brother was wearing.

	There are ~~four~~ conditions on which Subaru could be the "middle brother" or "the person contacting Masumi by phone": <BR>		There are three conditions on which Subaru could be the "middle brother" or "the person contacting Masumi by phone": <BR>
	1) Masumi ~~made up the existence of~~ a ~~second~~ brother ~~because~~ her oldest brother is supposed to be dead, meaning she couldn't tell people who she was talking to. This means that all of the descriptions of him to various people could either be fabrications, or descriptions of other people she knows. Also, because Masumi does not know that he would know Conan, he may have pretended not to know who was making the good deductions at the scene of the murder at the bowling alley, to see what she knows about him.<BR>		1) Masumi has a middle brother, but her oldest brother is in possession of a voice changer, in which case Masumi might not actually know that she is in contact with her oldest brother who is supposed to be dead, but think that she is in contact with her real middle brother. After witnessing how Conan uses a voice changer to become Shinichi in order to contact Ran in Yusaku Kudo's Cold Case, he may have begun using his voice changer to become his own middle brother to contact Masumi via phone. In this scenario he would have to pretend to have only the knowledge the real middle brother would have, such as not knowing who was making the great deductions at the crime scene of the bowling alley case. The oldest brother's voice changer would have to have the same range as Conan's voice-changing bow tie for this to be possible—whether the choker voice changer does have the same range has not been revealed.<BR>
	:1) Rebuttal: Since we now know that [[Shukichi Haneda\|Shukichi]] has a father with the name Akai and a mother with the name Sera, its unlikely that the first option is possible. Masumi's descriptions also fit him.<BR>		2) Masumi has a middle brother, but is actually in contact with her oldest brother. The reason she tells other people that she is in contact with the middle brother is because the oldest brother is supposed to be dead. <BR>
	~~2) Her~~ oldest brother is in possession of a voice changer, in which case Masumi might not actually know that she is in contact with her oldest brother who is supposed to be dead, but think that she is in contact with her real middle brother. After witnessing how Conan uses a voice changer to become Shinichi in order to contact Ran in Yusaku Kudo's Cold Case, he may have begun using his voice changer to become his own middle brother to contact Masumi via phone. In this scenario he would have to pretend to have only the knowledge the real middle brother would have, such as not knowing who was making the great deductions at the crime scene of the bowling alley case. The oldest brother's voice changer would have to have the same range as Conan's voice-changing bow tie for this to be possible—whether the choker voice changer does have the same range has not been revealed.<BR>		3) Masumi is in contact with ''both'' of her brothers, but tells outside observers that it is only her second brother.
