'''{{nihongo|Midori Megure|目暮 みどり|Megure Midori}}''' is a character in the manga and anime franchise ''[[Detective Conan]]''.
 
 
 
== Background ==
 
 
 
When Midori was about 18 years old, a serial hit-and-runner was stalking the streets, randomly targeting high school girls wearing long skirts, due to the harassment by a girl gang he had suffered under (the girls had been wearing long skirts as well, as a part of their rebellious looks). Midori was also a member of a girl gang, and her best friend ended up the first fatality, so since the culprit had not been caught after a while she decided to help apprehend the killer and volunteered to act as a decoy. There was an apparent shortage of police able to help her, and Midori was extremely stubborn and insisted to be alone; under orders of Commisioner Matsumoto, she was teamed up with [[Juzo Megure]], then still a junior police officer.
 
 
 
Unfortunately, the car runner surprised and hit them both. Megure tried to pull Midori out of danger, but they were still harmed; fortunately, Megure was able to remember the car's license number, and the perpetrator was soon arrested. Midori was gravely injured in the accident, but recovered with only a scar on her forehead to show for her ordeal, and some time afterwards she married Megure out of gratitude. In a strange switch of role, she is perhaps the only person who has managed to temper his impulsive surges, a role her husband feels a bit bashful about.<ref>Manga Chapter 286: An Unexpected Motive</ref>
 
 
 
Midori has also appeared, in an unseen role, as a witness to a crime and had to be taken to the station for questioning, as well as making a cameo appearance during the White Day Murder Case.<ref>Manga Chapter 725~727: White Day Murder Case</ref>
 
 
 
== Personality ==
 
In her youth, Midori was quite headstrong and vindictive, even wild in behavior. Megure's memories about the case where they met have her calling the police useless for not catching her friend's murderer, then cockily saying she's a good decoy, and then only admitting she chewed on more than she could swallow after being almost killed by the same culprit. It's hinted but not directly stated that Midori was a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sukeban sukeban] or girl delinquent in these times, hence why she was so determined to catch the man who killed her friend and other girls of the same subculture.
 
 
 
Since her near-death accident and her marriage to Megure, Midori has mellowed considerably and has evolved into a loving wife - perhaps this is the main reason why Megure keeps his head and the scar he shares with Midori always covered up, so no one will learn about her past. However, she still retains a younger girl's personality, as evidenced when she was upset enough to get drunk when she thought Megure didn't get her anything for White Day and how happy she was when she found her present.<ref>Manga Chapter 727: Happy White Day</ref>
