"Silver Bullet" is the name given to a mysterious drug created by Elena Miyano and Atsushi Miyano for the Black Organization.

Background

In a tape left for Shiho, Elena reveals she had been working on "a truly terrifying drug" the Miyano parents called the Silver Bullet. It was something incredible enough that Elena said they were "putting their hopes on it",[1] and Elena's lab mates had taken to calling it "a dream drug". It was important enough that Elena and Atsushi had to leave behind Shiho and Akemi in order to complete the drug.[1]

After thinking about this message left by Elena, Ai Haibara expresses her resentment that she had only later realized that the drug was something that should have never been made.[1]

Speculation

"Silver Bullet" and "APTX 4869" are two names for the same project

See also: APTX 4869

It is unclear whether Silver Bullet is the Miyano parents' personal nickname for what is currently called APTX 4869, or if it was a closely related project they developed in parallel. Whatever the case, Silver Bullet and APTX 4869 are probably closely linked if not the same in-development drug. Haibara took over her parents' research after they died, with the APTX project named specifically. In addition, Haibara had earlier referred to APTX 4869 as a dream-like drug.[2] During her recollection of the tapes, Haibara was holding and considering the antidote to APTX 4869. She then regrets that she didn't understand the drug was something that should have never been made, strongly implying she worked on the same drug as well. Lastly, Vermouth, who was in the Black Organization long enough to have heard the Miyanos use the name "Silver Bullet",[3] may have given Conan the same nickname in reference to his deaged state caused by the drug.
