They befriend a group of scuba divers... but tragedy falls over them when one of the girls, Kiwako, almost drowns. And for worse, it's ''not'' an accident, but the doing of one of her friends.
* [[spoiler: AntiVillain: Harumi regrets what she has done, ''very'' much. She also breaks down crying TearsOfRemorse when exposed.]]
* DistressedDamsel: Poor Kiwako
* KikukoInoue: Kiwako
* [[spoiler: MurderTheHypotenuse: Harumi was in love with her stepbrother Masahiko and lost it when he decided to marry Kiwako.]]

!!The Hatamoto Family (Gozo, Kitaro, Mariko, Jouji, Akie, Tetsuo, Ichiro and Natsue Hatamoto. Also, Takeshi Hatamoto nee Zaiki and Kenji Suzuki).
The people involved in a rather notorious case from the first season. After having lost their ferry, Conan and the Mouris are "picked up" by the rich Hatamoto clan and board into their yacht. However, they start witnessing the ''extremely'' dark family dynamics as well as the {{Jerk ass}} behavior from the leader, Gozo Hatamoto... who is bloodily murdered. And that's just the beginning!
* AbusiveParents: More exactly, abusive grandfather and father-in-law. Gozo was an HORRIBLE JerkAss to everyone except to Natsue, and his preferred victims were Kitaro and Ichiro.
* AkiraIshida: As Ichiro Hatamoto. [[spoiler: The killer of the week.]]
* AssholeVictim: Gozo. [[spoiler: Tatsuo.]]
* BigScrewedUpFamily: And holy shit, HOW.
* DaddysGirl: Natsue was a Grandpa's Girl. [[spoiler: Who becomes the UnexpectedSuccessor.]]
* GoldDigger: Akie's husband Tatsuo, who married her in hopes of inheriting money since she was one of the possible heirs. [[KickTheDog He even says so openly, and in front of Akie herself.]] [[spoiler: She wasn't: the wealth went to her little sister Natsue. Then again it didn't matter: he got killed off.]]
** Takeshi is accused by Gozo of being this, since [[spoiler: his parents had a company that was destroyed by Gozo Hatamoto's. Takeshi's case is more of BecomingTheMask: he ''did'' at first approach Natsue to see what kind of person she was and get back to the Hatamotos, but he came to truly like her as well.]]
* HeKnowsTooMuch: The reason why [[spoiler: Tatsuo]] died. [[spoiler: He saw Ichiro trying to drop the killing weapon in the sea and got a face full of metal pipe for his trouble.]]
* HenpeckedHusband: Mariko is an AlmightyMom, so Kitaro obviously is this. [[HappilyMarried They do care for each other]], though.
* TheJeeves: Suzuki
* KickTheDog: Gozo's psychological and emotional abuse of his son-in-law Kitaro and grandson Ichiro.
** PetTheDog: He cared for his youngest granddaughter Natsue, though.
** [[spoiler: TheDogBitesBack: Had Gozou not gone overboard in his mistreatment of Ichiro ''and'' mocked his love for Natsue...]]
* [[spoiler: KissingCousins]]: A huge plot point. [[spoiler: Kitaro and Mariko were both this ''and'' {{Victorious Childhood Friend}}s, but had to pretty much [[ParentalMarriageVeto beg Gozo to let them marry]]. And 25 years later, their son Ichiro fell in love with Natsue... and Gozo not only denied him the chance to ask her out, but cruelly mocked him.]]
* TheMaidenNameDebate: The husbands of Akie and Natsue, Tatsuo and Takeshi, married into the Hatamoto family and thus took up their surname.
* MyBelovedSmother: Mariko has traces of this.
* TheOjou: Akie and Natsue. Akie is the RichBitch type, Natsue is the YamatoNadeshiko one.
* OneeSama: Natsue, being a very polite YamatoNadeshiko-like {{Ojou}}, addresses Akie as this.

Another famous case from the first season. Every five years Kogoro Mouri reunites himself in a hot spring site with his best friends from college, the members of the judo club he used to belong to. This year, Ran and Conan manage to join in - and just in time, as former CuteSportsClubManager and current OfficeLady Yumi Horikoshi apparently finishes her own life via PrettyLittleHeadshots. But to Conan and Kogoro, this is ''not'' suicide.
* [[spoiler: ArrangedMarriage: Kazushi accepted an ''omiai'' (arranged date) with the daughter of his boss, they hit it off and were about to get married. Yumi was not happy ''at all''.]]
* BaldOfAwesome: Kazushi is fully bald, as well as a strong judo practitioner and a competent policeman. [[spoiler: Subverted when he's revealed to be the killer ''and'' when Kogoro captures him.]]
* [[spoiler: BlackMail - HoneyTrap]]: [[spoiler: What Yumi was doing to Kazushi, threatening to send some risque and old photos of themselves to his new girlfriend.]]
* ChristmasCake: Yumi, despite her beauty, was unmarried at age 34.
* [[spoiler: DiedStandingUp: Yumi was shot in the head when she was on her feet. There are analogies to Benkei's legendary death that Conan catches on and then relays to Kogoro in his own way.]]
* DrivenToSuicide: People think at first that Yumi killed herself. This isn't helped by how she ''did'' express the wish to finish herself off since she's been depressed and in danger of losing her job in the middle of the economic crisis.
* GeniusBruiser: Kazushi
* HelloNurse: Yumi, referred to as the Madonna of the group.
* HotSpringsEpisode: And ''very'' infamous for how Conan plays the role of AccidentalPervert at the beginning.
* HotTeacher: Yukio is pretty goodlooking and works as a schoolteacher.
* {{Meganekko}}: Noriko is in her late 30's and still looks ''very'' {{Moe}}.
* {{Nakama}}: Kogoro's. Which is why he's so incredibly ''pissed'' at Yumi's death. [[spoiler: Double when he realizes that not only she was killed, ''but that one of his friends is the murderer''. Cue ItsPersonal mode and then Kogoro's CrowningMomentOfAwesome.]]
* OfficeLady: Yumi
* SickeninglySweethearts: Yukio and Noriko, though this is understandable since they ''just'' got married and the trip might be doubling as their honeymoon.
* {{Tsundere}}: Yumi. [[spoiler: Rather darkly used in the end: she refused Kazushi's marriage proposals... until he decided to marry somebody else. WomanScorned mode = ON.]]

They stay at the same lodge alongside a snarky reporter named Atsushi Mori, who notes that the villa was the scenario to a murder some time ago. And then another teacher, Sugiyama, is killed...
* BreakTheCutie: This case was ''very'' hard on [[spoiler: poor Ran.]]

* LooksLikeCesare: Moori, and how.
* PsychologicalHorror: Invoked by the killer, who writes in lipstick some ''kana'' symbols that when put together, read: [[spoiler: "Minako".]] This [[spoiler: sends Shimoda into a VillainousBSOD, and lets Yonehara (the killer) identify him as Minako's other murderer.]]
* [[spoiler: S{{he knows too much}}: The reason for Minako's murder. She found out that Shimoda and Sugiyama were involved in a fraud, and in her HeroicBSOD state she confronted them...]]
* [[spoiler: WouldHurtAChild ''and'' WouldHitAGirl: Shimoda and Sugiyama strangled a 10-year-old girl to death, then made it look like she had hung herself.]]
* [[spoiler: WoundedGazelleGambit: Yonehara knocks Sonoko out via both drugging and strangling, then lays on the floor to make it look like she was attacked too. The body that Sonoko saw right before that? It was Sugiyama's corpse, his face covered by Yonehara's wig.]]

The people involved in a case that is infamous for the huge dose of HighOctaneNightmareFuel. Sonoko invites Ran and Conan to a mountain villa to meet up with her sister Ayako and her friends and enjoy the autumn in nice company. Things get weird when Ran and Conan see a man with bandages on his face, and then one of the members of the club is first kidnapped and later gruesomely killed. The fact that their past is far more troubled that it looks like [[spoiler: and involved the death of a girl named Atsuko]] doesn't help their case.
* AccidentalPervert: As Ran searches for her and Conan's room, she ends up walking on the guys when they were changing clothes. [[spoiler: Including Takahashi, who then targets her because she saw that he wasn't as pudgy as he looked... which would reveal how he hid Chikako's head under his clothes.]]
* AxCrazy: The culprit, whose WeaponOfChoice is an axe ''and'' not only uses it to [[spoiler: chop a girl's body into pieces]], but to [[spoiler: attack Ran ''and'' Conan with it.]]
* BridalCarry: ''Horribly'' used when the group sees the killer carry a kidnapped [[spoiler: Chikako]] away in his arms, right before [[spoiler: her]] body is found. [[spoiler: It was a stage trick with a doll, piano wire, and Chikako's decapitated head.]]
* [[spoiler: DriventoSuicide: Chikako stole Atsuko's best script and made it pass as hers, which made Atsuko cross the DespairEventHorizon and hang herself.]]
** [[spoiler: Takahashi also tries to commit suicide with a knife so he and Atsuko could be TogetherInDeath, but is thwarted.]]
* HandsomeLech: Ohta
* [[spoiler: LoveMakesYouEvil: Takahashi uses this to justify his ''brutal'' murder of Chikako, since he was deeply in love with poor Atsuko and wanted to punish Chikako for causing her suicide.]]
* MadnessMantra: [[spoiler: Atsuko]]'s "No one will believe me!", referring to [[spoiler: how she was the true author of the beautiful script that Chikako made pass as hers.]]

The first group featured in the popular double episode "The Cornered Famous detective! Two big murder cases". Motoyasu Tsukumo is a famous stage magician who appears dead in strange circumstances the day when his daughter Ayano turned six years old, so his widow Nanae goes to Kogoro to search for help since she suspects one of his three disciples is the murderer. This, however, brings Ran some memories... and evidence that Conan is Shinichi!
* AdultFear: The case's about to be deciphered... and then a bomb is dropped. [[spoiler: Little Ayano is missing! And Mako, the killer, is the one who took her away! In a subversion, Mako brings Ayano back unharmed, though she admits she was ''this'' close to killing her.]]
* CassandraTruth: [[spoiler: Young Mako actually witnessed how Tsukumo messed around with Yashiro's equipment and caused his death, but nobody believed her since she was a little girl back then.]]
* ChekhovsGun: A certain photo album that Ran finds in the Mouri office. [[spoiler: It has a photo of Tsukumo with kid!Ran and kid!Shinichi, and taking a good look at it makes Ran suspect about Conan's true identity--especially after comparing said picture to the long look she takes of a Conan without glasses.]]
** In-story example: [[spoiler: Tsukumo kept photos of all his disciples in his study - including Yashiro. Kazumi saw Mako hugging Yashiro's picture to her chest tenderly, so he suspected that she had a link to him. He never acted on it, though.]]

!!The Yabuchi family (Hiromi, Hidekazu, Yoshichika, Yoshifusa, Yoshiyuki, Keiko and Machiko Yabuchi. Also, Carlos and [[spoiler: Dickson Tanaka]])
The second group from "The Cornered Famous detective! Two big murder cases". Yukiko Kudo has suddenly come from the USA, and manages to get Conan to stay with her for the weekend. The next day she's summoned by her childhood friend Hiromi Yabuchi, whose father Yoshichika died recently; her uncle Yoshifusa has arrived from Brazil alongside his bodyguard Carlos, but she's sure something strange is going on and thus she asks Yukiko for help. Conan senses something fishy ''is'' going on, thus he must protect his mother ''and'' defuse whatever plan is brewing behind closed doors.
* BigFancyHouse: The Yabuchis live in a pretty big traditional Japanese complex.
* BigScrewedUpFamily: Hiromi and her husband Hidekazu are pretty good people, but her younger brother Yoshiyuki and his wife Keiko are huge {{Jerk Ass}}es. Let's not even talk about Machiko...
* [[spoiler: ButNotTooForeign: Carlos turns out to be the real Yoshifusa's son with a black Brazilian woman.]]
* [[spoiler: DeadPersonImpersonation: The man we know as Yoshifusa Yabuchi is actually Dickson Tanaka, a Brazilian man with Japanese blood, who is impersonating his dead friend Yoshifusa to protect said friend's son and heir... Carlos.]]
* GoldDigger: Implied in the case of Machiko.
* [[spoiler: KarmicDeath: Machiko wanted to kill her brother-in-law to get more of her husband's inheritance. Too bad she tried to stab said brother-in-law while in the bath... and he (or better said, his stand-in) killed her in self-defense.]]
* TheMaidenNameDebate: Hidekazu took up Hiromi's surname since she was the eldest daughter of the rich Yabuchi family.
* MayDecemberRomance: Yoshichika and Mariko, who is barely older than his adult kids.
* [[spoiler: PapaWolf ''and'' ParentalSubstitute: Dickson/Yoshifusa thinks Carlos is [[LikeASonToMe like a son to him]]. He will do everything in his power to make sure Carlos will be safe and won't be cheated out of his share of his uncle's inheritance.]]
* RedHerring: [[spoiler: Keiko, who set a small trap with a crossbow to scare off Dickson/Yoshifusa. She wasn't the killer, though.]]
* ScaryBlackMan: Carlos. [[spoiler: Subverted: [[FaceofAThug He only looks scary]] and is actually a NiceGuy GentleGiant, [[ShrinkingViolet more shy]] and [[AdultChild a little child-like]] than scary.]]
* SmugSnake: Machiko, Keiko and Yoshiyuki. Machiko is far worse, though.
* ThemeNaming: Three of the males in the Yabuchi family have names starting with ''Yoshi'': patriarch Yoshi''chika'', uncle Yoshi''fusa'', and son Yoshi''yuki''.
* [[spoiler: UnexpectedSuccessor]]: Everyone was shocked to know that [[spoiler: Carlos was taking the place of his dead father Yoshifusa among the inheritors. Yoshichika ''did'' know, but he didn't tell anyone -- except for signaling it in the tape that was his last will.]]
* UndyingLoyalty: [[spoiler: Dickson took up the Yoshifusa Yabuchi name out of loyalty for his deceased friend/business partner and his child Carlos.]]
* WouldHitAGirl: [[spoiler: Dickson would stab a girl, but only to defend himself when she attacks him with a knife.]]

Everything goes well until the party is over and Kogoro, Ran, Conan and several others have to stay in the village due to a mysterious problem... Reika then disappears, one of her suitors is found dead, and Ran is drugged up and almost drowned to death. What the ''Hell'' is going on?!
* AmbiguouslyBrown: Mifune has a much darker skin tone than the rest, but it's never brought up.
* [[spoiler: AndIMustScream: See the HighOctaneNightmareFuel page for a detailed description.]] *shudder*
* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler: Two of them.]]
* BoundAndGagged: [[spoiler: The reason why Reika couldn't escape from a...]]

* [[spoiler: LoveMakesyouEvil: Had Yaeko not been murdered by Nikaidou and Reika, Ichieda wouldn't have killed them.]]
* NiceGuy: Rokuda and Gojou
* NumericalThemeNaming: The characters here have numbers that goes from 1 to 7 [[spoiler:or 8]].
* OldRetainer: Yone, to the Yotsuis.
* RichBitch: Reika, and how. She's so selfish and cruel that [[spoiler: she and Nikaidou killed a girl (implied to be Reika's childhood friend in the past!), purely to save their own butts.]]
* UnwantedHarem: Ichieda, Nikaidou, Mifune, Rokuda and Gojou were this to Reika. [[spoiler: In a subversion, Ichieda actually loved ''Yaeko'', and only stayed close to Reika to find the moment to kill her and Nikaidou.]]
* YamatoNadeshiko: Yone [[spoiler: and Yaeko.]]

The people from the "Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case". A rich old man who's ill and not expected to live for long, Dousan Nagato, hires Kogoro to find his first love. [[spoiler: Which is a cover to investigate several odd things that have happened in his BigFancyHouse.]] All of a sudden, however, two persons are dead. What happened, what was the secret they both held, and will Conan find out the truth alongside Heiji, who's been called in too?
* TheAtoner: [[spoiler: What Hideomi truly was, encouraging and helping Miyuki since he and Mitsuaki killed her parents via causing the fire in which they died. Also that's where he got his scars from, having rescued little Miyuki from the same fire.]]
* BecauseDestinySaysSo: Miyuki says she believes that her and Hideomi are destined to be together, since they've been "tied via a destiny made of fire" for a long time.
* BigScrewedUpFamily: Not as big as others, but pretty fucked up. Yasue and Chairman Nagato were pretty nice persons, but Mitsuaki, Hideomi and Nobuko have... ''issues''.
* BrokenBird: Miyuki.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: The fact that [[spoiler: Mitsuaki wanted to kill his father-in-law to take full control of the Nagato enterprise]] places him squarely here.
* ChekhovsGunman: Conan sees a familiar man among the police, but doesn't recognize him. That man is Heizo Hattori, actually an old friend of Chairman Nagato... and Heiji shows up almost immediately afterwards.
* ChristmasCake: When Nobuko bitchslaps Miyuki, Nagato speculates it's because "she hasn't found a husband". Considering that Nobuko is 39 years old, ''way'' past the "limit"... yeah.
-->'''[[DeadpanSnarker Conan]]''': With ''that'' personality, it's not like she'll ever get married...
* DespairEventHorizon: [[spoiler: Poor, poor Miyuki.]]
* [[spoiler: DrivenToSuicide]]: [[spoiler: Hideomi. Miyuki found his lifeless body and then pretended to join Mitsuaki in his plan to kill Chairman Nagato, only to betray and kill Mitsuaki later.]]
* GoodScarsEvilScars: Hideomi has half his face burned off. [[spoiler: They turn out to be Good Scars... sorta.]]
* {{Hikikomori}}: Hideomi, after he got scarred, left school and holed himself up in his room to write his novels without needing to interact with anyone.
* [[spoiler: ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice:]] [[spoiler: Mitsuaki's death, when Miyuki stabs his hand with her pen and makes him fall from the balcony.]]
* LoveHurts: And holy goddamned shit, HOW. This case is a huge TearJerker.
* TheMaidenNameDebate: Mitsuaki, Yasue's husband, took up the family name.
* MalevolentMaskedMan: Hideomi is believed to be this, [[BandagedFace using bandages instead of a mask]] to cover his hideous scars. [[spoiler: He wasn't evil. And actually, the man in "mask" we saw... was a disguised Mitsuaki.]]
* NoheroToHisValet: Nobuko treats Miyuki quite badly, believing her to be a GoldDigger who takes advantage of Hideomi's isolation to get close to the family. [[spoiler: It's far more complicated.]]
* SexySecretary: Miyuki.
* SmugSnake: [[spoiler: Mitsuaki]]
* SpoiledSweet: Yasue is remarkably sweet and kind, and gets along well with Miyuki. [[spoiler: Pity her husband Mitsuaki is, well, a SmugSnake...]]
* TragicKeepsake: Miyuki's burned fountain pen, which belonged to her deceased father.
** [[spoiler: ChekhovsGun: Miyuki uses it to stab Mitsuaki's hand when she tries to throw him off the balcony and he holds on to her. Then he falls off to his death.]]
*** Furthermore... [[spoiler: the pen didn't belong to Miyuki's dad, but to her mother. Nagato gave it to her when they were kids, and it's the proof that the girl he loved in the past was Miyuki's mom.]]
* [[spoiler: TogetherInDeath: Miyuki tries invoking this when she attempts to commit suicide to be with Hideomi. It fails since she wanted to [[KillItWithFire burn herself to death with a gasoline thermos and her lighter]], but Conan and Heiji had switched the fuel with water.]]
* UnluckyChildhoodFriend: Chairman Nagato was this as a kid, to the lady that he wants Kogoro to find for him. [[spoiler: That woman was actually Miyuki's MissingMom.]]

Raita is one of Kogoro's high school friends and Hatsune is his fiancee. The night before their wedding, however, Hatsune is burned to death in her car and it soon comes out that ''both'' of them were having the other investigated on suspicion of infidelity. Hatsune wanted to see if he'd flirt with other women and Raita hired a detective after becoming suspicious of her interactions with Tooru Amuro, who turns out to be the detective she'd hired to investigate him. Could Raita's jealousy have gone too far?
* AlwaysMurder: [[spoiler:Averted for the first time since volume 1.]]
* [[spoiler:BrotherSisterIncest: Not that they knew it.]]

[[folder:The attendants of the Night Baron Tour]]
!!The attendants of the Night Baron Tour (Hideko Kamijou, Tokio Ebara, Satoru Maeda, Genichirou Kaneshiro, Shizune Hayashi, Shiro Konnou, Akiko Sayama)
Via Dr. Agasa, Conan finds out that there's a tour to a famous hotel featuring his father's iconic character, the Night Baron, as a main theme. Agasa was supposed to go but his companion and his granddaughter had to relinquish their spots, so Conan and the Mouris go in their place. It's a good thing, though, since it turns out that one of the attendants is a massive JerkAss named Tokio Ebara... and he's gruesomely killed while wearing a Night Baron outfit!
* BobHaircut: Sayama and Ebara. [[spoiler: A ChekhovsGun, since Sayama doesn't need a wig to disguise herself as the Night Baron... and Maeda finds the wig...]]
* BlowYouAway: The ''Himekaze'' aka the "Wind of the Princess", which blows in that particular time of the year. [[spoiler: And is the reason why Ebara landed on the statue, when he wasn't supposed to. Wasn't helped by him wearing a cape in that moment.]]
* BrokenBird: [[spoiler: Sayama, in the end.]]
* [[spoiler: BrokenPedestal: Ran was ''very'' depressed when Maeda's TakingTheHeat act makes her believe that he's the killer.]]

* [[spoiler: DeadLittleSister: In Sayama's case, a deceased older brother whom Ebara got DrivenToSuicide.]]

** [[spoiler: This was also how Sayama (the one who threw Conan off, but only to scare him away) killed Ebara. Though the thing with him being ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice was a coincidence.]]
* DirtyOldMan: Subverted: Ebara is VERY dirty minded, but is also YoungerThanTheyLook. Seriously, he's only in his 30's!
* [[spoiler: ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: Ebara's lifeless body was found impaled on a statue. [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel Aaaaaugh!]].]]
* LoveMartyr: [[spoiler: Maeda, as bitterly lampshaded by Hayama herself.]]
* LooksLikeCesare: Konnou the banker, a very tall and pale man with dark hair and StoicSpectacles.
* [[spoiler: HoneyTrap]]: [[spoiler: Sayama used ''herself'' as such, to trap Ebara and then kill him. She invited him to her and Maeda's room, spiked his drink, dressed him up as the Night Baron ''and threw him off the balcony''.]]
* MacGuffin: There's a diskette to be won by the people in the tour, containing a ''nasty'' computer virus that is called the Night Baron. [[spoiler: Its creator was Sayama's brother, but Ebara stole it and ruined his career, which drove him to kill himself. Ebara tried to sell it to his ex-wifde, Kamijou, but she saw right through him and stopped its distribution.]]
* [[spoiler: ObfuscatingStupidity: Old man Kaneshiro was ''not'' blind.]]
* ShowHayami: As Konnou. [[spoiler: He's... NOT the killer! Surprise!]]
* [[spoiler: TakingTheHeat: Maeda was willing to divert attention to himself and be send to jail, rather than letting Sayama be punished.]]

They befriend a group of scuba divers... but tragedy falls over them when one of the girls, Kiwako, almost drowns. And for worse, it's ''not'' an accident, but the doing of one of her friends.
* [[spoiler: AntiVillain: Harumi regrets what she has done, ''very'' much. She also breaks down crying TearsOfRemorse when exposed.]]
* DistressedDamsel: Poor Kiwako
* KikukoInoue: Kiwako

* SuperDrowningSkills: Masahiko really can't swim.
* {{Victorious Childhood Friend}}s: Masahiko and Kiwako.
* WoundedGazelleGambit: ''Horribly'' played with. [[spoiler: Knowing that Masahiko can't swim, Kiwako pretended to drown while trying to prove how much he loved her, recruiting Harumi for the prank without knowing her feelings. Harumi, already upset since Kiwako was marrying the guy she liked, lost it and tried poisoning Kiwako with a snake she caught.]]
* YamatoNadeshiko: ... Well, Kiwako ''is'' voiced by KikukoInoue. She ''does'' show a cattier side in the beginning, but [[spoiler: her decision to forgive Harumi ''and'' not tell Masahiko about her secret love for him]] is very much YN behavior.
** Not only that: [[spoiler: she let everyone except Conan, Eri, Kogoro and Ran believe that it was an accident. Thanks to her, Harumi averted going to jail for trying to kill her.]] It takes a very, ''very'' forgiving and kind person to do such things.

* AyaHisakawa: Masayo
* [[spoiler: CainAndAbel: With Mina as the Abel and Masayo as the Cain.]]
* [[spoiler: ChekhovsGun: Masayo's "Yoko" headband. The accent over the first "o"? It's covered by a bit of Mina's blood.]]

!!The Hatamoto Family (Gozo, Kitaro, Mariko, Jouji, Akie, Tetsuo, Ichiro and Natsue Hatamoto. Also, Takeshi Hatamoto nee Zaiki and Kenji Suzuki).
The people involved in a rather notorious case from the first season. After having lost their ferry, Conan and the Mouris are "picked up" by the rich Hatamoto clan and board into their yacht. However, they start witnessing the ''extremely'' dark family dynamics as well as the {{Jerk ass}} behavior from the leader, Gozo Hatamoto... who is bloodily murdered. And that's just the beginning!
* AbusiveParents: More exactly, abusive grandfather and father-in-law. Gozo was an HORRIBLE JerkAss to everyone except to Natsue, and his preferred victims were Kitaro and Ichiro.
* AkiraIshida: As Ichiro Hatamoto. [[spoiler: The killer of the week.]]
* AssholeVictim: Gozo. [[spoiler: Tatsuo.]]
* BigScrewedUpFamily: And holy shit, HOW.
* DaddysGirl: Natsue was a Grandpa's Girl. [[spoiler: Who becomes the UnexpectedSuccessor.]]
* GoldDigger: Akie's husband Tatsuo, who married her in hopes of inheriting money since she was one of the possible heirs. [[KickTheDog He even says so openly, and in front of Akie herself.]] [[spoiler: She wasn't: the wealth went to her little sister Natsue. Then again it didn't matter: he got killed off.]]
** Takeshi is accused by Gozo of being this, since [[spoiler: his parents had a company that was destroyed by Gozo Hatamoto's. Takeshi's case is more of BecomingTheMask: he ''did'' at first approach Natsue to see what kind of person she was and get back to the Hatamotos, but he came to truly like her as well.]]
* HeKnowsTooMuch: The reason why [[spoiler: Tatsuo]] died. [[spoiler: He saw Ichiro trying to drop the killing weapon in the sea and got a face full of metal pipe for his trouble.]]
* HenpeckedHusband: Mariko is an AlmightyMom, so Kitaro obviously is this. [[HappilyMarried They do care for each other]], though.
* TheJeeves: Suzuki
* KickTheDog: Gozo's psychological and emotional abuse of his son-in-law Kitaro and grandson Ichiro.
** PetTheDog: He cared for his youngest granddaughter Natsue, though.
** [[spoiler: TheDogBitesBack: Had Gozou not gone overboard in his mistreatment of Ichiro ''and'' mocked his love for Natsue...]]
* [[spoiler: KissingCousins]]: A huge plot point. [[spoiler: Kitaro and Mariko were both this ''and'' {{Victorious Childhood Friend}}s, but had to pretty much [[ParentalMarriageVeto beg Gozo to let them marry]]. And 25 years later, their son Ichiro fell in love with Natsue... and Gozo not only denied him the chance to ask her out, but cruelly mocked him.]]
* TheMaidenNameDebate: The husbands of Akie and Natsue, Tatsuo and Takeshi, married into the Hatamoto family and thus took up their surname.
* MyBelovedSmother: Mariko has traces of this.
* TheOjou: Akie and Natsue. Akie is the RichBitch type, Natsue is the YamatoNadeshiko one.
* OneeSama: Natsue, being a very polite YamatoNadeshiko-like {{Ojou}}, addresses Akie as this.
* RedHerring: [[spoiler: Takeshi.]]
* RichBitch: Both Akie and Tatsuo.
* ShigeruNakahara: As Takeshi Zaiki/Hatamoto. [[spoiler: The RedHerring.]]
* SupremeChef: Jouji, who works as a popular French chef and shows off his collection of rare professional knives. [[spoiler: Ichiro gets to give a... good use to two of them. ]]

Another famous case from the first season. Every five years Kogoro Mouri reunites himself in a hot spring site with his best friends from college, the members of the judo club he used to belong to. This year, Ran and Conan manage to join in - and just in time, as former CuteSportsClubManager and current OfficeLady Yumi Horikoshi apparently finishes her own life via PrettyLittleHeadshots. But to Conan and Kogoro, this is ''not'' suicide.
* [[spoiler: ArrangedMarriage: Kazushi accepted an ''omiai'' (arranged date) with the daughter of his boss, they hit it off and were about to get married. Yumi was not happy ''at all''.]]
* BaldOfAwesome: Kazushi is fully bald, as well as a strong judo practitioner and a competent policeman. [[spoiler: Subverted when he's revealed to be the killer ''and'' when Kogoro captures him.]]
* [[spoiler: BlackMail - HoneyTrap]]: [[spoiler: What Yumi was doing to Kazushi, threatening to send some risque and old photos of themselves to his new girlfriend.]]
* ChristmasCake: Yumi, despite her beauty, was unmarried at age 34.
* [[spoiler: DiedStandingUp: Yumi was shot in the head when she was on her feet. There are analogies to Benkei's legendary death that Conan catches on and then relays to Kogoro in his own way.]]
* DrivenToSuicide: People think at first that Yumi killed herself. This isn't helped by how she ''did'' express the wish to finish herself off since she's been depressed and in danger of losing her job in the middle of the economic crisis.
* GeniusBruiser: Kazushi
* HelloNurse: Yumi, referred to as the Madonna of the group.
* HotSpringsEpisode: And ''very'' infamous for how Conan plays the role of AccidentalPervert at the beginning.
* HotTeacher: Yukio is pretty goodlooking and works as a schoolteacher.
* {{Meganekko}}: Noriko is in her late 30's and still looks ''very'' {{Moe}}.
* {{Nakama}}: Kogoro's. Which is why he's so incredibly ''pissed'' at Yumi's death. [[spoiler: Double when he realizes that not only she was killed, ''but that one of his friends is the murderer''. Cue ItsPersonal mode and then Kogoro's CrowningMomentOfAwesome.]]
* OfficeLady: Yumi
* SickeninglySweethearts: Yukio and Noriko, though this is understandable since they ''just'' got married and the trip might be doubling as their honeymoon.
* {{Tsundere}}: Yumi. [[spoiler: Rather darkly used in the end: she refused Kazushi's marriage proposals... until he decided to marry somebody else. WomanScorned mode = ON.]]

They stay at the same lodge alongside a snarky reporter named Atsushi Mori, who notes that the villa was the scenario to a murder some time ago. And then another teacher, Sugiyama, is killed...

* LooksLikeCesare: Moori, and how.
* PsychologicalHorror: Invoked by the killer, who writes in lipstick some ''kana'' symbols that when put together, read: [[spoiler: "Minako".]] This [[spoiler: sends Shimoda into a VillainousBSOD, and lets Yonehara (the killer) identify him as Minako's other murderer.]]

* [[spoiler: WouldHurtAChild ''and'' WouldHitAGirl: Shimoda and Sugiyama strangled a 10-year-old girl to death, then made it look like she had hung herself.]]
* [[spoiler: WoundedGazelleGambit: Yonehara knocks Sonoko out via both drugging and strangling, then lays on the floor to make it look like she was attacked too. The body that Sonoko saw right before that? It was Sugiyama's corpse, his face covered by Yonehara's wig.]]

The people involved in a case that is infamous for the huge dose of HighOctaneNightmareFuel. Sonoko invites Ran and Conan to a mountain villa to meet up with her sister Ayako and her friends and enjoy the autumn in nice company. Things get weird when Ran and Conan see a man with bandages on his face, and then one of the members of the club is first kidnapped and later gruesomely killed. The fact that their past is far more troubled that it looks like [[spoiler: and involved the death of a girl named Atsuko]] doesn't help their case.
* AccidentalPervert: As Ran searches for her and Conan's room, she ends up walking on the guys when they were changing clothes. [[spoiler: Including Takahashi, who then targets her because she saw that he wasn't as pudgy as he looked... which would reveal how he hid Chikako's head under his clothes.]]
* AxCrazy: The culprit, whose WeaponOfChoice is an axe ''and'' not only uses it to [[spoiler: chop a girl's body into pieces]], but to [[spoiler: attack Ran ''and'' Conan with it.]]
* BridalCarry: ''Horribly'' used when the group sees the killer carry a kidnapped [[spoiler: Chikako]] away in his arms, right before [[spoiler: her]] body is found. [[spoiler: It was a stage trick with a doll, piano wire, and Chikako's decapitated head.]]
* [[spoiler: DriventoSuicide: Chikako stole Atsuko's best script and made it pass as hers, which made Atsuko cross the DespairEventHorizon and hang herself.]]
** [[spoiler: Takahashi also tries to commit suicide with a knife so he and Atsuko could be TogetherInDeath, but is thwarted.]]
* HandsomeLech: Ohta
* [[spoiler: LoveMakesYouEvil: Takahashi uses this to justify his ''brutal'' murder of Chikako, since he was deeply in love with poor Atsuko and wanted to punish Chikako for causing her suicide.]]
* MadnessMantra: [[spoiler: Atsuko]]'s "No one will believe me!", referring to [[spoiler: how she was the true author of the beautiful script that Chikako made pass as hers.]]
* [[spoiler: OffwithHisHead: Chikako's death. Takahashi then takes it UpToEleven by mutilating her body and dismembering her.]]
* SmokingIsCool: Ohta

The first group featured in the popular double episode "The Cornered Famous detective! Two big murder cases". Motoyasu Tsukumo is a famous stage magician who appears dead in strange circumstances the day when his daughter Ayano turned six years old, so his widow Nanae goes to Kogoro to search for help since she suspects one of his three disciples is the murderer. This, however, brings Ran some memories... and evidence that Conan is Shinichi!
* AdultFear: The case's about to be deciphered... and then a bomb is dropped. [[spoiler: Little Ayano is missing! And Mako, the killer, is the one who took her away! In a subversion, Mako brings Ayano back unharmed, though she admits she was ''this'' close to killing her.]]
* CassandraTruth: [[spoiler: Young Mako actually witnessed how Tsukumo messed around with Yashiro's equipment and caused his death, but nobody believed her since she was a little girl back then.]]
* ChekhovsGun: A certain photo album that Ran finds in the Mouri office. [[spoiler: It has a photo of Tsukumo with kid!Ran and kid!Shinichi, and taking a good look at it makes Ran suspect about Conan's true identity--especially after comparing said picture to the long look she takes of a Conan without glasses.]]
** In-story example: [[spoiler: Tsukumo kept photos of all his disciples in his study - including Yashiro. Kazumi saw Mako hugging Yashiro's picture to her chest tenderly, so he suspected that she had a link to him. He never acted on it, though.]]
* DrivenByEnvy: [[spoiler: Why Tsukumo killed Yashiro.]]
* DrowningPit: [[spoiler: Yashiro died while performing a trick inside a water tank that went horribly wrong... due to Tsukumo tampering with it.]]
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Ayano doesn't know that her dad's dead.

!!The Yabuchi family (Hiromi, Hidekazu, Yoshichika, Yoshifusa, Yoshiyuki, Keiko and Machiko Yabuchi. Also, Carlos and [[spoiler: Dickson Tanaka]])
The second group from "The Cornered Famous detective! Two big murder cases". Yukiko Kudo has suddenly come from the USA, and manages to get Conan to stay with her for the weekend. The next day she's summoned by her childhood friend Hiromi Yabuchi, whose father Yoshichika died recently; her uncle Yoshifusa has arrived from Brazil alongside his bodyguard Carlos, but she's sure something strange is going on and thus she asks Yukiko for help. Conan senses something fishy ''is'' going on, thus he must protect his mother ''and'' defuse whatever plan is brewing behind closed doors.
* BigFancyHouse: The Yabuchis live in a pretty big traditional Japanese complex.
* BigScrewedUpFamily: Hiromi and her husband Hidekazu are pretty good people, but her younger brother Yoshiyuki and his wife Keiko are huge {{Jerk Ass}}es. Let's not even talk about Machiko...
* [[spoiler: ButNotTooForeign: Carlos turns out to be the real Yoshifusa's son with a black Brazilian woman.]]
* [[spoiler: DeadPersonImpersonation: The man we know as Yoshifusa Yabuchi is actually Dickson Tanaka, a Brazilian man with Japanese blood, who is impersonating his dead friend Yoshifusa to protect said friend's son and heir... Carlos.]]
* GoldDigger: Implied in the case of Machiko.
* [[spoiler: KarmicDeath: Machiko wanted to kill her brother-in-law to get more of her husband's inheritance. Too bad she tried to stab said brother-in-law while in the bath... and he (or better said, his stand-in) killed her in self-defense.]]
* TheMaidenNameDebate: Hidekazu took up Hiromi's surname since she was the eldest daughter of the rich Yabuchi family.
* MayDecemberRomance: Yoshichika and Mariko, who is barely older than his adult kids.
* [[spoiler: PapaWolf ''and'' ParentalSubstitute: Dickson/Yoshifusa thinks Carlos is [[LikeASonToMe like a son to him]]. He will do everything in his power to make sure Carlos will be safe and won't be cheated out of his share of his uncle's inheritance.]]
* RedHerring: [[spoiler: Keiko, who set a small trap with a crossbow to scare off Dickson/Yoshifusa. She wasn't the killer, though.]]
* ScaryBlackMan: Carlos. [[spoiler: Subverted: [[FaceofAThug He only looks scary]] and is actually a NiceGuy GentleGiant, [[ShrinkingViolet more shy]] and [[AdultChild a little child-like]] than scary.]]
* SmugSnake: Machiko, Keiko and Yoshiyuki. Machiko is far worse, though.
* ThemeNaming: Three of the males in the Yabuchi family have names starting with ''Yoshi'': patriarch Yoshi''chika'', uncle Yoshi''fusa'', and son Yoshi''yuki''.
* [[spoiler: UnexpectedSuccessor]]: Everyone was shocked to know that [[spoiler: Carlos was taking the place of his dead father Yoshifusa among the inheritors. Yoshichika ''did'' know, but he didn't tell anyone -- except for signaling it in the tape that was his last will.]]
* UndyingLoyalty: [[spoiler: Dickson took up the Yoshifusa Yabuchi name out of loyalty for his deceased friend/business partner and his child Carlos.]]
* WouldHitAGirl: [[spoiler: Dickson would stab a girl, but only to defend himself when she attacks him with a knife.]]

Everything goes well until the party is over and Kogoro, Ran, Conan and several others have to stay in the village due to a mysterious problem... Reika then disappears, one of her suitors is found dead, and Ran is drugged up and almost drowned to death. What the ''Hell'' is going on?!
* AmbiguouslyBrown: Mifune has a much darker skin tone than the rest, but it's never brought up.
* [[spoiler: AndIMustScream: See the HighOctaneNightmareFuel page for a detailed description.]] *shudder*
* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler: Two of them.]]
* BoundAndGagged: [[spoiler: The reason why Reika couldn't escape from a...]]

[[folder:The Nagato family and entourage]]
!!The Nagato family and entourage (Dousan, Nobuko, Yasue, Hideomi, and Mitsuaki Nagato; Kuranosuke Take, Miyuki Hyuuga)
The people from the "Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case". A rich old man who's ill and not expected to live for long, Dousan Nagato, hires Kogoro to find his first love. [[spoiler: Which is a cover to investigate several odd things that have happened in his BigFancyHouse.]] All of a sudden, however, two persons are dead. What happened, what was the secret they both held, and will Conan find out the truth alongside Heiji, who's been called in too?
* TheAtoner: [[spoiler: What Hideomi truly was, encouraging and helping Miyuki since he and Mitsuaki killed her parents via causing the fire in which they died. Also that's where he got his scars from, having rescued little Miyuki from the same fire.]]
* BecauseDestinySaysSo: Miyuki says she believes that her and Hideomi are destined to be together, since they've been "tied via a destiny made of fire" for a long time.
* BigScrewedUpFamily: Not as big as others, but pretty fucked up. Yasue and Chairman Nagato were pretty nice persons, but Mitsuaki, Hideomi and Nobuko have... ''issues''.
* BrokenBird: Miyuki.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: The fact that [[spoiler: Mitsuaki wanted to kill his father-in-law to take full control of the Nagato enterprise]] places him squarely here.
* ChekhovsGunman: Conan sees a familiar man among the police, but doesn't recognize him. That man is Heizo Hattori, actually an old friend of Chairman Nagato... and Heiji shows up almost immediately afterwards.
* ChristmasCake: When Nobuko bitchslaps Miyuki, Nagato speculates it's because "she hasn't found a husband". Considering that Nobuko is 39 years old, ''way'' past the "limit"... yeah.
-->'''[[DeadpanSnarker Conan]]''': With ''that'' personality, it's not like she'll ever get married...
* DespairEventHorizon: [[spoiler: Poor, poor Miyuki.]]
* [[spoiler: DrivenToSuicide]]: [[spoiler: Hideomi. Miyuki found his lifeless body and then pretended to join Mitsuaki in his plan to kill Chairman Nagato, only to betray and kill Mitsuaki later.]]
* GoodScarsEvilScars: Hideomi has half his face burned off. [[spoiler: They turn out to be Good Scars... sorta.]]
* {{Hikikomori}}: Hideomi, after he got scarred, left school and holed himself up in his room to write his novels without needing to interact with anyone.
* [[spoiler: ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice:]] [[spoiler: Mitsuaki's death, when Miyuki stabs his hand with her pen and makes him fall from the balcony.]]
* LoveHurts: And holy goddamned shit, HOW. This case is a huge TearJerker.
* TheMaidenNameDebate: Mitsuaki, Yasue's husband, took up the family name.
* MalevolentMaskedMan: Hideomi is believed to be this, [[BandagedFace using bandages instead of a mask]] to cover his hideous scars. [[spoiler: He wasn't evil. And actually, the man in "mask" we saw... was a disguised Mitsuaki.]]
* NoheroToHisValet: Nobuko treats Miyuki quite badly, believing her to be a GoldDigger who takes advantage of Hideomi's isolation to get close to the family. [[spoiler: It's far more complicated.]]
* SexySecretary: Miyuki.
* SmugSnake: [[spoiler: Mitsuaki]]
* SpoiledSweet: Yasue is remarkably sweet and kind, and gets along well with Miyuki. [[spoiler: Pity her husband Mitsuaki is, well, a SmugSnake...]]
* TragicKeepsake: Miyuki's burned fountain pen, which belonged to her deceased father.
** [[spoiler: ChekhovsGun: Miyuki uses it to stab Mitsuaki's hand when she tries to throw him off the balcony and he holds on to her. Then he falls off to his death.]]
*** Furthermore... [[spoiler: the pen didn't belong to Miyuki's dad, but to her mother. Nagato gave it to her when they were kids, and it's the proof that the girl he loved in the past was Miyuki's mom.]]
* [[spoiler: TogetherInDeath: Miyuki tries invoking this when she attempts to commit suicide to be with Hideomi. It fails since she wanted to [[KillItWithFire burn herself to death with a gasoline thermos and her lighter]], but Conan and Heiji had switched the fuel with water.]]
* UnluckyChildhoodFriend: Chairman Nagato was this as a kid, to the lady that he wants Kogoro to find for him. [[spoiler: That woman was actually Miyuki's MissingMom.]]

[[folder:Raita Banba and Hatsune Kamon]]
!!Raita Banba and Hatsune Kamon
Raita is one of Kogoro's high school friends and Hatsune is his fiancee. The night before their wedding, however, Hatsune is burned to death in her car and it soon comes out that ''both'' of them were having the other investigated on suspicion of infidelity. Hatsune wanted to see if he'd flirt with other women and Raita hired a detective after becoming suspicious of her interactions with Tooru Amuro, who turns out to be the detective she'd hired to investigate him. Could Raita's jealousy have gone too far?
* AlwaysMurder: [[spoiler:Averted for the first time since volume 1.]]
* [[spoiler:BrotherSisterIncest: Not that they knew it.]]
** [[spoiler:{{Twincest}}]]
* [[spoiler:DrivenToSuicide: What actually happened to Hatsune.]]

* HappilyAdopted: Both of them. In fact, they were orphaned in the same fire.
* {{Jerkass}}: Raita is this at his worst. It's mostly when he's drunk, though.

Via Dr. Agasa, Conan finds out that there's a tour to a famous hotel featuring his father's iconic character, the Night Baron, as a main theme. Agasa was supposed to go but his companion and his granddaughter had to relinquish their spots, so Conan and the Mouris go in their place. It's a good thing, though, since it turns out that one of the attendants is a massive JerkAss named Tokio Ebara... and he's gruesomely killed while wearing a Night Baron outfit!
* BobHaircut: Sayama and Ebara. [[spoiler: A ChekhovsGun, since Sayama doesn't need a wig to disguise herself as the Night Baron... and Maeda finds the wig...]]
* BlowYouAway: The ''Himekaze'' aka the "Wind of the Princess", which blows in that particular time of the year. [[spoiler: And is the reason why Ebara landed on the statue, when he wasn't supposed to. Wasn't helped by him wearing a cape in that moment.]]
* BrokenBird: [[spoiler: Sayama, in the end.]]
* [[spoiler: BrokenPedestal: Ran was ''very'' depressed when Maeda's TakingTheHeat act makes her believe that he's the killer.]]
* ChiekoHonda: As Akiko Sayama [[spoiler: aka the SympatheticMurderer]].
* [[spoiler: DeadLittleSister: In Sayama's case, a deceased older brother whom Ebara got DrivenToSuicide.]]
* DestinationDefenestration: Conan is found snooping around by the killer and then gets thrown off a balcony. He survives, since [[SoftWater he landed on the pool]]
** [[spoiler: This was also how Sayama (the one who threw Conan off, but only to scare him away) killed Ebara. Though the thing with him being ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice was a coincidence.]]
* DirtyOldMan: Subverted: Ebara is VERY dirty minded, but is also YoungerThanTheyLook. Seriously, he's only in his 30's!
* [[spoiler: ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: Ebara's lifeless body was found impaled on a statue. [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel Aaaaaugh!]].]]
* LoveMartyr: [[spoiler: Maeda, as bitterly lampshaded by Hayama herself.]]
* LooksLikeCesare: Konnou the banker, a very tall and pale man with dark hair and StoicSpectacles.
* [[spoiler: HoneyTrap]]: [[spoiler: Sayama used ''herself'' as such, to trap Ebara and then kill him. She invited him to her and Maeda's room, spiked his drink, dressed him up as the Night Baron ''and threw him off the balcony''.]]
* MacGuffin: There's a diskette to be won by the people in the tour, containing a ''nasty'' computer virus that is called the Night Baron. [[spoiler: Its creator was Sayama's brother, but Ebara stole it and ruined his career, which drove him to kill himself. Ebara tried to sell it to his ex-wifde, Kamijou, but she saw right through him and stopped its distribution.]]
* [[spoiler: ObfuscatingStupidity: Old man Kaneshiro was ''not'' blind.]]
* ShowHayami: As Konnou. [[spoiler: He's... NOT the killer! Surprise!]]
* [[spoiler: TakingTheHeat: Maeda was willing to divert attention to himself and be send to jail, rather than letting Sayama be punished.]]
* TallDarkAndBishoujo: Sayama and Kamijou
