4869

[x64_02]

They're Vodka and Gin.
Vodka and Gin.
One is quite husky, the other is thin.
To do their henchmen work,
Kill Sherry and the bank clerk.
They're Vodka, Vodka and Gin, Gin, Gin, Gin,
Gin, Gin, Gin, Gin, Gin.

I'd never thought of that, but it sounds quite logical! o,o
However, if that was the case, the B.O. could have suspected from the beginning that Sherry/Ai has been turned into a kid, couldn't it? After all, it is quite obvious that she's a genius, considering she developed the drug.

Now that you mention it, Vermouth didn't seem to have much trouble making the connection between Ai and Sherry ^^.  As I said before it seems only a very selected few of the org knows what the drugs do.  The rest only knows it as "poison that kills without a trace" (like Gin). 

like the idea, but it doesn't explain the rat (or was it a mouse) that shrunk during testing.  Unless, of course, the rat was secretly a genius.

I had a theory along those lines. What if the poison is put in the Rat's food. The rat knew it was there so did not eat. The BO was forced to inject the Rat and since the Rat was smart enough to not eat the poison, It passed the ' smart ' test.

I understand the connection between 4869 (shi ha ro ku) and sherlock (which has to be pronounced by a Japanese who can't speak English very well in order to sound like 4869), but can anyone explain why in Vol. 24, chapter 10, Ai says "According to the way you pronounce 4869 ... which sounds like 'good-for-nothing-detective'"?
(I have this tranlation from read.homeunix.com since those volumes were taken down from the DCTP server)

No idea how accurate the Case Closed manga is to the storyline, but in File 10 of Volume 24, Haibara says that 4869 can be pronounced "Shiyaroku" (spelling based on memory, it's 3 AM and I forgot where I put the book ^^) which is like Sherlock.
