I see some suggestions that Haibara would be too afraid to go to London or to investigate Subaru's case in Beika...She didn't cower when confronting Vermouth...but she willingly stepped up to her.  Haibara is not a coward. If London means a lot to her regarding her family/ the Syndicate, then she won't be 'too afraid' to investigate.

I'm becoming more confident that mystery woman could be Shiho Miyano, assuming that Haibara is based on Irene Adler (for speculations I made in an earlier thread). She passes the card with 'Scandal in Bohemia' and Conan instantly mentions Irene. I'm almost certain this is Aoyama's hint to us that Mystery woman represents Sherlock's Irene. But I could be wrong, maybe that woman is Hestia. Or maybe Aoyama based Yukiko or Vermouth on Adler, but it would be odd in my opinion because neither are similar to Irene in personality or appearance.  However Haibara is Irene's twin.

Putting that aside, I really like that arc. It's very refreshing.

Vermouth is another possible contender for DC's Irene Adler, so this might also hint at her.

Yes, and if it is indeed her, another BO related story! I miss it...

These three options have nothing to do with the poll's question. (the thread's question yes, but......the poll is crying out of not making sense now  :P)

Haibara in London makes as much sense as Haibara in Paris or Haibara in Jerusalem  ;)

If it doesn't make sense to you then you don't have to vote :) but so many replied with these three options so I added them.
And I didn't say Haibara in Paris or Haibara in Jerusalem. This is about London as Haibara's origin. Why this is so frustrating is just beyond me. It's okay really, it depends on your imagination.

Haibara in London makes most sense out of these three, because she's half-British (BTW: Does it say British or English?) but is neither Jewish nor French for all we know.

I know that. But I still don't find any logic that she would risk her life and try to leave the country. She's the one with the careful role, while Conan isn't.

She risked her life confronting Vermouth. If London holds info about her family or the syndicate then she wouldn't cower. What if she discovers research of the drug or a connection to the Boss in her family's belongings/ house?  Or maybe she longs for a sense of identity that she can only find in her home town? She's a human being after all.
And I changed the poll question to match the title, hope that makes more sense.

I forgot to add that the most prominent features of Shiho is her hair and eyes...which mystery woman spectacularly covers with a dark wig and glasses/ hat. Yukiko's disguises are usually much more outlandish. Same with Vermouth...they can disguise as men, so why just a wig and hat?
