"Gather Detectives" Case Theory

Post by unclesporkums »

Hey everybody, In the case where all the detectives are gathered by Kaito Kid in Vol. 30, when Kid tells the story about the late Karasuma Renya and the auction for his prized collection, does anyone think that the two strangers who
Spoiler:
gave the guests marijuana which made them go mad and kill each other then stole everything
 might have been Gin and Vodka? Or do you think it was just two unknown criminals?

That case was 40 years ago, so unless they are APTX users or pretty old I don't think it should be them. ^^

Okay, thanks! It's been so long since I've read that file that file I forgot about that fact. Still, you never know...  :D

I always thought it might be connected to the BO somehow. An absolutely enormous amount of money, mysterious death, crow logos everywhere and the traceless nature of the massacre...

But that's just me :P I'm sure they're not capable for ALL of the mysterious evil crap in the world.

Evil crap involving crow symbols is probably not something that should be lumped in with just any old evil crap, though. Not after learning about Nanatsu no Ko, on top of Akemi's dying words comparing them with crows. I would rather think it's at least an intentionally placed red herring.

I had kind of a happy fit about seeing Hakuba. He's not one of my favourite characters, but I hoped it was a sign that MK was getting a little more mixed up with DC. Sadly, no ~ :(

it could have been the work of the BO but not necessarily Gin and Vodka... :/ since the BO began about 50 years ago.

Ai suggested that the BO existed 50 years ago, but they could well have been operating long before that.

the whole premise was more hilarious to me, I mean unless it was laced with PCP or something there's no way that would happen.

I wonder if it's really an obscure reference to something.

I was thinkin reefer madness also, but sadly I doubt that conan would have such a subtle reference as that.
