Kogoro's knowledge about the situation

[Kogorou]

He likes to get the respect for Conans work and he got Famous due to his sudden sleep-attacks. So why complain? You just sleep sometimes and get all the pretty girls... eh.. the respect for beeing a great Detective.

I'm not sure when it was exactly, but I'm guessing around the White Day case is when Kogorou's suspicion has reached its height and sustained itself until now.

Why do I say that?

Out of curiosity I revisited some of the latest cases that had Kogorou in them to check out something. What I was checking was his abuse on Conan during that time.

It may have been earlier since I haven't had the full time to check things over and I may just be delusional, but I don't think he's hit Conan in anyway for quite some time. Now, this obviously could be nothing as its so small a detail, but remember: Gosho loves using these sort of things later.

Just food for thought~ :3

Yeah. he's a little bit blinded by the fame but still notices the pin prick moment at times. usually he wakes up when everyone is applauding him so he doesn't really care.

One day something is going to happen and he will definitely question the whole passing out bit.

how come that an anime watcher pointed out this question? ... for me it seemed that especially in the anime conan has a hard time investigating the crime scene especially when Ran or Kogoro are with him... he either gets beaten by K or hugged by Ran ... in almost every case... to the point i get mostly anoyed by both of them...  and i watched the last 150 episodes (ca 450 - 609) in the last two weeks... and i never had the slightest impression that Kogoro has any idea that Conan is using him... he seems to be suspicious about the falling to sleep after a prick in the neck or his face part as hinted in white day case and at times when conan uses his voice while kogoro still is awake... but i would say this is the furthest kogoro thinks about it. especially because in the end he is the one who gets the fame, the girls and the money and so he really doesn't care how the cases are solved as long as they are solved... there are many thought-bubbles in which he seem to have no idea what is going on... this could be a trick by gosho by i doubt this...

i forgot something... i won't doubt that kogoro is capable of good deductions he is just so lazy that he jumps to fast conclusion without regarding all the evidence or evaluating it properly... this is proven by MANY MANY statements by officers of the police who used to work with him while he still was on police duty... e.g. megure in early cases(jumping to suicide conclusions), yuminaga (jumping to accident conclusion although it was arson) etc. . for me this proves the fact that he doesn't really care about what happens when sleeping kogoro appears and he gets the fame

1. Like Takagi, Kogorou has gradually come to the conclusion that Conan is not an ordinary kid. However, he may just think that he's a super smart boy. I do remember that there were cases when Kogorou has been noticing a certain prick BUT I also don't think that he has already come to the conclusion that it's Conan behind the pricking.
2. Kogorou may be aware that Conan's gadgets come from Agasa but at the same time, I think that Kogorou will not go as far as to assume that Agasa game such gadgets to Conan because Conan = Shinichi. Agasa has always introduced Conan as a long-lost relative and as your friendly neighborhood scientist, one would assume that he's the type who'd invent stuff for the kid of his long-lost cousin's sister's brother... or something 
3. Kogorou is actually quite a virtuous character, despite his heavy drinking and womanizing. In that early case where his old mates in the police were involved in a crime, he was able to solve the crime by himself and well, he has a good heart. He's just clueless most of the time but I don't think he's the sort who will take advantage of other people's talents and he is quite proud so if he already knew that Conan = Shinichi, he'd be pissed and not pleased that again, he's been beaten by "that detective brat". My point is, he is the type who would want to beat Shinichi fair and square and not take advantage of his situation.

i see it the same way... if he was aware of something there should/would be at least be a slight hint in one of his thought bubbles at some point...

Didn't Kogoro said in the early chapters in the manga that he has seen Conan's face in Ran's childhood and when Conan point-out something it turns out to be crucial evidence.

And haven't you notice Kogoro's attitude towards Shinichi changed. He is not anymore mad or angry when seeing or hearing Shinichi's name but instead he became caring to Shinichi just like in one instances when Shinichi was turning to Conan in episode 522. And he was ready to cooperate with Shinichi during the London case.

And also I think Kogoro is already immune of the sleeping tranquilizer darts of Conan and after all Kogoro  isn't that stupid. He could solve a case if he has determination to find the truth.

I don't know if Kogoro pointed out that Conan's face is similar to someone's from Ran's childhood, though I could've just forgotten. His attitude has seemed to change, but it could also be due to his recent "success," the 'detective brat' doesn't bug him as much.

[Kogorou]

Yeah Kogorou has changed a lot. He doesn't go that wild anymore.
I think we will see something sooner or later

[skdc8595]

This is when Kogoro said that he saw Conan's face in Ran's childhood

And this is when Kogoro said that Conan is not a normal kid

[Kogorou]

Yeah right now is the best time that someone could discover the secret of Conan.
And it really seems that Kogorou doesn't go wild about Shinichi anymore.
I think he has figured something out but can't deduce the right thing now so he just keeps quite about it.

I've seen the White Day Case posted several times on here and I have to agree that Kogorou know that something is up that is beyond his control because he's is fully aware of being pricked by something in the neck (or the forehead) and also that he can never remember the details. Any normal human being would have questioned this by now.

And that's the trouble right there.

hahahaha.  But seriously, what's he supposed to do other than let it happen?  Who's to say he hasn't questioned it in his head?  Because what's the alternative, go to the hospital and say, "Hey, right before I solve a mystery I feel a prick and fall asleep.  Am I being possessed or what?"  What else can he do other than count himself lucky?

[Abs.]

The latest file... Kogorou's just... "I am totally Shinichi's bitch right now but whatev"
