Discussion thread for the next case in Conan's search for the truth of Rena Mizunashi and Hondou Eisuke's identity!
Grad the english edit over at the linker!

***spoilers for this chapter/arc follow***
Well, Conan was right. The "Rena" with the FBI is blood type AB+, confirmed by Jodie, and Eisuke is type O. Conan is being careful and thorough, since he still wants to confirm whether Eisuke's sister actually gave blood to him as Eisuke claimed (this is what he thinks on pp.14, after seeing the proof of Eisuke's blood type). I have to say that Aoyama is still being a careful writer. (I shouldn't have doubted it, heh.)
Let's assume he does confirm that "Rena" is a double… Then was there really another younger brother of the "Rena" in the hospital, or was she a good protégée or Vermouth's, acting "in character" even when it seemed there's no audience that would really appreciate the act at the time, or was there actually a reason to maintain the Hondou act as "Mizunashi" even after they eliminated Hondou the CIA agent and do so in front of Kogoro/Ran/Conan, or was there some other reason for the tears? Why go to Kogoro about the prankster (remember Haibara wondered about that, too (49.10 pp 7))? Why not turn Conan over to Gin and point out the operation's security was breached and that she saw the sprinklers being damaged? (Well, okay, given Gin's killing of Pisco, I can understand why she wouldn't want to risk being blamed for the security breach, Evil Doppelganger or not.)
It would be so much simpler if there were no double, and Rena/Hondou neechan was just one nice person who was forced into a bad situation…

Scanlation of 587's up, looks like it's going to turn out to be another normal case.
But... Eisuke must know his father's dead, correct? Who is he receiving checks from?
And Nigayomogi, where did you get the CIA agent thing?

"The Company" is most likely the CIA. It's how insiders often refer to the organization.

Is it me or does the head woman look like Vermouth?

Okay, I can certify absolutely the rumor was untrue this time. ^^* Or rather, the person who did it last week was being impersonated this week. Message boards. ^^; Oh well.
Anyways, there's nothing wrong with normal cases. ^^*
*The name of the file is 死を呼ぶ片手袋 (The one handbag [11/06 edit: 'hand bag' is apparently a glove] which calls death) Yes, it's a 'normal' case. May not be over for a while since the actual event on the last page involves (case spoiler)...
A certain character of the household being hung.
The highlight of the file (according to blogs): Hondou x Ran ^^; The wife comments what a cute girlfriend Hondou has... ^^*

Was Conan in hearing range when they said that? Shinichi/Conan is VERY protective of his girlfriend (not that he'd admit it but...)
Conan wouldn't even let Eisuke's finger get bandaged by Ran when it was injured during the "Eisuke's 1st appearance"case (vol.49, file 9, pg. 15), so he REALLY wouldn't like to hear THAT particular comment ^^;;;;
So, now we know how Eisuke got those major injuries that required a blood transfusion when he was little, but I still wonder, Was that really an accident?
It's possible to run over someone on purpose and claim it was an accident, that "...the kid was in the wrong place, at the wrong time when the car came..." or something along those lines (BO is famous for making "accidents" that happen to family and friends of their enemies, right?)
@knightus Where is that message board you keep talking about exactly? It seems interesting

Thank you Knightus & team for releasing the file on such a short notice. Obviously it isn't a suicide. The rope mechanism was triggered by the door opening (for those of you who don't know what I'm talking about: you'll know once you've read the latest file). Conan is holding back his joker, I wonder if he'd risk letting them meet. Also, it has become obvious through Eisuke's relation to Ran that he's the new Araide - only time will tell if he is the weapon Gin mentioned in the end of 504.

UPDATE: I have file 590 - sorta. I can't scan the whole thing in until Tuesday night. Here's the last page though (which is the scene the spoiler talked about): [edited] --- Newest chapter out this week of course (590), and reading blogs it appears rather interesting. [spoilers...] Apparently Hondou ends up changing clothes with Ran. When Conan sees Eisuke's bare chest, he notices something....(I'm sure everyone would rather have scans. I'm working on that...) One commentary on SS-50: here. ================= Got the File 589 raw up~
