Does Ran know about Conan?

Throughout the series (and one of the movies) we have seen Ran suspect of Conan's true identity, but she has always been brought back one way or another. Do you think she knows and is pretending not to? Or do you think she's that oblivious that she hasn't come to that conclusion? Whatever you think, it is clear that Gosho doesn't want to give a conclusive answer on the matter (alright, maybe he's leaning towards the 'she doesn't know' side, but there's still have been hints to support the opposite.) In the end, however, only one of the possibilities will be true. Which one do you side with?

Really? I mean she's been really close to figuring that out God knows how many times. One of those must have sticked ;)

No offence to total offence to Ran but I just don't think shes that perceptive and/or observant to come to that conclusion again. I don't blame her, she's been fooled so many times I doubt many people would think it again. Its not like she's L or anything.

LOL. I guess part of that is definitely true. She's not the most observant tool in the shed, but there had still been enough times where she has been observant for the to be convinced that she knows Conan's secret :)

I don't know. All I've noticed is that she knows Conan is really smart. If you read the new file then I think thats another proof she doesn't know that Conan = Shinichi

I'm gonna have to take your word for that, since I'm an anime kind of guy. I don't know; I always felt like there should be a reason as to why she acts the way she does around Conan, specially the way she encourages him sometimes. And I always though that a reasonable explanation for that would be that she knows about Conan, but understands that if she was supposed to know, he would have told her already, and hence she decides to go along with it.

Oh, that's true. Maybe she had an impulse that she couldn't control? I don't know, it can get really confusing when you start analyzing the evidence for each sideĀ  ???

It is actually very possible that not even Gosho knows the answer to this poll, and he's just sort of playing it by year, thereby making us all insane.

I know! It'd just be a much more positive and pleasant outcome that way, wouldn't it? Although I don't know if pleasant and positive is the way DC is going right now...

Yeah, It would be the best thing to happen in the Serie and now that
Spoiler:
They're in London
might be a good moment for her to confront him and ask him to tell her everything, maybe He'll do something and that will make Ran suspect more of him again and so finally ask him to tell her the truth or at least partially the truth.

But, Gosho might have another thing planned so far.

Added spoiler tags - Abs.

Oh, if only :) Even since episode 3 I'm waiting for Conan to confess. I mean, seriously! It's been driving me insane for the past 12 years.

Not until we get a Detective Ran investigates Conan arc.
