Hi, as i was rewatching Bus hijacking case today, it came to me that Gosho incorporated Little red riding hood story in DC, Vermouth arc, perfectly well.
Haibara wears red hoodie too probably as reference, Vermouth is the werewolf who killed grandma who is-Araide in this case, disguised, took her place, waited patiently to lure, hunt Little red riding hood, Akai Shuichi, Conan/Shin'ichi is Silver Bullet, enemy of werewolves, then her true werewolf face is unmasked/ revealed on full moon night when she abducts Haibara to Tokyo Bay to hunt.
Also like Gosho's usual naming/ story pattern which he pays homage to lots of Anime Japanese movies, this might've been inspired by/ homage to
