@ BTW2

She probably know. Because when Gin talk about silver bullet, Vermouth refer to another silver bullet (in her though) that they should be aware of. I don't know how she know. Probably because she saw Conan with Jodie in 425 and assume FBI work with Conan from then.

well... i don't really think this points toward her knowing about her knowing about conan's involvement in the clash arc... her thinking of him as a (/the) silver bullet is something we know of since the end of her own arc, isn't it... i was implying that she would probably know that kir is a noc for sure if she would know conan was involved/there in the hospital, because her silverbullet-kun would be able to hide kir from them

You know Okiya makes more pointless camoes than Birdman does in everyone's music videos.

I haven't read most of this thread, so I don't know if this has been brought up before, but I wanted to point out something I found interesting about the term "okiya".

I recently finished reading Memoirs of a Geisha, and in it, an "okiya" is the building in which the geisha live during first their years as maids before they can train to be geisha, then while they're training to be geisha, and after they've been registered as geisha.  The geisha pay off their debts (from their purchase by the house leaders, training, supplies, etc.) to the okiya before they can go off on their own if they so choose.

What precisely that could mean for Okiya Subaru, I can't say, but I do find it rather interesting nonetheless.

I might wake up early and go running. I also might wake up and win the lottery. The odds are about the same.

LOLXD I read that when I typed "Okiya" in Google...

But I think it has nothing to do with our Okiya Subaru XDD

Who is Okiya Subaru?!
Spoiler:
I'd like to think that Okiya is Shuichi Akai do to the fact that their making it way to obvious that he is Bourbon. Do to the information gathered though you would make the assumption that he is Bourbon do to the fact that even before he met Conan, he was living nearby Dr. Agasa's house, probably do to the fact that he was keeping an eye on Haibara. Also Haibara also has here "BO Sense" around him. Haibara's "BO Sense" hasn't seemed to be wrong yet so why start now? The fact that he ask Dr. Agasa to stay at his house also supports the idea that he wants to continue to spy on Haibara. His keen intelligence and suspicious behavior around Conan also points to that fact that he is Bourbon.
