no don't worry!everytime gosho said there will be a break for one  or two weeks,he keeps his promise!
he may need a lot of time to continue this great BO arc(maybe there will be some twists ;)  )so he can take the time he want if he comes with a great scenario!

I have to sure that Shuu and Conan have made some kinda trick about Shuu's death cuz Conan didn't worry at all about where Shuu at after that case in Raiha Fall. They must have analysed what would happen if Kir was goin back to BO. So MAYBE they have prepared the worst. Not mention Yukiko is an expert too about the art of disguise?  ??? She could have been asked by her son to make over Shuu??? And also she was an actress, she might known about a trick to fake the death to make it really real. Yeah, Aoyama Gosho is a great mangaka, we dont know until we see it with our very own eyes, so many possibilities. The only thing bother me about is I think that Vermouth knows about Kir is a CIA's spy, and also because Vermouth is a master of disguise ... ( :oahhhhh, I can't say it, it's just a random theory, unexpected theory ^^), the only thing I know is that Vermouth is an actress, she maybe know about all tricks to fake the death so she tought about it and want to confirm it by looking at FBI's reaction when they saw Akai is still alive,,, ahhhh not to mention maybe scarred Shuu is Bourbon ;)....
Ahhhhhhhhh I cant think about it anymore !!!!!! ;D

Bourbon seemed to know Akai and hated him more than Gin hated him... according to spoilers.
Is Bourbon really a new guy? Or someone we've seen in the past?
I was wondering what's the meaning of "new" in the organization.... official accepted by Gin or just joining???^_-
maybe new guy to come out in this mission for hunting "the prey"...
not newcomer, right...???
just maybe... :-\ ;D

I find odd that Conan, after hearing that someone in FBI had died - wasn't very shocked. (Considering that he may know that this someone is Akai).
But when he heard that Akai may be still alive, and even more - walking around nearby, he was like pooping hedgehogs shocked.
And not only that... Both "Akai" and Okiya knew that BO was there. I doubt that Akai would mock a sniper, but there he goes.

I had a crazy idea when i looked at "Akai" at this page.
http://www.onemanga.com/Detective_Conan/704/10/
"Akai" looks like Rena! XD


And i think i said it before. It doesn't really matter whenever Akai is alive or dead. Because while his status is unconfirmed, he is one and only mystical character in Conan. I mean Kaito has one, why can't Conan?
What do i meant? Well since he is either Alive nor Dead he is a Schrödinger's cat - XD
And by opening the box he may lose all that mystery...
Did you know that this world does exist?

I think he's in his twenties... maybe 31 at the very oldest, but he certainly looks considerably younger than that.

I don't think he's dead. The shot "through" the head was silhouetted and his head shaded so we never actually saw the wound, and the burning body's face was hidden. There's too much pointing to it being a setup designed to elaborately fake his death, not least that fact that his identity was verified through a set of prints that Akai and Conan had made a rather obvious show of planting on his cellphone...
Don't forget Aoyama-sensei's love of mystery trivia either. Reiha Falls? Like anybody'll ACTUALLY die there except Moriarty.

RULE #1 IN BEING A DETECTIVE ACCORDING TO DETECTIVE CONAN: If you didn't see it happening, then it didn't happen ;D

I don't know if it's been mentioned before, but the blood shooting out of the back of his head like that?  Exit wounds are not so neat.
