Question About Akemi's Message to Akai

[Dus]

"PS. Take care of Shiho if this doesn't work" could be possible too though less likely since she would think Shiho's still in the BO while Akai's been proven traitor and so can't quite protect her.

It would make perfect sense, since Akemi wanted her sister to get out of the Org.

I agree with Dus, since Akemi did it so both of them could leave the Org

You are forgetting something. Akai likely told her he was a spying on the Bo. Why would she want to endanger her sister even more by having Akai caring for Hairaba? The Bo might use that againist Akai to force him to confess his spying for the FBI.
Also when he would be found out, Akai would be give a death sentence, even if he escaped. Would Akemi really send her sister into such danger? Also while Akemi did without doubt want her sister out, she knew her sister was doing a job where it was unlikely Hairaba would even be allowed to leave. Even if she completed the Drug, she knows way too much. It more likely that Akemi wanted more freedom for Hairaba. It is also likely she knew the Bo was lying to her about her release and the Bank job was a one in 100,000 chance of getting out of the Bo.

you forgot that the BO said they would kill both of the sisters if Akemi fails the robbery... so it makes sense to ask Akai to protect Shiho if she doesn't succeed the Bank job...it's just an extra security to protect Shiho IF the BO decide to kill her (you know how BO are unpredictable  )

I don't understand what is so wrong with that theory

[Shuusgirl]

The only problem with Akemi asking Akai to protect Shiho is timeline.  I'm pretty sure Akai was already found out by this time (wasn't that one of the catalysts for Akemi wanting to leave anyway?) and I highly doubt Akemi's the type of person who would ask the guy she loves to put himself in danger like that. I mean, what's it gonna say?  "I know that the B.O knows you're a traitor, but can you keep an eye on the head of the scientists for me?"
She prolly just said "I love you."

Akemi know something wrong with Akai. but don't know he's FBI till the day he told her "I will put and to it tomorrow" which probably shortly before plan to capture Gin goes wrong and his identity exposed. If Akemi ask Akai to protect Shiho. that after Akai out of BO

My question was this: I am sure Akai told Akemi he is a spy. He might have even added for the FBI. A spy job is very dangerous.
So going back to the first part of the message: "If this works:"
Why ask anyone to watch or take care of Hairaba if the Bo is indeed going to let Akemi live? Akemi can take care of Hairaba herself.
Also asking a spy to take care of your sister seem to be a bad idea as a spy life is in danger and also would her sister be in that danger. And if Akai was killed, and she is also gone, what then? Who is going to care for Hairaba then?
I do not think Akemi would think so short term. That why I doubt the Ps has a 'care for my sister' type message. Also it seem to me that Akemi would not add the problem of  caring for Hairaba to Akai. He has enough problems himself without adding that one.
Also The Bo is diffidently NOT going to kill Hairaba at the time of the message. She is doing a kind of job for the Bo ONLY she can do. The Bo is very unlikely to Kill Hairaba. And Akemi should know that.

[Blah]

P.S. I'd really like to know your real name. 

If I'm being serious, I agree with most people. She probably said something like, If something goes wrong will you make sure nothing bad happens to my sister? She knows he's smart and she probably still trusts him at least a little. To me, it just seems like something she would ask because she was going through with the robbery in the first place to try to help Shiho and, as far as I know, she had no one else to ask for help besides Akai.

thank you...you said exactly what I wanted to respond to sstimson

Akai is the only one Akemi trusted,besides Shiho...so it's logical to ask him for help if something goes wrong with her sister...
the BO said CLEARLY that they would kill Akemi and Shiho if she doesn't succeed the robbery...so I guess Akemi believed their words,and she wanted Akai to keep an eye on Shiho (which is legitimate since it's because of him that they were in danger XDD)
and seriously,you think Akemi would care to "not add the problem of Haibara to Akai"?
At that time she wanted to save Shiho and her lives... and since he's FBI he could use many tricks to protect Shiho without being in danger(desguising himself for example...)
She probably  thought Shiho was more in danger than Akai,who have the support of FBI,while Shiho was alone in the BO,without any external help

for me,the PS would probably be"if something goes wrong,please try to protect my sister from them"

As I said before,it's just an extra precaution to protect her sister...Of course there was a risk that Akai would be killed,so what?he was already in danger and Akemi was desperate,what solution she had at that time ?

and the "PS:I love you" doesn't work for me...she already asked in this message if he wanted to go out with her after the robbery, it's pretty explicit that she still in love with him,there's no need to add the "I love you"

[KainTheVampire]

Yeah, there's definitely something after the "P.S."

I want to know what o.O

[User 4869]

Take me a while to realize "P.S. I'd really like to know your real name" didn't direct to anyone here but it is Akemi's message.

While "Please take care Shiho" or "I love you" are one of the most obvious answers. I wonder why Gosho feel the need to hide them rather just to tease us. I somehow think it will contain information effect the plot, minor or major.

Can't stop listen to Akai's voice.

Check Vol 38 Chapter 8 page 15 for a different kind of PS. This shows that Gosho WILL shows confessions of love

What? which case? I somehow can't find it. could you be more specific. Tell the story if possible. I saw Heiji desperate case.

Vol38?
I don't understand the comparison you made...
Maybe you mean the Matsuda case with the PS sent to Sato...
anyway,it has nothing to do with Akemi's PS

@AICHAN:  You are correct, the Matsuda case has nothing to do with Akemi's PS, but sstimson's point is that Gosho could make Akemi's PS a confession of love simply because he's done it before.  Assuming that's the PS he was referring to.
