[edit] Case Closed Manga Volume 2

Akemi was watched by the black organization most of her life. Then she decided to join under the alias Masami Hirota which is her old university professor's name. She helped them with robbery in order to get her little sister, Shiho, back from them. The robbery was a success, however one of her partners took the money and escaped. In order to find him she hired Richard Moore (Kogoro Mori), pretending to be that man's highschool-aged daughter. The third robber, a giant, strangled their partner in his apartment. Later, Akemi was tricked by the men in black into poisoning the giant. She met her contacts, Gin and Vodka. Gin revealed that he knew her real name and shot her. Conan Edogawa arrives too late and she dies in his arms right after he told her who he really is: Jimmy Kudo (Shin'ichi Kudo). As the police found a gun besides her, her death is reported to be a suicide.

[edit] Episode 13 and Episode 128

While Episode 13 (The Strange Person Murder Hunt Case)is pretty much a faithful adaptation of the manga, the portion involving the mastermind is where it diverges. Rather than being Gin and Vodka, the mastermind behind the murders is a character known as O'Brian. Aside from the fact that the black organization isn't involved, Masami survives the gunshot.

Since Shiho Miyano's appearance was coming up in the anime, the writers had to remake Episode 13 for Episode 128 (The Black Corps One Billion Yen Robbery Case). This time including Akemi Miyano and Gin/Vodka.
