- Voiced by: Wataru Takagi (Japanese); Dameon Clarke (English)

Police Officers
Template:Case Closed names Juzo Megure (目暮 十三, Megure Jūzō) / Joseph Meguire
- Voiced by: Chafurin (Japanese); Mark Stoddard (English)
- Inspector Megure (目暮警部, Megure-keibu) is a veteran police officer who has been working with Conan, Yusaku Kudo and Richard Moore. In fact, Moore used to work under him 10 years ago. It was noted in the second Detective Conan movie that he never took his hat off; it is eventually revealed in Volume 29 of the manga that he uses it to hide an old scar which reminds him of a special case from his early police days.
Template:Case Closed names Miwako Sato (佐藤 美和子, Satō Miwako)
- Voiced by: Atsuko Yuya
- A young female officer who works with Meguire. Her father was also a police officer who was killed on duty when she was only six years old. Her former partner Matsuda was killed in an explosion. She made her debut as a cameo appearance in Volume 19 of the manga and was properly introduced in Volume 21.
- Tough, energetic, and a dedicated police officer that her "dates" tend to turn into police investigations, but she also can be quite lively and cheerful. Sato is hugely popular with the male members of the police department, but to their chagrin she, albeit hesitantly, begins to develop feelings for her colleague Takagi. She has come to value Conan's aid in several tough cases and trusts his judgment implicitly.
Template:Case Closed names Wataru Takagi (高木 ワタル, Takagi Wataru) / Detective Takagi Wilder
- Voiced by: Wataru Takagi (Japanese); Doug Burks (English)
- Another officer who works with Meguire and has a crush on Sato which is somewhat awkwardly requited. He was first introduced in the anime and made his first manga appearance in Volume 17. His last name, Takagi, is used as the first name in the English Manga.
- Takagi has an appearance of ineffectual nervousness, but he's not as useless as he seems. He is quick to assess a situation and take immediate and decisive action when necessary are points in his favor. He also appeared to know (or at least suspect) about Conan/Jimmy's secret identity and problem; this is seen when he makes close observation to Conan in some investigation and in the end of Volume 36 when Conan wants to defuse the time bomb.
Officer Chiba (千葉刑事)
- Voiced by: Isshin Chiba
- Takagi's partner who likes to eat a lot. He's nice and very encouraging towards his friend. He made his debut in the fourth Detective Conan movie, then as a cameo appearance in Volume 29 of the manga and was properly introduced in Volume 32. Later in the series it's revealed he is a fan of the children's show Kamen Yaiba (Case Closed's counterpart to Japan's "Kamen Rider").
Template:Case Closed names Ninzaburo Shiratori (白鳥 任三郎, Shiratori Ninzaburō) / Inspector Santos
- Voiced by: Kazuhiko Inoue (Japanese); Eric Vale (English)
- Another officer who works with Meguire and likes Sato; however, she does not feel the same about him. He made his first appearance in the first Detective Conan movie and his manga appearance was in Volume 21, along with Officer Sato. Later in the series he makes overt advances towards Miwako, relying heavily on his status as the scion of a wealthy family (and doing his best to make the shy and awkward Takagi feel inferior in the process).
Template:Case Closed names Kiyonaga Matsumoto (松本 清長, Matsumoto Kiyonaga) / Commander Kristopher McLaughlin
- Voiced by: Seizo Katou (Japanese); Bob Carter (English)
- He is the superior officer of Juzo Megure and his underlings. His brutish appearance and the scar running down his left eye easily hide the fact that he is a caring, if somewhat stern, father figure. He is widowed and has a single daughter, Sayuri Matsumoto / Catherine McLaughlin, who used to be Shin'ichi's, Ran's, and Sonoko's music teacher in middle school.
Template:Case Closed names
Inspector Sango Yokomizo (横溝 参悟, Yokomizo Sango) / Detective Worthington
- Voiced by: Akio Ohtsuka (Japanese); Dameon Clarke (English)
- A stern-looking police inspector from Saitama (later he transfers to Shizuoka) whom Conan has run into on several occasions.

He made his first appearance in the Case Closed Volume 6.
Inspector Sango Yokomizo
- The twin brother of Inspector Yokomizo, Jugo (also an inspector) works at the Kawanaga police department. As intimidating as his older brother, he is much neater and much less easy-going, which does not make him particularly popular with the people he encounters.
Inspector Misao Yamamura
- Voiced by: Toshio Furukawa
- A young police officer from the Gunma Prefecture. Thanks to watching too much TV, he is very enthusiastic about his work but is totally naive, bumbling and child-headed, and thus totally unsuited for the job. The first reaction of Conan and all who know him whenever they happen to encounter him is exasperation, but once set on the right track he is very supportive.
Jinpei Matsuda (松田 陣平, Matsuda Jinpei)
- Voiced by: Canna Nobutoshi
- Miwako's parter who died while trying to stop a bomb from exploding. He chose to stay inside a Ferris wheel ride with a bomb because a message came that another bomb's location would be displayed on the casing three seconds before the explosion. He originally meant to redeem his partner Hagiwara, who died four years before in a related incident, but was unable to succeed. Miwako was partnered with him for less than a week, but his intense personality and subsequent death left a huge and lasting impact on her for years to come. Judging from her reactions to him shortly before he died, it is believed Sato was starting to fall in love with him. She has now carried the love on to Detective Wilder, though she does not admit it. His character design is based on that of the famous Japanese actor Yusaku Matsuda.

- Voiced by: Ryo Horikawa (Japanese); Kevin M. Connolly (English)
- Jimmy's rival detective from Osaka, who later becomes friends with him. He has a relationship with martial artist Kazuha Toyama, his childhood friend and would-be love interest, and this is pretty similar in the case of Jimmy and Rachel.

- Unlike Jimmy, his favorite author is Ellery Queen rather than Sir Arthur Conan Doyle who wrote Sherlock Holmes.
Kazuha Toyama (遠山和葉, Toyama Kazuha) / Katie Thompson
- Voiced by: Yuko Miyamura
- Harley's would-be girlfriend and (like him) the child of a police officer. Her relationship with Harley closely mirrors Rachel's with Jimmy, because both are too shy to admit that they feel more than 'friendship' for their respective partner; perhaps this is what makes her a close friend to Rachel. She is skilled in Aikido.
Template:Case Closed names Yusaku Kudo (工藤 優作, Kudō Yusaku) / Booker Kudo
- Voiced by: Hideyuki Tanaka (Japanese); Randy Tallman (English)

- Voiced by: Gara Takashima (Japanese); Julie Mayfield (English)

Tomoaki Araide (新出 智明, Araide Tomoaki)
- Voiced by: Hideyuki Hori
- A young doctor and the son of Richard's physician. He was once the basketball coach on Rachel's school and, upon their first encounter, thought to be a rival for Jimmy/Conan's affections for Rachel.
- While Tomoaki had practised along with his father, he intended to move to Aomori for a job at a local clinic, along with his grandmother Mitsu Araide and his household helper Hikaru Yatsumoto, especially after his father had been murdered by his stepmother Yoko for driving his actual mother (and Yoko's friend), Chiaki, into alcoholism and eventual death. However, he has reappeared in Conan's vicinity on several occasions - seemingly at least; his identity was used by Vermouth in order to track down Ai aka Sherry. He was almost murdered by her to faciliate the cover, but the FBI had temporarily moved him to safety in America. After Vermouth's disguise was exposed, he returned (as of volume #44) to Teitan High School and continues to practice in the area.
Hikaru Yatsumoto
- Voiced by: Akiko Hiramatsu
- She is the young household keeper to Dr. Tomoaki Araide. She tends to be overly nervous about her chores, mostly because of the possibility that she may have a crush on her young employer that once was her doctor and therefore is too anxious about having to leave him.
Makoto Kyogoku

- Sonoko's boyfriend, and the karate champion of Teitan High School. He first appears in episode 153, and is a suspect during a case where Sonoko is a target for a killer. He saves Sonoko from the real killer, however, and hints that he is actually attracted to her. In his own way, he can be considered a valuable ally because of his fighting style. Because of his participation in several tournaments inland and overseas, and a well-hidden shyness towards Sonoko, they do not get to see each other often.
Template:Case Closed names Sumiko Kobayashi
- Voiced by: Yuko Kato
- She is (as of Vol.16) the Detective Boys' class teacher. Actually a kind person, in her initial period at Teitan Elementary she was known as "the witch" due to her harsh behaviour to her students, which was in fact prompted by previous bad experience and her innate stage fright. With the help of Conan and his little friends she has warmed considerably, and after having seen the Detective Boys in action she has even appointed herself as their manager.
- Incidentally, Ms. Kobayashi is a huge fan of detective story writer Rampo Edogawa - the author whose surname Shinichi had adopted for his alias. As yet, she has not guessed at that connection between the two.
Eisuke Hondou (本堂 瑛祐, Hondō Eisuke)
- Voiced by: Junko Noda
- Hondou is Rachel's new classmate and is very clumsy.

Conan is the only one having second thoughts about Eisuke, but others think that he's a just a smart misguided student. In episode 464, Eisuke tries to dig for information on how Richard Moore figures out his cases. After the Kir escaping incident, Eisuke is revealed to be the son of a deceased CIA agent, Ethan Hondou. The Government offers him protection, but he refuses it. When Eisuke tells Conan that he loves Ran and intends to take her to America with him, Conan tells Eisuke his secret.

Template:Case Closed names Kaitou Kid (怪盗キッド, Kaitō Kiddo) / Phantom Thief Kid
- Voiced by: Kappei Yamaguchi (Japanese); Jerry Jewell (English)
- A thief that looks a lot like Jimmy and he also has a best friend named Aoko Nakamori, who looks a lot like Rachel. Despite the fact that Jimmy/Conan does not care much about investigating thefts, Kid can be considered his archnemesis, as he is the one criminal (beside some members of the BO) he can't seem to catch. Curiously, Kaitou discovers Conan's true identity, but keeps his secret, and sometimes Jimmy can even count on Kid's help to solve some of his cases. His codename in the police department is 'Thief 1412'. Kaitou Kid appears in his own manga series, Magic Kaito. While Kid previously stole antiques and arts of high value, he now focuses primarily on jewels, a quest that aids the search of his father's murderer (who was Kaitou Kid before he died 8 years ago).
Reiko Kujo
- An anime only character. She is a lawyer that has appeared in only four episodes(264-265; 297-298), each concerning a courtroom case in which she is Eva Kadan's rival. Considering she has appeared in every courtroom battle as a rival, she may also appear in episode 489, which will mark the third courtroom battle case.
APTX 4869
APTX 4869 is a fictional toxin is a derivative of an experimental immortality formula, adapted by Sherry to function as an untraceable, lethal poison.
APTX is an abbreviation of "Apotoxin," and, as the name implies, it involves the activation of uncontrolled apoptosis which causes death by the destruction of cells. In addition, it can also activate telomerase.
The poison is designed to be untraceable in its victims. However, in very rare cases, it causes the apoptosis of non-neural cells only and the apoptosis would stabilise at some point, causing the victim's apparent age to be decreased. Conan Edogawa, the series' protagonist, is such a victim; later Shiho Miyano, who chooses to attempt suicide by using her own drug, was added to the very short list of people not killed by APTX-4869.
Throughout the series there are several instances in which the APTX was temporarily neutralized and Shinichi and Ai/Shiho were returned to their actual age forms. The main ingredient for this reversal is a component found in Chinese ginseng root schnaps, which Ai has already incorporated in a prototype - and as yet non-permanent - antidote for the APTX. It is to note that in the instances where Shinichi or Ai changed back, the recipient was suffering from a common cold while the component was ingested, indicating that the immune system somehow has to be taxed for the antidote to work.
