969 text spoilers: http://tamae.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/ymag/1470311029/358 Translated by Spimer from DCTP: Break Next Week.

Hyoue: Rei/Tooru has been revealed, through the AC hints, to be a Public Security agent... of the NPA. I wouldn't be surprised if he turns out to be Rei's/Tooru's boss. If Rum didn't lose his eye when he killed Koji Haneda (scissors to the eye), then I'd say he lost it in the incident that also cost Hyoue his eye and put him in a coma. As for Hyoue being Rum? Since Sherry's supposed to be dead, perhaps he wouldn't have been briefed on that, upon his awakening, due to the BO considering that business to be over with, and perhaps part of the memory he lost would be Shiho's eight-year-old face, at least, hence why he didn't recognize her. Perhaps he doesn't know about Shinichi Kudo, and the BO didn't brief him, upon his awakening—if we assume Shiho's change of his status to "deceased" still stands, of course—but I couldn't tell you whether he merely considers Conan Edogawa as a very interesting child, or as a potential threat, if he is Rum. Of course, that part about him not being briefed on Sherry would mean that he awoke after Mystery Train, and—as far as I know—it wasn't said how long ago Hyoue had woken up, so that's up in the air, unless someone has an answer on that, and I just missed or forgot about it. Sakurako: While I do get the "just a side character whose voice actress Gosho likes" argument, it's a waste of potential for her to be just a housekeeper who is the childhood friend of Naeko and Kazunobu. In fact, Gosho could give her a Tomoaki-like role for this arc because he likes her voice actress. I don't see why Gosho made her aware of the act that Shinichi/Conan puts on other than because he planned for her to become involved with the main plot, at some point after her introduction. I can't see her being Rum—she's way too young, and if Gosho had her be a false identity for Rum, it'd be perhaps a bit too similar to Vermouth disguised as Tomoaki—so maybe she'll end up as the housekeeper of the character who turns out to be Rum, or there could be a blood or family connection. Rumi: Agent? BO member? Third party? Given her focus on Shinichi/Conan, she knew about him beforehand—she may very well have joined Teitan Elementary to get close to him. I also can't see her being Rum... unless she has a Hyoue-like reason not to recognize Shiho/Ai (provided how I proposed Hyoue could be Rum stands up). I'd never thought of this—she could be Asaka... or, really, Akasa, and Shinichi/Conan and Shuichi/Subaru read Koji's message wrong. Maybe the reason she's focused on Shinichi/Conan is because he's investigating the murder, and she thinks he'll be the one that can lead her to the killer. Here's an idea—a stretch, most certainly—Rumi is a mother, and a sister of another mother.

Apologies for the double post. Here's how things will go for the next month: 7/27: 968 becomes available 8/3: Break 8/10: 969 becomes available 8/17: Break (969 releases in a double issue of shonen sunday) 8/24: There's a possibility of a break, here, but, most likely, 970 will become available (if not, 970 will become available on 8/31) Now here are the 968 text spoilers, translated by Spimer from DCTP:

Apologies for the double post. 967 text spoiler translation from Spimer at DCTP: No break next week!

Ah. My apologies for misunderstanding.

Uh, because this is Detective Conan, where plot threads can be left dangling for years to decades before continuation, let alone resolution? Depending on one's perspective, this has either been the case from the start, the case since the Vermouth arc ended, or the case since the Bourbon arc started, or even places in-between those.

RULES 1. Please use spoiler boxes until a full English translation is available. 2. NO DIRECT LINK to any Japanese scans (RAWs) or English scans (Japanese spoiler images are allowed as long as the amount and quality of which are very far away from a full scan). HOW TO USE A SPOILER BOX? Just simply type the following: [spoiler]Text you want to write[/spoiler] 966 text spoilers: http://tamae.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/ymag/1467712058/353 966 text spoilers, translated by Spimer from DCTP:

I think he means that once the plot moves forward (Shiho/Ai finds out/is told that Rei/Tooru is a NPA agent), she can finally interact with him.

That's two in a row for me... we'll see if I can keep it up. In these days, plot gets spread out, often in smaller bits—next case will probably have some mention of Koji Haneda and Asaka/Rum at some point. It has been six files since it was last mentioned, after all.

Apologies for the double post. Here's Spimer's translation of the text spoilers, on DCTP:

That's not a Porsche. It's front is nothing like that of a Porsche. For instance, this car has a grill—Gin's Porsche does not.

The schedule for July just came out—they're doing the return to the Ramen place case before the Shinichi/Ran flashback case.

Apologies for the double post.

There have been no "Part 25" (they refer to the seasons as parts) DVDs as of yet. As of right now, Season 24 lasts from Episode 740 to Episode 768. We will have to wait to see is there is an 8th and maybe even a 9th DVD (there are currently 7 DVDs that comprise the Season/Part 24 Episodes) until we can draw the line between Season 24 and Season 25. http://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/Japanese_DVDs

Here are the 960 text spoilers, translated by Spimer from DCTP. The Chinese scanned 960 is not yet out.
