| − | First of all: Beika of course isn't real. :p But [[Gosho Aoyama]] once said it's a combination of real and fictional parts mixed up and the Manga indeed is ripe with little hints to where it ''would'' approximately be located if it would exist. The town of Beika and its equally fictional neighbouring districts like [[Haido]], [[Toriya]], [[Buraku]] and [[Sutan]] are set in a fictionalized ward of Tokyo ({{nihongo|Beika Ward|米花区|Beika-ku}}) which is roughly located on/in a real-life area consisting of a good chunk of northern [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minato,_Tokyo Minato] (maybe a third or even half of it), as well as small parts of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiyoda,_Tokyo Chiyoda], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shibuya Shibuya] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shinagawa Shinagawa] (and ''maybe a little'' of the south of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shinjuku Shinjuku]) bordering on it - or on a made-up piece of land between all of those. This position of Beika is pretty consistent throughout the [[Manga]] and suggested by the following evidence.

The line indeed lead from [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shibuya_Station Shibuya Station] through Minato Ward, stopped at the Tower and had its final destination at [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shimbashi_Station Shimbashi Station].

Interestingly, this intersection is right next to another famous crossroads in Ginza - the one Kid did his midair walk over in ''[[Detective Conan]]'' later on.
