Elena Miyano (宮野 エレーナ Miyano Erēna?) was a biochemist in the Black Organization. She was married to Atsushi Miyano and had two children, Shiho Miyano and Akemi Miyano[2] Together she and Atsushi started the APTX 4869 research according to Vermouth.[3] Both Elena and Atsushi died during something that Pisco called an accident. Later the project was taken over by her daughter Shiho.

Background

Atsushi Miyano moved out of his father's house thirty years ago to go "somewhere" for his research, most likely the Black Organization. He got married in this time period to Elena, a foreigner of British origin. Vermouth may have hinted that there was an earlier project that the Miyanos assumed control over when they joined,[4] perhaps the one Shiho implied was at least 50 years old.[5] While they were researchers for the Organization, they worked on a project that they called Silver Bullet, which they refereed to as a "dream drug". This could be similar to, or the same one that Shiho calls APTX 4869.

Elena was known as “Hell’s Angel” in the Organization, which Haibara translates into Japanese as "the angel which fell into hell".[1] Elena may have earned the nickname because of her apparently nice personality which set her apart from the darkness of the rest of the organization.

While she was in the Organization, Elena had two daughters, Akemi and Shiho. She and her husband also met Hiroshi Agasa at a science conference. Tooru Amuro revealed that he had met Elena some time before she died.[6] Additionally, a woman resembling Elena appears in one of Bourbon's flashbacks in File 889, where she asked him not to pick fights anymore as she wouldn't be able to tend his wounds the next time he comes, because she will go to somewhere "very far away".

Later, the couple and a 4~5 year old Akemi visited Atsushi's father's house then occupied by Atsushi's childhood friend and playmate Souhei Degima. The visit occurred 20 years prior to the current timeline.[7]

Elena's death was claimed to be an accident by Pisco, an executive agent who apparently was close with the couple, but several mysterious points remain. Most notably, Elena and Atsushi seemed to know that something was going to happen to them, which Elena alluded to in her conversation with a young Rei Furuya and the tapes left for Shiho. In the tapes, Elena implies the drug they were working on, Silver Bullet, was related to their needing to leave Shiho and Akemi behind.

Tapes left for Shiho

Despite her cause of death apparently being an accident, for some reason Elena took the time to leave four tapes for Shiho meaning that Elena might have known something would happen or she was about to do something that she might not survive.[8] The four tapes are numbered 1-20 with the numbers split into groups of five. The numbers correspond to a message left by Elena for Shiho's same-numbered birthday; Conan listened to the beginning of the #11-15 tape and Elena’s recording was for 11-year-old Shiho.[9] Conan mentioned that he moved to the 11 through 15 one because there were so many blank ones, presumably referring to the earlier two #1-5, #6-10 tapes. On the fourth tape's number 18 meant for Ai’s 18th birthday, Elena talks about if Shiho will regret what she is about to do. Later on the same tape something Elena said about herself surprised Ai, but what was said was not revealed to the reader at that time. ("You are old enough to hear this… Actually, mom…") During the Bell Tree Express arc almost 400 chapters later, Haibara reveals the continuation of what Elena had said to her was that she was working on a remarkable drug she called "Silver Bullet", which may be an early nickname for APTX 4869 or a closely related project. She added that it was "terrifying" and the research would require them to leave Shiho and Akemi behind.

Elena seemed to be somewhat close to Akemi. For instance, Akemi was taken with Atsushi and Elena to the Miyano's old home. It was also Akemi who got the tapes for Shiho from Elena.

Appearance and Personality

The British Elena is the foreign half of Ai’s parents and bears a strong resemblance to her younger daughter. She wears glasses and has long hair. Her eyes have not been shown to date.

Elena seems to have had a generally nice personality, although Agasa feels she came off as being more suspicious than her "mad scientist" husband, Atsushi.[10] Given the tapes she left behind, Elena seems to have loved her daughters. That said, even though Elena knew that she was going to "disappear" in advance, she left her daughters at the mercy of the Black Organization.

When a makeup counter sales associate asks Haibara where her mother was, she commented that her mother had died shortly after she was born.

Speculation

Elena Miyano and the Unknown child are sisters

In 2014 Gosho Aoyama did an interview with the Da Vinci magazine in which he revealed that "Two mothers will be revealed to be sisters". From then on there as been speculation as to who the sisters might be. Many people jumped in with the idea that the Unknown child, who is assumed to be the Akai family mother would be one of them since she is a recently introduced character of the arc that was happening at the time. Additional speculation began to link Elena as the other sister due to her being mentioned in the same question of the same interview.

In the manga the recent Department Store Stabbing Case, Conan noticed some left over make-up on Haibara's face that made it look like she had the Akai family eye bags. Conan immediately began to suspect that Haibara may be related somehow to the Unknown child. Interestingly enough, even at this stage in the series we have not seen Elena Miyano's eyes for comparison. This may be because she has the Akai family eye bags due to being related.

Other commentary on Sisters Speculation

Gosho has given three different Super Digest Books Q&A answers on the subject.

SDB 80+
Q5: Are Elena Miyano and Shuichi Akai's/Sera's mother sisters?

Q62: Are Sera-san and Haibara cousins?

Quotes

“ Shiho, won't you regret what you are about to do? If so, I'm totally on your side! Well, it will be you nineteenth birthday next time. Bye-bye, honey. Oh yes, maybe it's about time I told you... The truth is, your mom is making a truly terrifying drug at the moment. My lab mates are getting really excited about it, they say it's like a dream drug. Your dad and I are putting all our hopes on it and calling it the Silver Bullet! But in order to complete the drug, your dad and I will have to leave you and your sister. Please understand, Shiho. „

— Part of Elena's message on Shiho's 18th tape.[11]
