Background
Masaaki Okakura is a minor Black Organization agent, disguised as a parliamentary secretary, very suitable for a NOC sent by the organization to inquire about senior government officials information. His position is not low, but it was not enough to have a codename.[2] He lives in East Tokorozawa, Wada Ward fourth district 19-7, Saitama Prefecture.[3][4]
He carried a memory card containing their entire NOC list, perhaps seeking some sort of insurance as speculated by Vermouth. The organization had grasped the fact and planned to get rid of him shortly. However, after being attacked with a stun gun and kidnapped, he was first stabbed to death with a large knife[5] by Kazuki Honjou, a Chiba certified public accountant, for a personal revenge entirely unrelated to the organization.
On the night of Tanabata two years ago, during a Kyoto huge fire accident caused by a lit cigarette that belonged to a guest on the fifth floor, the business Hotel Vega only elevator's capacity was limited to seven people, but eight trip guests on the sixth floor needed to escape, and Masaaki was one of these. Nanako Honjou, his eventual murderer's kind younger sister, voluntarily stepped out from the elevator and died in place of those seven people due smoke inhalation as another guest, after being unable to escape the flames because the emergency staircase was unusable.
In order to frame Kosuke Mizutani, his sister's boyfriend, as the presumed murderer, the serial killer has unknowingly made off with his purple charm bag, one among the accessories often carried with the memory card. The boss orders Irish to retrieve it before the police catch the culprit and look into the database. Gin has Chianti kill Irish and destroy the memory card, that for Conan could just be the one single trump card that crushes them, with a single shot.
Personality
Unlike most Black Organization members, Masaaki doesn't seem to be a very cruel person and he also has a thick side in obligation. Last year, on the first anniversary of her death, to express Nanako his gratitude for allowing him to board the elevator, he brought anonymously one flowers bouquet to her parents and older brother on the Chiba memorial service day, just like the other six guests.
Appearance
He had the same large stature of Irish.

Others
Kazuki Honjou
The vicious serial killer Kazuki Honjou murdered Masaaki for merely self-satisfaction, blamed him to take up a space in the final elevator that was able to escape the fire that killed his beloved younger sister Nanako. A year ago, when he heard from Mizutani that the artist Sumire was staying in the same hotel on the same floor, he went to her personal new art exhibition to ask some questions. At that time, he happened to overhear Sumire and Ryuzaki talking about the whole story of how Nanako died. But even still, according to Kazuki, that doesn't change the fact that it was because of them boarding that elevator that she died. Kazuki lied to Mizutani that Nanako was chased out of the elevator because he was hoping he would be the one taking revenge on them, but Mizutani didn't have the courage to do so, that's why he had to do it himself. Defeated by Conan and Irish, he is arrested by the Tokyo police and, according to Mizutani, he'll get a death sentence for a wide-scale serial murder case, due also because he didn't turn himself in.
