Elena Miyano was a biochemist in the Black Organization and apparently Shiho Miyano and Akemi Miyano's mother.[1] Atushi Miyano and Elena Miyano started the APTX 4869 research according to Vermouth.[2] One or both of them worked on the project before Shiho Miyano took over. Both of Elena and Atsushi died for some reason which Pisco called an accident while Shiho was young.
Elena was known as “Hell’s Angel” in the Organization. She might have earned the nickname because of her apparently nice personality which set her apart from the darkness of the rest of the organization. The British Elena is the foreign half of Ai’s parents. She wears glasses and has long hair.
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.[3] 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. [4] 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 was was said was not revealed to the reader. ("You are old enough to hear this … I am really…")
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.
