## Background[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Central_Intelligence_Agency&action=edit&section=1 "Edit section: Background")]
The Central Intelligence Agency sent [Ethan Hondou](/wiki/Ethan_Hondou "Ethan Hondou"), to infiltrate the [Black Organization](/wiki/Black_Organization "Black Organization"). Later his daughter, [Hidemi Hondou](/wiki/Hidemi_Hondou "Hidemi Hondou"), who also followed in his footsteps, adopts the alias "Rena Mizunashi" and temporarily joins the Black Organization to introduce an new middleman for Ethan after the previous one was killed. The Organization made her become a television announcer as a cover job. Hidemi Hondou was supposed to then pretend to die in order to leave, but a tracker was planted on her led the Black Organization to Ethan and Hidemi's rendezvous location. Ethan, who had anticipated something like this could happen, prepared in advance a setup that would allow Hidemi to pretend Ethan had interrogated her, but Hidemi had grabbed his gun and killed him. Before committing suicide, Ethan explained to Hidemi what to say to the Org, and he told her not to give up and to complete the CIA mission in his stead. The [boss](/wiki/The_Boss "The Boss") believed Hidemi's story and made her a codenamed agent, Kir. Years after, [Eisuke Hondou](/wiki/Eisuke_Hondou "Eisuke Hondou") searches out Rena Mizunashi, still working as a news reporter, in order to uncover how she is connected with the disappearance of his sister Hidemi.

### Unnamed[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Central_Intelligence_Agency&action=edit&section=3 "Edit section: Unnamed")]

## Relationships analysis[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Central_Intelligence_Agency&action=edit&section=10 "Edit section: Relationships analysis")]
### Black Organization[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Central_Intelligence_Agency&action=edit&section=11 "Edit section: Black Organization")]
It hasn't been stated why or from where the CIA received the directive to infiltrate the [Black Organization](/wiki/Black_Organization "Black Organization"). The Black Organization in general hasn't shown any indication that they specifically suspect the CIA might be investigating them. Vermouth suspected that Kir was a [NOC](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-official_cover "wikipedia:Non-official cover"), but the term is not specific to the CIA.
### FBI[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Central_Intelligence_Agency&action=edit&section=12 "Edit section: FBI")]
Despite being on the same side, the CIA and the [FBI](/wiki/FBI "FBI") have separate secret missions concerning the Black Organization which have not been communicated to one another. Their lack of communication resulted in an unfortunate debacle where an FBI sting to capture [Vermouth](/wiki/Vermouth "Vermouth") backfired and the FBI caught and injured Kir instead. The FBI held Kir thinking she was a member of the Black Organization until the research of Conan and [Shuichi Akai](/wiki/Shuichi_Akai "Shuichi Akai") proved she was in fact a CIA agent. The FBI and Kir successfully managed to come up with a plan to sneak Kir back into the Black Organization, but she had lost her trusted status. In order to regain the Black Organization's trust, she was ordered to kill Shuichi Akai and apparently did so. Kir promised to report information to the FBI after passing it to CIA headquarters.

### Japanese law enforcement[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Central_Intelligence_Agency&action=edit&section=13 "Edit section: Japanese law enforcement")]
The [Japanese law enforcement](/wiki/Law_Enforcement#Police "Law Enforcement") not appear to know about the CIA's mission. Meanwhile, Kir has been willing to murder and commit other illegal acts in order to gain the Black Organization's trust, crimes which merit severe punishment under Japanese law.
