## Background[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Eiichi_Yamagishi_(character)&action=edit&section=1 "Edit section: Background")]
In *[Detective Conan](/wiki/Detective_Conan "Detective Conan")*, Eiichi Yamagishi is portrayed as a rather silent person who tries to stay in the background of things and shies away from attention, as seen by his actions, when he tried to remove evidence from an active crime scene on the hunch alone that Yoko could be guilty and was the most vocal about trying not to drag the media's attention to the whole thing, even asking not to call the police when Akiyoshi Fujie's corpse was found.
