The Shibaura-Kohnan Area (芝浦港南地区 ,*Shibaura Kōnan-chiku*[?](/wiki/Help:Japanese "Help:Japanese")) is a real area composed of several districts (mainly the eponymous towns of [Shibaura](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shibaura "wikipedia:Shibaura") and [Kohnan](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C5%8Dnan,_Tokyo "wikipedia:Kōnan, Tokyo")) in the south of the [Minato](/wiki/Minato "Minato") Ward of [Tokyo](/wiki/Tokyo "Tokyo"). The [Kohnan High School](/wiki/Kohnan_High_School "Kohnan High School") named after it is fictional, though. Part of [Shinagawa Station](/wiki/Shinagawa_Station "Shinagawa Station") is located in Shibaura-Kohnan, which later plays an important role in [Sato's Father Case](/wiki/Volume_27#Sato.27s_Father_Case "Volume 27") from *[Detective Conan](/wiki/Detective_Conan "Detective Conan")*.
