Rei Furuya

Rei Furuya is an ally of Conan Edogawa in the manga and anime franchise Detective Conan. He is a waiter at the cafe below Mouri Detective Agency, Cafe Poirot. He is also the apprentice of Conan Edogawa's guardian and Ran Mouri's father, Kogoro Mouri, all under the alias Amuro Tooru. His identity is revealed in the Bell Tree Arc, as the Black Organization's member Bourbon. Conan and Haibara continuosly avoided him until later in the Scarlet Arc he is revealed to be a PSB agent infiltrating the Black Organization as a spy. Since then, Furuya has become an ally of Conan Edogawa and often work together in cases, but still not completely trustworthy of each other.
==Background==
Not much is known about Furuya as a PSB agent, as most of his appearances are as the Cafe Poirot waiter and private eye Tooru Amuro, or as the Black Organization operative Bourbon. His first appearance as Tooru Amuro was when he was acting as a private investigator. He meets Conan, Kogoro and Ran while disguised as a waiter in order to help a client with a case. When Sleeping Kogoro appears (actually Conan working in the shadows) and solves the case faster than Amuro he claims he wants to learn from Kogoro, and thus started working at Cafe Poirot.
===Childhood===
As a child, Rei often got into fights. During the Tense Tea Party case, Rei is shown in a flashback sequence with Elena Miyano. During this flashback, it is mentioned by Elena that he often gets injured because of the fights. She calls herself sensei, making it likely she had a doctor-patient relationship with him. During the Black Bunny's Club case, it is revealed that he is half Japanese and natural blonde hair, which was the main reason for him to get bullied and involved in many fights.
Rei's childhood nickname was 'Zero', which has been used by Hiromitsu Morofushi, his childhood friend.
He is known to have ties with other members of the Miyano family. In the Jet-Black Mystery Train case, he mentions that he has met Shiho Miyano's parents, Elena and Atsushi Miyano, as well as her sister Akemi. In his flashback of the Black Bunny's Club case, it is revealed that Akemi led him to Elena's hospital.
==Personality==
Rei has a cheery personality. He is also generous, bringing a plate of sandwiches for the detective agency bought with his money. In more serious situations, he seems to be patient, keeping calm even while others are abusing him. Although somewhat of a "cool type", he does not hide his emotions and is quite expressive. Like other detectives in Detective Conan, he enjoys presenting his deductions about cases to others. Kogoro calls him "effeminate".
Rei has a darker side. He is manipulative, tricking others into performing certain actions so he can gather information. He favors using psychological traps and catching his enemies off-guard. Rei can also be extremely cruel in the pursuit of goals. He planned to run over and hospitalize an elementary school teacher with his car to lure out FBI agents, and he would have allowed a suspect to destroy his exonerating evidence to test Kogoro. Rei alternates between going out of his way to care about the well-being of others and ignoring them when it is inconvenient. As Scar Akai, he saved Conan at the Teito bank heist but neglected to inform Ran and Kogoro later when he noticed that Conan might have been kidnapped by a murderer in Detectives' Nocturne.
Gin says Bourbon has a secretive personality like Vermouth, and that no one can ever guess what he's up to or what he will do. Vodka says that Bourbon hates Shuichi Akai even more than Gin does, presumably because Rei thinks that Akai killed Scotch. Bourbon believes he is the only person capable of killing Akai. Gin said that if Bourbon found out Akai was alive, he would surely boast that his suspicion was correct. Gin and Bourbon probably don't get along and they don't seem to communicate with one another.
Despite his darker side he still has a true Japanese true spirit. He shows mercy even toward an enemy. For example, in Zero's Tea Time Chapter 12, he wanted to make Camel leave to not get into traffic. In chapter 34 he practices with him, and in chapter 44, when Camel saved chief, he thanked him and prepared a glass of water which impressed Camel. Rei is also a gentleman like Takagi, as stated by his friend Wataru date.
==Appearance==
Rei is a handsome young man with dark skin, lighter than, but closer to Heiji's color and has light blonde hair. He wears glasses at first, but it is unknown if he needs them because he was using them to conceal his identity at the time and takes them off midway through the case and has not had them on since. Unlike other Black Organization members, he mostly dresses casually in little black.
