Here's an alternate link for the Chinese translation of SDB60+. I'll use the second one because it seems to be the source (the translation is the same anyway). There're some questions I don't quite understand but they're the more unimportant ones. Most are very trivial/useless questions so I won't go into detail.

Boss
(Note: Not part of the interview above but presumably also comes from SDB60+)
Inside the Org., there is a boss who is called "That person". This person hasn't appeared in front of Conan. Their name and gender are still mysteries. The only known information is "dialing the Boss' email address will create the sound of 'Nanatsu no Ko'".
Okay so I need a second (and probably third) opinion with this one. Technically, the line's literal meaning (at least judging from the Chinese translation) is "hasn't appeared in front of Conan". However, I wonder if we can simply assume that there aren't any ambiguities behind it. Therefore, I'll copy the original text over here (this is hidden content that only registered users can see, but you can check the book if you've bought it):
組織には、「あの方」と呼ばれるボスが存在する事がわかっている。コナンの前に姿を現した事はなく、名前も性別も謎。ボスのメールアドレスを打つと『七つの子』の音階になる事だけは確実な情報だ。
Is there any chance what the publisher wanted to say is "the boss hasn't reveal their identity/true color in front of Conan", rather than "the boss is someone Conan has never met face-to-face", because the latter will rule out 98% of the cast. Also note that this is just a summary of the boss in the book, not what Gosho said directly.
Here's an alternate link for the Chinese translation of SDB60+. I'll use the second one because it seems to be the source (the translation is the same anyway). There're some questions I don't quite understand but they're the more unimportant ones. Most are very trivial/useless questions so I won't go into detail.

Yes:
For the Meitantei Zukan (the Detective Picture Book at the end of the volumes), your assistants are the one who choose them, right?
What do you like about Conan?
Answer : The fact that it gives me money.
I would like a case in Kyoto! Inspector Ayanokoji! An event in Kansai where we could meet with Aoyama-sensei would be great! Please! Kansai people would be more interested in Conan!
Will Kid appear in next year's movie?
A : Are you a seer or what?!...
Kid will appear?! That means that the teaser at the end of movie 18 with the sunflowers is related to Gogh's drawing or an artwork?
Kid vs Kyougoku was a special event, and it won't reappear... It's a shame. Since there hasn't been any Kid vs Heiji, I would like to see one.
Are Yukiko and Sera's mum sisters ?
A : Yukiko isn't the sister, but...
Has Azusa got a boyfriends?
A : Non.
I remember an anime original where a boy who seemd to have feelings for Azusa appeared, but he only appeared once.
Has Conan discovered Kid's real identity?
A : ... It would be catastrophic if he discovered it.
I don't want Amuro and Haibara to die.
A : Amuro and Haibara... I would like these two to live... What's going to happen...
Are you going to write a story about how Shinichi and Ran first met?
A : I would like to!
OK, so let me explain something.
We've translated, Tynaria-chan and I, from this link : conanforum.org/index.php?page=Th ... post816215
It seems that the fans who wrote the interview on Internet added their own comment, like, after Aoyama's "I would like to!" in the last question, they wrote "It looks like they have met before elementary school...?". So please excuse me if I mixed up Aoyama's answers and the fans's comments.
