This is normal, though. Although the original owner was a rich second-generation, he was timid and cowardly, and did not like to participate in group activities, especially around the time he left Teitan High School.

Everyone has just entered high school and is a stranger to each other. This is a crucial period for rebuilding friendships, a situation that everyone is familiar with.

When everyone enters high school at the same time and becomes classmates, they tend to develop a deeper bond.

If a few months later, another transfer student arrives, having missed the initial period, it will be much more difficult for them to integrate into the group.

This is the situation that Genda River is facing.

You haven't come for half a year, and it's during this crucial time in your first year of high school. By the time you come back, everyone has their own close friends, and naturally, they'll distance themselves from you.

Unlike Shinichi Kudo, who shrunk in his second year of high school and had already established a stable relationship, so even if he was away for a long time, people's feelings for him would not change much.

After listening attentively to several classes, I must say that Teitan High School has a very strong teaching staff.

These substitute teachers are all quite skilled. Although he didn't become a genius overnight because of his transmigration, his memories and knowledge from his previous life actually made learning much easier.

Just like many adults who, when they go back to learn some elementary school knowledge, find it very simple. It's not that the knowledge itself has become simpler, but rather that a person's knowledge has increased, their understanding has expanded, they can make connections from many angles, and they are far more patient than children, allowing them to better understand the questions.

Therefore, although Genda Gawa was not a genius, the learning difficulty was actually greatly reduced.

Moreover, at this time, he discovered another function of the sophon: knowledge analysis.

Although Zhizi couldn't directly implant knowledge into his brain, it was practically like having a portable Baidu, making it a cheating device!

If you were to use Zhizi to cheat on an exam, it would be incredibly easy. It could provide the most standard answers to any question on math, physics, chemistry, history, geography, or biology.

Even with Chinese literature, the standard answer can be easily calculated, and a standard article of several hundred words can be generated with ease.

It can be said that with Tomoko around, Genda River can transform into a genius at any time and become the most terrifying demon king in the school in terms of grades!

But that would be too boring. Relying on the system to cheat can only fool others, not yourself. Only what you truly control is yours.

In several consecutive classes, this student, who hadn't attended school for half a year, actually listened attentively, and several of the teachers noticed the change in him.

His classmates who followed him also noticed this.

"Why has this guy suddenly started studying seriously? That's really strange. Is he going to work hard? That won't do!"

A tall young man sitting in the last row frowned slightly.

There are people like this everywhere. They don't work hard themselves, and when they see others working hard, instead of striving to catch up, they want to stop them from working hard.

In the mental world, an image appeared in front of Zhizi. The image was like a monitoring room, divided into dozens of lenses, and each lens showed the expression of a student.

"Micro-expression analysis complete. These individuals show clear hostility towards Mr. Gendagawa; we need to remind him to be careful."

This is what makes Zhizi so terrifying; if she wanted to, she could be a comprehensive, all-encompassing surveillance device, able to monitor the every move of everyone around her.

If it weren't for the damage to its computing power, the Sophon's surveillance range would be all of humanity; now it's just monitoring a classroom, which is quite simple.

The day passed quickly, and the students packed their bags, eager to leave the classroom. In Japan's campuses, where club culture is prevalent, club activities are even more important than classes.

Every day after school, many students stay behind to participate in club activities, which has almost become a tradition.

"Please don't leave yet, everyone. I have something to announce."

Just then, Genda River suddenly spoke, and then, to everyone's surprise, he quickly ran to the podium.

"Dear classmates, starting today, I, Gendagawa, will also become a detective and begin my detective career. In other words, from today onwards, I am a detective!"

Chapter Thirteen: A Request That Began with Finding a Cat

I've finished speaking. Who's in favor? Who's against?

Standing on the podium, Genda Gawa coughed, waking everyone present as if from a dream, and they all showed incredulous expressions.

For a long time, Gendagawa's image to everyone has remained the same: timid and cowardly, or you could say he has social anxiety and doesn't fit in.

Now he's developed social arrogance, going up to the stage to announce things to everyone, and seems to really enjoy being the center of attention. The difference is just too great, isn't it?

More importantly, he actually wants to be a detective?

The big guy who had been sitting behind Genda Gawa burst into laughter:

"Gentagawa-kun, don't make me laugh! You've always been a loser, and you actually want to be a detective? Are you sick? If you are, I know several famous doctors. Do you want me to help you contact them?"

The mocking tone was palpable; this was a blatant attempt to attract hatred. Such a character, jumping out to take the beating, is quite common in any story.

After this guy started it, the others also reacted one after another, and sarcastic remarks followed one after another.

"Kameda is right. Being a detective requires talent. Look at Kudo from the next class. He loved deduction since he was a child and helped the police solve many major cases, which is how he became a famous detective. You probably don't have that kind of talent, do you?"

So his real name is Kameda. No wonder, at most he could only be a squad leader.

In the world of Detective Conan, detectives hold a very high status, especially famous detectives, whose status is even more incredible.

Without official status, freely entering and exiting crime scenes is commonplace; they can even easily gain the trust of the police and obtain intelligence from police officers of different levels as if it were an everyday occurrence.

It’s simply outrageous!

However, in the world of Detective Conan, these things are indeed true, and the police seem to take it all for granted, just as detectives are unofficial police officers who enjoy the same treatment as rehired experts.

However, this also leads to fierce competition among detectives, with a world of difference between an unknown detective and a famous one.

Just like a certain celebrity said, there are many types of models, and the same goes for detectives; there are many types as well.

"Genda-kun, I don't know what kind of shock you've encountered lately, but you need to face reality. Being a detective isn't something just anyone can do, and besides, I've really never seen such a fat detective before."

The guy named Kameda laughed loudly again.

Genda Kawa just rolled his eyes. Never seen the fat detective before? Then you don't know what Lord Di is. This guy is really hateful. If Yuanfang were by his side, he would have shown him right then and there what it means to get off his horse.

"Kameda-kun, just because you can't do something doesn't mean I can't. Don't judge others by your own standards. There's a famous saying that's perfect for you."

Kameda was taken aback, and subconsciously asked, "What famous quote?"

Genda sneered, "Those who are jealous of you but can never surpass you will spare no effort to smear you. This saying couldn't be more fitting for you."

After thinking for a moment, Master Roshi immediately understood the meaning of those words. What did it mean to be jealous, yet unable to surpass him? Did it mean that he was not as good as him?

He was about to roar and rush over, but was quickly pulled back by the surrounding classmates. If he fought in the classroom, he could be expelled.

"You'd better remember this!"

After uttering those harsh words, he slunk away. Genda Chuan sneered, not taking it to heart. If he's jealous of even trash, what kind of mindset does he have? He'll never even be able to eat four dishes in his entire life!

Actually, if possible, Genda Gawa wouldn't want to use such a childish method to announce that he had become a detective, but he really had no other choice.

He has no resources right now, no one to help him promote himself, and no channels to make his voice heard. The simplest way for him to quickly make a name for himself at school is to gain recognition.

Don't underestimate the publicity ability of students, especially at Teitan High School, where many students come from wealthy and influential families. Once they become famous at school, their influence can expand rapidly.

Everyone was shocked by Genda's transformation, and his confrontation with Kameda had earned him some people's praise.

This guy is very jealous and has had many conflicts with his classmates in the past. Seeing him get his comeuppance today, many people secretly applauded.

As a result, many people gathered around him and asked him what kind of commissions he accepted.

"Given that I've only recently become a detective and don't have much of a reputation yet, I'm willing to take on any case as long as it's not too outrageous."

Although he really wanted to take on big cases right away, such as murder and kidnapping.

Although his reasoning ability is average, he is familiar with the various tropes in the Conan world. He may not be able to apply them verbatim, but learning from them can be very helpful.

Most importantly, I have Zhizi.

When science fails, there's Conanology; when reasoning fails, there's always a cheat code.

Understanding cheat codes instantly makes solving cases incredibly easy!

"Genda-kun, I have a request, but it's a very small one, and I'm not sure if it's too presumptuous."

Genda River's spirits lifted. He had just received a commission. Sure enough, as a chuunibyou (delusional) teenager, he found business opportunities everywhere in this hot-blooded school in a crime-ridden city.

"Oh, it's Yoshiko-san. It's alright. I'm just a novice detective. I never refuse a case, no matter how small."

The girl who spoke somewhat shyly was named Fujita Yoshiko. She was a very tall girl with long, straight black hair. She spoke timidly, wore large black-rimmed glasses, had small, rosy lips, and a small red mole on her pointed chin.

High school girls already understand the importance of dressing up.

Many girls in the class, if not dressed extravagantly, at least wore light makeup. But this Fujita Yoshiko always covered her face with her long hair and wore big black-rimmed glasses, sealing away her good looks.

Little did the girl know that her appearance had been fully revealed during Zhizi's examination.

A stunningly beautiful face appeared on the screen. The girl's features were delicate and refined, her large eyes seemed to speak volumes, and her small nose made one want to pinch it.

However, Tomoko pursed her lips, deciding not to let Gendagawa see the girl's true appearance. Detectives need effort and focus; women would only slow down the speed of solving cases.

However, Tomoko was unaware that Gendagawa, based on his extensive experience, had already made an assessment of the girl.

"Looking beyond the surface, this girl is definitely not ugly; in fact, she's quite beautiful. It's just that her appearance is obscured by her attire. I just don't know if she genuinely doesn't know how to dress herself, or if she's doing it on purpose?"

After a pause, he hurriedly asked, "So what exactly is the request? Could you describe it in detail?"

The girl wrinkled her nose slightly, lowered her head, and pursed her lips.

"My cat is lost. I've been looking for it for days but haven't found it. I don't have much money, so the other detectives won't take my case. I'm begging you, Genda-kun!"

"Huh...? Looking for a cat? Is this my first request?"
