3rd person POV:

In a place called the Velvet Room, (Y/n) was sitting across a strange man.

Strange man: Welcome to the Velvet room. A place between mind and matter, the real world, and another...

Strange man: My name is Igor. And that there is my newest assistant, Mary.

Mary: Hey...

(Y/n): Uh... Huh... Why am I here?

Igor: I've summoned you here because your world is in danger, and you have the potential of being a wildcard.

(Y/n): Ah I see... What?

Igor: To put it simply, I require your services as a detective.

(Y/n): Okay...

Igor: I'll go into more detail once you awaken to your power.

Igor:(chuckle) Until next time...

Mary: Bye or whatever...

(Y/n)'s vision blurred until all he saw was darkness. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and woke up in bed.

(Y/n):... What a strange dream.

(Opening theme)

(04/04/2XXX: Morning)

After getting dressed for school, (Y/n) made his way downstairs where he assumed he would find Mana, instead, he found a sticky note on the fridge that said...

"Had to go to work. Help yourself to the fridge and get to school"- Mana.

(Y/n): Help myself to the fridge? Don't mind if I do.

He opens the fridge to see it as barren as a desert. The only thing in it was two cans of beer and a box of half-eaten curry with a logo that said, Leblanc on it.

With little option, he tried the curry, and it was still edible while also delicious.

After eating, he grabbed his leather briefcase and began walking to school. From the house to school, it was a 30-45 minute walk.

As he wandered to school he was able to see a little bit of the town. He could now say for certain that Jintou was weird.

He saw little children walk some kind of hybrid pets, like a bear cat hybrid creature. In a group of pigeons, he noticed how one of them had a strange spot pattern.

Animal were just one thing, but the problem caught his attention quickly as well. (Y/n) noticed how the town folk had a wide assortment of hair color that you wouldn't commonly find in this region of the country. When living in the city, (Y/n) would notice how people subtly stare at someone with ginger hair, but no one even bats an eye here.

(Y/n):(mind) I'm being paranoid... It's not the 20th century, people don't care about someone else's hair, and the animals surely have an explanation.

Continuing his way to school, he ultimately arrives at school. Before he got on school grounds, some guy bumped into his shoulder from behind, falling to the ground in front of him while dropping all the books he was carrying.

The guy seemed as old as (Y/n), but based on his body language it was clear that he was a really timid person. The fluffy scarf he had was a defining feature he had.

Guy: I-I I'm so sorry! It was an accident!

(Y/n): It's fine, just watch where you're going.

The guy nodded then quickly shuffled to gather all his fallen belongings. Deciding to help, (Y/n) crouches down to help gather his stuff.

While picking stuff up, he notices a card sticking out of a biology book. The card had a kiss mark on it, left by a woman with lipstick, presumably. (Y/n) was also able to make out 6 digits of a phone number.

The guy noticing, quickly grabs his stuff and runs off in a worried hurry.

(Y/n):... A shy player, huh? There's definitely something off about this place.

After getting inside, he followed the map he was given to help him find his way. Eventually, he met up with his headteacher, Shara.

She told him to wait outside until she calls him in. Classes then started and he waited when Shara called him, he entered.

Shara: Class this is our new transfer student.

(Y/n): I'm (Y/n) Conan... Nice to meet you.

Shara: Would you like to write your name on the chalkboard?

(Y/n): Not particularly.

There was a light chuckle somewhere in the class.

Shara: Well um... How about you sit in the far right corner?

(Y/n): Sure.

He began walking to his seat.

(Y/n):(mind) No one questioned my last name... Better than my other schools... That includes my forgettable introduction.

(Y/n):(mind) The teacher bothers me tho... Her breath smell like alcohol, specifically whiskey, dads... Favorite...

Ignoring the blond that sat in front of his desk, he took a seat, took out his notebook and pen, then waited for the teacher to teach today's subject, evolution.

Observing his classmates subtly, he notices the guy from before was in the same class. Another person who stood out was the blond in front of him who seemed to glance at him for a moment.

As the lesson continues, (Y/n) notices something out of the window. Somebody in a penguin mascot outfit run across the road towards school with a plastic bag. Suddenly a car turns the corner extremely fast and it seems that the person in the penguin outfit is going to get hit.

Color then seems to bleed out of the world until everything is black and white. The person in the penguin mascot outfit is the only one with color. The car that was about to hit him then bounced back upon impact with them like someone jumping on a trampoline.

(Y/n): The hell!?

The person and car then continued as nothing had happened.

Knowing that his sudden shout might have upset the teacher, he turns his head back to class ready to apologize only to see everyone in class had been replaced with some kind of monster.

(Y/n):!?

The lesson continued like everybody was normal. (Y/n) couldn't understand what was going on.

He calmed himself once he heard a voice.

???: Look at the odd one out...

Looking at the teacher, (Y/n) saw, that she was still normal, except for the red leather mask she wore on her face.

Closing and rubbing his eyes, he opened them to see that everything was now back to normal. Class then ended and everyone began to leave while (Y/n) tried to comprehend what just happened.

Shara: Conan, Taja, can I have a moment?

(Y/n) and the blond that sat in front of him then walked up to the teacher.

Shara: Um, Conan, this is Akemi Taja.

(Akemi Taja/age: 17/ occ: Student)

(Y/n): It's nice to meet you.

Akemi: I know.

(Y/n):(mind) Already off to a good start.

Shara: Akemi, do you mind showing him around the school?

Akemi:(sigh) Sure, I guess...

Shara: Conan, I'm supposed to give you my number in case you need to contact me.

(Y/n): Seems reasonable.

Shara then takes a strip of paper, writes a few numbers, then realizes halfway that she made a mistake, so she scribbled it the wrote it correctly. Handing it to (Y/n), he pockets it.

Shara: Please do not prank call me.

(Y/n): I'll only use it for truth, justice, and if I need help with my homework.

Akemi: Can we go?

(Y/n): Lead the way.

Akemi then lazy showed (Y/n) around the school. She never went into great detail, they would walk past something, she would say what it is then continued on her way.

Whenever (Y/n) attempted to talk to her, she would ignore his question and check herself in the reflection of her phone.

While they walked around school, (Y/n) observed how almost every other student played a "game" with her. A student would go up to her and ask her if she would want to hang out with them, and would usually burst out laughing when she told them no or other vulgar answers.

This was obviously a common occurrence and some kind of inside joke.

Akemi: That's it... If you get lost find a map.

(Y/n): Know anything about the strange things that happen here?

Akemi: You want gossip, go ask any of the cheap whores in the school.

Guy: Um...?

The guy with the scarf from earlier walked up to them.

Akemi: Ryotaro, what do you want?

Ryotaro: Uh, hey A-Akemi...

Turning towards (Y/n), he then introduces himself.

Ryotaro: H-hello, I'm Ryotaro Nogami.

(Ryotaro Nogami/age: 17/ occ: Student)

Ryotaro: Conan-Kun, can I speak to you in private? I-If you don't mind, of course!

(Y/n): Sure.

Akemi: He's your problem now.

She wanders off.

Ryotaro then leads (Y/n) outside and to a storage shed. Staying behind it so as to stay out of sight of every, Ryotaro then looks at (Y/n).

(Y/n): So what do you want to talk about? Or is this some kind of mugging?

Ryotaro: N-no! Earlier today... How much did you see?

Taking a moment to think, he recalled the phone number with the kiss mark on it, between one of his books.

(Y/n):... Enough.

Ryotaro:(gulp)

Ryotaro: What does that mean?

(Y/n) looked around, then leaned against the storage shed.

(Y/n): You're in a relationship with Miss Tekol, aren't you?

Ryotaro:!?

Ryotaro: N-no, I'm not!

(Y/n): Yesterday, I heard a girl say that a teacher and student were dating. A rumor, yes, however, it's seeming more true by the moment.

(Y/n): Earlier today, I saw that card with the phone number and kiss mark, between your biology book.

Ryotaro: S-so?

(Y/n): Tekol, is a biology teacher. She probably snuck that card in your book so you could call her.

Ryotaro: She could have accidentally placed it there!

(Y/n): Then why did you panic when you noticed I saw it? Why did you ask me, how much did I see rather than clearing up the misunderstanding?

Ryotaro: I-I...

(Y/n): But I might just be grasping at straws... However, it was Tekol herself that gave it away.

Ryotaro: S-she told you!?

(Y/n): Not on purpose. She was supposed to give me her number in case I had to ask about homework or something.

He takes out the sheet of paper she gave her.

(Y/n): She accidentally started writing, what I assume is her private number first, but then stopped halfway when she realized her mistake.

(Y/n): She just drew lines on it to scribble it out, but it's still eligible enough to make out.

(Y/n): The first 5 digits match the first five digits on the card I saw.

(Y/n): That's too much of a coincidence for me. So... Reveal your lies and emit the truth!

Ryotaro: I...It...

Ryotaro: Noooooooo!

He runs off, teary-eyed, into the storage shed.

(Y/n):!?

(Y/n): Ah crap... I got a little too into it, and came off too strongly, didn't I?

(Y/n): I better calm him down before something happens.

Walking to the entrance of the shed, he tried to open it but found it was locked.

(Y/n):(mind) Seriously?

(Knock, knock, knock)

(Y/n): Ryotaro! I open up.

Ryotaro:(in the shed) N-no! It's not true!

(Y/n): Listen, I don't plan on telling anyone or blackmailing you. Let's talk this out!

Ryotaro:(in the shed) No no no!

(Y/n): You know there are other words in the dictionary.

(Crash)

Ryotaro:(in the shed) W-what was-

Ryotaro:(in the shed) GHAAAAA!

(Crash)

(Y/n):?!

(Y/n): Ryotaro?

(Y/n): Ryotaro?!

(Y/n): What happened?!

He got no response.

(Y/n): Damn it all... Okay, move back from the door, I'm busting it open!

Running into the door, (Y/n) attempted to break it open. On his third attempt, he broke through the door.

(Y/n): Ow! Finally.

On his left, he saw Ryotaro who had fallen on top of a few boxes.

(Y/n): Are you okay?

Ryotaro simply pointed to the other side of the room, unable to form any words.

Looking at where he was pointing, (Y/n) saw several fallen over boxes and the penguin mascot he saw earlier. The penguin person was on their back, unable to get up.

(Y/n):!?

Ryotaro: I-it's the haunted mascot!

(Y/n):?

After a little bit of struggling, the mascot head popped off and roll across the floor.

The costume then twitched a bit. And a penguin popped out of the costume.

Ryotaro/(Y/n): Penguin?!

The penguin then looked at the two.

Penguin:...... What's up motherfuckers?

Ryotaro/(Y/n): AAAAHHHHHH!

Penguin: AAAAAAHHHHHHH!

Ryotaro/Penguin/(Y/n): AAAHHHHHH!
