Plot overview
To keep Shinichi's cover as a child, Agasa immediately enrolls Conan in first grade at Teitan Elementary School, where she introduces him and is laughed at by other children for his weird name. She wants to go spend first period showing Conan around the school but, with their great surprise, all red for her behind him, he pleases her to just start class. Bored by the simple curriculum, during physical education after math lesson, Conan decides to test the new gadget Agasa gave to him earlier, using moderate power while he is playing soccer. To her and his classmates' shock, the soccer ball shoots through the goal net and knocks over a large tree.
After she got married and gave up her job, she was replaced by Sumiko. Unlike her, the new teacher is initially overly strict and is disliked by the students, until Conan and the Detective Boys caught her practicing for a parent teacher conference after hours. Just like her before, Sumiko is now well liked by her students.
