I'm in Detective Conan, and I start with the Grand Theft Auto system.

Lin Shen drove the black sedan, carrying Eri Kisaki, through several streets in the Tokyo night, and finally drove into a quiet residential area.

The car stopped in front of a detached villa. He pressed a button on the remote, and the garage door slowly opened.

He parked the car, turned off the engine, and removed the key in one smooth motion.

Eri Kisaki got out of the car and stood in the driveway of the villa, looking up at the two-story villa with its modern design.

She frowned slightly, a hint of surprise in her voice: "This is...your home?"

Lin Shen locked the car, turned around, and looked at her slightly hesitant expression. He couldn't help but laugh: "What? Worried I'll eat you?"

Eri glanced at him, reached up and pushed up her glasses on the bridge of her nose. The glare from the lenses obscured her eyes, and her tone carried a calm indifference:

"That's not what I'm worried about. I just feel that people who know too much usually don't live long."

"I don't want to be silenced just because I know where you live."

Lin Shen was amused by her earnest way of telling a lame joke. He put his hands in his pockets and walked towards the door, turning back as he went and saying:

"Don't worry, if I really want to silence you, whether you know a lot or a little, the result will be the same."

Eri followed behind him, replying with a forced smile, "You've got quite the big mouth."

Lin Shen pushed open the door, stepped aside to let her in first, and said with a meaningful smile, "Whether you're arrogant or not, you'll know after we've worked together for a while."

Eri Kisaki walked into the entryway, changed into a pair of guest slippers handed to her by Lin Shen, and quickly scanned the room with her eyes.

The interior decoration of the villa is not extravagant, but it is clear that it has been carefully designed. The overall style is simple and modern, with gray and white as the main colors, complemented by some warm-colored soft furnishings, making it look clean and neat without losing warmth.

Lin Shen led her through the corridor and directly to the living room. He pointed to the sofa, indicating that she should sit down, and then went to the tea station, where he skillfully boiled water, warmed the cups, and brewed tea, all in one smooth motion.

A moment later, he came over with a steaming cup of green tea and placed it on the coffee table in front of Eri.

Eri Kisaki glanced down at the clear, bright tea, a hint of surprise on her face. She picked it up, took a gentle sniff, and then smiled, saying:

"President Lin, I didn't expect you to love tea at such a young age."

Lin Shen sat down on the sofa opposite her, carrying his cup of tea, crossed his legs, and spoke in a lazy tone:

"It's about maintaining good health; I want to live a few more years."

Eri Kisaki's lips curled up slightly at his condescending tone, but she didn't dwell on the topic any further.

She put down her teacup, took a silver-white laptop from her briefcase, turned it on, and sat down next to Lin Shen, pointing the screen towards him.

Her expression shifted very naturally, seamlessly transitioning from a relaxed, casual chatty demeanor to a serious and professional one.

Eri Kisaki swiped her fingertips across the touchpad a few times, opening an untitled folder containing several neatly arranged documents.

She cleared her throat and began to explain her money laundering plan to Lin Shen, point by point.

"The first channel is through a shell company registered in the Cayman Islands, which will transfer funds to your account in installments under the guise of consulting fees."

"The advantage is its high level of concealment, while the disadvantage is that the process takes a relatively long time and the amount of each transaction cannot be too large, otherwise it will attract the attention of the bank's risk control system."

As she spoke, she tapped the screen with her finger to switch to the next document: "The second channel is to use an import and export trading company to conduct fund transfers under the guise of raw material procurement."

"This channel is faster than the first one, but it needs a physical business as a cover. I have already found a company that is willing to cooperate and will take a 3% commission."

Lin Shen held the cup of tea in his hand and listened attentively.

If he encounters any technical terms or operational details that he doesn't understand, he will ask directly.

Eri Kisaki would patiently explain it again in more colloquial language.

The entire explanation lasted about forty minutes.

After listening, Lin Shen picked up his teacup, raised it to Eri Kisaki, and showed a look of genuine approval and satisfaction on his face:

"Attorney Fei, professionals are truly different."

He took a sip of tea, then put down the cup, his tone carrying a decisive trust: "All my money is yours."

Eri Kisaki also picked up her half-cooled cup of tea and gently clinked it against his cup, producing a crisp clinking sound.

She took a sip of tea, then put down the cup, giving him a heads-up beforehand: "Just so you know, this is my first time doing something like this. Just in case something goes wrong..."

Before she could finish speaking, Lin Shen waved his hand, interrupting her: "Don't worry. As long as you don't run off with my money, everything else is negotiable."

After hearing this, Eri Kisaki's gaze lingered on Lin Shen's face for a moment.

She read a clear subtext into those words: what he couldn't tolerate most was betrayal.

As long as you don't betray the other party, everything is negotiable.

But if someone gets their hands dirty, the consequences will likely be more than just money can solve.

Eri Kisaki didn't feel uncomfortable at all; on the contrary, she felt more at ease. A person who knows their bottom line is much easier to work with than someone who is all talk and no action.

She gave a genuine smile, picked up her teacup, and took another sip: "President Lin, I'm relieved to hear you say that."

Lin Shen finished the rest of his tea in one gulp, put down the cup, stood up and stretched: "For the specifics, just contact Mingmei. She'll handle all the details with you."

Eri nodded, closed her laptop, put it back in her bag, and stood up. "Understood."

After the business was finished, the atmosphere became noticeably more relaxed.

Eri closed her laptop and put it aside, picked up her teacup, took a sip, and then sighed softly.

She put down her teacup, her voice tinged with a sigh that was hard to define as either self-reproach or helplessness: "Alas, I am such a terrible mother."

"Such a big thing happened to my daughter, and I didn't know anything about it."

Lin Shen leaned back on the sofa and casually replied, "Attorney Fei, please don't say that."

"Xiaolan often praises you in front of me, saying you're exceptionally capable, one of the top lawyers in the industry, the kind everyone praises."

Upon hearing this, Eri Kisaki shook her head with a wry smile: "What's the use of being so powerful?"

"So busy that he can't even take care of his own daughter."

Her tone carried a strong sense of disappointment.
