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

After deciding to partner with Hayashi Shin to run an artist management agency, Yukiko no longer hesitated!

Since I've decided to take this job, I can't just do it haphazardly.

She has never been the type to act without thinking.

Yukiko hasn't been idle these past few days either.

Through her old connections in the entertainment industry, she contacted several owners of small talent agencies and arranged to meet them for coffee and a face-to-face chat.

It was called "chatting," but it was actually a learning trip.

The first person I met was a woman in her forties, with short hair, capable, and speaking crisply: "Ms. Yukiko, have you thought this through? Opening an agency and being an entertainer are completely different things."

"You used to stand in front of the camera and let people take pictures, now you're the one worrying behind the camera."

She took a sip of coffee. "The president of a small firm is basically an all-around housekeeper."

"When artists need to sign contracts, you're in charge of negotiating; when artists need to get work, you're in charge of dealing with clients; if they get scammed, you have to deal with the mess; if the media writes something wrong, you have to step in and handle the public relations; you also have to go out on the street every day to find new talent, rushing up to any promising prospects like you've found gold and handing them your business cards..."

She gave a wry smile. "When I first started my business, I carried all my photography equipment to take promotional photos for celebrities, and after that, I had to edit the photos myself and post them on social media."

"When I get home at night, I collapse on the bed and don't want to move at all, but I still have to think about how to arrange tomorrow's schedule."

Yukiko listened, completely stunned.

"And another thing," another male company president chimed in.

He was a heavy smoker, and with a "click," he lit a cigarette. "You think being a celebrity ends once you're famous? Fame makes things even more tiring!"

"The partners all treat you like a fat sheep to be fleeced, and they even try to drive down your appearance fees. On the other hand, the artists feel that they should get a raise now that they're famous. You're caught in the middle and suffer from both sides."

"During that time, I suffered from insomnia every day, and my hair was falling out in clumps."

He pointed to his thinning hairline, "Look at my hair, it's all from those years."

Yukiko suppressed a laugh and took a sip of her coffee.

After listening to her over afternoon tea, she finally understood.

The president of an entertainment agency sounds glamorous, but in reality, he's just a big housekeeper who has to manage everything.

From discovering new talent to signing contracts, from planning development paths to arranging specific tasks, from public relations crises to financial management, we have to handle everything.

But she wasn't afraid; in fact, she found it rather interesting!

She's been a stay-at-home mom all these years, living a very leisurely life.

She always misses the exciting and glamorous feeling she had back in the entertainment industry.

Now that she has this chance to go back, she doesn't want to miss it.

The next morning, at Cafe 221B.

Lin Shen was sitting by the window, and had just ordered an Americano when he saw someone push open the door and come in.

Yukiko was wearing a light gray fitted suit with a white shirt underneath, high heels, and her hair was neatly tied back. She looked completely different from the disheveled woman she had been that morning.

She dressed like a successful, powerful businesswoman, walked unhurriedly to Lin Shen, pulled out a chair, sat down, crossed her arms, and said in a relaxed tone, "President Lin, have you been waiting anxiously these past few days?"

Lin Shen looked her up and down, then smiled and said, "Yeah, I was getting so impatient waiting for you."

"However, judging from Yukiko's outfit today, it seems I don't need to rush!"

Yukiko snorted and raised her chin: "I've really made up my mind."

"Anyway, I don't have to spend any money. It's just a matter of going there to try being the president. What do I have to be afraid of?"

She paused for a moment, then added, "But let me make this clear first: my salary is very high, and I also get bonuses!"

Lin Shen picked up his coffee cup and smiled gently: "Sure. You can fill in the salary section yourself."

Yukiko was taken aback for a moment: "Huh?"

She blinked, thinking she had misheard. "What do you mean, 'I'll fill it out myself'?"

Lin Shen put down his coffee cup, speaking in an incredibly nonchalant tone: "It means exactly what it says. Whatever you write in the salary section of the contract is what you get."

Yukiko looked at him with some skepticism and tentatively asked, "What if I filled in a monthly salary of ten million yen... plus a fifty percent bonus? You still think that's okay?"

She just wanted to see if Lin Shen would change his expression.

Lin Shen didn't even lift his eyelids: "No problem."

He said calmly, "I'm always very generous to my own people!"

Yukiko's face flushed red instantly.

She quickly turned her head away, giving a cold snort: "What do you mean 'one of us'? Don't go spreading rumors!"

Seeing her embarrassed and annoyed expression, Lin Shen chuckled softly and stopped teasing her.

He's not afraid of Yukiko taking so much; he's afraid she won't take any at all!

He stood up and walked towards the door: "Since you've made up your mind, let's go. Let's sign the contract!"

Yukiko, carrying her bag, followed after them: "Sign the contract? Where do we sign it?"

Lin Shen said calmly, "My lawyer will be coming from my villa."

Yukiko said "Oh" and followed him out the door.

Lin Shen's villa isn't too far from the coffee shop, about a ten-minute drive.

Yukiko sat in the passenger seat, watching the streets outside the window gradually become familiar, and suddenly said, "Hey, this place is very close to my house."

Lin Shen, steering the wheel, casually replied, "There are only one or two good spots!"

Yukiko thought about it and found she couldn't refute it.

The car was parked in the villa's garage.

The two entered the living room, and Yukiko sat down on the sofa. She looked around at the interior decoration, which was simple, clean, and without any unnecessary items.

"Where's your lawyer? When will he be here?" Lin Shen took out his phone and glanced at it: "He's a bit slow, I guess I'll have to wait a while longer."

Yukiko sighed, "How much longer? We can't just sit here like this forever, can we?"

Lin Shen put away his phone, his gaze falling on her, and smiled: "Anyway, we're not in a hurry, and we're just killing time."

"Want to go swimming together?"

Yukiko's eyes lit up slightly.

She thought for a moment, then a calculating smile appeared on her lips: "Going is fine... but it has to be counted in those three hundred hours."

Upon hearing this, Lin Shen couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Okay! No problem!"

Yukiko stood up with satisfaction, went out excitedly, and went home to get her swimsuit.

As she walked, she secretly calculated in her mind: I'll have to swim for several hours later!

This is a rare opportunity, so we must make the most of Lin Shen's "debt"!

Thinking of this, her steps became much lighter.

When she got home, Yukiko opened her closet, took out the white one-piece swimsuit she had been reluctant to wear, and also took out a silk scarf.

She tried it on in front of the mirror and nodded in satisfaction!
