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

Lin Shen pushed open the door of the 221B coffee shop, and the wind chimes hanging on the door made a crisp tinkling sound.

"Welcome!" A clear and familiar female voice came from behind the bar.

Then, Xiaolan, dressed as a maid, peeked out from behind the bar. Upon seeing that it was Lin Shen, a sweet smile instantly bloomed on her face. "President! You're here!"

Lin Shen hummed in agreement, casually replying, "Come and sit down," while closing the door behind him.

Then his gaze fell on Xiaolan, and he paused for a moment.

Xiaolan was wearing a very exquisite maid outfit.

The dress features a black and white color scheme, a fitted cut, and a hemline that falls just inches above the knee. It is paired with white stockings and black round-toed leather shoes.

A bow was tied at the back of her waist, and the neckline was trimmed with delicate lace.

The most striking feature is that the upper part of this maid outfit is designed to be very form-fitting, perfectly outlining her figure, with the lace at the chest subtly visible, making it hard not to take a second look.

Lin Shen's gaze lingered on her for about three seconds.

Xiaolan blushed slightly under his gaze, and somewhat uncomfortably tugged at the hem of her skirt. She quickly changed the subject: "President Lin... what kind of coffee would you like? I'll make it for you!"

Lin Shen withdrew his gaze, his tone returning to its usual casualness: "Just like usual."

As he spoke, he sat down on the high stool in front of the bar.

Xiaolan nodded and turned around to skillfully operate the coffee machine.

As she ground, weighed, and added water, she could feel Lin Shen's gaze on her, and the tips of her ears turned bright red.

Lin Shen leaned against the bar counter, watching her busy figure, and casually asked, "What's with this outfit? I've never seen it before."

Xiaolan paused slightly, her voice tinged with shyness: "This is the employee uniform that Sister Mingmei had someone design specially a few days ago."

"She said it was inspired by the styles of other upscale cafes and maid cafes, and it was just made the day before yesterday."

"This is the first time I've worn it today."

After listening, Lin Shen immediately understood what the surprise Mingmei was talking about was.

He couldn't help but give Mingmei a thumbs up in his mind.

Akemi truly understands him!

Having Xiaolan dressed in such an exquisite maid outfit standing behind the bar making coffee is a feast for the eyes and can instantly lift your spirits!

He nodded in satisfaction, giving it high praise: "Mingmei has good taste, very good!"

Xiao Lan quickly brewed a steaming cup of hand-drip coffee, picked it up, walked around the bar, and stood in front of Lin Shen.

She placed the coffee cup on the bar counter in front of him, but hesitated for a moment and did not straighten up immediately.

Her face was still flushed. After hesitating for two seconds, she finally seemed to muster up her courage and asked softly, "Um... President Lin... would you like... me to feed you?"

Lin Shen was reaching for his coffee cup when he heard this and stopped in his tracks.

He looked up at Xiaolan with some surprise and said, "Feeding me coffee? When did you start offering that service? How come I didn't know?"

Xiaolan's face turned even redder. She lowered her head, her hands nervously gripping the edge of her apron, her voice growing softer and softer: "This was Ms. Mingmei's suggestion a few days ago... She said it's a special set meal service at the store."

What she didn't dare say was that this "special package service" was actually customized by Mingmei specifically for Lin Shen.

At the time, she also found it a bit strange and couldn't quite understand it.

But this is what Akemi told her: "This shop doesn't usually have many customers, and I don't know how long it will stay open."

"If we can get Mr. Lin to come more often and stay for a few more months in this way, we can also earn a few more months' salary."

"It's not easy to find a job these days."

Xiaolan thought about it and realized that Mingmei's words made sense.

She had previously tried many part-time jobs, which were tiring, strenuous, low-paying, and far from home.

In contrast, Lin Shen offered her very generous treatment: easy work, high pay, no impact on her studies, and flexible working hours.

She really wanted to work here for a few more months and save more money to pay back the garden.

And she also comforted herself.

It's just feeding coffee with a spoon, not feeding it with your mouth!!

No big problem!!

Lin Shen looked at Xiao Lan's face, which was full of nervousness and shyness, and couldn't help but smile.

He leaned back in his chair, crossed his arms, striking a pose that suggested he was being treated like royalty, and said with a smile, "Alright. Then let's try out your special package."

Xiaolan responded and turned to get a clean little spoon.

She returned to Lin Shen, picked up the still-steaming cup of coffee, scooped up half a spoonful, blew on it to cool it down, and then carefully brought it to Lin Shen's lips.

Her fingers trembled slightly, and the edge of the spoon touched Lin Shen's lower lip, making a very soft clinking sound.

Lin Shen opened his mouth, took a sip of coffee, and nodded: "Not bad, very well brewed."

"Thank you... thank you, President..." Xiaolan put the spoon away, feeling her heart pounding.

She didn't know why she was so nervous.

She was just sipping coffee, but the air was filled with an indescribable atmosphere that made her feel completely unable to concentrate.

She quickly changed the subject to break the silence that was making her heart race: "President, today is Valentine's Day. Do you have any plans?"

Lin Shen swallowed his coffee and smiled. "Yes, I'm planning to go out and be Santa Claus later, giving out some presents to people."

Xiaolan was taken aback, then blinked her beautiful big eyes: "What gift are you giving me?"

"Courage." Lin Shen's tone remained relaxed and casual, as if he were talking about something trivial.

Xiaolan tilted her head, and although she didn't fully understand, she still sincerely exclaimed, "Wow—that sounds pretty amazing!"

Lin Shen smiled and nodded: "I also think it's quite meaningful."

He put down his coffee cup and asked Xiaolan, "And you? It's Valentine's Day, didn't you go out with your friends?"

He remembered that in the original story, Ran's itinerary for this day was to attend Minagawa Katsuhiko's bachelor party with Sonoko.

Xiaolan smiled sheepishly and said, "There was supposed to be a party... but I thought about it and realized there wouldn't be much point in going. I might as well work here."

She silently added to herself, "Working on holidays means double pay!"

Lin Shen chuckled upon hearing her tone and seeing her "I need to work hard to make money" expression.

Indeed, being in debt is the primary motivation for working people!
