"Ah," Shogo Somei introduced belatedly, "This is my staff Maiko Kuzumi, who is temporarily in charge of the program with me."

"programme?"

Chi Chufeng knew from the business card that it was to produce a TV show, and thought it was a commission.

However, this kind of production company is probably not doing well. Can it afford my commission fee?

"Yes," Facing Chi Chufeng's questioning gaze, Somei Shogo was a little embarrassed and hurriedly explained, "It is a special program cooperating with Toto TV. It has full contact with celebrities 24 hours a day. It will be put on the prime time at [-] o'clock on Monday evening. It will be broadcast soon.”

"Do you want to keep filming me 24 hours a day?" Chi Chufeng asked in surprise.

"That's right, there are already many programs that interview detectives personally, so I thought if I could film Lord Chichu..."

Chi Chufeng curled his lips, thinking about the scene where the camera followed him 24 hours a day, it seemed a little too private...

Moreover, it is said to be a 24-hour full contact, and the required materials will not be shot in just one day, which is simply a big trouble.

Chi Chufeng thought for a while and then refused: "I don't want to participate in such a program for the time being."

Shogo Somei looked disappointed, but still asked politely: "Well, I heard that you also run an entertainment company, and Yoko Okino is in your company. Can we invite her to participate in our show?"

"Invite her?" Chi Chufeng thought about it and said, "Aren't you the famous detective you always invite? What do you ask Okino Yoko for?"

Shogo Somei said with some embarrassment: "That's it, we planned to invite Detective Mori to participate in our show, but he said he would only agree to it if Yoko Okino participated."

Chi Chufeng's face suddenly darkened and he looked at the other party coldly: "I don't like people plotting against my woman. I hope you won't have such thoughts in the future. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."

Somei Shogo was startled and hurriedly stood up and bowed, "I'm sorry, that's not what I meant. I was just asking."

"Go away." Chi Chufeng waved his hand.

Somei Shogo walked out in a hurry.

Kuzumi Maiko also bowed and said: "I'm sorry, Lord Chichu, our president didn't mean that. Please forgive me."

Chi Chufeng looked at her and said calmly: "What big things can a man like this achieve by relying on women to attract guests?"

Kuzumi Maiko's lips moved, but without saying anything, she said goodbye and left.

Chapter 526: Using the name of Onmyoji?

At the Maori Detective Agency, Uncle Maori couldn't help but feel dizzy when he looked at the young man and woman in front of him.

"Detective Mori?" Somei Shogo hesitated to wake up the dazed uncle, "How are you thinking?"

"Oh," the uncle continued to read the plan book casually while drinking the coffee made by Xiaolan, "Mouri Kogoro's full exposure to 24 hours... The program is indeed a good program, but do you want to follow me 24 hours a day?"

"Don't worry," Shogo Somei said quickly when he saw that there seemed to be a scene. "If you think you don't want the camera to film it, you can ask us to remove it. We will also let you check it before playing it. We can cut out the NG parts."

"But..."

The uncle looked bitter and was about to say something when Conan and Xiaolan, who were watching the show next to them, discussed: "But I haven't received any commissions recently, right, Sister Xiaolan?"

"Well," Xiaolan agreed, regardless of her uncle's expression, "During the day, I drink beer and listen to live horse racing, and at night, I play mahjong. It would be difficult to do a personal interview."

"No, no job?"

"If anything, it's just a coincidence now."

Everyone's eyes were focused on Uncle Maori, who was sweating profusely. In embarrassment, the uncle was busy typing and glared at Conan.

"Well," Shogo Somei interrupted, "Detective Mori, I wonder if you've seen it, Miss Yoko will also participate in this show..."

Kuzumi Maiko was startled when she heard this, and quickly glanced at Somei Shogo.

Somei Shogo had no reaction.

"Really, really?" Uncle Maori stared wide-eyed, "Miss Yoko is here too?"

"Yes, you can see it at the program meeting."

"I promise!"

Before Somei Shogo could finish speaking, the uncle stood up abruptly, eagerly seizing the opportunity.

Downstairs, in the car.

Kuzumi Maiko asked Somei Shogo: "What are you talking about? We didn't have an appointment with Miss Okino Yoko at all!"

"It doesn't matter, I've already thought about it." Somei Shogo said, "I will use the name of Lord Akachu to invite Miss Okino Yoko to participate in the show. I think Lord Akachu is so busy that he will not pay attention to the company often."

"I'm afraid it's not possible to deceive Master Chichu." Kuzumi Maiko was a little worried.

"Our filming is very fast. All we need is Okino Yoko to show up for an hour or two, have a meal and chat with the Maori detective. In short, anything is possible."

Shogo Somei said excitedly, "With Detective Mori and Miss Okino Yoko, this show will definitely have high ratings."

"But," Kuzumi Maiko asked, "What about Ms. Okino Yoko's appearance fee?"

"Of course it's installment payment. Miss Okino Yoko should be able to understand our difficulties." Shogo Somei pointed to the billboard on the street, "If it doesn't work, I will go there."

"You can't do that."

Kuzumi Maiko was shocked when she saw it, because it was a loan billboard for a financial company, and Kuzumi Maiko meant to borrow high-interest debt to turn over money.

"It doesn't matter. Just pay it back within a month. There is enough time. I believe that these two celebrities, Detective Mori and Miss Okino Yoko, can bring high ratings to our program."

Somei Shogo said it easily, but his tone was still a little heavy.

There are some things that he has been hiding from Maiko for a long time. In fact, he has already borrowed a loan shark.

In the room, Chi Chufeng frowned slightly.

It's really brave to use the name of Onmyoji.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly and he smiled coldly.

The next day, in the program production company, Somei Shogo said to Kuzumi Maiko: "Mr. Nakame asked you to go to his apartment at five o'clock."

Kuzumi Maiko frowned and asked, "Isn't it scheduled to go to the apartment with Detective Mori at six o'clock in the evening?"

Somei Shogo didn't dare to look into Maiko Kuzumi's eyes and said, "Maybe you have something to prepare if you go early."

Kuzumi Maiko nodded.

Somei Shogo returned to his office, made a phone call and said, "I have done as you asked, can my show be on? I have invested my entire family fortune, and 457 also borrowed loan sharks."

The middle-aged man on the opposite side smiled strangely and said: "Don't worry, as long as you satisfy me, I will let your program go."

Outside the door, Kuzumi Maiko covered her mouth, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.

At around five o'clock in the evening, the clouds were overcast and it suddenly started to rain heavily.

Nakame Reitzer Apartment Building.

As soon as Kuzumi Maiko got on the elevator, Nakame Raiza excitedly started talking through the doorbell system.

"Ah, Miss Maiko, you are here."

"Yes."

"Did you come alone? The wind and rain were so strong, it was hard on the road,"

"Fortunately."

"What kind of drink would you like, Miss Maiko? I'll prepare it for you. I have it here..."

"Coffee, any coffee."

"Miss Maiko, do you like desserts? All ladies should like them, right? I went to Ginza before and bought the most popular cheesecake. Do you like it?"

"Whatever, I'm here."

"Huh? Ah, I'll open the door right now.".

Chapter 527: I was so scared that I jumped off the building

Nakame Raize welcomed Kuzumi Maiko into the room.

"Miss Maiko, please, please come in quickly. Ah, you are really the only one. Come, this is my reception room. Please sit down for a moment and I will serve you coffee right now."

"No need, Mr. Nakame Reitzer, let's get straight to the point. Mr. Mori will be here in less than an hour."

"It's okay, don't worry about these few minutes."

Nakame Reitzer pointed to the snacks on the table, "Miss Maiko, the coffee is being ground. Please wait a moment. This is the cake I just bought. You can try it."

"Thank you." Kuzumi Maiko said politely, but did not make a move.

Nakame Raize frowned and asked, "Miss Maiko, why don't you eat it? It's delicious."

"I have no appetite, Mr. Nakame. All I can think about right now is the show."

"Don't be impatient, Miss Maiko, we will discuss it slowly while drinking coffee and eating desserts later."

There was a disgusting falseness on Nakame Raize's face.

Kuzumi Maiko felt like beating someone up in her heart.

"Ah, the coffee is almost ready. I'll get it."

Nakame Reitzer brought the coffee, "Miss Maiko, this is freshly ground coffee, please try it."

"Thank you."

After a while, Nakame Raisei saw that Kuzumi Maiko was not moving, so he couldn't help but urge: "Miss Maiko, why don't you drink it? Try it, it's very delicious, drink it while it's hot, to warm up your body."

Kuzumi Maiko hesitated for a moment, picked up the coffee cup along with the saucer, then pretended to be slippery and knocked the coffee cup over on the table.

The coffee liquid surged across the table and rushed towards Nakame Reitzer.

Nakame Raize quickly spread his legs to avoid the coffee liquid dripping from the table, but the coffee liquid still dripped on the chair legs.

Nakame Raize used his strength to move the chair with him, and then quickly stood up.

Another stream of coffee dripped from the table and landed right on the other leg of his chair.

"Sorry, sorry, my hand slipped?" Kuzumi Maiko said, holding back a smile, "Mr. Nakame, it's getting late, let's talk about business."

"How can this be possible? Miss Maiko came to my place and didn't even take a sip of coffee. This is too rude." Nakame Reitzer said, "Miss Maiko, wait a moment, I will pour you another cup."

"No, I don't want to waste another cup of coffee," Kuzumi Maiko said coldly, "Mr. Nakame, I won't eat anything from you. If you want to drug me, I advise you to give up. "

Zhongmu Laize was surprised and said: "W-what kind of medicine? What are you talking about!"

Kuzumi Maiko shouted: "Stop pretending. I heard the phone call between you and President Somei that day. I know exactly what you meant, both inside and outside of your words."

"Oh," Nakame Reitzer suddenly beamed, "So, Miss Maiko, have you thought clearly about coming here today? That's great. To be honest, I have admired you for a long time."

Looking at Nakame Raize who was approaching and his outstretched paw, Kuzumi Maiko quickly moved away, "Don't touch me, I won't let you succeed."

Nakame Raize slowly approached, "Miss Maiko, you should think about your company. Even if it is not for yourself, you should also think about your colleagues in the company. What will happen if they lose their jobs? In today's environment, work It’s not easy to find.”

"And President Somei, I heard that he borrowed a high-interest loan for this show. If the show fails, he might jump off the building."

"I heard that you like him very much. No matter what, you don't want him to die, right?"

Nakame Raize approached Kuzumi Maiko with a sinister smile.

"This is a soundproof high-end apartment. Even if you scream, no one will hear you."

Nakame Raize showed a ferocious face, "?? And even if you call the police afterwards, it will be useless. It was you who came to me. I can definitely say that you bribed me for your company's project, and then blackmailed me to see me. If you don’t comply, then you’ll call the police and accuse me of assaulting you.”

clap clap.

Suddenly there was applause in the room.

The two looked over in surprise.

Kuzumi Maiko shouted in surprise: "Lord Chichu!"

She ran over and threw herself into Chi Chufeng's arms.

Zhongmu Raize was taken aback. He stood up in panic and bowed: "Lord Chichu, it is truly an honor for you to come to my humble residence. This, this is your person."

Chi Chufeng nodded slightly, "Yes, Miss Maiko has joined my company, so now she is mine. You should know my temper."

"What? She, she, she is yours?"

Nakame Raize's expression changed drastically, and he suddenly thought of all the terrifying rumors about this Master Onmyoji.

"No, no, don't kill me!"

Nakame Raize rushed out of the door frantically.
