Out-of-control players in the world of Detective Conan

Kaito Kuroba shrugged and smiled confidently.

"He didn't want to eat your chocolate at first, but he decided to eat it after you said he had good taste."

"Although it's a very subtle thing, it might indicate one thing: he needs others to provide him with emotional value."

Koizumi Akako nodded in agreement with Kuroba Kaito's words, acknowledging that it was indeed a possibility.

"Kaito Kid, the way you're talking now sounds just like that guy."

Kaito Kuroba stumbled, glancing at Akako Koizumi with a half-closed look and retorting:

"What are you talking about? Who looks like that detective? And I'm not Kaito Kid."

"Hehe, so what exactly is your plan?"

Kaito Kuroba smiled nonchalantly.

However, the words that came out of his mouth didn't seem quite elegant.

"So what I was thinking was that as soon as he targeted me and attacked, I would immediately kneel down and flatter him."

"If I give him all the emotional value he deserves, how dare he lay a hand on me?"

"..."

Koizumi Akako was speechless.

Although this method is indeed silly, it seems to actually work.

"Can't you have any shame?"

"Hehe, you're just jealous that I won't get beaten up."

……

Meanwhile, a commercial street not far from the hotel.

After leaving the hotel, Qi Ming followed the instructions in the text message on his phone and stopped in front of a high-end restaurant.

During his conversation with Koizumi Akako, he received a call from Nichiri TV.

Or perhaps the call wasn't made during a conversation.

Qi Ming checked the missed calls; the other party had called at least ten times during his battle with Koizumi Akako.

After the call was connected, the voice that came from the other end was not that of the station director, a greasy middle-aged man, but rather a girl's voice.

The girl spoke gently, showing no annoyance at all that Qi Ming ignored her call. She even thoughtfully told Qi Ming not to go back, saying she would take a taxi herself.

And now, she is already waiting in the restaurant's private room.

Qi Ming is deeply moved.

What a sweet girl, I love her.

If he becomes the King of Singers next year, he will surely open the door with a fortune.

……

Upon entering the restaurant, led by a waiter, Qi Ming stopped in front of a private room and politely knocked on the door.

bang bang.

The door opened just two seconds after the knocking.

Standing in front of the door was a beautifully dressed and charming girl, whose sweet voice certainly matched her appearance.

After confirming Qi Ming's appearance, the girl bowed slightly, somewhat reservedly.

"Hello sir, this is Yoko Okino, who just called you."

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Qi Ming, Miss Chris Vineyard's father and Sharon Vineyard's husband?"

"??"

……

Sometimes rumors are just that outrageous.

Vermouth initially introduced Qi Ming to others as a disciple of her mother, Sharon Vineyard.

Sharon Vineyard, Vermouth's mother, was also a famous actress.

This is also another identity that Vermouth once played.

Later, Vermouth told her that she no longer used this identity, so she went offline and let her mother die, while she herself attended "her own" funeral as Chris Vineyard.

Good daughter.

However, this operation seems somewhat similar to his faking Miyano Akemi's death.

But he did it better; at least everyone saw the body.

Getting back to the main point, after Vermouth told the contact person this message, the contact person then passed the message on to others.

As the story spread, it evolved into this situation—

Qi Ming is Sharon Vineyard's disciple, so please take care of him.

Qi Ming is Sharon Vineyard's son; please take care of him.

Qi Ming is Chris Vineyard's husband, and he takes care of her.

Qi Ming is Chris Vineyard's father, and he takes care of her.

……

Finally, the question was answered.

Qi Ming is Sharon Vineyard's husband...

"Miss Okino, have you misunderstood something?"

Qi Ming knew about Vermouth Sharon's identity, but wasn't it a bit too outrageous for her to pave the way for herself like this?

Let's not even mention that you've already personally taken your mother offline.

The most crucial question is: how old is Sharon, and how old am I?

Isn't it a bit too much for an old cow to be eating young grass like this...?

Qi Ming fell silent.

It seems like this is a very normal thing in the entertainment industry.

But no, even though I have connections, I absolutely cannot be a gigolo!

"Lamu, cough cough, Miss Okino, when you get back, go and explain to your superiors that I am not Sharon's husband."

Yoko Okino smiled and nodded.

She didn't understand these big-name things and didn't dare to ask too many questions.

After the two were seated, Yoko Okino asked:

"Mr. Qi Ming, are you interested in becoming a singer? Do you have any other requirements?"

Qi Ming was taken aback. "Does that mean I can still choose?"

Yoko Okino smiled sweetly, "That's what our station manager said: we will provide you with all the resources you need for your activities in the entertainment industry, whether it's film, television, or variety shows."

Hearing what Yoko Okino said, Qi Ming was filled with emotion.

It's a damn privilege, but I just love it so much.

Qi Ming lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then a glint suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he raised his hand to slap the table.

The table cracked.

Before Yoko Okino could react, she heard Qi Ming say with shining eyes.

"If I could, I'd actually like to be an Idolmaster!"

Yoko Okino frowned slightly.

She knew her idols, and she also knew the masters.

How come she doesn't know when the two words are put together?

Seeing the other person's questioning look, Qi Ming immediately explained:

"Oh my god, you're in the entertainment industry and you don't even know? It's a producer! The kind of producer who trains all sorts of beautiful girls!"

"The Idolmaster producer who helps them form a group, takes care of their lives and work, and in the process, various ambiguous and romantic relationships can happen!"

Qi Ming became more and more excited as he spoke.

Playing those kinds of games on the computer makes you smile from ear to ear.

To develop an idol training program within this hyper-realistic game...

Then it would take off!

"Ahaha, yes, is that so?"

Yoko Okino forced a smile and agreed.

Yoko Okino, who also debuted in an idol group in her early years, understood Qi Ming's thoughts.

However, judging from Qi Ming's description and tone, he really is talking about an idol group producer, not some kind of madam!

There may be bonds between the producer and the members, but ambiguity is absolutely out of the question.

Girls who choose to become idols may do so for fame, for profit, or for their dreams.

I would never do it for love.

You treat them like wives, but they only see you as a freeloader.

Yoko Okino carefully considered her words, then clasped her hands together apologetically and said:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Qi Ming, due to some recent policies, we have very few resources in the girl group field. Although we can still produce, the members..."

"So you're saying there are no ready-made serial numbers, and I have to start from scratch?"

Qi Ming interrupted the spellcasting and went straight to the point.

"Yes, that's how it is, isn't it?"

"Well, forget it then."

Qi Ming sighed. Finding the right role himself would take a while.

"I'll stick to being a singer. Is there anything I should be careful about? I want to keep things simple."

"Three days as an internet celebrity, ten days as a national sensation, twenty days as a superstar."

"..."

Yoko Okino thought the man in front of her was really crazy.

But what can you do when someone has connections?
