Lucifer, propping his chin on his hand, said on the other end of the phone, "Oh, I thought you'd call back later. Aren't you working overtime lately? How come you're so free today?"
Rino Kurakichi rested her phone against a wine bottle and casually said while eating her food, "Working overtime doesn't mean I'm a robot. Today, Shunka and I both finished work early at 5:40. Although we still have documents to revise tonight, we still took the time to have dinner together."
Yuko Ichihara leaned over and said with some confusion, "Then why don't you two go home for dinner? You can see your husband there. I don't believe you two don't miss home."
Rino Kurakichi sighed and said, "We want to too, but we haven't finished our work. When I chat with Shunka, we always say we miss home so much. But if we start enjoying life halfway through the work, we might not be able to work at our best."
"I'm impressed by you two. You're both working so hard. Yumiko and the others are working overtime too. Oh, and Esdeath and the others are back, and they brought a lot of people with them. The store is bustling with activity now."
"Let me introduce you. Although you've all seen the photos, you should still say hello. Kurohime, you two say hello."
Rino Kurakichi waved to Shunka Hiyama. Akame and the others had seen each other's photos before, but this was the first time they had actually met. It wasn't difficult for women to make friends, especially when they were all on the same side, so they became familiar with each other in just a couple of minutes.
Hiyama Shunka blinked and said, "It's really unexpected, it's really unreasonable. Garuda and the others have special bloodlines; but Mine and you, who are so slender and even look very weak, have such strong physical abilities."
Lucifer coughed lightly and said, "They're just training really hard. Let's not talk about that. Rino, here you go, all alone."
"Ok?"
Everyone turned to look at Mai Sakurajima. Mai was also a little nervous, after all, Lucifer and the others had been with her for a long time and were already familiar with her.
However, Rino Kurakichi was unfamiliar with the situation, and as an entertainer, it was impossible for her not to be nervous at all towards someone who could hold the power of life and death over entertainers.
However, Mai Sakurajima was well aware that this opportunity was rare and could be considered a sure thing. Since they were all Yuno Gasai's sisters, there was no need to be nervous.
After calming herself down, Mai Sakurajima walked in front of the camera. Rino Kurakichi paused for a moment before chuckling and saying, "It seems that Sakurajima-senpai, whom Yuno has been talking about all along, has finally solved her problem."
Mai Sakurajima bowed politely and said softly, "Hello, Ms. Kurakichi. It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Mai Sakurajima."
Rino Kurakichi, resting her chin on her hand, smiled and said, "I'm a little nervous, but it's understandable. No celebrity has ever remained calm when they see me. So, I already know what it means that you're here now."
"Eh?"
"Tomorrow won't work... The day after tomorrow, come to Golden Entertainment after school and just tell the receptionist your name."
Sakurajima Mai hesitated for a moment before quickly replying, "Okay! Ms. Kurakichi, what do I need to prepare for the interview? Is it a performance or...?"
Rino Kurakichi waved her hand and said, "Stop, stop. I didn't bring you here for an interview. I know your work. You're a very talented and capable young actor. An interview is really unnecessary. That's one point."
"Secondly, you were strongly recommended by Yuno, and Lucy and the others also approve of you, which shows that your character and attitude are both good."
"Finally, since you're here and will soon be a member of my company, you're family. Just call me 'older sister.' Ms. Kurakichi is a bit too formal. Is that clear?"
Mai Sakurajima said blankly, "So...so we just sign the contract?"
"Otherwise what? I'm asking you to come here the day after tomorrow to sign the contract and to show you around the company. By the way, you don't need to talk to your original agent and company. I'll just give them a call later. They won't dare to refuse to release you, and they won't even dare to ask for a penalty for breach of contract. You don't need to worry."
"No, I... *puff*... thank you, Cang..."
"Cough cough..."
"Thank you, Rino-nee..."
Rino Kurakichi said with a smile, "It's nothing. Besides, I'm actually lucky to have you here. I've gained a high-quality actress for free. How's your relationship with your original manager? If it's good, I can bring her over too."
Mai Sakurajima pursed her lips, then hesitated for a moment before saying, "My manager is my mother..."
Rino Kurakichi paused for a moment, glancing at Lucifer and the others who were exchanging meaningful glances. Rino Kurakichi then realized why Lucifer and the others had specifically called her; they wanted her to personally speak to Mai Sakurajima's mother about this matter and, incidentally, put some pressure on her.
"Oh dear, that's quite an unexpected turn of events. But since you're here, to avoid any unnecessary trouble, I think it's best to find you an agent. Don't worry, our company has one agent dedicated to you, a top-tier agent."
"Thank you, Rino-nee..."
"It's nothing. If you really appreciate it, please help me earn more box office revenue. Every extra penny is part of my dowry. By the way, add me on WeChat later. Just contact me if you need anything."
"it is good..."

Chapter 412 Chelsea's Reflections, Yakumo Ran's New Treasure (Please Subscribe~)
After chatting with everyone for a while, Rino Kurakichi and Shunka Hiyama decisively asked Lucifer and the others to hand over their phones to Shiraha, while Mine and the others chatted about their own things on the side.
Zhengyi said with a smile, "See? As soon as you talked to Rino, she immediately decided that you should go to Golden Entertainment. I also think that since you like makeup, it would be better for you to go to Golden Entertainment."
Chelsea paused for a moment and said, "Because the entertainment industry demands more skill in makeup?"
"No, no, no, it's not that simple. First, as you said, and second, although only Rino is currently a member of the Golden Entertainment family, the company belongs to her. Soon, Ms. Sakurajima will be joining, so you two can work together. In a while, many more people will be joining."
"Huh? Are there still many people wanting to join?"
Ali thought for a moment and said, "If I remember correctly, Akali really likes hip-hop. Someone once told her that if all else fails, she could debut as a girl group. Akali actually considered it. Also, if Little Bird and the others really want to form an idol group, they will have to be thrown directly into Golden Entertainment."
Lucifer nodded and said, "That's right, this is only part of it. There will be more later. So, it would be great if you went to Golden Entertainment. You can just tell Rino anytime you want to take a break or visit WGO or other sister companies."
Chelsea and the others nodded in sudden realization. They understood now. Mai Sakurajima sighed and said, "I really didn't expect things to develop like this. It's much smoother than I imagined."
Yuuko Ichihara waved her hand and said, "It would indeed be troublesome if it were a stranger, but obviously you are not, and you have real talent, so Rino will definitely be very happy to have you join us. By the way, you can rest here today, and you can come over whenever you're bored at home."
"Okay... but then again, if that's the case, shouldn't I go back and pack my luggage?"
"You can just buy it directly, oh dear, honey, are you done chatting? Rino and Shunka rarely have so much to talk about. So, what did you talk about? Were there a lot of interesting things?"
Bai Yu said somewhat helplessly, "In fact, the two of them didn't talk about anything related to their personal lives; they only talked about work."
"Oh? Really? This isn't like either of them."
Eirin Yagokoro thought for a moment and said, "I think it makes a lot of sense. After all, work is a part of their lives, and finishing their overtime work sooner means they can come here sooner."
"That's true, but it's rare for her to answer the phone willingly, and it just turns out we're talking about work. It feels a bit strange. Oh well, let's not talk about that anymore. Honey, haven't Ms. Mizuhara and the others arrived yet?"
Bai Yu shook his head and said, "No, maybe they felt it was too early and the store wasn't open yet. After all, Miss Muji came quite late before. Longdan, did you tell them the opening time?"
"Well... I don't think I ever said that. But they usually keep their shops open, and they usually come over after closing time. If they're closed, it's at least 8:30. If they want to come over, they must be open by then, so I just told them to come over in the evening."
Marina clicked her tongue and said, "Although it sounds like an excuse, it's surprisingly reasonable. So she probably won't be able to come anytime soon. Yuno, you two take Sakurajima upstairs to tidy up her room. She can come down for a visit later."
"Oh!" xn
Before Mai Sakurajima could even say thank you, Yuno Gasai and the others pulled her away. Shiraha smiled and shook his head, saying, "That girl who used to linger on the edge of the abyss can now lend a hand to others."
Harley Quinn laughed and said, "I guess this is what they mean by wanting to hold an umbrella for someone else because you've been rained on yourself."
"Using an umbrella? Maybe he just wants to lend a hand."
"Eh? Is that so?"
"So it's hard to say, we'll have to ask Yuno herself."
Everyone nodded. Yukari Yakumo looked around before clearing her throat and saying, "Honey, tomorrow is the day Kraki will be a judge. Do you want to go and watch? She's so envious today."
Bai Yu nodded and said, "Of course we'll go take a look. Are you going again tomorrow?"
0Request flowers
"Let's skip it. Too many people wouldn't be good. Besides, we already agreed this afternoon that we'd like fewer people. It'll be like you keeping Klara company, honey. As for who goes, we'll see who's free tomorrow."
"Okay, by the way, Lan, come here for a moment."
"Eh? Yes!"
Yakumo Ran got up and followed Shiraha to the kitchen. Yakumo Yukari and the others were stunned for a moment, exchanged glances, and then shrugged and continued chatting and playing cards.
Yakumo Ran said with some anticipation, "Husband, is there anything you need me to do? Don't worry! I'll definitely handle it well!"
Seeing Yakumo Ran's serious expression, Shiraha smiled, took a box from a nearby counter, and handed it to her. Yakumo Ran's ears twitched, and she said with some confusion, "Husband... what is this...?"
"This is from the day Zhengyi, Mengmeng, and I went to the training camp. On the way back, Zhengyi and Mengmeng got a gashapon machine and happened to see this, so I brought one for you. I think it suits you very well."
Yakumo Ran blinked, then her face lit up with delight, her tail wagging excitedly as she took the box and said with a smile, "I love anything my husband gives me... ah..."
Although Yakumo Ran said that, when she opened the box and saw a smiling little fox doll, and more importantly, the little fox was also holding a little black cat, the same image, Yakumo Ran's eyes lit up immediately.
The little fox and the little black cat immediately reminded her of herself and Orange. Plus, it was a gift from her husband, so Yakumo Ran immediately listed the doll as her number one collectible in her heart. It was an absolute treasure, the kind that she would cherish for a lifetime.
"It seems like they like it quite a bit."
Yakumo Ran immediately threw herself into Shiraha's arms and kissed him. At the same time, Lucifer on the other side asked with some confusion, "Why did you call Ran over, husband?"
"Who knows? Maybe there'll be a little surprise?"
"Hmm?" (PS: Remember this plush toy~)

Chapter 413 Yukari Yakumo's Actions, Taki Kakuzaki's Favor (Please Subscribe~)
Although they were well-prepared, when it came time to actually go to the store, Mizuhara Fuyumi and Kakuzaki Taki felt a rare mix of anticipation and nervousness, since this time they were really going to talk about their original purpose.
"Yuanguo, are you sure the shop is on this street?"
Kikuchi nods and says, "I'm absolutely certain it's on this street. Mizuhara-senpai, you all had the same reaction as me back then—we all wondered if we'd come to the wrong place. Don't worry, I'm absolutely sure I'm not mistaken."
Kakuzaki Taki clicked his tongue and said, "Mr. Shiraha is really a strange person. With such cooking skills, such a family environment, and the whole WGO, he should be running a very expensive and luxurious restaurant."
Mizuhara Fuyumi nodded and said, "That's right. With dishes like this and his status, I can accept having to book months or even a year in advance, but... although I knew Mr. Shiraha's restaurant was special, I didn't expect it to be this special."
"Didn't Shinomiya-senpai and the others mention this in the graduates' chat group?"
"No, I just said that if you have time in Tokyo, I recommend you go and find the busiest street, and then you can find it. But I didn't expect him to mean the one next door."
"I guess Shinomiya-senpai and the others don't want just anyone to be able to find Mr. Shiraha's shop, right? Mizuhara-senpai, let's go to the shop then. If we go too late, Mrs. Lucifer and the others who are minding the shop will definitely ask us questions."
"Um...."
As the three of them hurried towards the shop, the other shop was much quieter. Since Yukari and the others had already eaten dinner, they were chatting with drinks in hand, and occasional soft laughter could be heard, creating a particularly harmonious atmosphere.
"Hey Lan, what did your husband call you to do? You seemed so happy when you came back, you could barely keep your mouth shut."
Yakumo Ran smiled and said, "It's nothing. My husband just said that when we go to Gensokyo later, he asked me to prepare some things and also to help him with the tea and snacks."
"Hmm? Are you sure?"
"Sister Zi, I'm very sure."
Yakumo Ran dared not let Yakumo Yukari know about the existence of this doll. It wasn't that she was afraid of confiscation, but mainly that Yakumo Yukari and the others would be extremely jealous. Since she had already gained an advantage, it was better to be honest. She was not like Albedo and the others.
Kazami Yuuka, holding her teacup, said softly, "Yukari, where did you go before?"
"Uh...wh...what?"
"Don't play dumb, you even passed through my flower field."
Yakumo Yukari's eyes twitched as she said, "Um... actually, we didn't do anything. We just went to find that tengu to get some information about the Youkai Mountain."
Kazami Yuuka glanced at Yakumo Yukari before continuing to watch the movie Beelzebub had found while sipping her tea. Yakumo Yukari also breathed a sigh of relief; she had indeed gone to find Shameimaru Aya, but she hadn't actually asked about the Youkai Mountain.
Just as Yukari Yakumo was about to say something, she heard a surprised voice: "There really is a shop there...."
Lucifer and the others turned around and saw Mizuhara Fuyumi and her two companions walk in. As soon as they entered the store, Kakuzaki Taki and Mizuhara Fuyumi were surprised to find something: the store was not as luxurious as they had imagined, but as soon as they entered, they felt a strange sense of security, as if a child who had been wandering for a long time had suddenly found home.
"Oh, the three of you have finally arrived. I thought you weren't coming today."
Mizuhara Fuyumi shook her head and said, "No, we just didn't know when we were coming. We had just finished running some errands and came over on a stroll when it was almost time. But we didn't expect Mr. Shiraha's shop to have this kind of style. It gives us a very reassuring feeling."
"Yes, this is one of the special features of our restaurant that Longdan told you about before. Don't stand at the door. Since you're here to eat, just find a place to sit. Our restaurant never makes reservations."
"it is good...."
After the three of them found a place to sit, Kakuzaki Taki looked around. This restaurant had made a very good first impression on her. Wandering around the city at night, exhausted, finding a place like this, ordering a delicious meal, and having a good rest would be wonderful...
Bai Yu stood up, walked to the three-person table, and said with a smile, "It's the first time in a sense that three professional chefs have come to the restaurant to eat, so it feels quite challenging."
Everyone's eyes twitched. Kakuzaki Taki sighed and said, "Mr. Shiraha, I don't know why, but although you usually seem very sincere and humble, there's something inexplicably frustrating about you..."
"Hmm? It's probably because Ms. Kakuzaki has unique goals and self-expectations."
"Um... it feels like I can't really explain it. Well... Manager Shiraha, there's no menu in the shop. We can make any dish as long as we have the ingredients, right?"
Bai Yu nodded and said, "Yes, but as far as I know, the three of you are all good at Western cuisine. Would you like to order a whole table of Western food? That would make things much easier."
Just as Kakuzaki Taki was about to speak, he heard Mizuhara Fuyumi say softly, "That's true, but since this is our first meal at the restaurant, it's hard to decide what kind of Western dishes to choose for three people. We should try again next time we have the chance."
Kikuchi Sonoka tilted her head and said, "Well, Mizuhara-senpai, shall we... have Chinese food? It seems like Chinese food is the most suitable option left out of the major categories." 2.8
"Yes, that's what I'm thinking. And in terms of atmosphere and meaning, Chinese food is better. So, for three people, five or six dishes should be enough. Do you two have any dishes you'd like to try?"
Kakuzaki Taki thought for a moment and said, "In that case, I personally prefer dishes with a stronger, more impactful flavor, so... um..."
"Taki-senpai, you can tell me what kind of food you want to eat, and Mr. Shiraha will arrange it himself."
"Oh? In that case... then... a meat dish with a stronger flavor, something hot that goes well with drinks."
"Okay, then, you two..."
