Makeup Room.
A makeup artist was applying foundation to Kogoro Mori to make him look better on camera.
Because the image collected by the camera through optical principles is a two-dimensional image, it cannot reflect the front and rear layers of the object.
In addition, the influence of light and shooting angle makes it difficult for people to feel the real outline of the object in the photo, which will magnify some defects on the face of the photographed person.
Therefore, some people look very beautiful and handsome in their daily lives, but they don't look so good when they take pictures.
"Okay, Mr. Mori. The filming is about to begin. We will send someone to notify you. Until then, please wait here for a while."
After the makeup artist finished speaking, she left.
"Oh no, Lin Yi."
Kogoro Mori said uneasily: "I'm starting to get nervous… What should I do?"
"Didn't Miss Yoko say that even if there are mistakes, you can reshoot?"
The more famous Kogoro Mori is, the more people he will attract, and the probability of triggering a dungeon will also increase.
Lin Yi didn't want any problems to occur at this critical juncture.
"No… I'm worried that if I can't answer those reasoning questions, wouldn't I be completely humiliated?"
Kogoro Mori said worriedly. He now understood what it meant to regret not studying hard enough.
"Is that so…"
Lin Yi thought for a while, this was indeed a problem.
Japanese variety shows are different from those in Celestial Dynasty.
Because the Japanese entertainment industry developed earlier, their entertainment industry is also relatively mature.
They will try their best to convey the real effects of the program to the audience, rather than deliberately creating program effects.
Moreover, the post-editing might be a devil, who loves to watch those who claim to be detectives make fools of themselves, ruin his image, and directly use the footage of mistakes.
"In that case… If Uncle Mori, you don't know the answer to a question, then you can do this, this, and this…"
Lin Yi quickly gave Kogoro Mori an idea.
When Kogoro Mori heard this, his eyes lit up, and then he nodded and said: "Okay! That's it!! You're still smart, Lin boy! Bringing you along was a wise decision!"
Kogoro Mori patted Lin Yi's shoulder happily.
Not long after, a staff member knocked on the door to inform Kogoro Mori to start preparing for filming.
After arriving at the studio, Lin Yi picked a front-row seat in the audience and sat down to wait for the filming to begin.
"Hi, excuse me, is there anyone sitting next to you?"
Lin Yi looked in the direction of the voice. A chestnut-haired beauty was asking him.
"No."
Lin Yi shook his head, then turned his attention to the filming scene.
Being approached by a beautiful woman was commonplace for Lin Yi. After so many times, he became calm.
"Mika, over here~~~~" The chestnut-haired beauty beckoned to her friend.
"Sorry… someone is sitting here." The audience member on the other side of the chestnut-haired beauty reminded her.
"Then I'll sit over there…"
The girl named Mika sat down next to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi glanced at her and found that she had long chestnut hair and was also a beauty.
This made Lin Yi mutter to himself, as expected, it's easy to run into beautiful women in a place like a TV station.
He asked, "I'll switch seats with you."
"No need." Mika smiled and waved her hand, saying: "It's fine like this… Sister, your drink."
"Thank you."
The chestnut-haired beauty took the drink from Meicai's hand.
The photography crew was currently debugging the equipment, and the on-site editor was explaining the shooting process to Kogoro Mouri.
"Did you come here alone?"
The chestnut-haired beauty started chatting up Lin Yi.
"No... I came with Detective Mouri."
Lin Yi didn't want to just sit there and space out, so he started chatting with them.
"Ah... I see."
The chestnut-haired beauty said, "My sister and I came for Yoko Okino... We're her fans."
"Sisters?"
Lin Yi raised his eyebrows. He looked at the chestnut-haired beauty on the left and then at the chestnut-haired beauty named Meicai on the right.
He recalled something and couldn't help but confirm again, "Are you biological sisters?"
"Yes."
The chestnut-haired beauty covered her mouth and smiled, "My name is Aoshima Zenyo, and that's my younger sister, Aoshima Meicai."
Lin Yi's gaze towards them immediately changed, and a smile bloomed on his face.
"Hello, my name is Lin Yi, and I'm Detective Mouri's assistant."
As he spoke, Lin Yi shook hands with both of them, "Did you just graduate from university this year?"
"Of course not!"
Aoshima Zenyo covered her mouth, concealing her smile, "I've been working for several years now."
"I've been working too," Aoshima Meicai said, her lips curving upward as she was mistaken for a college student.
"Really? You can't tell at all..." Lin Yi said with a look of "surprise."
"You look very young too..."
"Then guess how old I am."
"Hmm... Twenty?"
"Incorrect..."
"....."
Yoko Okino, who was sitting in the host's position waiting for the filming to begin, was spacing out to pass the time.
She inadvertently glanced at Lin Yi in the audience and saw him chatting and laughing with the two beauties beside him, and she felt inexplicably annoyed.
When she chatted with him before, he didn't smile so happily, it was just a slight smile.
What's with that... Are those two girls prettier than me?
Yoko Okino couldn't help but pout, feeling quite unhappy.
Yoko Okino wanted to look away, but she couldn't help but glance over there.
Especially when she saw Lin Yi take out his phone and exchange phone numbers with the two beauties.
She became even more unhappy.
That night, Lin Yi had enough time to spend with her, but he didn't ask for her phone number. They had only known each other for a short time, and he was already exchanging phone numbers?
"Ms. Yoko?"
"Ms. Yoko?"
"Hmm?"
Yoko Okino came back to her senses and realized that the main MC, Takashi Matsuo, was calling her.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Takashi Matsuo asked with concern.
"No... I didn't sleep well last night, but it's okay."
Yoko Okino quickly made up a reason for her absent-mindedness.
"You can't be absent-minded again after filming starts," Takashi Matsuo instructed.
"Yes, I understand, I'm sorry," Yoko Okino had to apologize.
"Here... this finale question, you will ask Detective Mouri later."
As Takashi Matsuo spoke, he handed a question card to Yoko Okino.
"I understand."
Yoko Okino curiously glanced at the contents of the question card and was slightly stunned.
