Chapter 358: Kankan with the future father-in-law [Ask for subscription]
Are there any ghosts in this world?
The living do not know, and the dead cannot let the living.
This has also made this question a long-standing mystery in the human world.
In today's world, where technology is advancing and human civilization is advancing rapidly, even in Japan, where ghost culture is thriving and various urban legends are often spread, ghost theory is becoming a niche subculture.
For scientists like Nobuyuki Sugo, he firmly believes that the theory of ghosts is purely feudal superstition.
But today, Nobuyuki Sugo's three views have been completely subverted.
When he came back to his senses, Sugo felt that his soul was so thin that it was almost dissipating.
Sugo Nobuyuki is not a person with great perseverance, and as for being able to resist torture and not admit defeat, it is not a story that will happen to Sugo.
Su Xiangsheng looked at Makino without love, and begged for death, "Kill me!" ”
Makino: "Don't be afraid, I'm not a devil after all!" ”
Nobuyuki Sugo broke down and burst into tears.
"Don't torture me anymore, what the hell do you want me to do, you just give me a direct order. In front of you, I don't have any capital to resist, do I? ”
Sugo Nobuyuki was really scared, and in front of Makino, even death became a luxury.
It is said that one hundred deaths, but the devil in front of him can directly extract the soul of a human being...... That's ridiculous!
Could this be the punishment he had given to take 250 souls and prepare to use them as test subjects?
No!
Maybe it's just because he covets Asuna's punishment!
At this moment, Nobuyuki Sugo was extraordinarily sober.
He figured it out thoroughly, maybe he intercepted 250 players' consciousness, it was nothing at all.
The point is, he shouldn't covet Makino, the devil's woman.
It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous!
I think he is also an elite who graduated from a prestigious university, but because of this step, he fell into such a situation.
Seeing Sugo like a dead fish, Makino suddenly had no intention of targeting him again.
Not a grade enemy, too boring!
Makino let go casually, and Sugo Nobuyuki's soul returned to his body.
But perhaps the damage to his soul was so severe that Shinyuki Sugo, who was lying on the ground, couldn't get up for a while.
But out of fear of Makino, Nobuyuki Sugo continued to struggle, trying to adapt to his body.
Seeing this scene, Makino didn't bother to say anything, and directly stated his purpose and requirements.
First, release the consciousness of all players that he has intercepted.
Second, hand over all evidence of evil.
Third, after doing all this, self-destruction.
Hearing Makino's words that made him cut himself off, Sugo Nobuyuki was suddenly miserable.
If ordinary people threaten him, Sugo can still resist, but in the face of Makino...... This is an existence that can make him survive but not die!
Sugo Shinyuki's twin strands trembled, and his teeth were a little disobedient, "Obey...... Yes, sir. ”
Makino turned around, "Remember to do it cleanly, of course, you can also play some small tricks." However, I'm pretty good at cleaning! ”
Makino's words made Sugo Nobuyuki shiver directly.
Makino left, and Shin'ichi Sugo remained motionless, like a dead man.
An hour later.
All the players who were secretly intercepted and imprisoned by Nobuyuki Sugo logged out one by one!
At this point, the SAO incident that caused a sensation in the world came to an end.
And among them, what role Nobuyuki Sugo played, except for Makino and Asuna, no one knows.
A day later.
Nobuyuki Sugo passed away.
Holding the memory containing all the plans and sins of Sugo, Makino's mood was calmer than ever.
Killing is not killing, killing is nursing.
In Sugo, Makino once again felt the truth that to eliminate great evil is to do great good.
Strictly speaking, Sugo Nobuyuki is definitely the enemy with the lowest weight and the most no cards in the Sword Art Online world.
Throughout the sword world, Akihiko Kayaba, a mad scientist, is the real "big villain" in history.
In terms of destructive power, it is not worthy of the township to carry shoes on the ground.
It's just that the biggest difference between the thatch and the mustache is that the work of the thatch is far greater than the excess!
In a sense, Akihiko Kayaba ushered in a new era.
Time passes.
More and more inside information about SAO is being revealed.
People from the outside world only then knew that the tens of thousands of players who were trapped had experienced so much in SAO.
Not to mention the life and monsters and boss battles, there is even the existence of the smiling coffin of the Killing Guild.
These messages have once again detonated the entire network!
Many experts have expressed concern about the mental health of the rescued 6,000-odd players, whether it is to help the children re-establish a correct view of the world, or even to monitor the children, so that a school for all SAO players has been established.
Of course, as the countermeasures department got more and more information, the names of "Wings of Freedom" and "Chairman Makino" appeared more frequently.
The leader of the most powerful guild, defeated Akihiko Kayaba twice, helped the middle and low-level players, established idol groups to relieve the mentality of players, and crusaded against the smiling coffin of the killing guild......
One by one, the more you know, the more everyone admires Makino as a hero.
However, after all, the SAO incident is a key blockade event, and the scope of circulation is very controlled.
But that's it, the name of Makino is still widely spread in certain circles.
When Seijiro Kikuoka, an official of the Second Group of the Advanced Communications Network Promotion Division of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, visited Makino, it was only in the middle of the morning that the photo was matched with Makino himself.
Young, too young.
It's really hard to imagine that such a "little young man" has defeated Akihiko Kayaba twice and saved all the trapped victims of SAO.
However, after some conversation, Seijiro Kikuoka's understanding of Makino changed again.
Makino's mind is far more atmospheric and mature than his appearance shows!
I don't know if it's an illusion, but when facing Makino, he actually has the feeling of facing the chief.
However, Seijiro Kikuoka thought about it and understood.
After all, Makino is the existence of the Freedom Wings Guild President who has served as the leader of the Freedom Wings Guild for two years in SAO, and in SAO, where strength is king, Makino is definitely a leader-level existence.
With Makino's deliberate cooperation, after some free talk, Seijiro Kikuoka obtained all the information he wanted and left satisfied.
After Kikuoka left, Makino calmly stood up from his wheelchair and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
Dealing with these officials is really tiring.
Makino feels like it's even harder than him spawning a quest boss alone!
In the following days, Makino's main thing to do was to quietly accompany Asuna for rehabilitation treatment.
Rehabilitation training is boring and boring, watching Asuna with the help of equipment little by little, constantly exercising her body, Makino felt distressed, and wanted to forcibly use fairy beans more than once to help Asuna recover her health.
However, in the end, Makino chose to respect Asuna's wishes!
Traveling through various supernatural worlds every day, Makino almost forgot that the human body was so fragile.
Take Asuna's rehabilitation, for example, repeating a few movements back and forth, just to exercise and activate the muscles.
It's outrageously inefficient, and the process is tedious and painful.
If the mentality is not good enough, you may become irritable and even hateful while doing it.
However, the situation I saw in the hospital was actually very different from what Makino had imagined.
Whether it's Asuna or the other players who are working hard to do rehabilitation training, the mentality is very good.
Makino even often saw them talking and laughing, even if they often sweated like rain, they were as happy as food.
This made Makino's heart couldn't help but feel a lot of touch!
It's not that Makino realized anything again, but Makino suddenly found that the distance between him and ordinary people is really quite ...... Far away!
As long as he continues to be strong, maybe one day, even today's feeling will slowly fade.
Because, as Makino continues to get stronger, it may become very unlikely that he will even have access to ordinary people.
If it weren't for Asuna's insistence this time, Makino probably wouldn't have seen this difficult recovery scene in front of him.
At this moment, Makino suddenly understood why the Divine Tree of Destiny of the Singer God Clan was slowly losing its nourishment for growth.
When the station is high, the distance between the ordinary and the ordinary will slowly move away.
As for the happiness and emotion that can be harvested in ordinary and ordinary times, naturally I will never feel it anymore!
This may be the so-called "divinity" and "humanity" will gradually go away!
Makino knew that he would definitely go further and further on the road to "divinity", and eventually become a "qualified" citizen of the Protoss.
The only thing Makino can do is to cherish the present.
While chasing power, we should also pay more attention to the people and scenery around us.
It didn't take long for the rehabilitation center of Tokorozawa City General Hospital in Saitama Prefecture to transfer a teenager who was also undergoing "rehabilitation".
The boy apparently has a good relationship with Asuna, and will be with Asuna every time he undergoes rehabilitation.
This makes many nurses and doctors very happy to see it.
After all, rehabilitation can be very painful and boring, but if you are accompanied by a lover or friend, the situation may be completely different.
As for Asuna herself, it was even happier.
She insisted on not using fairy beans, and the reason was above board, but she was actually a little apprehensive in her heart.
After all, this caused a lot of trouble for Makino.
However, when Asuna saw a healthy Makino pretending to be a patient in need of rehabilitation, and accompanied her every day for rehabilitation treatment, Asuna was completely moved.
She is really the happiest girl in the world!
Of course, what surprised Makino the most was a series of changes that had taken place in Makino.
Actually, what exactly happened to Makino, Asuna is not easy to describe.
But when she was with Makino, she instinctively felt that Makino's distance was closer.
That's right!
It's this feeling of being more approachable, and in the past, Asuna could occasionally feel the distance that couldn't be crossed even when she was by Makino's side.
Especially when Makino confesses his identity as a god to Asuna, this sense of distance is even stronger!
Now, this sense of distance is much smaller.
Asuna felt very happy and cherished the present time even more.
Accompanying Asuna to do rehabilitation training every day, Makino naturally entered the eyes of Asuna's parents.
As Shozo Yuuki, plus the maintenance of SAO server maintenance, Yuuki Shozo's company is responsible.
If you want to know all kinds of insider information about SAO, it's not too simple.
As for the relationship between Makino and Asuna in the game, Shozo Yuuki knows it well.
A balcony of the General Hospital Rehabilitation Center.
The balcony has excellent lighting conditions, and the warm sun shines on the body, which is also extraordinarily comfortable.
Not only that, but because of the location, the various views in the courtyard can be seen at a glance.
Makino could even see Asuna chatting with a patient below, but it was clear that Asuna was not as calm as her father was about talking to Makino out of the blue.
This can be glimpsed from the small movements of Asuna looking at this side from time to time.
That's right!
The current Makino is being called out by the future father-in-law alone, looking at the appearance of Shozo Yuki, is he going to have a "negotiation" with him? "Negotiations?"
In fact, Yuki Shozo was looking for Makino at this time, which was still a little unexpected by Makino.
Because, the appearance of Shozo Yuki was much, much later than Makino imagined.
"Hello Makino-kun, I know all about the internal affairs of SAO, thank you very much for taking care of the little girl Asuina!"
Shozo Yuuki wears a black suit and is burly, looking like a man in his fifties.
He is dressed in a modest manner, the kind of style that is very typical of the social elite.
Of course, the word "modest" may not be appropriate, and it is better to use "understated luxury".
The only thing that surprised Makino was that Yuki Shozo's attitude was unexpectedly kind, not to mention that he was not domineering, and Makino even felt a little closeness to Yuki Shozo.
This is completely different from what Makino imagined!
According to the routine in the movie, this cheap father-in-law shouldn't be - "How much does it cost to leave my daughter?" Is 5 million enough? ”
Ahem, dog blood!
People respect me, I respect people.
Since this cheap father-in-law is so easy to talk to, Makino naturally won't make himself unhappy.
Makino: "Yuuki-sama, she doesn't need my care, but she's the deputy head of the regiment that everyone has always trusted. For quite some time, Asuna and I have always been competitors! ”
Hearing Makino's words, the smile on Shozo Yuuki's face suddenly became brighter.
There is no father who does not want to hear praise from his children.
What's more, what Makino said is all true!
Shozo Yuuki: "I'm proud that Asukana's performance exceeded my expectations, but my gratitude to Makino-kun is also true......"
Makino was about to say something, but was interrupted by Shozo Yuuki.
"Talk to me, there's no need to be so polite. You and Assuna are married in the game, and I've heard Assuna talk about it......"
After Yuki Shozo finished speaking, he looked Makino up and down for a while, and said, "Makino-kun, you are very good!" ”
This time it was Makino's turn to be confused.
"You don't object to me and Asuna?"
This is completely different from what he thought in his heart!
Seeing Makino's somewhat confused appearance, Shozo Yuki suddenly showed a smile.
"Why object? To be at the top of the pyramid at SAO, to be a de facto leader, and to the delight of almost 90% of the survivors. Such a genius son-in-law can't be found with a lantern, right? ”
Yuuki Shozo didn't lie, that's what he said in his heart.
The more he learns about SAO, the more Shozo Yuki will be able to understand what kind of ecology is in it.
This kind of brutal competition and screening is not far behind the shopping mall.
Makino is definitely talented!
The second is that Makino is really good to his daughter Asuina, but you can know this by looking at the interaction between Assuna and Makino.
As for his previously selected prospective son-in-law, Sugo, this made Yuki Shozo helpless.
Actually, he is really optimistic about Suxiang, but it's a pity that Yingcai died early.
"But...... SAO is just a game after all! ”
Makino was still a little confused.
Interlacing is like a mountain, for outsiders, no matter how good the game is, even if it can play professionally, but for many parents, it is still not a proper job.
What's more, the identity and Yuki family set up by Makino are indeed not the right household.
"Unbelievable? It's good to be right, but you have to like it tomorrow. No matter how rich you are, you won't necessarily be richer than my Yuuki family! ”
Hearing Shozo Yuuki's explanation, Makino was speechless for a moment.
Cow Beer!
Arrogant!
Seeing that Makino no longer drilled the tip of the horns, Yuuki Shozo's eyes showed a trace of helplessness.
Tomorrow Nai has blown you into the sky, all kinds of hints in the open and in the dark, just tell him that once he disagrees, he is very likely to bring humiliation on himself, what else can he do?
He's also helpless!
Yuuki Shozo sighed, looking at Asukina who peeked at this side from time to time under the courtyard, and became a little sad.
"This child has always been arranged by me and her mother, she has received an elite education since she was a child, she has never performed herself very well at home, and although she has been at the top of her grades in school, she has never made any friends."
Knowing his daughter Mo Ruo's father, Shozo Yuki has a thorough understanding of Asukana's life from childhood to adulthood.
In other words, her daughter Asuna's life was planned early by his wife Kyoko Yuuki.
Therefore, Shozo Yuki will sigh.
"We still treat her as a child who needs our guidance to grow up, and we worry day and night that Asuna who is trapped in SAO will sink and die......"
Speaking of which, Shozo Yuki was full of emotion.
"When I learned from the SAO Incident Emergency Response Team that there was actually my daughter in the files of many of the top players who were on the front lines, I was really stunned, surprised, and completely unbelievable that this kid could do this."
While Shozo Yuki was shocked by his daughter's performance, he also blamed himself for his incompetence.
It wasn't until this time that Shozo Yuki realized that he didn't actually know anything about this daughter.
Because, he really couldn't imagine what Asuna would be like fighting at the forefront as a warrior.
"I've been taken care of by you a lot."
Yuuki Shozo stood up and bowed to Makino.
"Really, thank you so much."
Yuuki Shozo thanked Makino very sincerely. (Recommended reading: Reading Files 2013)
