"I see." Of course, Seijiro Kikuoka knew what Chu Yue meant.

What does Chu Yue want if she doesn't want money? Needless to ask, being under house arrest in this school for almost a year must have asked the government to remove the punishment of Chu Yue.

Besides, it's December, and the semester is coming to an end. Some of the students are about to graduate. It is also appropriate for Chu Yue to resign as a teacher at this time.

"Huh? Chu Yue, don't you want money? That's a lot! However, Kirito didn't know that Chu Yue was under house arrest by the government, and when he asked, he made the same gesture as Seijiro Kikuoka.

"Hmm." Chu Yue nodded, "Money is something outside the body...... After this time the matter was resolved, I stopped being a teacher. ”

"Huh?! Don't be a teacher anymore? Kirito said in surprise immediately.

"yes." Chu Yue said, "Some time ago, the school conducted a survey on the intention to go on to higher education, right? What are your plans? ”

"Well......" Kirito said, "I want to ...... Like Chu Yue, participate in the development. ”

"Developing a game?" Chu Yue asked.

"It's not a game, it's a human-computer interface technology that replaces the current completely stealth technology." Kirito said, "I'm already learning about it now, but it's almost all in English, which is a bit of a hassle." ”

"Oh?"

Because of Chu Yue of GGO's game, Chu Yue thought of another character he would meet in the near future: Yuki.

If you have time, pay attention to this child...... Chu Yue thought so.

"Alright, you two chat, please use your own time later." Seijiro Kikuoka said, "I'd like to make a final confirmation to you whether or not you want to accept this task. Of course, we will also take the best security measures and do our best to cooperate with the actions of both of them. ”

Chu Yue and Kirito glanced at each other, and then nodded together.

"Okay......" Kirito said with a somewhat reluctant nod.

"Leave it to us." Chu Yue readily agreed.

"That...... Chu Yue ......" Kirito suddenly asked Chu Yue: "Why, I think you seem to have always been interested in this matter......"

"Is there one?" Chu Yue pretended to be stupid and said, "It's your delusion, right?" ”

You can't tell Kirito, "I'm looking forward to you being a women's clothing boss in GGO," right?

After negotiating with Chu Yue and Kirito, Seijiro Kikuoka settled the bill and left. Kirito ordered relatively few things, and ate them quickly. But Chu Yue......

This great sundae is going to be eaten for a long time......

Originally, Kirito wanted to wait for Chu Yue to go back together after eating, but Chu Yue didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and in the end Kirito could only say a word to Chu Yue and left.

In the evening, after everyone gathered together in the freshman ALO as usual, Chu Yue and Kirito told everyone together that the two could not continue to be online for the next period of time.

However, in order not to let everyone be careful, neither Chu Yue nor Kirito told everyone that this time they went to GGO to take a bullet from a dead gun, but they just said that they were entrusted by Seijiro Kikuoka to go to GGO to investigate some things.

Everyone knew that Seijiro Kikuoka worked in a government agency, so naturally they wouldn't ask about what was being investigated.

December 8, 2025.

Chu Yue took a taxi early and came to the Metropolitan Central Hospital. The address of this hospital was told to Chu Yue by Seijiro Kikuoka, and Chu Yue and Kirito were allowed to enter this hospital to log in to GGO.

Glancing up at the building of this hospital, Chu Yue was about to go in, when he heard the sound of the motorcycle's engine and brakes.

"Good morning, Teacher Chu Yue." Kirito, who came over on a motorcycle, took off his helmet and greeted Chu Yue with a smile.

"Good morning." Chu Yue also said with a smile.

After Kirito parked his motorcycle, the two of them walked towards the hospital together.

"What do you think about the dead shot this time?" In the corridor of the hospital, Chu Yue asked Kirito.

"I'm 99 percent sure that the dead gun is a rumor." Kirito said, "People in the virtual world can't cause the death of people in reality. ”

"That's right." Chu Yue said, "The specific thing is to see how he makes the player be shot in the game, which coincides with the time of death in reality." ”

"Hmm......" Kirito nodded.

The two soon arrived at the door of the ward that Seijiro Kikuoka said.

Kirito knocked on the door, and someone inside said, "Please come in." ”

Kirito opened the door and said, "Excuse me." ”

"Hello, Kiritani-kun." One of the nurses inside looked at Kirito with a smile and said, "Long time no see." Ah, and Mr. Chu Yue. ”

"Miss Yasuki?" Chu Yue said, "Just call me Chu Yue." ”

Miss Yasuki, the nurse who took care of Kirito at the time, was a very enthusiastic person.

"Ah, you, hello, Miss Yasuki." Kirito didn't expect that it was Miss Yasuki who was in charge of receiving Chu Yue and Kirito, and said, "Long time no see." ”

Miss Anki came over and touched Kirito's ass directly, and then said while touching it, "Oh? It's got meat! But that's not enough! Did you eat well? ”

Kirito was suddenly a little embarrassed, but he had already been trained by Miss Anqi when he was undergoing rehabilitation, so he couldn't resist, so he could only answer embarrassedly: "Yes, yes......"

Taking advantage of Kirito's "indecent assault", Chu Yue walked to the middle of the ward and looked at the layout in the ward.

There are two beds in the middle, and there are three medical electronic instruments next to each bed, it seems that if Chu Yue and Kirito were really shot by a death gun, they would definitely be able to know the detailed cause of death.

"The bespectacled civil servant told me...... I said that you were helping the government investigate the virtual network,......" Ms. Yasuki said, "However, since I was in charge of your rehabilitation training before, he asked me to take care of you this time." ”

"Why didn't you call Miss Ichi?" Chu Yue asked.

A pupil is the little nurse who was in charge of taking care of Chu Yue when Chu Yue woke up.

"Chu Yue, you mean to be the nurse who took care of you at the beginning, right?" Ms. Anki said, "We don't know much because we don't work together. ”

Chu Yue nodded, indicating that she understood.

The hospital where Ichijo Hitomi is located is not an ordinary hospital, and it only took a week for Chu Yue to recover, so I didn't call Ichijo Hitomi over, but just asked Miss Yasuki to take care of Chu Yue and Kirito.

"I don't have to be on duty during this time, and I think I've already told the head nurse," Ms. Yasuki said. ”

Kirito smiled and said, "Anyway, during this time, I want to ask you to take care of it again." ”

"Well, I'm on my side too." Miss Anki said.

"Didn't that guy come to Seijiro Kikuoka?" Chu Yue asked, "Oh, it's the state civil servant who wears glasses." ”

"Well, but he left a note!" As she spoke, Miss Yasuki took out a note from her chest pocket and handed it to Kirito.

The note read:

Please send the report directly to the email you usually contact. At the end of the mission, all expenses and remuneration will be paid together, so please apply at that time.

PS: But release your youthful impulses on the pretty young nurses!

Finally, the signature of Seijiro Kikuoka......

Kirito directly crumpled the note into a paper ball. But just after kneading half of it, I thought that I hadn't shown it to Chu Yue yet, so I called Chu Yue, and then threw the paper ball to Chu Yue.

After spreading out the paper ball and looking at it, Chu Yue smiled, and then said, "Miss Anqi, do you want to take a look?" ”

"Huh? Can I watch it? Miss Yasuki asked, pointing to herself.

Because it may be that the note is related to the mission given to Chu Yue and Kirito by the government agency, Miss Yasuki has not read it in order to avoid suspicion.

"Of course, it's just a note." Chu Yue said with a smile.

"Then ......" Miss Anqi was about to take the note, but Kirito snatched the note from Chu Yue's hand before Miss Anqi, and said with a red face, "Hey! Chu Yue, don't talk nonsense! It's going to cause trouble for Miss Yasuki! ”

"Huh?" Miss Yasuki looked at Kirito.

"Miss Anki, don't look at it." Kirito crumpled the note into a paper ball again, put it in his pocket and said, "Let's hurry up and connect to the Internet." ”

"Well, it's been ready for a long time." Miss Yasuki nodded, walked over to the equipment, picked up the thread, and said, "Then, Chuyue, Kirito, take off your clothes!" ”

"What?" Kirito's face turned a little red again, just after recovering a little.

"You want to connect the electrodes." Miss Yasuki said, "Kiritani-kun blushes and what, I have already seen what you should have seen when you were hospitalized." ”

Kirito immediately covered his crotch and said, "Can I just take it off?" ”

However, Miss Yasuki didn't seem to be very happy about this, so she straightened her face and nodded reluctantly: "Hmm! ”

Kirito breathed a sigh of relief.

After the preparations were over, Chu Yue and Kirito finally put on the AmuSphere and closed their eyes.

“Link Start！”

Because it was prepared through the AmuSphere of the government agency, what the corresponding characters looked like, Chu Yue and Kirito didn't know before this.

However, what Chu Yue and Kirito didn't expect was that after entering the game, they didn't even see each other! In other words, in GGO, the game characters corresponding to Chu Yue and Kirito are not in the same place!

What's more, what's even more painful is that Chu Yue and Kirito's friend lists are empty! In other words, there is no way to get in touch with the other party now!

At this time, Kirito, who had just entered the GGO, was already looking at the reflection on the glass on the side of the road and exclaimed, "This, what the hell is going on!" Exclamation.

In the past, Chu Yue gave Kirito women's clothes, but Kirito never wore them. Unexpectedly, the character who has entered the game now is such a male character with long black hair and like a girl.

This looks a bit like Chu Yue......

"At least, make me look like a warrior......" Kiriko couldn't help but complain.

"Oh! Your game image should be from the F1300 series! Suddenly, a man appeared behind Kiriko.

"Huh?" Kiriko didn't react for a while.

"It's a rarity!" The man continued, "It's a rare thing to come up once...... I said, "Little girl, I'm willing to give 2M game coins, and you can sell me the account along with AmuSphere!" ”

Don't look at this person's game currency, you must know that this is a GGO, a game with professional players, and game currency can be converted into real currency! And it's a one-to-one exchange with the yen!

"Little girl?" Kirito was stunned for a moment, and quickly touched his body, but fortunately, those who were there were also and those who were not there, and finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'm sorry, I'm a man." ”

I thought the man would give up, but—

He was even more excited!

"That's the M9000 series!!" The man directly knocked Kiriko and said, "Then I'll go out 4...... No, I'll buy it for 5M! Sell it to me, please sell it to me! ”

5M game coins are 5 million yen! That's not a small amount.

Is there a shemale in GGO? Of course, there are, in all VR games, there are shemales, otherwise, there wouldn't be the man who wants to buy Kiriko's account.

It's just that because GGO is an FPS game, there are very few girls who like this type of game, and male players who are gun lovers generally don't like to use female characters. In order to avoid being harassed, real female players will also create male characters, so there is a serious imbalance in the ratio of men and women in GGO.

Like Shino, it's JK in reality.,It's also a female character in the game.,And the girl who can rank in the top five in the game.,That's the only girl.。

Chu Yue's here...... It's different from Kirito.,It's completely a female character.。

"Seijiro Kikuoka, that guy...... It can't really be gay, right? Chu Yue was a little suspicious.

Of course, Chu Yue, the image of Kiriko, knows, but he actually gave himself an account for a female character, isn't this the personal bad taste of Seijiro Kikuoka?

Then again, where do you go next?

Sure enough, let's meet with Kiriko first...... Think about it...... Chu Yue thought as she wandered around the GGO.

GGO is set on a huge island where there is no rule of law, and guns and weapons are everywhere, although it can also be said to be an MMO game, it is better to be an FPS game.

Unlike fantasy games such as SAO and ALO, the buildings of games with guns and military weapons are almost all black and gray metallic tones, as if this is a giant island of steel.

Suddenly, Chu Yue saw a somewhat familiar female player with a scarf.

Shino Aada!

Chu Yue hurriedly ran over and said, "That, I'm sorry!" ”

"Huh?" Asada Shino turned his head to look at Chu Yue and said coldly, "What's wrong?" ”

Shino Asada has the title of "Ice Sniper" in GGO, not only because of her extremely strong sniping ability, but also because she is as cold as ice.

However, after seeing Chu Yue, Shi Nai showed a smile, and then said, "The first time you entered this game? ”

"Yes...... Chu Yue said, "I originally came with a friend, but I couldn't find anyone." ”

"Are you separated?" Shino asked, "Didn't you add friends to each other?" ”

"We're all new to the game and haven't made friends yet." Chu Yue said, "I'm sorry to ......"

"I know." Shino still smiled and said, "This game, it's very troublesome for girls to come in alone." Don't worry, I'll help you find your friend. ”

"Thank you." Chu Yue also smiled and nodded.

"So, do you and your friends agree where to meet?" Shino asked.

"Hmm......" Chu Yue thought for a moment, and then said, "We are all newbies, if we have just entered the game, we really have to buy some weapons first......

"Hmm......" Shino also lowered her head and thought for a while, and then said: "If you have a weapon shop, there is a large supermarket with a relatively complete range of goods not far away, let's go over there to find your friend." ”

"Okay, thank you so much!" Chu Yue said, "That's right, I also need to buy some weapons." ”

Shi Nai led the way, and Chu Yue followed Shi Nai on the streets inside the GGO.

"Well, let me ask you, why do you want to play this game with your friends?"

"We heard that the game has an event called Bullet of Bullets, and we wanted to participate in it together." Chu Yue replied.

“BOB？” Shino was surprised and said, "Anyway, anyway, did you all just enter this game today?" ”

"yes." Chu Yue nodded.

"I said......" Shino said with some embarrassment, "BOB is an event that all GGO master players will participate in......"

"Ah, we didn't really think about what we could do." Chu Yue said.

"That's right," Shino said...... "This game may not be suitable for girls, it smells of dust and oil everywhere." ”

I didn't expect to use a female character...... Chu Yue said in her heart.

"However, you guys are quite bold when you want to participate in BOB as soon as you enter the game......," Shino said, "Anyway, what does your friend look like, is it your boyfriend?" ”

"No, no, no." Chu Yue hurriedly said, "It should be similar to me, a girl with long black hair, she looks very cute......"

"Oh? Is this boasting about yourself? Shino joked.

"Of course not, Kiriko is much cuter than me." Chu Yue said with a smile.

"So your friend's name is Kirito." Shino smiled and said, "Oh, it's almost there. ”

In the supermarket, Shino took Chu Yue to the hall.

"Waiting for your friend here? Or do we go and pick the weapon first? Shino asked.

"Wait a minute." Chu Yue said, "If Tongzi also finds someone to help lead the way, it should be almost there." ”

"Okay." Shino nodded, "I don't have anything to do today, so I'll be with you." ”

"That's so thankful." Chu Yue continued to pretend to be new.

The two waited for a while, and sure enough, Kiriko also found someone to help lead the way and found this place.

"Kiriko!" Chu Yue shouted towards this side and ran towards Tongzi.

When Tongzi saw Chu Yue, she was stunned for a moment, but immediately reacted: "Chu Yue? ”

"yes." Chu Yue smiled and said, "Sure enough, you are the same." ”

What Chu Yue's words mean is that you were really the same as Seijiro Kikuoka who gave an account for a female character.

However, Kiriko said, "My character is a man!" ”

"Huh? Is it actually a male character? At this time, Shino, who came over, looked at Kiriko in surprise and said.

"Who is this?" Kiriko asked Chu Yue.

"That ......" Chu Yue turned her head to look at Shi Nai.

Although Chu Yue had known Shi Nai's name for a long time, Shi Nai Ke had never told Chu Yue. If you say it directly, you'll be in trouble.

"Shino Asada." Shino said.

"I'm Chu Yue." Chu Yue also said, "Sister Shinai, please take care of me in the future!" ”

"Poetry, sister Shinai?" Shino, who didn't expect to get such a title, suddenly blushed a little.

"Sister Shino is a very enthusiastic person!" Chu Yue said to Kiriko, "Not only bring me here, but also wait for you with me, ready to teach us how to participate in the BOB ......"

"Ah, thank you so much!" Kiriko also knows what it means to have the help of an old player, and immediately thanked him.

"No, it's nothing...... Shi Nai was a little embarrassed by what Chu Yue said, so he took a few steps towards the weapon and said, "Come here." ”

"Hmm." Chu Yue and Tongzi hurriedly followed.

"GGO's firearms can probably be divided into two types, laser guns and live guns. Although the laser gun is relatively light and has a high hit rate, it will be halved in power against players with shields. Therefore, it has become the mainstream of the game to use a live gun to deal with players and an optical gun to deal with monsters. ”

"In other words, if we're going to participate in the BOB, we're going to have to use live guns, right?" Chu Yue asked.

"Hmm." Shino nodded, "By the way, how much money do you have?" ”

Chu Yue and Tongzi cut through the inventory together and looked at the money.

"Just 1000G." Kiriko said.

"Me too." Chu Yue said.

"A veritable initial gold coin," Shino said...... "If you have this money, you can only buy a small ray gun...... If you live ammunition, I don't know if you can afford a second-hand revolver......"

"There are even second-hand guns...... Kirito said.

"Well, if you don't mind, I can lend you some ......," Shino said.

"Oh, no, no." Chu Yue hurriedly said, "Isn't this game exchangeable for yen?" If that doesn't work, we can exchange some yen. ”

Anyway, the government pays for it, and when it comes back to write the report, the government can reimburse it.

"Swap it in yen?" Shino said, "The guns here are not cheap! ”

"So, is there anything I can do to make a quick buck?" Kiriko asked.

"Although there are ...... But I don't recommend you to go. Shino said, "Actually, there is a place for casino gambling in this game. There's one in this point, you see. ”

The supermarket has a passage to the casino with "Let's Challenge" written on the door.

"Let's go check it out." Kiriko said.

When you enter the casino, the interior is similar to the decoration of a traditional casino, with a variety of gambling facilities.

"What is this?" Kiriko saw a robot standing at the door of a house and provoked a passing player: "Hey! Boy, come here if you have a kind! ”

"Now pay at the door, 500 gold coins once, and then enter through the door, and then dodge the bullets fired by the NPC's pistol, and advance the game." Shino explains, "If you can touch an NPC, you will get the gold that all the players have lost so far. ”

And now, the current amount is written on the roof of the house behind the NPC: more than 300,000!

"That's a lot." Kiriko said, "It should be enough for the two of us to buy equipment, right?" ”

"If you want better equipment, 300,000 is enough to arm one person." Shino smiled and said, "Moreover, this game is impossible to win." As soon as you cross the eight-meter line, NPCs will insidiously use rapid fire, and by the time you can see the prediction line, it's too late to dodge. ”

At this time, three people arrived at the door of the game, and one person was ready to play a game.

"Look, there's someone sending money again." Shino said.

When someone comes to challenge, it will attract the players around you. After the player who wanted to participate in the game pressed his handprint on the screen to confirm the payment, a large number of people gathered around.
