Chapter 262: Kirito
Logically speaking, in addition to recovering the principal of the loans, Shengzai, who had also earned 60% profit, should be quite well-off right now.
But when he repaid the various costs such as nutritional supplements for the year or more he was trapped in the game, Shengzai suddenly discovered that he was even poorer than before he entered SAO...
The accident that occurred in SAO, although the electronic manufacturer "ARGUS" also bore part of the responsibility and part of the treatment costs, that was only a part of it.
Ever since his grandfather passed away, many of the equipment in the dojo at home had not been maintained or repaired for a long time; if he wanted to reopen the dojo, for safety reasons, it all needed to be replaced and updated, and this also required a large sum of money...
"Damn it, I clearly already have invincible strength in this world, yet now I actually have to worry about some money matters.
Or should I just do something big? No, no... if I really did that, then I would really have no principles at all."
However, just as Shengzai was worrying about the funds to reopen the sword technique dojo, and even hesitating whether to find Shozo Yuuki to ask for a way, the dojo door downstairs was suddenly knocked.
Regarding the sudden knocking, Shengzai was also quite curious; you have to know that because he didn't have much social life, they almost had no guests at home.
Usually, the only people who would come to his house were Kirito and Suguha; Kirito should currently be recuperating at home or in the hospital, and as for Suguha... this place was no different from her own home, and she had a spare key, so she didn't need to knock at all.
At first, Shengzai thought it was Shozo Yuuki or his wife Kyoko Yuuki.
Because ever since Shengzai visited the Yuuki family that time, the attitude of Asuna's parents toward him seemed to be impossibly good.
He asked Shozo Yuuki to handle the dojo license, and Shozo Yuuki agreed without a second word, even using his own connections to handle the matter perfectly the next day.
Asuna's mother, Kyoko Yuuki, also visited Shengzai's home once during the period, and after walking around Shengzai's house as if inspecting it, she finally left after chatting happily with Shengzai.
However, it wasn't until Shengzai came to the dojo door that he discovered that the visitor this time was not the Yuuki couple, but a man named Seijiro Kikuoka.
"You must be Mr. Aunt Wenren, right? My name is Seijiro Kikuoka, an official of the Second Group, Advanced Telecommunications Network Promotion Division, Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications.
Because I heard your name in the SAO and ALO incidents before, I visited you rashly this time; is it convenient to talk now!"
Looking at the young man in a neat suit and thick-rimmed glasses before him, who gave people a serious and earnest feeling, Shengzai was also stunned for a moment.
Seijiro Kikuoka, Shengzai naturally knew this person; wasn't this the pimp designated by Kirito? Why didn't he go find Kirito and come to him instead?
The reason why Seijiro Kikuoka was called a pimp was entirely because after the SAO incident, every virtual game world Kirito entered, such as ALO, GGO, and even UnderWorld, was almost all connected by this Seijiro Kikuoka before him.
And besides Asuna, whom he met in SAO, Kirito later met Suguha, who was hiding her identity, in ALO (Fairy Dance), hooked up with Sinon in GGO (Phantom Bullet), and had an extra childhood sweetheart artificial light, Alice, in UnderWorld.
Simply put, Kirito would almost always have a new wife in every virtual game world, and the person responsible for leading the way and letting Kirito go to these virtual game worlds was Seijiro Kikuoka.
So in his previous life, when Shengzai watched the show, he would always habitually call Seijiro Kikuoka a pimp.
It was no exaggeration to say that Kirito's massive harem could be opened because Seijiro Kikuoka had made a great contribution; even if the person didn't have many plot appearances, without him leading the way, where would Kirito meet so many beautiful girls?
Before, when Shengzai watched the show, he would often jokingly say that if he had a wingman like Seijiro Kikuoka, would he still be single from birth!
But Shengzai never expected that the strongest pimp... oh no, the strongest wingman didn't go find Kirito, but came to his house to find him now.
"Mr. Aunt Wenren, this is my relevant ID; if you really doubt my identity, you can also make a phone call to inquire..."
Seeing Shengzai looking at him silently without speaking, Seijiro Kikuoka thought the other party was doubting his identity, so he quickly took out his relevant ID and said.
"Sorry, I am not doubting Mr. Kikuoka's identity, it's just that I don't quite understand what the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications... Advanced Telecommunications Network Promotion Division wants with me."
Because the other party's unit name was too long, Shengzai didn't even remember it all just now, but as a transmigrator, he knew that this identity was only on the surface; the other party's true identity was actually a lieutenant colonel in the Self-Defense Force.
Before, he was still thinking about whether to do something big, but before he even started, a lieutenant colonel of the Self-Defense Force came to his door in person...
"Regarding this point, Mr. Aunt Wenren doesn't need to worry too much; the reason I'm looking for you this time is not that you have done anything bad, but that there is something I would like to ask for your help with."
Next, Seijiro Kikuoka, who entered Shengzai's house, also said the reason for his visit as Shengzai had expected.
Ever since SAO pioneered the virtual game of full dive two years ago, various types of virtual dive games have appeared on the market in the past two years.
And besides ALO, which stopped operating a while ago because the main operators committed crimes, the most popular one in the country currently is another virtual dive game called Gun Gale Online.
Gun Gale Online, abbreviated as GGO, is different from the mainstream sword-based SAO and the mainstream magic-based ALO; GGO is a virtual game world with guns and steel as the mainstream.
And here, in order to compete for the throne of the strongest gunner, the game system allows, and even advocates, that players engage in PK duels.
The game's official operator also holds various competitions every once in a while to attract players, but just a while ago, this virtual game, which is currently popular across the country, encountered some unexpected situations.
Or to be more precise, it should be said that Seijiro Kikuoka and the others, who are in charge of the Network Security Division of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, discovered some suspicious points.
A game player named "Death Gun" suddenly appeared in the last GGO competition, and the opponents shot by him in the game also died at home in reality.
And their cause of death was also because of sudden heart failure.
And these dead players, if they had a history of heart disease, that would be one thing, but these people were originally quite healthy, and among them was even a professional player; the other party's psychological quality was excellent, and it was impossible for them to die of cardiac arrest because the gun battle game was too exciting.
