"Really? That's good. The child's mother is not here now, otherwise we would have come to visit her today. I don't know what happened to the child in the past two years..."

"It's all over now. What we lost in the past two years can be made up twice as much in the future."

Kato Megumi's tone remained flat. Perhaps it would only fluctuate slightly when it came to salary increase or studying.

Yuuki Shozo's expression showed a hint of helplessness: "If possible, I also want to live a simple life with my family...Haha, I guess I'm not qualified to say such things, sorry sorry."

After all, those who can freely choose their own lives are not ordinary people.

Kato Megumi didn't say anything about this. She just glanced at the time and said, "Ms. Asuna went to bed early yesterday. She might have woken up now. Let's go in, Mr. Yuki."

Yuki Shozo nodded, then lifted the bag in his hand, swiped the access card, and walked in first.

"Asuna..."

When I turned the corner, I saw Asuna already sitting on the bed, leaning against the backrest.

Looking at the weak girl lying on the hospital bed, Yuki Shozo's eyes suddenly sparkled.

"Long time no see, Dad."

Asuna tilted her head, a smile spreading across her face.

Really, it’s been a long time.

Seeing this, Kato Megumi took a step back tactfully: "Then I'll go get breakfast for Asuna first."

"Thank you for your help, Ms. Kato."

Yuki Shozo nodded and spoke with a somewhat excited tone.

Asuna nodded: "Thank you for your help, Sister Hui."

Kato Megumi: "You guys chat."

After saying that, Kato Megumi walked out of the ward, found a bench in the corridor outside and sat down, then took out her cell phone leisurely.

"Ha~!"

After taking a look at the time on her phone, Kato Megumi covered her mouth and yawned softly.

Wait a minute, find a chance to sneak some sleep.

In the ward.

Asuna tilted her head to glance at the door and asked in confusion, "Isn't mom here?"

Yuuki Shozo: "..."

Chapter 19 Kikuoka Seijiro

When he heard Asuna's question, the excitement in Yuuki Shozo's heart disappeared completely.

Well, she is worthy of being my daughter. She has been locked in the game for two years, but she has not changed at all.

It was obvious that when she was a child, her mother was the strictest, but the relationship between the two was the best.

And my father, who is responsible for earning money to support the family, is really not loved by my grandmother or uncle.

Now that I have finally grown my son up, I can only train him in the company to give myself a sense of presence as the head of the family.

As for Asuna?

He has given up completely!

The first thing you say when you get home is: “I’m back~”, and the second thing you say is “Oh my god?”.

And if I were to come back from work early...

The first sentence: "I'm back~".

The second sentence: "Hey? Dad, why are you home? Where's Mom?"

Then, Yuki Shozo realized that his true sweetheart was actually his own son!

As for Asuna? She must have got her gender wrong!

She is obviously a girl, why is there such a big difference between her and others? !

Alas, after so many years, I've gotten used to it.

In response to this, Yuki Shozo sighed helplessly in his heart and said:

"Your mother had something to do at school these past two days, so she took her students out to study. She is not in Tokyo these days."

"Ah... I thought she would take time off to come back and see me after hearing that I was fine."

"It's okay, it's okay. The same goes for video calls. Here, I brought you your phone. If you have nothing to do, just chat with your mom and brother."

As he spoke, Yuuki Shozo reached into his handbag and placed a smartphone on the cabinet next to Asuna's bed.

In addition, there are some other electronic products that Asuna has used before.

"By the way, in a few days some government staff should come to ask you about SAO. Just tell the truth when the time comes. Don't worry about other things."

"Well, of course, if you don't want to talk about it, that's fine. After all, it's just an ordinary investigation. It's just to make arrangements for your future studies and work."

After all, those who were able to come back alive from SAO had experienced more than two years of brutal fighting. If we leave them alone, someone might get into trouble.

If something happens, it will definitely spark a heated discussion.

Regarding the handling of SAO players.

Asuna nodded with a slightly complicated mood, and then asked, "By the way, Dad, have all the players in SAO successfully awakened?"

Yuki Shozo nodded and said, "I heard that they all woke up yesterday, and the relevant government personnel have also started investigating the survivors since yesterday.

After all, this incident is too bad, and Kayaba Akihiko has not been arrested yet, and no one knows when it will be completely over. "

Hearing her father's words, Asuna nodded slightly.

She naturally knew whether Kayaba Akihiko was dead or alive, because in her warehouse, there was a soul crystal with Kayaba Akihiko's portrait on it.

As for the investigation that Yuki Shozo mentioned, he was definitely unable to avoid it.

Compared to ordinary game players, the members of these strategy groups, the top players in SAO, know far more information than ordinary players can match.

On the day the game was released, these top players were busy conquering bosses, and basically all this information could not be concealed.

Then--

Is the game over after defeating the boss?

Did anything strange happen during this period?

Huh?! When I was attacking the boss, Kayaba Akihiko showed up?

Are you saying that Kayaba Akihiko has been fighting in the game with you guys for the past two years? !

The one who exposed his identity was the deputy leader under Kayaba Akihiko?

Oh, the ghost of strategy, flash, okay, okay, it seems that the girl is very powerful.

What?! Then the girl named Asuna and Kayaba Akihiko fought one-on-one? And then the game was over? 1

Thank you! Thank you very much for your cooperation, it is very helpful, we will remember your contribution!

The latest news is that Kayaba Akihiko was defeated by a girl named Asuna. Go to the SAO server to search for information about that girl, and then go to the hospital where she is to visit her immediately!

At this moment, Asuna seemed to have seen herself being asked about SAO matters over and over again.

"I hope... those people won't be too long-winded..."

Asuna smiled bitterly in her heart, and then chatted with Yuuki Shozo for a long time.

It was not until Asuna's stomach protested with dissatisfaction due to hunger that Yuuki Shozo came to his senses.

First, he went outside to find Kato Megumi, and then talked to Asuna for a while. After Asuna finished her belated breakfast, Yuki Shozo returned to the company to handle his own affairs.

Then, that afternoon, a man in a suit came to the private hospital.

"Hello, my name is Seijiro Kikuoka."

The man spoke his name first in a cheerful voice.

The man who looked like a civil servant had a stiff hairstyle and a slender face, and looked like a Chinese teacher (Soichiro Kikuoka?).

He has a man with a smile on his face that looks kind, but upon closer inspection, it turns out to be a bit of a professional smile.

He stood in front of Asuna and Kato Megumi, but his eyes were always fixed on Asuna lying on the hospital bed.

Because the wind outside was a little strong, Kato Megumi stood up and walked directly past Kikuoka Seijiro.

Asuna: "..."

"Click~!"

The window made a slight banging sound as it closed.

The sudden sound attracted the attention of Seijiro Kikuoka.

He tilted his head slightly and looked at the window that was inexplicably closed, and a question mark flashed through his mind.

Just now, when I came in, this window seemed to be open, right?

Then, with Asuna as the witness, Kato Megumi calmly walked past Kikuoka Seijiro.

Asuna: “???”

However, even so, Kikuoka Seijiro did not react at all, which made Asuna feel a little confused.

"Cough cough."

As if realizing that he shouldn't be paying attention to these issues, Kikuoka Seijiro coughed slightly and continued:

“Hello, Ms. Yuuki, I am the current leader of the SAO Emergency Response Team of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications.

The unit I belong to is the Second Group of the Advanced Communications Network Promotion Section of the Integrated Communications Infrastructure Bureau of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications.

Kikuoka Seijirou smiled and nodded to Asuna: "Please give me your guidance."

Chapter 20 Will it not be known by a third person?

Advanced Communications Network Promotion Division, Communications Infrastructure Bureau, Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications.

In the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, it is called the Virtual Space Management Section in the Communications Network, or simply the "Virtual Section".

This is a management organization established by the state and affiliated with the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications.

Its mission is to monitor the VR world, which is currently in a state of disorder and chaos.

The man in front of him, Seijiro Kikuoka, was a senior civil servant in the second group of the Virtual Class and a cyber agent appointed by the country.

On November 2022, 11, after the virtual reality massively online role-playing game "Sword Art Online" was publicly tested and became a death game, the Advanced Communications Network Promotion Section of the Integrated Communications Infrastructure Bureau of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications immediately established an emergency response team for the SAO incident.

And Seijiro Kikuoka is the leader of this group.

Two years ago, after learning about the death game, he was responsible for organizing the personnel and moving the SAO players in stealth to a nearby hospital.

It can be said that many SAO players are alive today because of his actions.

However, other than that, their fake class did nothing.

It’s better to say that there is no way to start.

In the past, they had tried countless times to take action on SAO's servers and find ways to free players from the game.

But on the one hand, the level of the server designed by Kayaba Akihiko was too high for them to easily invade; secondly, even if they could invade, there was a possibility of accidents that would trigger some protection mechanisms and cause the deaths of ten thousand players. Therefore, they did not dare to act rashly.

After all, if someone arbitrarily deprogrammed the server, which was the mastermind and programmer of the incident, Kayaba Akihiko, and caused the brains of those ten thousand people to be destroyed, then no one would be able to take the responsibility.

Therefore, considering the safety of the lives of those 10,000 players, the SAO server is like a black hole and cannot be touched at all.

Therefore, they postponed the matter of "rescuing the trapped players" for a while.

After all, just delay it as much as possible. Everyone can pass the buck and blame others.

However, they could not just sit there and do nothing, so they regrouped and began to investigate the victims in their hospital.

But even so, this is a lot of work.

Just checking the information of the 10,000 players in the server was enough to make them miserable.

But there is no other way. They won’t come out to rescue people. We can only observe the players’ data to judge their growth in the game.
