Hearing the white deputy captain addressing him, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but grin.
"What's the current condition of the woman we brought back, Rinko Kamishiro?" Taking a deep breath, Yushan Kazuto asked.
"She is in good condition and behaves normally. Today, she even asked me for a yoga mat, as if she wanted to exercise."
The white deputy captain said that he actually didn't quite understand Kamishiro Rinko's behavior.
He originally thought that after being brought back to Tokyo, Rinko Kamishiro would at least go on a hunger strike for a few days, but he didn't expect that she would behave like a normal person.
Yushan Kazuto blinked slightly and said, "Take the camera that can connect to the Internet to her room. I need to communicate with her about something."
"Yes."
Without too many questions, the white deputy captain took the camera and went directly to Rinko Kamishiro's residence. At the beginning, Yayoi Hayama admired his clean and efficient way of doing things, so he recruited him under his command.
When she saw the white deputy captain coming in with a camera, Rinko Kamishiro was a little confused at first, but then she sat up straight and accepted everything calmly.
Through the screen, Yushan Kazuto felt a little strange when he saw the appearance of Kamishiro Rinko. It seemed that Kamishiro Rinko's appearance was not pretended.
At the same time, there was no sense of disillusionment in her expression, as if she had really let go of the past overnight.
Yesterday, when she saw Kayaba Akihiko pass away, she was in tears, but today she seemed to not care at all, which made people suspicious.
Yushan Kazuto blinked slightly. If he said that Kamishiro Rinko didn't care about Kayaba Akihiko at all, he would definitely not believe it. But judging from her current performance, it is hard to say how much she still has in her mind.
【难
road?】
Yushan Kazuto lowered his head in thought.
If Kamishiro Rinko had full faith in Kayaba Akihiko's success, then it would be normal for her to behave like this.
Kazuto Hayama can be sure that Kayaba Akihiko did not pass any information to Rinko Kamishiro. After all, it is not easy to hide it from Hui-chan and secretly pass information to Rinko Kamishiro.
But if Kamishiro Rinko had great confidence in Kayaba Akihiko and firmly believed that Kayaba Akihiko could complete the experiment, then it would not be surprising that she behaved in this way.
"Give her the headphones." Yushan Heren said.
"Okay, little boss."
Hearing this strange name, Yushan Heren couldn't help but feel a chill.
"Put it on."
The white deputy captain threw the wireless headphones to Kamishiro Rinko, who put them on without saying anything.
Seeing Rinko Kamishiro put on her headphones, Hayama Kazuto asked, "Can you hear me?"
Rinko Kamishiro blinked slightly. The voice in the headphones seemed a little immature. Of course, the possibility that the other party used a voice changer could not be ruled out.
"Fortunately, the reception is clear." Rinko Kamishiro said calmly.
"That's good. I came to you today mainly because I wanted to talk to you about something. I wonder if you are interested."
"Tell me about it."
Yushan Kazuto raised his eyebrows slightly. Kamishiro Rinko was not so cooperative. This really disrupted his thinking.
Chapter 1125 Kamishiro Rinko's Choice
"You should know that Kayaba Akihiko is still alive, right?"
After pondering for a long time, Yushan Heren decided to get straight to the point.
He doesn't like too many twists and turns, and a straight-forward approach suits him better.
On the screen, Kamishiro Rinko was visibly stunned, and it took her several seconds to react: "Yes, I do know."
From what Yushan Kazuto said, she already knew that Yushan Kazuto's real age might be much younger than she thought.
"Can you tell me from which channel you got the information?" Yushan Heren said with a blink.
"You haven't dealt with me yet, and instead you've detained me. Aren't you trying to use me to threaten Akihiko?" Rinko Kamishiro sneered.
Yushan Kazuto's expression was a little unnatural. It seemed that Kamishiro Rinko thought she was one of the people behind Kayaba Akihiko.
Based on Yushan Kazuto's understanding of that group of people, it is their traditional skill to kill the donkey after it has done its job. It is no wonder that Kayaba Akihiko would prepare a way out for himself.
Rinko Kamishiro got the correct answer through a wrong inference, which made Kazuto Yuyama feel a little strange.
But if she continues to misunderstand like this, it will be troublesome.
"Ahem, maybe I should make it clear that we are not the group you think we are."
Rinko Kamishiro frowned slightly. Judging from the tone of Kazuto Yuyama, it didn't sound like he was lying.
Of course, some people can lie without blushing or feeling nervous, but judging from Yushan Heren's straightforward attitude, he doesn't seem to be a very good liar.
If we infer this way, things will become a little confusing.
"So, your purpose is still to use me to control Akihiko?" Kamishiro Rinko said tentatively.
"Well, that's true from the results."
"Then you are all birds of a feather." Rinko Kamishiro said bluntly.
Yushan Kazuto blinked. Why did Kamishiro Rinko sound so righteous? She and Kayaba Akihiko had killed hundreds of players together, but she seemed to be occupying the moral high ground.
"Perhaps I should remind you that Kayaba Akihiko's situation is not as good as you think." Yushan Kazuto said slowly.
"What do you mean by that?"
"What I mean is that although Kayaba Akihiko managed to complete his experiment, he is now under my control." Yushan Kazuto said.
Kamishiro Rinko's expression showed a hint of doubt, but soon she became more resolute. It was obvious that she did not believe what Yushan Kazuto said.
"Maybe I should show you a video." Yushan Kazuto smiled.
A snap of fingers was heard from the headphones, and the projector above Rinko Kamishiro's head turned on automatically. The white deputy captain left Rinko Kamishiro's room very tactfully.
In the video, it shows Kayaba Akihiko just merging with the prototype program No. 3. Kayaba Akihiko is a man, but he merged into a virtual female body, which makes people feel a little excited.
When this scene appeared, Rinko Kamishiro knew that this video was most likely real.
After all, it was she who designed the model of Prototype No. 3 in the first place, and she had originally planned to make the program of Prototype No. 3 more perfect and then let it replace Prototype No. 1.
As a result, the gaming talent that Hayama Kazuto showed during the closed beta period made Kayaba Akihiko nervous, so he released the game ahead of schedule.
The perfection of Prototype No. 3 was shelved and was treated as a last-ditch preparation.
If Kayaba Akihiko's experiment is interrupted before completion, Kayaba Akihiko will fuse Prototype No. 3 himself and conduct the experiment on himself.
Judging from the video, Kayaba Akihiko's experiment seems to have been successful.
However, before Rinko Kamishiro could get a good look at the model of the prototype No. 3 that she designed, Kayaba Akihiko turned the model into a middle-aged man who could not be more ordinary, causing Rinko Kamishiro to blink slightly.
She had spent some time designing the model of prototype No. 3, but unfortunately it was rejected by Kayaba Akihiko before it was put into use.
The video jumped, skipping the scene where Kayaba Akihiko was observing each level in the SAO game, and jumped directly to the moment when Hui-chan appeared.
"This is...sao? You didn't shut down the game server!"
Although no other players appeared in the camera and there were only a few trees, Rinko Kamishiro still saw through it at a glance.
There was no other reason. Rinko Kamishiro was too familiar with SAO. Even if she only saw the modeling of a few trees, she could recognize that it was the world of SAO.
"Don't get excited, just keep watching."
Rinko Kamishiro kept blinking, and the development of the video gradually exceeded her expectations.
She didn't expect that such a little girl could forcibly take Kayaba Akihiko away from the world of SAO.
She also didn't expect that the other party's mastery of the information world was so terrifying. Even Kayaba Akihiko seemed to be unable to fight back in front of him.
"What...what do you want me to do?"
If the content of the video is all true and the other party has firmly controlled Kayaba Akihiko, then what else does he need to do?
"In fact, I haven't figured out how to deal with Kayaba Akihiko. If he can be obedient, I might let him go. After all, destroying his program now always feels like an executioner."
"Of course, if he is unwilling to cooperate, I don't mind taking action directly. After all, it's just a procedure.
I may feel a little bit of psychological pressure in the next few days, but after a little adjustment, I won’t feel depressed for a few days.”
"No, no! He has already turned into a string of data, and you're still unwilling to let him go?" Kamishiro Rinko panicked in an instant, completely losing her previous calmness.
"The prerequisite for letting him go is that he is willing to cooperate. You know, after all, he caused the deaths of so many people. It's impossible that he is unwilling to pay any price, right?" Yushan Heren said slowly.
Rinko Kamishiro fell into deep thought. In fact, during the time she followed Kayaba Akihiko, she tried hard not to think about the justice of this experiment.
But she is a human being after all. No matter how cold-blooded she is, she knows that this matter is indeed the fault of Kayaba Akihiko, and she is one of the people who helped to commit the evil.
Although this may not be Kayaba Akihiko's original intention, he was also pushed forward by some external factors, but no matter what, it is undeniable that Kayaba Akihiko is the person primarily responsible for this death game.
The reason why Yushan Kazuto didn't want to deal with Kayaba Akihiko was not just because of human nature. He also needed Kayaba Akihiko as a negative example to warn others.
The opponent's methods were incredibly advanced. Even though Kayaba Akihiko had achieved information immortality, he was still firmly suppressed under the Five Finger Mountain.
If you are unwilling to cooperate, you will be completely destroyed, and not even a trace of information will be left.
Kamishiro Rinko closed her eyes.
Chapter 1126: Kayaba Akihiko's Past
"Tell me, what do you need me to do?"
Kamishiro Rinko looked like she had already accepted her fate.
"Cooperate with me and control Kayaba Akihiko." Yushan Kazuto said.
"Haven't you already controlled him?" Rinko Kamishiro asked back.
"What I mean is, let him be obedient and become a tool in the future. In return, I will allow his program to exist for fifty years." Yushan Heren said.
Kamishiro Rinko blinked slightly. Hayama Kazuto was really very cold-hearted. Even if his goal was achieved, he would only allow Kayaba Akihiko's program to exist for fifty years.
Of course, judging from his age, Kayaba Akihiko is now thirty years old. In another fifty years, he will be eighty years old, which can be considered as a natural death.
Being able to maintain it for fifty years is much better than Yushan Heren directly erasing his information now.
"I think this is not difficult for you to do, right?" said Rinko Kamishiro.
"Yes, that's true." Yushan Kazuto did not deny it.
"But I don't want to manipulate other people's minds, even if they are just a program."
Even though Hui-chan always likes to make Yushan Kazuto angry, Yushan Kazuto would only threaten her a few words at most and had no real intention of reforming her.
This is the case for programs developed by Kazuto Ueyama himself, such as Hui-chan, not to mention the existence of Kayaba Akihiko.
Kamishiro Rinko was silent for a long time before she said, "I understand."
She also knew that once Yushan and Renren decided to transform Kayaba Akihiko, it would be like opening a Pandora's box, which would cause endless harm, so Yushan and Renren only gave two choices.
From this point of view, Yushan Kazuto seems to be principled. At least he will not destroy his bridges after crossing the river like the original behind-the-scenes supporters of Kayaba Akihiko.
"So, what is my specific mission?"
"I will arrange for you to talk to Kayaba Akihiko. I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer." Yushan Kazuto said.
Kamishiro Rinko blinked, and finally nodded slightly: "Yeah."
With another snap of the fingers, the picture on the projector changed, and a slight sound of electricity came from the headphones.
Seeing Kayaba Akihiko sitting on the stool with his eyes somewhat lifeless, Kamishiro Rinko couldn't help but call out, "Akihiko."
The familiar shout immediately made Kayaba Akihiko react. He looked at the TV. At some point, the image of Kamishiro Rinko appeared on the TV.
"Rinko?" Kayaba Akihiko called out cautiously.
"It's me. I'm talking to you." said Rinko Kamishiro.
Kayaba Akihiko took a deep breath and stared at Kamishiro Rinko. She seemed to be in good condition, but he didn't know why Yushan Kazuto would arrange for him to meet with Kamishiro Rinko.
"Are you okay?"
I originally wanted to ask about Kamishiro Rinko's purpose, but when the words came to my lips, they turned into concern.
Looking at the situation on the screen, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but smile slightly. As expected, Kamishiro Rinko occupied a considerable position in Kayaba Akihiko's heart. This time, it was estimated that it was a sure win.
……
"How did the talk go?" Yushan Kazuto appeared in front of Kayaba Akihiko.
