"Hiss!"
The sound of the electronic door opening echoed in the corridor.
Kikuoka Seijiro, who was waiting in the corridor, turned his head and looked in the direction of the electronic door. Then he saw Rozen walking out of the ward with a blank expression.
Kikuoka Seijiro muttered a few words in his heart and then stepped forward.
"Is it done?"
Kikuoka Seijiro asked Rozen.
But Rozen didn't answer.
"I have one more thing to ask for your help."
Rozen looked at Kikuoka Seijiro and said with an indifferent expression.
Kikuoka Seijiro raised his eyebrows slightly.
"What is it?"
The national agent obviously didn't have the intention to agree so casually, so he asked cautiously.
Rozen didn't care.
"I want to see the large server used by SAO that is still in operation."
Rozen made his request.
"You want to see the server?"
Kikuoka Seijiro was stunned.
"Yes."
Rozen nodded without hesitation.
Since he planned to solve the mystery of why the 300 players, including Asuna, hadn't woken up yet, he had to take a look at the server that was still in operation.
After clearing the game, the server should have stopped operating, but it was still in operation, which proved that it played a role in imprisoning the minds of the three hundred Players, including Yasna, in an unknown place.
Rozen planned to start with the server to see if he could find any clues.
Although Rozen didn't have much expertise in this area, he knew that if he used Virtual Aether to strengthen his brain, it would be comparable to the computing power of a super-intelligent computer, he might be able to think of a way to do something.
It's just …
"You should know that if you touch the server casually, it is likely to cause serious problems, right?"
Kikuoka Seijiro was silent for a while and immediately answered.
"In the past, we have tried to do something to SAO's server to free the Players from the game. But first, the level of the server designed by Kayaba Akihiko was too high, and we couldn't easily hack into it. Secondly, even if we could hack into it, we didn't want to trigger the defense mechanism and cause the death of 10,000 Players. So, we didn't dare to act rashly. It's probably the same situation now."
Rozen naturally understood what Kikuoka Seijiro wanted to say.
Considering the safety of the three hundred Players, the server was indeed like a black hole that couldn't be touched at all.
And Rozen had also considered all of these.
"Who is maintaining the server now?"
Rozen didn't answer again.
Kikuoka Seijiro looked at Rozen, who had been asking questions calmly, but he was worried again.
According to the file, the boy in front of him was only sixteen years old, but the maturity and calmness he showed was even better than him. He really shouldn't be underestimated.
Kikuoka Seijiro no longer regarded Rozen as a young boy, but he talked to him in a tone as if he was his equal.
"SAO's server used to be set up on the fifth floor of Argus's headquarters, but that company has now closed down due to the huge debt from the development fees and compensation for the SAO incident."
"Argus."
Argus was only one of the many weak game development companies a few years ago. Later, because of Kayaba Akihiko's participation, it developed into the largest game development company in the industry. The company was famous for paying attention to the rights and interests of the Players. It was also the company that developed and operated SAO. Now that SAO became a death game, of course, it had to bear all the responsibility.
It was only natural for the company to declare bankruptcy.
However, the server must be maintained, otherwise, if something went wrong, it would be a big problem.
So …
"The company that has been entrusted to maintain SAO's server is a comprehensive electronic instrument manufacturer called RECT. Their stealth technology research department has excellent technology. They have been responsible for the maintenance of the server since Argus went bankrupt. Even the work of transferring the Players' files is done by them. Otherwise, it's unclear whether we can successfully obtain the files of some Players, including you."
Kikuoka Seijiro said such a thing.
Then …
"If you really want to see the server, I can help you ask for their opinion." Kikuoka Seijiro suddenly said: "I don't think they will object."
"Oh?" Rozen looked at Kikuoka Seijiro and asked: "Why do you say that?"
"It's simple." Kikuoka Seijiro smiled and said: "Because the CEO of RECT is Shozo Yuki."
Yuki?
Could it be …
"He is the father of Akina Yuki."
Kikuoka Seijiro said the truth.
.....
After that, Rozen went back with Kikuoka Seijiro in a car.
On the way, according to the previous agreement, Rozen told Kikuoka Seijiro the whole process of the last battle between him and Kikuoka Akihiko with the ID Heathcliff, so that Kikuoka Seijiro could obtain more information than he had in the past.
Kikuoka Seijiro seemed to want to analyze the location of Kayuba Akihiko, who was still missing, and arrest him.
However, that had nothing to do with Rozen.
Rozen just told Kikuoka Seijiro the information he knew according to the agreement. As for how Kikuoka Seijiro wanted to use the information, it had nothing to do with Rozen.
Of course, Kikuoka Seijiro also wanted to know if Rozen really didn't know that he had been missing for two months and only woke up now. But Rozen naturally wouldn't let Kikuoka Seijiro have his way. Kikuoka Seijiro began to believe that Rozen really didn't know anything.
"Maybe Kayuba Akihiko was not convinced after losing to me, so he took me away, let me continue to sleep, and did some unknown human experiment."
Rozen just said those words casually, which made Kikuoka Seijiro smile bitterly.
However, if Rozen really didn't know anything, then that possibility couldn't be ruled out.
Therefore, Kikuoka Seijiro also asked Rozen to go back with him to do a comprehensive physical examination.
Rozen didn't object.
Anyway, Kikuoka Seijiro certainly wouldn't be able to find anything. Moreover, Rozen could also use this as a bargaining chip and let Kikuoka Seijiro do a few things for him.
This made Kikuoka Seijiro really doubt whether Rozen was really only sixteen years old. How could he be so cunning and scheming to this extent?
However, Kikuoka Seijiro still helped Rozen.
"I have already contacted Mr. Kiecheng. You should be able to meet him in a few days. You should be prepared to meet your future father."
Kikuoka Seijiro's malicious words made Rozen's mouth twitch. He wanted to slap him twice.
In this way, Rozen was sent home by Kikuoka Seijiro and returned to the Kiriya home.
