Chapter 778: Current ongoings, a stable and abnormal daily life (1/2)
In the end, Sugou got busted, every nasty thing he pulled got uncovered...
At first, he denied all wrongdoings. He tried to pin it on Kayaba, Cardinal System, and Nervegear. The things he did in his virtual world were all digital, it was hard to trace it to him. He decided to claim innocence until the end.
But, a certain true ancestor ain't having any of this. This guy had lewd intentions about his wife, he needed to be put in his place. So, in a dark night, something sneaked into the cell holding Sugou. The cops on duty that night reported hearing demonic wails and ghoulish whimpers. They jumped to the conclusion that the holding depot was haunted.
The next day, somebody went to check on Sugou. In the end, he confessed his crimes while sniveling and begging for the guards to charge him something. He reiterated that prison is the only safe place for him. It's evident that Sugou lost his marbles from the events of last night.
Actually, Sugou is still conscious. The ent.i.ty from last night told him that if Sugou walks free, he will haunted by the enigma in a nightmare that won't end with just waking up. He finally understood what a fate worse than death meant.
The 300 players who were imprisoned as lab subjects also got out before any real harm was done. With some counselling, it won't be hard for them to slowly escape the trauma of being trapped in virtual worlds.
Of course, with the loose ends more or less tied up. Players started talking about what happened in SAO. Wu Yan's name got thrown around, a lot, so much that people started asking questions. The constabels and investigators are all itching to find out who Wu Yan is. They wanted to know his background and etc...
However, all investigations failed to turn up any useful information, at least, until someone found Wu Yan's basic information.
The authorities were surprised the staff found Wu Yan's ident.i.ty when he was like the boogeyman, seriously, you can't even find a bank account tied to his name. They exchanged looks of exasperation. One day, the guy just turned up in front of them as if he wasn't bothered with hiding his ident.i.ty.
In any case, they had a ton of questions for Wu Yan. They asked so many questions Wu Yan couldn't keep up, he gave curt responses to handle the queries.
There are more issues he needed to solve. He didn't need additional problems tacked on top of that. It's Wu Yan's fault for being so famous in game, n.o.body can help him now...
Time ebbed on as SAO's matter slowly turned old news.
One clear morning...
”Papa! Wake up!”
A soft and tender voice called out to Wu Yan, waking this slob of a man. Scratch that, Wu Yan just tugged his blanket and he turned his b.u.t.t towards the one trying to wake him up.
”It's not that bright...”
”Papa!”
Yui in her onepiece dress chastized Wu Yan while pouting. She tugged Wu Yan's blanket as she tried to peel the fabric off Wu Yan.
”It's morning, mama is still waiting for you. Get up now!”
Yui's words fell into the ocean that is Wu Yan's laziness, she didn't get her desired response but she did get a bunch of mumbo jumbo from Wu Yan who went right back to sleep...
”Mou...”
Yui's cheeks puffed up like an angry squirrel. Her misty eyes were filled with slight rage.
With frustrated tears, she poked Wu Yan's cheek as she whispered into his ears.
”Mama is about to be swept up by another guy!”
”Over my dead body!”
Wu Yan jumped up from his bed like a released spring. He got into a stance on his bed, he looked around with a look that could kill. By the way, he's in a stance where he's ready to unleash serious Muai Thai whooping. He is a man who is ready to clean the HP of his opponent, his eyes were dead serious.
Wu Yan realized something and he slowly looked down at Yui who is tilting her head with an adorable smile on her face. She greeted him with a cheerful tone.
