Two Hundred and Twenty-Three November 6, 2022

From the atmosphere at the dining table, it can be seen that the relationship between the three brothers and sisters of the Kiritani family is not very good.

No.

To be more precise, it should be said that the relationship between Suguha, who is a younger sister, and the two older brothers is not very good.

In fact, when Luo Zhen was first adopted and brought into this home, the relationship among Luo Zhen, Kazuto, and Suguha was still very good.

Even though Luo Zhen hid in the room every day, Kazuto and Suguha still often dragged him out of the room, playing for a whole day.

At that time, the three of them were like real brothers and sisters, loving each other very much.

At least, compared to when they were in Akabane's house, Luo Zhen, Kazuto and Suguha are more like brothers and sisters, there is no topic of magic, no clansmen pointing around, and some are just getting along as ordinary brothers and sisters.

When the three were in elementary school, the grandfather who was keen on kendo began to educate the three of them, and took the three to a nearby dojo, preparing for the three brothers and sisters to learn kendo.

This is the turning point of the relationship between the three.

Due to continuing to practice magic, Luo Zhen's physical fitness was as low as ever, and he had no interest in kendo, so he did not respect his grandfather's arrangement and obediently learn kendo.

Kazuto didn't know if he was influenced by Luo Zhen. After getting in touch with the game, he became obsessed with the Internet and started tinkering with computers. He didn't want to learn kendo at all.

For this reason, the grandfather was furious, and even prepared to give Luo Zhen and Kazuto a severe lesson, which scared Suguha to tears.

As a result, Luo Zhen and Kazuto indulged in the Internet world, and Suguha began to devote himself to kendo under the arrangement of his grandfather, even after the death of his grandfather.

In this way, Luo Zhenhe and Kazuhito have a lot of common language, and the relationship is getting better and better. On the other hand, Suguha devoted himself to the way of swordsmanship, and felt the self-deprecation of the two older brothers who were addicted to the Internet. Feeling resentful, I no longer play with the two as in the past, and the distance between the two is getting farther and farther, and finally even the daily conversations are constantly decreasing, and it has become what it is now.

Of course, there are other reasons besides this.

But, that's all for later.

For this reason, Tong Gucui worried a lot, but in the end she still felt that she could not intervene casually, so she had no choice but to give up.

At the moment, Tong Gucui could only ask in this way.

"Today is Sunday, you don't have to go to class, do you have any arrangements?"

This sentence is actually enough to ask Kazuto and Suguha.

After all, Luo Zhenke is on leave of absence from school and doesn't need to go to class.

However, Tong Gucui still treated everyone equally and questioned everyone present, causing the three of them to raise their heads slightly.

"That..." Kazuto said with eyes dodging: "I need to fix some programs, I will stay in the room later and won't come out."

The implication is to prepare to stay bored in the room and play games all the time.

"...I'll go to school later." Suguha didn't raise his head, and said calmly, "There are activities in the club."

The implication is that he is not going to stay at home with his two elder brothers.

And Luo Zhen is much more direct.

"Today is the game server opening day that everyone is looking forward to. How can I not be the first to go online?"

There was no intention of avoiding it at all, Luo Zhen said such words bluntly, causing the people beside him to nod unceasingly, and waited until Tong Gucui gave him a glare before quickly lowering his head and continuing to eat.

"Really, you child..."

Tong Gucui prepared to preach to Luo Zhen as if complaining.

only…

"Is the game really that fun?"

Suguha's sudden utterance caused a slight change in the atmosphere of the scene.

Of course, that's not a good change.

"Obviously my brothers are so smart. Brother Qinghe can skip a grade to get a doctorate. Brother Heren can also edit programs by himself. Why do you have to stay at home and play games?"

Suguha didn't look at Luo Zhen, just bowed her head and said so.

Seeing this, Kazuto showed a look of not knowing what to say.

Only Luo Zhen, after being silent for a while, replied like this.

"It's nothing, just because I like it very much."

This is the only reason Luo Zhen can give.

As for another reason, Luo Zhen can't say it here.

After all, even if she told Suguha that she wanted something in the next game, and she needed to use it to become stronger, she wouldn't understand, would she?

then…

"……Yeah?"

Suguha didn't say anything more, just put down the bowl and chopsticks.

"I'm stuffed."

Leaving such words behind, Suguha picked up the bamboo sword bag on the side and walked out the door.

"Wait, Suguha."

Tong Gucui hurriedly chased after her, turned her head and glared at Luo Zhen before leaving.

Only Luo Zhen and Kazuto were left sitting at the dining table.

"It's troublesome..." He Ren said to Luo Zhen with a sigh: "You know that Xiao Zhi hates games, can't you be more tactful?"

"What's the use of being euphemistic?" Luo Zhen turned his eyes to Kazuto, and said, "Could it be that you can say in front of others, "No, actually I hate games, I just play casually." ? "

"This..." Kazuto was suddenly dumbfounded.

This earned Luo Zhen contempt.

"Obviously, I also like games very much. If I was asked, I would definitely not be able to say something against my will, and let me be tactful."

Hearing this, Kazuto could only turn his head away in embarrassment.

but…

"Today, "that" will start server operation, right? "

Kazuto's eyes suddenly became bright.

"Yeah, it's finally officially in operation. It's been a long time for me."

Luo Zhen shrugged, but his words also revealed considerable expectations.

November 6, 2o22.

On this day, the world will usher in different changes.

Luo Zhen and He Ren looked at each other, then suddenly accelerated the speed of eating, and after sweeping away the breakfast in front of them, they put down their rice bowls at the same time.

""I'm stuffed! ""

After finishing speaking, the two left their seats at the same time and rushed upstairs.

Before returning to the room, Luo Zhen and Kazuto left a word for each other.

"See you at one o'clock in the afternoon."

"Well, see you at one o'clock in the afternoon."

After finishing speaking, the two entered the room at the same time and closed the door.

…………

After returning to the room, Luo Zhen first turned off the computer that had been hanging up all the time, and then picked up an item on the host that was placed aside.

It is a streamlined helmet that can completely cover the head to the face.

The helmet is mechanical, with various interfaces and indicator lights on it, telling others that this is not a helmet for head protection.

There are countless signal components buried inside it, and it can directly connect with the user's brain through the complex electric fields generated by these components, so that the user does not need to use their actual eyes and ears. The internal visual cortex and auditory cortex give the user the feeling of "seeing" and "hearing".

Of course, in addition to hearing and sight, touch, taste, and smell, the so-called five senses, can all be read and reproduced.

Its body is a game console.

Its name is —— .
