"Mr. Mao Chang, actually, I've been wondering since I came in. Logically speaking, such a large territory and so much equipment should require a lot of researchers, but I think you don't have enough here.”
Upon hearing Osamu Uesugi mention this matter, Hayaba Akihiko's expression darkened. He sat on the chair and held the handle as he sighed. Then, he spoke slowly.
" Actually, it was quite lively at the beginning of the project. At that time, everyone was full of confidence and wanted to do something big to shock the world, but…"
Kazuhiko Hayaba turned his head to look outside through the window, and Shinshiro Rinko took the opportunity to continue the conversation.
"However, researching the complete stealth technology is not that easy. During this period, we spent a lot of money, manpower, and material resources, but the progress of the project is very slow.”
Speaking up to this point, Shinshiro Rinko sighed.
" After that, the higher-ups of the company, who couldn't see any benefits, decided to withdraw their funds and no longer support us. Most of the researchers were transferred away one by one, and only a small number of them insisted.”
Looking up at the bleak situation in the research lab, Kamishiro Rinko's eyes turned red.
" Moreover, without funding, the project can't continue. Don't look at the equipment outside. It's actually all equipment that was eliminated from the previous generation. The researchers are leaving one after another. We... We're really at the end of our rope.”
After saying that, the strong-looking woman finally shed tears. Beside her, Hayaba Akaihiko also pulled his lover into his arms. The cruel reality defeated his beautiful dream, and the only sound left in the room was the sound of Kamishiro Rinko sobbing.
After observing the general situation of the research lab, Osamu Uesugi felt that he could wrap things up, so he said to the two people who were hugging each other.
"Perhaps I can help you.”
"Hmm? Don't joke around, Uesugi-kun. You're still a young boy. You won't understand these things.”
"I mean, I can help you. I can provide you with funds and researchers.”
Osamu Uesugi was not angered by Hayaba and Kazuhiko's contempt. He only emphasized once again that he was willing to help.
"Really? Uesugi-kun, can you really help us?”
After confirming that Osamu Uesugi was not joking, Hayaba Kyokihiko felt as if he had found a life-saving straw, and an extremely excited expression appeared on his face.
"But, can you really handle so many resources, Shangshan-kun?”
Kanshiro Rinko, who was wiping her tears, also voiced her doubts. There didn't seem to be anything unusual about the handsome young man.
"Please, do I not look like a rich person? After all, my surname is Shang Shan. Do you understand?”
Osamu Uesugi complained to the two of them helplessly.
"Uesugi…Uesugi…Could you be from the Uesugi family?”
He repeated Osamu Uesugi's surname a few times, and Hayaba Kyokihiko uncertainly gave his answer. There was a little anticipation in his heart.
"Yes, it's the wealthiest and most powerful Shangshan family. I'm the eldest young master of the Shangshan family. Don't we look alike? Hmm?"
After he finished speaking, he saw that the two of them still had incredulous expressions on their faces. Osamu Uesugi felt as if he had eaten Olly's food. He could not figure out what was wrong with him.
At this moment, Osamu Uesugi was no longer just an ordinary young man in the eyes of Hayaba Kazuhiko and Kazuhiko Kazuya. He was now a god of fortune that was emitting golden light.
"Then I want to ask you, why did you decide to help me? After all, isn't my plan very difficult to realize?”
After calming down, Hayaba said again. If it was just a simple financial support, there were many big bosses waiting to invest in him, but that was not what Hayaba wanted, because the technology developed would not be able to build a virtual world in the game according to his own ideas.
Those investors simply wanted to make huge profits and earn money from the common people (like leeks), but Hayaba wanted someone who supported his dream and recognized his efforts. Only such a person was worth his effort.
"Well…if you want to know my purpose, I also want to see the world in Mr. Hayata's heart. It's enough to attract me to experience a different life in the game.”
When he said this, Osamu Uesugi revealed the shy smile that a young man should have, but in Hayaba's eyes, it was the strongest support for his dream.
Alright, I accept your help."
"In that case, please take care of me in the future, Uesugi-kun.
Saitama Prefecture Kawagoshi Key High School
When it was close to evening, most of the students in the school had already gone home from school, leaving only a small number of people on duty and club activities in the school.
In the activity room of the Kendo Club, two black-clothed swordsmen in full armor were fighting fiercely.
Ah--
Ha--
Ah--
The short and powerful shouts of the two men as they swung their swords echoed in the room for a long time.
The tall male swordsman held his sword with both hands and kept receiving the fierce attacks of the female swordsman. The two bamboo swords intersected in the air and produced a continuous crackling sound.
