Although they keep saying that Okabe Rintaro is not good here, in fact, those who know Makise Shoichi know that only when he truly values ​​a person, he will be willing to communicate more with the other person.

, no matter what the method is.

Makise Shoichi never thought that Okabe Rintaro was a mediocre person.

After all, how can a person who can enter Japan's top and even the world's top Tokyo Institute of Technology with excellent results be considered a mediocre person?

Not to mention, Okabe Rintaro also served as a researcher under Kayaba Akihiko.

Although the content of the work is insignificant, although Kayaba Akihiko's main target was Makise Kurisu, Rintaro Okabe was just pulled into the research laboratory by chance.

but.

Relying on Makise Shoichi's understanding of Kayaba Akihiko, this man who had become famous in the scientific research community before the real-time holographic projection technology was officially developed at that time could be said to have extremely high vision, and if Okabe Rintaro

Without good enough basic qualities, Okabe Rintaro might not even be qualified to serve as a guinea pig for Kayaba Akihiko.

What Akira Makise is most dissatisfied with about Rintaro Okabe is his naivety, his ordinary heart that is willing to accept the status quo, and his inability to bear the responsibility of too many people until now.

Makise Shoichi hated this kind of Okabe Rintaro.

If his daughter had not fallen in love with someone like Rintaro Okabe, and if he had not been able to repair his relationship with his daughter because of Rintaro Okabe, I would probably never pay attention to someone like Rintaro Okabe, who seemed to be a middle school student, for the rest of his life.

, the life and death of a man whose every move is not formal, but in fact his heart is extremely sensitive.

For a person who doesn't even understand himself or what he wants, what can others do for you?

Inside the future props laboratory.

The phone vibrated again.

This time, it was Makise Shoichi’s own mobile phone.

The other side.

After the shooting, Rintaro Okabe, who was taking a rest, noticed Makise Shoichi looking at the screen of his mobile phone, frowning, and then got up and walked down the first floor.

It looked like he was going to answer the phone.

After a while.

Makise Akira went upstairs again and found Makise Kurisu. After briefly explaining a few words and saying hello to Emiya, he drove his car and quickly left the set.

Rintaro Okabe didn't care about this. After all, Makise Shoichi was no better than him and Kurisu. He came to the shooting with pay after getting permission from Kayaba Akihiko.

As a well-known scholar, Makise Shoichi does have a lot of work on weekdays, which must be handled by him personally. Therefore, it is normal for him to occasionally have to leave after a phone call.

Just when Okabe Rintaro was still rejoicing that this 'annoying' guy finally left.

After Makise Shoichi left Akihabara, he drove to Ueno along the established route.

Future fantasy.

There is a laboratory full of various equipment on the second floor.

As soon as Makise Shoichi walked in, he glanced around and saw Kayaba Akihiko sitting at a desk in the back, using a computer and looking through some information.

Without any unnecessary nonsense, Akira Makise stepped forward and asked straight to the point.

"Kayaba, why did you call me to come over?"

"There is one thing I think I need to tell you."

Kayaba Akihiko stood up and naturally put his hands on the pockets of his white coat: "I heard something. You seem to be an actor in the crew now?"

"..."

A few minutes later.

Makise Shoichi and Kayaba Akihiko sat face to face at the desk, with a glass of boiled water in front of them.

Regarding being an actor, Makise Shoichi actually doesn't feel there is anything to be ashamed of.

Isn’t it normal for scientists to have one or two side jobs and hobbies?

certainly.

Of course, Kayaba Akihiko's purpose of calling Makise Shoichi here was not just to ask about Makise Shoichi's guest appearance. He looked at Makise Shoichi who looked indifferent and asked: "Dr. Nakahachi, are you

You must have heard of Alexis Leskinen, right?”

"Alexis Leskinen?"

Makise Akira thought for a while, and with his excellent memory, he quickly recalled the identity of the person mentioned by Kayaba Akihiko.

"A few years ago, I met him at a seminar. I remember that this seemed to be a professor from Victor Condolia University. His specialty was the same as Kurisu.

Is it brain science?”

"Well, you're right."

Kayaba Akihiko held the water glass and said calmly: "When the real-time holographic projection technology was not officially completed, through the introduction of some people, I had a period of communication with Professor Lesginen. Professor Lesginen did indeed

He is a very great expert in brain science.

Some time ago, I was invited to attend a party abroad. There, I met Professor Lesginen again. He was very interested in the fact that real-time holographic projection technology can actually connect with the human brain nerves.

,So, at that party, I chatted with him for a while.

Coincidentally, when I attended the party, I happened to bring your daughter, Makise Kurisu, and my other assistant, Okabe Rintaro, and Professor Leskinen and Kurisu were very interested in it.

We had a lot of fun talking about brain science, and in front of me, she praised Kurisu more than once for being a genius born for brain science."

Speaking of this, Kayaba Akihiko has been quietly observing the changes in Makise Shoichi's expression.

In the early years, Kayaba Akihiko, who had some contact with Makise Shoichi, also heard some news: The relationship between Makise Shoichi and his daughter, Makise Kurisu, has never been good.

After initially recruiting Kurisu Makise into the laboratory of future fantasy, Kayaba Akihiko also confirmed that this news was indeed true.

Whenever he talks about Makise Shoichi, Kayaba Akihiko can detect the complicated emotional changes on Makise Kurisu's face, admiration, and at the same time a little bit of indescribable depression.

I don’t know how much time passed later.

Only then did Kayaba Akihiko receive the news that the relationship between Makise and his daughter was getting better, and Makise Shoichi also appeared in the future fantasy shortly afterwards and said hello to him.

Although he didn't know what happened in the middle, Kayaba Akihiko absolutely needed to confirm Makise Shoichi's situation in person because of some "unfriendly" rumors in the past.

When Professor Lesginen praised Makise Kurisu as a rare genius, Kayaba Akihiko noticed in Makise Shoichi complex emotions that were difficult to describe in words, and then all the emotions were relieved.

Akira Makise raised the corner of his mouth slightly, looked at Kayaba Akihiko and said slowly.

"Kurisu...is indeed a genius.

When she was a child, Kurisu liked to listen to me talk about various physics knowledge. When I grew up, I discovered that this process was no longer unilaterally explained to Kurisu by me. Kurisu occasionally also

Will raise various opinions and questions of her own.

Later, when she was a teenager and entered high school, I found that if it was just a discussion, the whole process had evolved into Kurisu's unilateral refutation of me.

At that time, I was convinced that my daughter was a genius."

Akira Makise looked at his reflection in the water glass.

For Kurisu, if she is definitely not a good father, how could any father in this world gradually become dissatisfied with his daughter just because she repeatedly refutes her views?

Talk about it.

If it weren't for that kid Rintaro Okabe, I would probably have to wait a long time before I realize how much harm I have caused to Kurisu along the way.

Alienation, indifference, and finally disregard.

I am just like the scumbag in the story, without any emotion that a father should have.

indeed.

Makise Shoichi is definitely not a good father.

But Makise Shoichi’s daughter, Makise Kurisu, is definitely a rare genius in this world.

"Kayaba."

Makise Shoichi looked up again and suddenly laughed: "I used to always struggle with one thing: why are there geniuses in this world? Why is it that a person's decades of hard work and dedication are not as good as the same thing that only took a few years?

time man.

I am afraid that even if I spend my whole life, Makise Shoichi, I will not be able to come up with something that can compare with real-time holographic projection technology.

Kayaba Akihiko, you are barely thirty years old.

As for me, I am now in my forties and have already completed half of my life.

To be honest, for geniuses like you and people like me who can only rely on continuous hard work, I do feel envious and jealous in my heart.

I should definitely know how to do it before.

But now I can’t. After some things, I have figured out one thing. Being a scholar who can not only follow my heart but also cater to society is my original goal as Makise Shoichi. Now, even if the two cannot be done at the same time,

Yes, but being able to find my own value in the vast society is where I, Makise Shoichi, ultimately belong.

Therefore, I will not admit defeat."

Speaking of this, Makise Shoichi suddenly changed the subject.

"What's more, even if I, Makise Akira, can't compare to geniuses like you, my daughter, Makise Kurisu, with her talents, will definitely not be weaker than you."
