Capítulo 193: Ultimate social death
No one knows whether Takasugi Ki cheated, but judging from his performance in the exhibition matches from the beginning, his likelihood is obviously the highest.
Moreover, his results are indeed somewhat out of the ordinary, occupying the first place with quite terrifying scores in all four games.
On stage, the host continued with apologies, saying, "I'm very sorry, players, I didn't expect such errors to occur halfway through. So, as compensation, all players present can receive an additional 500 yen game voucher, which can be used to purchase any game at a corresponding discount."
The money isn't much, but it's heartfelt.
With this, people's resentment towards cheaters grew even stronger.
The host continued, "We still can't find out who the cheater is right now, but if he's willing to come forward voluntarily, perhaps he can avoid jail time due to mitigating circumstances, so if this player sees this, I hope you can come forward voluntarily."
When Takasugi Ki heard that the police had already been called and evidence was being preserved, his brain buzzed and he couldn't hear anything.
Fraud?
His actions actually escalated to fraud?
He never thought of such a thing.
He just wanted to make some money.
How could this happen?
If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have done these things.
Is he going to jail?
But once he goes to jail, he'll forever be labeled as a former convict after his release.
Finding any job will become extremely difficult in the future, and by then, he'll truly have nowhere to go.
But in an instant, the host said there's still room for redemption, as long as he confesses voluntarily, he might avoid jail time.
At that moment, his brain instantly heated up, feeling like he's grasping at a lifeline.
"I'm sorry! I cheated, I'm really sorry."
Below the stage, as well as on the podium, except for the staff and Takayuki who had already known, everyone else fell silent.
Especially Taiga Oono.
He widened his eyes, appearing somewhat incredulous.
Just now, he thought this person named Takasugi Ki was worthy of respect.
But not long after, he turned out to be a cheater?
Takasugi Ki stood up in panic, bowing repeatedly to Takayuki, to Taiga Oono, and to the players below the stage, apologizing incessantly, begging for forgiveness.
Now he just hopes he won't go to jail.
But Takayuki and the others seemed very indifferent at the moment.
"For cheating players, we will never condone it, because it destroys the trust between players, and it renders useless the sweat and effort of those who strive hard. So, Mr. Takasugi Ki, your voluntary confession may be considered by the police as evidence for lenient treatment, but we reserve the right to continue prosecution. Now, if you still have some self-respect, please leave on your own."
"Get out, you bastard! You've disappointed us! "
"You scoundrel! You're a disgrace to Adachi Ward! "
"Don't even say this guy is from Adachi Ward, I don't even know him, he must have come from another area just to prevent anyone from recognizing him."
Several players in the audience who seemed excited shouted loudly.
Of course, those who spoke first were the ones inciting.
But the effect was excellent, immediately making players realize that cheating in electronic games is just as serious as doping in the Olympics, both are absolute prohibited means.
And if someone really dares to take the risk, an individual's power will definitely be crushed by big companies.
Look at Takasugi Ki, it's a clear example.
And the awards ceremony resumed after Takasugi Ki left in disgrace.
This time, it's the real beginning.
And those fourth-place players who hadn't received awards before were pleasantly surprised to find out that they were actually third.
It turns out this was planned beforehand.
Compared to Taiga Oono and a few other players who were already in the top three, the fourth-place players were even more excited.
The prize money, originally only 100,000 yen, suddenly increased tenfold, which was simply ten times the joy.
Even the players who were previously ranked eleventh were equally happy.
In an instant, they felt that Takasugi Ki's disgrace was actually a big gain for them.
After experiencing twists and turns, Taiga Oono was much calmer.
At the awards ceremony, he didn't have much performance, just thanked the organizers, as well as his family, saying those more conventional words.
Now he just felt a little emotional.
It turns out that electronic games can also have so many extra complications.
Not everyone really loves games as sincerely as he does. Some people really just see electronic games as tools for profit, and they even use very malicious methods to profit.
Naturally, all players in the top ten received unanimous encouragement from other players. They truly deserved their titles.
Then, as agreed, Takayuki arranged for Taiga Oono, as well as the first-place winner of Metroid, Taiga Oono, and the second-place winner, to conduct follow-up interviews and recording activities.
Of course, these were left to the production team of Tokyo TV station to handle.
With three checks for tens of millions of yen that can be cashed at any time, and a twenty-one-day family trip to Hawaii, Taiga Oono returned home with a nervous heart.
Afternoon turned into evening after a series of events, by the time he returned home, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon. Several members of the production team followed behind Taiga Oono, and they would also witness the scene of Taiga Oono and his mother embracing each other excitedly.
Seeing that her child can bring convenience to life through electronic games, perhaps his mother would also feel proud.
