However, when Hongo transferred out of the company, Uruno felt empty and indifferent. When news broke that Hongos company had been shut down, Uruno became determined to find him. He eventually succeeded in locating Hongo, who was now jobless and homeless, accompanied only by his drones. To keep Hongo close, Uruno offered to purchase him for $50,000.
