[Sword Art Online] Qing Tong

Zao Qing has never been a brave and strong person, neither now nor in the past.

[five years old]

"Mom's Xiao Zaoqing, you're going to go to school from today~" The gentle mother straightened Zaoqing's untucked skirt, then leaned down and kissed Xiao Zaoqing's forehead with a smile, "My family Little Zaoqing has grown up~"

At this time, the cute and cute girl Zaoqing opened her watery eyes, looked at the mother in front of her pitifully, and asked softly.

"What do you go to school for?"

"If you go to school, you can meet a lot of cute children like Zaoqing. Zaoqing can meet more people and get to know your own friends. Everyone can go to play together~ It's getting late, let's go, Dad is waiting What about us."

Zaoqing blinked her big eyes ignorantly, and obediently followed her mother.

No matter what, just follow mom, mom will always be with Zaoqing and protect Zaoqing, although Zaoqing is not happy about the fact that the bad dad always fights against Zaoqing, but it is the victory of every battle for mom Otherwise, I'd better use the tolerance of the winner and not reveal the details of Mensao's father's frustration.

Little Zaoqing hides behind her mother, smiling like a cunning little fox.

When she arrived at school, her mother and father took Zaoqing's little hand and led her to the teacher who greeted the new students.

"Mr. Fujimura, thank you for your hard work. This is our daughter, early Qing."

"Ah, what a beautiful and lovely girl~" A smiling woman squatted in front of Zao Qing, "I am Teacher Fujimura, can you tell the teacher what your name is?"

Zaoqing nervously glanced at her parents, seeing their encouraging eyes, said timidly to the teacher, "Mr. Fujimura, my name is Hinohara Zaoqing... It's the first time we meet, please give me your advice..."

"Oh, what a cute child!" The smiling woman exclaimed, and motioned to an older girl next to her to take Zaoqing to find a freshman class of the same age, then stood up and turned to Zaoqing who was reluctant to part with her. Parents, "Then don't worry, Mrs. Hinodehara, Mr. Hinodehara, we will take care of Zaoqing."

"Hmm... I'm sorry for Mr. Fujimura..."

At this time, Zao Qing was timidly following the young lady to the teaching building. The classroom looked like a monster with its mouth open, so Zao Qing couldn't help but accumulate tears in his eyes.

"Sa, this is where you will study for the next year. Hey, Zaoqing is such a brave child. He didn't cry when he left his parents. In the days to come, he must get along well with the children around him~" Lead the way The little sister sent Zaoqing into the classroom with a smile and turned to leave.

"Well...thank you, sister..." Zao Qing watched the young lady leave, and the fear and uneasiness in her heart became more intense.

Leave mom and dad... don't leave early in the morning...

There are children who are afraid of going to school, and there are naturally some who are not. As for Zaoqing, after being brought into class by girls, she is surrounded by a group of little dolls who can't wait to enter school.

"Hey, what's your name!" An arrogant little boy took Zaoqing's soft hand rudely, and then pinched her face.

"Hi...Hinohara...Zaoqing..." Zaoqing wanted to find her parents, but was blocked by several other people, and her eyes gradually filled with tears.

"Zaoqing? Hey, Sanye, look, this is a doll. Its hands are soft, and its face is even worse!"

So several hands hit her face together.

"Really, it's so soft!"

"It looks even cuter than that Mingxiang just now!"

The young Zao Qing didn't dare to do anything, only knew that there were men and women around her, but they were not as kind as her father, nor as gentle as her mother. hurt myself.

It hurts so much... Woohoo, so scary... Mom and Dad, Zaoqing must be obedient, come and save Zaoqing...

"Why are you crying? If you cry again, there will be no parents to save you. Your parents will throw you here after they don't want you. This is a school! You can only listen to us at school!"

It turns out that going to school means being abandoned by parents... It turns out that neither father nor mother wants to wake up early...

The ignorant Zao Qing could only let the other group of people touch her, but the tears she shed helplessly aroused more people's onlookers...

That afternoon, the Hinohara couple, who were at work, received a call from the school.

Early in the morning, disappeared from school.

In the early morning of the next day, someone found the unconscious Zaoqing on a mountain not far from the school. Waking up in the tears of her parents, Zaoqing was confirmed by the doctor to have a phobia of strangers.

【13 years old】

"How is it, Zaoqing, are you feeling alright?" He opened his eyes blankly, but what he saw was his mother who was watching anxiously and uneasy.

Eh?Mother? !

Zaoqing had a headache, and she inhaled slightly from the corner of her mouth, and then gently wiped off the sweat on her forehead with a pair of gentle hands.

"The doctor said not to move suddenly, slow down, early morning, is there any discomfort, tell mom?" The woman in front of her carefully adjusted the position of her neck.

"...doctor?" There was a lot of doubt in the immature voice, but the eyes of the woman in front of him, who were originally happy because the child woke up, were suddenly filled with flicker of panic and anxiety.

"Ah... Mom called the doctor uncle, don't worry, no one else is here... Zao Qing is still at home"

Home?

Looking around, the doubts in the eyes of the young girl in the early morning are even stronger. A strange woman with flickering words has become the mother in his subconscious, and a place that he has never seen before is subconsciously familiar and close...

What's going on here? !

"Am I... am I sick..." Zaoqing murmured.

"How could it be...Zaoqing has always been a healthy child~" The woman in front of her was still trying to hide something, and Qingchen raised her weak arm, feeling powerless again.

"If I'm sick, why don't you take me to the hospital, Mom?"

The woman opened her mouth in surprise, covered her right hand, then leaned over to Zao Qing and asked.

"Eh?! Morning... Morning morning, are you going to the hospital?!"

————&—————

"Congratulations, the preliminary judgment shows that your daughter does not have the previous rejection and fear of strangers, but she still has slight nerve sensitivity in some places where things are densely distributed, but it is within the normal range."

Zaoqing looked blankly at the comforting doctor in white coat and the parents who were so surprised that they shed tears, feeling a little confused.

The doctor continued to diagnose.

"Also, I suspect that your daughter's recovery may be caused by forgetting the deepest memory in her heart after the violent brain impact. At present, only that part is lost... Although it is better to have a complete memory, But you'd better not remind her of that memory, otherwise she may return to her closed state."

"Understood, we will pay attention... Thank you, thank you doctor!" The woman leaning on her husband's arms burst into tears, and then clutched her hand even harder.

Zaoqing obediently did not make any speeches.

————&—————

Quietly went home under the leadership of her parents, without any superfluous performance.

Seeing Zaoqing coldly expressing that she was going upstairs and not going to have dinner, the woman let go of the hand that wanted to hug Qingqian somewhat dejectedly.

"It's okay, Meihui, Zaoqing has already recovered, and she will get better gradually." The tall man comforted her trembling body.

"I know, I know... my poor child..."

…………

This is a place that is obviously unfamiliar but everywhere is unfamiliar.

In the early morning, when I wanted to find a place to look in the mirror, my feet involuntarily turned to the opposite side of my bedroom—a bathroom that was obviously prepared for children.

Carefully stand in front of the mirror.

In the floor-to-ceiling mirror, there was an immature face of a slender girl. After inheriting the good genes of her parents, she showed a sweet silhouette. From an adult's point of view, she should be of yellow race, but her blond hair was slightly curled. Falling on his shoulders, only the same blue eyes as his father would not surprise Qingqian even more.

The strange effect of atavistic inheritance...

Such a sentence popped out subconsciously in the brain, making Zao Qing frowned tightly.

Is it another hallucination that has lasted for many years...

The head began to ache again.

...Obviously I should be buried in the fire...Because of my appearance, my whole family died tragically, and the people around me were also miserable. That appearance is... ah, what is my appearance... What does it look like?

I quickly pulled back my thoughts, no, the familiar feeling of drifting spirits came again...

Hurry... I can't control it...

[Golden slightly curly hair, blue eyes...]

No, no, this is what it looks like now, right?Obviously it shouldn't be like this, why...

[After my parents and grandparents died, I wrapped myself in a scarf, refusing to let others see my face, and I didn’t want to have too much contact with the people around me, so that my parents were very upset. sad……】

Huh?Aren't the parents already dead? How can you be sad?

【No, parents are not mom and dad, mom and dad are something else...】

Huh? ...Ah? ...

Zao Qing rubbed her head vigorously, and the girl in the mirror also rubbed her head vigorously. The pain caused by too much force filled her eyes with tears, and she looked indescribably lazy and cute. ...

Like a tiny Persian cat.

He sighed slightly.

Forget it, it's like bullying an innocent child, even though this child is just him.

Zaoqing sat on the ground a little discouraged, staring at the printed tiles in a daze.

Ever since I was in a coma when I was a child, I seem to have disappeared... Inexplicably, I have a lot of memories...

Didn't the doctor say that he has recovered...why...it started again...
