My little brother and sister are so cute

The afternoon sun slowly shone into Shota's ward. He got up from the bed, watched the birds chirping on the windowsill, and lightly pressed his hand on the NERvGear, as if he was stroking Yui's head.

At this time, it was only an hour before Xiangta woke up.

"Do you like this world? Yui."

"What's the matter, brother?"

Kyosuke, who was peeling apples there, saw Shota's whisper, and asked curiously, "Who are you talking to?"

"My daughter, an AI, still lives in this helmet."

After Xiangta answered Kyosuke's question, he looked at him sitting by the bed and said, "Aren't you going to class today? Why don't you go?"

"It's still early... Hey, it's already about this time."

After looking at the time, Kyosuke didn't have time to ask about his daughter. He cut the apples into chunks, put them on the plate and said, "Then I'll go to school first, and I'll be back soon."

"Well, let's go."

Shota signaled Kyosuke to go first, and after saying goodbye, he seemed to run to Kirino next door to say a word, and then ran towards the school.

Kyosuke didn't want to go to school at first, but since his father and mother are here, and Shota insisted that he go to school, he couldn't go against it.

Kirino and Shota are not in the same ward, although Kirino really wants to be in the same ward with Shota, but they haven't fully recovered their activities yet, so they will inevitably need their parents to help wipe their bodies and so on.Therefore, this proposal was finally rejected by Daisuke's father who was somewhat jealous.

"Shh."

Not long after Kyosuke left, the automatic door opened again, and this time it was Shota's father, Daisuke Takasaka, who walked in.

Dressed in formal attire, he seemed to have just come back from work. He nodded towards Shota who had woken up, and then sat on the side of the bed. He wanted to throw the document he was carrying directly to him, but in the end he opened it himself. .

"How are the others?"

Shota knew his father's intentions at this time. Not long after he woke up, he hoped that his father would use his authority to search for some information he wanted, including the safety of other people, including Asuna, no, or Asuna's whereabouts .

As for Daisuke's father, he was transferred from the police station two years ago and became a member of the SAO Incident Countermeasure Headquarters of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications.He knows nothing about machinery and electronics, and with his day and night work and his firm belief, he became a cadre of the countermeasure headquarters, so he knows all the players' news like the back of his hand.

"Kazuto Kiritani—that is, the Kirito you mentioned, as well as Black Cat, Saori, Silica, Liz, Agil, Klein, etc. have all recovered. Now they are all concentrated in the whole Japan Among the three special hospitals, you and Kirino's two friends, as well as that Kirito, are all in this hospital."

"Really, I'm going to see them later."

After Xiangta nodded, he found that he hadn't heard the news from the person he wanted to hear the most.So his heart sank, and he continued to look at his father.

"Asuna, also known as Asuna Yume, is also in this hospital."

Xiangta's heart trembled, he was about to stand up, but he heard his father say: "But, she didn't wake up."

"Here, what's going on here."

Shota's pale face was as pale as paper now.

"Not only her, but there are about [-] players across the country who haven't woken up from a coma." Daisuke's father closed the file and explained to his son: "The latest news is that they are not brain dead, but they are not brain dead like before. The status is exactly the same, and NERvGear is still in working condition."

"Impossible, impossible, Aincrad has completely self-destructed, they can't be there."

Shota sat up excitedly, and said, "Yes, if NERvGear is still working, your headquarters will definitely know where she is, right?"

The SAO Incident Countermeasure Headquarters of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications has been monitoring the world of SAO. If Asuna is still there, my father will definitely know where she is...

"do not know."

Daisuke's father shook his head and said, "So, my work is far from over."

"Can't you detect and monitor the data flow of NERvGear?!"

"Unless one of the three hundred people voluntarily brain-deads to remove the active NERvGear."

Hearing his father's words, Xiangta was silent for three seconds, then struggled to stand up while pressing the drip stand.

"Calm down."

Daisuke's father firmly pressed Xiangta back on the bed, and said: "Your work has been done very well, and we will take care of the next thing. You can take good care of yourself here..."

"How could it be possible for me to wait here!"

Xiangta wanted to push his father away, and shouted at him: "My wife is still asleep, how can I wait here!"

"..."

After listening to Shota's words, even though Daisuke's father didn't understand the word "wife", he still heard his son's inner feelings.

"On the top floor, I'll take you there."

The son supported by his father came to a special ward on the top floor.

However, before the two entered, a man in a black suit came out.

"Senior Kosaka."

When the young man saw Daisuke's father, he was taken aback for a moment, then quickly stood up straight and said hello, "You've worked hard."

"Yes, Kikuoka."

After Daisuke's father nodded, the young man turned his head and looked at Shota.

"This, is Senior's son Shota Kosaka, right?"

"Ah."

"Excellent hero. I have already heard about your deeds from Kiritani-kun." Kikuoka reached out his hand to shake hands with Shota, but found that his gaze had already passed him, looking at the person in the ward...

"Let's talk about it next time. I'll take my leave first."

Kikuoka withdrew his hand, nodded towards Daisuke Takasaka, and left first.

"Mr. Kosaka? Hello."

Sitting next to the ward was a man who looked very decent, wearing a suit without wrinkles. When he saw Xiangta and Daisuke walking in, he stood up and asked, "This is..."

"Hello, Mr. Yuki, this is my son, Shota Kosaka."

Asuna's father?

Seeing the sporadic white hair on his head, Shota barely stood up straight, bowed respectfully to the other party, and said: "Hello, Mr. Yuki, I am Shota Kosaka, Asuna...'s lover. "

After wandering among friends, good friends, lovers, and husbands for a long time, Xiangta still chose a word that best expresses his meaning and will not arouse the resentment of the people in front of him too much.

"Is that right?"

Mr. Yuki sized Shota a few times, and he seemed to have learned something from the people who came in before, so he wasn't too surprised.

"Thank you for taking care of my little girl in the past two years. Now that you are here, let's talk to Asuna. She will be happy when she knows you are here."

As he spoke, he nodded to Daisuke's father, and then walked out with him, as if he had something to talk about.

"Asuna..."

Shota silently sat on the position Mr. Yuki made just now, slowly stretched out his fingers, and lightly touched the hand of his wife who was still sleeping on the bed, a feeling of familiarity that made him a little sad.

Then, as if afraid of Asuna's sudden disappearance, Shota held her hand tightly.

Asuna on the bed was wearing a hospital gown with her eyes closed and a virtual helmet on her head, lying there quietly.Two years of slumber did not change her face at all, it was still the same as in the game - no, more beautiful than in the game.

"Look, I'm as thin as a bad old man now, but you are still so beautiful... If you wake up and see me like this, you will definitely laugh at me..."

"However, even if I will be laughed at by you, even if I will be disgusted by you, please wake up and take a look at me, okay?"

The blue LED indicator of NERvGear has been shining like a star, which is the evidence that the machine is still communicating normally.In other words, her soul is still imprisoned in a certain world at this moment.

Shota held Asuna's hand in silence, and he didn't know how long it took before he said, "Yuki...she's here too, in our house, only you are playing naughty outside and refusing to come back."

"I am angry……"

"I'm angry with you for the first time since I met you."

"So, you must come back quickly... No, you must really want to come back. You must have lost your way, lost in the labyrinth area."

"What a worrying child. If Yui knows about it, he will say you are ashamed."

"Wait for me, I will find you soon."

Gently kissing Asuna's sleeping face, Shota stood up and walked out of the ward.He didn't want to be here looking at Asuna's sleeping face...

Because, he knew that the other her must be waiting for his arrival somewhere.

"...Don't worry, we will definitely bring Miss Yuki back..."

"Please be sure to do this. If you need any help, you can ask for it. After all, our company is also operating virtual online games now..."

Seeing the door of the ward open again, the two fathers who were talking stopped.

"Father." Shota looked at his father and begged, "Please let me join the SAO Incident Countermeasure Headquarters."

"I'm going to bring her back..."

"it is good."

Daisuke's father did not refuse, nodded and said solemnly: "We just need SAO survivors like you to join."

"Thank you!"

After talking to his father, Shota turned to Asuna's father and said, "Please allow me to continue to visit Asuna."

"Ah."

Mr. Yuki nodded slightly, agreeing to Shota's request.

"Shota, you go back first..."

Daisuke's father just wanted Xiangta to go back to recuperate his body first, but met his firm eyes that were exactly the same as his own, so he changed his words and said, "Follow me back to the headquarters in a while."

"But, at home, you explain it yourself."

"Yes."
