Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

It is impossible to survive if you are naive.

Therefore, Wei Wu changed his previous idea and allowed Fu Qiu to stay by his side while interrogating Yutsumiya Han.

Now that the Japanese pirates have been dealt with, it is time to get to the bottom of things.

Looking at Fu Qiu who lowered his head and remained silent, Wei Wu did not embarrass him, but just said something softly.

"Let's talk after we get inside."

After saying that, Wei Wu turned and walked towards the dilapidated house. Seeing this, Fu Qiu hurriedly followed him.

After entering the house, Wei Wu looked around. Not to mention chairs, there wasn't even a bed for people to sit on.

He had no choice but to find a slightly cleaner place to sit on the ground, while Fu Qiu stood silently in front of him.

Seeing his appearance, Wei Wu smiled slightly and said:

"Come sit over here! Also, let me see your hands."

Although he didn't know what Wei Wu was going to do, Fu Qiu did not hesitate at all to respond to Wei Wu's request.

He sat down silently in front of Wei Wu, then raised his arms decisively and stretched out a pair of dirty little hands.

Although covered with mud and dust, one could still clearly see several small wounds on Fu Qiu's palms, which were bleeding.

Seeing this, Wei Wu flipped his wrist and took out hydrogen peroxide and iodine from the system space, as well as a bag of unopened medical cotton balls.

"Although the wound isn't big, there's a risk of it getting worse. It might be a bit painful, so just bear with it."

While speaking, Wei Wu's hands did not stop, and he wiped Fu Qiu bit by bit with a cotton ball dipped in hydrogen peroxide.

Only after the wound and the area around it are cleaned will we switch to iodine and carefully disinfect the wound.

These wounds are the key reason why Wei Wu believes Fu Qiu knows everything.

At first Wei Wu thought that Fu Qiu was injured when he fell while running, but after thinking about it, he felt something was wrong.

If the wound was caused by a fall, it couldn't be so small, and it couldn't be so neat.

Later, Wei Wu figured it out. This was not an injury from a fall, but a wound caused by being pierced by a fingernail.

Combining what Fu Qiu said before, you can guess why this happened with a little thought.

One can imagine the pain Fu Qiu felt when he heard her tell about his mother's experience with his own mouth.

But Wei Wu couldn't understand why he pretended to know nothing when he was obviously in so much pain.

They even use physical pain to suppress the pain in their hearts, just to make themselves appear calmer.

This behavior is not scheming, but more like a mouse hiding itself in a cave to protect itself.

Wei Wu couldn't understand why a child would hide himself in this way.

But later he realized that this was Fu Qiu's way of protecting himself, and he thought it was an effective way.

This was indeed the case. All the other people captured by the Japanese pirates died, but he was the only child who survived.

To put it bluntly, Fu Qiu just wanted to avenge his mother, but he knew very well that he did not have the ability to do so.

If an adult were to encounter the same situation, he or she would choose to confess what happened and then seek revenge at any cost.

But Fu Qiu is just a child, and a child who is used to hiding himself to protect himself.

In order to avenge his mother, he has actually done a very good job.

To be honest, Wei Wu didn't mind Fu Qiu using him to avenge his mother, and he even admired it very much.

So he did not blame Fu Qiu, but instead helped him treat the wound on his palm.

Under the disinfection of iodine, Fu Qiu's eyebrows and eyes twitched in pain, but he didn't dare to make any sound.

Seeing this, Wei Wu couldn't help laughing.

"Why, you didn't even frown when you pricked yourself, but now you can't stand this little pain?"

Hearing Wei Wu's slightly teasing voice, Fu Qiu dared to raise his head slightly and glanced at him timidly.

He didn't feel relieved until he saw that there was no anger on Wei Wu's face, but he still didn't dare to speak.

Wei Wu also understood that this was still a child after all, and it was inevitable that he would feel a little lost when his little secret was exposed.

Since the child doesn't know what to say, he, as an adult, can only guide him.

"Your name, Fu Qiu, you must have changed it yourself!"

Fu Qiu didn't say anything, but just nodded in response to Wei Wu's guess.

Seeing his response, Wei Wu also nodded.

"That's what I was saying! According to your description, your mother's greatest hope is that you can survive. She would never give you a name like that."

"Now you have finally achieved your revenge. You no longer have to live in fear. Come back to Ming Dynasty with me!"

Speaking of this, Wei Wu suddenly thought of a problem. Fu Qiu and his mother were captured by Japanese pirates.

According to the previous style of people like Utsunomiya Han, they will not leave anyone alive except money and women wherever they go.

I'm afraid that all the relatives and neighbors in the village have been killed long ago, and even if Fu Qiu goes back, he may have nowhere to go.

"Maybe there are some distant relatives! If not, then I can only bring him home and find him a job."

This is what Wei Wu thought in his heart, but he still had to ask Fu Qiu about the specific situation.

But before Wei Wu could ask, Fu Qiu spoke first.

"Mother said that I have to hide myself. If I want to survive, I must hide myself well, otherwise I will die."

"I know, I know everything. I know what they did to my mother, and I also know that my mother was trying to protect me."

At this point, Fu Qiu's voice began to choke, and besides tears, bloodshot appeared in his eyes.

But he didn't stop. Even though his voice began to tremble, he continued speaking.

"So I have to hide it. I can't tell anyone, and I can't know what happened. If I find out, Mom will die!"

Sitting opposite Fu Qiu, Wei Wu looked at him silently, but his heart was filled with mixed emotions, as if a bottle of seasoning had been overturned.

It is said that the earlier you become sensible, the more painful it is. This sentence is most appropriate for Fu Qiu because he has been silently digesting his emotions.

Maybe others didn't understand what Fu Qiu meant, but Wei Wu could tell what he wanted to express from his expression.

The so-called "Once he knows, Mom will die" was not referring to the Japanese pirates, but to himself!

His mother asked him to hide, just hoping that he could stay alive, which he did, and he did very well.

He even hid his own understanding and pretended to know nothing in front of his mother.

In fact, he was afraid that if he showed his understanding, he would tear the last bit of his mother's dignity into pieces.

Just as his mother hoped that he could survive, he also hoped that his mother could survive.
