I Got on a Ghost Ship By Mistake and Was Forced To Be the Captain

  Chapter 30 Wise Sophie

  Roman Richard is not a reliable person. Regarding this point, any dancer on the South Bank who has had negative contact with him will give this answer.

   But the information he gave was fairly accurate.

  After the great plague incident at the Leeds Grand Theater, he learned from Uncle Ethan that after the conclusion of the case, the Police Department will award the merits according to the contribution of this operation.

   More importantly, as the only outsider who actively participated in the incident, Tuf Capet will be awarded the Medal of Bravery Citizen, and in this name will receive a considerable bonus.

  The Kingdom will not treat its contributing citizens badly in this regard.

   "300 crowns?"

  Tu Fu listened to this figure in disbelief. This is a year's salary and bonus for an ordinary worker. He never imagined that the police department, which has always searched and searched, is so generous.

   "After all, I have been involved in mysterious incidents and I have worked hard, so the amount of rewards should be calculated according to the maximum limit."

   Ethan looked at this kid speechlessly, he probably didn't know what he had done, he rubbed his brows tightly, "You go back first, it seems suspicious that we go home at the same time, your aunt will definitely notice.

  I will help you hide this matter, but don't let it happen again. "

  The experienced uncle quickly made arrangements to make everything look very calm.

"certainly."

  Hearing that a large amount of funds had entered the account, Tu Fu couldn't help feeling much better.

  It was getting dark when he finished his confession at the police station. When he was shuttling through the crowd, he walked on this seemingly unfamiliar city street, but he had deduced countless plans in the surveillance.

  Yes, since Grace took the initiative to ask him out, Tu Fu had already noticed that something was wrong and started to make a game.

   On the day of the operation, according to different chronological order, the report letters were delivered to the police station where the uncle worked, then to the Black Swan Office, and finally to the Municipal Police Department.

  The general office is responsible for organizing and dispatching manpower, the superhumans of the Black Swan Office are the main combat force, and Uncle Ethan is responsible for... taking credit for it.

   And he himself wants to use this adventure to test the results of taking the potion.

   Unexpectedly, in addition to inquiring about the method of digesting potions, he also got a windfall.

   Look,

  I actually protected the people of Leeds once.

  Tu Fu has a strong desire to talk, but feels a little lonely because there is no one to share.

   The depressed mood didn't last long. Thinking of the reward money that was about to be credited, Tu Fu deliberately chose to take a private carriage when he returned home.

   I also bought two exquisite cheesecakes and lived a small middle-class life.

  …

  Crescent Street, Block B, No. 64.

  Facing the dark night, Tu Fu dragged his exhausted body back home. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Miss Winster with a strange expression. She looked suspiciously at herself holding the pastry in her hand.

  At this point, the hostess of the house, Mrs. Anfeier, is in her room, doing yoga activities to keep fit every day.

   "This is your reward."

  Sophie took the cake and shook her head in disbelief, "I thought you wouldn't come back."

   "Otherwise where should I go?" Tu Fu didn't understand.

   "The money I gave you is enough to open a nice suite." Sophie blinked earnestly, and when she saw that Tu Fu still didn't respond, she turned out to have a disappointed expression on her face.

   "Did you forget to reserve a room?"

   Now, even the aunt who was doing yoga in the room, heard the bad conversation and shouted, "Sophie!"

   "Okay, let's not talk about this." Sophie stuck out her tongue in fright, but the fire of gossip among girls of this age, especially the gossip of relatives and friends, far exceeds the anger of a boy who can withstand steel plates.

   "So, what about today's date?"

  Tu Fu frowned, and for a moment he couldn't think of any words to describe the ending, so he could only say embarrassingly, "It's cold."

"what?"

  Sophie obviously didn't expect such an ending. The two willow-leaf eyebrows next to her eyebrows raised, and she offered to help analyze: "Tell me what's going on."

   "Your tricks don't work at all." Tu Fu didn't forget to make up for it, and then started talking about the matter from the beginning, "After we met, I bought a bouquet of flowers according to your request."

  Tu Fu stated the situation innocently, "But she refused the flowers I sent her."

   "My God, there are still such impolite people." Sophie exclaimed.

   "What's worse, we visited almost all the stores. During this period, I tried to use the words you taught me, but it was completely useless." Tu Fu repeated Grace's words.

   "It seems that her rank is higher than yours." Sophie smiled contemptuously, "I guess she must use this method to promote the relationship between you."

   "That's right, from today onwards, I will never go shopping with girls again.

  The next highlight is tonight's stage play. I really can't think of a show worse than "The Sparrow Turns into a Princess". After watching the ending, I was almost depressed. "

   "Obviously, she is trying to win your sympathy with this stage play.

  The relationship between you is like the sparrow princess and the neighboring prince. Only the man can take the initiative to save this relationship that is on the verge of crisis. "

  The wise Sophie began to use her great wisdom to analyze seriously.

  Based on her years of experience on paper, the girl who asked him out this time is just a high-ranking green tea plus sea king who goes fishing around.

   After dating Tu Fu, he hangs him and becomes a fish in the fish pond.

   Even Aunt Anfeier, who was eavesdropping in the room, couldn't help shaking her head after hearing this conclusion.

"Humph."

   After sharing information and drawing conclusions after analysis, the brothers and sisters snorted dissatisfiedly at the same time.

   "Tu Fu, why waste time on such a bad girl, there is always someone better waiting for you."

  Perhaps out of sympathy, Sophie rarely comforted the "broken love" Tu Fu.

   This has become an extremely rare scene in the Winster family.

  Sophie’s advice is like your mother’s warning to you when you were a child. When you grow up, there will be many temptations of all kinds. As a mature boy, you must control yourself.

  However, after a few years, what you really think will be "why haven't those temptations come yet".

  With a "heavy" heart, Tu Fu walked into the bathroom with a sigh, put the hot water in advance with a sprayer, took off his clothes, and then slowly lay down in the bathtub.

   Gently softening his sore eyes, the price of today's excessive ability is muscle soreness, and these things happened again, which made him feel very tired. He can only lie in the quiet bathtub and enjoy the hot water soaking his skin.

  For him, this is a very decompressing process.

  Many married men always like to sit quietly in the car for a while when they go home, or lie in the bathroom for a few more minutes, even if they do nothing, it is a great enjoyment.

  Busy work, pressure from spouse, and all kinds of life always make people overwhelmed.

  In this short moment, only this small space belongs to me, without noise, accusations, and endless quarrels. Then when I go home, I raise my smiling face again to meet the expectations of my children and the approving eyes of my wife.

   Just as Tu Fu was about to fall asleep, his keen hearing sensed the movement downstairs.

  Uncle Ethan is back.

  His face is full of smiles, no matter how late Ethan comes back every time, he will always bring warm smiles to his family, his hearty laughter can even be heard by Tu Fu on the second floor.

   "Come on, the case has been solved perfectly, it's that easy, who told me that I am the favorite Sheriff Winster of the residents of Crescent Street."

  Uncle shamelessly like a wife and daughter began to brag about his achievements, the large rewards he could get for this case, and so on.

  But there is no mention of the thrills of the battle.

  Because he came home with a triumphant smile intact,

This is enough.

  …

   After soaking for an unknown amount of time, Tu Fu wiped his wet hair with a towel and came out of the bathroom. Uncle Ethan was waiting in his room at some point, as if he wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with him.

   "Don't worry, I didn't say anything." Uncle winked at Tu Fu happily, "Listen to Sophie, your date was messed up too."

   “Maybe this will make me more focused on studying.”

   "Well, I fully support you in doing this. Counting this award and the money I have saved over the years, it is enough for you to go to any university."

   Fortunately, my uncle didn't let my aunt hear this sentence, otherwise a fierce battle would be inevitable.

   This also explains why Tu Fu saw his uncle stealing his private money from the surveillance, even though Ethan did not do well in many aspects, was very sloppy, and often made his family unhappy.

  However, 120% of his care and love for Tu Fu was spent.

   "Don't come into contact with such things in the future, and stay away from people like Roman.

  Of course, they did make great contributions to Leeds, and they have devoted themselves to a career with no future. I respect those people very much.

   But you should understand that not everyone wants to see their children go to the front line, like today. "The worry on Ethan's face touched Tu Fu.

  He does not deny that those who stand up at a critical moment are heroes. Even if they are not bright and in the dark, they are very respectable objects.

   But that's not a reason for your own child to go that way.

  Many parents will never let their children inherit their careers. A large part of the reason is that they know the hardships in this industry. The elders want to use their own experience to save the younger generations from detours.

   Until many years later, the juniors who have suffered so much don’t know whether they will remember the advice they never paid attention to.

   After all, Ethan Winster is such a selfish and narrow-minded guide.

"I see."

  Tu Fu lowered his head subconsciously, his eyes deliberately avoiding his uncle's eyes.

"Today you remind me of your parents. They did the same crazy things. I don't want you to follow in their footsteps, but I will not prevent you from choosing your own path." Ethan talked about this matter thing.

  Tu Fu didn't understand the original owner's feelings for his parents, perhaps because he was too young to feel it, but kept it in his heart as a memory that he didn't want to touch.

   Occasionally reveals subtle sadness.

  Seeing that his uncle brought it up, he followed the trend and asked, "What kind of people are my parents?"

  "Mr. Capet and his wife, Miss Sophia, were my best friends. I have never seen people like them. They are kind, talented, full of spirit of exploring scientific truth, and even to an amazing degree of paranoia.

  When organizing the expedition, he came to me and asked me to take care of you for a while, maybe then I should have realized that they chose a road of no return. "

  Uncle Ethan closed his eyes in pain, unaware that his nails had penetrated deeply into his flesh, and his voice became much lower.

   "For a long time after the incident, I tried hard to find their whereabouts.

  Through the channels of the Royal Army and the police system, I vaguely know that they have touched the mysterious incidents of high-ranking people, which is destined not to be accessible to people like me who do not seek to make progress.

  I have regretted it countless times. If I could have prevented them from following that crazy expedition that day, maybe none of that would have happened. "

   "It's not your fault, they won't blame you." Tu Fu said truthfully.

  "So every day after that, I really don't want to see you get hurt again and repeat the ending of your parents. But I respect a child's urgency to find their parents, and I also respect any future decisions you make.

   But please remember, if you really can’t hold on one day,

  The Winster family, always leave a light for you. "

   "I know you've grown up and have your own opinions, and I shouldn't impose my will on you, but this is the last time."

  Uncle Ethan was a little sad when he spoke, he wiped the corner of his eyes lightly, "It's so late, I won't disturb your rest anymore."

  Tu Fu hummed in a complicated mood, wanted to say something but never said it.

   "Good night, Uncle."

   "Good night, Mr. Capet."
