Chapter 321: Hiding the Truth
"Here."
Wen Shi led her into a room. It was empty, with nothing in it except a table and two chairs.
"The test is in the next room."
Yi Chichi looked at him and asked, "Can I take a look?"
"Walk."
Of course she had to check the testing room first, otherwise what would happen if problems arose when the test failed and was pulled onto the submarine?
So, based on the principle of safety, I would take the initiative to take her there to see it even if she didn't mention it.
Then, the couple went to the next room under the curious gaze of the soldiers.
It was a very small room with a window on the left wall, sealed with wooden bars.
Yi Chichi leaned over to take a look and found that the wooden strips were newly sawed and had not been aired, so they were very moist.
"Temporarily nailed?"
"Um."
Wen Shi nodded and said, "I brought people here to do it after morning training."
Then he asked her, "Is this okay? Do you want to move that thing from last night over here?"
"Can."
Yi Chichi had no idea what this room was originally used for, but it was definitely not a place for people to live in.
It's too small, can't even fit a camp bed, and it's in a long strip, so it's quite suitable for testing.
"Then let's start?"
Inquiring tone.
"Come on, one by one."
"Okay, I'll go call someone."
Wen Shi had nothing else to do today, so he accompanied her to help the soldiers solve their problems first, and then accompanied her to meet Zhang Xin and the other promising young men.
So, in the following time, Yi Chichi talked with the soldiers one by one in the room, and then provided psychological counseling and guidance based on their own situations.
In serious cases, the memory needs to be modified or overwritten like Xiaokang.
Let one out, and send one into a small dark room when he smells it.
One of them came back in the middle and started banging on the door within two minutes, yelling for someone to let him out.
I was so scared that I almost cried.
Upon learning of this situation, Yi Chichi was quite confused.
She looked at Tu Qing, whose eyes were red and looked frightened, and wondered, "What's wrong with you?"
"Sister-in-law, I'm scared."
He complained, "As soon as the door closed, everything went dark. I, I felt like there were so many eyes watching me."
Yi Chichi helplessly held his forehead, "There are no eyes, why do you think of eyes?"
As soon as she said this, she saw Tu Qing's eyes start to become distracted and he shut up.
My goodness, this kid hid the truth.
Wen Shi also saw it, and he angrily asked, "What did I tell you before?"
"Answer whatever my sister-in-law asks, and don't hide anything."
When he heard this, he became angry and did not dare to keep silent. He answered loudly at the top of his voice.
"So how did you do it?"
He lowered his head like a quail again, and was about to get angry when he heard it, but Yi Chichi stopped him and said, "Don't worry, I'll talk to him again."
As she said that, she waved to Tu Qing, "Let's go, let's chat some more."
Tu Qing looked at Wen Shi, who noticed his gaze and glared at him, "Why are you looking at me? Do you still want to be a submarine soldier?"
"think!"
The words were powerful and the voice was loud.
"Go in if you want."
So, Tu Qing sat opposite Yi Chichi again.
She felt in her pocket, pulled out a White Rabbit and handed it to him, "Eat it."
"Sister-in-law, I..."
"Don't refuse. I'll eat it too."
Yi Chichi took out another candy, peeled off the candy wrapper and put the candy in his mouth. Seeing that Tu Qing did not move, he signaled him with his eyes to eat quickly.
This kid's emotions are as tense as a bow with a full string. If he doesn't relax, it will be detrimental to the subsequent conversation.
Sugar can help relieve mood.
So, don’t say anything and just eat some candy.
Facts proved that her strategy was correct. After taking a candy, Tu Qing's tense mood was relieved. Seeing this, Yi Chichi gave him two more.
“Eat it!”
"...Can I not eat it?"
He stumbled, with mixed emotions in his eyes.
"Why not eat?"
Yi hesitated to answer and asked back, Tu Qing said softly, "White Rabbit is expensive."
It was a candy that he was reluctant to buy and could not afford to buy.
He didn't say this, but Yi Chichi saw it through his eyes and facial expression, and smiled when he saw it, "Sister-in-law treats you to a meal, I think you have to give me this face, big brother, what do you think?"
The tone was gentle, but the tone brooked no argument.
Tu Qing thanked him quietly, took the candy and put it into his mouth with great care, his brows softened unconsciously.
His expression is a bit like a cat, the kind of skinny little cat that wanders the streets, suffers a lot, and cherishes the occasional bit of warmth.
“Have you ever eaten White Rabbit before?”
“Yes.”
He nodded and said excitedly, "The squad leader gave me two. That was my first time eating White Rabbit. They were really delicious!"
His expression was full of nostalgia.
But then, his mood dropped and his eyes turned red.
"After the squad leader left, I never ate White Rabbit again."
Yi Chichi frowned. Walk? Chinese characters are profound and extensive. The word "walk" can have several meanings.
Which one was Tu Qing talking about? "The squad leader retired?"
“… Sacrificed.”
"For what sacrifice?"
"Acting bravely on the way to visit relatives."
As he spoke, he covered his face and choked up, "I didn't even see the squad leader for the last time, and then I started to have a dream. I dreamed that the squad leader looked at me with disappointment in his eyes and didn't say a word..."
He talked a lot, and his words were full of guilt.
Yi Chichi is a qualified listener and is good at guiding. When Tu Qing was talking, she listened attentively, did not respond easily, and only gave some guidance at key points.
At the same time, his men kept taking out a pen to write a psychological profile of him in a notebook. When he finished speaking, Yi Chichi discovered that this child was too kind.
I have some cleverness, but not great wisdom.
He has strong empathy and is sincere in his feelings. If you give him some love, he will open his heart to you.
Commonly known as being sentimental.
Besides this, he is not good at expressing himself and likes to keep everything to himself, being a taciturn person.
The squad leader is very important to him because he is small, can't speak, and is not very popular.
It was the squad leader who taught him how to handle interpersonal relationships and took care of him in every aspect of life and training.
To him, the squad leader is not just a squad leader, but a person similar to an elder brother and a father.
Of course, the squad leader is nice to all the soldiers.
But Tu Qing firmly believed that he was the most special in the squad leader's heart because the feelings for him were too deep. So when he heard the news of his squad leader's sacrifice, he couldn't accept it in his heart and felt self-blame and guilt.
I blamed myself for disappointing the squad leader and felt guilty for not being able to visit him in his hometown.
As the saying goes, you dream about what you think about during the day, so he dreamed that the squad leader was looking at him disappointedly without saying a word.
At this moment, Yi Chichi finally realized why his claustrophobia recurred even though it was not very serious.
Because the child trapped himself in self-blame and guilt towards the class monitor.
That's why he broke down after entering the small dark room and said he saw a lot of eyes. It was because when he entered, he couldn't help but think of the scene in his dream where the squad leader looked at him with disappointment.
He had concealed this reason before.
This incident left Yi Chichi speechless.
"Eat a candy first, I'll go out for a while."
