Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 255 The Sinner
"I was an idiot at the time, most of the emperors in history were idiots." Uesugi Koshi poured himself another drink, "Mixed races also participated in this century war, famous sharpshooters, ace pilots and hero tanks in history There is dragon blood flowing in the veins of the hands. The top decision-making organs of the United States are occupied by secret parties. They are leftist congressmen and political lobbyists, hiding behind the scenes. And there's a bunch of guys building the atomic bomb at Oak Ridge."

"The atomic bomb was made by a hybrid?"

"Those old guys are hiding in the cellar of the main campus of Kassel College. If it weren't for them, the appearance of nuclear weapons would have been delayed for decades in human history."

"You were expelled from the Sheqi Bajia because of defeat"

"No, they don't have the qualifications." Uesugi Yue drank a whole glass of wine again, "In fact, I had a good life in the first few years of the war. I lived as before, mobilizing young people in the family every day, receiving returning heroes, Then I went to the harem to overthrow women casually, until Hitler suddenly attacked France, my dream suddenly shattered, I remembered that my mother was still in Lyon, France, and we hadn’t communicated for almost five years because of the war, I went crazy and wanted to go back immediately. she.

But my subordinates persuaded me not to do it. Soon Japan will go to war with the United States in the Pacific Ocean. At that time, the traffic will be cut off. I will never be able to return to Japan. We are allies with the German army. They swore to me that they will fight with the German army Get in touch and help me find my mom anyway and keep her safe. "

"did you find it?"

"No, the Germans did go to the little church in Lyon, but the priest told them that Mama left France a few years ago and didn't know where she went. I thought Mama left before the war, so there shouldn't be anything She must have gone to some peaceful town where there was a light, and she wore a black nun's attire and told the children Bible stories at bedtime."

Having said that, Uesugi buried his head deeply, not daring to look at Erika's face.

Except for hair color and some details, Eriyi looks very similar to the young Sister Charlotte. Although her temperament is different, Eriyi is young, beautiful and dignified. A glance will remind him of that beautiful time time.

At that time, he was a 7 or 8-year-old boy who lived in a missionary school. His mother took the initiative to apply for a job at the school in order to meet him. When the other children were asleep, her mother came to see him quietly. His mother held his thumb, kissed his forehead, smiled and said good night in his ear, and he kissed his mother's cheek.

This is his exclusive treatment, because he knows that only he is his mother's child, this love is exclusive to him, and no other child in the church school can enjoy this love.

When he grew up, his mother was older too, and when he awakened his blood and left France, he was an adult, and his mother's face was wrinkled, and she was no longer called Sister Charlotte, but Charlotte Mammy, the thing he regrets the most is that he left his mother's side. He has accepted so many favors, and he should have used everything to repay.

He drank the wine in the glass again, feeling depressed, and reached out to pick up the wine bottle again, but one hand held down his pouring hand.

Erika shook her head lightly, and put her hand on the back of his old and withered hand.

Uesugi stared blankly at her face and cried like a child.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry" he knelt on the tatami, tears streaming down his face.

No matter how much time passed, he couldn't forgive himself, he uncontrollably equated Erika's face with his mother's, it was like a ruthless trial, judging his crimes with all the good things in his life.

Erika looked at Lu Mingfei, as if she didn't quite understand why Uesugi Yue started crying again.

She has no mother since she was a child and cannot understand maternal love.

"Let him cry for a while." Lu Mingfei patted Erika on the back, "He just misses his mother."

Lu Mingfei took out the photo from his arms, and brushed his fingers over the faces of the men and women in the photo.

He also misses his mother a little bit.

He kept this photo with him all the time. Kassel College interviewed him at the Regent Hotel. Professor Guderian brought this photo and a letter from his parents.

"Mingfei, mom and dad love you." When Professor Guderian said this, his funny beard was still trembling, and he looked funny, but Lu Mingfei was genuinely happy.

Different from Uesugi's more gentle and kind mother, his mother Qiao Weini has always been a hot-tempered woman. She has sharp eyes and fierce vigor. She is the oldest in the family. Fashion.

She is not a housewife, she has a fiery personality, and her love is not as delicate and soft as Sister Charlotte's, but you can feel it deeply, because when she was there, she would stay by the lamp every night, supervising Lu Mingfei's homework After finishing the execution, the eyes will be fixed on Lu Mingfei's homework at all times, and the pressure will be great. Thanks to her, Lu Mingfei's grades in primary school have always been good.

If Lu Mingfei improved in the exam, she would rarely cook, but in fact her cooking skills are not good, the egg custard is very old, the braised pork ribs are always burnt when they are oily, and the pickled fish is put in her mouth. There was a fishy smell in it, and every time it was Mom's turn to cook, Dad would quietly go to the street to buy side dishes such as cold pork head meat and soaked chicken feet, so as not to overwhelm the whole table.

When he was a child, Lu Mingfei didn't like to eat the meals made by his mother and always ate the cooked food bought by his father. Most of the dishes on the table went into his father's mouth. Now he can't eat even if he wants to.

Lu Mingfei stared at Qiao Weini in the photo, and didn't know when he would meet again.

Erika also leaned over to look at the photo, and at the same time handed over a note, "Who are they?"

"This is my father, and this is my mother." Lu Mingfei introduced to Erika, "We are a family. If we get married in the future, they will also be your parents."

"What counts as a family?" Erika asked.

Lu Mingfei lowered his head and thought for a while, then said: "A family is the kind of close connection that can be felt all the time. No matter what happens, this connection will never be broken."

"Are we family?"

"I think so, because I will feel at ease when you are here." Lu Mingfei thinks that a family is a feeling of peace of mind. If you send a message to your girlfriend and she doesn't reply to you for a few hours, you will suspect that she is There are other men out there, but if mom doesn't call you back for a few hours, at most you'll think she's playing mahjong again, and you won't be bombarded with dozens of phone calls asking her what she's doing and why she didn't call you back.

Because you know very well that she loves you, and she will definitely get back to you when she is free.

There is no need to question this love, it is a pure love that will not be changed by external objects, whether it is a few hours or months, or years or decades, she is your mother and will always love you, even after you grow up I seldom get along with her. When you go home, you are still her child.

This was a little deep for Erika, she tilted her head, and nodded with a vague understanding.

She looked at Lu Lincheng and Qiao Weini in the photo. It was a group photo. In a garden with green vines, they were holding hands and smiling. She suddenly smiled too, smiling like a blooming crabapple.

"Dad, Mom." She put a note under the faces of Qiao Weini and Lu Lincheng respectively, patted Uesugi Yue on the head, and called Uesugi Yueya to look at the photo.

Uesugi Yue suddenly froze, not understanding what Erika meant.

"She is caring about you." Lu Mingfei said.

In Erika's eyes, "mother" is just a pronoun. Although she has seen this kind of interpersonal relationship in fan dramas, because she is an orphan, she cannot understand the specific person represented by "mother".

Lu Mingfei said that Uesugi cried more because he missed his mother. Charlotte Chen is "mother" and Qiao Weini is also "mother". Uesugi looked at the photos more and more, in fact, he wanted to tell him, don't cry, there is a mother here too.

"I think, something must have happened next that made you very painful. If you don't want to continue this topic, let's end it." Lu Mingfei continued: "We can talk about other things, such as Erika's life experience , Are you her father or something like that?"

Uesugi sniffed and wiped his face with a tissue, "I've avoided it for long enough, it's time to face it again today."

"Are these your parents?" Uesugi asked.

"Yes, but I haven't seen them for seven or eight years. They are the commissioners of Kassel. It is said that they are conducting a secret mission. They cannot leave before the mission is over. We can only communicate through letters." Lu Ming Fei said.

"I can see from your face that you love them very much. They must be very good parents. In the first few years when I first came to Japan, I wrote to my mother every week. At that time, the phone could not be connected across the country. Long-distance communication can only be sent by submarine cables, but there are no submarine cables between France and Japan, so I can only write letters. The reason why cruise ships are called cruise ships is because they are responsible for carrying international packages in the [-]th century. Go to the pier, go to every cruise ship to ask if there is any package from France, and when I get the reply, my expression is similar to yours now."

Uesugi sat up straighter, stopped drinking, and turned to look at the cross hanging on the wall, with the deep past in his eyes.

"Do you often miss your mother?"

"I think, I don't miss her for a moment." Uesugi Yue's voice is hoarse: "Every day I expect her to knock on my door, she will call my name in France, Dominic (Dominique), when I was a child, my mother hugged me and hugged me. Said, people with this name belong to God, the Lord will bless us to go to heaven, but I only deserve to be punished in the deepest part of hell, I am an unforgivable sinner, she will not hug me when she sees me again, only Hate myself for giving birth to a sinner."

Lu Mingfei listened to him quietly, and Erika looked at his face.

Uesugi Koshi said: "Let me continue. In the Pacific War, we were retreating steadily. The government released the slogan '[-] million pieces of jade'. At that time, Japan had [-] million citizens. This slogan meant that the whole country would go to war, even civilians would not Exception. I was invited to a party of the main combat faction. They are a group of lunatics. Everyone has their own ambition. What, but before it even started, the Emperor announced the surrender, and then American troops landed on Shikoku Island, and a man named Hilbert Jean Angers came."

"headmaster?"

"Yes, the family investigated the files of Angers, who was born in 1879 and was unknown until the autumn of 1900, when the famous 'Summer Mourning' took place in the German port of Hamburg, including the Meineck Including Cassel, several leaders of the Secret Party died. Only Angers, a young man, survived, but he lay on the hospital bed for two full years before getting up again.

From then on, he was no longer a person, but a vengeful ghost. He quickly made a name for himself in the secret party, was promoted to a leader, had a large number of supporters, and established the Kassel Academy. When he arrived in Japan, he was already a well-known big shot.

He came to conquer Japan, and the family didn't want to submit to the secret party, so I went to assassinate him. I am confident that no mixed race can defeat me on the frontal battlefield, but 'Time Zero' is really a word that can reverse the situation. He beat me with two wooden knives, I yelled at him, I said everyone is guilty in war, you are not holy, I don't regret it, everyone is for the good of the country.Finally he asked me, do you know what your soldiers are doing overseas? "

Uesugi got more out of habit to grab the wine glass, but he put his hand down halfway.

"I don't know anything." He lowered his head: "I have never seen overseas battlefields with my own eyes. I just stayed in the deep palace and preached. The next day an American captain drove me a truckload of files, which were Testimony used in the Tokyo Trial."

"I read these testimonies day and night. At first I didn't take it seriously. There are always people who are martyred in war. In the course of history, this is a matter of course. I just feel that the Americans are shameless and attribute all the mistakes of the war to Japan. People's heads, until I saw the testimony of the NJ massacre.

A nun from a French Catholic church said that the Japanese army stormed into the nursery hall opened by the Western church, and the old nuns made Chinese women dress up as nuns and secretly took them out of the city.However, they were intercepted by the Japanese army on the riverside, and Major Katsura Fujiwara discovered that they were all fake nuns, so all the rebels were stabbed open with bayonets.The only one who was not harmed was the old nun who led the team, but after witnessing the bloody and cruel scene, she couldn't bear it and chose to shoot herself.Before she died, she cursed that God would punish sinners with thunder and fire..."

"Her name is Charlotte Chen." Uesugi Yue's hands on the table trembled, and his breathing gradually became short of breath.

He raised his head, his eyes were dark golden, and the violent dragon's blood surged in his veins. Erika put her hand on the back of his hand, and it could be seen that he was trying to suppress his inner emotions.

It's hard to describe his expression at this moment, his ferocious face is like a ghost, but the moment he saw Erika, he looked like a smile, he wept silently, hot tears streaked down his nose, he crossed himself in front of his chest, more than anyone else Believers are devout.
