He and his men would've been one of the reasons people needed to be safe. But the idea of a self-defense class? That was intriguing, though not as much as it would've been in a better mood. Still, it'd be a chance to assess the others and see just who he might have to contend with.
"There are others who could likely help you," he offered, "The soldier on the journals... Brady? He would be competent," Wu offered, thinking that volunteering someone else would lower his odds of being asked to help. If that happened, in light of everything else with Carmel? Wu wasn't sure he could say no.
