"My name is Tom, and I live in Country Jin Lotes."
"Do you remember everything from these years?" An Yiqing asked again.
The man nodded, "I remember." He remembered meeting William when he was a child, then becoming friends with him. Gradually, he began to imitate William's every word and deed, eventually completely considering himself as William. After living in the village for two years, he was taken back to Lotes by his parents to start a new life.
After returning home, he kept emphasizing to his parents that his name was William, not Tom. His parents just thought he was too young, reluctant to leave his good friend from the countryside, so they went along with him.
Later on, at Tom's insistence, his doting parents directly changed his name, turning him completely into William.
