From a small mountain village...
Chapter 133 The Savior Descends to Earth
Gu's mother said, "You don't need to waste your energy shouting and running away. I've sealed off the whole room, and I've sent your father and brother away. Even if you shout until you're hoarse, no one will come to save you."
Upon hearing this, Gu Ji gave up her attempt to bang on the door, knowing that her mother was telling the truth.
This courtyard is built at the foot of the mountain at the end of the village. There are no other neighbors around, and at midday, few people are out and about in the village. You could shout at the top of your lungs and no one would hear you.
Hearing his mother's footsteps receding into the distance, Gu Ji turned on the room light and found that the only window had also been boarded up. Peeking through the crack, he saw that a security window had been installed on the outside.
Gu Ji was extremely anxious, his eyes scanning the room, hoping to find a handy tool to pry open a window or door and escape.
However, Gu's mother had tidied up the room thoroughly, taking away almost all the tools that could be used for escape.
Having no other choice, Gu Ji tried to pry the wooden planks off the window with his bare hands, but he couldn't get a single plank off after a long time, and there wasn't even a trace of damage.
Gu Ji's palms were red, with a few blood vessels seeping out. Waves of pain came from his knees, and his whole body was trembling. Blood vessels filled his eyes, and his cheeks were tense. He gritted his teeth and tried again, but he used too much force and fell to the ground with a thud.
"hiss"
Just as I was about to get up and try again, I heard a slight noise at the door.
Then a slightly puzzled voice rang out, "Strange? Why can't the door turn?"
Gu Ji listened carefully, and it didn't sound like his mother's voice.
It's more like...
Gu Ji hurriedly stood up, his anxious tone tinged with hope, "Gu Bao, is that you?"
The sound of the door opening was interrupted, followed by a childish voice asking, "Who are you? What are you doing in my room?"
Gu Ji's voice became increasingly blurred as Gu Bao grew up, and he could no longer remember her timbre.
Gu Ji immediately pressed her face against the door and whispered, "I am the older sister."
"Sister?" Gu Bao murmured, a smile instantly appearing on her previously wary face. "Are you really my sister?"
"It's me." Gu Ji pursed her lips slightly, her bright eyes lowered.
She hadn't been home for over two years, so it was normal for Gu Bao not to remember her voice. However, she could hear the surprise and joy in Gu Bao's voice.
Gu Bao tried to turn the doorknob hard. "Sister, what are you doing in there? And the door won't open."
Upon hearing this, Gu Ji immediately shouted, "Mom tricked me into coming home this morning, trying to force me to get married. Go find the room key now!"
Gu Bao was very anxious when he heard this. No wonder his mother wanted to send him to his uncle's house for a few days in the morning, saying that she and his father would not be home for the next few days.
"Sister, wait a moment, I'll go find the key." Gu Bao said as he walked towards his mother's room, as he roughly knew where the house key was kept.
They searched through all the cabinets in Gu's mother's room but couldn't find the key to his room.
Gu Bao hurriedly walked back, his voice choked with emotion, "Mom doesn't know where she hid the key. I'm going to the village to find someone to help me now."
A glint flashed in Gu Ji's eyes. The key must have been taken by Gu's mother. As for finding the people in the village, they wouldn't bother with her family's affairs. Gu's mother would just give them a reason to send them away.
Thinking of this, Gu Ji immediately patted the security door, his voice trembling slightly, "Gu Bao, quickly find a piece of paper and a pen. I'll give you a phone number. Call this number and ask him to come and save me."
She suddenly remembered that Uncle Dan was still in town and could drive here very quickly. Moreover, only he would risk everything to take her away from here.
Gu Bao stopped running out and immediately found paper and pen as Gu Ji had instructed.
"Sister, you can start reciting the phone number now, I'm ready." Gu Bao pressed her ear against the door, kneeling on the ground as she wrote.
As Gu Bao wrote down the phone number and ran out with the paper, she could still hear Gu Ji's worried voice coming from inside the door behind her.
"Gu Bao, slow down, don't fall."
Gu Bao felt a lump in his throat. Since his sister left without saying goodbye on the second day of the Lunar New Year, he had never seen her again, nor had he heard any of her care and concern for him.
When he returned from his village friend's house, he saw his mother and father sitting silently in the main room.
In particular, Mom was in a very angry state, staring fiercely at the door.
When he discovered that his sister was missing, he pestered his mother for her, but she scolded him. That was the first time he had ever been scolded by his doting mother.
Since then, the family has never mentioned my sister again; it's as if she never existed in the family.
But he still kept her in his heart. Although he gradually forgot his sister's appearance and voice over time, he never forgot her.
Gu Bao ran to a friend's house to borrow a cell phone to make a call.
On the other end of the phone, Dan Anwen felt somewhat uneasy, a vague sense of unease filling his heart.
Just as I was wondering whether I should go into the village to look for the children, my phone rang.
He glanced at the unfamiliar phone number for Lin'an City on the screen and was somewhat surprised.
This is his private number, known only to his close family members.
I originally intended to hang up, but...
"Hello, who is this?" Dan Anwen frowned slightly, his voice low.
Gu Bao was slightly surprised as she listened to the deep, magnetic male voice coming from the other end of the phone. Who was the man on the other end?
But that's not important right now; saving my sister is more urgent.
Gu Bao's childish voice reached the man's ears, "My sister is locked up at home by my mother. She told me to call you to rescue her. Brother, please come quickly."
Dan Anwen tightened his grip on the phone, his narrow eyes suddenly sharpening, a layer of icy mist forming in his eyes, cold and piercing.
He had investigated the child's family members, and it was clearly her younger brother, Gu Bao.
Tell her I'll be there soon.
After saying that, he hung up the phone decisively and told the driver to drive to the Gu family's house as fast as possible.
Gu Bao stared at the phone that had been hung up in his hand, stood there for a moment, and then hurriedly ran home.
I had just run to my front door when I heard a car horn behind me.
Turning my head, I saw a sleek luxury car, and then a man with an air of nobility stepped out of the back seat.
With sharp features and an innate aura of authority, he could sense that the man approaching him was not someone to be trifled with, even though he was too young to comprehend the terrifying aura emanating from him.
Dan Anwen looked at the little boy staring blankly at him, and slightly softened his sharp aura. "Where is your sister being held?"
Gu Bao only realized it was the man who had answered the phone earlier when she heard the familiar voice.
Is that Ultraman Tiga? He arrived so quickly to save his sister.
In that instant, the man's terrifyingly cold image crumbled in the little boy's mind, and he thought the tall and upright man in front of him was very handsome.
“My sister is locked up at home. Come in with me.” Gu Bao led the man toward his room.
Dan Anwen looked at the security door in front of him, a dark and unfathomable light flashing in his eyes.
She should be glad she's a mother, otherwise he would have razed the house to the ground today.
Dan Anwen knocked on the door with his long, slender fingers. "Little friend, are you alright? Answer me."
Gu Ji sat on the edge of the bed with his hands clenched tightly. Hearing the familiar, warm male voice outside the door, he immediately stood up.
As a result, her knee, where the blood had clotted, suddenly ached, and her delicate, pale face contorted in pain.
The slight inhalation was clearly caught by Dan Anwen, who had keen ears outside the door. His previously calm expression furrowed slightly, and his tone became somewhat anxious, "What's wrong? Are you hurt?"
"It's nothing, just a scraped knee." Gu Ji glanced at his knee, where the blood had already congealed and there was a shocking bruise around it.
Gu Bao fidgeted slightly upon hearing this. He hadn't expected his mother to be so outrageous, not only tricking his sister into coming home to get married but also beating her.
Thinking of this, Gu Bao clenched her little hands into a fist, her tender little face tensed up, and her eyes opened with a fierce yet adorable look.
Dan Anwen glanced around but found no suitable tools to break down the door. His voice was slightly deep as he said, "Kid, stay away from the door."
Gu Ji didn't understand, but she did as the man said, her voice soft and gentle, "I've already gone far away."
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole room suddenly trembled, and bright light from outside instantly poured in through the crack in the door. The man stood against the light, his sharp features indistinct in the halo of light, looking just like a savior descending to earth.
