Gu Wan walked toward the yard.
Gong Mohan and Ji Shaozhang also followed her.
Erya's parents' faces were full of anxiety. Once they found out, today's matter might be a little unjustifiable.
Seeing that everyone had arrived at their backyard and stood at the door of the woodshed.
"Could you please open the door here?" Gu Wan looked at Erya's parents and said plainly.
The fisherman's face showed a touch of embarrassment. "There are just some sundries here …"
"Just open it. Why do you talk so much nonsense?" The village chief was also urging them to hurry up. For some reason, he felt that the couple's expressions had been very strange since just now.
Take this woodshed for example. It was just a place to pile sundries, but they even locked it with such a big lock.
Unless there was something fishy about it.
Erya's father gritted his teeth and finally took the key to the woodshed.
When the couple opened the woodshed, they were almost ready for the worst.
When the woodshed was opened, Gu Wan also hurried over.
Everyone looked inside together.
But when they walked in to take a look, there was nothing inside.
Erya's parents also looked strange. There were two living people inside. Why did they disappear? And the lock here was also locked.
At this moment, the couple's faces were more relaxed.
"I told you, this is just a place to pile sundries." Erya's father took a breath, looked at Gu Wan, and continued to say, "Miss, you can continue to look wherever you want. Although we are really a little unhappy with your approach, we won't say anything for the sake of the village head."
Gu Wan frowned slightly. Which part went wrong?
The news she got was that the couple locked Johnson and Little Fish in the woodshed.
Now the woodshed was empty when she opened it.
Gu Wan turned around and looked a little disappointed.
"You …"
In the next second, Er Ya's father's pupils dilated and he let out a cry of surprise. His neck had been tightly clutched by Gong Mohan.
The surrounding people were frightened by Gong Mohan's actions.
Even Gu Wan was a little surprised.
"Village Chief … Save me!"
Seeing this, Erya's mother hurriedly ran to the village chief and cried, "Village chief, let him let go, or the child's father will die in his hands."
"Tell me, do you know where Xiaoyu is?" The village head asked Erya's mother with a serious face.
"I really don't know. Everyone knows that we saved Xiao Yu. How could we harm him?"
Erya's mother was still unwilling to admit it.
Gong Mohan exerted more and more strength in his hands, and Erya's father's face began to turn purple.
"I'll say it one last time. Hand him over." Gong Mohan didn't look like he was joking at all.
If the couple refused to tell the truth, he would probably snap the fisherman's neck in the next second.
"I …"
Just when Erya's mother hesitated and didn't know how to speak, suddenly there was a noise in the woodshed.
Everyone's attention turned to the woodshed.
Even Gu Wan thought it was the baby, but it was Ding Lin who came out with a man in his hands.
When they saw this man, Erya's parents were frightened as if they had seen a ghost.
"Aldrich?" The village chief called out.
He thought, "Didn't Aldrich run away? How could he appear in the woodshed of the fisherman's house? "
Aldrich's face had already been beaten black and blue, and he looked at Ding Lin with fear.
This Ding Lin was really ruthless. Back then, when he chased him back from the sea, he had directly given him a good beating.
Then, Aldrich saw the fisherman who was being choked by Gong Mohan.
He immediately got angry. He directly shook off Ding Lin's hand, walked to the fisherman, and grabbed the fisherman's collar. "You bastard, you betrayed me. Well, let me go. The child is yours. How dare you find someone to catch me!"
When Aldrich said this, the villagers standing at the scene were all surprised.
Everyone looked at Erya's father.
The village chief was also full of anger, and his eyes were hazy.
He pointed at Erya's father with trembling fingers. "Did you really let Aldrich go?"
"Village chief, he wronged me. It was he who ran away with Xiaoyu. How could I let him go? He is a threat to us."
Erya's father's face became more and more flustered. He never thought that Aldrich would appear here.
Just after he finished speaking.
"Bang!" Aldrich's heavy punch landed on the fisherman's stomach.
"You bastard, you still don't admit it. Tell me, how much did you get from them that you betrayed me like this!" Aldrich's face was full of anger.
Originally, he should have taken a boat to a place where no one knew him, and he would not have been made into this by Ding Lin. It was all because of this man.
At this moment, Gong Mohan had already let go of the fisherman and stood aside.
Since someone was teaching the fisherman a lesson for him, he didn't have to dirty his hands.
Aldrich punched the fisherman again and again, and the fisherman's situation was similar to his.
"Let him go. Don't hit him anymore." Erya's mother quickly ran over and stood in front of Aldrich.
Aldrich's face was hazy. "Don't think that I dare not touch you because you are a woman."
"Either you beat me to death today. If you keep beating me, my husband will be killed by you." Er Ya's mother roared at Aldrich.
She didn't know what was going on. Why did things turn out like this?
"Okay, that's enough. Stop fighting. What is going on?" The village chief asked with a cold face.
Aldrich looked at the village chief and said, "What is going on? Then you should ask this person. "
Then, the village chief looked at Erya's parents and said, "Shouldn't you give an explanation to the whole village?"
"We …" The couple's faces were full of panic.
If they told the truth now, there would be no place left for them on this small island.
Of course, if they didn't tell the truth, they wouldn't have a good ending.
"I will give you one last chance. If you don't tell the truth, you will follow the rules of the village."
The village chief had no patience to talk to the couple anymore. His wrinkled face was already stained with anger.
"I'll tell you." The fisherman gritted his teeth.
The village chief nodded.
The fisherman thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I just thought that there were no children in our village and I wanted to keep Little Yu. But that day, everyone in your village wanted to kill the two of them. After all, children are innocent. I had no choice but to reach an agreement with Aldrich. I prepared a boat for him to escape, and then I kept Little Fish and hid him …"
When the fisherman finished his explanation, Gong Mohan and Gu Wan beside him exuded a chill.
They looked at the villagers and heard what the fisherman said.
For a moment, the village chief looked a little scared. "It was all a misunderstanding. Because Little Yu appeared with the pirates, and we were just scaring them. We didn't really want to …"
"A child has lived in your village for so long, and you suspect him of colluding with the pirates?" The bearded man stamped his feet and asked.
"I … It's my fault for not thinking it through at that time."
"If you didn't do that, Little Yu would not have disappeared. Today, your village must find Little Yu for me." The bearded man's face was full of displeasure.
"Where is he?" Gu Wan's eyes were filled with a frightening coldness.
"I really don't know. I admit that I did lock him in the woodshed at the beginning. I opened the woodshed just now. You saw it too. There was no one inside."
At that moment, there was another sound from the woodshed.
Then, Johnson's hand was holding onto a boy as he slowly walked out from inside.
When Gu Wan saw the baby, her face was filled with joy and fear.
Their eyes met. Gu Wan didn't speak for a long time.
Gong Mohan's gaze didn't leave the baby either. There was guilt, joy, and a sense of relief that he had regained what he had lost.
"Mommy …" The baby ran towards Gu Wan and threw himself into Gu Wan's arms.
Two streams of tears flowed from their eyes.
She protected the baby tightly in her arms. Gong Mohan had already taken a step towards Gu Wan and the baby, but he stopped in the end. After all, his identity was still somewhat awkward.
No one knew that he was Gong Mohan. If the matter between him and Gu Wan were to spread, it would bring trouble to Gu Wan. In the end, Gong Mohan chose to restrain himself.
Johnson, who walked out from the woodshed, fixed his eyes on Gong Mohan. Why did this person look so familiar?
However, Johnson didn't think of Gong Mohan. He took a look. The baby was finally reunited with Gu Wan. His heart finally calmed down.
"Let's go." Gu Wan turned around and held the baby's hand. They walked outside.
After walking a few steps, Erya ran out from the side and blocked the baby's way.
"Erya …" The baby looked at Erya with a complicated expression.
"Brother Xiaoyu, are you going to leave me behind and leave this place?" Erya asked in front of the baby with a face full of disappointment.
"I … If there's a chance, we'll meet again."
The baby hesitated for a while. He raised his head and looked at Erya again. "Erya, thank you for taking care of me these days. But now my family is here to pick me up. I have to go back."
