Tomorrow's ideal world

Chen Kai walked into the police station in a grand manner, and asked everyone he saw, "Why haven't you caught me yet?"

Even though he was used to seeing vicious gangsters, the appearance of this tranced suspect still terrified the criminal police.

Not just because of his weird words and deeds.

Chen Kai's clothes were covered with blood!

The police immediately took Chen Kai into custody. From the beginning to the end, Chen Kai did not resist, but cooperated extremely, and continued to laugh arrogantly and provocatively.

In an interrogation room, Ou Yiming and Ma Tao sat side by side at the table, facing Chen Kai locked in a chair.

Chen Kai bluntly said that the blood on the clothes belonged to Gu Sichen.

"What the hell did you do to him?!" Ou Yiming couldn't help roaring, his question was extremely emotional, and, as a criminal policeman, he seemed very unprofessional.

Seeing that the criminal policeman was out of control, Chen Kai smiled smugly, and deliberately showed endless aftertaste: "Ah, that kid is really... tender and moist, and his crying sound is nice..."

"Pa", Ou Yiming slapped the table, got up and was about to rush over, but was stopped by Ma Tao in time.

Ou Yiming: "I'll ask you again! Where did you hide him?"

Chen Kai: "You stupid pigs, if you have the ability to find it yourself."

"Okay, you have the guts..." Ou Yiming suppressed his anger, but had to soften his tone, "Then let me ask you again, is he still alive?"

Unexpectedly, the soft-spoken inquiry involved another human life, but the pervert remained unmoved, and his tone was idle and superior: "I was still alive when I left him."

This sentence is enough to make people chill. The implication is that Chen Kai will never reveal Gu Sichen's whereabouts. The reason why he surrendered himself to the police station is to wait to see the police being played around by him.

Judging from the area of ​​blood stains on Chen Kai's clothes, Gu Sichen was seriously injured in his hands. If Ou Yiming couldn't find Gu Sichen in time, then no one would treat Gu Sichen's injuries, or even provide him with food, and Gu Sichen would undoubtedly die.

Just when Ou Yiming was at a loss, Chen Kai said something that made him even more overwhelmed: "You stinking policemen, if you are smart enough to find that kid, then you will be my murder assistants."

Ou Yiming gritted his teeth and clenched his fists again.

Chen Kai had already begun to shake his head triumphantly: "Anyway, I'm a lunatic, even if I kill someone, I won't be sentenced to death..."

Ou Yiming rushed over suddenly, beating the cruel criminal hysterically.

Afterwards, Ou Yiming wrote an inspection, and his colleagues interceded for him, so he was able to continue with the case.

The blanket search was still going on, but Ou Yiming knew that they had to change their thinking.

Because of such an inefficient search, even if someone could be found in the end, it would be difficult to find a corpse.

He has done some research on criminal psychology. Through the interrogation of Chen Kai, he judged that although this person has some mental problems, the symptoms should be intermittent. At least during the conversation, Chen Kai's consciousness was normal, and he did everything he said and did. All out of sane reason.

So he applied to find an expert in psychology to communicate with Chen Kai, maybe he could find some flaws in Chen Kai's few words.

Or, more optimistically, through superb psychological induction, they might be able to persuade Chen Kai to let go of the innocent victim and explain Gu Sichen's whereabouts.

Ou Yiming's application was approved, but the result was still disappointing.

The police issued a nationwide call for help, and anyone willing to try would be invited to the police station to have a dialogue with Chen Kai.

But this utterly conscientious criminal did not get involved. The psychologists all came confidently and freely, and then left in disgrace.

Three days later, Gu Sichen's whereabouts are still unknown.Everyone tacitly knew that this innocent child was probably in danger.

Ou Yiming looked at the calendar, it was already the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.

He was so busy these days that he voluntarily gave up his vacation, and lived in the police station during the New Year's Eve.

It's been a year... Ou Yiming laughed bitterly at himself.

Then he thought of Gu Qingzhe, this year, he had a more difficult life.

It was already seven o'clock in the evening, Ou Yiming had been working hard for several days, so he simply relaxed for the night, and said hello to his colleagues, planning to visit Gu Qingzhe.

When I walked out of the police station, I was catching up with another psychiatrist who came to challenge me.The female police officer in charge of administration greeted and greeted Ou Yiming, and recommended him when she saw him.

The person who came was a young talent in his thirties, named Li Wenqian, whose dress and manner did not reveal any modesty.

Without being asked, he revealed his resume. He is an overseas Chinese in the United States, has a double doctorate in criminal psychology and behavioral psychology from a well-known university, a special consultant to the FBI in the United States, and has five years of clinical experience. He has assisted in solving serious international cases.

Ou Yiming listened patiently, but he thought in his heart that although he is a capable person, he has seen countless more capable people in the past few days. In comparison, Li Wenqian is nothing special.

Finally, after hearing Dr. Li finished speaking, Ou Yiming said a few more polite words, and then left.I thought to myself, such a young and conceited person is definitely no match for that bastard Chen Kai.

***

When Ou Yiming came to the hospital, he saw a nurse coming out of the ward angrily, and muttered, "You look pretty, why are you so stubborn!"

Who else is "pretty good-looking" in the six-person ward?As soon as Ou Yiming heard it, he knew it was Gu Qingzhe who was talking about, so he stepped forward and asked, "Beauty, who made you angry?"

Seeing Ou Yiming's hippie smiling face, the nurse also had an indescribable ruffian, thought it was a bum who came to strike up a conversation, and immediately became more wary than annoyed, smiled stiffly, and said, "Oh, it's okay, there's just someone The patient is disobedient and insists on leaving the hospital." After speaking, he turned sideways and left.

It was not difficult for Ou Yiming to guess the reason why Gu Qingzhe insisted on leaving the hospital, he shook his head helplessly.

Walking into the ward, seeing that Gu Qingzhe had already taken off his hospital gown, changed into his own clothes, put on the down jacket and went out.

"Hey, such a beautiful nurse made you cry!" Ou Yiming exaggerated on purpose, trying to make Gu Qingzhe happy by making jokes.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Gu Qingzhe saw him, he rushed over, grabbed his sleeve and begged: "Brother, you came just in time, take me to see that person quickly! I will beg him, and he will definitely listen! He will definitely let me go younger brother!"

Sure enough, as Ou Yiming expected, the police recruited psychologists in a grand manner, which naturally couldn't stop the media from intervening. Although Gu Qingzhe was lying in the hospital, he could easily see relevant reports with his mobile phone.

These kinds of reports will deliberately hide key plots, and the people involved in the case are all pseudonyms, but as the closest person to the victim, how could Gu Qingzhe fail to see that the report is about his younger brother's case?

"Five days have passed! Brother, my younger brother has never been away from me for so long. What happened to him? Please, let me see that person..."

Gu Qingzhe was in a trance, no matter how Ou Yiming tried to persuade him, he just begged blindly, as if if he could persuade Ou Yiming to let him go to see Chen Kai, he would be able to ensure that his brother would come back alive.

Begging and begging, Gu Qingzhe couldn't help sobbing again, Ou Yiming panicked, and other patients in the ward looked at them curiously, which made Ou Yiming feel even more embarrassed.

"Listen to me, you are in poor health now, please take care of yourself first? Besides, it's useless if you go..."

"Why is it useless? People can't be so cruel! I'm going to intercede with him. I want to tell him that as long as he returns his brother to me, I will forgive him. Neither my brother nor I will sue him. As long as he returns his brother give me back……"

"Enough!" Ou Yiming suddenly lost his temper, and suddenly pulled Gu Qingzhe's hand away from his sleeve.

Gu Qingzhe froze in front of him, staring like a frightened deer, and timidly took a step back.

Ou Yiming couldn't bear it, and said as gently as possible: "You don't know, that's an inhuman bastard. If you beg him, he won't sympathize, but he will have a sense of accomplishment; the more pain you suffer, the more proud he is, He just wants to see people suffer, you understand?"

Gu Qingzhe roared eagerly: "Then what should I do? It's been five days! He tortured Xiaochen for five days, isn't that enough?"

Gu Qingzhe turned his face away, choked up with sobs.

Ou Yiming patted him on the shoulder, and said softly: "You, you don't do this, and we...we will..." I couldn't speak anymore, what else could they do?

Gu Qingzhe wiped his face suddenly, and stepped out resolutely. Ou Yiming quickly grabbed his wrist, pulled him back in front of him, and shouted anxiously: "Why are you so stubborn? It's no use telling you to go!"

Gu Qingzhe said coldly: "Can't I go home too?"

Ou Yiming was taken aback: "You, you haven't recovered yet, the doctor didn't let you out of the hospital..."

Gu Qingzhe couldn't help choking again: "My brother is not dead yet, I still have a home! Today is the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, I want to go home!"

Ou Yiming sighed, with rare self-blame and helplessness in his heart, so he let go of Gu Qingzhe's hand and said, "Okay, I'll take you home."

***

In a taxi, there was nothing to say.

Arriving at Gu Qingzhe's house and opening the door, Ou Yiming's half body was still outside the door, while Gu Qingzhe was still in a daze, saying "Thank you" before closing the door.

"Hey!" Ou Yiming stretched out his hand to support the door, "Why don't you invite me in for a sit-down?"

Ou Yiming licked his face and wanted to stay. Firstly, he was a little annoyed at Gu Qingzhe's neglect. The more important reason was that with Gu Qingzhe's current state, he was worried about leaving him alone.

Gu Qingzhe was stunned for a moment, nodded stiffly, let go of the door, turned around and left, Ou Yiming followed shyly, and closed the door casually.

It was a cozy one-bedroom room. There was a bed next to the sofa in the living room. There must have been too few rooms. One of the brothers slept in the bedroom, and the other slept in the living room.

Judging by how much Gu Qingzhe loves his younger brother, the one sleeping in the living room must be him.

Ou Yiming looked around, Gu Qingzhe said in a daze, "I'm going to take a shower." Before Ou Yiming could respond, he went to the bathroom.

How indifferent, Ou Yiming smiled.

It soon occurred to him that when he first met Gu Qingzhe, he was a good young man who knew how to be polite. It could be seen that his mental state was on the verge of losing control at this time, and he was in a trance, that's why he did such a disrespectful thing.

We must persuade him well, Ou Yiming thought so.

Looking around, the room is very tidy, the decoration is simple but it reveals the vitality of a young boy.

Ou Yiming thinks for no reason that such a warm home must be taken care of by Gu Qingzhe; for these two brothers who depend on each other, the elder brother must take care of the younger brother on weekdays, while the younger brother only cares about being willful and mischievous.

He saw a can of chocolate powder on the coffee table, and remembered that a certain female colleague always liked to eat sweets when she was in a bad mood. Gu Qingzhe guessed that Gu Qingzhe was about to take a shower, so he walked into the kitchen, boiled a pot of water, and found another He got a cup and made Gu Qingzhe a cup of hot chocolate.

Putting the cup on the tea table, sitting and waiting for a while, the bathroom door opened, and Gu Qingzhe came out wearing a white bathrobe.

At that moment, Ou Yiming was unconsciously stunned for a moment, and his heart also missed half a beat.

He was taken aback by his own reaction, but soon thought he had found the reason: people will be elated when they see beautiful things, especially when they see beauties. People can't help but sigh.

Ou Yiming came back to his senses, but still smiled a little stiffly, picked up the cup of hot chocolate, and said in an anticlimactic way: "Come, drink while it's hot."

Gu Qingzhe stared at the cup for a while, his eyes became very gentle, and then there was a layer of sadness, and he smiled faintly: "I don't drink this, but Xiaochen likes it very much."

Ou Yiming was stunned. He wanted to make him happy, but he accidentally reminded him of his younger brother.

Ou Yiming was at a loss while holding the cup, but Gu Qingzhe sat down on the sofa beside him, took the cup, and drank slowly.

With a blurred and poignant expression, Ou Yiming knew that Gu Qingzhe was tasting his younger brother's favorite taste at this moment, so as to express his longing and the sadness of parting.

Something had to be done, so he couldn't let him sink into his emotions.Ou Yiming was thinking like this, and noticed that Gu Qingzhe's hair was still dripping, so he asked bluntly, "Where is your hair dryer?"

Gu Qingzhe was taken aback, and replied honestly: "In the bathroom, in the wall cabinet..."

Ou Yiming got up and strode over. Gu Qingzhe saw him rummaging through boxes and cabinets in the bathroom, and then realized that his hair was still wet.

Ou Yiming came back with a hair dryer, Gu Qingzhe said thank you, and reached out to take it.

It never occurred to Ou Yiming to avoid his hand, walk to the back of the sofa, directly behind him, turn on the hair dryer, and blow dry his hair.

Gu Qingzhe was very surprised, shrunk his shoulders, and didn't dare to move for a while.

Ou Yiming grinned and said, "How about it, is it the first time you enjoy this kind of treatment? We are the captain of the criminal investigation team!"

Gu Qingzhe smiled politely, the hot air from the hair dryer brushed through his wet hair, and Ou Yiming's palm gently touched him. This kind of touch made him warm and comfortable, and gradually he relaxed physically and mentally.

"Your hair is quite soft..." Ou Yiming was talking about his feelings casually, but in an instant, this situation and a certain fragment in his memory overlapped together suddenly.

It's been too long, and he has never dared to touch the past that has been sealed in the depths of his memory, so much so that he once thought he had forgotten it as he wished.

But in fact he has not forgotten, and it is impossible to forget. Now that this memory passively surfaced in his mind, Ou Yiming was stunned for a while, feeling a sense of emptiness as if he had passed away.

Ten years ago, that boy was as handsome and beautiful as Gu Qingzhe, he dried his hair for him, and after the bath, the boy snuggled into his arms, and he greedily sucked the fragrance of the boy's body...

"Brother..." Gu Qingzhe called softly.

Ou Yiming woke up suddenly, and responded in a panic, "Huh?"

"You said, is my brother dead?" Gu Qingzhe asked calmly, as if he could accept the worst.

But Ou Yiming replied without any basis: "No! How come...you're thinking wildly..." But the more he said, the more he lost his confidence.

Gu Qingzhe smiled as if sighing, his eyes began to wander again: "When Mom and Dad passed away, I lied to my brother in the same way."

Ou Yiming seemed to have something stuck in his throat, and his Adam's apple slipped a few times, but he couldn't speak. Suddenly he felt the sound of the hair dryer was very loud, so he turned it off annoyed.

Gu Qingzhe continued with his temper: "My family used to run a clothing store, and my parents worked day and night to make us live better. Once when they went to the south to buy goods, a big truck hit their car... ..."

Ou Yiming sat next to Gu Qingzhe, looking at him worriedly.

Gu Qingzhe was still staring at the emptiness in the distance, and said to himself: "At that time, I was 12 years old and Xiaochen was seven years old. He cried and asked me if my parents were dead. I told him, no! They just Too busy, as long as Xiaochen is obedient, they will come back soon. My younger brother cried, saying that I lied to him, that Mom and Dad won't come back... they won't come back..."

Tears kept falling from Gu Qingzhe's eyes.

Ou Yiming held him tightly by the shoulders, and swore: "Don't keep talking about being discouraged, many of us are working hard, and we won't give up! Maybe in a few hours, no! In a few minutes, it will be all right. News!"

Gu Qingzhe broke away from Ou Yiming's hand, sobbing and said: "It's all my fault, I was the one who caused him trouble! That night... It was originally my job, but I had a high fever. Xiaochen felt sorry for me and went to work for me. Will... the person who should be arrested by that bastard should have been me!"

Ou Yiming: "Don't think so... No one thought that this kind of thing would happen..."

But Gu Qingzhe became more and more sad as he talked, and thought of the past: "After my parents passed away, my brother and I were sent to the orphanage. I was old and no one wanted me. Xiaochen is very cute and smart. Many people want to adopt him. , he just caused trouble on purpose and made people hate him, so he can stay with me in the orphanage...Xiaochen, brother, I'm sorry..."

Gu Qingzhe lowered his head and sobbed.

Ou Yiming didn't intend to persuade him anymore, he thought to himself, cry, cry, it's better to cry with me than to let you think wildly by yourself.
