Tomorrow's ideal world

New Year's Eve.

It was past eleven o'clock in the evening, and only one or two people occasionally passed by in the narrow alley.

The man with a ferocious face had been standing at the entrance of the alley for a long time.

The next person to walk in is about to act!

It's better to be a woman, so when performing tasks, there are other fun things to do - the man thought so, and couldn't help but smile wretchedly.

But the benefactor said that it must be the tenth person who walks into the alley, and it is up to him to choose whether it is a man or a woman.

Ah, here we come!

It's a boy, about fifteen or sixteen years old, and he's pretty good-looking when he's small.

The man nodded, and a savage coldness flashed in his eyes. He took out a towel and a wine bottle from his crossbody bag. The wine bottle was obviously not ordinary liquor.

The man soaked the towel with the liquid in the wine bottle, stared at the boy who walked into the alley, like a wild beast waiting for an opportunity to catch its prey, and followed fiercely and slyly...

***

Seeing that it was almost dawn, Ou Yiming stood up from his chair and stretched.

The surroundings are rare and quiet, the city seems to have just finished a big party, day and night are turned upside down, and just fell asleep at dawn.

Looking back at Ma Tao who was on duty with him, he was sleeping soundly on the table, Ou Yiming woke him up: "Hey, I'm off work, go home and eat dumplings."

Ma Tao straightened up, rubbed his eyes, and muttered, "Oh...it's morning so soon, hehe, Thirty's on duty at night is peace."

Ou Yiming pouted, this unlucky kid, since he was afraid of getting into trouble, why did he come to be a criminal police officer?

It was a peaceful night, not even a case of petty theft. Ou Yiming and Ma Tao were getting ready to get off work when a boy rushed in.

"My brother is missing!"

The boy was very anxious, Ou Yiming raised his eyes and thought unreliably: Well, it's quite beautiful.

Ma Tao quickly put back the half-yawned yawn, and beckoned the boy to sit down at the desk.

"I, my brother last night... was supposed to be the latest... before eleven o'clock...but he has been..."

The boy was obviously too anxious, and his voice trembled a little. Although he spoke incoherently, Ou Yiming grasped the key information.

He looked at his watch, the time was five fifty in the morning.

"Let me interrupt. In other words, your brother has not been missing for more than seven hours?"

The boy was taken aback, blinked at Ou Yiming, nodded, and immediately understood what Ou Yiming meant, and hurriedly said:

"Mr. Police, I know you can't call the police if you're missing for more than 24 hours, but my brother has always been very good! He can't be out all night! What's more, yesterday was New Year's Eve!"

Seeing the anxious look of the boy, Ou Yiming hurriedly explained:

"Don't get excited, there is a misunderstanding here: If citizens suspect that someone is missing, they can call the police at any time, and we will accept it; the so-called 24 hours means that the police will only file a case if the person is missing for more than 24 hours."

Hearing this, the boy stood up from the chair quickly: "Then help me find my brother!"

Ou Yiming raised his hand to signal the boy to sit down, took the time to light a cigarette, and said, "Don't worry, tell me the general situation first, what's your name?"

The boy had no choice but to sit back and whispered back: "Gu Sichen."

Ma Tao started recording on the computer.

"how old are you?"

"fifteen."

"Huh?" Ou Yiming blew out a smoke ring, and stared at the boy with wide eyes, "So young?"

The boy was stunned for a moment before he realized: "Oh, I, I thought you were asking about my brother! My brother is Gu Sichen, and he is 15 years old this year!"

Ma Tao secretly complained: I really can't blame the boy for giving the wrong answer. What is the boss doing?Don't ask about the missing person's information, but ask the reporter's age?

Seeing the helpless and flustered look of the boy, Ou Yiming couldn't help feeling pity, so he smiled soothingly, and said softly, "What about you? What's your name? How old are you?"

The boy replied: "My name is Gu Qingzhe, and I'm twenty."

"Gu Qingzhe, Gu Sichen..." Although they have the same surname, the two names are quite different, "Are you brothers?"

The boy nodded, and then urgently talked about his younger brother: "Brother policeman, my younger brother went to work in a fast food restaurant last night, and he finished work at 10:30, and it took half an hour at most on the way home! My younger brother is very good, it is impossible to spend the night outside , let alone not going home without saying hello to me!"

Ma Tao crackled the keyboard, and Ou Yiming asked the fast food restaurant, the location of the boy's house, and the route the boy's younger brother took to get home.

Then he found a photo of his younger brother from the boy's cell phone. After filing it for the record, Ou Yiming pressed the cigarette butt in the ashtray and extinguished it, and asked casually, "How is the family now?"

He was expressing concern and asking about the situation of the boy's parents, but he never thought that the boy would hear the words, so he pursed his lips and lowered his head.

Ou Yiming and Ma Tao looked at each other puzzled, and after a while, Gu Qingzhe said tremblingly, "My family...only my brother and I."

Ou Yiming's heart tightened. At this moment, the boy suddenly raised his head and stared at him with burning eyes: "Brother policeman, you must help me find my brother! If something happens to him... I, I am alone..."

The boy couldn't speak any more, he bit his lip tightly, lowered his head and choked up suppressedly.

Although Ou Yiming is only 25 years old, he has been a policeman for three years and has experienced countless tragic cases. Although his kind nature has not changed, he no longer easily empathizes with him.

But at this time, he felt pity for Gu Qingzhe for no reason, and he was not in a hurry to go back after he was on the night shift. Together with his colleagues in the day shift, he investigated Gu Sichen's disappearance.

However, I didn't expect that the suspect was quickly locked in the case, and it went so smoothly that it was unbelievable.

In other words, the degree of blatantness of the perpetrator is unbelievable.

On the way home from the fast food restaurant, Gu Sichen had to pass through a remote alley. Fortunately, a monitor was installed on the telephone pole at the entrance of the alley, and the entire alley was within its monitoring range.

The kidnapping happened in this narrow alley.

Ou Yiming and his colleagues checked the surveillance video on New Year's Eve. At 23:[-], Gu Sichen appeared on the screen.Not long after, another person appeared.

The man sneaked behind him, looked around to confirm that there was no one there, and rushed towards Gu Sichen suddenly.

Gu Sichen was obviously terrified, and entangled with the man for a while, but the man covered his mouth with a towel, and soon passed out.

Then, the man performed a horrific act.

He is a fat middle-aged man, dressed in sloppy clothes, with a wretched expression and obscene manner.

After knocking Gu Sichen into a coma, he half-embraced him in his arms, looked up and found the position of the surveillance probe, and even laughed ferociously at the probe.

Then, he grabbed Gu Sichen by the collar with one hand and lifted him up, and slapped Gu Sichen fiercely on the face with the other hand. After two slaps, he bent his knees again and gave the boy a few hard pushes on the boy's abdomen.

The stunned teenager's body twitched obviously. It must be that the kidnappers hit too hard, even in a coma, he could feel the pain.

But the kidnapper still didn't stop, winking at the probe while beating.

It was clearly a provocation to the investigating police!

He finally had enough performances in front of the probe, he carried the unconscious Gu Sichen on his shoulders, and strode away.

The policemen who had seen the surveillance video were all indignant. Ou Yiming clenched his fists and clacked, but he explained rationally that he must not tell Gu Qingzhe what happened in the video.

On the one hand, the deployment was carried out extremely quickly, and the most urgent task was to determine the identity of the man in the video.

The man was blatant in front of the camera, so he was naturally not afraid of being identified by the police.

Three hours later, there was progress, but the facts sent shivers down the investigators' spines.

The man's name is Chen Kai, 43 years old. He suffers from severe bipolar disorder with a medical history of 21 years. It is said that he is in a trance when he is emotional.

This must be the reason why he dared to commit crimes arrogantly-restricting his capacity for civil conduct, even if he committed murder, he would not be severely punished.

But after thinking about it, Gu Sichen's life safety is not optimistic.

What's even more frightening is that after confirming with Gu Qingzhe, the Gu family brothers have never met Chen Kai, let alone have any conflicts of interest with this person.

That is to say, it is very likely that Chen Kai did not have a specific victim this time. He was waiting for the opportunity to commit the crime, and the reason why he chose Gu Sichen was just because this young man happened to pass by there.

Ou Yiming immediately wrote a report and submitted it, and the city bureau quickly set up a task force to search for the whereabouts of Chen Kai and the victim.

I thought the identity of the suspect was confirmed and the scene of the crime was convincing, so I just followed the clues, but I didn’t expect that the special case team mobilized a large number of police forces to search with a radius of ten kilometers around the crime scene, and the police forces of all parties cooperated online. Still no gains.

Gu Qingzhe came to the police station almost every two or three hours to inquire about the progress of the case, but he was always disappointed and begged bitterly.

A sunny boy, but physically and mentally exhausted from fear and worry, anyone who reads it will feel distressed.

Another day passed, and seeing that the golden 48 hours of tracing had passed, Ou Yiming was puzzled.

In addition to hiding themselves, the targets of the search must also control the victims. They are not criminals with high IQs, but have obvious mental defects. The police have laid a net and mobilized all advanced technical means. There is no reason to find people.

On the night of the second day of the Lunar New Year, Gu Qingzhe couldn't bear it anymore, rushed into the Public Security Bureau, and knelt down in front of Ou Yiming with a plop.

Ou Yiming hurriedly stood up to help, but Gu Qingzhe held his hands tightly.

The boy sobbed and begged: "Brother... You, you tell me... Where is my brother? You, don't you already know who kidnapped him? Go find that person! Let him return my brother to me I'll give him whatever he wants!"

Ou Yiming was at a loss, looking around, there were expressions of pity and helplessness, Ou Yiming sighed, while Gu Qingzhe had been looking at him eagerly, he gritted his teeth and decided to tell the truth to Gu Qingzhe.

"You get up first."

After saying something in a low voice that could not be disobeyed, Gu Qingzhe stood up obediently, and was pushed down on a chair by Ou Yiming.

Ou Yiming sat opposite him, leaning his upper body slightly towards him, raised his hand and scratched his eyebrows uncomfortably, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Don't worry too much, we've been doing our best to investigate the case, but we didn't expect the suspect to be so cunning, Also, you need to know... well, I think you need to know..."

Gu Qingzhe stared at him with big bright eyes, without blinking. On his pale face, the expression was terrified, but there was also a faint hope.

Ou Yiming couldn't help being stunned, coughed a few times, his eyes wandered for a moment, and then continued: "The person who kidnapped your brother has a serious mental illness. To be precise, he, he has sadism..."

Gu Qingzhe opened his eyes, and his whole body remained motionless as if he was frozen, only tears kept pouring out of his eyes. Ou Yiming was startled, and hurriedly reached out to shake Gu Qingzhe's shoulder: "Hey, cheer up! We haven't found it yet. He, there is still hope! Hey!"

Ou Yiming slapped Gu Qingzhe's face again, and shouted: "Gu Qingzhe, wake up quickly! Don't be so useless! Your brother is still waiting for you to pick him up!"

Gu Qingzhe suddenly panted loudly, grabbed Ou Yiming's hand tightly, and opened his mouth to say something, but at this moment, a stream of blood gushed from the corner of his mouth, and Gu Qingzhe passed out.

The ambulance took Gu Qingzhe to the nearest hospital. Ou Yiming rushed to make arrangements. After the doctor diagnosed and treated Gu Qingzhe, he was arranged to be admitted to the ward.

Ou Yiming hurriedly asked about Gu Qingzhe's condition, and the doctor's answer was: the patient must have been too worried for a while, didn't rest well, and hadn't eaten for at least 36 hours, and the patient's liver and spleen were not very good, and the anger was overwhelming, so he fainted and vomited blood symptoms.

Walking into the ward, looking at the drowsy Gu Qingzhe, Ou Yiming frowned pityingly.

At this time, the phone rang loudly.

Afraid of affecting Gu Qingzhe's rest, Ou Yiming ran out of the ward in a hurry and stood in the corridor to answer the phone.

It was Ma Tao who called, and when he connected, he immediately shouted: "Boss, come back quickly! That grandson of Chen Kai has surrendered himself!"
