I returned to the living room with the materials with a wooden face, and I was immersed in the matter of Lin cherishing my brother. Jin Hao and Zheng Min saw that my expression was wrong, so they glanced at Wei Kai behind me, Wei Kai just shrugged his shoulders and made an innocent look, maybe my expression was too scary, and the two of them looked at me again and hurriedly walked back to their room. After that, I sat on the sofa and fell into deep thought, and Wei Kai took advantage of my stunned moment to take the information bag from my hand and open it. "Instead of lamenting the misery of someone else's fate here, it is more practical to think about how to help that person."

After being stunned for a while, I took the information back from Wei Kai's hand, and in desperation, Wei Kai had to come over and open the information with me. "The information is so complete, this boy's family is really interested in him." Wei Kai looked at the thick information in my hand and sighed.

"Because it's a family member, that's why I tried my best to pull this child back when he went astray. Okay, I'll see what valuable clues his family has found, so that we can find the location of this child next. After all, his family only photographed the places they knew, ignoring others that seemed impossible, but instead were the places where the child often hid. Children are very smart, and even the safest place is the safest place, so when he doesn't want to be found out by his parents, he just goes to hide where his parents probably think he will never go. You see some children, they don't study very well, parents will always mistakenly think that this child went to an Internet café like this, although most of the bear children will skip class to go to the Internet café, but for those children who really want to run away from home, they will not go to the Internet café or discotheque This kind of parent letter clearly looks for the location, dare to go back to the low point that the parents deliberately ignore, can you guess that once again I and Ban Que went to help a mother find his runaway child, not in the Internet café, not in the game hall, Is it the child who was found at the end of the library? "I think back to that hiring experience. I was just stopping by to change a book, but I accidentally glanced at the reading area in the glass cubicle while waiting in line, and saw the child lying on the table flipping through the thick book in his hand. Instead of disturbing the kid, we stared at him in the reading area for an afternoon, and it wasn't until he walked out of the library that we stopped him and sent him home as planned.

"Didn't he skip school? Skipping school to go to the library doesn't make sense at all. Wei Kai showed an incredulous expression when he heard what I said.

I thought back to the scene at that time, and I remembered that Ban Que and I did not send it directly back to his mother, but took him to the night market for dinner, and Wei Kai ordered beer, but the child's self-control was so good that it was surprisingly good, and he even directly said that he was a minor, and asked Wei Kai not to buy him alcohol to drink. Later, when we were eating and chatting, he slowly told us the reason why he ran away from home: "At that time, the child felt that his parents did not love him, the two divorced, and the family property was completed for a long time, but no one cared about his custody, she said that she had been away from home for more than a week, but no one came to him until today." He even thought that he skipped school just to go to an Internet café to play games, and he didn't even think that his countless troubles were just because he wanted to get the attention of the two of them. He went to the library during the day and the 24-hour bookstore at night, in fact, he occasionally went home to wash, but his parents did not even notice that he had ever returned home. thought that his family was already in a mess after the divorce and division of the family property, and there was no sense of home at all, so in fact, he didn't think about going back, and going back with us was just a routine. ”

Wei Kai asked with a look of surprise, "What happened to him?" Didn't his parents ask where you found him? ”

I shook my head: "His parents don't have the patience of yours, and they just scolded the child for a stinking meal, and they didn't even ask the child if he had eaten, nor did he ask us anything, so they arbitrarily asked the child in front of us if he had a rich Internet café." The child was also very stubborn, so he nodded and admitted, and after receiving a punch and kick and chips from his mother, he threw the child to his grandfather. The two of them continued to fight back and forth over the broken property. ”

"What happened to that kid?" Wei Kai asked cautiously. With a look of anticipation on my face, I suddenly remembered the first time I saw him on the side of the road, where he was crouching on the side of the road with his head buried in his arms. The little man was curled up on the side of the road, shaking from sobbing, looking pitiful. We took him home and have stayed with us ever since. I remembered that the reason why she was crying at that time was surprisingly similar to the truant boy we were looking for. It's just that Wei Kai himself is not the child of the couple, but they are entrusted to raise Wei Kai to grow up. That's why Wei Kai showed a sympathetic expression when he heard what I said, he should have thought of the almost identical thing that happened to him.

I regretted saying this a little, and was about to change the topic in a hurry, but Wei Kai did not give up, but kept asking, the boss may have heard our movements in the house, and came out to urge us to focus on the case at hand, and stop thinking about the things that have happened that cannot be changed.

"That kid ended up being bad, right?" Wei Kai's face darkened when he heard the boss say that he couldn't change it.

I waved my hand and slowly flipped through the information: "Not really. I looked up at him, "Work first, I'll be talking to you about that kid after this case is over." However, I will not be able to continue to talk to you about the events of the year until this commission is completely completed and we find Lin Zhenzhen's younger brother. I pointed to the materials in my hand, "So now focus on the papers." ”

"It's not that you can't make it up now." Wei Kai muttered on the side, but he still looked at the information with me.

I patted him on the shoulder: "No, I haven't been able to use it to give you stories while taking commissions, so don't worry, I'll be honest with you as soon as the commission fee arrives." Let's save the little boy in front of us first. ”

The boy who entrusted our crane this time, named Su Baijia, is exactly 17 years old this year, and he will experience the first experience in his life in another year - the college entrance examination, but at this critical juncture, this child is gone. A month after entering the third year of high school, the child seemed to have evaporated from the world and never appeared anywhere where he went to bed again, after which his aunt and uncle (Lin Zhenzhen's parents) met Su Baijia, who had been missing for a month, at the police station when they received a call from the police. Su Baijia was caught in a nightclub, and he was arrested with several young people who were a few years older than him, when he was arrested, those young people were already sitting on the sofa in the nightclub in a delirium, Su Baijia was not in a good state at the time, but it was normal compared to other people around him.

After the police arrested him, they did a urine test and a blood test, and found nothing unusual except for the excessively high alcohol content, and Su Baijia did not do anything at the time, except that the minor entered the nightclub, and after being educated, he contacted his family. However, because the police were worried that there would be other conditions, they specially told his guardian to take him to the hospital for a more detailed examination, and if he really wanted the people around him to have the first signs of drug use, they could also pull the child out of the quagmire as soon as possible.

"I think it's completely possible to rule out drug use." Wei Kai said when he saw this.

"Do you think you found him in the gang?" I agreed with Wei Kai's statement, "If she was alone and was found unconscious, suspected of drug use, but could not find any abnormalities, it could be considered a new type of drug, but if it was in the gang, all of them showed signs of drug use, but if he didn't, he really hadn't done such a thing." Because it is simply impossible for others to let him try this new drug alone. So it's unlikely that he's taking drugs, and I think her aunt and uncle may have misunderstood the police, who were probably worried about him and wanted his guardian to check on his physical condition after he sobered up, and you see that the information didn't mention that he was a drug user. It's just that her aunt and uncle are worried, so they have some preconceived ideas that if he associates with those people, he will get the same bad habits as them. Later, when he was taken to the hospital, it may have hurt the child's self-esteem, and the embarrassment of adolescence may have made him choose to flee again. So for the time being, it can be determined that this child's self-control is quite good, at least when she first found her, she did not become addicted to drugs. ”

Wei Kai's expression became serious: "But I am still not sure if his aunt's practice of taking her to the hospital will become a negative reinforcement, but he has a few rebellious emotions." ”

"So we're going to find him as soon as possible."

Wei Kai nodded, looked at the information for a while, and found that there were no other clues, coupled with the hard work of the past two days, we finally decided to get up early tomorrow to find his classmates near his school and ask if there were any clues worth digging. In the middle of the night, I seemed to hear the chatter between the boss and Jin Hao from the living room.

"Do you really think it's better to leave this commission to the two of them?" Jin Hao asked the boss, "I'm worried about Wei Kai." ”

"Worried about what she's doing?" The boss asked, "Didn't you cooperate well with Xiaozhi this time?" ”

If Wei Kai was really angry, Xiaozhi couldn't stop her. I'm afraid that Xiaozhi will go to the police again to stop him. ”

The boss interrupted him: "Don't think too much, when Xiaozhi cooperated with you and Zheng Min, it was because the scene was really out of control at that time, and she had no choice but to find foreign aid." But his current mark is getting better and better, and you have to believe that Xiaozhi has returned to the way it was before. ”

"I don't want her to go back to the way she used to be, and now it's fine." Jin Hao's voice was very small when he spoke, and I was not very conscious, so I only vaguely heard these words.

"Don't worry, she won't change back. Since he chose the way he is now, I think this is the happiest way for her to live. The boss comforted him like this, and I thought I was too sleepy, and I never heard the rest of the words clearly, and fell into a deep sleep again.

When I knew the alarm clock would wake me up, I saw that it was already half past five in the morning. Probably hearing my alarm clock, Zheng Min, who lived in the same room as me, looked up at me, then smashed herself back into her bed, and shrunk into the quilt with her back to me. Because of low blood pressure, I am not very clear for the time being, I always feel as if I want to do something, but I can't remember what it is, plus the sleepy bugs have been pestering me, so I don't want to leave the warm bed in the winter morning at all. There were a few knocks, and I stuffed myself under the covers and said, 'Please come in.'" I don't know if the other party didn't hear it, or kept knocking on the door suspiciously, but in desperation, I should have the courage to get out of bed and open the door in the cold air of the winter morning. When he opened the door, he saw Wei Kai smiling as hard as ever.

"What for?" I looked at him with an unkind look and asked.

"Let's go to school together. Didn't you say it was okay last night? Wei Kai tilted his head and smiled at me, and then I remembered what I had to prepare for in my daze. I slammed on the door, and when I opened the door again, I was already dressed in front of Wei Kai, who sat on the sofa in the living room and pointed to the breakfast on the dining table: "The boss said that you can only go out after breakfast." ”

"Where's the boss?" I asked him and sat down at the table to serve himself chicken porridge for the night.

"After instructing me to put out the porridge in the electric stew pot, I went back to my room to sleep." Wei Kai pointed to the door of the boss's room and made a silent gesture.

After breakfast, Wei Kai and I drove to Su Baijia's school, where we lived was some distance away from Su Baijia's study, so I decided to read the information given to us by the boss again on the way. "I once went to the United States to film for a few days because of my work, and I know very well what drugs can ruin a person."

I looked at Wei Kai, I know what he thought he had when he was a child, so he was particularly concerned about some children's affairs, and it was no wonder that yesterday I vaguely heard Jin Hao's worry about Wei Kai taking this commission.

"At that time, I was a character who played a little more than Passerby A, and there was a scene in the movie about the male protagonist's friend who died of a drug overdose, and the male protagonist watched his friend's death because he was also corroded by drugs, and he couldn't even help him make a distress call. After the death of a friend, the male protagonist swore like an epiphany that he could never fall again, to quit drugs, and then return to life step by step. ”

"I've seen that movie, a biographical movie, haven't I? It was a good movie, you were playing a doctor, and I remember in the movie, when the male protagonist was discharged from the hospital, you put your hand on his shoulder and told him where his friend was buried, saying that you heard it from the chat of his friend's family. It seems that his friend's family did not approve of him going to his friend's funeral, and you told him where his friend was buried, and then she looked at you with gratitude in her eyes, and she knelt down in front of his friend's grave is impressive, the male protagonist's acting skills are very good, and then he worked hard to get rid of drugs, and then he struggled to live after coming out of the drug rehabilitation center, and finally slowly discovered his potential, and the way he worked hard to live is impressive. It's a good movie, and the idea is very profound. ”

Wei Kai smiled helplessly and shook his head: "But that's not what I want to say. ”

"What's that?" I asked him curiously.

Wei Kai's expression darkened: "But when filming, the scene I said was actually filmed several times." At that time, there was a staff member in the crew, and when he saw Yan holding the actor who was hungry and falling to the ground in convulsions, he suddenly held his head and yelled in place, as if he was suddenly stimulated, and many people didn't know what was going on, and after a long time, we couldn't continue filming until the ambulance pulled him away. may be because of the interruption in the middle of the process, the actor's feelings were interrupted all of a sudden, and that scene was filmed several times but could not achieve the expected effect, so the director changed the next scene to shoot. My scene happened to be postponed and wronged. Because I couldn't do nothing, the director team asked me to temporarily take over the work of the crew. Later, when I needed to ask him about something, I went to the hospital and learned from the man who was yelling that he was irritated. When he was in junior high school, his brother died of an overdose of illegal drugs. ”

I didn't know what to say for a while, so I could only stare at Wei Kai, hoping that he wouldn't be too excited, but I didn't turn on and just stared at the traffic light in front of me expressionlessly.

Wei Kai then said to me, but instead of talking about the staff member's brother, he turned his head and asked me, "Xiaozhi, do you know how many people die every year from drug use?" ”

I shook my head: "I don't know the exact number, but I know there must be a lot." ”

Wei Kai nodded: "The World Health Organization updated a set of data in 2000, 100,000 people die every year in the world from drug abuse, but there are 10 million people who lose their normal intelligence and work ability because of drug abuse. And many of those who thought they had died from drugs were just underage children. Among those who thought it was killed by drugs was the staff member's brother. His brother was only 16 years old when he died, you know adolescence, many children do not have the ability to distinguish between right and wrong, plus his parents think that because of the internal work, they can't stay at home all the year round, and it is usually his brother who takes care of him at home. Probably neglected, his brother befriended some bad teenagers in society, starting with cough syrup with ******, his brother slowly began to take drugs, and finally, while trying high-purity psychedelics, his brother and those so-called friends died in his home, and he was only 10 years old at the time, he said that he pushed his brother, thinking that his brother was just asleep as usual, but unfortunately, this time his brother never woke up and gave him a big hug. His brother died. For this reason, he later suffered from serious psychological problems, and it took five years of medication to return to normal life, but the scene of the death of his brother and his friend at that time was still a nightmare for him that he will never forget. The man kept crying when he said this, and he said that his brother had always been a hero in his eyes, who could help him settle all his troubles, and that he had always admired his brother, but he knew that because of drugs, his hero would never come back. He said 16,000 nominal Americans die each year from overdoses and misuse of illicit drugs, and that these are just some of the 500,000 drug-related emergencies in emergency centers, some of whom are lucky to survive. But his brother didn't. ”

"That scene in the movie was torture for him." Reliving the nightmare at that time, I mentally added the second half of the sentence.

Wei Kai's expression looked a little sad: "He applied to help the crew by himself, and he had an uncle who was responsible for putting on makeup for the actors in the crew and helped him find a job in the crew." He wanted to face the incident back then, experience the scene with the mentality of an adult, and comfort the child who lived in his heart and was afraid to face reality because of that nightmare. But unfortunately, he still has no way to face the nightmare of the year, even if he knows that all the scenes in the movie are fake, he sees the male protagonist who thinks he can't call for help and is in pain and helpless, he can't forgive himself for not calling the police to stop his brother from going wrong. ”

"He was just a kid then. For a ten-year-old, he doesn't even have the power to stop his brother. ”

This did not comfort him, and I advised him to do the same, but to no avail, he blamed himself for his brother's death. I can understand how he feels, because I have felt the pain of my brother's departure as much as he did. ”

I know that the brother Wei Kai is talking about is Ban Que. Wei Kai continued: "I can't help him, I can't even heal myself. Not to mention comforting others. ”

"What happened?" I want Wei Kai to get out of this sad mood.

He slowly got better, and when everyone felt that his guilt was going to put him in the same trouble as his brother, he went to the youth support center to help the young people who were addicted to drugs because of their lack of work. He felt that he had no way to save his brother back then, but when he grew up and became stronger, he had the ability to help more helpless children like her brother, and he didn't want his brother's tragedy to happen to other families again. He did not fall, but became more kind and strong. When I saw him last year, he was married, his wife was beautiful, and they met when they were volunteering together at the drop-in center. ”

"His brother has been watching over him." I thought for a moment and said, "It's like Banque has been guarding us all along." (To be continued.) )
