[Criminal Minds] Wooden Legs of Justice

Chapter 9 [Case 1] The missing person at the party

"God!" James was shocked when he heard that Petter had committed suicide. "I thought it was him! Old Petter was with us at the party, and even though he was wearing a mask, I knew it was him!"

James swallowed hard, and said in horror: "Ever since I heard that someone died, he started to talk a little bit, and he didn't even show up at the party. I always thought he did it!"

"I didn't do anything, I won't kill anyone! I have no reason to do that, right?" James finally realized the seriousness of the problem at this moment, and explained to Leo excitedly.

"Everyone is voluntary! I swear!"

"Voluntary what?" Reid didn't quite understand, and finally couldn't help asking.

Now it's not just Leo who can't help but sigh with his hands on his forehead, even James looks at the little doctor in disbelief.

"Is there something wrong with me?" The cute R Baolai turned his head and looked back at the two of them.

"Oh. It's just SEXYPARTY." Leo explained helplessly.

In fact, the big lion doesn't know why, and he is not willing to tell Reid about it.After all, there is a feeling of leading a bad child.And... Sure enough, Reid's face turned red again.

Leo looked at James again, his hawk-like eyes fixed on him all the time: "Are there only a few of you? Are there others?"

"There are some others I don't know, but some are my classmates. I know these people." Now James is honest and says everything.

"We just opened a SEXPARTY. Please, don't tell anyone else! Don't let my parents and school know! Or I'm dead!" James begged Leo and Reid again to keep it secret.

But Leo still didn't give him a positive reply. Reid felt that the lion had something to ask.

"Have you been to NEWYORK three days ago?" Sure enough, Leo pressed on every step of the way.

"No, it should be only Lisa and Anna who went. I heard that too."

"Why doesn't anyone know they went to New York?" Reid cuts in on their conversation.

"Oh, please, Agent!" James covered his eyes helplessly, unable to bear the fact that there was an obedient card in the BAU in front of him! : "Any lie can do it. They said they went camping with Alice and attended a book club for some reason. Those two bitches always acted like good students and classy outside... oh! What a beautiful girl Wai Xiu Huizhong. But in fact, who knows if they will go to another party! I really don’t know what they are doing! I swear!” The death of someone he knew irritated him.

Alice, this name made Reid and Leo stunned, can't it be such a coincidence?

Reid put down the black tea he had been holding, quickly called up the picture on his phone, and handed it to James: "Look, is this Alice?"

"Alice, yes." James.Li confirmed the other party's identity with just one glance.He seemed a little nervous: "Did something happen again? Is there any problem?" This high school student seemed to be about to break down.

"Alice.Robort, her parents reported her missing to the police the day before yesterday." Leo replied coldly.

"Has Alice ever participated in your PARTY? According to your knowledge, will she participate in such a PARTY?" Reid asked softly, trying to calm James' emotions.

Fortunately, this boy was much stronger than Reid imagined, he quickly calmed down, but the anxiety still flashed in his eyes.

"No, Alice didn't show up in our PARTY anyway. I don't know about the others. She lives on Foley Street at the west end of the town and goes to Robin Middle School. We are not very familiar with each other. Only in the club I met at the exchange meeting. I know Alice and Lisa have a good relationship." There was disgust in James' eyes when Lisa was mentioned, and he didn't seem to want to hide it.

"They probably met at the club exchange meeting." Finally, James thought for a while and added: "I think Alice is a good girl, she probably won't..."

"Are you sure she's missing?" James had a painful expression on his face: "Could it be a mistake..." He couldn't continue.

Reid and Leo exchanged glances - if they were not mistaken, James seemed to have a different kind of affection for Alice.Listen to what he called Lisa and Anna before: bitch.But James always called Alice by name, and there was a kind of strange maintenance, for example, thinking that Alice would not participate in such chaotic activities as sexparty.And he showed dissatisfaction with the relationship between Lisa and Alice...

"Do you like Alice?" Reid stuffed the black tea into James' hands, helped him stabilize his mood, and asked cautiously.

"Oh!" James exclaimed, his eyes quickly filled with tears: "I like her! Of course I like her! Even if she gets mixed up with Lisa's asshole, I still like her!"

Reid patted James on the shoulder tenderly as a sign of comfort.

But Leo still asked coldly: "Why do you hate Lisa so much? Didn't you sleep with her too?"

The little doctor glared at the unsympathetic Leo, but he didn't interrupt him—he was curious too!

James' expression turned to hate, real hate - that's hard to see on a teenager's face.

"It's hard not to hate Lisa! I drank too much at the party that day, and I was so confused...it was nothing." James seemed to be suppressing his emotions.

"It turned out that the next day I found out that Lisa did it on purpose. She drugged me! The purpose was to separate Alice and me! She told Alice everything! Originally, Alice had a crush on me..." James growled .

"I don't know what to say!" Leo sneered, "If you have someone you like, you still have to go to that kind of party. How dare you say that you don't know what will happen at the party? When something happens, you can put the blame on others... ...You are really capable." With a few words, Leo lowered his head with his face blushing as James said.

Reid originally had some sympathy for James, but after hearing what Leo said, he felt that it was true.Really sharp! Reid thought.At the same time, I felt that my hand on James' shoulder was a bit awkward, and I didn't want to let it go, and I didn't take it back.

In the end, Reid still chose a skill that he was not good at but lacked in frequent use recently - to change the topic.

"I think, you need to provide a list. A list of all the people you know who have participated in the rave party, and the location of each party." Reid said: "And I think we need to tell the local police department about the curfew."

Just as Reid picked up the phone and was about to call the local police station, Leo hugged him.

Leo wrapped the serious little doctor in his arms: "But we should go to the meeting now!"

The big lion was delighted to see that little face turned pink, and thought to himself, this little doctor is much more likable than James.

"Oh! JJ we all love you, our genius liaison." Emily was freezing, her brows covered with hoarfrost - now beads of water.

When Leo and Reid were about to drive to the police conference room for a meeting, they were told that JJ had borrowed a conference room at the Montbat Hotel with her magical social skills.And it was quickly transformed into the office that BAU used to.This made the whole group want to bow down at the queen's knees and ask for caresses. Everyone in BAU is very satisfied - avoiding staying in the drafty police station for meetings or investigating cases all night in the cold snowy night.

Reid has passed the list and location provided by James.Li to Garcia, the queen of technology, and asked her to help compare the common points in the list, and of course the potential victim groups.

Leo and Reid told bigdad Rossi about the conversation with James.Li, the clues they got, and their own thoughts.

"It does sound like some sort of biased behavior by a religious apologist. I'm actually thinking in that direction too." Rossi frowned.

"But you don't feel right? Why?" Unlike Reid, who is completely rational, Rossi, an Italian man, always retains a bit of humanism, which allows him to understand Leo's feelings to a greater extent.Sometimes a good detective has a good sense of a killer's intentions.This is quite close to BAU's psychological profile.That's one of the reasons why Rossi agreed to let Leo come to BAU in the first place.

"Yes." Leo said concisely.

"Something's wrong. We can't define the incident as religious punishment because of those victims. If that's the case, the appearance of McBlond hair or whatever doesn't make sense. And, at least I don't know that there is death in religious punishment." on tuberculosis."

Reid also frowned. Indeed, the Catholic way of punishing infidelity is usually something like "Pear of Pain".This discussion of the murderer's intentions can only come to an end.Serial killers make sense of everything they pick on their targets.

In addition, Petter's death made everyone in the BAU very mindful.Although the case has been closed by suicide, but if it has nothing to do with the case at hand, he would not believe it even if he killed Rossi!Come to think of it, Petter committed suicide just now when he thought that Petter knew something and was hiding it!How can there be such a coincidence in the world!

"James said that Petter has been acting weird recently, even a student as old as James can see it." Reid said to Rossi. "And he also said that Petter is not a nice person either!"

"Before Petter died, we met a group of students in a small restaurant. They were talking about what Petter seemed to be going to expose." Leo also described to Rossi, "Then Petter died. Isn't it strange?" Leo frowned Wrinkled, looking a little harsh.

"It doesn't sound like suicide! It's like being silenced first." Rossi really felt the same way as them.

However, the forensic examiner at the local police station proved that the death was indeed a suicide...and, what extraordinary things did Petter want to expose before his death?

"If Petter really committed suicide, don't you think something is missing if you contact those students in the restaurant?" Reid tilted his head and looked at Leo and Rossi, his big eyes flickering.

"Suicide note!" Leo and Rossi blurted out.

The author has something to say:
