back to the start

"The Douglas family lived here, but the man who died upstairs was not Douglas. I just spoke to him. He was in the state for a business meeting and is on his way back now." The sheriff saw that the three of Morgan had arrived, Get up and go up.

"His wife is gone." Elle looked at the entrance, and then outside the door. "But the car is still there, and so is the wallet. Maybe she was kidnapped by the murderer. Why didn't the murderer kill her?"

"-rape-fornication-is a great sin." Emily picked up the scribed police statement, "but they killed the men and kidnapped the women. Here's the line, 'Look, I'm going to put her in bed sick. , from the Book of Revelation, about Jezebel."

"Jezebel...the most reviled woman in the Bible." Elle shook her head. "Her end is to be torn to pieces by dogs. Does the unknown suspect plan to do the same?"

"Very likely." Emily stood up and was pulled by Morgan, "Don't look back now, we are being recorded by the camera..."

"Yeah..."

"Hey, friends." Gracia's phone rang appropriately after Elle and his party returned to the office. That call found the man, Hankel..."

"Hankel?" Hotch paused with his pen, "Reid…"

"What's the matter?" Elle and Emily circled around, a little doctor who couldn't find her, and a JJ who couldn't see her, all turned their eyes to the upset Hotch.

"He called the police three months ago and claimed that he saw a thief near the victim's house. We thought he saw a suspect. Jessie and the others have already rushed there to inquire..." Hotch packed up his things, "we will go there right away There, they may be in danger.

"So, which personality are we facing now?" JJ raised his gun to aim, and the four of them remained in a stalemate.

"Could it be that you still want to talk to him?" Reid stepped forward to protect JJ behind him, "He's the guy who killed someone and posted the video on the Internet."

"If it is that weak personality who is confronting us, maybe we can persuade him with affection and politeness..." Seeing that the suspect had no intention of making peace at all, Jessie said, "Okay, I'm thinking too much."

Hankel's face twitched, and he suddenly threw the woman beside him to the right, and ran into the cornfield not far away.

Reid quickly chased into the cornfield, and Jessie followed Reid, looking at Reid's back.

JJ stepped forward to support Mrs. Douglas, who had already lost her mind, and comforted softly, "Okay, you're fine." Looking up, the backs of the three were instantly submerged by the tall cornfields, and JJ couldn't see clearly in the dim light The back view of Jessie and Reid.

But she heard something, faintly coming from behind, like the breath of a hungry animal after seeing its prey.

The distraught woman in front of her managed to stabilize her emotions, and suddenly screamed at her back. When JJ turned her head, she saw three ferocious wolf dogs, who at some point got rid of their shackles and rushed towards her.

The color of the dog merged with the night, and only six green eyes could be seen with a greedy green light. JJ didn't have time to think, and fired again and again.

When Jessie ran into the cornfield, Reid and Hankel were nowhere to be seen. With the help of the street lights not far away, she slowly observed the surroundings.There was a rustling sound behind her, and Jessie held the gun tightly in her hand, hiding in the shadows and quietly waiting for the footsteps.

The sound of footsteps stopped ten meters away from Jessie. Jessie held her breath, counted five in her heart, and flashed out from under the cover of corn stalks.

"Don't..." Reid's familiar voice came, "Jessie, it's me, Reid."

Jessie was taken aback, "You didn't find him?"

"He must be very familiar with this area." Reid shook his head and muttered, "If you don't pay attention, you will lose it."

"It's better not to take it lightly..." The moonlight mixed with the dim light of the street lamp hit the cornfield messily, and Jessie watched every suspicious shadow.

"Bang—bang—" There were three consecutive gunshots ahead.

"JJ!" Reid rushed towards the source of the gunshots, and just a few steps away, a black figure turned around and tripped him. Reid was in pain, and when he was about to get up, there was a whistling of bullets on his head.

"Okay..." Jessie's voice trembled, "It's all right."

"You almost shot me in the head..." Reid picked up the dropped gun and stood beside Jessie panting. "What now? Drag him back?"

Jessie breathed a sigh of relief as she watched the flashing lights of the police car not far away. "No, Hotch and the others are here."

While still on the road, Elle heard faint gunshots. Before the car stopped, there was another clear gunshot, and the surroundings fell into dead silence immediately. Elle hurriedly opened the door and jumped out of the car.I saw JJ with a terrified face and Mrs. Douglas who had already been frightened.

"Call an ambulance to Mrs. Douglas," Hotch said to the nearby police station.

JJ's thinking is still in confusion, seeing someone coming, he quickly draws his gun and stands up, "FBI!"

"JJ..." Emily hurriedly signaled the people behind her to put down their guns, "It's me, Emily."

Hearing the familiar voice, JJ put down the gun and froze in place. "Tobias Hankel is the suspect."

Emily nodded, "We already know." She stepped forward and hugged JJ who was trembling slightly, "Are you hurt?"

JJ put away his gun, leaned against Emily's arms, and muttered to himself, "We thought he was just a witness. On the way here, we speculated that he might be a false police report to test the police's reaction time..."

"JJ, where are Reid and Jessie?" Morgan looked around but couldn't see the other two.

"There are three dogs running in the corral...I'm most afraid of dogs...I have to kill them." JJ ignored Morgan's question and said to himself.

"JJ, look at me." Emily patted JJ's shoulder, "Where are they?"

"Them? Hankel confronted us for a while and ran into the cornfield, Reid and Jessie caught up..."

Elle got up and ran towards the back of the house. Morgan looked at JJ, then at Elle, and chased after her.

"How about we go up first?" Reid looked at Hankel who was lying on the ground, "Anyway, he won't die from the gunshot wound for a while. I'm worried about JJ..."

I won't be able to die for a while... Jessie thinks that Reid's conclusion is quite reasonable. "also."

"Spencer..." Morgan's voice came from a distance following the flashlight, "Are you guys here?"

"Here!" Reid waved at Morgan.

Jessie hugged Elle who jumped on her body, "It's okay, it's okay."

Elle still hugged the little doctor's neck, "I heard a few scattered gunshots on the way here, I thought..." She closed her eyes and buried her head in Jessie's arms.

"Ahem..." Morgan tried to change the subject, pointing to Hankel who was lying on the ground and asked Jessie, "Did you shoot?"

Jessie hugged Elle and nodded.

"Nice job..."

"Hey... Reid remembered the roar above his head, "She almost shot me in the head..."

On the plane, JJ fell asleep peacefully in Emily's arms. Emily looked at the sleeping man who was still holding her hand tightly, smiled dotingly, took the jacket that was on the side, and covered JJ.Under the cover of the coat, he put her hand in his own.

Morgan sat across from Hotch, "Don't take a break?"

Hotch shook his head. "I was thinking of Gideon. This is the first case we've solved since he left."

"He'll be relieved." Morgan looked out the window and sighed.

Elle leaned against Jessie, quietly watching her face in the dim light of the cabin.

"I love you." She buried her head in Jessie's arms, whispering softly.

A group of people returned to the headquarters with a lot of dust, planning to stay up all night to complete the summary of the case in Georgia.

"Agent Greenaway." Someone called Elle from outside the door, "Someone sent you a package."

"Package?" Elle took it suspiciously. "Will someone send me something?"

Despite her doubts, she found a knife and opened the package.After seeing what was inside, his breathing suddenly became disordered.

"What's wrong?" Jessie got up and stood behind Elle, still holding Elle's shoulder, and looked into the box.

A police ID card wrapped in old newspaper lay in a cardboard box.

Jessie pulled Elle into her arms with one hand, unwrapped the newspaper with one hand, and opened the police certificate.

The man in the photo has clear eyes and high spirits. Jessie looks aside, and the name column reads: Robert Greenaway

"This is my father's police officer's ID." Elle calmed down, "That newspaper was from my hometown on the day my father died in the line of duty."

Only Elle's name was written on the package, without any sender's information, Reid asked the guard on duty, "Can you describe the appearance of the person who delivered this package?"

The guard shook his head, "It took only a short while to get back from the shift, and it was put there."

"Turn on the monitoring." Hotch came down from upstairs and ordered concisely.

Gracia, who had just come out of the office, was pushed into the computer room by Morgan again, "Turn on the surveillance. Someone sent Elle a mysterious package."

"Inside?" Gracia recalled Gidoen's head incident...

"Something about her father who died in the line of duty." Morgan whispered, "I don't know..."

Gracia nodded, fingertips began to tap the keyboard rapidly.

"I don't know what the case that made my father sacrifice. I was only 6 years old at the time. I just remember that I kept blaming him for spending too little time with me..."

"Elle..." JJ reassured, "We'll help you find the guy behind the scenes."

"We don't even know if this guy is an enemy or a friend..."

"I think it's more likely to be the enemy..." Emily thought about it, "He sent her father's belongings back to her in this way after more than 20 years, and it was mostly provocative and showing off."

"Jessie," Hotch said, "you and Elle go home and keep her safe."

"Actually, I'm fine..." Elle retorted weakly.

"I don't think so." Hotch glanced at Elle's pale face. "You need rest."
