The next morning, everyone went out to patrol the streets in pairs. Emily and Danny, Hotchner and Joyner, Hannah and Jiejie, Jack and Rosie, and BAU newcomer Lu C. Elvis and Danny's female partner Jenny became temporary partners.

Basically, a local or half-local who is familiar with the surrounding situation is paired with another partner who is relatively unfamiliar. Of course, strictly speaking, Rosie has lived in New York much longer than Jack.

But who can make someone seem to be a bit unfavorable whether he is partnered with Hannah or Jie Jie? In addition, Rosie is barely half a public figure. If the other party is really coming for BAU, Jack will at least make up for it. The weakest link among them.

In fact, Jack's worries are still coming. Jiejie will not go back to Los Angeles for the time being. When picking up people at the airport two days ago, Jack discovered that the BAU people had a lot of luggage this time.

When the BAU went out in the past, Jack usually had the most luggage, because various guns, especially sniper rifles, needed special gun cases to store them, which took up a lot of space.

The rest of the team members usually only carry a travel bag with emergency spare clothes and spare guns. Red and Rosie will bring a few more books, while Emily and Jiejie's bags will be slightly larger.

Because women need to pay more attention to their image and have more clothes, they sometimes use a suitcase instead of a travel bag, but whether it is a suitcase or a bag, everyone calls it an emergency bag.

The BAU also brought some firearms this time. Newcomer Luke Elvis was very skilled and was also a weapons expert. He replaced Jack as the force in charge of the group, but the amount of luggage was obviously over the limit, more than when Jack was there. one third.

Then most of the luggage was sent to a certain penthouse apartment, because these belonged to Jiejie, not emergency kits, but belongings.

According to Hotchner's arrangement, after the end of this case, Jiejie was officially seconded to the New York office, or to be more precise, seconded to Jack's Most Wanted Fugitive Team.

Therefore, the dormitory on the second floor of the new office that someone had renovated in a hurry was about to be put into use. Originally, it was okay for two women and one man to live in the same apartment, but the relationship between the three parties was not simple.

In her words, it was a torment every time she stayed behind and anxiously waited for the disturbing news from the front, especially when she heard that someone was attacked or even injured. Her heart was broken. This time she came to New York That was Garcia's first try.

"Based on the profiling, they should try to have further contact with us, or provoke us."

Jack shrugged and said nothing about it. He didn't even want to participate in office politics now, let alone political issues in a broad sense.

Garcia volunteered to take over part of Jiejie's work. With everyone's encouragement, this lovely fat girl finally no longer contented herself with sitting in the office, but wanted to go out in the field with the group.

"This does not match the profile." Rossi looked confused and subconsciously trimmed his hair. His thick black hair would make those old guys his age envious to death.

"We haven't even found the murderer yet, and the two parties are quarreling over the death penalty in the newspapers." Rossi sighed, crumpled the newspaper in his hand and threw it into the trash can.

John Muhammad in the 'DC Sniper' case tried to extort a $100 million bank card from the police after leaving behind the 'Death' tarot card. They knew they had no chance of actually using the money in it and just used it to taunt the police. .

In the future, Jiejie's work will be divided into two. Garcia will be responsible for sorting out cases from various places, selecting them, and finally handing them over to the BAU for processing, while Hotchner will be responsible for the "diplomat" part.

"So you didn't find anything left by the murderer at the scene yesterday?" Rossi looked at the bustling crowd on the street and took the initiative to change the subject.

After contacting the police, the 'Son of Sam' wrote to the media, concocting a horrifying story depicting himself as the victim of a demonic drive to kill.

Jack followed his train of thought and continued, "Yes, it stands to reason that the other party's contact should escalate. They are trying to create panic and satisfy their own psychological needs.

This question made Jack frown, "Nothing was found, which is strange. I thought the other party would at least leave us a small note or something."

This is also the origin of the nickname 'Son of Sam'. In fact, the police later discovered that the Sam who was said to be possessed by the devil was actually his neighbor's dog. "

Rossi looked at the street in a daze and murmured, "Our suspects are extremely organized. They always seem to pick the busiest time of the day to attack, but in fact they will survey the scene in advance. , planning an escape route.

They left a death card at the scene, seemingly wanting to create panic, but they did not take the initiative to contact the media. This is more like a personal grudge? "

"A personal grudge against us?" It's not that Jack hasn't considered this issue, but he has done a lot of preventive work to guard against this kind of thing.

Even if there is a plot killing, it must be logical. There is no reason for the other party not to investigate the situation of the BAU team before taking action. Even if there is a traitor who cooperates to provide system permissions, it is impossible to completely bypass the traps set by Justin.

However, his analysis reminded Jack, "Do you think it's possible that the other party came to the FBI's New York office?"

Rosie raised her eyebrows, "How do you say that?"

Jack bought two glasses of freshly squeezed orange juice on the roadside and handed one to Rosie. The two of them chatted while walking, "A few days ago, what did you think of first when you received this case?"

"'Son of Sam,'" Rossi answered.

"What did we think of when the murderer left the 'Death' tarot card at the scene?" Jack continued to ask.

"'DC Sniper'." Rossi seemed to understand what he meant.

"They are creating a series of connection lines, trying to attract our attention, but is it possible? We are thinking too much. When it comes to hunting serial killers, the first thing we think of is the BAU team, but in the eyes of outsiders , the first one that should come to mind is the FBI.”

Rossi suddenly realized, "That's why they launched attacks for two consecutive days after the FBI's press conference announcing its involvement. Damn it, Dana's plan to mobilize surrounding FBI field agents to come to New York should also be part of their plan."

Jack patted the old guy on the shoulder to calm him down, "It shouldn't be that simple. The agents are now fully armed and distributed on the streets, and they are also scattered everywhere during the night. It shouldn't be a collective attack on the field agents. Our Jigsaw puzzle It’s almost complete, but the last piece is missing.”

"Are the recent cases in your New York office related to organized gangs or terrorists?" Rossi took out his mobile phone and prepared to make a call.

"No matter what, I want to inform Dana to contact DHS (Department of Homeland Security), NSA (National Security Agency) and CIA to screen for recent domestic terrorist attack threats."

Jack frowned and thought for a long time. He never thought that any recent cases he had handled were related to terrorist organizations. There were indeed rumors that Anthony Vargas's Durange drug cartel had financial transactions with some local terrorist organizations.

But this guy was transferred to Colorado some time ago, which is known as the highest security prison in the United States, because previous NSA intelligence showed that the Durange drug cartel had nearly 10 million US dollars in funds missing.

Because they are worried that these guys will repeat their old tricks and continue to make bomb threats in New York, this case has been officially submitted to the DOJ (Department of Justice), the superior department of the FBI.

So in theory, just threatening the FBI is useless. Jack temporarily rejected this speculation.

Now that all FBI agents are on the streets, what will the other side do next? Just as Jack was repeatedly speculating on the other party's motives, Garcia's call came from the wireless headset.

"Jack, are you there? The murderer showed up again. He just shot a woman in front of an ATM at the intersection of Broadway Avenue and 16th Street. He ran east and is now on 16th Street."

Jack grabbed Rosie and rushed towards the Dodge Hellcat parked on the side of the road, "Who's around there?"

"It's Detectives Emily and Regan. The murderer's escape direction happened to be towards them!" Garcia's anxious voice even contained a cry.

"I'll be there in five minutes!" Jack sounded the siren and stepped on the accelerator to the floor without waiting for Rosie to fasten her seat belt. The tires screamed and rubbed against the ground, causing a burst of smoke.
