A born FBI

4 Role confusion

The days at BAU were very different from Irene's days in Russia before. When the BAU case was almost uninterrupted, more than half a year had passed, and Irene was too busy to think about anything else.

This case happened in Hollywood.

The victims were all Hollywood celebrities, either actors or screenwriters, who were killed in various movie roles.

On the way to the scene, Reid suddenly asked a question in the driver's seat.

"Irene."

"Hmm" Irene looked up and saw Reid's eyes reflected in the mirror: soft, and seemed a little caring.

He finally didn't mind her ruining Thomas Merton anymore.

"I've had times when I was afraid of my own thoughts," Reid said, "I know the feeling of being lost, uh..." Reid often got stuck talking to her, and Irene just wondered if he still cared about the disrespect he had for her before. friendly.

"Spencer, I said, I really don't mind what happened before." Irene said, "So you can talk less nervously."

Hearing this, Reid couldn't help laughing: "I'm not nervous, Irene, after all, I'm not the age I was ten years ago. I'm just... If you need someone to talk to, you can talk to me, um"

"Thank you, Spencer." Irene smiled, "Actually, I'm used to it. Ten years can make people get used to many things."

That day, he should have heard her talk with Rossi.

JJ and Derek were right, Spencer was a nice guy.

So considerate and so kind.

Irene and Reid got out of the car and began to survey the scene.

"Spencer!" With a charming voice, Irene turned around and saw a very attractive woman.

Looking at her outfit, Irene concluded: Hollywood actress.

"Lila?!" Reid was surprised to see her again.

"I heard that BAU is here to investigate the case, so I came to see if I might run into you again."

Lila is different from ten years ago, now she is a popular actress in Hollywood.

"How do you do" Reid asked.

"Betterthanbefore, worsethanbefore." Lila said, "I still regret not chasing you to the FBI."

Hearing this, both Reid and Lila laughed.

"The current look suits you very well." Reid said, "That's my colleague—AgentIrene Astrid, who is one year younger than me back then."

Lila turned her head to look at Irene, who was concentrating on collecting evidence. Irene felt the gaze, gave the things in her hands to other personnel, got up and walked towards Reid.

"Hi!" Irene greeted Lila with a smile, "Youarestunning."

"You are more beautiful." Lila looked at Irene almost obsessively, "You really look more Spencer Reid than Spencer Reid back then!"

"I think you're complimenting me." Irene teased gracefully.

"Agent Astrid!"

"I'll go and have a look." Irene said to Lila.

"I'll take a look too." Reid said, "After all, it's working time."

"Tonight, let's have a meal together." Lila suggested.

"Tonight?" Reid frowned. "I may not have time."

"Don't worry. That Agent Astrid is great, you will definitely have time. Bring her with you when the time comes." Lila put on her sunglasses, "I have put the time and place in your pocket."

Reid came to Irene's side.

"Er... I didn't expect Lila to come."

"Spencer" Irene looked at him with a smile, "I don't mind if Hotch isn't here anyway."

Hearing this, Reid stroked his hair blankly.

"Besides, Hollywood is actually very small," Irene added, "maybe when you have dinner with Lila at night, you will have unexpected gains."

"You know..." Reid was a little dazed.

"Know that she asked you out for dinner?" Irene raised her eyebrows playfully, "Spencer, I've been an undercover agent in Russia for eight years. If I didn't even notice that she stuffed the note in your pocket, I wouldn't know that I would throw it in Russia." How many lives have been lost."

"She also asked you out." Reid looked at Irene and said, "Did you think of that?"

Irene stopped what she was doing and stared blankly at Reid.

"Why is she still"

Reid looked at Irene's dumbfounded look, and couldn't help but walk to the other side with the corner of his mouth twitching.

Morgan is right: Irene's cuteness is only hidden during the investigation, and she can't hide it on weekdays.

Back at the California Police Department, everyone shared their achievements with each other.

"Irene and I both think that Unsub is a member of the entertainment industry." Reid's simple words made Morgan and others raise their eyebrows in surprise.

Irene and me? ?

JJ looked at Hotch and Morgan and smiled, and the latter two smiled back: the little doctor finally realized how similar Irene was to him.

Apparently, Reid, who has low EQ, didn’t realize that his language had already been thoroughly profiled by his colleagues with occupational diseases, but Irene, who didn’t know what EQ was at all or never thought of expressing her EQ, obviously didn’t notice Reid’s use words.

"The four victims were all killed in their own homes, and there was no sign of forced entry. On the contrary, there were red wine and coffee on the table, and the music played was very enthusiastic and relaxed. It can be seen that Unsub is not only a person in the entertainment industry, And knew the victim very well."

"The four victims are all big names in Hollywood, and their works are very marketable, but it can still be seen from the remains of the scene that they treated guests with respect. If it weren't for seniors in the entertainment industry with aloof status, they would not have treated them so respectfully." Treat him," Reid added, posting the photo on the board.

"Then Reid, you can find something more tonight's dinner with Lila." Hotch still had that serious face.

Reid looked at Irene in surprise, and Irene motioned him to read the newspaper on the table.

The meeting between him and Lila was photographed by a reporter, and the newspaper had been published in California.

Who said it?No more than four hours of confidentiality on a Hollywood star date!

Reid sighed secretly.

Needless to say, the group of profiling elites knew from Lila's physical performance that she was asking him out for dinner.

"Irene will come with me too," Reid said.

Morgan turned around with an extremely surprised face.

"Kid, when did you treat Irene?"

"Lila invited Irene too," Reid said.

"I think she won't mind if I don't go." Irene looked up from the file. "Spencer, Rossi said you need to develop a new relationship."

"Girl, please don't tell me." Rossi walked in with his forehead stroked.

"Sorry, Rossi!" Irene remembered something, lowered her head and continued to read the file.

"You'regonnagowithme." That's all Reid left behind.

JJ and everyone saw their jaws drop: Dr. Ruan has become domineering? ? ? ?Could it be that encountering a softer Irene inspired masculinity?

When did you completely let go of your negative feelings towards Irene?

Spencer couldn't tell either.

Maybe it was that night, he accidentally discovered that Irene couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and stood in a daze on the balcony.

Irene wasn't feeling sad, he knew it.But Irene's back looked so lonely in the night, so lonely that no one would think that it was the figure of a young girl.

The usual Irene is always smiling, and always has a soft demeanor, like the fountain flame case, the escaped victim hugged her and refused to let go, she promised the poor boy that she would stay with him until his parents came to pick him up he.But the boy's parents came, and the boy still refused to let go of Irene. Irene, who hadn't had a good rest for three days, had an unconcealable tiredness on her face. She still stopped Morgan, who was about to get mad, and told the boy gently that she would come to see him tomorrow. , now that his parents are here, he will be safe.

Later, the teenager finally recovered after psychotherapy, and he stalked and pursued Irene unsuccessfully, so he asked for a photo of Irene before leaving silently.

Irene knew that the boy was following her quietly, but she begged Morgan not to educate the boy, and he would stop following after a while.

Sure enough, the teenager didn't follow her after a week.

Irene smiled and said: Derek, obviously you are also very clear, it is just a manifestation of PTSD, time passes, his psychological barrier is overcome, and it is nothing.

Therefore, Morgan sometimes commented that Irene is an easy-going guy who has no principles when he gets angry.

Irene's bag didn't contain anything that a girl should have, ID, mobile phone, books, apartment keys were all, not even a wallet.

Spencer felt that it might be habit for a man not to carry a wallet, but it was a problem for a woman not to carry a wallet.

Irene never carried a wallet, and later he found that Irene never looked at the card slots, especially the card wallets with photo slots, without even looking at them.

With no social habits, no social network accounts, Spencer knew she didn't even have a picture of herself.

Because when the boy asked her for a photo, he saw a complex expression on Irene's face that seemed to pass for a moment, and then took a photo of the ID to the boy.

At that time, the teenager asked 'do you have any photos of your life', but Irene still had a very gentle tone.

I do not like taking pictures.

So Spencer realized a little bit the worry of the BAU family when they saw him who was not sociable, and he began to stay with Irene unintentionally or intentionally: when investigating the case, he tried to move his point of view closer to Irene, and Hotch always took them into consideration arranged together.

Spencer didn't know if Irene felt it, maybe she felt it, but she was used to the easy way and didn't say it.

"Spence!" JJ waved his hand in front of Reid's eyes for a long time, and finally had to speak out to bring Reid's thoughts back.

"JJ." Reid picked up his coffee and took a sip, "What's wrong?"

"It's time for me to ask you what's wrong." JJ sat down next to Reid.

"JJ." Reid asked, "Did you guys figure it out?"

"What did you find?" JJ asked, "Is Irene actually another Spencer Reid? Or has your attitude towards her changed from being unkind to the original visitor to caring everywhere now?"

"JJ, what are some reasons why a pretty girl doesn't like being photographed?" Reid asked.

"Well, I'm going to ask Irene." JJ patted Reid on the shoulder, "Spence, it's right to look forward, and Maeve will be happy for you."

Reid is silent: In fact, he doesn't know if this is love. The more he knows about Irene, the more sad information he sees about Irene-but in fact, Irene is a cute little girl, isn't she?Every time he sees a different Irene than when he was working, it's like seeing himself ten years ago.

Irene never said that she is a genius in terms of IQ, but there is no doubt that Irene cannot not be a genius, but unlike him, his genius can be digitized, while Irene's genius can only be obtained through getting along with each other. was discovered.

"Irene" Reid came to Irene, "It's time for us to go."

"Spencer, do you really want to take me there?" Irene was a little dazed.

"You can find out what I can't." Reid said with all his might.

Sure enough, Irene thought about it, picked up her bag and prepared to leave.

"Wait." Reid handed her a bag, "We'll change into it before we go. Lila's French restaurant won't let us in with clothes like this."

Irene took the bag and changed, not seeing the emotion in Reid's eyes.

"Let's go."

Seeing Irene going straight forward, Reid couldn't help calling her to stop.

"Irene."

"Hmm" Irene stopped and looked at Reid.

Reid took her hand and put it on his arm, and said softly, "Now, weareready."

"Reid finally met a girl who is less emotionally intelligent than him." Morgan, who was peeking from behind with everyone, said leisurely, "I hope Irene can be more dull, so Kid has a higher chance of success."

"I don't think Irene is dull, but that Spence's attitude towards her was too negative. She didn't expect Spence to like her at all - she didn't even think about the liking among colleagues, let alone the liking of men to women. "JJ fully analyzed Irene's psychology.

"That's the good thing about Reid being ten years older—he can take care of himself ten years ago." Hotch always puts the final word brilliantly.

Rossi did not have the humor of the past, and walked to the case analysis board with a worried mood.

Let's settle the case first and then talk to Reid.

Hotch noticed Rossi's actions.

"Dave, you've known Irene before she joined Dus."

"Aaron, let's talk about this later."

Hotch puts a hand on Rossi's shoulder in agreement.

"Spencer." Irene called Reid suddenly, "I..."

Reid turned to look at her with a tender look, and Irene swallowed back what she wanted to say.

"I'm not very good at wearing high heels." She said with some embarrassment.

Reid pursed his lips and smiled, "I found out."

Irene stroked her hair and handed Reid the body armor in the bag: "An agent has to wear body armor during the investigation."

Reid: "We're here for dinner."

"You can only eat when you are safe. And wearing it inside a suit will not affect your charm."

"What about you?" Reid asked.

"I can't wear body armor in a skirt, it will affect the visual appearance." Irene said.

Reid knew that Irene was a model who would not give up until she achieved her goal, so she had no choice but to put on a bulletproof vest and a suit.

Irene walked slowly towards the restaurant, holding Reid's hand.

"I took a closer look at the scene, and Unsub might be a director." Irene told Reid of her discovery.

"Director?" Reid looked at Irene.

"Hmm." Irene nodded solemnly, "The coffee and red wine at each scene are arranged in a certain way, which seems normal, but it is not a common coincidence that the four victims' homes are like that. "

"Coincidences are never common," Reid said.

The two walked into the restaurant hand in hand, and Irene looked around the restaurant intentionally or unintentionally.

"Here, Sweeties." Lila was already waiting for them.

"Hello. Lila." Reid and Irene took their seats.

"Thank you for inviting me, Ms. Lila." Irene said.

"If youareafirendofhis, thenyouareafriendofmine." Lila smiled and took off her shawl, "You know, thisguysavedmylifeandmycareer."

"Yeah, he's capable of that." Irene laughed, reaching for the cup but Lila held it squarely.

"My God." Lila touched Irene's hand, "I wish Iwereamanso I can possess you!"

"Well..." Irene turned to look at Reid, "What if I say you're not the first female who offer that."

Lila smiled, she liked the girl's generosity.

"Lila, what's your take on the latest case?" Reid asked.

"As expected." Lila smiled coquettishly, "I knew you would ask me this."

"Recently I heard that director Efson's work will be put on the big screen, and he is casting around." Lila said, "This time the director seems to be cruel to find the perfect candidate. Just start watching the candidates that get on the list."

"The director's casting method is special." Irene said.

"The most special thing is not this." Lila picked up the red wine, "It is said that after he went to the candidate's house, the candidate died in a strange way. Originally, everyone in this movie was eager to get a chance to play the leading role, but now there is a commotion After such a thing, everyone is a little bit avoiding it.”

"Thank you, Lila." Reid said, "Looks like we're going to invite Director Efson to talk about life."

Irene smiled at Reid.

Halfway through dinner, Lila went to the bathroom once.

When Irene looked down, she saw someone following Lila, so she told Reid to go to the bathroom.

Reid sat alone at the table, looking at the note Lila handed him [she is so cute, she will be snatched away if you don't do it - maybe it's a woman].

Reid couldn't help laughing: Morgan's words seem to be right, Irene's charm is really useful to women.

What interrupted his thoughts was Lila's scream.

"Irene! Lila!" Reid jumped up from his seat and ran towards the bathroom.

Reid saw that Lila was obviously frightened and hid aside, while Irene was fighting hard with each other.

"hiss--"

The hem of Irene's skirt was torn open, and the floor-sweeping long skirt instantly turned into a knee-length skirt.

The other party took advantage of the chaos and ran out.

"Are you all right?" Reid let go of Lila in his arms and walked towards Irene.

Irene smiled and signaled them to rest assured: "Except that JJ's skirt is shortened, there is no loss."

Reid looked at her with a clear look of "so you know that the skirt belongs to JJ", and Irene responded tacitly with a look of "of course I can see that you are not a transvestite".

Lila on the side smiled: It seems that her former mysterious boyfriend will soon get a perfect partner.

When Reid and Irene returned to the police station, Irene's short skirt made everyone look at the client with ambiguous expressions.

"Someone attacked Lila in the restaurant, and Irene went to protect Lila and got into a fight with the attacker, so the dress just..." Reid explained.

"Yes, I can testify." Lila emerged from behind Reid, "Spencer didn't tore Irene's dress."

Irene looked helplessly at the chatting and laughing crowd, and silently changed back into her clothes.

"I have made an appointment with Efson's assistant. Reid, Morgan, and JJ will go talk to Efson tomorrow morning." Hotch said, "Irene, you are responsible for protecting Lila during this time."

Now that someone has shot Lila, that is to say, someone has already paid attention to Lila.

Irene is with Lila at the police station, and Lila always takes every opportunity to tease her.

At noon the next day, Reid and his group came out of Efson's house and called other members.

"That is to say, you think there is nothing wrong with director Efson." Rossi pondered, "but our profile points directly at Efson."

"Maybe someone is deliberately imitating him?" Hotch glanced at Rossi, but Lila suddenly spoke.

"Director Efson is a maverick in the industry and has many fans. It is not surprising that some people imitate him."

Hotch frowned: It seems that the scope of their investigation has to be slightly changed.

"I have an appointment in two hours. If you insist on protecting me, I can only take beauty Irene away."

Lila and Irene left the police station and passed by Morgan and his party who came back.

Seeing the person who came in, Irene frowned.

The woman who came in was Everin Tese, director Efson's assistant, and she had just read her profile.

"Lila, you are also one of Efson's candidates."

"I'm sorry, beauty. I'm afraid I said it. The FBI won't let me go. I will be safe with you. I really believe in your fighting power!" Lila said easily.

Irene shook her head invisibly: actresses in this circle shouldn't trust someone so easily, right?

"Because you're Spencer's friend, and because you're a federal agent, I have blind trust in you." Lila saw through Irene's thoughts.
