The coffee man who was thinking immediately noticed something was wrong here.

"Damn it!" He ignored the trees, and hurriedly prepared to run over to help the strong man catch Anne.

However, after only taking a few steps, the coffee man suddenly felt as if a giant hammer hit his back suddenly, and he fell face down heavily on the ground in a whirl.

And just where he was standing, Fred who appeared out of nowhere was holding a stun gun and standing still with a smile.

"You?!" The coffee man, who hadn't passed out, resisted the unstoppable convulsions all over his body, and tried his best to turn his face slightly. He finally saw Fred and recognized him immediately.

The coffee man wanted to yell, but he could only hear the sound of "ho ho" stirring in his throat like a dying beast, but he couldn't utter a single word.

"Thank you for taking care of Annie. This little gift is not a tribute." While searching the coffee man's pocket for the phone, Fred adjusted the voltage of the stun gun to the peak value, looking at the coffee man's discolored face, Fred, smiling like sunshine, slowly put the stun gun against the coffee man's chest, and then pulled the trigger...

Annie's feet were still numb due to sitting for a long time, which restricted her speed of escape. However, she cleverly used the dense trees beside the path to drill back and forth in the gap between them, which made her run away. The tall and burly man was very helpless.

Finally, the panting strong man was no longer willing to continue such a hide-and-seek game. He stopped and took out a pistol from his holster.

"Bang!" Accompanied by the muffled gunshot, a big hole appeared in the tree trunk not far in front of Annie, and the splashed sawdust scattered like this, which shocked Annie greatly.

"Bang! Bang!" Before Annie could recover from the first gunshot, the brawny man immediately pulled the trigger again. Countless sawdust splashed on the trees around Annie, scaring Annie to scream. Shouting, he crouched on the ground leaning against the tree trunk with his head in his arms, not knowing what to do.

Suddenly, a howl like the mournful cry of a wild animal rose out of thin air, and the continuous gunshots immediately followed and stopped abruptly.

After a long time, Anne tentatively cast her eyes between her arms, and looked forward cautiously: Fred was standing in front of her with a smile, looking at her tenderly.

"Who are you?" Looking at the strong man lying on the ground in a pool of blood, Annie still couldn't believe everything in front of her eyes and the man in front of her.

"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that I can only say sorry for what will happen next." Fred slowly approached Anne step by step.

But for some reason, looking at this strange man in front of her, Annie couldn't take a single step, even though the man didn't have any weapons in his hand, and even though the way to escape was just a few steps away from her side... …

Lena quietly helped Morgan bandage the wound on her arm, and she seemed to have completely lost the ability or motivation to distinguish between the ordinary reality and the reality in front of her after a series of very human-like field experiences.

Looking at the villa not far away that had turned into a pile of rubble, for the first time, Reina had an unreal feeling about her environment.

At this moment, an email message on the IPAD interrupted her thoughts. She took the IPAD and found that Garcia had already sent the DNA re-examination results she requested.

Looking at the results of the re-examination, Leina's thoughts, which were almost at a standstill, suddenly entered a state of galloping at high speed like a galloping horse.

Hodge is on the phone with Garcia: "Is there any result in the tracking of the source of the camera signal?"

Garcia: "Because the signal passes through anonymous proxy servers on all continents of the world and undergoes multiple encryptions, it will take me some time, but I am already doing my best to follow up."

Morgan: "Baby, what about the car that kidnapped Annie or the car that Rhett mentioned earlier?"

"Sorry, Mr. Paladin, the checkpoint didn't give any happy clues. By the way," Garcia paused, "Speaking of which, the owner of the unlucky Mercedes has confirmed , are the only remaining two veterans of Europa, Diego Diamandis and Francisco Tias, and the unidentified armed men who sniped you at the explosion point have been determined to be the private troops of these two veterans. "

Hodge: "Is the cause of the explosion determined?"

Garcia: "It is a temperature-controlled car bomb. It is installed in the trunk of a car. It will explode immediately when the heat of the engine reaches a predetermined value."

*: "It seems that this Tess Bird is desperate for her own purposes."

Rossi was very annoyed: "It seems that all our clues have been broken?"

Reid: "Maybe we can start with the middlemen or big drug dealers who trade with them, or look for clues from the black market for weapons, so we won't be so clueless."

"I think I might know something," Reina said suddenly.

"Oh, my little genius, did the DNA retest result really ignite your wisdom volcano?" Reina's initiative made Garcia a little excited.

"Yes, of course, thanks to Miss Garcia for your support." Reina seemed to have a plan in mind.

"DNA re-examination?" Everyone who didn't know what was going on was at a loss.

"It's like this, because when I was researching Fred's old case, I always had a question that I couldn't solve. So, not long ago, I asked Miss Garcia to do me a favor by listing all the known victims of Fred's old case. DNA was retested a second time," Reina explained.

"What do you mean?" Rhett seemed to understand immediately.

"That's right, I suspect that Fred's purpose of committing the crime was not as written in the file back then, but simply to vent his anger or pass on his own experience to gain satisfaction." Lena cleared her throat and continued He continued, "Generally speaking, the first victim is of great significance to a serial murderer, but in Fred's old case, his modus operandi broke this routine. His modus operandi started from The second victim was fixed and kept. However, I have been guessing that this may not be an extremely unique case, what if it is just a cover-up by Fred?"

Rossi: "You mean, everything Fred did was planned?"

Reina responded affirmatively: "That's right, I think that everything he did in the case was to cover up his real purpose, and this re-examined DNA report just proves my idea."

Reina shared the report from Garcia with everyone.

"This is?!" While looking through the documents, everyone immediately noticed the strangeness of the two DNA reports.

"Everyone must have noticed." Reina continued, "Before he escaped from prison, Sunk Fred provided information on three pairs of victims' mother and child, because the time when he learned the information was too far away from the time of the crime. It was a bit too long. When the remains of these victims were discovered, they were already in a state of high decay, so the coroner could only verify the identity of the deceased through DNA tests and dental records. The most critical problem was that what happened in at this time."

Morgan: "Are you referring to routine DNA testing where someone surreptitiously substituted DNA samples?"

"No, I mean, DNA injection modification." Reina's bold deduction surprised everyone.

Reid: "DNA injection modification refers to the use of obtained DNA samples for clonal proliferation, and then re-injection into the individual who wants to modify the DNA, so as to achieve the purpose of confusing the DNA test."

* Some couldn't believe it: "This, is it possible to do it?"

Rossi: "It's almost like a scene from a movie or TV show."

Reid: "Actually, in theory, there is nothing difficult about this. As long as you have a certain level of knowledge and technology in biology or genetics, there is no problem in completing this. Of course, all of this is just a theoretical basis , After all, it should be absolutely impossible to completely modify someone's DNA to avoid DNA testing."

Morgan: "But it seems that Sunk Fred has done it, and it has been done perfectly, and it has kept us in the dark for 16 years."

Reid: "He was able to achieve this mainly because our ordinary DNA test will only test the specific 13 characteristic sequences in the DNA sequence. If the two DNA samples match, it will determine that the two samples They were collected from the same natural organism. And Senk Fred just took advantage of this loophole to stage this deceitful drama.”

*Still in doubt: "What about dental records?"

Reina: "According to the data, Senk Fred followed the victim for a long time before he kidnapped the victim, and he is also proficient in electronic technology while studying in medical school, so he should be able to easily obtain the victim Dentist's records, and copying of the victim's teeth."

Garcia: "It is indeed the case. In the short 19 years of personal information of Senke Fred, it is full of every honor he has won in various aspects since he was a child: gold medal in physics Olympic, silver medal in physiology Olympic, software engineer qualification , Master of Electronic Engineering... This list is simply ridiculously long. I have started to read it since just now, but until now, I have only read half of it."
