CM The future I see without you

"There's only fourteen students here," Reid said to Jacques, who was standing outside in the shade of a tree, from the small room at the back of the barn.

"Where's the old lady?" Jacques asked with narrowed eyes.

"Not here." Reid replied with his hands on his hips. He was standing under the shade of a tree leaning against Jacques. Pulled out a pair of sunglasses and handed it to Jacques.

Jacques shook his head. He turned his head and watched the police officers in the distance leading the rescued children towards the direction of the police cars and ambulances. They were obviously frightened, and they either cried silently or bowed their heads. The head was silent, and the only sound in the empty valley was the roar of cars and the barking of police dogs."I'll go see them," he said.

Before Reid could reply, he walked away on his own. Reid sighed, put the sunglasses back in his bag, turned around and walked towards JJ. She and Morgan were investigating the school bus left by the robbers. found something.

The rest of the children who were robbed didn't suffer any injuries, they were just terrified, took a rest in the car, and after a simple inspection, they were picked up by the police in twos and threes to school.When Jacques walked there, there was only a girl in a maroon cardigan sitting on a simple shrinking chair, holding a bottle of mineral water in both hands, with her head down, wondering what she was thinking.

"Hi." Jacques walked to her side and greeted her softly.

The girl raised her head slightly, she squinted her eyes, and only saw a handsome man with his back facing the golden sun smiling gently at her, even though she was still a little apprehensive in her heart, she still shyly responded to the youth.

Jacques reached out and brought a chair from the side, sat beside her, and said, "I'm Jacquessauniere, you can also call me Jacob, I'm the FBI, and I'm here to help you."

"Jacques? Are you French?" The girl couldn't help approaching the young man, blinking her eyes, and asked timidly.

"No, I am of Chinese-French mixed race, and my mother is French." Jacques replied with a smile, and he asked, "What about you? What's your name?"

"Alice."

"Very well, Alice." Jacques nodded approvingly as if encouraging, and he asked softly, "Can you tell me what happened on the school bus?"

The girl seemed to be taken aback, she retracted again, pursed her lips, and shook her head.

Jacques thought for a while, then slowly said: "Alice, you still have ten classmates in their hands, we need your help. More importantly, you are safe, look, I am here, I will Protect yours. Don't be afraid, okay?"

Alice stared blankly at the young man's hands stretched out to her. There were thick calluses and some small scars on the white palms, but they gave people a strong sense of security.She looked timidly at those blue eyes that encouraged her tenderness, held her breath, and asked, "I, can I hold your hand?"

"Oh, oh, of course." Jacques smiled, and reached out to hold the girl's weak and slender hand, using a little force to make her feel his presence.

"I, oh, no, it's Mr. Webster, he stopped the car suddenly, and then asked the people outside if the car ran out of gas or something..." Alice said softly, "I saw the car door open ..."

Jacques interrupted her at the right time, saying: "Alice, wait a minute, shall we try to close our eyes? This is very important when recalling some important details. Yes, that's it, fine, then, relax, Relax, don't be afraid, I'm here."

The girl closed her eyes obediently, and Jacques saw a drop of tear slipping from the corner of her eye, which stirred up a circle of dust on the ground. Alice tightly held the young man's hand, her muscles tensed, her shoulders receded, and her whole body was in a state of extreme tension. Jacques couldn't help but patted her on the back lightly, and then gradually relaxed.

She was a strong child, and even though she was still a little scared, she never stopped remembering.Listening to Jacques' guidance, she tried to describe in detail the picture that flashed in her mind.

Hotch stood with his hands on his hips, quietly watching Jacques comfort the girl in a soft voice, he thought for a while, then turned to Rossi who was standing beside him and said, "I think something is wrong, if it is a child trafficking gang, No matter how big the risk is, they are unlikely to keep one person, let alone more than half of the children."

"Or are they just here for the ten students?" Rossi squinted. "Is there anything special about them?"

"Garcia and Kevin looked it up, and they're no different than any other teenage kid," Hotch said. "They post their private information online every day, and anyone with access to the Internet probably knows them all."

"Where's the old lady who oversees the school bus?" Rossi asked.

Hotch shook his head slowly, and said, "JJ and Morgan found a large puddle of blood in the first row of the car, such a large amount of blood loss is estimated..."

Rossi sighed and said, "If they don't need a driver, they won't need her soon."

Jacques over there had finished talking, he took off his suit jacket, lightly hit the little girl on both shoulders, and then put his arms around her to escort her to the long-awaited police officer.

"Can't you go back with me?" Alice reluctantly let go of the young man's hand, looked into his blue eyes, and asked.

Jacques shook his head. He stroked the girl's blonde hair and said, "I have to find your classmates. They are still waiting for us."

"Okay then." Alice blinked her red eyes from crying, then lowered her head in frustration, and said, "Then can I keep this? Jacques?"

Jacques looked at the handkerchief tightly held by the girl and said, "Of course, Alice, of course you can keep it. Well, go, your parents are already waiting for you at school."

He watched the girl get into the car, waved at him through the car window, and waited until the police car disappeared at the end of the road before he heaved a sigh of relief and turned to walk towards his teammates.

"So the only clues in hand at the moment are, emmm, two young white men wearing gas masks and holding firearms." JJ leaned on the desk in the headquarters hall, looked at the crowd, and concluded, "It's still too few."

"What about the grouping?" Emily asked, "Alice said that the robbers put them into groups, put on collars, and lined up for selection... What is this for?"

Reid squinted at the children's photos and information projected on the screen, thought for a long time, but couldn't figure out the difference, there was nothing special about them and the children released by the robbers.

"Jacques," Hotch asked the young man drinking from a paper cup, "Aside from these, did Alice mention anything else?"

"No more." Jacques shook his head.

The helpless people froze here for a while.

Rossi went to the window and drew the curtains, blocking out the blinding flashes and loud reporters.The search team and the helicopter didn't find anything, but such a large force caused the media that JJ had just appeased to toss again. They were noisy like a city surrounded by zombies, and they wanted to put their microphones under the noses of parents and police officers. .

Jacques stood up suddenly, he bypassed Emily and Morgan standing in front of him, walked up to Reid, and said to him: "You, do you remember a video game I asked you to help me play? It's you The one who said it was boring?"

Reid was taken aback, he squinted at Jacques, thought for a while, and then said, "Is that the shooting game?"

"Yes! That's the one!" Jacques turned around and said to Rossi, "D□□id, I also asked you to play for me, that is, each person can choose five players and attack each other, whoever has the most people left Whoever wins."

Rossi nodded hesitantly, he still had some impressions in his mind, but it was not particularly clear.

But Reid remembered.He straightened up and explained to the confused crowd, "The name of that game is "God of War", and it is a shooting game. At the beginning of the game, it will ask you to choose a means of transportation, subway, train... Or, or the bus. Each person can choose five members from them, namely the captain, the lieutenant, two soldiers, and one soldier."

"If that's what you're guessing, then," Emily asked, "what about the collar? What about the collar?"

Jacques replied: "That is to prevent the team members from going in the wrong direction. A certain current can be set in it, or, or, something else."

Morgan looked at the smiling faces of the children on the screen and the corresponding information below, and compared the identities that Reid said with them one by one. Jacques was right, those two bastards might really want to play a real version shooting game.

Still, he turned to Jacques, saying, "How does he command these kids? If the collar can be used as a form of punishment, but how do they give orders? By radio?"

"No, it's not." Reid said, "The range of the broadcast voice is too large. The purpose of this game is to kill as many players as possible. They should have brought headphones to the children and gave orders through a radio channel. "

Hotch nodded, and he said to Garcia: "Can this kind of channel be searched? Also, Kevin, look for nearby abandoned factories, wasteland...or other open buildings, if they use the valley field as a transit point , perhaps the range could be much greater than two miles."

"Okay, sir." Garcia and Kevin replied at the same time. After speaking, they looked at each other again, with gentle smiles in their eyes.

Jacques subconsciously looked at Reid, who was standing in a quiet corner, looking down at the Nokia in his hand, frowning.

Hotch said to JJ: "Go check that game company and see if it is possible to find information about their users."

"Okay." JJ nodded and said.

"Then Emily and I will talk to those kids for a while and see what we can find," Morgan said.

"Go ahead," Hotch said.

Rossi glanced at the doctor who was looking nervously at the phone screen, then at Jacques who was staring at Reid's back, and sighed, he put down the coffee cup in his hand, walked to Jacques, gently Patting the back of the young man's right hand, motioning for him to let go of the deformed empty paper cup in his hand, Jacques woke up suddenly, saw that it was Rossi, and then relaxed, forced a smile, and then casually put the paper cup Throw it in the trash.

Rossi asked, "Are you planning to leave?"

"No." Jacques, still looking at Reid, replied to Rossi, "At least not now. I asked Hotch to delay the report time."

"That will happen sooner or later." Rossi's eyes followed the young man's gaze to the doctor. He paused and said, "Have you talked to him?"

Jacques shook his head and said, "Spencer knew that I participated in LSA, but he didn't know that the results came out so quickly. I haven't told him yet."

Rossi looked at him, his eyes were full of worry, he moved his lips, but still didn't say anything, just sighed slightly, turned and left.

Jacques' smile melted away and he remained motionless, staring at Reid as he stared at the screen of his phone.

"We found that extremely low-frequency pulse signal. Garcia hacked their computer and got in touch with a boy named Bill." Kevin adjusted his black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and put a black-and-white satellite map on the table On the ground, he said to everyone, "This is the approximate range where the signal spreads, and we can only find here."

"Thank you, Kevin." Hotch nodded at him, Kevin flinched at Hotch's majestic face, waved his hands quickly, and exited the hall backwards.

"It should be here." Reid pointed to the off-white piece in the corner of the photo, "This piece is all buildings from the 70s, but here, this abandoned paper mill is the most suitable place."

Hotch nodded, Morgan stood up neatly, and walked out the door side by side with Emily. Jacques checked the gun and followed him into the car.

Reid watched Jacques' car disappear quickly into the depths of the night, sighed, and followed Hotch and the others into another Chevrolet.

The capture operation was very successful, thanks to Morgan who drove the car so fast that Jacques and the others saved the group of children when the robbers were about to kill them, but one of the robbers secretly pointed his gun at Morgan At that time, he was shot in the chest by Jacques and closed his eyes forever.

The two robbers are actually biological brothers whose parents have divorced, and former students of Central High School.Just like the profile given by BAU later, the difficult growth environment made the two brothers depend on each other through the game, but some time ago due to excessive violence in the game, they were forced to go offline by the customer service, this incident directly ignited them rage, plotting this live-action shooting game incident.

Jacques watched the stretcher covered with white cloth pass by him, the barrel of the gun behind his waist was as hot as red coals burning his skin, he looked down at his right hand, which was the hand that pressed the trigger , the bullet was fired from the barrel, piercing the robber's ribs and heart.

There was still blood splashing from his chest on his face.

Holding the phone, Reid hurriedly walked up to Jacques with an anxious expression on his face. He looked at those foggy blue eyes and suddenly didn't know how to speak.

Jacques blinked, staring at the Nokia with the screen still on in the doctor's hand, and asked softly, "Are you leaving first?"

Reid nodded in embarrassment, and he said, "Jacques, I'll explain to you when I get back, okay? She's in danger now, and she's waiting for me."

Jacques nodded silently.

Reid breathed a sigh of relief, he stepped forward and gave the young man a hug, then hurriedly followed the car back to the police station.

Emily came over and looked at Jacques worriedly, he asked, "Are you okay?"

"Huh?" Jacques gave him a confused look, thought for a while, and then realized, "Oh, I'm fine."

"you……"

Jacques shook his head slightly, and he said to Rossi, "Emily, leave me alone for a while, okay?"

"Okay." Emilyi said helplessly. He put a gray blanket from the ambulance on Jacques' shoulders, shook his cold hands, and said, "At least wear more, it's still very cold here at night." .”

Jacques tugged at the blanket over his shoulders and nodded with a smile.

After Emily left, he thought about it, took off the blanket on his shoulders and put it back in the ambulance. Jacques couldn't suppress the itching in his throat, coughed a few times, rubbed his ears vigorously, and felt the surrounding police cars The roar and people's loud shouts turned into a buzzing sound in his mind. He frowned in disgust, avoided the crowd, and got into a police car that was about to start.

"FBI, take me to the city." He flashed his ID card and ordered lightly to the young police officer sitting in the driving seat.
