two people's agreement

【All the subtleties of life are fixed in the moment of persistence and letting go. ——Henry Ellis]

Another tough case.

Boise, Idaho.

Ten years ago, a 17-year-old boy named Randy Slade broke into North Valley High School armed with a gun and a bomb, killing 14 people, including himself.

Ten years later, during the commemoration week, the same tragedy was repeated.

Principal Doug Givens was bombed to death in his own home last night in a very similar way to Randy's ten years ago.

In the morning, Hodge and Hayley met with Jack's class tutor, returned to the office for their morning paper, and flew to Boise.

When they arrived at the local area, JJ and Reid went to the home of Principal Givens, and the rest of them went to find Randy's 17-year-old brother Brandon.

When Rossi asked him, he found clues. They searched his room and found the death list left by Randy.

At this time, JJ also called and told them that Chelsea Grant, who had survived the alumni just ten years ago, was also killed.

From this, they suspected that Randy had an accomplice back then, and it was this accomplice who committed the case.

They believed the gang would continue.

After posting the profile, Emily spoke with survivors at the scene of the shooting at North Valley High School a decade earlier.

Garcia found the accomplice by analyzing the list and the situation on the campus at that time.

louis.He eventually admitted that he was Randy's accomplice, but denied killing Principal Givens and Chelsea.

Emily also found something wrong from the situation described by Jeffrey, one of the survivors. The mobile phone he described as the detonator in Randy's hand did not match the situation at the scene.

Jeffrey explained that he had misremembered.

Emily believed him and returned to the police station to exchange information with Hodge and the others.At this time, Jeffrey was killed at North Valley High School.

Through the scene, Reid discovered that the murderer suffered from analgesia, a disease that does not feel pain. JJ also found the murderer's way of choosing the victims. They were ten students selected by Principal Givens after the bombing to give speeches and go on talk shows.

The killer was Bob Adams, who was comatose in the bombing a decade earlier and woke up to find that Jeffrey had stolen his story.

This made him very angry.

Like Randy ten years ago, he broke into the restaurant where the alumni held a commemorative event with guns and bombs.

After confronting him, Hodge shot and killed him.

Things come to a happy end, but the scars left by those who died on the hearts of the living will never end, and they will be remembered.

On the second day after returning from Boise, Hodge came to his daughter's grave alone and looked at the name on the tombstone for a long time.

Hopwalk Hochner.

Before leaving, he went to see Dani.

After that time, too many things happened around him. Because of the pressure from above, he was also transferred to Pakistan to lead an expert team. Xi Weier was transferred to Andy Swan's department, JJ was transferred back, and finally Ai was suspended. Millie returns.

Fortunately, they all came back.

The group returned to its former heyday.

For almost two years, Dani has been in a coma for two years.Ever since the inspection found that the micro-electricity of Danni's brain has been active, she seems to be immersed in a dream that she does not want to wake up.

Coward who doesn't want to wake up and face reality, you've slept too long, if you don't wake up, I'll be old.

I don't have the strength to tell you the things I've been keeping silent.

In the hurricane, amidst the ruins, we seek our regrets that can never be remedied.

This time they came to Kansas to investigate a corpse case, which was being hit by a strong hurricane.

While the case was going on, the restless JJ missed Henry who was sick at home. Although Hodge was allowed to leave, but the weather was not good, all the surrounding airports, buses, and trains were all suspended.

JJ is stuck here and can't get out.

With the case solved, Hodge saw her in a corner of the police station, reading Henry a bedtime story.

Maybe this is mom?The same story has long been engraved in their hearts.

Hodge felt a pain in his heart, and that kind of regret grabbed him suddenly.He turned and left, unwilling to see such a happy picture, it would remind him of his undesired daughter.

They were back in Quantico the next afternoon when Hodge got a call.

He questioned the accuracy of the other party's news in surprise, and looked downstairs through the office window. Reed was sitting leisurely on the office chair, looking at the chessboard in front of him.

After hearing the affirmative answer from the other party, he took the car keys and rushed out of the office.

"Reed! Let's go!"

"Huh?" Reid turned his head in surprise.What happened? !

With doubts, Reed picked up the bag beside him, and followed the steps that had already stepped out of the office.

Rosie, JJ, and Emily face each other with fear.

It was rare for Hodge, who hadn't looked so stern recently, to show that expression again.

After hesitating for a moment, Hodge and the others had already arrived at the elevator entrance. They immediately put down what they were doing and followed together.

"Hodge, what happened?!"

"She's awake."

There were only three simple words, but a thunderstorm fell in the hearts of everyone!

Hodge's face was filled with unbelievable joy.

Rossi and the others showed sincerely blessed smiles. Rossi stepped forward and patted Hodge on the shoulder, and Emily gave Reed a hug who was still in a daze.

The elevator is here!Hodge pulled Reed, who was still standing stupidly, and walked in.

"Don't worry about it here, I'll take care of everything." Rossi and Emily watched them leave.

"Thank you!" Hodge nodded gratefully.

The elevator doors closed softly.

"This is really great news for them!" Emily smiled, and she wanted to share the good news with everyone.

Rossi suddenly felt a little worried, "For Reed, this is undoubtedly good news, but Hodge..."

Emily understood immediately what he meant. "I'm sure they can handle this."

"I hope so." Rossi sincerely hoped so.

"I'm going to tell JJ and Garcia the news." Emily ran to Garcia's office to share the big news and see what they could do to help.

----------

Just like that dream again and again, he drove into the same scene, the same road, and the same building.

Then get off the car in the same way, enter the elevator in the same way, and press the same button in the same way.

He was no longer sure if this was another dream.

The elevator door opened, and a long corridor appeared in front of him. He was in a trance for a moment, not knowing where he was.

"Hodge?" Standing behind him, Reed tentatively called out, waking him up from his daze.

"I'm fine!" he replied, walking straight out of the elevator.

Reed looked at him suspiciously.

"Agent Hotchner!" Dr. Gardner was waiting for them, looking very excited. "You won, she performed a miracle."

"How is she now? Can we meet her?" Hodge evaded what she said, and now he just wants to make sure it's all true.

"She is fine now, but the long-term bed rest has reduced her body function, and now she is very weak. I will arrange for her to do rehabilitation after a while. She will get better." Dr. Gardner was extremely happy.

"Can we see her now?" Hodge asked again.

"Yes! You can see her!" Dr. Gardner replied. "I'm sorry, I got a little too excited."

"It's ok."

"Go in and see her!" Dr. Gardner let them in.

The end of this dream is not the time and time again, the empty room, facing the lost things alone, everything is a reminder of what happened in that house that day.

Same door, same scene.Pushing open the door, his eyes immediately caught the expected picture.

Sleeping Beauty turned her head to one side and opened her bright eyes, looking at them with a smile.

Those light brown bright pupils finally reflected his face again.

"Dani, welcome back!" Reed walked to the bed, blinking hard to keep the tears from falling, with a joyful smile on his face, unable to restrain himself.

Dany's gaze followed him as he approached.

She raised her right hand vigorously, but it only moved slightly.Reed sensed her movement and crouched by her bed to take that hand.

She smiled.

"My... small... handsome... brother!" She said this with difficulty, and the respirator around her neck made her very uncomfortable.

Reed lay on the edge of the bed and wept bitterly.

"Don't...cry..."

she says.

From the moment she entered the door, Dani's eyes followed Reed and never stopped on Hodge.

Not once.

Hodge stood behind Reed, quietly.

After Reed finished venting his emotions, he raised his head, stared at Dani's always smiling eyes, and smiled happily.

"I cried like a girl," Reid laughed at himself.

Dany nodded slightly in agreement.

"You are still so merciless. Do you think I am much older? You saw a boy in his twenties before, but now he is an old man in his 30s. Do you find it particularly awkward?"

She shook her head, "It's still...before...the same."

"Really?! You must be the parental mentality explosion you said, and the child will never grow up in the parents' heart!" Reed smiled back and resisted.

Then he found out what he had said.

Dani's focused eyes suddenly became distracted, and Reed could clearly see the expression on her face, even the moisture that hadn't really appeared in her eyes.

He reminded her of that child.

But he didn't know how to remedy it, so he raised his head and asked Hodge, who had been silent all the time, for help.

"I just informed Li Yunhao that they are on their way now. I heard that everyone in your law firm wants to see you." Hodge tried to change the subject.

Danni turned her eyes to Hodge, met those deep pupils, and her eyes dimmed instantly.

She averted her eyes and looked out of the window.
