Nathan Ingnut's funeral took place three days later.

On the day of the funeral, Peng Ziqian felt unreal when watching Ingnart's burial.She seemed to be emotionally withdrawn, watching the scene from the outside, looking at the expressions of the people around her, but she didn't feel anything.

This is the second time she has attended a loved one's funeral.The memory of the first time is still so clear.Because she is the second life and precocious, she always knows more than children of the same age.This reminded her of her first life, whether the family felt the same way about her who died young, she smiled thinking of this.

Although she is also very smart, her brother as a boy is stronger than her. After her father passed away, the mother and family put all their expectations on her brother and completely ignored her, but even so...they will be sad.

Peng Ziqian's self-deprecating smile is reflected in a completely different feeling when seen on his face. Let alone the feeling in the eyes of outsiders, in Rhett's eyes, he automatically interprets it as excessive sadness.

On the day before the funeral, Peng Ziqian finally stopped tossing, seemingly accepting the fact and giving up.

Before that, none of them offered to persuade her to give up, because they knew that it would have no effect. During the phone call, He Qi clearly told them about Peng Ziqian's childhood experience, and they could easily deduce what pushed Peng Ziqian to join bau.

In the face of grief, many people choose to give up on themselves, while others choose to learn to help others.

So in the face of the second such blow, she who already has enough ability will not give up easily, unless she changes her mind.

After confirming that Peng Ziqian's mood had finally stabilized, Morgan went back to Quantico overnight, where there were still a bunch of cases waiting to be dealt with by the team. Al had already left the team before that, and the newcomer Emily Plantis was very helpful. Ability, but it will take some time to integrate into the group.Morgan was very worried about the headquarters, so he went back first.

Rhett didn't know what to do, but Morgan said he was about the same age as Peng Ziqian, so let him stay.

After the funeral, the people who came to express condolences went to talk to Nathan's family, but Peng Ziqian stood in front of the tombstone without saying a word.Rhett wasn't sure if he should come forward and say something.

After struggling for a long time, he still felt that he should say something, so he walked up and asked cautiously, "Do you want...do you want to take a walk?"

"..." There was silence for a while, until Rhett thought he would not take care of her, she turned her head and smiled at him, "Thank you."

Although this smile is a bit forced, it is a good start.Rhett told himself so.

Two people in formal suits strolled in the garden.This is the outskirts, there is nothing but the cemetery, and the morning dew is heavy, no one will come here at this time except for those who need to bury their loved ones.

They passed by rows of tombstones. There are many names and ages here. There are old people, some who died young, and even those who died young... You have to feel that the world is impermanent.Then Peng Ziqian stopped in front of the tombstone not far away.

Rhett took a look, his eyesight was good, and he quickly saw the Chinese surname Peng on the three tombstones side by side, and then realized that this was her family.He thought she would stay here for a long time, but Peng Ziqian only hesitated for a moment and then walked again.

"Don't pay homage?" He asked.

"I didn't bring any flowers." Peng Ziqian said, after thinking for a while, he looked at the white flowers on Reid's dress, reached out to take them off, and then took off the flowers on his chest, turned his head and put them away At one of the tombstones, then walk back again.

"Thank you for being here with me." Peng Ziqian said suddenly.

"Uh... well, we'd love to help."

"You have done a lot." Peng Ziqian said as he walked, "After 911/[-], I lost all my family members. Uncle Nathan took me to his home and let me live in his house all the time, and hired someone to clean my house regularly. , he said that as long as I want, I can go back to live at any time... But in fact, I have never wanted to... You know, this kind of thing is hard to accept..." Rhett nodded understandingly, at this time he did not make any remarks, Human emotions cannot be measured with statistics.

He felt that the best thing to do at this time was to listen.

"Uncle Nathan is like my father." Peng Ziqian said so...

Rhett didn't quite understand this feeling, since his father had left his family long before he could remember.But he could understand this feeling, because of his closeness, he couldn't accept that this unexpected disaster took away her father again.

Suddenly Peng Ziqian stopped, caught off guard, and Ruide had no choice but to stop quickly. Unexpectedly, Peng Ziqian turned to face him and suddenly took a step forward to hug his neck, "Thank you for being willing to accompany me until now."

Reid seemed at a loss, but slowly he hesitated and put his hand behind Peng Ziqian's back to comfort her and patted her. He felt that the language at this moment was so poor that he could only keep saying "everything will pass."

When you are in grief, having someone by your side will always make you feel that everything will pass.

Back in the city that afternoon, Peng Ziqian sent Ruide to the airport.

"Tell He Qi that I will go back after two days to help with the funeral." Peng Ziqian seemed to be in a better mood.

"Okay." Reid nodded and turned around to leave. He had just taken two steps when he suddenly remembered something and turned his head again, "Uh..."

"how?"

"Um, do you remember the last holiday...the time when we were supposed to have half a month off...we missed a lecture...if, you have time...next Wednesday..."

"If there is no job, we will go." Reid did not say the invitation, but Peng Ziqian replied.

"Okay, I'll see you in two days." Reid paused, smiled, and felt that it didn't seem suitable, so he nodded awkwardly and said something.

"""

But it seemed that God was always willing to play tricks on them. Two days after Peng Ziqian returned to work, they received another big case.

Another serial murder case, and the murderer was keen to call the police before committing the crime.The team members rushed to the scene and investigated the scene and phone records. They found that the murderer was clean and tidy, but he seemed submissive when calling the police. Therefore, they inferred that this was a gang crime. There were three people in the gang, and there was a ruthless commander in the gang. , and a timid but conscientious partner.

This gang called themselves Raphael, and they regarded themselves as God's agents, but in the new on-site investigation, they felt that there was an error in the profile. This is not a gang, but a psychopath with delusional disorder, and one of this person's personality Will be insane to post the death video of the 'criminal' they punished online.

But it was also because of these videos that the local police recognized the owner of the poor woman's dog who was dismembered in the last video.The closest to this suspect is Reid, JJ and Peng Ziqian's group who are still outside.

They called on this man surnamed Hank, but the man seemed wary and didn't let them into the house at all.

The three people who were rejected stood outside the door, and JJ asked, "If he didn't want to admit it, why did he call the police before?"

"Maybe he called the police not to admit anything, but to test?" Peng Ziqian said thoughtfully.

"Test what?"

"Police response time!" Rhett understood her meaning first, and then ran to the side of the house to try to find something through the window.

He was halfway there, seeing a dozen monitors in the room.But at the same time he also started Rhett, so he ran out the back door immediately.

They saw the suspect run through the back door to the back barn, and as Reid crouched in the doorway, he said, "Call Hedge."

"Don't make trouble, where does the signal come from in the wilderness." Peng Ziqian had already dug out his phone, but it was the fact that made people frustrated.

"Hedge knows we're here, he'll come over." JJ said.

"We just need to hold on to prevent him from running away." Reid turned his head as he said so, "I'll go to the back door to block, and you watch from the front." Then he walked around without listening to what they said.

"Hey!" jj wanted to call him, but Rhett had run away.

She and Peng Ziqian glanced at each other, then jj gritted his teeth and said to her, "Go and help Rhett."

"Are you sure you can do it alone?"

"Go, you know how bad Reid's shooting skills are." JJ's words dispelled Peng Ziqian's worries. She took one last look at JJ and nodded to her, then followed Reid's route to find the past.

But it was too late when Peng Ziqian touched the back door, she saw the back door opened and there was a faint movement in the grass, she knew that the suspect ran through the back door, Rhett must be chasing him, so she had no choice but to rush into the grass .

Running around in the grass is not a good thing. Just as she was walking forward cautiously, a sudden scream came from the barn. It was the sound of jj, and then two gunshots pierced the night sky.

Peng Ziqian's first reaction was to run back, but before she started to move, she heard Rhett's voice not far from the grass in front of her, "Jj, Adele!"

Subconsciously, she responded with "Red!" and then walked over, hearing the voice, she knew that Reid was less than ten meters away from her.

She walked over to try to push the bushes away, but a gunshot sounded close to her ears. She first felt a chill in her chest, and then a heart-piercing pain spread from her abdomen.

She fell to the ground under the huge impact of the bullet, and she felt the life draining rapidly from her body.

This is the first time she has been so close to death, the fear of death, the pain is rapidly moving away from her, it is as if she has been pulled away from the feeling...

Then, before losing consciousness, she sees the young Hank pointing a gun at a panic-stricken Red.

What she thought at that moment was that the expression on her face to Al must have been so funny a few months ago.

After that, she was plunged into darkness.
