[Comprehensive] IQ knocks on the door

Speaking of which, Augustine was wronged. Originally, little Wright's revenge had nothing to do with him, but in the end Augustine almost became little Wright's next target.In the final analysis, all this is due to the hatred Gartner gave him.

This incident dates back to when Augustine first entered the police station. Gartner is like Augustine's natural enemy. When she saw him, she was very cold towards him. Maybe Augustine has a background that she doesn't have.The psychology of jealousy caused Gartner to unilaterally regard Augustine as an enemy.

Speaking of which, Augustine's luck is not very good. It seems that since he was released from prison, he has inexplicably added a buff to attract criminals.When Gartner was arguing with his boss about Augustine's problem that day, Wright Jr. happened to pass by.Based on Gartner's statement, the criminal with all kinds of newspaper ideas in his mind regarded Augustine as another evidence of corruption in the New York government.So while avenging his brother, he decided to clean up the moth along the way.

On the night when Augustine wrote the report, Wright Jr. wanted to take the opportunity to follow up the sneak attack, kill and dismember Augustine according to the previous practice, and contribute to his serial murder case.But then Reid's arrival disrupted his plans.

Wright Jr. has been in the police station as Abraham and has listened to BAU's profile in the past few days.He had great admiration for the group's ability to reason about his character even without meeting him.Even if he stands on the opposite side of them, it can't affect his good opinion of everyone in BAU.

So when Augustine left with Reid, Wright Jr. didn't follow.But Wright Jr. was bitter about not being able to discipline Augustine, who just so happened to not have the text of his coroner's report expunged.During those few days in the forensics department, little Wright still knew some of the practice rules that the forensic profession must abide by.He thought that if Augustine's papers were leaked, Augustine would be suspended. At that time, he would not have the conditions to continue to associate with Reid, and he could take the opportunity to get rid of him.

This is also the reason why little Wright would contact Augustine later.

After hearing the cause and effect, Augustine touched the back of her neck unconsciously: "So I have brushed shoulders with death twice?"

Although Reid also had a bit of fear on his face, he still discussed the matter: "It's not necessarily true. Your skill is so good, even if Wright strikes, he can't do anything to you. On the contrary, he will send himself into your hands."

"I can't see it, you think so highly of me." Augustine said with a smile, he beckoned to add another glass of beer for himself, and took a big gulp under Reid's disapproving gaze: "Don't be so serious, I'm a vagrant now, indulge What happened at one o'clock?"

Reid looked at the juice in front of him, feeling helpless that everyone treated him like a child.God knows he's a year older than Augustine.Thinking of this, it was rare for Reid to have a bad intention, and he reached out and switched the cups in front of the two of them.Before Augustine could protest, he took a swig from the glass.

Augustine froze, feeling a little amused.He held the glass of juice in his hand, thought for a while, and calmly took a sip of the place where Reid had just drank.

For Augustine, the taste that was too sweet and greasy filled his mouth, but his heart was silently sad.He felt that he seemed to have taken a big step in the direction of an idiot without knowing it.

Reid didn't pay attention to these details.He did drink a little better than Augustine thought.At least Reid took a gulp of his beer, but it didn't feel like it.If you want to say that there is something wrong, only the eyes are a little brighter. Augustine was sure it wasn't because of the alcohol, but just because the prank was successful.

Reid put down his glass, grinned, a little happy: "Anyway, the truth about the reported theft is clear, and you can go back to work tomorrow."

Augustine was a little depressed: "I don't really want to go back. In fact, it's not bad to just take a paid vacation."

"Don't even think about it." Reid said with a malicious smile: "I couldn't explain things clearly before. It's fine if you don't go back, but now, if you don't go back to work, it makes me, a person who has been squeezed out of vacations, so happy. .”

"Don't talk about that." Augustine sighed: "At least your boss is not as annoying as Gartner."

"Ms. Gartner is not your direct supervisor. Besides, she really handled the matter in a dishonest manner, and everyone in the police station can see it. I think she will not dare to make things difficult for you when you go back this time."

"It's hard to say, she's very small." Augustine muttered vaguely, and changed the subject before Reid tried to persuade her again: "Speaking of which, judging from your words just now, you can be regarded as my savior Ah." Looking at Reid's puzzled eyes, Augustine said concisely, "That night you worked overtime with me."

"Oh." Reid didn't think it was his fault. On the contrary, he felt that if he hadn't held back little Wright's plan that night, maybe he would have been caught already.

What Reid wanted in his heart was to let Augustine know, and he didn't know whether he should be happy about Reid's trust in him, or sad that Reid didn't worry about him being in danger.

Luckily Augustine doesn't read minds, and Reid doesn't say what he thinks.

Augustine paused and asked, "Then when will you go back this time?"

"It's still early." Reid said hesitantly, "A few vacations have been blocked by the case. Hotch is determined to give us a few more days of vacation this time. Elle and Morgan have already planned where they will travel during the vacation. , Gideon also wants to go to his secret relaxation place to rest for a few days, if they are interrupted by an unexpected incident this time, I think they will all go berserk."

"What about you?" Augustine tried to suppress the expectation in her heart and asked calmly.

Reid looked embarrassed, he hesitated for a while before saying vaguely: "I might go back to Las Vegas."

Reid's answer was so difficult because he thought of his mother in the nursing home, it was a little difficult to say, and he didn't want Augustine to ask too much embarrassment.But in the eyes of Augustine, who has just been rejected, Reid is just making excuses not to spend more time with him.With such a misunderstanding, Augustine looked a little stiff, and his heart was even more bitter and astringent, completely forgetting that it was himself who swore to stay away from Reid to calm down the hormones.

Augustine's heart was sour, and she didn't want to lose face and act like a stalker.He said with difficulty: "Really. It's a pity that I can't go back to Las Vegas for the time being, so I can't be with you."

Reid thought of Augustine's father's attitude towards Augustine, and felt sympathetic: "That's right, you'd better avoid it."

Reid was talking about Augustine's family confronting him, but he didn't want Augustine to misunderstand again.He also felt embarrassed to face him in front of Reid, and was subtly telling him to stay away from him.

Well, the misunderstanding went awry. Augustine himself is extremely good, he is different from Reid, although both of them are geniuses to the point of almost monsters, they will be rejected by ordinary people.But the way the two faced malice was indeed completely opposite.

Due to family reasons, Reid chose to skip a grade in order to get a job after graduating early to subsidize his family.So when facing those classmates who are older and stronger than him. Reid is inferior and autistic. Although he will try to use his IQ to help the team win the championship, he will try to integrate himself into the collective.But at the end of the day, Reid is still not strong enough.In the sophomore adolescence when he envied rebellious muscular men and rejected weak chickens and good babies, Reid, the weak chicken among the weak chickens, was always the object of ridicule and exploitation, which made Reid develop a tolerant but self-effacing character that was almost inferior.Although he has much higher talents than ordinary people, he still has a humble and self-confident heart.

But Augustine is different. He lives in a family that doesn't have a difficult material life but hates him extremely. Augustine doesn't need to use almost oppressive methods to force himself to grow up.On the contrary, he has learned to hide his clumsiness at a young age.He knew that his stepmother would never let him grow up safely if he showed superhuman talent.So in order to protect himself, he suppressed his expressive desire to grow step by step.That's why Augustine has the same IQ as Reid, but doesn't have as many degree certificates as Reid.And Augustine knows that his family background is only glamorous, but in fact he can't get any benefits.So precocious Augustine forced himself to deal with people he looked down upon in middle school.His communication skills were honed little by little at that time.

Because Augustine didn't need to squeeze himself to grow up quickly, he had a lot of time to develop more interests and hobbies after completing those almost childish topics for him when he was a child.Because his stepmother wanted to raise and abandon him, Augustine had absolutely no shortage of money when he was a child.It is her 'generosity' that makes Augustine such a wonderful human being.At this point Augustine really has to thank his stepmother.

A young man like Augustine who is smart, well-connected and multi-talented is naturally hotly sought after everywhere he goes.Growing up in this environment, coupled with Augustine's achievements that are unattainable by his peers, even though he looks heartless and easy to get along with, the arrogance in his bones is not comparable to anyone.This is why Augustine has only two close friends, Sheldon and Declan, around her.

The most obvious manifestation of Augustine's arrogance is: if you treat me three points well, I will return you five points.If you hurt me a point, I will pay you back ten points, and in the end, I will slap you in power as interest!

In the beginning, I didn't show my arrogance in front of Reid because I wanted to make friends.Later, it was because of his inhumane feelings that he chose to back down.But Augustine's temper is right there, no matter how mature he usually is, to put it bluntly, he is just a kid who has just entered the society and has never experienced love.Even if Augustine seems to have a high emotional intelligence, it is an illusion.He didn't know how to express his emotions, and he didn't know how to resolve his grievances, so he couldn't bear what Reid said today. Augustine exploded almost on the spot.

Fortunately, even Augustine subconsciously couldn't bear to hurt the person in front of him with harsh words.This also avoided the ending that he regretted in the future.

Augustine looked at Reid with colder eyes than ever before. Reid looked at Augustine like this, somehow it felt like falling into an ice cellar.A pang of sadness welled up in his heart.

Augustine looked at the person in front of him, and felt very wronged in his heart. He thought that I just liked you, and I didn't do anything out of the ordinary. Do you need to reject me like this?

The youthful spirit made Augustine feel sour in his heart and he had to pretend to be indifferent. He looked at Reid as if he was looking at a stranger.If Max sees this, maybe he will complain in his heart, is it because Augustine's brain was hit by a meteorite when she didn't know, and then he lost his memory and didn't recognize anyone at all?Otherwise, why would a idiot who secretly gave himself the other's surname suddenly turn his eyebrows coldly at his baby?

Augustine rubbed the glass in his hand, and said in a decisive tone: "You are right, we should avoid it." He got up without looking at Reid, dropped a few banknotes, turned and left.

Reid, who was left behind, was wronged and incomprehensible. He just asked Augustine to avoid his family and not to hit a stone with a pebble. Why is he unhappy?It was fine at the beginning, and he also wanted to let the two of them settle down, so why did things get worse in the end?

So, I tell you to avoid confession.Now it's all right, if the contradiction is not resolved, the two people's thinking circuits are no longer on the same line, and they deserve to keep misunderstanding each other's meaning!

The author has something to say: So with Xiao Ao’s temperament, if you don’t give him a little jerk, he will never learn to bow his head in his life ╮(╯▽╰)╭

☆、July 7 Jinjiang exclusive release

New York 43

"Austin." The voice close at hand made Augustine blink, and before he could stop his erratic thoughts, he habitually raised a smile.When he saw the face of the person in front of him clearly, Augustine couldn't help but froze for a moment, feeling like he didn't know what was going on.

"Austin, are you okay?" Caroline's face was even more worried: "What's the matter recently, you are always distracted."

"What else, it's not because Reid is gone." It wasn't Augustine who said it, but Max.But she didn't know that what she said was just a joke, but she told the truth.Since Reid left, Augustine heard his name from someone else for the first time, and couldn't help being a little dazed.

"Max." Caroline gave her a warning look, and Max curled his lips and fell silent.

"Ah, Caroline. I'm sorry." Augustine smiled apologetically: "There have been a lot of things recently, so I'm a little bit out of energy."

"It's fine." Caroline smiled kindly, and then asked again: "Is it true that you said you could let me see my father?"

"Well, yes." Augustine nodded, with a tone of asking for credit: "Mr. Channing has just been transferred to prison, and it was not so easy to meet, but you know that Gartner owes me a favor, so he agreed to my little one. request."

"This is really great." Caroline couldn't help but smile on her face, her eyes were slightly bright, and she said excitedly, "Austin, I don't even know how to thank you!"

"No, no, no." Augustine pretended not to see the affection in her eyes, and said with a smile, "Just forgive me for my previous offense."

"Of course." Caroline was a little embarrassed: "Actually, don't look at how excited I was before, in fact, I have forgiven you a long time ago."

"That's good." Said Augustine got up pretending to have something to do: "It's getting late, I have something to do, see you tomorrow."

"See you."

Augustine waved Caroline off again.He was walking back to the rental house alone, looking a little dazed.It seems that he hasn't contacted Reid for almost half a month.

After the last bad break up, Augustine was really angry at the beginning. He hung up on Reid after calling several times in a row. After a long time, Reid stopped calling.

Once he lost Reid's 'harassment', Augustine began to fidget. He began to regret that his attitude was too decisive, and he lost his temper unilaterally without listening to Reid's explanation. Maybe Reid didn't mean that? Augustine couldn't help thinking.But every time I think about it, another more depressing thought pops up: Even if Reid didn't mean it before, after being rejected by him so many times, no matter how good-tempered Reid is, I'm afraid he still has the option to cut off contact with him mean.

Just thinking about it like this made Augustine regret and hate.It's not that he never thought of calling Reid to show his weakness, but he was also afraid of hearing the words of breaking up the relationship from Reid, so he held back and deceived himself.

Augustine felt uncomfortable, he could only find something to do to distract himself.So he dealt with Caroline again, trying to get in touch with Channing as soon as possible, and get back the files he had stored with him.

Since he had seen a picture of Caroline from Declan before, this somehow made him feel uneasy.He knew that his father must have sent someone to spy on him, and if he contacted Channing rashly, nothing would happen in the end.

So Augustine had no choice but to show her favor to Caroline, pretending to be a suitor, and working hard for her.Therefore, Augustine's arranging to meet Channing seems like a small trick to please the object of pursuit, so it is much more logical.In addition, Gartner owed him a favor before, and after she satirized Augustine's behavior of using power for personal gain, she agreed to the meeting.

Everyone has been fooled by Augustine, except Max.

She has long stubbornly believed that Augustine is a gay, and it is impossible for him to like Caroline, so she is always on guard against Augustine, and does everything possible to disrupt his arrangements.

Augustine did mess up her plans several times.Fortunately, the general direction was right, and after a period of delay, Augustine was finally able to meet Channing.

Tomorrow's meeting will be under the surveillance of Gartner, and there will be two ticking time bombs next to it. Augustine may not be able to talk to Channing.However, Augustine didn't know how long he would have to wait if he missed this opportunity.He doesn't have that patience.So Augustine should have planned well today.

But after returning to the rental house, Augustine couldn't calm down.He threw himself on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze. Augustine didn't deliberately think about a certain person, but there was another person everywhere in his memory, even if he emptied his mind, he could still 'see' him.

"Shit!" Augustine swears, and curls herself up on her side, trying hard to fall asleep.But at this moment, a doorbell interrupted his deception.

"Shit!" Augustine cursed again, and he roughly pulled himself out of the covers, walked across the living room, and opened the door without even looking outside. Augustine thought that no matter who was outside the door, he would not give him a good face.But he didn't want to, his hope was in vain.

There was no one outside the door, only a courier box was placed at the door.

When Augustine saw the express box, the corners of his eyes twitched. He suddenly remembered that some inexplicable person sent him a threatening letter of apology just like this. Although it did not cause any substantial harm in the end, it definitely gave him An indelible psychological shadow was left on Augustine's heart.This kind of shadow makes Augustine's hair stand up when he sees something similar.

Augustine resisted the idea of ​​throwing the thing directly downstairs and carefully carried it into the house.After confirming that it was not a bomb, poisonous gas, sulfuric acid or other high-risk items, Augustine opened it carefully.

"What is this?" Augustine took out the contents of the box: "A copy of "The Collector", a Holy Grail? Who's kidding me..." He pouted, not even bothering to open the book, just put it together That well-crafted holy grail set aside together.

Augustine made some food for herself casually, and after eating, she went back to bed and fell asleep with her head covered.But he slept extremely restlessly this time. The Holy Grail seemed to have magical powers and entered Augustine's dream directly.Suddenly, he came to a well-decorated house.The little girl's cry rang in his ears.Just when he wanted to find the little girl in his dream and take her away, Reid appeared in front of him again.He was searching room by room for something.

This time Augustine didn't even have time to think about it, he only felt the danger subconsciously, just when he was about to call out to Reid, Reid opened another room, at this moment there was a loud explosion.The flames engulfed Reid with lightning speed, and Augustine suddenly woke up from the dream.

He was panting heavily, but his eyes were expressionless, as if he hadn't recovered from the explosion.

At this moment, Augustine didn't care about face, he picked up his mobile phone and hurriedly called Reid.

The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up.When Augustine heard Reid's voice, he suddenly felt as if he was in another world.

"Aust, now is not the time." Reid whispered, he seemed to have not slept well for a long time, and his voice sounded a little tired.

Augustine interrupted him like a psychic at that time: "Spencer, I received a package with a book and a Holy Grail."

Reid was stunned for a moment when he heard the meaningless words, and then said excitedly: "What? You also received it? How could you receive it!"

"What's wrong?" Augustine knew that his premonition was right when he heard Reid's excitement, and something had indeed happened, so he couldn't help asking: "Reid, what happened?"

Someone over there seems to be asking this question again. Reid explained in a few words, and then turned on the speaker of the phone, and all kinds of familiar voices came from the phone in an instant.

"Jones, you said you also received an unknown package?" Gideon asked with a slightly stern voice: "What's inside?"

"A Collector and a Holy Grail."

""The Collector"?" Reid's puzzled voice came: "Garcia, help me find information about the book "The Collector"."

"There are so many books with this name, I need specific information." Garcia said.

"The book should have been published in 1963. The author is..."

"Fowles," Augustine added immediately.

"Okay, look at mine." There was a short typing sound on the keyboard, and then there was an exclamation: "Ohmygod! Reid, come and see!"

"This is?!" Reid let out a short exclamation, and then said, "Yes, that's right! Chaucer is medieval English. So he's alluding to medieval butterflies, Fowls! This is the book the prisoner wants us to read ! Thank you, Aust. You have been a great help!" Reid immediately hung up the phone.

"You're welcome... You're welcome." Augustine's words froze on her lips.He rubbed his hair depressingly, and hesitated a little: "Does this count as a reconciliation?" Then he slapped his face suddenly: "Forget it, absolutely! Even if Spencer doesn't admit it, I'll stalk him as if he did. Already!"

***

On the other hand, Gideon watched as Reid and Garcia excitedly began to solve crossword puzzles.However, his brows did not relax at all because the matter was about to come to light, on the contrary, they tended to tighten more and more. Gideon said to Hotch, who also looked unhappy beside him: "The key is in the hands of the youngest person. The youngest person is not Reid but Augustine Jones. Why? He is not a member of BAU. Didn't the prisoner say that this matter should be resolved within the BAU team? Why did he get involved?"

"Augustine Jones." Hotch muttered the name silently, wondering what he was thinking: "Since he was released from prison, he has been involved too deeply with BAU. Once or twice may be a coincidence. So many times, it can no longer be explained by coincidence It's over. What the hell is he planning?"

"I don't know now. If we continue to watch, one day he will show his feet."
