The feeling of holding it in my hand is unexpectedly annoying.

However, the calmness on her face was soon broken. Looking at the light on the phone screen, it was another text message sent from garbled characters.Biting her lips, Amanda opened the text message.

"Death is not the end, everything will start again." The black font lay quietly on the screen, Amanda frowned, she didn't understand why this person sent her this text message.Everything is not over yet, does it mean that the matter of my parents is just the beginning?Could it be that someone is going to die.Knowing that she is not an expert in this field, Amanda decided to go to Gideon.

Quickly dialed a series of numbers, and quietly waited for the caller to connect, "Uncle.Gideon. I have received a new text message." After speaking, she got a request to talk to the other party. She glanced at the store hesitantly, and Amanda chose left quickly.

After closing the store door, Amanda hurried to the street. She was a little anxious and stopped a taxi. She felt that the matter should be settled as soon as possible. She always had a bad feeling in her heart.

When she came to the gate of BAU, Amanda felt that her heart calmed down a little.With a flash of determination in her blue eyes, she walked quickly into the building.She should block all those messy thoughts now.She will definitely pay back what she owes to the couple.

Perhaps it was because Gideon had already said hello and she had already been here last time, this time the entry was much easier than the previous few times.Standing at the door of the elevator, looking at the flashing floor signs, Amanda stood at the door with her hands clasped.

"What's the text message?" When Amanda arrived upstairs, Gideon was already waiting for her at the door.There was fatigue that could not be concealed in the bright eyes.They had just returned from a case and hadn't had time to rest.

A flash of guilt flashed in Amanda's heart, but she quickly returned to normal. She handed her mobile phone to Gideon, and the page was still on the text message.

Seeing the content of the text message, Gideon frowned, and there was a hint of vigilance in her eyes that she was not familiar with, maybe there was something hidden in it that she didn't know.

"This shouldn't have been said, but come with me." Saying the croak, Gideon walked towards his office.Amanda didn't see the other familiar faces, maybe she went home to rest.

Gideon sat in his armchair, a serious expression on his face.Maybe it was more serious than she thought, Amanda began to think in her mind, but Gideon quickly interrupted her thoughts.

"If I hadn't let the police know about this matter, maybe I wouldn't know the meaning of this text message." Gideon's tone was soothing, "The higher-ups decided to organize the same psychological investigation as before. It's still for government officials, this time , will someone die? Then, this is definitely not an accident."

A look of surprise flashed in Amanda's eyes. With this incident, perhaps the direction of their investigation became more confusing.

"However, thinking in a good direction, those guys who cherish life probably won't stop us from investigating the matter. However, the investigation direction of the matter becomes complicated. If it's a professor who does psychological profiling, he always dies The first thing to suspect would be the politicians he was dealing with, but if they did it, they would never have given someone a chance to text you." Gideon picked up a report in his hand. Amanda didn't see what was written on it.

"Then, it might be the participating professor." Amanda's tone was so calm that she couldn't believe it.She knew that most of the professors knew each other well, and most of them were friends of her parents.

"This is the worst-case scenario, Amanda. We may always face the dilemma of taking our closest people to court. Justice or family affection, this is often a difficult choice." Gideon obviously knew that this possibility was in fact biggest.

After a while of silence, Amanda had nothing to say.What she didn't actually say was that what she couldn't stand was not sending people she knew well to prison, but that they had betrayed her parents.She didn't know those people very well.Especially familiar, in fact, only Gideon and Cole.

"For this matter, I will ask ** to contact the higher authorities. After all, we can only participate if the local police apply for help from us. Therefore, you still need to wait for a while. The psychological profile will be in the next month." Gideon Rubbed his temples.

"I see." Amanda knew that waiting was her only choice, and she didn't think she could investigate the truth by herself.She is not Sherlock Holmes, she does not have the courage to challenge danger.

"So, go to lunch?" Gideon smiled and looked at Amanda, this mature junior was always able to do well without being worried.But it's usually like this, which makes people more worried, whether she often forces herself.

"I think you need more rest after lunch. So, I will cook lunch. You can't always eat takeaway." Amanda's expression is very serious, she knows that the elder in front of her rarely eats home-cooked meals .

"Okay, I see." There was a trace of helplessness on Gideon's face, it was concern, he couldn't refuse, and the work was indeed over.The next case should not appear so soon.

Amanda's cooking standard is only average, but, as a Chinese in her previous life, she also upholds the view that no matter how expensive the food outside is, it is not as good as the ordinary food at home.She has always been a traditional Chinese woman, so, in fact, there are still many things she is not used to living in the United States.

Knowing that Gideon needs to rest, Amanda cooks the simplest dishes. After putting the food on the table, she pulls away the seat, "You must eliminate all the food on the left and right. Otherwise, I will never I'll make something for you to eat." There was a hint of threat in the tone, but it was more of concern.For the elders, such words are actually the most useful.

"But there are so many, even if there are two more me, it probably won't be enough." A trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes, but he was more happy, and Gideon picked up the knife and fork.

Amanda cooks ordinary American food and doesn't want to cook Chinese food in a different way.Ordinary is what matters.God knows how long it took her to learn how to cook authentic American food.

"I don't know when, little Amanda's food has been so good." Gideon suddenly smiled, "I don't know, who did you learn this level for?"

"I'm not used to the outside world, so of course I learned it for myself. Aunt. Cole is worried about me but I don't have a boyfriend yet. Why are you starting to worry? Don't worry, I will be able to marry. "Amanda realized that the first half of her sentence might make Gideon think about her parents by mistake, so she turned the topic in another direction.

Shaking his head, Gideon turned his realization to food, how could he not detect Amanda's intentions with his sensitivity?

The chat has always been relaxed and cheerful.It wasn't until Amanda urged that Gideon remembered to go home and rest.He is indeed very tired, even in order to keep his brain functioning awake, he must maintain adequate sleep.

"Be safe." Watching Gideon leave, the smile on Amanda's face disappeared.She could see Gideon's dedication to this job, but in the end he had to leave this place where he had put so much effort into it.She wants to change the plot, but does she really have the ability?It's not that she doesn't believe in herself, but that this kind of thing, who knows what the result of the butterfly's wings flapping is?

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Amanda felt that she was tired and hypocritical, and she didn't know what to do.She should think less about such a waste of brain cells. Professor Fels has also been waiting for her answer, and has been occupying the quota but has not yet decided, which is not very good, she still has to make a decision as soon as possible.

There is still a compulsory class tomorrow, so she still has to rest early.

Going upstairs, even the shower she usually likes can't make her feel better. If this is not resolved, she may really be suffering from depression.Collapsing on his own bed, the ceiling already has a familiar feeling. I have been looking at this ceiling for four years, and I almost forgot what the chandelier at home looks like.

She is a forgetful woman, and this feeling is so inexplicable that it makes people feel uncomfortable. Amanda slightly covered her eyes with her hand, the light made her tear up.

9.009. The detective who officially kicked off the curtain

John and Keith seemed to be a flash in the pan, quickly appearing in Amanda's life and then disappearing quickly. If John was not still working in their musical instrument store, Amanda would really doubt whether these two people really appeared.
