Chapter 30 After the Nightmare

The shot that Elle fired at the suspect caused the ballistic to deviate from the original track. Jessie's injury was not critical, but she was in a coma due to excessive blood loss.

The intertwined fragments kept coming to mind.

"Hotch, the last time you drove me home you got me shot..."

"I can never go back to the past..."

"When I first joined BAU, I didn't understand why you never smiled, now I think, I'll never get an answer..."

This is the scene from memory, Jessie muttered in her heart... It's just the heartache, it's so real.Her remaining sanity made her realize that her blood was flowing from her body little by little, which should be due to the effect of anesthesia. She couldn't feel the pain, but instead felt a kind of irreparable depression...

In a daze, she felt a cold instrument reaching into her wound, crossing the criss-crossing blood vessels and bones, and pinching the bullet embedded in her body.

I don't know if it's the feeling that Elle said, putting her hand into the wound and writing on the wall with blood on it... Jessie thought vaguely, feeling uncomfortable in her heart, and blood gushed out from the wound again.

"Prepare for electric shocks... and blood bags from two units..." She heard someone talking in front of her, and forced her eyes to half open, but only saw the shining shadowless lamp.

A numb pain came from his chest, Jessie calmed down and fell asleep.

"Blood pressure rises, we continue the operation."

"It's been two hours since the operation..." Elle anxiously paced back and forth in the corridor of the hospital, "Blood transfusion and electric shock...how could it be so serious."

"She'll be fine..." JJ comforted the distraught Elle, "Don't worry..."

"I shot in self-defense, right?" Elle leaned against the wall and asked.

JJ nodded. "I also want to know why she doesn't want you to shoot..."

Maybe something uncontrollable will happen after the shooting... JJ looked at Elle who was puzzled, and then at the operating room where the red light was still flashing.

She was shot herself, maybe she didn't expect it... JJ recalled the moment of uncertain surprise that flashed in Jessie's eyes after being aimed.secretly speculated.

"How's the situation?" Hotch rushed to the hospital with the rest of the team.

"Still operating..." Elle glanced at Hotch and lowered her head.

"You come back to Quantico with us tonight." Hotch gave the order blankly.

"Then Jessie...?" JJ thought Hotch was telling him to go back.

"JJ, you stay here, Elle will go back with us." Hotch looked at the closed operating room door.Call me when she wakes up.

"Oh..." JJ glanced at Elle with some sympathy, looked at the serious man in front of him, and whispered, "You want to punish her? There was nothing wrong with her shooting at that time..."

Hotch rubbed his nose in embarrassment, "It's just a routine inspection, even if she isn't punished, she still has to complete a work report on this time, and, as she said herself, she will not be punished until the case is over. of……"

"Can you stop scaring people with a straight face?" JJ winked at Elle, gave a comforting look, then turned around and continued to ask Hotch, "Then what about my work?"

"I try not to let the team take on new cases during this time." Hotch looked at his watch, "We can't deal with the media as well as you do, it's getting late, we're going to the airport first, thank you for being there alone Here. See you later."

"Take care..." JJ watched them off.

"The little doctor will trouble you so much..." Elle glanced at the operating room reluctantly.

"You should consider your own safety first..." JJ frightened Elle.

"Hotch is angry?" Elle belatedly remembered that she had rushed out of the field...

"Goodluck (good luck)..." JJ patted Elle's shoulder with a smirk, "Hotch's memory is very good..."

Seeing the backs of several people merge into the darkness, JJ turned back to the hospital corridor, and the red light in the operating room stopped blinking.She took a deep breath and walked towards the doctor who took off his mask.

"Doctor..." JJ looked at the operating room, hesitating to speak.

"It's out of danger." The doctor in a white coat in front of him wiped the sweat from his forehead, "However, he is still in a coma. It is strange to say that her injury is not serious, but the patient's mood has been unstable. According to In previous cases, she would not have lost so much blood."

"I see, thank you." JJ nodded slightly to greet the doctor, and entered the ward.Looking at the person on the bed who was still frowning even in a coma, JJ thought for a while, then took out his cell phone and called Emily.

"Hey, it's me. I want you to find someone for me...Jessie. DoctorJessie."

"What?" Emily jumped up from the bed and looked at the time, "Did you wake up or did you sleep? Why did you check her?"

"I... just don't think it's right..." JJ actually couldn't tell the reason.

"JJ..." Emily persuaded, "Jessie stood up to attract the criminals' attention when she was trapped in the chemical plant with you; she also took care of the rest of the cases herself, why did you investigate her?"

"That's why I'm afraid she's hiding something." JJ looked at Jessie on the hospital bed, "Don't you think she's carrying too many secrets?"

"Everyone has secrets..." Emily sighed, "I'll help you find out first. But you can't just doubt her feelings for this team."

"I see……"

Emily hung up the phone and sat hugging her knees in the dark.Everyone has a side that they don't want to be known by others, and she herself is no exception, it's just that her ability to hide is much stronger than most people's.I don't know if JJ will blame himself if he knows about his past...

The grievance was provoked by me...Let me settle it myself...Even though she was thinking this way, Emily turned on the computer and checked Jessie's file.

"Strange..." Emily stared at the computer and muttered, "What secret can she have?"

"Do you know what you did wrong in this operation?" Hotch looked at Elle as soon as he sat down on the plane.

Reid wanted to step forward to dissuade him, but Morgan grabbed him.

"Elle's injury is just right, Hotch can't question her with such a severe attitude." Reid turned around and knocked Morgan down in confusion, holding his hand.

"Don't worry..." Gidoen patted Reid's shoulder in the tea room, "Hotch can't beat Elle."

"..." Reid made a cup of coffee indiscriminately, nestled in the corner and looked at the two people who were talking not far away.

"I know..." Elle nodded honestly, "I'm too flustered, this will encourage the suspect's rebellious emotions, and may cause him to shoot early."

"You clearly know that your situation is not suitable for field work, so what should you do now?" Hotch just wanted to emphasize his tone, but suddenly remembered the conversation that Jessie found him after the Fish King case, and his tone softened unconsciously.

"What's wrong?" Sensing the change in tone, Elle looked at Hotch curiously.

"When you were shot in the hospital, I went to Jessie's house to wipe off the blood. Jessie came back and said a few words to me...Hotch thought about it and told the whole scene." She said, you have always wanted to be part of this group , let me promise that no matter what happens, I will stand by your side.That way you don't feel like you're still alone when you need us. "

"She said all these?" Elle's eyes darkened suddenly, "What she said...is quite right..."

"I'm sorry," Hotch said sternly, "I didn't get to drive you home that day. Let that bastard ruin your sense of security at home."

"But for now." Hotch gave a rare smile. "Elle, welcome home."

Elle had tears in her eyes, "You know, you are more and more like the patriarch of BAU now. You are almost like everyone's Father."

"What about Gideon?" Hotch sneaked a glance at the three who were watching him.

"He's Mom..." Elle said seriously.

Hotch looked at Gideon and couldn't help laughing.

"Aren't you talking about Elle's field trip?" Gidoen took off his glasses, "Why are you all smiling at me?"

"Not awake yet...but out of danger..." JJ was on the phone with Elle early in the morning. "Relax, maybe your little doctor is just sleepy and wants to sleep more..." Just as he was talking, JJ tilted his head, and saw the fingers of the person lying on the bed move.

"Elle, I won't tell you anymore, Jessie seems to be waking up, um...you can tell Hotch..." JJ hung up the phone, saw the little doctor on the bed opened his eyes in a daze, and smiled, "you're awake?"

Jessie nodded and searched around for a week, "Why is it only you? Where are they?"

"I went back to the headquarters overnight." JJ's face tensed instantly when he saw the person in front of him, and he hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Elle is fine."

"All right?" Jessie recalled the nightmare, "Didn't Hotch hold her accountable?"

"What's wrong?" JJ didn't understand, "Even this time when the injury was healed, he went out to the field and just said 'this is not an example', how could he go into the details?"

"Is she okay?" Jessie asked after murmuring for a long time.

"not good."

"What?" Jessie tensed up instantly.

"You haven't woken up. Elle has been worried since she left the hospital yesterday to when she just called." JJ said slowly, "Why did you react so violently?"

Jessie was almost scared to death by the trick JJ sold.

"I remember I promised you. After the case in Ohio is over, I will tell you something." Jessie looked at JJ who was standing, "Sit down, it's time to tell you."

"If you really have something to hide, you don't need to tell it." JJ thought of the investigation Emily gave him about Jessie, the background was cleaner than the white paper, and even he had more dark history than her. Emily is also right, everyone has secrets that they don't want to be known...

Unexpectedly, Jessie shook her head, "Let's just say it... If I don't say it, I think I'm going crazy. Of course, if I say it, others may think I'm crazy..."

The author has something to say: class is over (I thought it would be a high temperature holiday...
