Chapter 54 Proposal

The shot rang out, and Dorian clutched his chest, watching in disbelief at the blood gushing from the wound.

The echo of the gunshot was still echoing in Jessie's ears. She shook her head and saw several people flashing out of the room. "It came just in time."

"Too nervous, the shot missed." Elle blew off the smoke from the muzzle, walked up to Jessie, leaned down and rubbed the little doctor's hair, seeing her tired eyes, couldn't help but embrace her lovingly inside.

"I should really find a rope to tie you up." She hugged Jessie tightly, "I'm afraid you might get lost."

"I was soft-hearted for a moment, but in the end...it fell on your hands." Dorian lay on the ground, with unwillingness in his tone.

"It caused her family to be ruined, and you still feel that you are raising tigers?" Jessie squatted in front of Dorian, watching him, "You still have to ask God if you are not soft-hearted, those people who were killed by you have been waiting for this day for a long time gone."

JJ took out the recording pen from Emily's pocket and fiddled with it, "Everything you said is here, the latest product, even the arrogance in your tone is clearly recorded. You can leave with confidence."

"You don't have to worry about the documents." Megan followed Hotch, pointing to Rossi, "Our boss has already agreed, BAU has taken over this cold case, and you are the murderer."

Dorian stared hard at the group and died.

"Isn't it too cheap to let him die like this?" Elle touched her chin, "I should have tortured him slowly, one by one."

Morgan and Reid couldn't help shivering, oh my god... so fierce?

Seeing Hotch's frowning, JJ comforted him, "Don't worry, I'll write the report, this case will have a complete ending even with the unsolved case 25 years ago."

The corner of Elle's mouth opened into an arc, "Then thank you."

The case finally came to an end, Jessie only felt her head getting heavier and heavier, her feet staggered, and she fell into Elle's arms.

"Jessie?"

"I'm fine." Jessie waved her hand, not intending to get up from Elle, "I'm just tired."

"Sleep for a while, just a little while."

Jessie slept for a whole day in this short meeting, and was very concerned about how she got on the plane, how she got off the plane, how she got home...a series of things.She had no memory at all, and when she woke up again, it was already night, she was lying on the bed at home, Elle was hugging herself, her eyes were closed, and her eyelashes were slightly shaking.

Jessie knew she wasn't asleep.Reaching out to wrap her around her, his chin lightly rubbed against Elle's shoulder.

"Jessie." The person in her arms murmured softly, rubbing her arms for a long time, then looked up at the little doctor tearfully. "I'm left with only you now." The glazed eyes flickered in the twilight, Jessie felt uncomfortable, and kissed her forehead.

"It's over, I'm here, I'll be with you."

"The last thing my father and I did was quarrel." Elle recalled her willful self when she was young, with a bit of bitterness. "Now that I have finally avenged him, I can't be happy."

"You have to believe that you have always been his pride." Jessie held Elle's cold hand, "He will be pleased."

"When I was young, my dad told me that when someone who loved you deeply disappeared from this world, one star in the sky would dim." Jessie heard Elle's voice ringing in her ears, "After a long time, I I dare not look at the stars. But after I met you, I was thinking about it."

"Will there be another star in the sky?"

Jessie smiled and kissed Elle's eyes, "Okay, find a time, let's go to the suburbs to watch the stars."

Elle found a comfortable position, put her arms around the little doctor's neck obediently, and nodded. Jessie sighed softly when she heard the breathing in her arms gradually stabilized.

It was snowing outside the window, Jessie hugged Elle who was sleeping deeply, and opened her eyes.

She wanted to give a home to the insecure little guy in her arms.

This idea is getting stronger.

In the blink of an eye, it was Christmas again, and the whole city was wrapped in snow, immersed in the joy of the festival.

In the office, Rossi toyed with a gold bracelet, "Christmas again in 20 years."

"How does it feel?" Hotch asked Rossi as he came in with his bag.I don't know if it was an illusion, but the corners of his mouth quickly raised with a smile.

"It feels pretty good." Rossi shook the gadget in his hand, looked up to see Strauss who hurried upstairs, "Erin, what's your Christmas wish?"

"You guys don't cause trouble for me, I will feel that every day is a holiday." Strauss was angry when he thought of the group of people going to the Brooklyn police station under the pretense of their own names a few days ago, and he was so close in their eyes Human feelings plus mean and tricky?

She glanced at Hotch and Rossi before storming into the office.

"Christmas is originally a religious festival. In the nineteenth century, the popularity of Christmas cards and the appearance of Santa Claus made Christmas gradually popular. After Christmas celebration customs became popular in Northern Europe, Christmas decorations combined with the northern hemisphere winter also appeared." Encyclopedia Throughout the book, Reid is again talking about the origin of Christmas in the office.

"Christmas spread to Asia in the middle of the nineteenth century. Japan, Korea, and China were all influenced by Christmas culture." Emily added, "Do your homework in advance, Reid."

"Happy holidays, nerds~" Morgan sat down at the desk, "Have you figured out where to party tonight?"

Jessie rested her chin on the desk in a daze, thinking about her proposal plan.

Time, place... It's not a problem, how to get Elle away is the top priority.

Looking around, she locked her eyes on the door of Hotch's office.

In just one morning, Elle watched the people sitting around her come and go from Hotch's office, first her own little doctor, then Morgan, Reid, JJ, Emily... Even Gracia went, and she hung up on the phone when she went out. A mysterious smile.

While she was lost in thought, Hotch called her name, "Elle, come in."

Elle got up obediently, and the moment she closed the door, several people in their seats looked at Jessie with ambiguous eyes.

The little doctor's ears turned red in disappointment. "Don't laugh..."

"Don't laugh, don't laugh." JJ and Gracia slipped out of the office, "We will definitely help out tonight."

"I promise I won't bother you." Morgan joked, remembering the predicament in the hospital last time.

Jessie's ears became redder, and she looked at Hotch's office, taking several deep breaths to relieve her tension.

Straight male boss—Hotch thought for a long time under Megan's remote guidance on the phone, and found a very lame reason, "You and JJ are going to visit the nearby cathedral this afternoon."

"Church? Visiting?" Elle felt that this was not something BAU should do.

Hotch also saw Elle's puzzlement, "It's like this, uh... that church is located in the city center and is in the middle of a busy city. It was attacked by unknown people in advance, and Christmas is coming soon. Get some people to make sure it's safe so it doesn't cause a riot..." He spoke slowly, "Emily has other things to do, and I really can't get away."

Hotch doesn't know how to lie, but Elle didn't notice anything unusual, as long as the task assigned by the superior is completed, it's the distance...

It's a bit far... I don't know if I can come back to accompany Jessie.

"Wait for me at home tonight." Elle whispered into the little doctor's ear, "I may have to come back later."

Jessie suppressed the excitement and ecstasy in her heart, and nodded calmly.

After Elle and JJ finished their work, it was already six o'clock in the afternoon. In December, it was getting dark and early. Elle looked at the dark sky and thought of her little doctor.

"It's getting dark." JJ straightened his wind-torn hair, "Let's go back."

Elle nodded, and when she was about to leave, a strange sound came from the lawn not far from the church.Although not many people came to this church, it was located in the city center after all. In order to avoid an attack, Elle and JJ glanced at each other, and walked quickly to the back of the church to investigate.

After walking a few steps, she saw a few exquisite small candles on the path, stretching forward, the candles flickering along the way.

"JJ, look..." Elle turned around strangely, trying to call JJ forward, but when she turned her head, there was no one behind her.

"JJ?" Elle's heart sank, she subconsciously clenched the gun at her waist, and continued to grope forward following the guidance of the candles on the ground.

Quite emotional...unknown person?

Jessie stood in the wind and stomped her feet, looking forward to see if anyone was coming.

"Do you really think this will work?" Morgan set up the venue on the lawn and tied up the balloons. "How do I feel, with Greenaway's character, you will be knocked down by her as a suspect..."

"It's like the first time we met." The little doctor nodded, "It's very memorable."

"..." What kind of brain circuit. Morgan inflated the balloon silently.

"Here we come..." JJ ran up from the side path, "Have you arranged it yet?"

"Almost." Rossi laughed. "Let's hide first."

Elle moved forward along the path, and the surrounding scenery became more and more exquisite. She held her breath and stared at the surrounding decorations.It's kind of like Christmas atmosphere, and kind of not.

It’s weird.

"When I crossed here on the first day, I was terrified. Later, in the shipyard in Seattle, I was punched by a girl as a suspect..." Elle looked up and saw that she was wearing a formal suit. , silly Jessie.

She didn't speak, just smiled as Jessie continued.

"When I met her, I became atropine. I thought I would never have anything to do with her, but when she opened the window and entered my office, I couldn't hide my inner excitement. Later, I knew, I fell in love with her What makes me happiest is that she loves me too. I want to be with her." Jessie pursed her lips, "I want to know if I can use my ability to change the doomed ending in that world. It seems to be working, right." She took out the ring she had prepared for a long time from her pocket, "I can't wait until everything is over and the dust settles, the moonlight is beautiful tonight, I want to watch the stars with you. "

"will you marry me?"

Elle smiled and stared at the little doctor in front of her. Her undulating chest betrayed her nervousness. She approached step by step, looked at Jessie's blushing face, pouted and stretched out her hand, "If you don't propose, I will tie you up." to the church."

Jessie looked into those glazed eyes and smiled slightly, took her hand, put on the ring, pulled her into his arms, and kissed her deeply.

"What does atropinization mean?" A group of people watched from the side, puzzled by the medical terms that popped up suddenly.

"It's a symptom of poisoning." Emily put her hand on JJ's shoulder, "The main symptoms are rapid heart rate, flushed face, and mild restlessness." She looked at the two hugging each other in the twilight, "Oh...in short That is, the romance of a medical student."

The author has something to say: Congratulations to the little doctor for his successful marriage proposal, happy mention of Elle, a further step on the road of counterattack.

Elle: "Do you think you can get rid of the pain if the proposal is successful?"

Little Doctor: ...

Elle: "Forget it, let you attack once..."
