I'm innocent [Comprehensive British American]

Bud struggled to crawl on the ground, and the blanket under his body scratched his naked/exposed flesh and blood. He was panting violently, and groaned/groaned in pain from time to time.

The lights in the room were turned off, the curtains were drawn tightly, it was pitch black without any light, and there was no other sound, except for the unhurried footsteps behind him, approaching him step by step.

"What else do you know, Bud." Qiu Chengke wiped the dagger that was still smeared with flesh with a handkerchief, stepped on Bud's ankle, and asked slowly again, "Speak, Bud, are you dumb?"

"I have already said that the headquarters of the great collector is in Tibet... let me go... please!" Bud weakly scratched Qiu Chengke's boots, trying to climb to the door not far away, as long as he gets closer, Agents outside could hear his cries for help.

Qiu Chengke tilted his head and seemed to be thinking about the authenticity of the content he provided. He raised his foot in silence for a moment, "The information you provided is very valuable. I'm sorry Bud, but my extreme methods have caused you harm."

If it was normal, Bud would definitely think of a better way to get rid of Qiu Chengke, and even tease him, but now Bud has no energy to think.

Qiu Chengke pulled out his nails, nailed a few nails on his legs and feet, and dragged him to walk on the ground. Bud was so tormented by the pain that he was about to go crazy.

In the darkness, Bard could vaguely see the gate not far ahead. He accelerated his crawling speed, and his dull brain realized that something was wrong, but now he just wanted to get out of here.

Just when he was about to touch the door, Qiu Chengke suddenly said, "I regret it, I think you didn't tell the truth."

Immediately afterwards, he grabbed Bud's ankle and dragged him into the room. Bud screamed, scratched the blanket frantically, and was dragged back to the bathroom by Qiu Chengke.

Qiu Chengke turned on the light, hugged the naked/naked Bud, pinched his chin to make him look in the mirror, and said softly to his ear, "Let me think about how I should punish you, look at you now , how pitiful, oh, I remembered, you said that you really wanted to peel off my skin, how about you feel it for me first?"

With that said, Qiu Chengke fixed Bud, took out a dagger, and cut Bud's head, whispering to him like a lover, "Don't worry, I promise you won't die."

"I said, the future will last forever."

………………

A week later, the agents took Bud out of the safe house for a secret interrogation and sent him straight to a mental hospital.

Rhett put the freshly poured coffee on the table, and asked suspiciously, "Is Bud crazy?"

"Obviously." Morgan grinned and said, "Psychiatric experts have identified him, and now he still has suicidal tendencies. Qiu Chengke doesn't know the reason, and there are no obvious wounds on Bud's body, only scratches on his wrists and thighs. It is said that it was because Qiu Chengke didn't hold back."

"If Qiu Chengke did it, he would take care of Bud's wound. Did you find any blood in the safe house?" Rhett couldn't help but think of the way Qiu Chengke hugged him last time, when Qiu Chengke discussed Bud's wound with him that time. At that time, Qiu Chengke's expression was so cold that it was scary.

"Only a small amount of blood was found, it was on Bud's thigh." Morgan frowned and muttered, "Not in the bathroom either, only a small amount of blood was found at the entrance of the sewer."

"The blood stains won't be so clean, did he wrap them with something?"

"The agents didn't find anything on him, and he didn't take anything out of the safe house during this period." Morgan took a sip of coffee, pursed his lips and said, "In short, there are many suspicious things about Qiu Chengke, but we can't find any evidence. Prove that it is related to him, like Bud suddenly went crazy without any signs, he kept muttering about girls, newsstands, and so on, basically unrelated things, but they are all connected by the clues we have found so far. "Cross" and sister's drum."

Garcia, who was passing by to pick up snacks, listened carefully. She blinked and nodded decently.

"Have you thought of anything, Garcia?" Morgan heard the voice and looked back.

"Actually, Rhett can ask Qiu Chengke directly, can't he?" Garcia said confusedly, "I mean asking about clues. No matter why Bud suddenly went crazy, the symptoms of mental illness are delusions, talking to himself. Talking to yourself, after a long time, memory will also become disordered, Qiu Chengke and Bud who went crazy stayed for one night, and may hear some sporadic clues. "

"Ah... well, but why am I asking?" Rhett asked hesitantly, "He has already made a record, and he may not be willing to accept another cross-examination."

This time, not only Garcia and Morgan looked at him, but even Hu Qi, who had been chatting with JJ, turned his head and looked at Reid with a surprised look.

"What...what's the matter?" Rhett took a step back with his arms folded.

Garcia and Morgan looked at each other, and she said hesitantly, "It's just to ask, it's not considered cross-examination, and haven't you already established a relationship with Qiu Chengke? I heard that you are still in the dominant position."

Morgan cooperatively made a kissing gesture, and jokingly said, "Rocker has already told us. Believe me, Rhett, Qiu Chengke will be very happy to accept your cross-examination, and will probably stay with you for one night."

As soon as Morgan's words fell, Hu Qi put on a businesslike attitude and added aloud, "Red is allowed to leave, let's go."

Reid took a deep breath, lowered his head to avoid the playful eyes of his friends, put on his satchel, and walked out, retorting in a low voice, "I'm already an adult, isn't it normal to fall in love?"

When passing by the door, Rhett was patted on the shoulder by Gordon who just came in. He looked at Gordon, and Gordon pursed his lips and said seriously, "Come on, Rhett."

Reid pretended not to understand and walked out quickly. Because of the special period, two agents sent him to Qiu Chengke's house and sat in the car. Reid recalled the last time Qiu Chengke was held down and kissed by him, feeling that It seems that I can really do it myself.

It wasn't until Rhett left that Morgan put away his smile and said worriedly, "Although Qiu Chengke's character is fine, there are still too many doubts about him, and he is too powerful. I'm worried that Rhett will suffer."

"It's rare for Rhett to meet someone he likes, and Qiu Chengke won't hurt Rhett, that's for sure." Hu Qi came over, pulled out a chair and sat down, and said seriously, "Qiu Chengke's life trajectory has suddenly undergone a huge change, but we can't find it out." For any reason, this is what I worry about, the current Qiu Chengke is someone we can trust, if one day he changes without warning like before, what will Reid do at that time."

"Science can't explain his changes, and in psychology, only the dual personality is barely related to his situation. He is like the magic medicine on him, and there is no way to explain it clearly." Gordon took out the document just taken out Put it on the table, "But Qiu Chengke itself is not harmful. We just need to know that Qiu Chengke is our partner and Rhett's lover. Rhett is very good. Whether it is learning or profiling, he has his own principles and judgments." Ability, we should believe that he can handle this problem well."

"Now let's talk about people who are real dangers to society," Gordon said after a pause to make sure everyone was paying attention, before pulling out a few photos from the file "Serial arsonists in Minnesota."

"Between November 11 and December 30, three arson cases took place. The modus operandi was the same, and the targets were all elderly people living alone. It can be basically determined that they were committed by the same person." Gordon continued.

"Three incidents in six days?" Garcia interjected, "Two days on average, which is too frequent."

"The problem is that the three crime locations are far apart. It seems that the murderer spent most of his time traveling." Hu Qi picked up the information and said, "Arsonists will choose places they are familiar with to commit crimes. This hunting range is too wide. It may be Copycat, who is the last victim?"

"College student Berg and his grandmother."

………………

Qiu Chengke wasn't at home, so Reid made a fuss, and went to the bookstore on Third Avenue, where he found Qiu Chengke who was chatting with a customer.

When Rhett opened the door and came in, Qiu Chengke was leaning out of the counter with his upper body, whispering to a beautiful woman.

Qiu Chengke looked up when he heard the wind chime, his eyes lit up when he saw Red, he greeted Red cheerfully, he seemed in a good mood. "Red, I have something to do, you go and sit inside first, I'll be fine soon."

"It's okay, I'll just stand up." Reid walked around the random bookstore, leaning against the bookshelf and looking sideways at the woman.

She has a large frame, wider shoulders than normal women, well-proportioned calf muscles, regular exercise, white hair on her skirt, and pets.

A cup of coffee and a mobile phone are held in the left hand, and the right hand is empty. The right wrist may be injured or needs to be used for more important things at any time.

The corners of her eyes were open, her nose was stiff, and she was wearing a prosthesis. She had a pleasant conversation with Qiu Chengke, but her facial muscles rarely moved, and she had undergone facial wrinkle surgery.

Too much facial surgery and overly beautified makeup make it difficult for Rhett to judge her real age, which makes Rhett a little bit resistant.

Rhett had never met her before, nor heard Qiu Chengke mention this person. Qiu Chengke and her had a very happy conversation, as if they had known each other for a long time and were very familiar with each other.

But the woman's right hand was always close to her satchel, and Qiu Chengke seemed to be lying on the table with his hands in his upper body, but in fact he kept the most offensive state.

The woman looked at Ruide from time to time while talking, Qiu Chengke explained in a low voice, the woman sneered, but didn't look this way again.

After the woman left, Rhett asked suspiciously, "Who is she?"

"A mercenary I met at the border." Qiu Chengke walked out of the counter and locked the door. He took Redla into the lounge and handed him a small cake. Come to repay the favor."

"Favour?" Reid held the small cake and looked back and forth at Qiu Chengke, "What did she pay for it?"

"Information." Qiu Chengke said a little excitedly, "There is information about the Scavenger. The Scavenger is an organization similar to mercenaries, but it is not legal, and it is not listed in the government. It is a privately recruited organization. As for the Great Collector, there is no direct connection between the insiders of the Scavenger.”

"If the information she provided is true, then the internal system of the big collector may be more complicated than we originally expected." Reid put the bag on the sofa beside him, crossing his arms and thinking.

Qiu Chengke looked at Reid quietly, and suddenly heard the wind chimes in the outer room making a soft sound. Qiu Chengke held the dagger at his waist, looked vigilantly at the wooden door of the lounge, and listened carefully, but did not hear anything else. sound.
