[Zhongyingmei] The little angels of the big ones

At 1:38 a.m., the drowsy Rosa was awakened by a strange group of men composed of FBI agents, Manhattan police, and Alexander Luthor's bodyguards.

"Missing? Do you mean missing? Alexander Luthor?" Rubbing her eyes, Rosa, still feeling dazed, looked at the group of people standing in front of her.The leaders were David Rossi from BAU and Little Doctor Reid. Standing beside the little doctor were 4 or 5 tall men in black suits who were not law enforcement officers; Manhattan police officers in uniform were standing there.

"Mr. Luther is here to bring you dinner this afternoon." One of the bodyguards asked anxiously, "Miss Watson, is Mr. Luther here?" He is the head of Luther's security team.

"Of course not." Rosa shook her head, trying to regain consciousness, "Why is he at my house?" Luther disappeared?How is this possible.

"Can you let us go in and take a look?" After finishing speaking, the tall bodyguard turned around and motioned for several of his men to break in.

"What do you want to do?!" Of course Rosa refused.At the same time, the two profilers of BAU immediately stopped the bodyguards' reckless behavior. "Mr. Walker! Please wait!" Rossi immediately stood in front of Rosa and helped her block several tall bodyguards.

"Rosa." Reid took this opportunity to explain what happened to Rosa, "We are assisting the New York police in investigating a serial murder case. The timing of Alexander Luthor's disappearance is very delicate. We suspect that he may be the one we are investigating. Kidnapped by serial killer on track."

"Miss Watson, we are also sorry to disturb you so late." Rossi turned around and took Rhett's words, "But the time is really tight. Can you let us in first?"

Rosa hesitated, "Uh...not so many people."

"Me and Rhett, and this Mr. Walker." Rossi said quickly.

"...Come in." Rosa let the door open.

"Alexander Luthor is missing?" Rosa, who barely recovered her spirits after washing her face with cold water, sat on the sofa wearing a coat, "And you think I'm the last person to see him?" The one who is determined to kill After becoming Superman, the world will be ruled forever, ah, no, Luthor who ruled the metropolis is missing?

Or kidnapped by a serial killer?

Which serial killer is so afraid of death?Aren't you afraid of being tied into the laboratory by Luther?

"Yes." Both Rhett and Rosie could see that the little girl in front of them seemed not in a hurry to say anything about Luther's disappearance, but instead had a little... schadenfreude?

"Miss Watson, when did my husband leave your place?" Walker suppressed his anger.As Luther's confidant, he naturally knew what his boss meant for the little girl in front of him.Although he didn't understand why Mr. Luthor had to wrong him to like such a heartless little girl who didn't care when he heard that the boss was missing, Walker's good professionalism still allowed Walker to sit firmly on the sofa.

#晋江APP: Be careful what you say and I will tell you!Be careful I will make you kneel down and call grandpa! #

"I haven't seen him at all since we separated at school." What did it mean when Luther left her?Didn't Luthor go back to Metropolis after leaving school? "The last time I saw him was at school, around 2 p.m., there was a video on the Internet, it was the video of him and Iron Man." Rosa shook her head, "After that Luther left, my friend sent me back I haven't seen him alone." Is Luthor's disappearance a conspiracy planned by himself or is it really an accident?

But who is capable of kidnapping Alexander Luthor?

"Sir, he came here to bring you dinner today before you come back." Walker knew that things were bad.

Luthor, who was just released from prison by S.H.I.E.L.D. today, was not discouraged after experiencing the unexpected incident of "two tech tycoons kneeling and courting" at Columbia University.After clearing his mind in the car, Luthor, who had amazing recovery ability, called his confidant bodyguard, that is, Walker.

After that, Walker drove behind his boss and was in charge of being a coolie—helping Luthor carry all kinds of delicious things he bought back into the car.

After Walker's trunk was completely filled, Luthor reluctantly stopped his own shopping and went back home.Then, Walker was ordered to find a big cardboard box, and Luther put all kinds of delicious things in it. Finally, Walker carried the box again and helped his boss put the cardboard boxes full of snacks and fruits in an upright manner. In front of the house of the girl my boss likes.

So far, all of Walker's tasks have been completed, and he can retire.

Luther, who had already changed into another light-colored suit, was standing at the door happily, waiting for Rosa to go home.

Walker, who successfully completed the task, drove the boss's sports car back to the hotel alone.When Luther hadn't come back at night, Walker was quite proud——

How about the superheroes of the Avengers for the face value, brains, figure, wealth and status of your husband?Wasn't it taken down by his own boss!

The naive Walker always thought that Luther had successfully stayed at Rosa's place.

Until half an hour ago, he suddenly received a distress signal from his boss on his mobile phone.After trying to contact him again, Walker discovered to his horror that something had happened to Mr.

Immediately leading people to Rosa's apartment, Walker and his party collided with the police because they were too domineering. Then, Walker learned the details of the serial murders in New York.

That's why they showed up at the door of Rosa's house together.

"...I didn't see him." Rosa shook her head, denying Walker's speculation that Luther stayed behind, "When I came back, I saw a cardboard box at the door, but I didn't see Luther." Did something really happen to Luther?

"Where's that box?" Rosie asked.

"On the terrace." Rosa pointed to the heavy curtains in the living room. "I just opened it to check the contents and put it on the terrace. I haven't touched anything inside." How dare she eat it Something unknown.

Walker immediately got up and went with Rosie to the terrace to get the box back.

"This box is much lighter." Walker tore off the seal of the box again, "... most of the contents inside are gone." Terribly.

"But it was like this when I moved in." Rosa moved closer to the box, "Here, it's just these boxes of strawberries, a few bags of snacks, and a box of pasta." There are very few things in the huge box.

When Rosa opened the box, she complained that Luthor must have a conspiracy for being so stingy.

"Mr. Walker, when did you and Mr. Luther send this box?" Rossi asked the time.

"4:55 p.m.," Walker said with certainty.

"I came back at 5:20." Rosa frowned. Is there only 25 minutes between her and Luther?

"Could it be that something was stolen?" Reid checked the box, "Garcia, I need you to investigate the surveillance video of this building and its surroundings." He called his companion at the headquarters. "Rosa, besides this box, did you notice any other abnormalities when you came back?" It has been verified by them that the number of victims who died at the hands of this serial killer has risen to 7 people. Find Alexander Luthor in time, and the number is bound to increase.

But Alexander Luthor obviously didn't fit the type of potential victim they wrote...

"There's a note." Rosa took out a small notebook from the drawer of the coffee table, and handed the note that came with the box to Rhett. "It should be written by Luthor, and it's on the box."

"It's Mr.'s handwriting." Walker's face sank.

"Mr. Walker, please calm down." Rossi and Rhett exchanged a embarrassed look.The most feared thing about this kind of vicious serial murder is that it will involve the rich and powerful like Alexander Luthor. "Even if you search Manhattan with your people at this time, you may not be able to find your boss." Rossi said very seriously.If the people in the Lex Group act recklessly, I'm afraid that Alexander Luthor will be in danger.

"Mr. Walker, instead of you looking around with people in vain, you might as well choose to trust the police investigation." Reed quickly continued, "Compared to you, we are better at dealing with this type of serial killer. We have nothing to do with it." Finding the destination is a waste of manpower and material resources, it is better to act immediately after the clues are collected, what do you think?"

Walker stood up slowly. "Detective Rossi, our people will not hinder the police investigation." After all, it is the bodyguard next to the duplicity Luthor, Walker also has the demeanor of his own boss, "But I have to make some preparations. .”

"Of course."

Because Alexander Luthor was last seen in front of his house, Rosa had to accept the FBI's investigation whether he wanted to or not.

She had already changed her clothes and sat on the sofa, watching the New York policemen busy at the door and in the corridor.

"Rosa, can you tell us how you met Alexander Luthor?" JJ sat on one side with a soft voice.Understanding the victim also helps them understand the killer.

"Uh... the situation is a bit complicated." Rosa bit her lips, "We are... Luther... We just met a few days ago. At that time, I went to dinner with my friends, and Luther... came to say hello .” By the way, he knelt down and called Dad.

"Sir fell in love with Miss Watson at first sight." Walker, who was standing behind the sofa, took the conversation, "That's why I went to Columbia University today." He glanced at Rosa.

Rosa understood.Of course, the topic of Avengers and Infinity Gems cannot be casually discussed. Not to mention that she doesn’t want to be known as a member of Avengers, even Luthor would not want to be known that the president of Lex Group engaged in illegal experiments and was arrested by S.H.I.E.L.D. News - Lex Group is a multinational technology company. "That's it." She nodded, affirming Walker's words.

"Miss Watson, Mr. Walker, the investigation of the victim can help us better study the criminal's crime pattern, and then catch the murderer." Hotchner stood on the other side, mercilessly tearing down the relationship between Rosa and Walker. Lie, "I hope you don't hide anything. Mr. Luthor's life is at stake. No matter what you hide, I hope you can tell the truth."

The momentum of the BAU boss is still very strong.

Rosa licked her lips, but didn't answer.

"Sir?" At this time, Garcia called, "The surveillance system of that building shows signs of being hacked, and all surveillance videos from yesterday and the day before yesterday have been cleared." The crackling sound of the keyboard rang through the earphones .

"Garcia, can the surveillance video be restored?" Hochner looked back at the two witnesses who were clearly hiding something, feeling a headache.

"Yes, but I need a little time." Garcia gave an affirmative answer, "But now I have successfully recovered a surveillance record at the door of the apartment, and now I will send the image to you."

"very good."

……

"Luther, is he throwing something?" Rosa looked strangely at the surveillance screen at the door of her apartment building.Alexander Luthor held a lot of delicious things in his arms, and then threw them all... into the trash can.

"Mr. bought those." Walker, who had mobilized all the forces of the Lex Group in New York, stood behind everyone with his chest folded.

"Detective Hotchner, we found those things downstairs." A police detective walked in, "Some of the things that Luthor threw away were picked up, and the rest were in the trash can."

"Let's seal it up for now." That's what Hotchner said, but Hochner knew that those things that were thrown away were not clues at all. "Mr. Walker, do you know why Luther threw away those things?" Most of the things he bought and gave away were thrown away. What was Luther thinking?

"I don't know." Walker shook his head, he didn't know what his husband was thinking.

"Hi, guys," Rhett frowned and thought for a while, then looked back at the big cardboard box that was placed on the living room rug, "I think I might know why Alexander Luthor threw things away. "Walking to the cardboard box, Rhett leaned over to check it out.

"Mr. Walker, you said that Luther didn't write a note to Rosa when you left, right?" After getting Walker's affirmative answer, the little doctor pointed to an inconspicuous hole on the side of the box, "Rosa, you said that the box The seal is very loose, isn't it?"

"Yes." Rosa nodded.

"I think Alexander Luthor might want to get into the box." Redby scratched the size of the box, "He can barely get in with a box of this volume, the loose seal and the small hole are for getting in from the inside of the box." It can come out and be used for ventilation." The little doctor said surprisingly.

"Get into the box?!" Walker couldn't believe that his boss would do such a stupid thing. "It's impossible." Luthor's brainless fans resolutely refused to believe that their idol would do that.

"...It's a bit unbelievable." Rosa twitched the corners of her mouth, and felt that Dr. BAU's deduction was a bit out of Luthor's personality.

#晋江APP: Rosa sauce, you have no position to say that about Little Angel Reid, Luthor’s character design is so collapsed that even his mother doesn’t know him→_→#

"Sir", Garcia's call came in on time at this time, "All the surveillance videos have been recovered, and I will send the files to you now."

……

Thanks to the efforts of Garcia, a BAU technical analyst, the maliciously deleted surveillance video of Rosa's apartment building finally appeared in front of everyone.

The place on the screen is the entrance of Rosa's apartment.I saw Walker bent slightly towards his boss after putting down the huge cardboard box, and then he turned around and walked into the elevator and left.

Alexander Luthor, who was left behind, first leaned against Rosa's door to straighten his tie, then turned around and walked to the elevator door as if remembering something, and fiddled with his hair against the elevator door.

At this time, the time displayed on the surveillance video was 5 o'clock.

Luther stayed alone at Rosa's door for 5 minutes.

Suddenly, Luther, who had returned to stand beside the box, stared at the box and frowned, and then he started to act.

"Sir, he..." Walker felt that the lighthouse guiding his life had completely collapsed at this moment.On the surveillance screen, Alexander Luthor walked around the packed cardboard box twice. After looking at it for a while, he squatted down to unpack the box, and then took out the contents one by one.

Luther didn't stop until the box was almost empty.Seems very happy with his work.After looking at it again, Luther raised his own long legs, and...

Stepped into the box.

Did he really want to put himself in the box? !

Rosa was almost dumbfounded.

"So the stuff was thrown away by Alexander Luthor voluntarily to make room for it." JJ sat beside Rosa, feeling a little complicated.

"It's so romantic." Emily couldn't help but sigh.

BAU and Walker turned their attention to Rosa who was sitting on the sofa and watching the surveillance screen at the same time.Mr. Luthor's boss is very romantic, but unfortunately, the girl he wanted to confess to was not moved at all.

#Are the girls now so hard-hearted? #

The monitoring screen continues.I have actually measured how much space I need to get into the cardboard box and seal the box from the inside. Luthor went downstairs carrying the extra things. From another monitoring screen, you can see that Luthor It was 5:10 when Ser returned after throwing everything away.

It was 10 minutes before Rosa came home.

At this time, Rosa, who was concentrating on watching the surveillance video, finally found out what the disobedience she had had since just now was. "That potted plant." Rosa pointed to the potted plant with only a few green leaves exposed just in front of the fire escape door, "The position of that potted plant is wrong." The potted plant should be placed on the other side of the corridor, so How could a large potted plant be placed in front of the fire escape door?

"The leaves just moved." Hotchner and his colleagues looked at each other, and then played the surveillance video backwards.

"Stop." Rossi signaled JJ to press the pause button, "This potted plant has been here, and the leaves also moved at 3:10." He pointed to the monitoring screen.

"Someone is hiding behind the fire door and using potted plants to block their view." Hotchner and Rossi exchanged glances. "Mr. Walker, is Mr. Luthor's itinerary planned before?"

"No." Walker shook his head. "Mr. has always disliked someone planning his itinerary for him. Today's itinerary is all decided temporarily, and I am the only one with him."

"This is not a planned kidnapping of Alexander Luthor." Reid frowned, "This is an ambush." ​​The suspect had already ambushed at the side of the corridor.

"And the prisoner's target is not Alexander Luthor who came suddenly." JJ looked at the little girl sitting beside him, "His target is Rosa."

Rosa is the one who lives here.

"What?" Rosa opened her mouth, too surprised to speak.

"What did Luther find?" Emily motioned everyone to continue watching.On the surveillance screen, the man who had packed his clothes and boxes and was about to get in raised his head at the last moment and looked at the door of the fire escape.

Immediately afterwards, Luther stood up straight, closed the lid of the box, and walked slowly towards the fire escape.

At this time, the few green leaves in the corner of the surveillance screen shook.

Luther gradually approached the direction of the fire escape, and gradually walked into the corner of the screen.Immediately afterwards, the figure of Alexander Luthor flashed across the screen and disappeared.

It was 5:15 at this time.

Two seconds later, Luther's figure appeared in the corridor again.Luther, whose suit had been torn from the buttons, turned his back to the surveillance screen and seemed to be fighting with someone.

But the surveillance video failed to capture that person.

After 30 seconds, Luther fell to the ground and was pulled into a corner that could not be captured by the surveillance.Luther, who seemed to have completely lost consciousness, was dragged out of the monitoring screen by a pair of hands grabbing his leg.

Five minutes later, Rosa came home.

"Rosa is the original target." Reid shook his head, Luthor just appeared at an inappropriate time.

"Mister was kidnapped to protect you." Walker stood in front of Rosa with terrifying eyes.

Rosa swallowed her saliva, her long-lost conscience finally found a chance to appear on the stage—the little fairy must have a conscience too!

"Hey, look." Reid pointed to the surveillance screen again, "The prisoner seems to have put something in that potted plant." The green leaves on the screen shook violently after Rosa entered the door.

"Go and see!"
