"It's you!"

Just as Rhett was about to open the door, he heard another scream.But this time he heard the emotion, and it was the scream of excitement and joy, not fear.

He let out a long sigh of relief, and then pushed open the door, "Trista, what are you doing?"

"Oh... Spencer." Trista knew it was Rhett coming from the voice, she raised her head from a pile of video tapes and CDs, and looked at him through these obstacles, " Isn’t this place full of messy things sent by all kinds of perverts, let me see if there is any truth in it.”

Every year, the FBI receives a lot of letters, many of which claim that he has killed someone and ask the FBI to arrest him.Or send over videos of yourself abusing small animals and adding special effects, pretending to be a serial killer, seeking a sense of presence.But the real incident, probably not even 1%.

Especially after the FBI established the BAU, all these letters will be piled up from the FBI headquarters and various branches to the BAU, and let them analyze whether there are really cases among them.

But there is no time to discern this kind of thing inside BAU, so it can only be piled up in the basement.

Trista learned from Garcia that there is such a place downstairs in the BAU. Since she is now a special consultant hired by the FBI, she should shine and make use of her talent.

She took the initiative to report to the competent department of the FBI, and she moved all kinds of playback equipment to the basement to settle down.

Nearly ten years of video materials have been hoarded here, including video tapes, CDs, and even 3.5-inch floppy disks that are almost equivalent to cultural relics.

Different carriers require different players, and it took her several days just to sort out these materials.

And the subsequent identification of whether it was a prank or a real incident made Trista exhausted physically and mentally. The clumsy jokes always brought their own disgusting pictures and unspeakable neurotic behaviors.There are also many scenes of driving, and Trista really has no way of knowing whether the abusive sexual behavior should be reported to the supervisor.Because she knows that there are some people with special hobbies in this world.

After accepting the baptism of these pictures, she felt that she was about to be reborn.But fortunately, after enduring so much, she finally got something.

One registration was on a DVD mailed seven years ago, recording a murder.

In a closed room, a man in black and a scream mask kills a girl with a knife.Instead of stabbing his victim like many murderers, he slowly pushed the point of the knife into her heart.

The girl was only wearing underwear, and her whole body was bound tightly, unable to move.But he didn't gag her mouth, but made her cry out in despair.

Trista was terrified by this man's cruelty and calmness. Anyone who could slowly torture a person to death without hesitation at all must be an extremely cruel person.

She turned her eyes away several times, but she couldn't forget her duty, so she could only force her to watch.

Judging from the girl's reaction, plus the amount of bleeding and the skin of the wound, Trista confirmed that this was definitely not special effects makeup and acting.When she realized that a life was gone, she couldn't help crying out.

She had seen too few cases to control her emotions.

When she put her eyes on the picture again, she focused on the girl's face.Her tarnished brown eyes were distressing, and Trista's memory was triggered because she had seen the girl.

She cried out excitedly again, the confirmation of the victim's identity is very important.

Before he could fully calm down, Rhett pushed the door open and walked in.

She took the DVD out of the DVD player and handed it to Rhett after installing it, "I'm sure, this is definitely not the first time this person has killed someone."

Rhett took it, and instead of commenting immediately, he found a place to sit down and slipped the disc into the DVD player again.

He knew that Trista's talent in image processing was unrivaled, but she was too jerky when it came to case analysis.So he had to read it himself first, and report to Hotchner after finding enough clues.

When Rhett watched the cruel picture again, Trista rummaged through other video materials. She was choked by the dust and burst into tears, so she could only cover her mouth and nose with her sleeve.

The duration of this video is not long, only [-] minutes. Reid fast-forwarded and watched it, and he was sure that this was a real murder.Just one victim and an incident of unknown background wasn't enough for the BAU to mobilize. The best he could do was turn the video over to the Major Crimes Squad.

"And this!" Trista found a video and handed it to Rhett, "Judging from the handwriting on the envelope, it was written by someone."

"Have you seen it?" Rhett looked at it, and the marks on the cover indicated that she seemed to have just found this disc.

"No." Trista turned around and changed the disc, then sat beside Rhett.

At the beginning of this video, it is in a woods. It seems to be in the evening, and the light is a bit dim.A man walked slowly with a dagger in his hand.

Trista leaned towards Rhett subconsciously, she was really scared.It's much more frightening than watching a horror movie, you don't even know what's going to happen next.And she is very sure that if there is a picture of a murder here, it really means that someone has died.

The man walked to a slightly open area in the woods, the camera lens moved down, and the two saw a human head appearing on the ground.

A man was buried in the ground with only his head outside.Because of the pressure, his face was flushed, his eyes were cloudy, and he was already in a coma.

The man with the knife seemed to chuckle, he picked up the dagger and cut the man's scalp.

His blood spurted out directly, like a fountain.

Trista let out a low cry, she covered her eyes and turned her head away.

Red turned off the DVD player, and Trista's reaction directly confirmed the authenticity of the video.He reached out his hand to comfort her.

But he retracted again, and just reminded softly, "It's over."

"No, no, no." Trista shook her head, and she walked into the pile of materials again, "The disc we are watching now was sent five years ago, within five years, I still have Didn't have time to watch it. Do you think he will be silent in five years?"

"No." Reid walked to her side and sorted out the materials with her.

He and his reading speed, plus her image recognition ability, the two of them work together, and it will not take long to find other related discs from the materials in these large rooms.

The two of them worked in the basement for free in such a tacit understanding. It was not until Trista's alarm clock rang that they realized that it had passed the night.

And the DVDs in their hands have expanded from two to eight.

The author has something to say: There is a live broadcast killer in Cleveland, and it feels like the real BAU team has been dispatched
