Just as this handsome, upper-class gentleman who looked like a British aristocrat from the Victorian era left, Gideon's cell phone rang inside.

"Guys, we have a case."

They must get to the Southern District of New York as soon as possible.

On the other side, Garcia has already taken out his laptop, and the printer in the presidential suite has started to work.

"In Connecticut, a girl was kidnapped. Her boyfriend was shot in the face and shot in the car. The suspect also made her write a letter to her father."

If it was just an ordinary kidnapping and extortion case, the police would definitely not be alerted at this time.The problem was that the girl's father was a well-known local lawyer, and the family had entered the witness protection program years earlier.The victim and her twin sister had bodyguards with them from an early age.If the victim hadn't rejected the bodyguard a few years ago, she wouldn't have had an accident this time.

As soon as she got her letter, her father reported the case. In view of the special situation of the girl's family, the local police transferred the case to BAU so quickly.

"Eight o'clock tomorrow night, no, it's already one o'clock in the morning. So it should be eight o'clock tonight."

Garcia quickly turned on the computer, and the letters displayed on the screen were the letters sent by the suspect. The leftmost one has three brown marks on the lower right.

"this is……"

"After testing, it contains salt."

Gideon whispered, "Her tears."

"Yes. The letter was dictated by the suspect and written by the victim. It has been handwritten."

Garcia quickly slid the mouse to make the string of YOU overlap each other, and the data swiped across, confirming the truth of the statement.

It was indeed the victim's handwriting.

"Her sister Cheryl also confirmed that it was written by her sister Trish."

On the other side, Little Doctor Rhett has already started to chant softly:

- You must follow instructions.

- You follow instructions carefully, and you do so for your daughter's safety.

—You have to wait for the phone call.You have to answer the phone at eight o'clock in the evening.

— You should write down the instructions and follow them.

Ellie said: "General kidnapping and ransom letters will ask the victim not to contact the police. But this letter didn't mention it. It seems that he is looking forward to our arrival."

Gideon said: "Then, we should not let him down even more."

The BAU plane was already on its way, Garcia had his laptop with him, and they would be able to leave in no time.

Morgan noticed that Zhao Changqing hesitated to speak.

"Hey, CoolGuy, don't worry, we won't leave you behind. Maybe, you can try? Come with us to the crime scene."

Morgan was sure that by the time they arrived at the scene, the scene should have been cleaned up.Therefore, if they dare to go now, at most they can only see blood stains on the ground.For little ones, it won't be a big shock.

More importantly, the little guy once said that he was able to communicate with the little animals around him and let them help him find the suspect.

The scene of the crime was a gravel road with trees on both sides. As for small animals, maybe one or two of them witnessed the murder.

I have already said before that the little guy should be tested.However, how can that kind of simulated test be more valuable than a real case with live ammunition?

If the little guy can find out the whereabouts of the victim in this case, even without Gideon's recommendation, Hodge will recruit the little guy.

Zhao Changqing shook his head and said, "That's not why I frowned." He stretched out his finger, pointing to a certain sentence on the screen and said, "Why is this sentence emphasized so many times? 'You must follow the instructions.' In just five sentences, this sentence was repeated three times. Although it is not completely consistent, it is too eye-catching. It seems that he is the relevant person in the first place and deliberately keeps out of it to avoid being discovered."

Gideon said, "Go on, go on."

Gideon encouraged.

It's nice that the little guy has ideas.

Repeat the content more than three times, it is indeed a key.

Zhao Changqing tilted his head and said, "Ai Li said that this letter is different from ordinary kidnapping and extortion letters."

"Yes. A typical kidnap-and-ransom letter will ask the victim not to contact the police, and will say something like 'If you contact the police, you will never see your daughter'."

Allie said so.

"So, this guy doesn't care if the victim's family calls the police or if the BAU gets involved? Why? He's strong, confident, even unhurried. He feels like he has everything under control. , he doesn’t care if the victim’s family has notified the police, or that the victim and her relatives have always been under his control.”

It was quiet all around.

The victim and her relatives were under his control the whole time?

This is a hidden message.

Rhett began to read the kidnapping and ransom letter softly again.

"This letter is full of YOU, YOU, YOU,..."

Morgan said: "Authoritative."

Zhao Changqing said: "Yes, he is repeatedly emphasizing his authority. He is determined and confident, and he feels like an old hand, or else, he is someone who is used to dealing with these things. Although it is a bit impolite to say so, I will treat the victim like her. List all the people that the family can contact, and then eliminate the suspects one by one. This person, he gave me the feeling that whether the victim contacted the police or not was not important to him, because he controlled the victim's family. Even with the BAU involved. So, here comes the question. What kind of circumstances would make the suspect feel that even after the BAU intervened, he still had control over the case, the victim and her family."

Ellie said: "He is monitoring the victim's family! Their every move is under his control."

"No, when something like this happened, Mr. Davenport's bodyguards were immediately investigated!"

Morgan said: "It may also be the police who contacted them."

Zhao Changqing shook his head and said, "It's not just that. People who have contact with the Davenport family, even... wait a minute, he said that the victim should answer the phone at [-] o'clock in the evening, so, is it like the show on TV? We will Tracking his phone with a bunch of machines?"

"of course."

"So, is it possible that someone has access to these devices? Have they been rigorously searched. I mean, if it is someone inside the police, then if these machines have been tampered with..."

Garcia said: "Leave it to me. I will do a cross-comparison."

Zhao Changqing said: "Maybe we can go to the scene of the crime and take a look." Zhao Changqing pointed to one of the photos and said, "There are trees here, maybe other small animals saw it at night."
