Driving in the south direction, since there were no people or vehicles passing by during the period, Yan Xi felt relieved to speed.

If she walked more than ten minutes earlier than her, it would be difficult for her to catch up if there were no accidents, and there was a fork in about three kilometers. If there were no traces, she would not know which direction to follow.

However, the license plate and model have been conveyed to the traffic police, and all points should be prepared, the chance of being discovered is still very high; unless... Yan Yan took the time to study the navigation, unless the person was not going to take the road, but passed through the mountain road .

But that mountain road has been abandoned for a long time, and it requires certain driving skills, otherwise it will easily cause accidents.

Three kilometers is only a short time for a speeding driver, so Yan Xi is now faced with such a fork in the choice.

"Is there any discovery on the other side of the road now? Does Garcia have any traces of that car?" There is no way to choose, just ask other people if there is any progress on that side.

"No, as long as she appears, we will definitely find it immediately; but she should not have entered the range of the monitored road section now." Garcia replied helplessly to Yuxi.

The time left early was enough for her to reach the city, even if she knew she was wanted, but judging from her previous style of doing things, she would still give it a go, right?Could it be... really choose to take the mountain road?

"Yu Xi?"

"Ah! I'm listening." Yu Xi came back to his senses a little bit, "There is still a mountain road to walk here..."

"You don't want to follow over there, do you?"

……

"Spencer Reid, what do you mean? Shouldn't you be tracking the suspect?" Yu Xi's voice was a little lower than usual, and there was a hint of threat in his tone.

"Of course the suspect needs to be tracked, but there are too many variables on that road. We can intercept it in the city center. There is no need to choose that way to be too risky." Of course, the most important thing Reid didn't say was that he was worried about Hotch before. Similarly, although there are only a few cases, the probability of an accident when Yu Xixi acts alone is a bit high.

How could Yan Xi not know what he meant?Although I also know that I am very unlucky in some aspects, I still feel a little unwilling. If she is more cautious, will she still maintain a "high accident rate"?

"I'll be careful. There are basically no vehicles passing by that road, and there was a shower in the early morning. If she walks that way, there will be wheel marks." Yan Xi decided to go and have a look, there are no wheels If there are any traces, she will naturally retreat. If there are any...according to her character, she will still follow the mountain road.

"Besides, I think her current condition may be very bad. If something happens, it may be difficult to find the bones she took away." Actually, maybe this is what she cares more about?

"Forget it, take care of yourself and keep in touch." Reid gave up persuading, and the matter that Yan Xi decided would not be able to pull back ten cows; although it rained in the early morning, it has stopped for such a long time, and the mountain road will not happen Too big a situation.

"OK."

After arriving at the foot of the mountain, Yu Yanxi parked the car aside and got out of the car to check whether there were any obvious traces of cars on the road.

Although this road has been abandoned for a long time, it is not completely empty of traffic, and there are more than one wheel marks left on the ground.

Some helplessly holding a magnifying glass to compare the photos, squatting on the ground to observe indecently; her intuition told her that she should have gone this way, or... don't be so troublesome?Directly from this road to see?

Thinking of this, Yan Yanxi resolutely got into the car again and stepped on the accelerator...

Although it has been a long time since the rainstorm, the shining mountain road without the scorching sun still looks very muddy; it looks like a dual-lane, but the outer guardrail has long since fallen off and is incomplete. As long as the wheel slides to the edge of the mountain, if the collision is severe, the possibility of fading is almost [-]%.

Yu Yuxi was always bold, so she didn't dare to slam on the accelerator at this time, and could only drive forward at a normal speed; after all, she didn't have much experience driving on such mountain roads.

Frowning while driving, Yu Xi found that there were fresh rut marks on the outer driveway, which should be in the same direction as her; but, who would drive a car on such a dangerous road with a damaged guardrail? outside?And there is no sign of reverse traffic ahead of her, so there is no such thing as Birang.

When he was a little distracted, the car body slid sideways, Yan Yu quickly turned the steering wheel a few times to straighten the car body; this kind of place really can't think about problems!

over here?

Yan Yuxi couldn't help frowning, and stopped the car slowly. There were obvious impact marks on a dilapidated guardrail, and from there, the imprint of the wheels was suddenly interrupted.

Can't really go wrong?

After getting out of the car, Yu Yan cautiously approached the guardrail to check. The car seemed to have started to brake suddenly a little ahead, but the braking distance seemed to be insufficient. The speed of the car may have been relatively fast, and the high-speed collision with the guardrail that was originally unreliable or even rotted rushed backwards. into the abyss.

Studying the traces on the road surface, Yu Xi felt that this might account for more than 90.00%.

Standing cautiously on the edge and looking down, he decisively called the others, then took several steps back and entered the safe zone he thought.

"The wheel marks are interrupted here, the guardrail was severely impacted and broken, and there are some scratches on the lower hair..." Reid frowned and muttered to himself, then turned back with some puzzlement, "Why are you standing still?"

This is really not like Yu Xixi's style. Even though there is no body she is "most interested in", she has always been dedicated to her work during working hours. Waiting in the car, the eyes are now looking more at the ground or other directions, but not at the position below the cliff, which is too abnormal!

Yan Yuxi spread her hands helplessly, "I can't help it, I'm afraid of heights." She's just a mortal, and there will always be something to be afraid of, fearing that she has no way to overcome it, and that's all she can do.

"Found it, found the vehicle."

Even this exciting news did not make Yu Xixi move half a step, "Where is the person? Is the person still alive?" There is no way to deal with fear of heights. Now she is not the only one at the scene, so there is no need to bite the bullet Forced myself to face it.

"Dead, it's your job to live." Reid actually said this sentence to test whether Yu Xi's "dedication" would overcome his natural fear.

Taking two small steps forward, and then a small step back, Yu Xi seemed to be still not ready to move after struggling, "Then I'll go back to the lab and wait for the corpse?"

Reid finally understands, if the symptoms of the bones are "weird" or "tragic" enough, Yu Xi decides to ignore her innate fear, "OK, you go back with the team over there first; if the cause of death is not suspicious, we need to close the case gone."

"Close the case?" Yan Yu frowned, as if he had a different opinion on the word "closed".

"something wrong?"

"After the case is closed, everything has nothing to do with us?" Yan Xi asked Reid with some hesitation.

"You want to investigate that girl's case?" Reid saw through Yu Xixi's thoughts, but he didn't understand why she would have such thoughts this time. Usually she is not so...how should I put it?Sentimental?

"It's not... It should be said that I almost know who the murderer is. The murderer back then has not been killed, nor has any physical accident occurred." It is a bit uncomfortable to let the guilty people receive the punishment they deserve.

"You can give the information to some appropriate people in some way." Reid looked at Yu Xixi even more strangely. What happened to people who usually have so many ideas this time?

"That's right." Yan Yu also felt that he had been stupid recently, and he hadn't even thought of such a simple thing.

"Does this case bother you?" If not, it would be impossible to explain Yu Xi's abnormality.

"It's not the case itself that bothers me, it's just..." Yu Xixi suddenly stopped in the middle of speaking, "Some things are unclear, anyway, let's close the case first, and it's not a big deal on my side." Some things started to be described It didn't seem to be that easy, and she was not so willing to narrate, "I'll go back with those over there first, let them send the corpse to the laboratory as soon as possible."

"OK." Reid looked at Yu Xixi's back and thought for a while, since when did something go wrong?The more you try to cover it up, the more obvious it will be.

laboratory--

I pressed the recorder a long time ago, checked the surface and then opened the body... Everything was carried out according to the normal autopsy process. The cause of death is easy to find, and the injuries on the body can also be well explained according to the scene at that time.

Turning off the recording, Yu Xi took off his mask and muttered to himself, "It seems that there is nothing suspicious about the cause of death."

"Is there a conclusion?" Reid pushed the door to ask the result as soon as Yu Xi finished the autopsy.

Yu Xixi explained in detail the reasons for the corresponding wounds, and Reid did not raise any doubts about it, "It seems that the case can be closed."

"The case can be closed, but..." Taking off his gloves, Yu Yuxi sighed quietly, "But I think there are many things that I still don't understand. The murderer we suspect is dead, but we don't have conclusive evidence. If she doesn't appear After the car accident was handed over to the court, the defense lawyers would probably let her be acquitted." She has seen this kind of thing not uncommonly, and whenever it happens, it will always make people feel powerless.

"There is still some finishing work, tell me in detail on the way back." Reid hesitated for a moment, looking a little reluctant.

Yan Yuxi narrowed her eyes, was she despised just now? "Hey." Laughed softly, laughing until Reid's hair was creeping before he started to organize things. Some people have to pay for their actions at some point, not necessarily now, but also in a long time.
