"There are still some here." Hotch stood behind Yu Xixi, but his eyes fell on the table below, where there were a few photos that were not posted on the wall, "Are these two photos from last week?" of?"

Yan Yu looked down and followed Hotch's line of sight. Judging from the clothes in the photo, it should be from a certain day last week. The figure in the photo is not particularly clear, and there should be some problems with the shooting angle.

After being fired, you need to follow up to take these daily photos. Because you are not used to this, some photos are blurred?

There are also some thumbtacks and other tools scattered on the table. I originally wanted to pin the photos, but suddenly something happened and I didn't have time to clean it up?

"The car keys are still there."

"Go and have a look at his car." Hotch felt that Yu Xi's professional habits were better than all of them, as if he had put on gloves since entering the door.

"Does this apartment have a parking garage?" The main reason is that the apartment is too old and there don't seem to be many people living there, so Yan Xi has such doubts.

"Yes, there's one underground." Hotch already knew all of this when he entered.

"OK." He took the car keys, and prepared to go to the underground parking garage with Hotch to look for the car; looking at the photos on the wall, Yu Xi really felt that if he looked at it again, he didn't know if he wanted to smash the wall or what.

Because I have experienced it myself, I can fully understand what it feels like for CC to be targeted by such a person; Probably only she knows what it feels like for a moment.

"If it was done by this person, your sister's life will not be in danger for the time being; if it is related to an economic dispute, she will not be in danger as long as she does not do things that excessively anger the kidnapper before the kidnapper makes a request."

What if the kidnapper wasn't one of the two now suspected?Just a psycho killer they haven't found yet?

But Yu Xi didn't say these words out, she is not an overly pessimist, and she doesn't want Hotch's kind comfort to be useless; and in terms of probability, these two possibilities are indeed the biggest now.

"Is this the one?" With the car key, I successfully found the assistant's car in the underground parking garage, but it was so easy to find because there were not many cars in the underground parking garage, and among the few vehicles, this An SUV is more conspicuous.

"This seat..." After observing for a while, Yu Xi got into the driver's seat, but the feeling of being too "harmonious" made her curl her lips silently. The assistant should be relatively tall. Why does the position of the driver's seat feel the same as her own? So what about "fit"?

"I didn't know much about the figure of the person who drove this car last time, so he probably wasn't that assistant." The driving position is suitable for her... What is the height of the client of a Case on CC?At this time, she missed Reid's photographic memory very much.

"What's wrong?" Hotch bent over and patted her on the shoulder when she saw that Yuxi had been in a daze in the driver's seat.

"In some of the materials that Ryslander showed me before, there was information about a case client on CC, but I didn't remember it." And he left in a hurry, and directly threw the person in the reception room without asking for a case. Contact... NO!There is still contact information, I made a phone call early in the morning!

Hotch raised his eyebrows slightly, understanding what Yan Xi was suspecting, but it was a bold hypothesis, but he couldn't completely deny the possibility of this hypothesis being true.

"Huh?" She had just found out the call records in the morning, and the call had already come in. "Hello, this is Elthia Cecillia, what can I do?"

"The phone number of the kidnapper?" Out of surprise, Yu Xi's volume was raised unconsciously.

However, why did the kidnapper not call her sister or family members but this... ex?That kidnapper is a bit too strange, right?

"I'll be right back." No matter who the kidnapper called or why, at least now there is some news, and it can be confirmed that the guy was indeed kidnapped!

"Randall said the kidnappers called him." Yu Yan looked up at Hotch, his brows were tightly knit together; it was all a mess.

"Let's leave the situation here to the forensics department. Take the car back for inspection and seal the apartment." Looking at the time, Hotch also felt that the kidnapper's call came a little late. Did something happen in the middle?

"Okay." Anyway, let's go back and look at the situation first. The search here is not something that she and Hotch can do in this situation; I hope it's just an ordinary kidnapping case, and there should be no troubles in it.

Back in the bureau, Yu Xixi didn't say a word to the others, and rushed all the way straight to the reception room where Randall was, and after entering the reception room, it seemed like a nerve reflex, and locked the door behind—they didn't mean to What are you talking about?

"Why did the kidnapper call you?" Yu Yan frowned and stared at the person opposite. What kind of kidnapper would make a blackmail call to the kidnapped ex?This is a bit too strange, right?

"Because only I can help him fulfill his request."

......

Taking a deep breath, Yu Xixi no longer had much thought about the person in front of him, "What is the request?"

"Related to the previous Case, he demanded the return of all losses."

That means the kidnapper is really the client of the previous case?Since it is this guy, why did it take more than ten hours to make the request?What happened in the middle ten hours?Where did that assistant go?Why didn't he do it and disappeared?

"How much time will I give you?" This request is indeed only he can fulfill; but the logic of kidnapping one's own lawyer to threaten the other party's client is really incomprehensible.

"24 hours." If it's just money, this time is more than enough, but because the case was a dispute between two companies, there were too many things involved, and it took about half a month after the case was judged to clear the contents of the verdict. Execution is complete, now give me 24 hours... Otherwise, how could he be a mad kidnapper?He even tied up his lawyer to threaten the other party!

"During that case, what kind of relationship did you have with CC?" Yu Yuxi is not a gossip, maybe because the two people happened to be in a relationship during the case, it is easy for the client to think that his lawyer and the other party are just for a while , And then there is this radical act that broke the law.

"Not many people knew about our relationship at the time." Randall seemed to hesitate when answering this question. It seems that the relationship between him and CC has undergone a qualitative change during the progress of the Case. of.

"Yuxi, come here." After knocking on the door, Hotch gestured to Yuxi at the door and walked to the next room.

"Sorry, excuse me." With an apologetic smile, Yu Xi felt that this person should not need her to stay here to discuss anything with him, and it would be best to tell her the location of CC in the near future. This time, she didn't mind A non-professional intervened - besides, although he is a non-professional, it seems that many professionals are working for him!

"What's the matter?" Yu Yuxi flashed into the meeting room and found that everyone was there, and from the look on his face, he knew that what he told her next would definitely not be good news.

"The assistant is dead."

"Huh?" Dead?Is it an accidental coincidence or is there some connection between the two? "Where did you find it?" If it can't be proved that the two cases are related, someone else should be in charge of the matter, and Yuxi really hopes that it would be better if there is no connection, otherwise the matter may become more complicated.

"On the side of an abandoned pier, the forensic doctor concluded that the time of death was about 5 hours." Beckett pinned the photo of the scene on the whiteboard, "The cause of death was mechanical asphyxiation, and there were traces of new tires nearby. The type of tire is being tested and the vehicle is being identified model."

"Do you have a close-up photo of the dead man's hand?" Yu Xi rested his knuckles on the pure side, staring at one of the photos with squinted eyes, wishing he had a magnifying glass at hand now.

"Is there any problem?" Beckett didn't think that Yu Xi would have an occupational disease at such a time and wanted to see the condition of the corpse. What's more, the cause of death was already clear from experience. What special condition did the deceased's hands have?

"I'm holding something in my hand, but I can only see a third of it. I want to make sure what the dead man is holding in his hand."

"Here are the photos of all the items on the deceased's body." Seeing Yu Xixi's expression, Beckett understood something; he quickly started flipping through the files to find pictures of physical evidence for her.

"That's it." Yu Xi pressed her fingers on a photo, and the blue buttons on the photo made her sigh, "That's on CC's clothes."

"So sure?" After looking carefully, JJ felt that there was an ordinary blue button on that hand. Maybe there are such buttons on a certain series of clothes. I can't confirm anything based on the picture. If the kidnapper can be found on the button Fingerprints or DNA are another matter.

"I saw similar buttons on a piece of clothing in her luggage." Yan Xi knew that this was nothing to prove, but—"Hotch and I went to the residence of CC's former assistant in New York just now, and found But the position of the driver's seat is adjusted a little strangely, the assistant may not be able to drive well in that position, but if it is the client, the body fits the position of the driver's seat." Will care Such a button is also due to such suspicions before. Sometimes the sixth sense cannot be explained by scientific evidence; she just thinks that the assistant and the client are related to the kidnapping of CC.

"I asked the forensics to compare the fingerprints on the buttons as soon as possible." Esposito turned around and left the small conference room, not only to help Yu Xi to urge the fingerprint comparison results, but he also had other things to find the forensics.

"We will investigate the relationship between that assistant and that client."

"Thanks; besides, can I have a look at the body?" Although the kidnapper made a request, the call was not for her. Randall would continue to wait for the kidnapper's call, and she couldn't help with technical tracking. What's busy; let her see if she can get any clues in familiar places.

"Go to the laboratory by yourself. The coroner is an acquaintance of yours, so there should be no problem." Beckett's phrase "acquaintance" suddenly gave Yu Xi a feeling of "ambiguity" and gloating, don't be in such a serious time" Scared" Is she okay?
