Half an hour has passed, and Lin Sheng briefly recounted what Rayburn had said.

The BAU people who returned to the meeting room extracted the key points from these clues, and added new profiles on the basis of retaining the original clues.

"...he is about 188 centimeters tall, with a strong physique, aged between 30 and 35 years old. He lives alone and has a job with fixed hours and good income." Lin Sheng read the previous profile records of the BAU team, looked up Reid: "It's amazing, you have guessed his appearance even though you have never met him before!"

Lin Sheng's big shiny black eyes nearly blinded Dr. Reid. He regretted that he compromised and made 5 cups of coffee for the girl in a row... These fiery (?) little eyes are too easily misunderstood!

Seeing that the little doctor whom he was respecting turned red and didn't answer, Lin Sheng guessed that his overly blunt praise might have made him shy, so he continued the topic in a considerate way: "What about being an adult, living alone, and having a regular job with a good salary?" I know how to tell—after all, the person who has the time to follow and kidnap us and make videos is not a student or a 30-to-35 office worker. Someone who can organize all the plans and have the physical strength to complete all the preparations is mentally aged There is nothing wrong with being between [-] and [-]..."

Seeing Reid nodding appreciatively, Lin Sheng asked her doubts: "The only thing I can't understand is, how do you know his height?" And it was so accurate.

As soon as he asked a professional question, Dr. Reid immediately started to chatter: "We first went to the kidnapping site to do a site survey. The kidnapping site that Rayburn chose was very remote. The footprints collected there and the surveillance video The combination of the back of the black clothes, after measurement and scientific calculation, and the deviation caused by the angular position, can allow us to get an accurate figure about Rayburn's height."

Lin Sheng nodded: "In theory, I understand, can you apply it concretely? For example, can you guess my height and age?"

"Uh..." The girl asked the question about sex very calmly. After struggling for two seconds, the little doctor quickly replied: "If I guess correctly, your height is 167 centimeters, and you are still 18 years old in two months. adult."

"It's amazing, how do you know?" Lin Sheng entered this world for the first time—there are so many talented people and so much to learn, all of which made her very excited.

"It can be calculated from the height of the container you just explained."

"Oh." Lin Sheng suddenly realized that it was easy to think about it this way.

"and……"

"Ok?"

"When we contacted the families of the abductees, we read the information about you, and the content was clearly written." Reid said with a smile.

"..." Lin Sheng felt like being molested.

Garcia, who was watching the excitement, was so cute by Reid and Lin Sheng that he didn't hear Boss Hodge's call for a while.

"Garcia." Man reminded helplessly: "Pay attention to record the content of the profile."

"Yes, sir!"

Hearing this, everyone including Reid and Lin Sheng immediately became attentive.

Hotch: "Rayburn witnessed his own sister Connie being burned at the stake in the Middle East, but he couldn't rescue her due to his identity, and even pretended not to know her at all—this is the main reason for Rayburn's psychological barrier. reason."

Rossi: "Connie was the only family he had, and that triggered all the negative emotions he'd been suppressing for decades. We think he wanted to kidnap the high-ranking official because Rayburn blamed him for his sister's death. Order."

Man: "If he hadn't sent me to the Middle East, my sister wouldn't have died. If he hadn't sent me to the Middle East, I would have been able to save her—that's what Rayburn was thinking."

Emily: "Kidnapping has nothing to do with revenge. Do you still remember Rayburn's online name [Martyr]? We have never understood its meaning, but now we understand - Rayburn regards the only relative as his faith, Burning the same fire that his sister suffered on innocent girls was not for the pleasure of killing, but on the contrary, he wanted to regain his faith."

At this moment, everyone's expressions were complicated.

Lin Sheng was confused, she saw that everyone was staring at her.

"?"

Reid hesitated, and explained to her: "Connie and Rayburn were both spies trained since childhood. She exposed her identity, so she was lynched. On the other hand, Rayburn hated himself for being powerless, On the other hand, he also resented his dead sister. The reason why he repeated the scene of burning at the stake was to find someone like you."

"He burned the girls because of me?" Lin Sheng asked.

Everyone was afraid that she would think so, so they hesitated to tell her.

"Oh no, of course not!" Emily blurted out, then closed her mouth "considerately" and left the rest of the consolation to Reid.

"...?" It was a little strange why Emily didn't continue talking since she opened her mouth, so Reid continued to explain to Lin Sheng: "Because of your appearance, the other three girls are still alive. You are the only one." The man who is not afraid of Rayburn is the only one who can calm down even at the stake. Rayburn fuses you and Connie for a split second and he feels his faith again. That's why he stops burning and shuts down Videotape, so your three friends are alive now!"

Lin Sheng was a complete victim, and they didn't want her to feel guilty at all.

They didn't intend to tell her the truth, but facing this clever girl who remembered everything clearly to help her friends, they instinctively didn't want to lie to her.

Seeing Lin Sheng nodding happily to show that he fully understood, they breathed a sigh of relief—the smarter a person is, the harder it is to find a way out when they reach a dead end.

They try their best to avoid a tragedy like Rayburn from happening again.

Lin Sheng was thoughtful: "That is to say, Rayburn currently has a crush on me?"

Reid froze for a moment, not understanding the purpose of her question for a moment: "...you can say that."

Lin Sheng smiled: "Then, if I beg Rayburn to tell me the whereabouts of my three friends, do you think he will say so?"

There was silence in the conference room.

"You..." Emily didn't know what to do with this girl. So far, what she had done to the other three girls who didn't know each other had far exceeded her obligations.

If all the victims were like her... No!Quickly stop this irresponsible imagination - Emily slapped her forehead again.

Man reacted the quickest: "No way! We can't send you back again."

Lin Sheng turned his head and looked at the wall watch: "I mean, wouldn't Rayburn call the lieutenant general in nine minutes? I can ask him at that time."

Hotch frowned very tightly: "Raeburn will definitely make a deal with you, we won't let you complete these."

Rossi's reaction was different from Hodge's. He asked Lin Sheng gently: "He may make very excessive demands on you. You know, their brother and sister's spy training is extremely cruel. If he treats you as Connie, and Let you do what Connie can do?"

"I will promise him." Lin Sheng replied without hesitation, but then added in a low voice: "The big deal is that I will regret it later."

"Ha!" Rossi laughed happily, and he joked: "Lin, when you reach the age of 20, if you are interested in working at BAU, I will be solely responsible for your recommendation."

Lin Sheng showed eight small white teeth and smiled brightly: "Thank You, Rossi!"

"You're welcome."

Seeing that Hotch was still frowning, Rossi persuaded: "Okay, this is the only way at present."

Then he looked at Lin Sheng again, and he said in a charming and magnetic voice unique to mature men——

"Next, we are companions, and we have nothing to hide from our companions. Garcia, tell Lin about some of our key suspects."

"OK!" Garcia smiled at Lin Sheng, moved the laptop and sat down in front of her: "From the clues you provided, we highlighted the following freighters—"

As he spoke, his subordinates kept saying, "The time you left the container was [-]:[-] p.m., and it took about half an hour to find that the container was missing. I checked the departure record within this half hour and it was [-] searches. Excluding those approaching the course within seven days, there are still five ships left."

Lin Sheng looked at the rows of information on the computer, and began to recall every sentence, every exclamation, every sigh, every pause of Rayburn...

She pointed to the computer screen: "The two cargo ships to Egypt and Iran can be ruled out. Rayburn said that he never wants to set foot in the Middle East again."

Garcia glanced at the officer, saw that he nodded, and deleted the two windows with two clicks.

God behold, she loves this step!

"You're doing great," *encourages.

Lin Sheng paused for a few seconds, and pointed at the Australian freighter with some hesitation: "I remember Rayburn mentioned that Connie likes kangaroos and koalas the most."

"It means they've been to Australia, and that's one of their memories," Reid said.

After comprehensive profiling results, Hotch decided: "Exclude this."

After deleting another window, Garcia looked at Lin Sheng expectantly.

Only two freighters remained on the computer—one Chinese and one Russian.

Both ships are long-distance routes, and it takes about three weeks to reach the port.

The girls were imprisoned on one of these two cruise ships. If they guessed wrong and missed it, when they saw them again, they would probably be mummies.

This time Lin Sheng didn't reach out again, she said: "Sorry, I only know that Rayburn has Russian blood, and China is my hometown. I can't guess which cargo ship he will put the girls on."

Usually the last gift of a serial killer is closely related to his own situation, which is a kind of morbid showing off and legacy.If Rayburn is a narcissistic personality, then the last link must be Russia, which fits the origin of his life.But on the other hand, since everything is caused by the death of his sister Connie, Lin Sheng's hometown, which is a substitute for faith, is also given great significance in Rayburn's heart.

The BAU agents looked at each other—and they weren't sure which boat Rayburn would put the girls on.

Time passed by minute by minute.

There are less than 3 minutes left before the half-hour appointment.

Lieutenant General Hillenkot brought back a large group of people, holding various tracking instruments, connected to the mobile phone in an orderly manner, and waited for the phone to ring.

Hotch stared at Lin Sheng for a long time.

Lin Sheng looked back calmly.

After a long time, he finally stretched his brows.

"are you ready?"
