People always feel happy when they are close to happiness, but worry about gains and losses when happiness is in progress.

But what Reid didn't expect was that he, Hodge and Morgan walked into the Los Angeles Police Station, met the sheriff who was in contact, and learned that there was another shooting case at noon.Then he saw a photo of Liu Fanxu on the case board prepared for them by the police station. This photo was an enlarged version taken from the video of the camera. She was wearing a knee-length dress, and the expression on her face was The moment when the smile froze.Reid stared at the board in disbelief, his mind went blank, and he prayed so fearfully only yesterday, praying that such a thing would never happen.

"I can't do it, I can't think." Rhett stood up from his seat in panic, staggered and almost fell, his beautiful brown eyes were dull and lifeless at the moment, and the eye sockets were red as if they were about to bleed Usually, with a trembling voice begging, "Please, help me, I can't keep thinking for more than four seconds now, I can't concentrate on finding her, please help me find her.".Hodge and Morgan both looked at him, sorrow heavy on their faces.Hodge was silent for a moment, and said, "Red, you can't lose your cool, Aga needs you. We will do our best, but we can't do without your help." Hodge quickly went to the table and looked for the map "This person seems to have appeared out of thin air. We need to calculate the geographical markers. No one is better at this than you. So, Rhett, calm down, for the sake of Aga." Rhett moved his lips, tears trembling in his eyes , slipped down the corner of his eyes, "Why, why, why is Ajia, why I didn't even call her today, why didn't I send her a text message." He kept muttering, his voice getting more and more It was thinner, more and more high-pitched, and finally it was a howling, desperate cry. He clenched the whiteboard marker in his hand and raised his hands to cover his eyes, as if only in this way could he breathe.

Morgan walked quickly behind Rhett and put his hands on his shoulders, "Red, don't do this, calm down." Rhett covered his eyes and arched his body, Morgan blinked his red eyes and comforted him, "I know this time It's different, we haven't found anything. If those cases hadn't really happened, if Aga hadn't been hijacked, we wouldn't even believe that such a murderer really existed. How well he hides, we have to find clues." Morgan looked up to Hodge "Hey Hodge, this thing is really weird, I've never seen a profile like it. All we can find are files , is limited to files, but no one really remembers him, which is so strange. It's as if someone wiped the memory of everyone who came into contact with him. Yes, the elementary school that the suspect graduated from can be found, in New Mexico , but none of the teachers, staff or classmates in the school remember him. If there is no student status file, none of them would believe that there was such a person in this school. In the student status file, the parent column is blank, I don’t understand How could such a registration form be allowed to be put into the archives, well, we can’t confirm the identity of his parents now, he may just be an orphan. The suspect has no information records from the age of 11 to 17, seven years is blank. Later, he suddenly appeared in New Mexico. He worked in a cleaning company and had no other residence except the staff dormitory. It was the same as when he was in elementary school. There were only files and no one remembered him. He had no social insurance and was doing a blue-collar job at the bottom of society. Living in poverty, no parents, no wife, no children, no brothers, no sisters, no relatives, no friends, no colleagues, until he quit his job at the age of 31. It dates back to the first shooting case, and it started from that time. This time he Instead of disappearing completely like before, he began to roam around the states, committing crimes in a yearly cycle, shooting and killing office workers. But because the crimes were committed across states, it was not discovered that the crime was committed by the same person until now. What have we missed? "

"Perhaps" Hodge suddenly stood up and walked to the billboard, pointing to the enlarged photo of the suspect on the board and said, "Our thinking at the beginning was wrong. We shouldn't think that knowing the portrait of the suspect can easily We were too impatient to arrest him and bring him to justice. Now, let's go back to the beginning and start from the beginning, as if we don't know who the murderer is at all, Rhett, Morgan, let's sort it out step by step." Hodge continued with his back to the kanban Said, "It has been twelve hours since the last incident, and there is no news of the suspect's vehicle in the blocked road checkpoints and street surveillance. He knows the road conditions here very well and chooses a route to avoid the surveillance, so he has lived here. It's been a long time, or he didn't leave at all." Hodge raised his hand and patted the monitor, Morgan turned sideways, and Hodge's words continued, "He doesn't worry about being caught by the camera when he commits the crime, and he doesn't worry about the parking lot. The vehicle was photographed, and he knew for a long time that we could not find him based on his appearance and the car. After committing the crime, he chose an escape route deliberately avoiding the camera, which shows that he committed the crime in a planned way."

Reid lowered his head and forced himself to calm down, took a few deep breaths, lay down on the spread map, and made marks on it according to Hodge and Morgan's thinking. After a while, he frowned and said, "The case has been locked down." The time on the road is less than an hour. I have calculated all the roads around the Los Angeles Times building that can pass the small truck Chevrolet. Even if he takes the shortest driving route, he cannot pass the checkpoint without being noticed, so he It must still be hidden in this area." Rhett spoke very fast, and took a whiteboard marker to circle a circle with a radius of 20 centimeters on the map with the Los Angeles Times Building as the origin "Marked in blue These are all the possible escape routes that can bypass the monitors, and the [-] area points marked in yellow are places where he may hide vehicles on these escape routes. Considering that the suspect has not been found for twelve hours, he There must be a fixed settlement in the area that can hide itself for a long time without being discovered by us. I marked four possible areas in red. Ajia’s mobile phone was not found at the scene of the crime. Maybe it is still on her body, but I have called many times, but they are not in the service area. If it hadn’t been for the murderer” Reid’s eyes were very red, he tried not to let his voice sound too vibrato.” The murderer found the mobile phone, destroyed or lost it on the road , or the place where they are at this time happens to be an area with poor signal coverage. And two of the four red possible areas I marked match, and one of these two areas must be the place where the suspect is hiding."

"Red, these two areas are densely forested." Morgan had a complex expression on his face, with sympathy, anger, and powerless hesitation. He rubbed his head hard and pressed down. Another guess in his throat, he looked at Hodge and asked for his opinion, "Hodge, what do you think?" He raised his head and said affirmatively, "I believe in Rhett's judgment, this is the only clue we have." It may also be Aga's last chance to survive, Rhett's eyes were moist, and he forced himself to open them wide to avoid tears from falling in them , He kept telling himself that now is not the time to be sad, his Aga is still alive, she must be alive, she is waiting for him to save her, he must find her.

The car drove for a long time on the winding mountain road until the road ahead of them was covered by bushes and bushes.The middle-aged man had to stop the car. He patted the steering wheel vigorously with both hands. The fat on his face was twitching, stained with sweat, his eyes were slightly protruding, and his expression was particularly ferocious. He yelled at her violently, "Now, get out of the car." !” She turned her head to avoid the saliva sprayed from his mouth, pushed the car door hard, kicked the pedals, and jumped out of the car.The ground is completely covered by bushes, and the feet feel very bad. If you accidentally step into the dirt pit, you will hurt your ankle.She lowered her head slightly to look at her ankles, and it was indeed covered by the grass. She raised the magic wand between her fingers, and the skin on her legs no longer felt tingling, and the touch between the soles of her feet and the ground became much softer and smoother.This is a little trick secretly passed down by the mentor, and it is very practical for potion masters like them who often go in and out of the deep forest.

He squinted at the middle-aged man who was only one step away from her and was leading the way. He was walking forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow, his figure in a panic.Liu Fanxu raised his hand to help his somewhat messy hair, and looked around at the surrounding trees. This reminded her of when she was at Hogwarts, every time she went in and out of the Forbidden Forest with her mentor to pick rare medicinal materials.Sometimes in the evening, sometimes in the middle of the night, sometimes in the early morning, they tracked the extremely rare potion ingredients according to the moon watch, and she followed the mentor's big and fast steps. Because of the difference in height, she always looked It was a little harder, but she never complained.Because at that time, she was eager to get the mentor's approval on the potion, even if it was just keeping pace before picking the potion.

They bypassed the habitat of the mighty centaurs, avoided the lair of the six-eyed spider, and explored deeper into the Forbidden Forest.From clumsiness at the beginning to proficiency later, no matter how fast her steps can be, she will choose to take half a step and follow behind her mentor.Not only respect for him as a mentor, but more importantly, under the night, the moonlight sprinkled on him sporadically through the dense branches, she followed behind him, watching the mentor's firm back, The figure of his walking forward without hesitation always makes her feel that no matter how many unknown hazes and fears lie in the darkness ahead, she can be fearless.

Until there is no longer the shield of her mentor in front of her, until she can only go forward no matter how frightened she is, until she stumbles and learns to complete the exploration that once belonged to two people alone.She became a strong person as she and her mentor hoped.However, in every midnight dream, she still misses the staggering young figure. She stretched out her little hand nervously, holding the mentor's fluttering robe, and followed the tall figure closely in a dark dense forest. Tall and straight back.
