Just as Aliya rubbed against the wall and tried to sit up, she heard a faint groan.
On the fertilizer bag more than ten meters away from her, Ashley Lopez held her forehead with one hand and sat up slowly with the bag in the other.The big John has all the strength, but he can't control it, not to mention whether he did it on purpose, Ashley's head injury is indeed serious.
Blood flowed from the wound, staining most of her face red. Even though Ashley pressed the bleeding port firmly after waking up, the excessive blood loss made her dizzy, her limbs were weak, and she couldn't move for a long time. Very dazed.
"No, no, no." Aliya desperately sent her a distress signal.It was such a heartening thing that John didn't tie up Ashley. She seemed to be able to see the touching scene of herself and Ashley escaping from the sky hand in hand.
Finally, Ashley, who was enduring the concussion and dizziness, found the caterpillar looking at her with scorching eyes from the corner.She struggled to slide down from the cloth bag, and after shaking her fat body a few times before she stood still, she moved towards Aliya with difficulty.
Under the dim light, Ashley, whose face was covered in blood, looked a bit hideous.And for Aaliyah, she is as lovely as an angel.
Although it is a bit unkind to say so, Ashley's existence is her greatest comfort in this lonely and helpless darkness and cold.If it weren't for the existence of another person, she couldn't imagine that after seeing Keira's tragedy, she would still be able to seek a way out with a normal mind.
She watched Ashley walking towards her step by step with gratitude, but when she was still ten steps away, Ashley suddenly turned a corner.
Aliya wanted to ask why, but she was gagged and could only choose to accept it—she really couldn't think of a reason why Ashley refused to save her.She watched silently as Ashley swayed towards the crock pot that had been rolled away because of her improper use, and then picked it up.
The wound that lost pressure began to ooze again, but fortunately, the amount was not much, and Ashley could still hold on.She lifted the pot with difficulty, turned and continued walking towards Arya.
As it got closer, time seemed to be passing slower and slower... Because of the backlight, Aliya couldn't see Ashley's expression clearly. She could only smell the increasingly bloody smell and hear herself Faster and faster heartbeat.Instinctively, she subconsciously stepped back a little bit, holding her breath a little scared.
And just two steps away from her, Ashley lifted the flowerpot with great effort...
"Py————" The alarm bell sounded from far and near, and there were successive brakes.
With a "crack", almost at the same time, there was the sound of Ashley smashing the flower pot on the ground.She squatted down quickly, ignoring her injury, picked up a relatively sharp fragment, and pointed the tip at Alia.
"Turn around and give me your hand." After shaking, Ashley finally said the first words after coming here.
Aliya paused, secretly relieved, and turned around as Ashley ordered.Ashley found the knot immediately, poked and picked it apart with the tip of the tile.
She was very hard, and very anxious... Alia's hand was painfully pulled, and the skin on her arm was inevitably punctured, but she bit the cloth and held back the struggle.
After dozens of seconds, the rope broke.The noise outside became louder, as if a large group of people were approaching here, and occasionally a few dogs barking could be heard.
Alicia, who freed her hands, immediately went with Ashley to cut the rope on her feet.With the joint efforts of the two, the rope was quickly untied.
"We have to escape to stop John." Pulling Aliya up from the ground, Ashley took her hand a little sadly and said, "We can't let him hurt others anymore."
"You're right." Aliya tore off the rag from her mouth, spat out the mud, glanced at her, and nodded.
"Help! Help! There's someone here!" Holding hands, they rushed to the wooden door, clapped with all their strength, and shouted for help.
There was a dog barking outside the door.
"Hurry up, there are people here!" A light came in from outside.
It turned out that at some point, it was already dark outside.
"There are two of us here!" Arya suddenly yelled at them, ignoring Ashley's tightening hand.
"Got it. Back off a few meters and stay away from the wooden door." In the chaos, Aliya heard the man's voice, and the tears she had been holding back almost welled up in her eyes.She could swear that she never loved him that much one day.
The two were still holding hands and retreating, Ashley quickened a few steps and walked behind Aaliyah.Aliya gritted her teeth, pretending she didn't see anything.
With a "snap", the wooden door was kicked through a hole.The man outside took a step back, continued his efforts, and finally kicked the door completely crooked and knocked down.
Four police officers with guns rushed in and surrounded the two girls.The light shone in and they saw each other thoroughly.
"Alia Williams?" Man looked at the gray-faced woman at the beginning, a little surprised.He felt that he should call other people to take a look, um, this wonderful fate is really a bit like... a miracle?
"It's me, nice to meet you." Aliya walked towards the man, so Ashley hesitated, but had to let go of her hand.
"Your injuries need to be treated." Man glanced at them one after another. The woman whose face was covered with blood on half of her face should be Ashley Lopez. In comparison, she seemed to be more seriously injured.
JJ also walked here, and she was also surprised to see Alia, who shouldn't be here.When she wanted to take the two out of here first, Ashley rushed over and grabbed her.
"Where's John? Where's John?" she asked anxiously.
"He escaped, but don't worry, we will catch him." JJ was taken aback, but she quickly regained her composure and tried to comfort Ashley.
"Yes, please trust them." Aliya walked up to them at some point, took JJ's hand, and pushed Ashley away.
JJ looked at her puzzled, but Alia winked at her silently and said, "I'm dizzy, can you take me to the ambulance to have a rest first?"
"of course."
But just when they were about to leave, Hotch and others who had gone to chase the prisoner came back with John Anderson under pressure.The lights hit them like returning heroes.
"John, why are you doing this?" As a wounded and victim, no one would be wary of her, Ashley suddenly rushed to John whose hands were held.
And John also broke out suddenly at that moment, throwing off the police officers around him, and biting Ashley's neck!
"No—" After coming out of the warehouse, Aliya has been paying attention to Ashley's movements. She is the first person to discover Ashley's intentions, but she has no time to stop this dramatic scene!
With a "bang" gunshot, John fell on Ashley's body and fell on the roses. Blood sprayed out from the bullet holes, making the flowers more delicate and beautiful.
"Help me! He's trying to kill me!" cried Ashley, with her head unfortunately resting on a pair of intestines. "He's a ruthless murderer."
Several police officers hurried forward to move the big John away and rescued Ashley underneath.The stretcher was brought over, and she was gently lifted up with more injuries.
"Promise me, he killed so many people, don't let him go. If you don't kill him, he will continue to hurt people." On the way to be carried away, she weakly took the hand closest to him, pleading road.
He glanced at her with a smile.After Ashley was carried away, he turned to Aaliyah, who was a little collapsed not far away.
"Is he dead?" Aliya asked tremblingly, hugging her shoulders tightly.
The shot was fired by hotch, who knew exactly where he was going.He walked over, knelt down, leaned towards John's neck, and said, "He just passed out."
"Great." Aliya breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down on the ground.She took JJ's hand, choked up and said incoherently: "He shouldn't just die like this. Ashley, she...she just wanted to kill me."
It was almost... She was sure that if they hadn't arrived in time, the pot would have hit her on the head 100%.
Need to smash pots to cut rope?Wouldn't it be natural if she was tied too?The problem is that Ashley can easily help her untie it with her hands, so why risk the wound to crack and move a basin in front of her to smash it open?
Ashley clearly wanted to kill her, and John...why?
Alia still can't tell who is right and who is wrong, she only knows that she must not die, not only her, but also John, otherwise the truth behind this case will never be solved.
"Go over." Walking to Reid's side, he raised his chin and gestured towards Alia.
Reid turned his head and looked at him a little bit confused: "What should I say?"
He didn't say anything, he just looked at him silently.
Reid took two steps forward, then looked back at him, seeing that he didn't say anything, he could only continue walking forward with hands and feet.
"Hi, are you okay?"
Arya choked, and she looked up to see someone standing in front of her, holding out his hand to her.
"R!" She was stunned for two seconds, then cried and threw herself into his arms.It's been so long—it's only been a few hours, but every second of it feels like a lifetime to her, and now...she can finally cry.
Reid opened his hand in a bit of embarrassment, and stretched out behind her, not knowing whether he should hug her back or not.
Yes, he is not used to being in contact with other people, and he doesn't like hugging very much.
But does Aaliyah need a hug right now?
Yes, she needs to.
So, should he hug her?
Yes, he should.
He slowly retracted his hand... and hugged her.Feeling her trembling more and more, he tried to tighten his hands and hold her tighter.
Should he say something?Although I don't know why I saw Alia here, but she obviously suffered a lot of grievances.What should he say to comfort her and appease her emotions?
Reid opened his mouth, but still couldn't make a sound.He found it took all his strength and all his stamina just to hold Arya close, but... it felt good.
Not far away, Man and Elle, who were looking at them with their waists up, looked at each other, and their bored postures were in sync.
After the special order, the ambulance carrying John and Ashley had already left.The police officers in charge of evidence collection were also preparing to leave. Man looked at Hotch, who kept a straight face no matter what he saw, shrugged, and asked:
"Seriously, do we need to leave a car for them if we're going to go first?"
Fortunately, before Hotch could really say anything, Reid on the other end suddenly looked back very unsteadily, and shouted in panic:
"Hotch! Hotch!"
It turned out... Aliya, who was physically and mentally exhausted, cried and cried, and finally couldn't hold on, and passed out.
Now, the rest of bau's friends can no longer calmly watch the show...
******
a few days later.
Alia was walking along the beach in a good mood, and there was a person beside her who kept walking side by side with her very well.
She came to him today and returned the well-washed knitted cardigan to him. Of course, there were also a few bags of miraculous biscuits that she thought had the effect of relieving worries and sorrows.Afterwards, she pulled the man out with a "tough" attitude and walked around with her.
"The Anderson family has a hereditary psychosis, and it usually starts around the age of 30." The wind blew a few strands of her long hair onto his face, and Reid turned his head a little, looking at the top of her hair and said.
"Later, we dug up the soil under all the flower fields in Avery Manor, that is, the farm, and found... a lot of corpses." When he said this, he glanced at Alia again, Watching her expression, afraid of accidentally hurting her.
He knew that Aliya had witnessed almost the whole scene of John dismembering Keira Clark, and it was only with her identification that they could successfully piece together the complete skeleton of the lady.
Alicia turned her head and smiled at him. Reid also breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "There are 35 people in total, but there are only 22 people in our records, that is, there are still 12 anonymous people."
"Where did the other person go?" Aliya's math and reaction skills are not bad.
"Anna Anderson, John's biological mother. According to the year, she was the first to die. In 2009, she escaped from the mental hospital and has never been recorded. She should have been captured by John. However," Reid Taking a deep breath, "The cause of her death was not buried alive, she died of illness."
"After Anna died, she was buried in the deepest part of the rose garden. In the same year, after the roses were harvested, John started killing. On the way to deliver the goods, he brought some homeless people back to the In the manor, it was buried in the soil and flower seeds were sprinkled on it."
Seeing that Alia was puzzled, Reid began to explain that he didn't realize that there was something wrong with introducing the case enthusiastically in such a dating-like scene. Fortunately, Alia also listened with gusto.
"John was buried in the ground by his mother when he was a child. At that time, Anna's illness was very serious. She lacked care and no one could urge her to take medicine. She thought that she was 'planting flowers', and John would be like a seed. Similarly, after being buried in the soil, it will not die, but will sprout, grow and bloom."
"After John was rescued, his brain was damaged, and his mind remained at the level of a nine-year-old child, sensitive and innocent. Coupled with the abuse of the old Mrs. Anderson, his cognition was even more distorted, and he became more and more immersed in his own fantasy. Because He's socially impaired, he can't communicate normally with others, and he's extremely lacking in empathy."
"What about Ashley?" In the past few days, Aliya has been thinking about all the details that happened that day. She has figured out some things, but some are still very confused.
"She pleaded guilty. After knowing that John was not dead, she realized that she could not hide the matter, so she chose to confess in the company of a lawyer. At first, she wanted to disguise herself as a victim. After failing, she Hopefully the charge can be reduced to an accessory."
Reid looked at Alia, and there was a little admiration in his eyes that he didn't know.After figuring things out, Lian praised her reaction and coping that day.You must know that it is really rare to praise people like this, and it can be seen that he likes Alia very much.
"Actually, if it wasn't for her, John wouldn't have attacked so many people. Avery Manor has been deserted for a long time, and it was Ashley who suggested turning it into a garden. This will undoubtedly expand the demand for 'flower fertilizer', John. You can't just target the homeless man, he needs more prey."
"It was also she who helped John plan the operation and provided him with a list of people who could be kidnapped and specific plans. These victims spread across all walks of life, including Ashley's uncle. After her uncle was confirmed dead, she was assigned to A sum of money was used to open the current Angela flower shop."
Aliya gasped in surprise, suddenly a little scared.She dared to swear that if she knew this at the time, when Ashley approached her with a flower pot, she would never have stayed where she was obediently, and would never have had the courage to deal with this big devil later.
"That is to say, Ashley came back to John that day, not to save someone, but to..." Alia became more and more frightened as she thought about it.
"In order to silence." Reid nodded, "She knew that John had kidnapped Mrs. Clark, so she had to inform him to get rid of him before the police came. But there was a small accident..."
"She didn't expect that John would arrest me." Aliya took over the words, "Even if I was on the list, it should be executed the next afternoon, but John did it earlier."
And she also thought of the reason—it was because of what she said in front of the flower shop.
John once asked her persistently whether flowers really have souls.Combined with Reid's words, Aliya understands that what John really wants to know is-is his mother's words true?Had his mother's spirit actually been in those flowers—had she been watching him?
This is also the reason why he would kill those people-John, who had distorted three views, just wanted to do a small experiment, so he needed a "sample".Perhaps, Ashley also used similar reasons to lure him—different types of people correspond to different flower species, and no one knows these better than her who runs a flower shop.
"Ashley suggested that John kill Mrs. Clark and you, but John disagreed. He didn't want to kill you." As for why, they couldn't ask John.But Reid was very grateful for this, glanced at Alia, and he continued: "So, the two of them had a dispute, and John was in a hurry and injured Ashley with a wooden plank."
Then, there was what happened to her... Thinking about it is scary.
Aliya stopped, faced the sea, looked at the waves blown by the wind, and took a deep breath of fresh air with a slightly salty smell.
Reid paused, and walked to her side.He heard her say—
"Actually, I visited John Anderson in prison this morning." Seeing Reid looking at her in surprise, Alia smiled, "R, don't be so nervous, don't worry, I don't have Stockholm Syndrome."
"I just want to go and have a look. I've always been confused. I don't think he's a bad person, but he committed something extremely cruel. If possible, I really want to ask him why he killed Kaila , why do you want to kill so many people?"
"But I know it's impossible for him to answer. In his opinion, a flower is more important than a person. He didn't kill me, but this will not be the reason for me to thank him."
"So," she turned her head to look at Reid: "Yes, I won't thank him, and I won't visit him again."
Reid did not comment on her approach, he just said: "Ashley will also be sanctioned, she uses John to fulfill her fantasies and achieve her own goals. If John is born with a mental illness, Ashley is born serial killer."
His mother, a paranoid schizophrenic, lives in a nursing home in Las Vegas.According to the law of inheritance, he is very likely to inherit some from his mother like John... What will happen to him then?
Do you think that a dead person controls his brain, causing the brain to lose self-control and think about some problems involuntarily?Do you think that your thoughts, behaviors, expressions and movements are imposed by external forces, and thus are controlled by external forces and lose your autonomy?
He was always afraid of this...
"No, I have always believed that the formation of a person's character, thinking and behavior patterns has a lot to do with his innate and acquired influences. Some of them cannot be chosen, but some of them can be chosen by themselves. "
Alia's crisp voice rang in his ears, and Reid involuntarily turned his head to look at her, feeling a little touched in his heart.
"We have a choice," she said, looking at him firmly, "and never give up."
"Yes." The time spent with Aliya didn't seem to be hard.
He lowered his head and pursed his lips and smiled, and together with her, he set his eyes on the long-distance sail, feeling unprecedentedly relaxed.
On the fertilizer bag more than ten meters away from her, Ashley Lopez held her forehead with one hand and sat up slowly with the bag in the other.The big John has all the strength, but he can't control it, not to mention whether he did it on purpose, Ashley's head injury is indeed serious.

"Actually, if it wasn't for her, John wouldn't have attacked so many people. Avery Manor has been deserted for a long time, and it was Ashley who suggested turning it into a garden. This will undoubtedly expand the demand for 'flower fertilizer', John. You can't just target the homeless man, he needs more prey."
"It was also she who helped John plan the operation and provided him with a list of people who could be kidnapped and specific plans. These victims spread across all walks of life, including Ashley's uncle. After her uncle was confirmed dead, she was assigned to A sum of money was used to open the current Angela flower shop."
Aliya gasped in surprise, suddenly a little scared.She dared to swear that if she knew this at the time, when Ashley approached her with a flower pot, she would never have stayed where she was obediently, and would never have had the courage to deal with this big devil later.
"That is to say, Ashley came back to John that day, not to save someone, but to..." Alia became more and more frightened as she thought about it.
"In order to silence." Reid nodded, "She knew that John had kidnapped Mrs. Clark, so she had to inform him to get rid of him before the police came. But there was a small accident..."
"She didn't expect that John would arrest me." Aliya took over the words, "Even if I was on the list, it should be executed the next afternoon, but John did it earlier."
And she also thought of the reason—it was because of what she said in front of the flower shop.
John once asked her persistently whether flowers really have souls.Combined with Reid's words, Aliya understands that what John really wants to know is-is his mother's words true?Had his mother's spirit actually been in those flowers—had she been watching him?
This is also the reason why he would kill those people-John, who had distorted three views, just wanted to do a small experiment, so he needed a "sample".Perhaps, Ashley also used similar reasons to lure him—different types of people correspond to different flower species, and no one knows these better than her who runs a flower shop.
"Ashley suggested that John kill Mrs. Clark and you, but John disagreed. He didn't want to kill you." As for why, they couldn't ask John.But Reid was very grateful for this, glanced at Alia, and he continued: "So, the two of them had a dispute, and John was in a hurry and injured Ashley with a wooden plank."
Then, there was what happened to her... Thinking about it is scary.
Aliya stopped, faced the sea, looked at the waves blown by the wind, and took a deep breath of fresh air with a slightly salty smell.
Reid paused, and walked to her side.He heard her say—
"Actually, I visited John Anderson in prison this morning." Seeing Reid looking at her in surprise, Alia smiled, "R, don't be so nervous, don't worry, I don't have Stockholm Syndrome."
"I just want to go and have a look. I've always been confused. I don't think he's a bad person, but he committed something extremely cruel. If possible, I really want to ask him why he killed Kaila , why do you want to kill so many people?"
"But I know it's impossible for him to answer. In his opinion, a flower is more important than a person. He didn't kill me, but this will not be the reason for me to thank him."
"So," she turned her head to look at Reid: "Yes, I won't thank him, and I won't visit him again."
Reid did not comment on her approach, he just said: "Ashley will also be sanctioned, she uses John to fulfill her fantasies and achieve her own goals. If John is born with a mental illness, Ashley is born serial killer."
His mother, a paranoid schizophrenic, lives in a nursing home in Las Vegas.According to the law of inheritance, he is very likely to inherit some from his mother like John... What will happen to him then?
Do you think that a dead person controls his brain, causing the brain to lose self-control and think about some problems involuntarily?Do you think that your thoughts, behaviors, expressions and movements are imposed by external forces, and thus are controlled by external forces and lose your autonomy?
He was always afraid of this...
"No, I have always believed that the formation of a person's character, thinking and behavior patterns has a lot to do with his innate and acquired influences. Some of them cannot be chosen, but some of them can be chosen by themselves. "
Alia's crisp voice rang in his ears, and Reid involuntarily turned his head to look at her, feeling a little touched in his heart.
"We have a choice," she said, looking at him firmly, "and never give up."
"Yes." The time spent with Aliya didn't seem to be hard.
He lowered his head and pursed his lips and smiled, and together with her, he set his eyes on the long-distance sail, feeling unprecedentedly relaxed.
