There are always bad people who want to harm the family [Comprehensive]

——R, I like you.

Did he hear it wrong?

No.Someone hugged him behind his back and told him she liked him.He could feel the warm touch coming through several layers of clothing, and his own heartbeat getting faster and faster, which was a farewell to the reality of dreaming.

It's been a long time, until the hands holding him gradually let go, and then Reid dully realized that he might have to do something.But what to do?What should you do after being confessed? — he was never taught, and he had no chance to teach himself.

The young man who was dazed by the first heat wave in his life turned his head stiffly, only to find that the brave girl had begun to lose her soul—like a stone sculpture that had lost its soul, her eyes had lost their brilliance, and her face was shrouded in shadows and become dim.

At this time, he panicked again.

Poor little doctor won't understand the importance of timing in a confession.But by the time he had a clue, it was already too late.

"Alia?" He tried to put his hand on her shoulder, but she avoided it.

"Sorry, I don't want to engage in any moral kidnapping, so just pretend I haven't heard anything just now." Although she didn't dare to look up to reveal her tears, Alia still forced a smile, "You know, I If you are in a bad mood, you will inevitably talk nonsense."

"..." Now, a certain person is really completely relieved.But poor thing, it's useless to scratch the wall in his heart, he just can't speak a word when he opens his mouth wide.

"My mind is messed up. Things always happen so suddenly, far longer than I can digest. Therefore, it is normal to have one thought at a time. Don't worry, I will consider the witness protection plan carefully. After catching the behind-the-scenes Before that person, I will definitely live a good life!"

The fickleness of women is well reflected in Alia at this time-after the confession failed, the person who was stuck at the door of avoidant personality disorder relapsed, and found a good excuse for himself, trying to divert attention .

"..." For a moment, Reid, whose mind froze again, really thought that what he had just heard was just a hallucination.

Fortunately, he was not completely stupid.On the contrary, very quick-witted.

"That's why I go and come back," he said before Arya was about to drive away.

Therefore, the package that was temporarily forgotten by the two of them acted as a pot cover and re-entered their sight. Reid put it directly in Aliya's hand, and said quickly: "I restored it to the way it was just opened."

Aliya froze for a moment, Reid's performance just now gave her a slight illusion of being flattered.She wiped away the tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, and looked at him suspiciously, just in time to meet the encouraging eyes of the other party, her heart, which was not so calm at first, "thumped" again.

She immediately lowered her head, trying to turn her attention elsewhere, and at this moment, she found the paper pasted on the top of the package, with two lines of cursive words printed on it:

"gift to rreid,

Sincerely, Houghton."

"Who is Horton?" This is a surname. Of course, it can also be considered as a real estate company, or the abbreviation of a city in Northwest Michigan, etc.But the problem is that the name "r" will be used, which shows that this "Horton" has a certain understanding of reid.So, why would he send a package specifically to an fbi?

"It is generally believed that this is a surname from England. People with this surname in the United States probably have..."

While Reid was explaining, Aliya began to open the package along the incision, and the first thing she saw was a photo.

"This is..." She was a little surprised, "It was photographed when we parted half a year ago."

She can be sure, 100%.Because that day was really one of the most memorable days in her memory - she came back from the police station after being abused, persuaded Reese who was going to protect her away, and then encountered a prisoner ambushing at the corner on the way upstairs after dinner... Finally, there is the sudden separation from Reid.

The photo captures the moment when she walks him out the door, tears still on her face, with her home in the background.

what does that mean?Her life has been monitored?

Thinking of the reason, Aliya's hands and feet gradually became cold along with her heart.And at this moment, the back of her hand felt warm - Reid's hand rested on it lightly, and then held it tightly.

Her clenched heart was slightly soothed under the warmth, and the little courage she had accumulated allowed her to move the photo away and saw the second thing—a video tape.

Or rather, a videotape whose contents are not yet known.However, its "identity" was quickly revealed by the third thing - a piece of plain white paper, on which the words "her dark secret" were printed in the same cursive script.

Who is "she" referring to?Undoubtedly, as the photograph suggested, it was her—Alia Williams.This is about her secret, or the ulterior kind.

"Have you watched the video tape?" The hand holding the paper tightened, and Aliya didn't dare to look at him, and even tried hard to avoid his sight.

"No." Reid freed the paper from her hand and replaced it with his own.Alas, her hands are a little cold...

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and his EQ finally rebounded after reaching a trough. Reid swallowed back the words he was going to say.

He realized that he didn't need to tell her how he felt when he received the package, he didn't need to tell her that he stopped in front of the projector, and he didn't need to tell her the struggle at that time and his hesitation along the way... these unpleasant processes , he just needs to know for himself, because——

"Alia, this is your secret. No one has the right to know it until you decide to make it public and without your permission," he said.

So, at that point, he hesitated, and eventually put the tape back where it belonged.

He didn't know the purpose of "Horton" sending him this package.What do you want him to know about the so-called "her ulterior secret"?Or after he watched the video tape, what consequences would it cause?

However, after the impulse passed, Alia's smile appeared in his mind. He suddenly realized that the video tape in his hand was a Pandora's box. All the good things between him and him are slowly swallowed up.

He didn't want to destroy these with his own hands, and he couldn't transfer them to others without her consent.After the package in his hands was getting hotter and hotter, the best thing he could think of was to meet her with the package...

- "This is your secret".

Aliya never imagined that one day she would hear such words.

She disguised her ugliest things with the sweetest icing and the most charming flowers, but she was careful not to place them in the brightest places.Unexpectedly, it would be easily stolen.And what was even more unexpected was that there was a person who knew the truth of the inner *, but was still willing to send it back intact.

"R, how can you be so cute." Why can you trust her so much?Why can you be so tolerant to her?

Aliya sighed, covered her eyes with her hands, and laughed even though she was crying.

"You have praised me as 'cute' several times." He took her hand, and there are too many people who praised him for being smart, but he was a little puzzled by this unfamiliar adjective, "Do you like me because I am 'cute'? ?”

"No, I praised you for being cute because I love you..." Alia was stunned suddenly.She thought that she had perfectly ignored the part of her confession not long ago, but she didn't expect to dig a hole for herself all of a sudden, and she wanted to die.

Just when she was thinking about how to change the subject, she suddenly heard an unexpectedly gentle but slow sentence——

"I love you too. I fell in love with you without knowing why, without reason, without reason. I love you without hesitation, pure and humble; I love you like this, because I don't know any other way ..."

Aliya looked at him in shock, and for a long time still suspected that she had heard wrong.However, after she looked over, his limbs suddenly stiffened, his face blushed to the base of his ears, but his eyes persisted and refused to move away—he only had her in his eyes.

"r?"

"Hmm. It's from Pablo Neruda's Sonnet No. 17."

"..." Well, he was just reciting poems to her.

"That's what I wanted to say. Alicia, I feel more comfortable with you than I've ever felt before. I hope to see you every day, like Robert Browning said, with you aged."

"..." Oh... well, my heart is about to rebel.

The two of them just blushed, completely forgetting what to say afterwards.The hands that held each other tightened tacitly.

"Am I dreaming?" Aliya glanced at him, she seemed to understand something, and smiled with a little pride of happiness.

"I think so do I," he replied, his face finally less red, a little more natural, "There is another stanza in Neruda's poem: Let me love you more than this: where I am not, you are not; we So close that your hand on my chest is mine, and you close your eyes when I fall asleep."

"I really hope I don't wake up all the time. However, after I wake up, I can still see you." Just like this, no matter how difficult it is, she has the courage to face the whole world.Aliya snuggled into his arms, oh my god, whether it was in her sleep or in reality, she could finally occupy this place justifiably.

After enjoying a moment of tranquility, she seemed to think of something. After taking a deep breath, she said, "You can watch the videotape. To be honest, I really want to know what's inside."

She has too many ulterior secrets, and I really want to know which one "Horton" knows and chooses to send to Reid.

"If sent to bau for appraisal?" He was asking for her opinion.

In fact, another reason why he didn't dare to watch it was because he was afraid that the tape would be automatically destroyed after it was played.In this way, a lot of information is likely to be missed in one look.This also means that Aliya will face more danger.

Therefore, he hopes to send it to the group and get everyone's help to analyze the true purpose and identity of "Horton".

"Yes, I believe you." Aliya readily agreed, and she also believed that this would be the best way, "If you think it is necessary, I can watch from the side, after all, this is my secret, no People will know better than me."

"Don't worry about me." Feeling his worry, she smiled even brighter, and waved her small fist, "Let that Horton go! I won't be knocked down by him."

He likes Alicia like this, he likes everything about her.

"Actually, instead of calling him 'Horton', it's better to call him 'Anonymous'." Seeing that she regained her energy, Reid also smiled, a little shy, but when it comes to the knowledge base, it is no longer easy to forget the words, "After I received the package, I compared a lot of information, and finally found the most suitable one—"
