Getting them to come is a formality investigation and getting them ready to attend a memorial service for officers who died in the line of duty.

They were brought into the reception room to take statements, which didn’t need us, I stood outside the reception room and looked at hotch and jj, I was a little embarrassed and said: “I know it’s not Friday, I should go to class, but The target of the unsub this time is my friend, so I want to participate in the investigation."

H stared at me for a while, he was very serious when he had a straight face, I couldn't help turning my head after holding on for a while, and he said: "We know, Reid said pass."

Reid is indeed a little angel!It was so sweet.

I sighed in my heart, and then I heard Hotch continue to say: "You go to the school now, Reid and Elle are there to investigate. After all, you are a student there, so you will be less conspicuous."

Thank you so much hotch!How dare you create an opportunity for us like this!

"Okay sir!" I said goodbye to them happily, and hailed a taxi at the gate of the police station to go to school. I had all of Laura's class schedules, and I knew what class she was taking, so I went straight to that classroom.

This is a professional course of their college, and there are not many students who arrive. I took a few glances from the back door to confirm where she was sitting. When I found Laura, I also found Reid and Elle. They were sitting behind Laura. In the first row, Reid was sitting upright and listening to the teacher's lecture, and there was a circle around it, which meant that no one would hear us even if we spoke.

I slipped in through the back door and sat next to Laura. She turned her head and looked at me. The pale face shocked me!

Her spirit is very bad, she looks very depressed, she doesn't seem to have much makeup today, her eyes are a little puffy, and when she looks at me, she shows a sad expression - this is much better than my worst expectation, At least she could still cry.

Laura looked at me, and there were tears in her eyes again: "Is that policeman really dead?"

I hugged her silently and lent her shoulders like a man. I could feel her tears soaking my shoulders. It took a while for her to stop crying. It was very red, but her complexion improved a lot. She even looked at my shoulder and smiled: "How does it feel to be cried by a beautiful woman?"

"It's great." I smiled cooperatively. She took out a tissue and blew her nose vigorously, then rolled it into a ball and put it on the table. After thinking about it, I asked her what I had been thinking about before: " Do you...would you like to live in my house? The law and order here is not bad. "

"I don't need it yet." Laura shook her head, gritted her teeth, and seemed to be full of fighting spirit, "I want to know how far he can push me!"

I'm glad she recovered, but when I think of Reid's reasoning about that stk, I feel very worried, but it's obviously impossible for Laura to leave her battlefield now, it seems that I can only stay with her to ensure her safety up.

Elle, who was sitting in the back, also spoke: "I also think it's a good idea to live at home."

"No." Laura refused resolutely, looking at Elle and then at me, "I know you care about me, Maggie, but two people died because of me-even if it wasn't my will, I still feel very sad Guilty, I want to face him, I don't want to escape anymore."

We didn't speak, because letting the target take the initiative to face STK is a very dangerous thing, we all know this very well, but it is also very important to keep Laura's fighting spirit, so after hearing this sentence, for a while we No one spoke to Laura about the danger of this unsub.

Laura seemed to have fully recovered, and some blush appeared on her pale face just now: "I can't compromise with such a person, otherwise James' death really doesn't make any sense."

Elle showed a comforting smile: "I will follow you home, don't worry."

"I'll go too." I looked at Elle, pursed my lips, and quickly thought of an excuse, "Of course I'm not worried, it's just that Unsub is in school, and he probably knows about Laura's friendship status, Elle, are you right? Laura is considered a stranger, and it is likely to arouse his vigilance."

"But I'm different. His attention should be on Laura, and he won't know much about me. It's not easy to be seen through if I take you there." With so many excuses, after I finished speaking, I felt that what I said was quite reasonable.

Elle thought for a while, and seemed to have nothing to refute, so she nodded in agreement, and Reid's eyes moved from the blackboard to me: "Then if you go, I will go too."

I stared at him with wide eyes, and he blinked at me a few times quickly, which was a blow to my heart, I almost immediately dispelled the idea of ​​rebuttal, and convinced myself.

Well, it's good to let him follow, at least he's safer by my side, and he's so weak, so he shouldn't arouse unsub's vigilance, right?He doesn't even look as strong as elle.

I convinced myself almost immediately, and seeing Elle next to me opened her mouth as if she wanted to refute, I hurriedly said: "Okay, we can say it's because I heard what happened last night, don't worry about Laura, if you say that, go The more people there are, the less likely it is to be suspicious, we should find some more people.”

Elle thought about it and agreed with me, and of course Laura didn't have any objections.

The news of S's death caused quite a stir in the school. Many people knew about Laura. The news of police officer Cary's death last night also took up a place in the local newspaper this morning, so not many people knew about it. We I asked a few classmates who had a good relationship with her, both men and women, they obviously cared about Laura, and they all agreed to go to Laura's house after school for a while.

In the end, there were about [-] people who went there. Some of them brought people who were not familiar with Laura according to our request, and there were a few friends of James. These people were also investigated by Elle and Reid, and it was confirmed that there was no problem. Only finally agreed to the list.

The two of them are not conspicuous in this group of people, especially Reid, he looks like a top student who is younger than us, and Elle is much younger than formal clothes in casual clothes, and he smiles like we are the same age people.

Those people left after sitting at Laura's house for a short time. They came only to confuse Unsub, distract him, and keep him from noticing Reid and Elle, but such a big movement will inevitably alarm that Unsub. I thought about it a long time ago. Elle sat next to Laura to give her psychological counseling since they left, and told her what to say: "Don't be nervous, we are by your side, try to calm his emotions and follow his words .”

About half an hour after the last person except us left, Unsub really called. Laura was a little flustered and glanced at us. Elle stood up from the sofa with her. Reid had already answered the call from Garcia's office: "Garcia, can you find out where this call is coming from?"

Reid hung up the phone quickly, and nodded towards Laura: "Try to delay the time, Garcia has already sent the address to Hotch, they are not around here, not the person who left just now."

Laura nodded, took a deep breath, and answered the phone: "Hello?"

I stood relatively close and could hear what he said clearly. I didn't have the slightest impression of that person's voice. He was definitely not our acquaintance. He said, "Why haven't three people come out yet?"

"No..." Laura immediately wanted to refute. Elle quickly wrote a sentence in the notebook and showed it to her on her chest. She paused and read it obediently, "How do you know?"

"Don't try to fool me honey, I'll count," he said softly, sounding nothing like a psycho in his voice, and he said slowly, "I know one is, I see it, and the other What about two people?"

Laura glanced at Reid and the others, pursing her lips vigorously: "They are my friends."

"Shh, don't try to lie to me, my dear." The man's tone seemed to be coaxing a disobedient child. It always sounded particularly scary under such circumstances. I looked around the living room, and there was no Seeing something like a camera, Reid took a step towards me, shook his head in disapproval, and signaled me not to look around.

Unsub's tone was very gentle: "What are you doing now? Are you standing on the phone or sitting on the sofa? I guess it's standing."

"You stand beautifully, just like a beautiful swan." His tone sounded like he was immersed in his own fantasy. Reid was standing beside me, so close that I could only look up at him : "Is there a camera in the room?"

"Probably not." Reid said with a frown. Elle carefully placed the notebook in front of her. Reid and I just blocked one side, and the other side was the sofa. Even if there is a camera in the room, it shouldn't be able to capture what we are doing now. .

Elle wrote another sentence quickly, and Laura quickly said, "So, what are you calling this time?"

"Oh, I just want to ask when those people leave, I don't like people in your house, you know." The man said softly, Laura showed a very disgusted expression, but she obviously still remembered Elle's teaching, Followed his words: "Of course I know, but they are Maggie's friends, I can't drive them away."

"My friend?" He seemed a little surprised, but quickly said in a gentle tone, "Of course, of course, then what are they doing here?"

Elle wrote another short sentence, and Laura watched and read it out: "Because of what happened yesterday, you scared me a little bit."

She showed a nauseous expression, and her tone of voice was not so normal. Fortunately, it sounded like the unsub didn't care too much: "Oh, what happened yesterday, I didn't mean to scare you, dear, in fact, as long as you are more obedient, I wouldn't do that at all... are you all right?"

Laura frowned and couldn't continue, but at this time Elle wrote another sentence, Laura shook her head a little bit unbearably, expressing that she really didn't want to say that, I patted her on the shoulder, and she closed her eyes He swallowed hard, bit his lips and said, "I'm fine... my dear."

"Obaby, you don't know that I'm waiting for you to speak every day," Unsub's voice is full of disgusting sweetness, which makes me a little sick, I can't imagine Laura's current mood, but he doesn't feel it, continue Said in a voice immersed in love, "We haven't chatted like this for a long time, and the eye contact can no longer satisfy me."

Laura held my arm tightly with one hand, and the knuckles of the other hand holding the phone were already white, obviously very hard. She even gritted her teeth and smiled ferociously at the phone. What she said But very briskly: "Why don't we see each other, dear?"

"Although I'm glad you said that, but we meet every day, I hope you can take the initiative to come to me." Unsub laughed twice and hung up the phone.

Laura threw the phone on the ground at once, and angrily threw herself on the sofa. The phone bounced on the carpeted floor, and then remained silent.

Reid has checked the living room back and forth, and shook his head at us: "There is no camera in the room, it may be installed outside the door."
