[Zhongyingmei] Hello stranger

On the plane, the behavior analysis team has learned the basic information of the three victims based on Garcia's further investigation——

Dani Holden, 22 years old.A senior at the Littleton School of Business went out to a party and never came back. No one reported the crime.

Karen Miller, 28.A single woman, a Lakewood native, whose broken-down car was parked near a gas station in the suburbs.No one reported the case, and according to the preliminary statement of her boss, she did not come to the company the day before the body was found.

Emma Fox, 26 years old.Traveling by car alone, no one reported the crime.According to her boyfriend's preliminary statement, Zeng failed to contact her the night before the body was found.

In terms of unsub's choice of victim type, what is certain at present is that he prefers young, beautiful women with black hair and brown eyes.

After getting off the plane, Hodge met with the inspector to instruct them how to communicate with the media, and went with Emily to the scene of the abandoned body and the home of the third victim to investigate.Rossi and Reid stayed at the police station to check the victim's body, while Morgan and jj went out to the third victim's boyfriend's house after learning about the situation from the family and friends of the first two victims.

Shirley, who was waiting a little further down the street from the Denver Police Station, noticed through the microscopic binoculars that JJ walked out of the police station and got into the black Chevrolet SUV with Morgan for government officials.

Seeing the front of the car turn towards her, Shirley took out the car key, opened the door and got out of the car, looking at the phone facing the hotel beside her.

Seeing their car passing by through the mobile phone screen, Shirley quickly got back in the car and drove forward.Turning left into another block, she sped forward on the road parallel to the hotel across from them, turned left again and drove slowly on the street perpendicular to it.

Seeing that their car was driving a little far ahead of her, Shirley sped up the car a little, and then followed them at a constant speed while maintaining a safe distance.Seeing that they ended up parked outside a white house, Shirley parked the car in the underground parking lot of a nearby mall.

Put on a large black sports coat over the short skirt, change the high heels and put on a pair of casual shoes, pull all the blond hair into the hairnet and put on a black tennis cap.With a pair of sunglasses on the bridge of her nose, Shirley carefully looked around, squatted down to tie her shoelaces when passing the car, and glued the tracker to the bottom plate of the car.

After tying up her shoes, Shirley walked forward with her gloves in her pockets, turned left to the side of the house, and hid from the window to watch the situation inside the house.

And the jj in the house is asking Emma's boyfriend about her situation, "We know that the police have talked to you, but we hope to know more about Emma. This will help us find the murderer, so you Would you mind talking about something about her?"

He looked sleepy, limp on the sofa, lightly covering his mouth with his right hand propped on his left arm, and nodded dully.Looking up at JJ, who was sitting on the single sofa with a concerned expression, and Morgan, who was standing beside her with a serious expression but regretful eyes, "Emma, ​​she... When I didn't contact her that night, I thought to myself Tian will go to the appointed place to find her, so I don't worry too much... She is very friendly to everyone, and even takes care of the injured birds in the woods... I can't imagine anyone can be so cruel to her Vibrant, caring people. Even..."

Recalling the news of her death before, when he went to the police station, regardless of persuasion, he insisted on seeing her again and again, but what he saw was... an incomplete corpse that lacked her head and was divided into messy and bloody pieces.He couldn't help crying with his head in his hands, "...why, why did this happen to her!"

In this situation, jj couldn't tell him that Unsub took advantage of Emma's helpful character to snatch her away, and just watched him quietly waiting for him to calm down.Besides shaking his head regretfully, Morgan could only accompany him silently with jj to vent his sadness and despair.

He gradually calmed down, wiped away his tears with the back of his hand, raised his fingers and pressed the corners of his eyes.Weakly leaning on the armrest beside him, he glanced at jj apologetically.And jj said that he didn't need to mind, raised his hand, and said softly with sincere eyes: "It's okay, we... can understand."

There were many complicated emotions in her eyes, which made him feel that what she said was not just perfunctory comforting himself, but that she could really understand.He dropped his hands and leaned back, looked up at Morgan, and said, "We can go on."

Morgan nodded with grateful and encouraging eyes, and asked in a serious and serious tone: "You told the police before that you plan to travel, so why didn't you go out together?"

He replied hesitantly, "Emma...she is a freelance composer, and she often has some whims. Like this trip, she came to me after preparing everything. I said I need some time to do it. Prepare, but she is unwilling to let go of the plan, so she set off first."

Recalling the questioning of the family members and friends of the first two victims, JJ looked up at Morgan and asked tentatively, "Does she often do this?"

He couldn't read the brief eye contact between the two of them, and nodded after a moment's pause, "Yes, she occasionally has some whim, some willfulness... There will be some small quarrels, but that's nothing."

Morgan asked again: "Where did she propose travel plans to you?"

He frowned in confusion, and looked at JJ in confusion, "Does it matter?"

JJ nodded affirmatively with his lips in his mouth, he thought for a while and replied: "It's downstairs in my company."

Morgan: "Did you notice anything unusual nearby, like the person watching you talking or a car that lingered for a long time?"

He thought about it carefully, and finally shook his head, "Why do you ask this?"

The two looked at each other, and JJ said: "The suspect may have been eyeing her at that time."

His expression became sad again, but he didn't think much about why he was staring at her.Under the guidance of Morgan and jj, he is still like the friend of the first victim, and he also doesn't think there is anything strange around him.

After asking a few more questions, JJ stood up and thanked him, then turned around and followed Morgan out the door.

Before they could go far, he called out to them, pleading in his eyes, "...will you find her...head?"

JJ didn't speak out quickly, Morgan replied solemnly: "We will do our best."

Going back to the car and sitting down, Morgan and JJ discussed for a while, then called Hodge, "Hodge, we have found something in common. The three victims all had a certain degree of control over the people around them, it must be Make him think of something. We're back."

After hanging up the phone, Morgan shook his head helplessly and looked at jj, while the latter looked at the house not far away, "How could he think that his pampering would bring these things."

Morgan sighed silently and drove away.Shirley, who was hiding on the side of the house, saw their car leaving, turned her head to look at the unhappy man on the sofa in the house, frowned and walked towards the underground parking lot.

Using a tablet linked to a tracker, Shirley waited for their car to leave and followed the original route back to the Denver police station.The behavior analysis team is in the conference room provided by the inspector, further discussing the case based on the latest clues.

Morgan mentioned another similarity between the victims, except for their appearance. "Dani was out shopping with two roommates, but she received an invitation to a party temporarily, and after all kinds of persuasion, she dragged them to the party. As for Emma, ​​she For the temporary trip she proposed, her boyfriend dropped his original work plan and compromised with her."

JJ went on to say: "According to the description of Karen's boss, she is a vigorous and rigorous person with a rigorous work attitude. Her last call was to a subordinate, because he made some mistakes in work and severely criticized him. , and told him what he should do in the future."

Rossi concludes on this point: "It seems that they just appeared at the wrong time and were killed because of some excessive dominance over others, which aroused his memories. After that, he followed them for a while, waiting for the right time to adapt. He abducted them in a calm manner. It has to be said that he was extremely angry and was able to do this in a short period of time without leaving any traces. His thinking is quite clear, and he must have received a higher education."

Reid: "Judging from the autopsy, he must have a certain understanding of modern medicine. But even so, he still needs a lot of time and a certain space to complete the dismemberment. In addition, he is constantly wandering around in various cities In the meantime, he'll need a van."

"There are no similar cases anywhere, and Garcia is looking to see if there are any commonalities in the place where he first met them," Hodges said.

While talking, Morgan's phone rang, "Hey, Myangel, tell us some good news."

Apparently other people have become accustomed to this kind of intimate address between them, Morgan turned on the voice and put the phone on the table so that everyone could hear the latest clues she brought, "Okay - no similar cases have been found yet, But I stumbled across a burger place near the mall where Dani and her friend were. There was a burger place near Emma's boyfriend's business, and there was a burger place near the gas station where Karen's car broke down They're all the same brand, I'm not sure if it's just a coincidence...so I searched around three more dump sites and guess what? Turns out there's the same brand of burger joints near those three locations .”

Everyone looked at each other, and Emily said, "Two may be a coincidence, but more than three are definitely a pattern."

Morgan: "So he followed his delivery route to determine the location of the crime, which would narrow the scope of unsub a lot. Garcia, try to determine the company that matches the route from the food delivery providers of these six burger restaurants."

Garcia quickly finished the cross-comparison, "Okay, since we don't know what kind of ingredients he shipped, and it seems that all the companies that provide ingredients are following the same route, so there are still three companies after finalization... "

Reed recalled that the body was refrigerated, "leaving the company that delivered the food that needed to be refrigerated."

Garcia chose one of the meat providers, "Okay, there are a total of ten deliverymen going this route, give me a few others."

jj: "He is between 35 and 45 years old and has lived with his mother since he was a child. He has worked in medical care or funeral work, but was expelled for some personal reasons. When he was a teenager, he was convicted of torture and killing She received serious warnings from her neighbors for harassing small animals or harassing her female classmates, and she never changed after repeated admonitions."

Just when Garcia thought he could find uusub in one click, the result was somewhat unexpected, "No."

Read obsessed with unsub's experience with cadavers, "Try one of the medical students who got expelled for their poor treatment of cadavers."

"Still nothing..." Garcia quickly flipped through the information of ten people, "Actually, they all seem to be good citizens..."

Hodge considered that employees might switch shifts privately, "expanded the scope of the search and searched among all the delivery staff."

Garcia operates again, and the dark-haired man in Denver who talks to Shirley appears on the screen, "There is one! His only hobby as a teenager seems to be dissecting the neighbor's dog... was once banned for doing experiments on corpses without permission." Disqualified as a physician, his father left shortly after his mother gave birth to him. He is in Glendale at the moment and I sent you his information!"

Morgan picked up the phone, turned off the voice and praised "You are the best".After that, he hung up the phone and followed Hodge and his party to Glendale.
