[Zhongyingmei] Hello stranger

Afterwards, the group could neither find clues from the sniping point nor gain more gains through the bullet casing information.Angrily, he returned to the Philadelphia Police Station to meet up with Rossi and Emily, expecting them to make a breakthrough on the other hand.

In the conference room, after listening to a series of retellings of Nate and Brother Vanesan, Shirley felt that the trivia she heard in the secret room was closer to what the latter experienced. The photo of him felt a little unbelievable, "It's him..."

Seeing her raising her head and frowning as she fell into memory, JJ asked suspiciously, "Have you seen him?"

"...Yes." Shirley answered her with a dazed expression, quickly recovered her senses and glanced at her, put down the photo and thought for a while and said: "When I was five years old, my father and some friends went to visit the Magic Garden together. , and took me there by the way. It is a garden made up of all kinds of weird things, I followed him all the way, and when I saw them stop at one place, I walked around and watched at will."

"Then..." Shirley licked her lips, and glanced at the photo listlessly, "I met him. He was about my age at the time, and he was looking at it seriously, or looking at the graffiti on the wall. I was curious and asked him what he was looking at so seriously..."

Recalling the carefree childhood life, Shirley felt a little relieved briefly, raised her eyebrows and continued: "He analyzed the deep meaning of that graffiti for me in a serious way, and I laughed at him for a while. Why is he a child? It’s so complicated to think about. He kept silent and didn’t say any more. I thought I might be a bit too much. I thought about telling him what I thought of when I saw the graffiti..."

"I...it's him, Alex." Shirley realized something with certainty, and couldn't help but lower her head and frown to look at her toes.But after Rick's turn of events, she was obviously much more resilient, or emotionally numb, "I told him about Alice in Wonderland. We walked around and chatted. For a long time, he asked me to wait for him to get home to pick up something. But before he came back, my father found me and took me home. I never saw him again, let alone know that Vanesan’s brother is him.”

"He hadn't been adopted at that time, but the community he lived in was still some distance away..." Everyone was silent for a moment, and Rossi said, "His real home may be nearby."

"Then let's go and have a look!" Sherlock regained his energy immediately, stood up and said, "It must not be a coincidence that he will approach you again later, and you know so many things about him but he didn't silence you , he probably still has the same innocent feelings for you as a child. Anyway, what he told you is probably his real name. Adding his surname, I believe we can make a breakthrough soon after we pass by."

Shirley nodded thoughtfully, and heard Hodge say: "Jj, you take Shirley back to the hotel to rest first. We just need to continue investigating."

"Okay." JJ agreed, got up and took Shirley back to the hotel.The two returned to the hotel and sat down on the sofa.After a moment of silence, JJ turned his head to look at her and asked, "What are you thinking?"

Xue Li came back to her senses and smiled at her, raised her eyebrows a little tiredly, propped her head and said, "It's just... I feel like I've had one big dream after another, and every time I wake up, I get one dream after another. Unexpected ending... a little tired, or a little unfounded worry."

JJ sat up, faced her, thought for a while and asked with a smile: "It's mainly Morgan? I don't know how to trust? I think...you just have to ask yourself carefully to find the answer in the deepest part of your heart."

"I can't even trust myself..." Shirley smiled reluctantly and shook her head. She lowered her head and her nose suddenly felt sore. She raised her hand and squeezed the corner of her eyes to look at her again. "I'm scared, you know? I never thought They are all people around me, people who have talked and laughed with me, if... someday..."

Seeing that she was about to cry, JJ raised his hand and hugged her, patting her on the back to stop her words, "He won't, he won't hurt you. You can trust him without reservation... "

Xue Li leaned on her shoulder, raised her eyes without letting the tears flow out of her eyes, and asked feebly: "How can I be sure about those...?"

"Do you trust me?" JJ asked, and immediately got an affirmative answer, followed by affirmative: "Then trust me, and you can trust him too."

Shirley closed her eyes, hugged her tightly, and didn't answer.Not long after JJ left at night, he heard the doorbell, opened the door, folded his hands on his chest, and looked at Morgan standing outside the door with a little anxiety.

Morgan pursed her lips, rubbed her hands on her waist helplessly, and asked, "...can I come in?"

Shirley looked away, bit her lip, nodded, put down her hands and changed her stance to watch him close the door and turn around, and asked, "So... you only found his photo?"

Morgan nodded, approached her slowly, and stopped when there was still a distance, "But according to Holmes, Jacob has been arrested in England. The hundred girls under him have also been rescued." , including the daughter of the Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom."

"That's great." Shirley couldn't help feeling very relieved after hearing this, and subconsciously bent the corners of her lips, "It's all thanks to you."

Seeing that she was in a more relaxed mood, Morgan nodded with a smile, took a step closer and took her hand to hold it gently, stroked it carefully a few times and looked up at her, "Why are you so nervous? Are you afraid of me?"

"I..." Shirley frowned and looked away, "I'm sorry."

"It's okay." Morgan pulled her bracelet around his waist, raised his hand to stroke her face, and looked at her seriously for a while, "I can understand. I know what it feels like when you trust someone so much Sometimes the other party gives you a fatal blow without any warning, making you hard to guard against. I also know that after experiencing such a thing, you will feel panic and uneasy about everything around you, and you don’t even know what to believe..."

"I also know that you feel that you seem to need protection, and you really do, so you still worry about whether the people around you are just for self-proof..." Seeing Shirley withdraw her constantly dodging eyes and look back at herself, Morgan held her closer to his arms, kissed her lips against the tip of her nose, and said in a low and firm voice, "I really want to protect you, but it's different from the protection of victims at work. I want to protect you because I love you. I love you, the person who gave me the courage to love again, the person who is bruised but persistent, the person who makes me have a new desire for life."

Xue Li couldn't help sobbing a few times, quickly stopped and continued to look at him silently, but unconsciously entangled with his tongue after feeling the soft force on her lips.After a few back and forth, he pushed out his tongue weakly, listening to his still gentle voice falling into his ears, "Feel your heart, don't be afraid to love. But if you still can't let go, it's okay, I will wait for you. No matter how long, I will wait...just tell me if you prefer me to leave now, the decision is in your hands."

After listening to his words, Shirley unconsciously grasped the corner of his clothes, and then threw herself into his arms, sobbing, "No...I want you to stay..."

"I know... I'm here..." Morgan raised his head and blinked, wrapped her tightly in his arms, and put warm palms on her head, "Everything is over, and life will be better in the future, I I promise."

His embrace is like her safe haven, like a ray of sunshine that she can reach at any time, protecting her from feeling cold and lonely even in the stormy night.She didn't have time to dodge and didn't want to dodge, she hid in his arms and nodded heavily.

A few days later, Shirley still participated in the Indy 500 in Dallas. Charles still won the championship and she became the second.This result made her once again become the topic of media people scrambling to report, and half a year later she was even exposed to the headline news of her marriage proposal.

And this was naturally learned by Alex who was stationed in the United States. After several verifications, he learned that the exact time was in mid-October. After thinking a little bit, he left for Provence, France.A week later, I stood in the distance and observed the couple who solemnly made a promise in the sea of ​​lavender flowers. When I just put down the binoculars and was about to leave, I was surrounded by five FBIs in uniform.

Hodge, the leader, approached him with his gun raised, "raised his hands above his head."

Alex looked at him following the source of the sound, frowning from the scorching sun.He raised his hands and lowered his head, with no expression on his face, and was then handcuffed by two police officers, "Alex Miller, because you planned and participated in many kidnapping cases, you imprisoned and assisted in the torture of many minors. People, drug production and drug trafficking, organization of prostitution, and illegal organ trade. You have the right to remain silent, but what you said..."

The crowd in the sea of ​​flowers was attracted by the movement here. Shirley, who was wearing a white wedding dress, turned her head to look at the backs of the six people who had turned around here, then turned her gaze back to Morgan, who was in a suit and leather shoes, and raised her eyebrows, "You caught him, so……"

Before she could finish speaking, Morgan quickly continued: "So we can continue the wedding with more peace of mind."

Shirley paused for a second, then frowned with a confused smile, "...Isn't this just a plan proposed by Holmes?"

Morgan took a deep look at her, took her hand and held it tightly, and said with a little unsteady breath, "...marry me."

Shirley was a little excited for a moment, she looked away at the guests who hadn't recovered her attention, and asked, "...Are you sure?"

"I really hope you can become my wife." Morgan nodded affirmatively, leaning on her forehead and continued earnestly: "I want to marry you, not just to cooperate with Holmes' plan to arrest people, I want to marry you, I want I want to wear the ring in my hand for you with my own hands. But whether you want to marry me, whether you want to put the ring in your hand on my hand...is your choice."

Shirley looked up at him with a smile, leaned close and touched the tip of his nose, "I think."

Morgan couldn't help but smile, stepped back a few steps, exchanged rings with her under the gaze of the returning guests, and kissed her passionately amidst the sound of blessings.

-

One year later, in the morning, Shirley received a call from Hodge, and she changed into work clothes and accompanied Morgan to the prison.When the prison guard prepared everything and Morgan wanted to go in to make sure it was safe, Shirley stopped him, "This is not conducive to obtaining more clues."

Although she used to be a policeman, she is not now after all, Morgan was very worried, "But..."

"It's okay." Shirley nodded calmly, and shook his hand reassuringly, "I'll be fine, trust me."

"Okay." Morgan nodded with a frown, and could only watch her turn around and go in, "I'm right outside, don't put yourself in danger."

"Okay." Shirley nodded, opened the door and walked in.Waiting for the prison guard to leave, he stepped forward and sat on the chair opposite Alex, who was wearing a prison uniform, "I'm here."

Alex looked at her carefully, nodded, but didn't speak.Shirley skipped beating around the bush and said straight to the point: "You should know why I came."

Alex lowered his head and frowned, "Well, I know."

Xue Li took a deep breath, leaned back and crossed her arms, turned her gaze to the right instead of looking at him, and asked after a long time: "Why?"

Alex moved his head left and right, and naturally knew what she was asking, "I just want to get to know you."

Shirley laughed immediately, and looked back at him with a half-smirk, "Know me? I told you my name! Where I live! I told you everything! You won't come to me? You have to let you Dad kidnapped me? Let him kill my dad? Sell me to Rick and trick him to be my friend? You...why do you do this to me over and over again? You're still the one in the garden listening to me The story man?"

Facing her accusation, Alex moved uncomfortably, trying to explain, "I tried to contact you, but I couldn't let others find out, so I asked your sister to hand you a letter. You No reply, I thought you had forgotten me!"

"Oh." Shirley responded with a stiff tone, stared at him for a few times, dragged the chair back, stood up and walked out without looking back.After hearing his cry, he turned around and asked angrily: "So this is your purpose? You want to push everything on me? Then what? Let me blame myself for the reason why I am like that all my life What happened to me all because I didn't open the envelope that I didn't know who handed it in? You better save it! Because I know very clearly that none of this is my fault! I! Did nothing wrong! "

"Rosa." Alex waved his thumbs weakly, looked up at her, and said, "I'm sorry. I was disappointed that you didn't reply, so my dad asked me what's wrong. I told him, and he asked I want to be friends with you, I said yes. Then he kidnapped you, I'm sorry, I... Actually this is the way our family does things, I hope you can forgive me, look at the one we spent together For the afternoon's sake."

"No, I can't forgive you." Shirley took a few steps back, and looked at him silently for a moment after he looked up.Walking back to the interrogation table and standing still, the diamond ring on the ring finger of his left hand propped on the table was a bit dazzling, he pondered for a moment and said: "I can understand your thinking, but I will never accept it, so it doesn't make much sense."

Alex glanced at the ring on her hand, frowned, "I know."

Shirley tapped the table a few times, then stopped to look at him as soon as she turned around, and asked thoughtfully, "What did you want to go home with?"

Alex waved his hands and smiled, then asked, "Is it still important?"

Shirley thought for a while, then walked back across from him.He leaned over to look at him, raised his eyebrows in a funny way, and said with a sense of nostalgia: "I don't know, I just think... If you didn't turn around and run away at that time, if Jill didn't tell me that you were a stranger I opened a love letter from someone else and I read it...Maybe, maybe the ending between us will be different."

"...a ring." Alex stared at her blankly for a while, then lowered his head and repeated, "The ring my mother gave me."

"Are you sure?" Shirley couldn't help laughing, pulled a chair and sat down casually, and looked down at him, "You're going to give such an important thing to a little girl you just met so hastily and you're only five years old. age?"

"People in our family are relatively precocious." Alex smiled, nodded, looked at her, and said hesitantly: "And only when you laughed at me for a serious moment, I began to have a strong desire... ...hope to see your smile every day in the future.”

Xue Li lowered her eyes, silently scratched her hair, and heard him say with a sigh: "But all of this is impossible."

"No." Shirley immediately continued, "Not to each of you."

Looking up and seeing his puzzled expression, Shirley sat up straight and leaned forward, reminding: "You have something more important to give me, Alex... maybe we can change the fate of the rest of you, You are very clear, aren't you? What you have done is not appropriate, are you sure you want other people to continue to persist needlessly?"

He pondered and didn't answer any more, and Shirley just retreated and waited quietly. After a long time, he heard his decision, "Give me the pen and paper."

Shirley handed it over immediately, looked at him after writing two pages, then looked back at him for a while, stood up and looked at him for a moment, "If this is true and we can save everyone, maybe I will feel sorry for you when you were young. Ignorant selective amnesia, but I will never forgive you."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked out of the closed interrogation room, handed the list to Morgan for safekeeping, and left the prison with him in relief.And Alex was silent alone, waiting for the prison guard to bring him back to the cold cell.

But after turning around, some people worked hard to find the light, while others stayed in the darkness forever.
