Chapter 2 The Gaze from Heaven

If something has the possibility of going bad, no matter how small the possibility is, it will always happen.

--Murphy's Law

If I had known earlier, I would not have gone out this morning.

When the BAU crime detection team visited the school yesterday, Uriah considered whether to ask for leave today.It's a pity that after a night of deliberation, she still went to school with a fluke mentality. After all, there are so many people in the school, what is the chance of encountering the murderer?

Huh, that's interesting.

Uriah was also the first one to arrive in the classroom today. As soon as she put down her schoolbag, she heard screams from outside. She froze for two seconds and ran to the door to lock it. A distraught face suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, and both of them froze for half a second. The sudden encounter made the boy's eyes suddenly burst into despair, his arms instinctively strangled her neck, and the sharp kitchen knife touched the carotid artery.

"Jonathan! Let her go! You don't have to do this."

Morgan's gaze didn't waver at all. In his more than ten years of professional career, this kind of scene is too common. JJ glanced at Reid distractedly, he was a little surprised and flustered, but calmed down quickly.

And at this time, Uriah also calmed down, JJ watched her calmly and calmly, nodded subtly, and Uriah blinked back at her.

It was a familiar scene, no use being afraid, no use crying, struggling and running would make things worse. Uriah put one hand on the murderer's arm, his eyes saw the logo of two little people on the kitchen knife, oh hoo, double/flying people, and then the other arm hung down.

"We know what happened and they should be punished for what they did, but you paid too much. Jonathan, look at her, she is innocent, do you really want to hurt her?"

"Shut up! Shut up!" Jonathan became more emotional, he took a few steps back, his eyes were so red that they were about to bleed, "If you get any closer, I'll slit her throat! You don't even know what they did, She's innocent, she doesn't deserve this, what about me? Do I deserve it? Because I'm gay? I deserve it—"

Uriah subconsciously leaned back, the cold blade forced her not to breathe, her lungs ached.

"It wasn't your fault," Reid frowned, and he took a step forward, saying sincerely, "We know you didn't deserve that, but neither should she. Put the knife down, we'll make it He got what he deserved."

Jonathan was stunned, his chest ached sharply, the memories were unsightly, the sins were on his body, he hadn't finished his revenge, and there was one person who was not punished!However, all this has long been beyond his ability to bear, causing him to collapse in pain, look around...

"How should I live?"

Uriah's eyelashes fluttered slightly. She heard the almost silent words, as if his desperate heart was crying in the dark, and she was the only one who really heard the meaning of those words.

"Jonathan, let her go, you don't hurt her, and we won't hurt you."

Reid lowered his voice, softened, and his inducement seemed to be working.Suddenly Uriah's gaze lifted up, it was the first time she met his gaze after meeting, Reid will never forget that gaze, because no one has ever stared at him with that kind of warm gaze.

"It's too late..." Jonathan said grimly, "Put down the gun or I'll hurt her."

Uriah stared into those eyes, brown and chestnut, clear and warm, very different from the farewell in the memory, without a trace of grief, guilt or love.

"I said - put, shoot, shoot!" Jonathan repeated every word, and the blade pressed a line of blood red.

Reid's heart beat faster inexplicably, he controlled himself not to look into her eyes, and slowly lowered his body, "Okay, okay, I let go, don't hurt her."

"No..." Uriah closed her eyes, as if she couldn't see, so as not to recall the cruel scene, but she still felt chills all over her body. What did he say in the end?The waterfall that washed down was like a huge blade, stripping him away in an instant.

She would not let such a picture happen in front of her eyes for a second time.

The murderer's mood changed from extreme agitation to extreme calmness. This was not a good thing. Reid was a little worried. Fortunately, he had a companion behind him, so even if he lowered the gun, there would be no great danger.But he never expected that his actions would trigger a certain memory of the hostage, and her emotional changes made everyone terrified.

By the time everyone realized what Uriah was going to do, it was too late to stop it.

Uriah's hanging hand quietly pulled out the butterfly/butterfly/knife pinned to the back of her waist. The brain gave instructions, the body reacted, the palms were turned, and the fingers were cut. She practiced many times, and she would never make a mistake.

The sensation of the blade piercing into flesh and blood is simply tingling. The scream made Uriah's brain go blank for a moment, but the movement of the body continued instinctively. Twisting the handle, the blade cut across, and the sudden sharp pain would make one lose The ability to think and react, at this time, grab his arm hard, bend his body, use his back as a fulcrum, and throw the hostage-taker out!

"boom--"

Uriah stared at the stars and fell to the ground, completely exhausted. The members of the BAU team quickly regained their senses and stepped forward to suppress the criminal. Reid ran over to check on her first. His hand hadn't touched her neck yet. It was stopped by Uriah.

"I beg you," she gently held his wrist with her pale fingers, her voice was low and hoarse, "don't put down the gun."

Generally, when victims are rescued, they will subconsciously beg for hugs and warmth, which will give them a sense of security when they are frightened and panicked, and they can regain their sanity as soon as possible. Therefore, when Reid ran over, he subconsciously made a gesture of hugging and being hugged prepare.

But Uriah's reaction was not within the scope of any of his knowledge, so Reid was a little overwhelmed, and he blurted out: "Ok, It'sok... are you okay? You are hurt and you need treatment!"

Uriah reached out and wiped her neck, it was full of blood, the pain was only coming slowly now, she frowned, refused Reid's support, stood up slowly by herself, leaning on the wall, "I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine can be cured."

Once again, he averted his gaze.

Not right, very wrong.

Reid's brain is running fast, what has he overlooked, why is he completely clueless?

"Have we met before?"

Uriah stopped, turned her head, Reid's eyes were fixed on her face for every clue, and—

She passed out.

"Oh my god!"

Reid hurriedly caught her body, and shouted: "Medical team—medical team—"

Rossi watched from the sidelines for a long time, and at this moment said blankly: "Who can tell me what's going on?"

Morgan took a deep breath, "I want to know too."

[Location: School Doctor's Office]

"The wound is not serious, but long-term lack of sleep, mild malnutrition, and anemia may be due to psychological reasons. She seems to have been under great pressure, resulting in mental overload, so she fainted." The school doctor glanced at her. The medical record in Reid's hand, "Well, can you give it back to me?"

"Eh...thank you."

Uriah on the hospital bed was extremely lifeless, with long dark golden hair hanging loose, against the neat white sheets, her eyelashes were black and dense like a feather fan, making her look both slender and delicate.

[Uriah·Vogt]

"Reid, we should go."

"Allright."

On the way back to Quantico, Reid kept looking out the window, as if he was lost in thought or in a daze.

The car was also quiet.

JJ blinked his beautiful blue eyes, and several people exchanged glances.

"Why do I feel that I am useless today?" Rossi put away his phone, his tone was quite emotional, "This is the first time I have seen such a self-reliant victim, do you have any impression?"

"You mean Uriah Vogt?" JJ noticed that Reid's eyes moved slightly, it seems that this topic is very good, "She really surprised people."

"At first she was really scared, Jonathan appeared too suddenly," Morgan recalled the scene at that time, "but it was very strange, with a knife held to her throat, and her life was seriously threatened without any defense. The stress response was so calm that she didn't even scream, and she calmed down very fast."

"Maybe she has had this kind of experience before," Reid finally joined the topic, he said uncertainly: "Maybe something happened that affected her a lot, and it was very dangerous for her to do that at that time. If the hostage-taker Trained to overpower her with ease."

"I noticed what Jonathan seemed to say at the time, and that was the first place where her emotions changed," Rossi said appropriately, "and then you put the gun down, which is the real trigger point, and then She stabbed the captor with a knife and then made a neat rear throw, did she say something afterwards? Reid."

Reid hesitated, then looked up at Rossi, "She said, I'm not sure, I feel like she's begging me—don't put the gun down."

"Don't put the gun down?" Morgan asked suspiciously, "Do you have any clues?"

"That's what I want to know, too."

Uriah forgot how long she hadn't had a good night's sleep, maybe it was because the days had passed so long, she always thought of the days and nights when she lost him, her heart was gouged out one by one, and in the end there was only an empty heart In those times, only death can calm the pain.

"you're awake?"

Uriah didn't open his eyes, it was too heavy, "Professor?"

"how do you feel?"

"Not very good."

"Of course, you almost scared the school board to death." Professor Conant sighed, put a document on the bedside, and said slowly: "The school has provided an application for exchange students in Germany. Maybe you are willing to accept it. place, change your mood, and start over.”

"Start again?" Uriah smiled slightly. "Start what?"

"Vogt, listen, I don't know what happened to you to close your mind off music, but I know you haven't given up."

Outside the window, the twilight is sinking, and the campus wind is mixed with laughter.

"What you need now is to forgive yourself and accept yourself again." Professor Conant opened the curtain and whispered, "Stop punishing yourself!"

Uriah opened his eyes suddenly, his eyes were bleak and miserable, as if he was being cruelly punished, "I can't forgive that mistake, it can't be forgiven."

Professor Conant did not continue to persuade, he knew that sometimes people can only walk out by themselves, and no one can help, "Take care of your body, take a good rest, and come back to class in two days."

She closed her eyes again.

[Location: Quantico]

"Thanks, Garcia, I owe you a large caramel macchiato."

Reid took the document bag from Garcia, which was very light in terms of weight, probably only three pages.

"Oh, Honeyboy, the great magician Garcia is omnipotent, and she is willing to do anything for you." Garcia deftly moved the quill between her fingers, narrowing her eyes enchantingly, "If you will give me more More information?"

"I'm just," Reid smiled sheepishly, with some confusion, "I'm just, a little curious. If I can figure out the reason, maybe I'll know what to do."

"Oh~oh~ Curiosity is often the first step in developing a relationship. You really should replenish your sweet and pleasant hormones." Garcia laughed excitedly, and she gave him a paper rose in the pen holder, Said softly: "I sincerely pray that a beautiful love will come to you."

"Thank you, Garcia."

"My pleasure."
