"Dr. Lecter said so." Emma said, "It doesn't look like it should appear in a sandwich, does it? I never knew that brains could be eaten."

After so many years, although Isaac still believes in such nonsense as Aisha, he believes even more that some people will lose their humanity.However, reality is the best teacher, it will always refresh Issac's bottom line again and again, telling him——

You are too young.

When doubting Dr. Lecter at the beginning, BAU checked his purchase list, and there was nothing abnormal on it. Every purchase, from organic vegetables and fruits to meat, egg and milk, is the freshest and well-documented. Every time he entertains others, it is reasonable to increase the purchase volume.

There are no flaws, except for people saying that Dr. Lecter pays great attention to the quality of life, and it cannot be said that this is not good.

Isaac glanced at Reid, but found that the little doctor frowned quickly, then got up, "I'm going out to answer a call."

Emma, ​​who was sitting across from Reid, couldn't see the phone screen, but Isaac found that his phone screen didn't light up at all, which was just an excuse he made.

When Reid walked outside the door and began to talk, Isaac put down the coffee cup in his hand with some helplessness—he almost forgot the existence of this, and buckled the coffee inside—"It's revealed."

"What?" Emma was puzzled.

"I jumped out of the ambulance just now. I must have contacted the team leader over there, and I have called to ask the teacher." Isaac made up a reason without blinking his eyes, and successfully blocked Emma's next question.

Emma was indeed a little disappointed. She thought she had new clues, but her attention was quickly drawn to another direction, "Ambulance? Has someone had an accident?"

"It's nothing serious, just low blood sugar." Isaac didn't linger on this topic for a long time, "How are you getting along with May?"

Isaac thought that this would be a good topic, but in fact, it was indeed that Emma had too much dissatisfaction on this, which made her desire to confide very high.

A mean, arrogant, superficial, pompous.The image of a selfish, grim old woman took shape in Isaac's mind.

Holding the phone, Reid quickly dialed Garcia's number, and when he walked outside the door, the call happened to connect.

"Garcia, I need you to check again..." His voice was a little dry, and he couldn't help but cleared his throat before his voice became normal again. What Isaac could have guessed, how could Reid have missed it.And what Isaac didn't notice, he also remembered it clearly, for example, on the purchase list for the past month, there was no brains at all.What is behind this makes people shudder, Reid would rather doubt his memory and ask Garcia to check it again, rather than jump to conclusions directly.

However, no is no.

Reid thinks he needs to talk it over with the guys.

In the current situation, it is obviously not reassuring to leave Emma alone. Reid thought about it, and decided to go back alone, and let Isaac stay here with Emma.

When saying goodbye, Emma's depression caused by May has been relieved a lot. She took advantage of the opportunity and proposed to go together. She still hasn't forgotten that she hasn't seen Mrs. Jully yet. Even if she is dead, Emma Still want to see her.

"That's not pretty." Outside the police station, Reid had already gone in to join his colleagues, and Isaac stood at the door, emphasizing again.

"She is my mother." Emma insisted, "I know you think I am too young to be exposed to death too early, but that is my mother, no matter what she becomes, she is my mother. Even I may be scared, but I believe that she will comfort me in my dream."

"Okay, as you wish."

However, even with Isaac's compromise, it's not so easy for Emma to get in.Age is a big problem, and who can guarantee whether it will cause some irreparable psychological damage in the future.

Emma looked at Isaac tearfully.

Issac, who had already made friends with the forensic doctor, looked at the forensic doctor pitifully. As if Emma had been reminded, she aimed her big watery eyes at the forensic doctor, and finally got a compromise.

"I will not be there, and I will not admit that you have been allowed to..."

"Everything is done in private, and we assert ourselves because we can't go beyond the rules." Isaac continued very smoothly.

The forensic doctor rolled his eyes at him, and left with the information book.

Isaac checked with Emma again before pushing the door open. Although Emma felt helpless about not being trusted, she also felt the care in it, "I am not a child anymore, really, have you forgotten? This is not the first time I have seen a dead body. Could it be that my mother looks better than that one?" Are people more terrifying?"

Issac knows what it's like to witness the whole process of a serial killer's crime. Compared with this, it really pales in comparison.

Mrs. Jully's body has already been dissected and placed in a freezer. Isaac followed the labels one by one, and finally found the correct position. He pulled out the box where Mrs. Jully was located like a drawer, and Mrs. Jully's face was exposed without any concealment.

Emma stood behind Isaac, clutching the hem of his shirt tightly with both hands, her eyes were wide open, unwilling to miss a single point.

Maybe the theory of the soul sounds like a lost science, but the feeling of a living body and a dead body is completely different.Even Emma, ​​she dared to say that she knew her mother very well, but when the face was really revealed, she was a little afraid to recognize it.

It's very cold here, and Isaac can feel Emma's body shivering unconsciously.

"Emma?" he asked, "Are you okay?"

"She's really dead, isn't she?" Emma's voice was sharp, and Isaac couldn't help shivering with such sharpness.

"Yes." Isaac didn't want Emma to stay here any longer, "Emma, ​​let's leave, okay?"

Emma didn't make a sound, and Isaac just took it for granted.Pushing the grid back, Isaac pulled Emma away.

At first it was just a soft sob, then it became louder and louder, and finally it turned into an imageless wail.

"She's dead, she's really dead..." Emma seemed to want to cry all at once, and then fell asleep while crying, hiccupping from time to time in her sleep.

Of course, Isaac couldn't let her stay like this. In the end, he found a hotel nearby and settled Emma.Thanks to Hotch for the consultant card from the FBI that was given to him when he first arrived. Along the way, he was often stared at by people. Even when he opened the room, the front desk checked again and again, for fear of letting go of a well-dressed beast.

Isaac: "..."

Issac has nothing to do. In the current situation, Emma obviously can't leave her. Even if Emily or JJ is called, it will only be the hearts of others. Compared with the two, it is more useful for Issac to stay.

Isaac was staying in a suite, and he stayed outside in the living room, asked the waiter to look after Emma, ​​and started calling Hugh.

Employers have come here, what about him?

Hugh is fast asleep.

Although Emma acted as if she did not accept the news of Mrs. Jully's death, she was not alone. She also had an agent who took great care of this well-behaved client. When Emma did nothing, Holding the power of attorney from Mrs. Jully, she started the follow-up arrangements, the most important of which was the liquidation of the property.

Although Hugh looks all kinds of unreliable, but he is not useless.It's like Isaac has a lawyer's license that he doesn't have until now. After Emma knew this, she directly pushed the matter to him without hiring another lawyer.

As a result, Hugh, who has been living leisurely after graduation, has been busy as a dog.

He didn't know that his employer didn't even say hello, and ran directly to Baltimore, wanting to identify the body himself, until Isaac came to the Genetic Killing Serial Call, pulling him out of his dream.

"Emma ran to Baltimore?!" Hugh suddenly came to his senses, "She didn't tell me."

"I know." Isaac said, "What I want to ask is, is the relationship between her and May really as incompatible as she said? All I know is what she told me. As a third party, I want to know your neutral assessment."

"Honestly, I don't like it." Hugh on the other end of the phone sighed, "I regret finding May. Emma is an orphan, that's right, we are looking for her relatives to avoid others for her. Adopting her because of money? But if that person is May, I can hardly be optimistic."

Hugh rubbed his face, "We were thinking too simply. These days, I asked someone to check May's details. She is not an old lady whose daughter elopes and has no other relatives."

Isaac couldn't help raising his eyebrows, this evaluation was a bit harsh for Hugh.

"Isn't she clean?" he asked.

"Magnificent, ups and downs—if I had to describe it, I would say that." Hugh sighed. "She grew up in the country when she was a child, and she went out to work when she was 16 or 30. Her aunt started a business at Harvard University." She opened a restaurant and she worked as a waiter in it. Then she fell in love with a college student and gave birth to a child for him. She was only [-] years old at the time. Later, some changes happened in the restaurant. She seemed to break up with the college student and the child was thrown away. She gave it to the other party. Then she ran to Las Vegas with others. In the casino, she started as a waiter and climbed up step by step. When she was [-] years old, she married the casino owner and became his seventh wife and had a daughter."

"Is that Mrs. Jully?"

"That's right," Hugh replied. "It didn't last long. She made the boss ditch his sixth wife and marry her. There are people who can do the same thing. She was transferred from the casino shortly after to oversee it." Another property owned by the boss - LOVEHEAVEN."

"What's that?" Hearing the name, he felt very ambiguous.

"Oh, pure boy~" Hugh exclaimed, "That's a legal brothel."

"……and then?"

"Then the marriage went on for more than a decade, and apparently she was sent over, but that didn't mean things were going to be all right. Her daughter disowned her in a shabby tabloid, and then got married to her men. A male prostitute eloped." Hugh said, "Shortly afterwards, her husband filed for divorce. Although an agreement was signed before marriage, who would think too much money? The man used their daughter as an excuse to give her what should be His property was cut by half, and then he divorced smoothly, and married a new man half a month later."

"...Wow." Isaac didn't know how to comment.

"Then half a year later, the old man died, and his sweet wife got all the property. However, May is not a vegetarian. She used the contacts she had formed over the years to ruthlessly destroy the big cake that was turbulent by the death of the boss. Take a bite." Hugh's tone was a little admirable, "She is not a simple person, but it is precisely because of this that I don't trust her."

"Thanks, I feel the same way now."

Unlike Hugh's judgment based on intuition, Isaac really felt that May would never be a good guardian.

The previous indifference towards Mrs. Jully seemed to have an answer. It was because of this daughter that she lost most of the benefits she should have received.If it wasn't for this daughter who made her too passive, maybe she could survive the six months, and when the man died, she would get everything he left behind.

Instead of trying to rob people.

What can't be obtained is always in turmoil, and that greed and regret will become obsessions. When she knows Emma's value, she can guess how she will treat a cash cow without having to think about it.At that time, I'm afraid she will become the most greedy kind of vampire.

She doesn't feel guilty about it, she just takes it as a belated compensation from Mrs. Jully.
