Issac and Reid took this incident as a small gimmick for eyeballs and left it behind after watching it. As for whether people who performed on TV would be punished for it, Issac believed that after ArthurPenn decided Before you do this, you must have a whole set of countermeasures in place.

Sure enough, this matter received widespread attention as expected, and even the news station in the morning had a follow-up report.

However, the reporting direction is somewhat different from what Isaac imagined.

"Is there really a dead body?" Reid was holding a cup of coffee, and suddenly couldn't move.

The show on ArthurPenn was in New York, so the incident naturally alerted the New York police.On TV, the media's microphone was facing the spokesperson of NYPD, Kate Beckett, a beautiful detective who had also attracted attention because of her best-selling book.

"The police have found a male body at the place Arthur Penn explained. It has been confirmed that it is a tobacco company executive. The case is currently under investigation..."

"Are you kidding me?" Isaac looked at Reid incredulously, "Is there really a dead body?"

"I still stick to my opinion last night." Reid frowned quickly, "Arthur Penn is lying, even if there is a dead body, it doesn't mean he did it."

"That is to say, he might be a witness?" Isaac thought for a moment, then went back to the room to find his phone.

Calling out the address book, Isaac tapped Kate's name a few times with his finger, and then the list slid down to Castle's name.Well, Isaac decided not to embarrass Kate as a case officer, so he dialed Castle's number.

"Good morning." Castle's voice sounded on the other side of the phone.

"Busy night, huh?" Isaac joked, he didn't miss the flashing figure on the TV just now, Kate was obviously the person in charge of the case, how could Castle be sleeping at home.

"It seems that the popularity of this case doesn't need to be publicized anymore." Castle quietly yawned, "Did you also watch last night's program?"

"That's right." Isaac said straight to the point, "But I thought that person was obviously acting, and Dr. Reid also believed that he was lying. So, what happened to the corpse?"

"Haha, were you surprised by today's report?" Castle laughed strangely, and then said seriously, "I understand how you feel. We also watched this show live last night. That kind of boy is always irresistible." So, as a man, when Arthur uttered nonsense, he said firmly that this boy was just grandstanding, and he got countless stares.

"So, what the hell is going on? Did he really kill someone? Or was it just a witness who just happened to stumble across the scene?" Isaac asked.

"What a good question." Castle covered the microphone and glanced left and right. Kate was still being interviewed. No one noticed him now. He walked to a relatively quiet place, "We dug up a place where Penn explained. The identity of the dead body has been confirmed. It is the CEO of the tobacco company who was reported to be missing two days ago. Penn explained the time, place and motive of the incident. He even made it clear how many times that person was shot. It has not been salvaged after entering the river. However, his attitude of pleading guilty is very positive, and if nothing else happens, he will go to court!"

"So, this time, you don't have any other ideas?" Isaac couldn't believe that Castle would be persuaded so easily.

"The attitude of this murderer is too good. I have seen so many murderers, and he is the first one to plead guilty with such a positive attitude. So, how could there be no problem?" Isaac didn't know that Castle had the same pain as him. Isaac at least agrees with Reid's point of view, and will not waver in his own judgment, only if there is something inside that has not been found out.And Castle?He slandered this little boy in front of his mother and daughter, how could he be willing to show his brilliance by not confronting him?

Of course, this is also his habitual confrontation with Kate. Although Kate has the side of his senior fan girl, he must also criticize it with an idol attitude. She is really too unimaginative.

"Then, I look forward to you finding out the truth behind this." Isaac sincerely blessed.

"Of course, I'm Castle." Castle was very confident.

It’s just that he didn’t know that he said this a bit early. Even if he turned all Arthur Penn’s recent activities upside down, the evidence he got was more inclined to the judgment that Arthur Penn had indeed killed someone, because it was several days before the CEO was killed. , There is evidence that Arthur Penn has been following him secretly, and some friends in Arthur Penn's organization also said that Arthur Penn was a little hyperactive during that time, and vaguely expressed that he was going to do a big thing.

After all the clues were gathered, even though the gun that was shot at the time had not been fished out of the river, Arthur Penn pleaded guilty with all his heart, and the case was quickly settled.

Nothing is reversed.

This made Isaac, who has been following the news progress, feel a little heartbroken. Castle even called him to vent his bitterness, saying that he had never seen such a bastard who wholeheartedly pleaded guilty. If Arthur Penn's financial transactions were not very normal, he would have suspected him Was it bought to take the blame?

"The court will hear Arthur Penn's case in a month's time." Daisy secretly paid close attention to the progress of this matter, and even found out the court time. "I plan to take a look at it when the time comes."

"Ask for me, if you can, what is wrong with his brain." This is Isaac who still insists on his point of view.

What happened to Arthur's brain was unknown, but in the BAU, there was clearly someone in trouble.

That person is Ashley Seaver.

Ashley's performance at the beginning was not enough to join BAU, and finally Emily was willing to be her leader, so she stayed.This is certainly a good thing, but it also means great pressure.Not only from herself, but also from colleagues around her.

Not to mention that there is also a cold-faced Boss in BAU. Although he is cold-faced and warm-hearted, he is sometimes enough to pamper the team members and occasionally write reports for them.But these treatments are obviously not available to newcomers. Even, because Ashley is a newcomer, Hotch is even stricter on her.

This time, she was called into the office by Hotch because of an omission in the report.

"I'm sorry." Ashley didn't look very well, her eyes were red and swollen that even makeup couldn't hide.

Hotch originally planned to criticize her for being sloppy, but seeing her appearance, the criticism was naturally unable to speak out, but it brought out concern, "Are you okay?"

Ashley shook her head. "A friend of mine passed away."

Ashley didn't want to say more, and Hotch wouldn't cross the line, he pointed out what Ashley had missed in the report, and then called her out.After Ashley left, he called Rossi again. This girl still trusted Rossi.

Rossi hung up the phone, said "Mother" into the microphone silently, and then walked out of the office, intending to find a chance to love Ashley.

Ashley did not refuse this time. In other words, she also wanted to confide her grief to a trusted person, "He was my former colleague. We were responsible for the part of fighting smuggling. Later, he went undercover. As a result , Someone called me yesterday and said he was killed."

"Do you know who did it?" Rossi asked.

Ashley shook her head.

In fact, because she has left the original department, it is the limit for her past colleagues to tell her the news.

"When the body was discovered, the reporter regarded it as an ordinary homicide. The case was handed over to the police. I inquired about some information. The murderer's modus operandi was clean and neat. The police suspected that he was a professional killer." Ashley hid his face, "That's why we guessed that his undercover identity was exposed, and being shot was just a warning."

"Do you have anything to do with that undercover plan?" Rossi's expression was also a little dignified.

"No." Ashley shook his head, "The undercover company seems to be an ordinary company. They provide few positions for women. Most of the employees are young men. He applied for a truck driver and has worked for two years. years."

"Don't worry, someone will take care of this," Rossi reassured.

"I know, I just hope his death won't be worthless." Ashley let out a long breath, "I'm sorry, because of my personal reasons, it affected my work and made you worry."

"It doesn't matter, since you joined BAU, then we are a family, and there is no need to say sorry to the family." Rossi said, "Don't be afraid of Hotch, he is a good man."

"I know." That's why I wanted to stay.

Ashley thought this matter would stop here, but the next day, Garcia screened out a new case, and the first victim in it was her former colleague.
