tell me what to do, Dr. Reid

However, Eden rejected Fiona's request.

"Daniel Benson has been transferred to the state prison." Eden seemed a little impatient, "Mars, I don't understand why I am so obsessed with this case."

"I'm not trying to overturn the case, sir," Fiona said. "I just think it's a bit odd, and maybe there's something missing."

Eden rested his elbows on the table and stared at Fiona for a few seconds with a frown.

"I'll give you a minute to convince me," he said.

"Daniel Benson admitted the crime very quickly," she said. "He even waived his right to appeal. But he was very vague about the motive for committing the crime. According to the results of the investigation, he had no previous record of violent crimes. He did not Like the type who would kill someone over a little quarrel."

"Is this the conclusion given by the young doctor?"

"It's a conclusion that he and I agree on." Fiona said cautiously, and then she paused.

"one more thing. daniel's brother, sam, claims that he probably went to the camp run by the deceased. according to the records, it used to be the base of the juvenile field summer camp ten years ago, and samdaniel happened to be nine years old at the time. we think there must be something in it What's the connection."

Eden dropped his elbows and folded his arms, "So, you think Brother Benson probably knew the victim?"

"Yes." Fiona said.

Eden was silent for a moment. Fiona was waiting patiently for his reply.

"I have an idea," he said calmly. "Why don't you start with that camp?"

Fiona was a little taken aback.

eden had backed off, and she wasn't about to be aggressive.It might be a good idea to start investigating in that camp first, if they find more suspicious points, maybe eden will allow them to meet with danielbenson.

"Thank you, sir." Fiona nodded slightly.

Eden nodded silently.He lowered his head and continued to study the information in his hand, without raising his head, he said, "Close the door, thank you."

The camp was located just outside of Atlanta, northwest of Atlanta.The camp has not been used for a long time, but the forest is still there.The victim's home was in a small residential area on the edge of the woods.

"I don't see anyone." Fiona said, taking off the sunglasses she was wearing while driving, squinting her eyes. "Maybe most of them moved away."

"This area will be transformed into a new type of residential area." Reid, who was walking beside her, said, "I saw a promotional billboard before."

The victim's home was at the top of a steep slope, and they climbed up after getting out of the car.Due to the sweltering heat, they soon began to sweat.

"It's really hot." Reid, who was walking beside Fiona, said suddenly.

He tugged on his tie, undid the top two buttons, and rolled up the sleeves of his shirt casually.

Fiona's eyes fell on his exposed collarbone.She stared at his open collar, and from her vantage point she could vaguely see his strong chest, and...

"... Fiona?" Reid suddenly called her name.

Fiona pretended to look away nonchalantly, "What?"

"I mean this forest." Reid panted slightly.

Fiona looked at his profile.

She couldn't help noticing that the curly hair on his temples was slightly wet with sweat, and was sticking to his cheek obediently.His cheeks were slightly flushed from the heat.Damn, it makes him look extra cute - or, yummy?

"It reminds me of that vacation in ninth grade." Reid, who was unaware of Fiona's naked eyes, continued, "At that time, all the students in our high school participated in a camp activity, remember?"

"Hmm." Fiona paused and replied casually, "I have a little impression."

Reid blinked.With some regret, "I was particularly impressed by one incident. On the first night, someone put a fat spider in my pillow."

"Oh, did they scare you?" Fiona said with a smile.

"That's not true." Reid replied lightly, "I kept that spider in a jar. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a smiling spider, which can only be found in the rainforest of Hawaii, the most amazing Yes, it is said that the smiling face on the back of each spider is different. But the next morning I accidentally let the spider out, it climbed on a girl's lap, and the girl screamed and jumped up, stamping her feet like hell Stamped it to death - I didn't have time to tell her that the spider wasn't poisonous. It made me depressed for a long time."

"You can imagine how funny that scene was." Fiona laughed.

"Looks like you really don't remember?" Reid said suddenly.

Fiona turned her head suspiciously, "What?"

"Actually, that girl is you." Reid said calmly with a smile on his lips, with the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, "After knowing that spider was raised by me, you seem to hate me very much."

"Oh, that's bullshit. I don't hate you." Fiona laughed immediately.It had nothing to do with her at all.She had never been afraid of bugs in her life.

"Okay." Reid shrugged.

Soon, they arrived at the victim's home.According to the information, the victim jimpope has a wife named nancy.

Fiona walked up the steps and knocked on Pope's door.

"Who is it?" said a tired, hoarse female voice.

"I'm from the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, and this is Dr. Reid from the FBI." Fiona said, "Can we talk to you, Mrs. Pope?"

After a few seconds, the door opened.

An elderly woman who looked at least 70 years old stood in the doorway, smiling at them as she wiped her hands on her apron.

"Come in," she said, "I'm going to make tea."

Mrs. Pope quickly brewed a rich and fragrant verbena tea.

"I rarely have guests here," she said apologetically, placing two mismatched glasses in front of them.

"Thank you." Reid nodded politely.

Mrs. Pope sat down across from them.She stared intently at Reid across the table, a smile forming on her face.

"You remind me of my husband when he was young," she murmured. "Your hair is exactly like his, and your eyes are deep and bright, wise but pure..."

Reid licked his lips and exchanged a blank look with Fiona.

Fiona endured so much that she didn't laugh.

"We're sorry for what happened to you," Fiona said softly.

Mrs. Pope sighed, her eye circles seemed a little red.

"My husband is a good man." She choked up a little, "...he didn't deserve to die like that."

She bowed her head and began to drink her tea.

Both Fiona and Reid were silent, they didn't want to disturb her for the time being.

After a while, Mrs. Pope suddenly raised her head and looked at Fiona, "Are you married?"

"What?" Fiona blinked. "Oh no, we didn't."

"You should." Mrs. Pope looked at them with a little cloudy eyes, "You look very suitable."

Fiona immediately turned to look at Reid. Reid pursed his lips in a helpless smile.

"Your husband used to be the warden of the camp, right?" Reid asked, shifting the subject.

"Yes." Mrs. Pope replied, "Many children came to camp with us at that time. My husband liked the children very much, and those children liked him very much." As she spoke, the corners of her mouth drooped, showing an obvious sad expression.

"So do you have a list of those kids?" Reid asked softly.

"Sorry, I don't," Mrs. Pope said.

Fiona's eyes fell on a few pictures hanging on the wall.One of the photos was apparently taken by kids who had come to camp.

"By the way," she said, "those kids take pictures at camp, don't you? Do you still have pictures of them?"

"Yes, of course." Mrs. Pope nodded slightly and said, "Just wait."

After she finished speaking, she turned and left the living room.

Reid and Fiona looked at the other photos on the wall at the same time.

"Who is that little girl?" Fiona asked suddenly.

Reid was also drawn to that photo.

It was the only one of all the pictures on the wall.The little girl in the photo was swinging on a swing, and she looked about seven or eight years old.

Reid stood up and walked to the photo.

"Will she be the pope couple's daughter?" Fiona said.

"No." Reid vetoed, "They are both dark haired, and this girl is blonde."

At this time, Mrs. Pope returned to the living room.

"...I found these pictures," she said hoarsely, and then she stopped suddenly behind Reid.

Before Fiona and the others could ask, Mrs. Pope sighed and said, "Kate Wilcox. I still remember the day she disappeared."

"This girl is missing?" Reid asked in surprise.

"Yes," Mrs. Pope said, "she is a relative's child. She camped here with the other children that summer, but one night she disappeared. They have not been able to find her until now. "

"How long ago was this?" Fiona asked.

Mrs. Pope immediately replied: "Exactly ten years ago, I remember this incident very clearly."

"Do you have any pictures of the other kids who came camping here ten years ago?" Reid asked.

Mrs. Pope opened the photo album in her hand.She looked at it carefully for a long time, and finally pointed to one of the group photos and said, "This is the one."

Fiona walked over to look at the photo with Reid.

The missing girl kate wilcox was standing in the corner.Unlike the other children, she had no smile on her face and looked unhappy.

"Look." Reid suddenly pointed to a short boy standing on the far left in the first row.

It was only a matter of careful observation that the boy was young Sambenson.
