[Criminal Minds] Wooden Legs of Justice

"Spencer. Reid needs to be under surveillance for 48 hours until we are sure that his condition is stable. You can go in and visit him now." A blond-haired female doctor told Leo coldly, and then walked away.

"Kid." Leo walked into the ward, the little doctor on the hospital bed had a plaster cast on his left leg, and he was leaning against the head of the bed limply. Hearing the voice of the big lion, he reluctantly raised his head to take a look, his eyes were red.

Reid was found committing suicide by jumping off a building, but luckily only broke a leg.In order to prevent him from making any further moves, the hospital has the responsibility to monitor such patients.

"What happened?" Leo's voice trembled, and he raised his hand several times to touch the little doctor's face.

"I'm not that stupid! Jumping off a building would not look for such a short house!" Reid said hoarsely: "I explained, but they didn't listen. I really just fell accidentally."

Leo looked at the little doctor silently, neither believing nor disbelief. "Okay, it's all right now, you have a good rest, I'm here with you."

"I don't think the doctor will let you stay here forever, and will drive you out in a while. Besides, you have to go back to investigate the case." Reid said to the big lion with the corner of his mouth twitching. "I was a little sleepy and the doctor gave me a sedative."

"Adam. Smith? I heard you were looking for us?" Hotch walked into the visiting room, and Tim went out to answer the phone.

"Yes." The man in the orange prison uniform looked about forty years old, tall and strong, he smiled indifferently.

Hotch glanced down at the man's charges - multiple armed robbery and homicide.

Tim came in, with a bad face: "Reid broke his back, and the hospital thought he was a suicide attempt. Leo has passed."

Hotch nodded sullenly, signaling to talk later.

"I heard something. I heard that the federal judge's wife was kidnapped again?" Adam mocked, "What do you want to know? You can't find anything from Short."

"So we should ask you?" Hotch countered.

Adam shrugged indifferently: "I can tell you something."

"We don't negotiate deals with prisoners," Hotch said bluntly.

"I didn't plan to negotiate a deal with you, but I just didn't want my brother to be harassed by the police all the time." Adam said, "You know, I was sent in by Judge Strong, and then his wife disappeared on the eve of the trial. My brother did it, kidnapped his wife and made him give me a lighter sentence or something."

"None of your business?" Tim looked at him with raised eyebrows.

"Of course it's irrelevant! The police didn't find his wife in the end! No one was alive or dead!" Adam said, "But no one believed it. The police still haven't dispelled their suspicions about my brother. So I found out that you came to When I asked about the drug lord, I found that the wife of the judge was missing, to be honest, I was quite surprised, but it also means that my brother didn't do anything, right?"

"If what Adam said is true, then this case is not a kidnapping case." Hotch rubbed the bridge of his nose, tired from not sleeping all night.

"Tell Rossi. Let me just say, if it's a kidnapping, there will be no news for seven days! And if it's really a kidnapping, if you can't find anyone for seven days, it's probably a lot of money." Tim muttered.

"How's Reid?"

"Leo didn't say anything in detail. It seemed that there was nothing serious, but his leg was broken. The hospital thought he committed suicide by jumping off the building, and he was under compulsory control for 48 hours. But Reid insisted that he fell down by accident."

"What did Leo say?"

"Leo said that kid has been not quite right since noon today. I don't know if he is sick. So he was asked to go back to rest in the afternoon."

Hotch nodded.The two got into the car and drove back to the BAU headquarters.Still didn't make a trip in vain.

The door was closed gently, and the little doctor opened his eyes again, knowing that Leo thought he was asleep and left. Reid breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed his temples irritably.Looking up again, Dianna was sitting by the sick window smiling at him.The little doctor closed his eyes again.

"It's a hallucination," Reid said to himself, feeling his head throbbing and starting to ache again.

This situation was very bad. When he was in the bathroom of the coffee shop at noon, Reid saw Dianna walking past, and she disappeared in a blink of an eye.Then he had a headache all the time.Hallucinations are a precursor to schizophrenia... The little doctor wrapped himself in the quilt and whimpered.

Turning around in my head, I don't know what to think.He felt a little hopeless, is it still genetic?His worst fears finally appeared!If he becomes like dianna in the future, what should he and the big lion do? Will Leo abandon himself like his father abandoned dianna?

The door of the ward was opened again. Reid hid under the quilt and did not move, pretending to be asleep.

"I know you're not asleep." Leo's deep and pleasant voice sounded in the ward.The little doctor didn't hear Leo go out after a long time, so he had to lift the quilt and sit up.

"Are you hallucinating?" The big lion frowned and said standing at the door instead of approaching.

Reid's pupils shrank suddenly, and he said uncomfortably, "What are you talking about? I don't understand."

"Family-inherited schizophrenia. Hallucinations are the first step." Leo watched Reid speak with a gloomy expression, with a cold look on his face.

"You, how do you know?" The little doctor panicked for a moment.

"Isn't your mother suffering from this disease?" Leo's voice was light.His face was cold, which made the little doctor feel strange for a moment.The person in front of him was still the same face, that familiar face, handsome eyebrows, but indescribably strange.

"What do you want to say?" The little doctor had a premonition, as if the thing he feared most was about to happen.

"Let's break up." Leo lowered his head, not looking at Reid's face: "You won't be able to come out of the hospital in the future, we can't live together anymore, why don't we break up."

Reid was stunned for a while, feeling that his eye sockets were a little sore, his nose was blocked like when he had a cold, and he couldn't breathe.He begged to look up at Leo, hoping to see a little waver in his face, but there was none.The face seemed to be carved out of marble, untouched.

Leo received a call from Tim again, and Rossi who went out at the same time also returned to the office.

"I see, they're back." Leo hung up the phone, raised his head and said to Rossi: "I'm not worried about Reid, he's a bit strange, I'll go and have a look. I'll leave it to you first. Come again."

Rossi and Morgan had obviously heard about the little doctor.The handsome chocolate boy was a bit dumbfounded: "He's always been like a kid."

"By the way, I don't think there's anything wrong with the Appreciation Club. There is a man named Napoleon. Ken knows six women, and also Judge Strong. I just don't know how their relationship is. You can follow this Check it out." Leo finally confessed, rushing out of the office like a gust of wind.

"Okay, then let's see what happens to this man with the same name as the French marshal." Rossi said helplessly, covering the tip of his nose that was almost hit by a big lion.

"Kid, I brought you dinner." Lion gently pushed open the door of the ward, for fear of waking up the sleeping little doctor.In the end, he saw the little doctor sitting on the bed blankly.

"What's wrong?" Leo walked over and found that the little doctor's eyes were red and swollen. "You...are you crying?"

Reid is like a puppet that has lost its soul, neither speaking nor moving.The big lion hurriedly sat down beside the hospital bed, put his hands on the little doctor's shoulders and shook it slightly: "kid speak!"

The little doctor slowly raised his head: "What else are you doing here?"

The big lion was puzzled: "What? I came to see you..."

"What are you doing here! Why are you still here?! Dianna is schizophrenic! What about heredity?! I don't beg you to be with me... Didn't you say you broke up!" The little doctor was hysterical Yelling, pushing Leo out desperately, knocking over the dinner Leo brought.

Leo was covered in vegetables and soup, and stood up blankly: "What? When did I say we broke up?"

"You go, I don't want to..." The little doctor stopped in the middle of the sentence: "What did you say?!"

"You mean you saw Dianna jump down on the windowsill and you just went there? Then you fell down the stairs?" Leo stuffed the little doctor back into the cup and kissed his forehead.

Reid nodded, pale and exhausted: "And you want to break up with me."

The big lion had no choice but to kiss the little doctor's forehead comfortingly again: "No matter what you do, I will never leave you." The lion said gloomyly: "Death will not separate us."

The little doctor raised the corners of his mouth and laughed, and after a while he smiled again: "It's all hallucinations... But hallucinations are indeed a precursor to schizophrenia. This disease is all hereditary... Maybe I will live forever like Dianna In the nursing home..."

"Well, then I'll move over there to accompany you. If you can't tell the difference between reality and illusion, then treat everything as a movie, and you just know that I'm here." Lion said with a smile.

"Don't go." Reid couldn't help but say, God knows whether the lion in front of him is a hallucination or real, but it's okay to just wait like this for a while.

"Well, I actually just want to buy dinner. The things in the hospital have always tasted bad. But this..." Leo sat down again: "Let's just order takeaway."
