[Criminal Minds] Wooden Legs of Justice

Just then, there was a commotion in the corridor outside.It seems that all of a sudden, all the sleeping people woke up, running around and screaming...

"What's the matter?" The little doctor only moved slowly, but his head turned not too slowly, "Don't tell me it caught fire again?"

Leo jumped up from the sofa the moment the noise came, and rushed to the door in three steps at a time. "Click", the door handle was not turned.

Leo frowned. "Stuck from the outside."

With just such a little effort, the commotion outside became even bigger.

"on fire!"

"Quickly put out the fire!"

Someone was yelling outside.As someone yelled "Hurry up and put out the fire", it seemed that a button was turned on, and the video tape, which seemed to have been pressed the pause button, started to run again.The scene switched from the noisy and chaotic crowd to the main character - Huo.

The fire has obviously come up, and Leo can smell the thick smoke outside through the door.It is estimated that the fire place will not be too far from their residence.

The door of the room at Sunset Hotel is electronically locked, and it opens to the outside. The one-way hinge is not easy to kick open. As soon as Leo kicked his feet, he realized that something was wrong—because he made cheese baked rice in the room just now, the strong cheese smell has not dissipated, but now, when he was choked by the smell of smoke, Leo could smell it instead The smell of gasoline.

"Gasoline!" After a while, Reid came to the door, "Look!"

Leo looked in the direction of the little doctor's finger, the color of the carpet near the door in the room was darker than other places, and there was still wet liquid seeping into the crack of the door!

When Leo saw it, his first reaction was to quickly grab the little doctor under his body, rush forward, and leave the door.

At the same time, the fire sprang up, protruding in an arc from the crack of the door, like a momentary electric current, crawling along the carpet to the small room in less than one-third of a second. The location behind the Doctor and Leo!

"Go!" Leo picked up his little doctor and ran towards the opposite direction of the room door.

The location of the foyer had rubbed against their backs and was occupied by flames, turning into a sea of ​​flames.

"There is a pipeline connected to natural gas!" Leo recalled the natural gas used for cooking.And the simple kitchen of this hotel is right next to the foyer! "

However, it is absolutely too late to think about what to do at this time!The fire has quickly covered there!

"It's going to explode!" Reid recovered from the shock of being almost ignited, and concluded blankly.But sometimes just knowing what's going to happen doesn't help.It's no use turning your head any faster.

The little doctor staggered and was dragged to the window by Leo.

Once the window was opened, the fire intensified.It was like pouring a bucket of gasoline on a fire, and the fire quickly rose and rushed upwards, almost reaching the ceiling.

The fresh air outside the window became the best accelerant, and the strong wind in the middle of the United States that broke into the room also contributed to the spread of the fire.

Now, Leo and reid have no way out!Behind them was a sea of ​​flames, likely to explode in a moment, and in front of them was the dizzying height below the open window!

Fortunately, the buildings in Green River are not very tall. The rooms of everyone in BAU are arranged on the sixth floor.Unfortunately, the little doctor has extremely low motor nerves, and there is absolutely no way to support him to climb down with bare hands.

In just 30 seconds, Leo had already planned the escape route in his head.With the little doctor, it is obviously an impossible task to quickly go down to the ground floor directly through the external air-conditioning rack.

Therefore, the best way is for him to go down first, smash the window of the balcony on the next floor, and then take Reid down, and escape from the door of the room on the fifth floor.

This also requires Leo to move quickly enough, at least to get the little doctor down before the explosion.

"Don't move!" Leo took off his shirt, wet it with water from the vase at hand, and stuffed it into the little doctor's hand.

Reid was also unambiguous, and quickly covered his mouth and nose knowingly, and looked at the big lion protecting him with worried eyes.

At this time, the smoke in the room was already so thick that it was hard to see things clearly.There was also a strong chemical smell in the smoke.Over time, it almost feels like my voice is hoarse.The smoke alarm on the roof screamed "Didi", spinning and spraying a pitiful spray, but in the fire with accelerant, the drizzle was like drizzle and had no effect.

"There's something wrong with this smoke!" The little doctor bent over, lowered his figure, and was protected by the big lion, and hummed to him.Because of this effort, besides the hoarse pain in his throat, Reid also felt a burst of weakness.Although he is not yet in a state of unconsciousness, he feels that his hands and feet are heavy, as if it is not his own.

"There may be a small amount of inhaled anesthetic." Leo tried to reduce the frequency of breathing, and dragged the limp little doctor to the window again.The big lion felt his back was hot, as if the tongue of fire had already licked his back.

Leo placed the little doctor on the edge of the wall below the window, and pressed Reid's head down to make sure he was low enough.Then, with a hand on the window sill, he leaped out of the window and landed on the external air-conditioning rack.

The little doctor's sentence "be careful" was still stuck in his throat, when Leo turned over and jumped out of the window. Leo's vigorous figure like a leopard quickly disappeared before Reid's eyes.

The little doctor scrambled and crawled on the window sill, without bothering to lower his figure, he got up and leaned on the window sill to look down.The half-length Leo clasped his hands tightly to the eaves of the next floor, arched his body, stepped on the glass window of the fifth floor, jumped up in the opposite direction, then put his legs together, and kicked on the glass window of the fifth floor. On the balcony window.However, under the huge impact, the window did not move at all! Leo exerted force twice, but the glass showed no sign of breaking, but the window frame began to loosen with the huge impact force.

The little doctor's eyes were red from the smoke. Although he couldn't see anything clearly, he also felt that things might not be going well.Although Leo didn't have time to tell him anything beforehand.

"This is tempered glass!" The little doctor squinted his eyes that were smoked like walnuts, and shouted loudly at Leo hanging under the window, "You hit a point with a sharp object!"

"You throw something down!" Immediately came the answer from the big lion below.

Without even thinking about it, the little doctor grabbed the vase beside him and threw it at the person underneath. Leo hung himself with one hand, without looking at it, and with the other hand he fished it aside... only to find it was a vase...

Leo sighed helplessly, "Is it okay to throw away a usable one?"

In fact, the little doctor is a creature whose head turns faster than its actions, like an XP computer with Windows 7 system installed, it will crash if you are not careful.

When the vase was thrown down just now, the little doctor knew that he was doing something strange again.Thin ceramic vases are absolutely useless!Compared with the solid state of light tempered glass, this is simply...

The little doctor hurriedly groped around, looking for things that could be used around him.

In fact, at this time, Leo really wanted to say something to the little doctor, "You better stop looking, I'll keep kicking, this is more reliable..."

Finally, the little doctor finally threw an iron ashtray to Leo.At this time, Reid felt that the heat wave had climbed up his back.

The little doctor looked back, and the hotel room had long been changed beyond recognition, and everything behind him was buried in a sea of ​​flames.The flames twisted upwards, licking the ceiling, and scorched them black... The little doctor had a momentary sense of fear—he thought of Ruster's burnt-out apartment!

The sound of explosions has been heard one after another from the direction of the foyer... Fortunately, the natural gas pipeline has not exploded yet!The little doctor murmured in his heart.

Time always passes very slowly in a tense atmosphere, and the little doctor understands this truth-Einstein's theory of relativity!The little doctor desperately recalled what he saw when he was studying for a bachelor's degree in his brain, so as to relieve his tension.

Now he has to cover his mouth and nose again with the wet shirt Leo gave him, and bend over to get more oxygen.The dense smoke already made it difficult for him to see anything around him.The pungent smoke penetrates everywhere, and there is a strong tingling sensation in the entire respiratory tract.

The flames had already started to climb up the window, and everything around became extremely hot...

At this time, it was less than 5 minutes away from the fire.

Leo was supporting the weight of his whole body with one hand at this time, and with the other hand, he grabbed the ashtray thrown down by the little doctor, and smashed it hard at the damn double-layer tempered glass.

"Bang!" At the first sound, the windows on the fifth floor shook, but the glass itself did not move much.

Leo really can't focus on his current actions.The big lion grasped the extended part of the balcony's integral rain shelter with one hand, exerted force on his back, took the waist as the axis, flexibly hooked his legs upwards, and fixed himself in the posture of head down and feet up.Another slamming "bang!" The second sound, very good, fine cracks began to appear on the window, spreading around in the shape of a spider web.

The third time, "bang!", very good, the crack expanded, and the ashtray with sharp corners really had an effect.

The big lion slammed on the window with his elbow, and finally, the window shattered with a bang.

Leo used his waist strength to turn over and jumped directly into the fifth floor from above.

"Kid, jump down! I'll catch you!" Leo immediately yelled upstairs.

There was thick smoke rising from the windows on the sixth floor, and the flames were trying to go out of the windows, and the little doctor could not be seen clearly at all!

Reid was crawling on the ground under the window, but when he heard Leo's cry, he immediately got up and climbed onto the window sill.The flames behind him are fierce, and the height under his feet makes him dizzy... The little doctor glanced at Leo, who was protruding half of his body, obviously planning to grab him directly, but according to the acceleration of gravity... The little doctor hesitated .It's not because he doesn't trust whether Leo can catch it, but because he is worried about whether Leo will be implicated by himself!

"Jump down!" Leo shouted to the little doctor, his voice was incredibly calm. Leo has a natural sensitivity, he can see the little doctor's hesitation.

Fortunately, this stubborn bookworm finally jumped down.

Leo hugged his little doctor's soft waist, and carried him into the balcony on the fifth floor.

At the same time, there was a loud "boom" from upstairs, and for a while, all the glass windows were shattered, and after staying on the window frames with traces of spider webs for 0.01 seconds, they fell down one after another. It was quickly ejected under the impact of the huge airflow.

"It's so dangerous!" The two of them who survived the catastrophe silently said in their hearts.However, things are far from over!

"Go!" The big lion half-supported and half-hugged the little doctor, rushed out of the room, and quickly ran to the end of the corridor outside the door - there is a quick escape ladder!

At this time, the siren of the fire engine appeared in the noise of the fire scene.The firefighters quickly got ready, and the huge water column rushed to the burning floor under the action of high pressure. The air cushion was stretched and placed downstairs, so that as many people as possible could escape.

Leo and the little doctor were drenched by the water jets, and finally stepped on the flat ground...

"Ache!" The little doctor rubbed his red nose and sneezed hard.Originally, I just got better from a cold. At this time, I was drenched in water, and then blown by a small cold wind. I caught a cold again without any accident...

The pitiful little doctor was wrapped in a blanket by the rescuers at the scene, his hair was still wet, he looked like a cat that fell into the water, skinny and wet... a certain big cat at the scene The lion couldn't help but wanted to hold the little doctor in his arms...

Because it was another arson case, the BAUs rushed to the first scene and met Leo and Reid.

"Do you have to be unlucky every time!" Morgan couldn't help complaining to them after calming down his rapid heartbeat.

"God knows!" Leo stuffed the little doctor who was finally in his arms into his arms, and showed a half-hearted smile at Morgan's exaggerated reaction.

The fire was not completely extinguished until the early hours of the morning.Two people were killed in a later explosion caused by the fire.

"Two elderly people, a man and a woman. The man suffocated due to the smoke, and the woman fell from a high floor because of an incorrect posture when she jumped, and the rescue failed." JJ hurriedly brought the news, and hurried to talk to the difficult media Dealing with it.

"The victim this time does not fit the inference of the profile at all." Rossi judged.

"Either he missed..." Morgan leaned against the car door.

"Either he has transformed into a serial killer who kills indiscriminately." Emily followed Morgan.

The victim had changed from a middle-aged divorced single man to an elderly person, such an obvious transformation that the BAUs could not help but pay attention.

"The killer should be targeting us this time." Little Doctor and Leo looked at each other and told their colleagues.Explain the ins and outs of this matter clearly.

"A murderer trying to kill two agents? Does he know where we live? That's horrible…" Morgan's eyes widened.

"So, maybe someone in the local police station did it? Or did someone in the local police station leak the news?" Hotch quickly grasped the point.He continued to stare at himself with a cold face, ignoring Tim's adoring eyes.

This conclusion is not what everyone in BAU is willing to get.Their nominal colleagues may not be trustworthy at all!It's a scary thing - not only do they have to deal with a serial killer, but they also have to deal with being stabbed in the back!Hard to think about.

"But there is another person who knows where we live." Leo pondered for a while, and finally spoke. "While in the convenience store, I gave the address to a saleswoman because she looked anxious. I thought she knew something."

Happy New Year!
