[Criminal Minds] Wooden Legs of Justice

July finally said: "I really didn't kill Abel. Jackson, of course, I think it would be better if he died, a wimp, no one will notice that he is missing! Jerry and I tied him up and threw him into the cave Inside, we rested in the tent outside, and we took a look at it in the middle of the night, and he was still there!"

"Why did you go to see him? I don't think you care about his life." Leo said coldly, "What's your motive?"

"Of course I don't care about that idiot's life or death!" July cried out in a sharp voice, with a broken expression on her face: "I just want to see what will happen to him! Maybe he was so scared that he peed his pants Isn’t it? Or he went into shock due to shock!”

"Jerry went too?" The little doctor asked.

"Of course, he heard the sound of a car approaching and someone talking, so he asked me to see if Abel was still there, not that the guy ran away and asked for help. I checked with a flashlight, and Jackson was indeed still there Inside the cave."

"Jerry didn't go with you?" The little doctor looked at the cup in his hand, and frowned. He clearly remembered that he said something different last time.He opened his mouth slowly: "What did you see? When I asked you that day, you said that you saw Abel was still in the cave in the morning, why is it midnight now?"

"No, he went to investigate the situation. I did see Abel.jackson in the cave in the morning, anyway, the shadow is indeed inside, exactly the same as in the middle of the night."

"So what you saw was actually Jackson's shadow, not him?" The little doctor followed closely.

July froze for a moment, and then said: "Yes, I didn't go in, I just watched from the entrance of the cave."

"Then did you hear Jerry's voice in the middle of the night? The sound of cars, people talking, etc?" Leo asked.

"I heard it." July recalled, frowning.

"Are you woken up? It's loud? It's very close to you?" The little doctor asked a series of questions.

"No, it was Jerry who heard it and woke me up. It shouldn't be very close. Jerry came back after leaving for a while."

"Did Jerry tell you what he saw when he came back?"

"No, he said he didn't know who it was, but he left."

"Last question, what is your relationship with Jerry? You live in the same tent?"

"It doesn't matter. It's just an ordinary classmate." July couldn't imagine why she asked this question.

"Okay, you can go."

"What are you going to do to me?" July asked anxiously.

The little doctor and the big lion looked at each other, not knowing what to do with this potential serial killer, "I have to leave this to your psychiatrist, maybe you should let your family know that your current situation is not stable." The little doctor spoke.The big lion is obviously too lazy to care about this stuff.In his opinion, if it doesn't work, killing her directly is the easiest way. Similarly, he is happy to do so. Of course, that will have to wait until the girl has finished killing someone——his men don't want to kill unknown generals.

It was already nightfall when we returned to the temporary office of BAU.The lights in the police station are brightly lit. Under the current circumstances, the members of the serious crime team obviously will not have the opportunity to get off work on time.Little Jack was taken home by the enthusiastic policewoman in the police station to take care of him.

"Hotch and I both think that we should check the list of missing persons in Los Angeles within three years. This murderer didn't just start committing crimes recently." Tim sat on the conference table with his coffee in his arms and said, "The undercurrent on the bottom of the sea is enough to roll the corpse down. And then gone forever. A recent change in the currents has washed the body up on the beach."

"That is to say, the murderer will not be a climate expert or something, and he doesn't pay attention to academic journals. Then he doesn't have the habit of reading newspapers, or he doesn't pay attention to this aspect. But he is also familiar with the ocean currents in the nearby sea area, and knows what's going on under the sea surface. The undercurrent can make the corpse disappear forever..." The big lion crossed his legs and touched his chin: "The possibility of occupations such as crew members is higher."

The little doctor quickly picked up the printed information on ocean currents and began to look through it. After 2 minutes, he put down a stack of materials that he had read. At the same time, he quickly listed the formulas on the whiteboard, and the calculation was completed in 30 seconds.

"This is a map of Los Angeles and its surrounding areas." The big lion quickly handed the folded map to the little doctor.

Reid drew a circle on the map, crossed out a few places after looking at it for a while, and then said: "According to the speed of sea water and the influence of ocean currents and monsoons, the body most likely came from the port. The murderer may indeed be a sailor... It was discovered before that the head of the corpse was hit, and this kind of murder is not a murder of passion, it should be a man with a strong body. Otherwise, he would have chosen a safer tool, a knife or something..." Reid spoke quickly for a while, and then felt completely The scene of silence was a little too familiar, so I quickly shut up.

Everyone looked at Reid dumbfounded.After a while, the information exchange continued.

"Leo and I went to Caltech. July, the important person in Abel's case, tied up Abel and threw him into the cave. She said that she saw Abel still in the middle of the night and in the morning. But all she saw was a shadow. We I wonder if abel has disappeared at that time. The shadow may be fake. We noticed that she said that the shadow she saw in the morning is the same as the one she saw at night, but at night it is the light of the flashlight, and in the morning it is the sun... The shadow will definitely change, Even if the owner of the shadow keeps his movements unchanged, the shadow will change." The little doctor said.

"I think the shadow is painted on it - it's very simple, just a rough outline. But I remember that there is no pattern in the cave. The murderer would not be stupid enough to leave this." The big lion continued.You can let your memory play back like a video tape, and then look at the corners that you didn't pay attention to, and see all the structures in it at the same time.

"In addition, Jerry, that is, July's classmate, he and July planned to tease Abel - of course, we don't think it's just a harmless joke. He found that there was a voice in the middle of the night, and then left for a while before returning. He He doesn't live in the same tent as July, he may be a suspect, or it may just be a coincidence...but he is missing now, or was silenced by the murderer-he may have seen something by accident, or he ran away." The little doctor went on to add.

"The report from the forensic doctor indicated that the wounds on the victim's body came from a kind of freshwater piranha, and the murderer must have raised this kind of fish. It was not bitten by scavengers in the sea. The wound was caused during his lifetime." Emily said According to the news from the forensic doctor, "In other words, he was thrown into the water alive to feed the merman...God knows how he can still go ashore alive and let the murderer give him a bite!"

"Mr. Jackson is a retired soldier. He has always been strict with his son, hoping that he can be as brave and strong as a soldier, but Abel is obviously not this type. Even his parents say he is an overly cautious person. Rather timid." Rossi had just had a long conversation with the Jacksons, and finally figured out the source of the guilty expression on Mr. Jackson's face, "According to Tim and Molang, Interpol Kempe also has such a personality. "Unfortunately, there is no further evidence linking the two victims.

"Ilisa's mobile phone is still turned off. The mobile phone card is the kind purchased online that does not require identification. We can't find this person in Los Angeles. It may be a foreign population, but the biggest possibility is that she used a fake name. The bar said that she recently Two days haven't passed, which is abnormal. The bartender said she shows up almost every day." Morgan said worriedly.

"The superiors think this is an ordinary murder case. If it cannot be confirmed that it is a serial murder case tomorrow, they will transfer us back." JJ tiredly brought bad news to everyone.

"what!?"

"They can't do that!"

The Little Doctor and Morgan yelled at the same time.They were on vacation and voluntarily came to investigate this case, but now they are talking nonsense about transferring them back!These bureaucratic bastards!

"Hateful politicians! So, it feels better to investigate independently." Leo said to the little doctor without hesitation: "Otherwise, let's resign!" The little doctor looked at the big lion in frustration, shook his head and said nothing.

"There's only one complete body... We can't even make a test for the victim's characteristics... except that it's timid to look at the mountains." Tim complained.

"Then we still have less than twelve hours to prove that this is not an ordinary murder." Hotch said calmly to everyone: "Tim go back to rest, and the others continue." With a depressed face, he was escorted by Hotch to the hotel where he was staying.

Morgan took several detectives to look for the missing Jerry, after all, he is currently under great suspicion. Rossi picked up Garcia's call, startling the tech queen and swallowing the "honey" that nearly blurted out. "Look up who buys and keeps piranhas in Los Angeles," Rossi ordered.

Emily asked Garcia to help compare the missing persons in Los Angeles in the past three years. Those who are considered timid or cautious in the study, life or work environment, but one or both of their parents are more powerful and strict with them. of. Garcia instantly had one head and two big ones. "It will take a while. The population is too large, and no one will even report the disappearance of aliens." The Queen of Technology said: "Piranhas are not easy to find. Although raising this kind of animal needs to be reported to the relevant departments, there are always people. They can be obtained from other sources."

JJ cooperated with the local police to continue to search for the trace of ilisa-according to the face puzzle provided by Morgan, they found nothing, so they had to continue to increase the recognition range.

"Didn't Hotch and Tim guess that there are more victims?" The big lion drove and took the little doctor all the way to the port.The cave they visited in the suburbs in July has already been passed by the criminal police from the local police station.The BAUs don't expect to find anything there, but it's good to go and have a look.

"Without a corpse, we can't sue, and we can't sign a search warrant..." The little doctor leaned back on the chair and drank the coffee that the big lion had just bought.Sometimes I feel that this rigid mode of operation is really terrible. "Hopefully we can find enough evidence..."

The port at night is not as warm as during the day, and even a little cold.The little doctor got out of the car wrapped in the jacket specially brought to him by the big lion.

"Any kind of exercise is not suitable for me." The little doctor stepped on a round branch depressedly, and threw himself forward, just in time to fall into the arms of the big lion.

"You really need to exercise more..." The big fool straightened the little doctor up.The little doctor frowned, saying that it was completely impossible.

"The murderer is not stupid. I don't think there will be anything left in the cave now. If the shadow is painted on as we guessed, the murderer may have washed it off. The watercolor paint is washed on the stone. Not anymore," said the little doctor.

The big lion nodded in agreement.

"The wound on Abel's head was caused by a blunt force blow. It should have been done by a strong man, but why would such a man need to drag the victim out? He can definitely carry the victim out. It's not easy to do so quietly. Be discovered." The little doctor was talking to himself again, his mind was spinning rapidly, which was inversely proportional to his slow pace.

Finally, Reid stopped still: "Leo, jerry heard the voice, jerry went to see the situation, jerry told july that the person had left...everything was said by jerry, the voice heard by july might even be a tape or something... jerry Doesn't look strong enough to lift someone up? He looks a little sickly thin."

"You mean there may be two murderers?" Leo also stopped and looked at Reid: "Jerry is responsible for kidnapping people, and the other person is responsible for killing people."

The little doctor nodded cautiously: "Of course, this is all speculation now. Jerry and his accomplices have some kind of common fun or something, torture and finally kill the victim. We need Jerry's information."

Garcia's head went "wow" when she heard the phone ringing, but it recovered when she heard that the little doctor just asked for one person's information, "It will be sent to your mailbox in a while." She finished speaking anxiously, Then hang up the phone.

"She sounds anxious." The big lion commented, touching the stunned little doctor's head.
