[Criminal Minds] The Waiting Behind

"Hi, this is Michelle. Can you do me a favor, Penelope,"

Garcia, who was concentrating on watching the surveillance with the beautiful dark-skinned policewoman, heard a familiar voice, and immediately exclaimed, "Well... Michelle, I heard Emily said that you came to New York to chase Hotch, tsk tsk tsk... so you Don't worry about that Kate, oh, let me tell you..."

Garcia really deserves to be the queen of gossip, Michelle, who had a headache, thought so, touched the tip of her nose depressedly, and interrupted Garcia's boring teasing——

"Hey, beauty, don't tease me! I really want to ask you something, but I'm afraid you will make things difficult..."

"What's the matter? Do you want me to help you find out Hotch's hobbies? This is not difficult for me, but you have to help me block the boss..."

Michelle really admires Garcia's unrestrained imagination this time. No wonder Hotch keeps bringing back the topic of Garcia's running away every time: "No, I want to know when Hotch will come back..."

After a pause, Michelle tried her best to brew her emotions, and it was best to let people hear her embarrassment and expectation, "You know, I'm bored staying in the hotel all day today. I don't want to bother Aaron, so I want you to tell me when he's coming back, so I can prepare ahead of time." Trying to imagine the shy scene, Michelle let her words bring a hint of shame: "I want to surprise him, you know..."

Immediately, he imagined all the 18X scenes by himself, and Garcia smiled very ambiguously, "Oh~ I understand, I understand. Hehe, don't worry, I am watching the surveillance, and I will notify you when Hotch returns."

Fearing that Garcia would notify late and everything would happen as usual, Michelle hurriedly added, "Penelope, can you tell me when Hotch is about to leave the police station after dark? Even if he has to work overtime at night and can't accompany me, I want to give him Call so you don't bother him."

"OK, no problem." Garcia patted his chest readily, "I'll take care of things, don't worry."

I have done everything I can, and then I can only resign myself to fate. Michelle secretly prayed to God, she must let herself stop this matter!If the plot can't be lost this time, isn't it even more inevitable that the thing that will make Hotch suffer for a lifetime later?

Be sure to hold your breath! Michelle comforted herself like this. In order to stabilize her emotions, Michelle packed her luggage according to Hotch's instructions last night.She slowly hung her own clothes in the closet one by one, looking at the black and gray on the left, and the newly added bright colors on the right made everything look less monotonous. Seeing such a harmonious scene, Michelle finally felt a little calmed down.

At night, compared with Michelle, who is like a year, the BAU people who are working hard to investigate the case feel that time flies as always.

Rossi always felt a sense of disobedience, and found that the murderer did not contact again after dropping a death card:

"That doesn't fit the profile. These killers were organized, but they didn't get any media attention. And after throwing this away," Rossi waved the card in his hand, a little irritated, "if they really If you try to contact and create panic, his contact should be upgraded. But the reality is not..."

Reid on the side understood what Rossi meant, and explained to the detective who was still confused, "After Muhammad and Mulvo left the death card, they asked for a bank card worth 100 billion dollars..."

Only then did Rossi understand that the real intention of the murderer to leave the cards was to tell them that they themselves were being watched!

After the incident of the police officer accompanying Emily being knocked down, everyone became more and more affirmed of this theory, and re-profiled the criminal, only to find that this was not simply an organized "Son of Sam" who shot casually. , but a group of well-trained terrorists who are anti-surveillance and familiar with the FBI process!

"Very smart!" Although he had to admit it, Kate said to the BAU people who had been together for a few days, "The first batch is civilians, and then the emergency personnel."

"That's crazy," Reid said quickly. "They're doing a drill, and even if they get caught, it won't endanger the organization."

Hotch's expression became more serious, "Create panic so they can see the fastest reaction time of the police, so as to estimate the detonation time. It seems that we are going to be ready." Still cautious in critical moments, Hotch quickly gave everyone a two-by-one The team assigned a task, it seems that tonight is another sleepless night... Moreover, Hotch is also worried about another problem, such a critical situation, Michelle still ran over, should I violate the rules and tell her to stay in the hotel or not? go out?Or let her go back immediately?

When Hotch was hesitating, Emily naturally guessed that her supervisor was frowning. In fact, she felt that the regulations were nothing more than human feelings: "Hotch, I just talked to Michelle on the phone."

There was no beginning or end, but Hotch understood what Emily was trying to express, and nodded gratefully at her, "Thank you."

Here, Garcia just told everyone the bad news that the murderer had already hacked into the surveillance system, but remembered Michelle's explanation in the morning, and hurriedly dialed it.

Sure enough, it was picked up at the first time, Garcia thought, is it really waiting all the time?

Garcia didn't have time to talk to Michelle either, so she hurriedly explained where Hotch was going now.After all, it is now the most tense time for the development of the case, and there are only two of them, so they have to monitor the screen all the time.

Ready to leave the police station but probably not going back to the hotel tonight? With trembling hands, Michelle searched for Hotch's number and prepared to dial it, no matter whether she remembered the correct time or not, if it is now, the success or failure will be at this moment!

Listening to the "beep" on the other end of the phone, Michelle begged in a low voice, "Aaron answer the phone! Please answer the phone! Please..." Michelle never felt that the time passed so long, she felt that she His heart beat faster and faster, until finally he only heard the sound of "beep-beep-" from the phone next to his ear, and the sound of his own heartbeat...

Hotch on the other end didn't answer the phone, and Michelle slowly lowered her hand, as if she could no longer bear the weight of her body, and fell to the ground.She didn't know where to focus her eyes, and it seemed that the grand explosion scene appeared in front of her eyes——

Aaron...don't worry!

Suddenly, the mobile phone that fell on the ground suddenly turned on. Before the phone rang, Michelle grabbed it quickly and put it to her ear. Her pale lips squirmed a few times. She tried her best but did not say anything. In a word.

"...Michelle...Michelle?!" Until the man over there noticed something was wrong, he kept calling Michelle's name. From calm to worried and then anxious, Michelle trembled, almost mobilizing all the strength in his body, and then let out a thin whisper from his throat. With a loud voice, "...um..."

It was obvious that the trembling and choking in the girl's words could be heard, and Hotch's slightly stretched brows moved closer again, "What's the matter, Michelle? I didn't hear it just now, but I called you back as soon as I saw it. Yes Did something happen?"

Hotch gave an embarrassed look to Kate who was waiting on the side. The latter shook his head knowingly to express his indifference, and motioned Hotch to wait for her in the car first.

Hotch nodded knowingly, listening intently to Michelle's voice on the other end of the phone—

"I... I'm fine, I just didn't know why, but I suddenly had a bad feeling. I was a little worried about you, so you didn't answer my call, I thought..."

Hearing the fear of pretending to be calm in the girl's words, Hotch was touched by the girl's concern about him all the time. This feeling of worry made him more able to solve the case without hesitation, because he also has someone he wants to protect. Hotch softened his tone and comforted the girl in a low voice, "Silly girl, don't think too much, sleep well in the room, maybe you can go back tomorrow."

Suddenly thought of something, Hotch added hesitantly, "Why don't you go back tonight? I'll find someone to take you to the airport..." Hotch felt that he would not be spared after all. man with hurt mood.

"No," Michelle understood Hotch's intentions, but it was precisely because of this that she couldn't accept it even more, "Go and recruit people at this time, let alone whether it will cause criticism...Aaron, I am not a dodder who only clings to men Sihua, I also want to protect you. This time, please let me stand behind you and protect you... Wherever you are, I will be there."

How could he not love such a smart and considerate girl... Hotch didn't say anything, just quietly listening to the girl's soft breathing over there, enjoying the peace and warmth of this moment.

The atmosphere was just right, but Michelle woke up suddenly. Why was she so indulging in Hotch's tenderness that she forgot about the business, and hurriedly called Hotch over there, "Aaron, are you with Kate?"

Hotch was wondering how Michelle knew Kate, and suddenly thought of the strange eyes that Emily and the others looked at Kate these days, probably Michelle's allies had informed him... Could not help laughing, "Could it be that Emily told you? When she and I handled the case before..."

Before Hotch could finish his explanation, he was interrupted by Michelle's rapid and sharp voice, "Aaron! Is Kate next to you now?"

Hotch heard that Michelle seemed to be interested in other things. Although he was puzzled, he still answered honestly. He would not casually profile someone he cared about: "Kate may have gone to the car to wait for me. , we're going to see the mayor later."

Michelle seemed to hear a bang in her ears. For a moment, her whole body was as tense as a stone, and her heart sank suddenly, as heavy as if filled with cold lead.She only heard her trembling voice: "Aaron, call her over..."

Before Hotch could respond, Michelle suddenly yelled towards the phone, "Aaron, call her back! Quick!"

Michelle felt that she had exhausted all her strength after yelling, so she couldn't help but slumped on the sofa beside her.

Michelle held the phone blankly, ignoring her already sore arms, and still placed it next to her ear, and could vaguely hear Hotch's voice calling Kate.

Time seems to have stopped, and it seems to be walking without interruption.Then there was a deafening explosion in Michelle's ears. Michelle felt as if she couldn't hear anything, but finally regained a little sanity.When her hearing finally returned to normal, Michelle heard her own voice calling Hotch's name non-stop, but there was a short "didi" sound from the phone—the call was cut off.

But when she frantically dialed the phone again, she found that all the calls could no longer be made... Michelle threw the phone aside, and kept pulling her hair in frustration, murmuring incessantly Saying, "Aaron, nothing to do...please..."
