[Criminal Minds] years before love

Hotch looked at some of the notebooks the lab had recovered.

Most of them are just meaningless smears, and there are only a few suspicious-looking words sporadically.

——I have to finish my homework today, and I am alone.

—I am going to read a book today.

- Clean out cupboards and beds.

"If I didn't know the consequences, I would think he was trying to plan a new life." Hotch stared at the writing. "Written very hard, like it was his determination."

"The blood was consistent with him. The medical examiner checked the body again and found needlestick wounds and small cut marks on the fingers." Rossi put his hands on his shoulders. "The point is not what he was doing, but what he What is he thinking in his heart when doing these, before solving his confusion and pain, this can only make him more desperate."

"Yeah." Hotch pointed to other words that were merely negative. "Looks like he's not doing too well."

"He needs help."

"I don't think he will find these things for himself. I think this Doctor F is the one he is looking for help." Hotch turned to look at him, "Basically, although the communication situation of little Payne is a bit complicated, Lash They don't seem to know much about it, and her group usually doesn't have the energy to ask psychological questions. I think it's something out of this world."

"Or, at least he thinks he can get help from this Dr. F." Rossi nodded. "Whatever it is, at least he's trying to do it."

"Psychiatrist, teacher, social worker?"

"In Harry's eyes, he's supposed to be a doctor. But I'm skeptical that a real psychiatrist with a high suicide rate would be noticed. And I'm sure his parents would know if he was seeing a psychiatrist. Rossi paused for a moment to think. "Also, Lash said he wasn't interested in sex, which is very, very strange for his age."

"Dave, little Payne seems to be a bit different from Bassand." Hotch hesitated for a moment, turned his head to make sure no one was paying attention to them, and said in a low voice, "Bassand seems to be doing well. He brings new life, but his last step, is to end himself. But little Payne... I don't think this Dr. F will shoot himself in the head at the end of his plan, strictly speaking, he didn't Keep little Payne under control."

"I see what you mean. He may have had severe depression and had a complete breakdown, but at least he would have had the opportunity to seek real help."

"I mean, it's a bad setback for a control freak and maybe speeds up his progress. He might be looking for targets again in the near future."

"Police have issued alerts to schools and community agencies asking them to be mindful of the psychological state of students - it is easy for imitators to emerge after a student commits suicide."

Hotch narrowed his eyes and looked up at him. "That might give this guy a chance."

"It also gives us a chance to find him." Rossi said firmly, looking him in the eyes.

"I think we're ready." Hotch let out a long breath. "Let them in."

Rossi patted him on the shoulder lightly and turned to call the police.

"We're looking for a white male, 35 to 45 years old, very intelligent, approachable and charismatic, but not too physically strong. Married and one child, but we don't think his marriage will last too long. grew up, and his children committed suicide between the ages of 15 and 18 - most likely because they couldn't stand his control."

Hotch looked at the policemen who were recording in notebooks, "I know you are all concerned about this case, yes, this is not a simple suicide case, there may be a serial killer behind him. It's not that kind of abnormal violence , a mentally abnormal serial killer who makes people look fearful."

"I believe you have met him in your interactions with schools and support agencies. He should not be a professional psychologist, but he may work in related agencies or social work organizations. I am very interested in your investigation of suicide cases, And is actively involved in tutoring students with psychological problems. He privately founded an organization or group called Changing Lives, which victims call families. We think he is more interested in 18-year-old students who have family problems, and the worst What’s more, most parents would think their kids were getting better under his control.”

"Also, increase your outreach to the school and the community. He's a relatively mild-mannered control freak, and watch out for those who try to advise you during the investigation." Rossi added, "We think he may have new targets. There are Inform us immediately of suspicious circumstances."
