Chapter 247 Pressure
Jiejie has already foreseen how hard everyone’s investigation work will be in retrospect. All kinds of non-cooperation and rejection are definitely inevitable.
"Do you have his latest residential address?" Rossi asked.
"Francis Goering has a house outside the city. Send the address immediately. Wow, he actually has a wife, but she does not live with him."
" Diana Golin lives in Shelby, just a few hours' drive from Great Falls."
Rossi thanked him politely, "Thank you, Garcia. When I get back, let Jack bake two delicious pizzas for everyone."
Jack: "???"
"Notification The police immediately summoned Francis' wife, and Emily and I went to visit his neighbor. "Reed, you have to go to the local police station alone."
Rosie reassigned the task straightforwardly. Get ready to get in the car and set off separately.
"Red, do you still have the small cakes I put in the refrigerator this morning? I saw you stuffed them into your bag before setting off." Jack suddenly asked.
Rhett quickly covered his satchel, looking a little nervous, "There are two left, Emily and Jiejie each took one."
"Give me one, and I'll give it to you when I get back. Bake a pineapple pizza."
Ignoring the offended death stare from an Italian, Jack snatched a small cake from Red and asked Jie Jie to get in the car.
——
When Jack and Angela arrived at the door of a small grocery store on the highway outside the city, the fourth victim who had just disappeared this morning, Angela Miller, Her husband and his five or six-year-old son, accompanied by the local police, had just arrived.
"Angela Miller bought a lot of things and went back to the car first. Her husband took their son Mike to the bathroom. When they came out, she had disappeared."
Middle-aged white man wearing a cowboy hat The police officer looked very ugly when he saw the two of them.
Jack and Jiejie heard on the way here that the police officer who was affected by the heavy grenade had just died in the ICU.
Jiejie took the initiative to greet him, "I'm sorry, your colleague."
"He is an experienced old policeman who has worked here for 15 years."

"But people here can breathe a sigh of relief, that beast is finally dead."
The middle-aged white police officer took off his sunglasses, rubbed away the sweat that flowed from his forehead to his eyes, and said with emotion.
"Except for the Miller family, of course."
As he spoke, he looked at the helpless father and son beside the police car.
Jack turned the small cake in his hand and tried his best to restore its shape to its original shape. It was slightly deformed because Rhett put it in the bag.
"Jiejie, you talk to Mr. Miller, I will take the child aside."
The little boy was so well-behaved that it made people feel heartbroken. He stayed with his father without crying or making trouble. Jack gave him the A small bribe attracted his attention and led him to the shade of a nearby tree.
"Please describe what happened at that time." Jiejie looked at the sad father and husband.
This Mr. Miller is very young, only in his early twenties. He looks like an ordinary working-class family, but the clothes on the father and son are very clean and tidy, which is in sharp contrast to the dusty environment around them.
He did not answer Jie Jie’s question directly, but asked rhetorically.
"The man who kidnapped my wife also kidnapped other women, right? He is a serial killer, that's why you are here."
"No, we are here to find your wife. "Jiejie is telling the truth. "Do you believe she is still alive?" The husband looked nervous and worried, obviously he had heard about the previous case.
Jiejie was speechless for a moment. She didn’t know whether she should give hope to the family at this time.
"Unless there is conclusive evidence, we will assume that she is still alive and conduct an investigation." She thought for a moment and then answered.
"That's why we called the FBI." The middle-aged white police officer said from the side.
“I believe that throughout the morning, you have been recalling the scene where you last saw her over and over again in your brain, constantly blaming yourself for why you let this happen, these memories and scenes, every bit of it Tell us all the details."
Jie Jie said in a warm voice, as if there was some kind of magic in her words that calmed the other party's anxious mood.
"Will you help me get my mother back?" Little Mike looked at Jack with his big innocent eyes, but the childlike words he spoke made his heart shrink suddenly, as if he was being held by a pair of invisible hands. Clenched suddenly.
“I try my best.”
Jack was a little at a loss. The Millers reminded him of the Lawsons he met when he was a police officer, the former owners of his current house.
The scene in front of him was so similar. What he saw at the beginning was a broken family, and all he could do was help.
And now the Miller family, do they have a chance to stop the tragedy before it happens?
Jack was a little confused, he didn’t even know if Angela Miller was still alive.
Although he has done things to change the plot more than once, he has not watched many episodes of "Criminal Minds". Not only does he have no impression of this case, he can't even tell that this is the original plot. Or the world interprets it on its own.
Is this the psychological pressure that the protagonists of the original drama need to bear? Jack felt his heart heavy.
After playing with little Mike for a while, after Jiejie asked about the situation, Jack took his little hand and sent him back to his father.
"Is there any noteworthy information?" Jack drove Jiejie to the police station to meet Red.
Jiejie shook her head, "This place is too remote. Mr. Miller didn't even see the murderer. The grocery store's surveillance only focused on the store."
"It would be meaningful even if it was photographed. Not big, what we are looking for is the missing victim, the murderer is dead, now we can only hope that Rossi and Hotchner can find something.”
Before they finished speaking, their phones rang at the same time, with Rossi and Hotchner calling in respectively.
Rosie and Emily went to the murderer's house to search and found little success. They found some old video tapes, but the murderer Francis Golin no longer lived there.
However, Hotchner had an unexpected gain. He found no useful clues at the scene of the explosion and rushed back to the police station. He happened to meet Diana Golin who was summoned by the police. She is the murderer's wife.
Diana Golin's appearance surprised him and Rhett. Her appearance was very similar to that of the missing women, and her hair color was all black.
She admitted that the murderer Francis Goering had been violent to her, very cruel abuse, but several years ago, she asked the militia for help and drove him out of the house.
But Diana Goring revealed a location, a small farm left to her by her parents, which was forcibly given to her husband after marriage.
“Let’s go take a look first.”
Jack hung up the phone, turned the steering wheel, and drove at full speed toward the address Hotchner sent.
