Chapter 264 The Missing Girl
"Maybe. No?" Jack was not sure. He was not very ambitious. Let him put himself in Rosie's current perspective. After getting rid of his inner demons, he really wanted to No reason to stay.
But his heart told him that this was unlikely. Rossi had gone to great lengths to form this action team, just for an unsolved case that was almost impossible to solve?
If the father and son hadn't been guilty of secretly sending those gifts for twenty years and were accidentally discovered, this case would have been destined to remain an unsolved mystery.
"But his book hasn't been finished yet." Rhett looked confused. He was not as complicated as everyone thought. He seemed to be simply worried about having his cake and eat it too.
"I won't leave for the time being." Rossi woke up at some point and looked at these worried young people with some amusement.
"At least I won't leave this group until I've tasted Jack's weird delicacies."
"Then it may be difficult for you to leave the FBI in your life." Jack is very He replied confidently.

Although the case was over, Rossi still invited everyone to stay in this luxurious five-star hotel for one more day. The next day, he was refreshed and drove himself. When he went out to visit the three Connie brothers and sisters, he didn’t let anyone else go with him.
Emily took Jiejie out for shopping, while the two men stayed in the hotel and didn't want to move.
After the two ladies went out, Jack went out to the bookstore on the corner and bought a copy of "Of Mice and Men" and returned to his room to read.
He really doesn’t like tragedies, including novels, but I have to say that the writing skills of dramatic situations in this book are very good. After a while, he was immersed in it, and even Jiejie secretly entered his room deliberately. Not found.
"Still thinking about the father and son?" Jiejie glanced at the title of the book and placed a bottle of good champagne and two goblets on the coffee table next to him.
“Although the case was solved, this is the first time that I didn’t feel any sense of accomplishment after solving the case.”
Jack also put the book on the coffee table aside, stretched out his arms to hug her into his arms, and then buried his body in her neck, breathing in the fragrance of her hair.
"The stone in Rosie's heart is relieved. As for you, I don't like to see you looking so gloomy, even though you look handsome."
Jiejie pushed his head away, Squeezing her body completely into his arms, she liked this position very much.
"I'm not as fragile as you think, I just hate the feeling at that time. I always hope that I can be on the side of complete justice."
"For Connie's family Say, we are righteous." Jiejie had already noticed that something was wrong with him and was here to comfort him.
"I know, I just feel uncomfortable." Jack didn't know what he was struggling with, he always felt uncomfortable.
Since getting the system, he has become much more confident than he was in his previous life, especially the trick-like healing technique that allowed him to save many doomed tragedies.
However, this time, reality seemed to be deliberately mocking him, telling him with a sneer that he was too arrogant and many things were already doomed.
Jack knew that this was actually a good thing, so he reminded him in time before he fell into self-aggrandizement without realizing it.
Otherwise, he may really embark on the path of American heroism and play a drama where with great power comes great responsibility.
Although he may not really save the world, it is still very possible to take all the responsibilities of those around him on himself, and such a person is almost destined to suffer for a lifetime.
“I didn’t expect you to be a perfectionist.” Jiejie kissed him on the cheek in a funny way, as if coaxing a child. Jack searched her white neck for a long time with his mouth raised, and finally put his earlobe in his mouth and said vaguely, "Children are perfectionists, and I never want to grow up."
“Jack. I want to take a shower first”
“As you command.”

Rosie returned the property to Connie’s family. In his words, it doesn’t matter whether they sell it or move in. I hope this little help can help Help the three siblings start their lives again.
He also planned to return the bracelet to them. It was the property of the children's mother and was given to him by their grandmother.
Connie accepted the bracelet, then gave it away again and put it into Rosie's hand.
No matter what, for Rossi, the inner demon that had troubled him for many years was finally put to an end by his own hands.
Back in Los Angeles, Hotchner's problem seems to have been resolved. The couple is receiving psychotherapy together. Although it may last for several sessions, everyone's hearts are finally relieved when they see the stiff smile that occasionally appears on that poker face. down.
Just when Jack thought everything had finally returned to peace and quiet, an unexpected Shura field suddenly came to him unprepared.
"We need the help of the BAU team." As she was about to get off work today, Hannah suddenly appeared on the 16th floor with a straight face, and found Jiejie with a reluctant expression.
The atmosphere called gossip suddenly spread throughout the office. Even Rosie, who had been shutting himself in the office to write a book, rarely appeared in the corridor.
"What happened?" Seeing that Jack was obviously fidgeting but trying to act as if nothing had happened, Red, who was rare and spiritual, did not ask directly, but turned to look at Emily.
Emily ignored him at all, opened the bag of potato chips, craned her neck to look at the closed door of Jiejie's office, and looked back at a certain scumbag from time to time.
Finally, the office door opened again, and Hannah walked out, followed by Jiejie.
"After explaining the situation to the team members, we will set off immediately." Jiejie sent Hannah into the elevator with a very friendly attitude, turned around and glared at Emily, who looked like she was eating a melon.
"Gather in the conference room, I think we have some work to do." After speaking, Rossi knocked on the door of Hotchner's office with a strange smile on his face.
A few minutes later, everyone walked out of the conference room quickly. The case was urgent. Two girls had been missing for more than 18 hours. Three hours ago, the body of one of the girls was found. The situation was horrific.
The LAPD urgently contacted the FBI. The Bureau wanted the BAU to take the lead in handling the case, and they needed to go to the scene immediately.
The body was found in a dry drainage ditch in the southern suburbs. When everyone arrived, the LAPD had already cordoned off the scene, and several news vehicles were surrounding it.
This is not under the jurisdiction of the Wilshire Precinct. Jack did not see those familiar friends, nor did he see the Channel 8 logo in the news interview vehicle, which made him secretly relieved.
“Have you identified the deceased?” Hotchner briefly greeted the police sergeant in charge at the scene and then went straight to the point.
It rained heavily all day and I didn’t go anywhere. I found a few sets of shoulder blade stretching exercises at Station B and practiced them, which made me feel a little more comfortable.
