Jack and Emily had just taken off their gloves. They stopped immediately after hearing this, looked at each other, and quickly walked back to the corpse pit.

At the bottom of the pit where a corpse had just been pulled out, another hand suddenly appeared.

——

Because of the unexpected appearance of a second body, the two were delayed at the scene for nearly two hours, and did not return to Denver until around 2 a.m.

Back at the hotel, Emily went to her room to sleep from exhaustion, while Jack almost didn't close his eyes all night. He lay on the bed and thought about the case over and over until dawn, when he narrowed his eyes for a while.

When he opened his eyes in the morning, Jack found that he had rarely overslept. Fortunately, everyone knew that he had been working hard for the past two days and did not disturb him. Only Jiejie left him a message.

He hurried downstairs to deal with it casually in the restaurant, and bought a cup of coffee on the way. As he walked towards the building where the FBI office was located, he checked his cell phone. The considerate Garcia had already sent him the information of the two latest victims.

As she walked all the way to the third floor and walked into the conference room, she happened to hear Jill Moss, who was pacing back and forth in front of the evidence board, asking her question, "One phone call, two bodies, why, is the suspect demonstrating?"

Jack pulled out a chair and sat down, putting the coffee cup in his hand on the table with a hint of teasing in his tone.

"In response to your public statement, it's obvious, isn't it? The two new victims disappeared eight months ago, and the medical examiner concluded that their bodies had been refrigerated for at least six months.

Do you know what this means? The murderer had been waiting for this moment, waiting for the police to declare war, and then respond with it. "

Gil Moss didn't seem to care about Jack's attitude, "It's fine, as long as he gets emotional, he will make mistakes."

"Yes, that's what he wants." Rosie frowned and thought carefully about Jack's words, but seemed to turn a deaf ear to the female agent's words.

"I have never been able to figure it out before. For nearly ten years, the murderer's methods seemed to be perfect and he was never discovered, but why he suddenly defaulted on the rent of that warehouse six months ago, causing everything to be exposed."

"Do you think he wants those things to be discovered by us?" Rhett also woke up.

Rossi nodded slowly, "Maybe he feels it's time to let the world know who he is."

"But isn't this too much trouble? Why not send some photos and videos of the victim, some evidence that can prove his evil deeds?"

Gil Moss didn't know whether he was really confused or a little unhappy with Jack's attitude, so he was deliberately retorting.

"Because he hopes someone can interpret him." Jack gave the answer.

"He hopes that the police can analyze every stage of his life starting from his childhood. Do you remember what we mentioned during the previous profile that his excitement threshold will continue to increase and he will look for new stimulation points?

Exposing himself to the police was his new thrill, like writing a book and he wanted us to start reading it from the first chapter. "

Jack stood up and walked to the screen, pointing to the latest victim information, "Since five years ago, his modus operandi began to change. The real estate agent who was killed was one of his risky attempts.

Although the victim was carefully planned and violated and tortured in a nearly soundproof basement, that place did not belong to him and accidents could happen at any time.

Perhaps even he himself did not realize this. From then on, he subconsciously began to challenge the police.

Also note that the last two victims disappeared eight months ago, only three days apart. According to the forensic report, their deaths were six months ago. "

Rhett already understood what Jack wanted to express.

"He kidnapped two people at the same time, and double the risk brought double the excitement. Two months, and a longer period of repeated torture still failed to satisfy him."

The sense of achievement in gaining recognition made Jack proudly pick up the coffee cup and drink it in one gulp. The few hours he spent thinking about it in bed with his eyes open were not in vain.

"Yes, the threshold has reached its peak. Even if he doubles the stimulation, prolongs the torture of the victim, and tries various tricks, he gets less and less pleasure from it.

So he opened his storage room to the police and wanted to change the way he played, hoping that the new gameplay would bring him new excitement. "

While Jack was talking, Jiejie quickly walked into the conference room and handed a report to Hotchner.

"This is the second autopsy report just sent by the coroner's office in Denver. The two bodies were thawed repeatedly. They suspect that the suspect performed several autopsies."

The ladies present all showed disgusting expressions, and the men's faces were also ugly. This kind of behavior can no longer be simply described as a pervert.

Only Jack had been observing Gil Moss out of the corner of his sight. The woman changed her stance without any trace, crossing her legs, which seemed a little uncomfortable.

"So, what kind of new gameplay is he imagining?" When Gil Moss spoke, there was a somewhat unusual blush on his face.

"I don't know, maybe it's the last moment of madness, the climax of writing the last chapter, or maybe it's the prologue of a new book?"

Jack had been thinking about it for so long. It wasn't until he received the victim information and the first forensic report from Garcia on the road that he figured out the suspect's motive. He was not a pervert, so how could he know what the guy wanted to do next.

"Dong dong dong!" A detective appeared at the door of the conference room and knocked politely on the already open door.

"Jill, Line 2, someone from the Chronicle is looking for you."

"Ah, okay, I'll go back to the office to pick you up." Gil Moss whispered an apology, picked up his notepad, and hurried out of the office.

"Are you preparing for the second press conference?" Emily deliberately asked loudly before she walked out of the conference room.

Gil Moss staggered and did not respond or look back. However, at this moment, perhaps because the angle of the light was just right, someone's extraordinary dynamic vision actually captured an incredible scene.

Although it was only a short pause, the slight bending movement made the glistening on the stockings so obvious.

There must be something wrong with his brain. Jack shook his head vigorously. What kind of plot is this? It seems that the sequelae of squatting in a small dark room as a "pornography expert" were too serious. He had to sneak into Jie Jie's room at night. " "Treat" it.

"So, Red, have you learned anything new about the map marks?" Hotchner asked. Without the help of other people waiting, everyone in the BAU could discuss more comfortably.

Rhett shook his head, "No, it lacks too many elements. It's impossible for me to frame the entire state of Colorado."

"I remember you said that with years of impunity, the murderer might be closer to strike, right?" Hotchner said.
