The World of American Drama: From the Los Angeles Patrol

Chapter 247 Pressure
Jiejie had already expected how hard everyone's investigation work would be in the future, and all kinds of non-cooperation and closed doors were absolutely inevitable.

"Do you have his last address?" Rossi asked.

"Francis Goring has a house outside the city, send the address right away, wow, he has a wife, but he doesn't live with him."

"Diana Goring, who lives in Shelby, just a few hours from Great Rapids."

Rossi thanked very politely, "Thank you, Garcia, let Jack bake two delicious pizzas for everyone when we get back."

Jack: "???"

"Inform the police to summon Francis' wife immediately, and Emily and I will visit his neighbor, Rhett, thank you for your hard work, you have to go to the local police station alone."

Rossi straight-forwardly rearranged the tasks, and everyone prepared to get in the car and set off separately.

"Red, do you still have the little cake I put in the refrigerator in the morning? I saw you put it in the bag before I left." Jack asked suddenly.

Reid quickly covered his satchel, with a nervous expression, "There are two left, and Emily and Jiejie each took one."

"Give me one, and I'll bake you a pineapple pizza when I get back."

Ignoring the death stare cast by an Italian because he was offended, Jack snatched a small cake from Reid and called Jiejie to the car.
-
When Jack and Angela came to the door of a small grocery store next to the highway outside the city, the No.4 victim who had just disappeared this morning, Angela Miller's husband and his five or six-year-old son, was arrested by the local police Accompanied by him, he just arrived.

"Angela Miller bought a lot of things and went back to the car. Her husband took her son Mike to the bathroom. When they came out, she had disappeared."

The middle-aged Caucasian police officer wearing a cowboy hat had an ugly expression when he saw the two.

Jack and Jiejie heard on the way here that the police officer who was hit by the heavy grenade had just died in the ICU.

Jiejie took the initiative to greet him, "Unfortunately, your colleague."

"He's an experienced veteran cop who's been here for 15 years."

"But the people here can breathe a sigh of relief, the beast is finally dead."

The middle-aged Caucasian police officer took off his sunglasses, wiped off 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, trying to restore its shape to its original shape. It was slightly deformed because Rhett put it in the bag before.

"Jiejie, talk to Mr. Miller, and I'll take the child aside."

The little boy was so well-behaved that it made people feel distressed, and he stayed by his father's side without crying or fussing. Jack offered a small bribe in his hand, which attracted his attention and led him to the shade of a tree beside him.

"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, and he looks like an ordinary working family, but the clothes on the father and son are very clean and tidy, which is in stark contrast to the dusty environment around them.

He didn't answer Jiejie's question directly, but asked rhetorically.

"The guy who took my wife kidnapped other women too, didn't he? He's a serial killer, that's why you're here."

"No, we are here to find your wife." Jiejie was telling the truth.

"Do you believe she's still alive?" The husband's expression was tense and apprehensive, obviously he had heard about the previous case.

Jiejie was at a loss for words for a moment, she didn't know if she should give the family hope at this time.

"Unless there is conclusive evidence, we will assume that she is still alive and investigate." She thought for a moment, then replied.

"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 in your brain, recalling the last scene of seeing her over and over again, constantly blaming yourself, why did this happen, these memories and scenes, every detail must be told. "

Jiejie spoke in a gentle voice, as if there was some kind of magical power in her words, which calmed down the anxious mood of the other party.

"Will you help me find my mother?" Little Mike looked at Jack with big innocent eyes, but the childish words he said made his heart shrink suddenly, as if it was suddenly clenched by a pair of invisible hands.

"I try my best."

Jack was a little overwhelmed. The Miller father and son reminded him of the Lawson father and son he met when he just joined the police force, who were 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 lend a helping hand.

And now the Miller family, do they have a chance to stop the tragedy before it happens?

Jack was a little dazed, he didn't even know if Angela Miller was still alive now.

Although he has changed the plot more than once, he hasn't watched many episodes of "Criminal Minds", not only has no impression of this case, he can't even tell if this is the original plot or the world's own interpretation of.

Is this the psychological pressure that the protagonists of the original drama need to bear? Jack felt heavy in his heart.

After playing with Little Mike for a while, after Jiejie finished asking 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 Reid.

Jiejie shook her head, "It's so remote here, Mr. Miller didn't even see the murderer, and the grocery store's surveillance only looks at the inside of the store."

"Even if it is photographed, it doesn't make much sense. What we are looking for is the missing victim. The murderer is already dead. Now we can only hope that Rossi and Hotchner can gain something."

Before the words were finished, their phones rang at the same time, and Rossi and Hotchner called in respectively.

Rossi and Emily went to the murderer's house to search for little results and found some old video tapes, but the murderer Francis Goring had long since ceased to live there.

On the contrary, Hotchner had an unexpected harvest. He didn't find any useful clues at the scene of the explosion, so he rushed back to the police station, just in time to meet Diana Goring, the murderer's wife, who was summoned by the police.

The appearance of Diana Goring surprised him and Rhett. The appearance features were very similar to those of the missing women, and the hair color was also black.

She admitted that the murderer, Francis Goring, had been violent to her, very brutal, but years ago, she turned to the militia for help and kicked him out of the house.

But Diana Goring revealed a location, a small farm left to her by her parents, which was forcibly given over to her husband after marriage.

"Let's go and have a look first."

Jack hung up the phone, slammed the steering wheel, and drove at full speed towards the address Hotchner sent.
