"You son of a bitch!" Keith Vaughan was furious, but Jack blocked his way.

Rossi and Reed stood behind Jack in advance before preparing for the showdown. They had great confidence in Jack's fighting ability.

Although I don't know exactly why, all the signs in the room show that this father and daughter are obviously abnormal. Of course, the so-called abuse is just nonsense said by Rhett to anger the other party.

At the scene where the body was dumped before, everyone noticed that Keith Vaughn was taking pills. Although he didn’t know exactly what kind of pills he was taking, looking at his well-trained physique, it was obviously unlikely that they were heart disease drugs. .

Then the only remaining possibility is psychotropic drugs, used to control certain impulsive emotions.

As for the purpose of irritating Keith Vaughn, they need to reverse the status of both parties.

Previously, Keith Vaughn was a family member of the victim. In the absence of evidence, the FBI could only rely on the family's cooperation, or it could do some insignificant background checks on the sidelines.

But it was obvious that Garcia's background check on this family was not going well. It was obvious at a glance that it was most likely forged.

Once the act of assaulting the police is established, the status of both parties is completely reversed. Whether it is making a transaction or applying for a search warrant, it is a matter of course.

This is the "dirty" little trick that Rosie, Red, and Jack decided upon after a few exchanges of glances.

But their little trick was almost defeated. The moment Keith Vaughn tried to rush forward, the chubby middle-aged man named Pat Mannan actually hugged him tightly.

"Don't be impulsive, they are deliberately irritating you!"

"No, let me go! I'm going to kill these sons of bitches!"

Keith Vaughan was completely out of control. Pat Mannan, although a head taller than him, could barely control him.

"gun!"

Jack shouted loudly, and Rosie and Red behind him took a step back at the same time and drew their guns.

During the struggle between the two, Pat Mannan's coat was pulled up, revealing a Glock pistol at his waist.

However, Jack did not retreat but moved forward. He took half a step forward, stretched out his left hand like lightning and grabbed the back of Pat Mannan's neck. With a slight force, he lost the ability to move. Then he pulled out the pistol from his waist with his right hand. In an instant, his back was pressed against the wall.

"Put your hands where I can see you two, don't move!"

"Ho ho." Pat Mannan, who was pinched by the back of his neck and pressed against the wall by Jack, could not make any sound at all. He could only breathe hard, but he still raised his hands high in the air obediently. .

On the other side, Keith Vaughan, who was pointed at two pistols at the same time, quickly calmed down and quickly raised his hands with a helpless expression on his face.

"Left and left trouser pockets." Pat Mannan waved his left hand desperately, signaling Jack to check his trouser pockets.

"Don't move." Jack continued to hold him down firmly, inserting the captured pistol into his waist first, then reached out and took out a wallet from the other man's pocket, and threw it to Red without even looking at it.

Rhett reached out to take it and opened it. Inside was a police badge and an ID, "Federal Marshal?"

Jack's left hand holding the back of the other man's neck was slightly loosened, allowing him to speak normally.

"Yes, Keith and Lindsay are under my jurisdiction. Can you let me go?" Pat Mannan struggled unhappily.

"What on earth is going on?" Rhett seemed to understand as soon as he spoke, and he and Jack said in unison.

"Federal witness?"

Before the BAU was officially established, before Hotchner, Emily, and Garcia were all present, the first case they and Rossi handled was the twin kidnapping case. The family was also under federal control. Under the Witness Protection Program.

This time the trouble was big. Just as Jack was muttering to himself, Rosie had already picked up the phone and called Hotchner, asking them to come over and meet up.

Seeing that Federal Marshal Pat Mannan wanted to say something else, Jack glared at him fiercely.

"Shut up and wait until our people are all here. I know what you are planning. I hope you are ready to explain it to your boss."

Pat Mannan opened his mouth, but couldn't hold back even a single word.

In less than an hour, Hotchner arrived with Jie Jie and Hannah. The two ladies looked a little sluggish, and the makeup on their faces was much thicker than usual, trying hard to hide their tiredness.

"What happened?" Hotchner entered the room and asked directly to the two people on the sofa.

"Kissen has been a federal witness for ten years." Pat Mannan replied in a muffled voice.

"Why didn't you tell us immediately?" The FBI is also a federal police officer, and Hotchner didn't accept his tactics at all.

"Because the case he is involved in is so important, his identity is protected at the highest level at all costs."

After Pat Mannan finished speaking, he turned to Keith Vaughan and said: "Listen Keith, this should have nothing to do with that."

"It has nothing to do with what? His past? Can you guarantee that?" Rossi's words were full of sarcasm.

Pat Mannan opened his mouth and was speechless again.

"Listen Kitson, everyone in this room, except this guy, is here to find your daughter."

Hotchner's poker face coupled with his righteous words are always so convincing.

Keith Vaughan hesitated for a long time, and finally said, "If, if this matter really has anything to do with me, then the other person should be from Boston, of Irish descent, at least two of them."

Gangster, killer, tainted witness, and a series of related words passed through everyone's minds. Jack sighed in his heart, hoping that things would not develop to the worst.

Although Ireland's family-owned gangs have long lost their former glory, this kind of thing is like stinky shit, and he doesn't want to get involved at all.

Perhaps those gangster movies have exaggerated these declining gangster aesthetics to the extreme, with suits and ties, cigar hats, polite killers, and family-oriented gang leaders.

However, in reality, there are only human trafficking, guns and drugs, extremely bloody and violent conflicts over territory, bullying and oppression of vulnerable groups, including female branch girls, and so on.

"Take them back to the police station. They are not allowed to come out until the case is resolved."

Before Hotchner finished speaking, Pat Mannan stood up and stood in front of him, his words carrying a strong sense of threat.

"You have no idea who or what you are dealing with."

Hotchner, whose patience with the guy had run out, looked him in the eyes and spoke calmly.

"Either tell me or please get out of my way."
