The World of American Drama: From the Los Angeles Patrol

Chapter 272 Super Killer Girl?
"Pay attention to his face and arms." Rhett pointed to the face of the corpse.

"Scratches and bite marks, typical defensive injuries, I believe the forensic team can find the corresponding DNA on Katie's body."

Rossi replayed the scene in a low voice, "Things got out of control. Seeing the atrocities of his companions, he wanted to quit, but the rest would not agree."

Hotchner continued, "He tried to escape and was stabbed by his accomplices, and it was too dark outside for them to find him."

"They were worried that he would call the police, so they had no choice but to stuff Katie's body into a car, do some things to eliminate traces, and abandon it to a further place. In order to ensure their escape later, they forcibly took Lindsay away .”

There was anger hidden in Emily's calm tone.

Jack glanced around again, but found no more clues, sighed, "He is one of the murderers, what we need to do is continue to find his friends."

John on the side saw a few people replay the scene with a few words, and it sounded reasonable, so he couldn't help being dumbfounded, "You guys usually solve cases like this?"

"They. er. We're all professional psychologists." Jack patted him on the shoulder.

John showed an expression that I don't read much, so don't fool me.

Jack picked up the phone and took a photo of the face of the dead body, sent it to Garcia, and attached a message asking her to perform facial recognition, prioritizing comparison with the database of the school Katie and Lindsay attended.

Saying goodbye to the old guys from the Wilshire Police Department, the BAU team immediately rushed back to the Southeast Division. They needed to race against time, and it was impossible to wait for the forensic team or the forensic doctor to get the results slowly.

Fortunately, Garcia was very strong this time, and she found out the identity of the deceased and the suspect as soon as she got out of the car.

"Douglas Silverman, 18, attends a high school with two girls." Jack posted a new photo on the evidence board.

The sheriff of the Southeast Division and his detectives crowded into the huge office, listening to Hotchner and Rossi arrange the next task.

"The impulsive instincts of teenage males, in this case further intensified by drugs and alcohol, make them more brutal, impulsive and reckless than adult thugs."

"Katie became the victim of all these factors combined, and we believe that this Douglas Silverman, fearful, wanted to withdraw, but the dominant person attacked him in order to maintain his authority."

After summarizing everyone's discussions and analyzes along the way, Hotchner came to a common opinion.

"Your task is to find his classmates, parents, teachers, and find out those friends who usually hang out with him."

Rossi went on to add his analysis, "There are at least two or three other people in his accomplices, and the leader should be in his early 20s, a self-righteous villain."

"I think I'm very bad, and I may have a criminal record, some misdemeanors, petty theft and so on."

"I have a question." Hannah asked, "If this Douglas Silverman was killed by his companions shortly after Katie's death, he would have been missing for a day or two. Why didn't anyone call the police?"

Emily replied, "Because these two days are weekends, he may have reported it, or his parents were out of town."

Hotchner was reminded by this sentence, his face darkened even more, "Tomorrow is the end of the weekend, according to the current situation, the next situation will get worse."

That's right, once the weekend is over, the identities of these suspects may be exposed. The school will notify the parents of the students' absenteeism, and the parents will call the police because the children are missing.

And once their identities are revealed, it's chilling to see what these cornered teens will do to Lindsay, who is being held hostage.

"You can ask the Owen couple and Keeson Vaughan first. Since the deceased and their daughter are in the same school, maybe they know something." Jiejie suggested.

Rossi nodded, "You go to ask the Owens, Hodge and Emily go to the parents of the deceased Douglas Silverman, Jack and I."

As he spoke, he glanced at Keeson Vaughan who had been looking out through the glass in the conference room.

"...The two of us went to talk to him."

"So, some gangsters captured my daughter?" Kissen Vaughan took the photo that Jack handed over and carefully identified the head portrait on it.

"I don't know, I won't miss any face, but I've never seen this person before." His tone was quite sure.

"Maybe she doesn't want you to see those boys, afraid you'll get mad or do something to them," Rosie pointed out.

Kissen was not angry because of Rossi's words, but said in a firm tone, "There is no secret between Lindsay and me."

Jack had seen too many little padded jackets that leaked air, and he didn't believe his words at all, "You and I both know that this is impossible, the girl and the father must have many secrets between each other."

"No, you understand." Kissen gave an expression that I don't know how to explain to you.

"She knows everything about me, she knows what I've been up to and why we're living the way we are."

Rossi felt a little unbelievable, and reminded him patiently, "Your wife died in a car accident ten years ago, wasn't that an accident? That made you a federal witness, right?"

Within the FBI, Rossi's authority is much higher than that of Hotchina. Jack guessed that he must have consulted some relevant files before and knew something about Kitson's story.

Sure enough, Kissen neither admitted nor denied, "Before she died, I swore to her that I would do my best to protect Lindsay."

"Then did you tell Lindsay that you were supposed to be in the car, not her mother?"

Rossi's cruel words stunned Kisen for a moment, he didn't expect his details to be found out, but he only paused for a moment, and then unexpectedly continued to nod.

"Yes."

Both Rosie and Jack had expressions of astonishment on their faces.

"I said that there is no secret between us. I told her that in the days to come, the only thing we can rely on is each other."

"I have been training her since she was 10 years old, learning to fight, shoot, how to protect herself in extremely adverse conditions"

Following Kissen's narration, Jack quickly sketched in his mind an image similar to the killer girl played by Chloe Grace Moretz in the movie "Kick-Ass".

Well, this may be a bit exaggerated. Lindsay really needs to be as tough as Super Killer, and she won't be subject to a few gangsters, but her personality should be similar, precocious, strong and rational enough.

But this made Jack feel even more strange, "Since you said that, how could Lindsay put herself in such a disadvantageous situation?"

"Yes, she won't." Following Kissen's confident answer, a flash of understanding flashed in Rosie's eyes.
