"Who are you?" The chubby Sheriff Ben Shoy was still expressionless, standing under the porch, looking at Jack with an indifferent expression.

"Jack Tavol, just call me Jack, friend of Arya Hansen, just came from Los Angeles, won't you let us in? You don't want to see an FBI agent who came to help freeze to death in the snow, do you? ”

Hearing him say this, the two old men under the porch seemed to have just reacted, and turned slightly sideways, revealing the door that had been blocked by them.

"The corpse was five miles away from here, and it would have been a snowmobile to get there, and she would have frozen to death if she dressed like this."

The local hunter named Corey Lambert said as he escorted the heartbroken Indian girl to the crowd, followed by a burly man.

"This is Arya Hansen, that's her fiancé Braxton, and I'm with them, uh. It should be the same as you, for the same thing. ”

Jack was very gentlemanly and pushed Jane open the door, and introduced two of his companions on the trip.

Last night, when the BAU group met at the Wolf brothers' farm, Arya received the bad news that her own sister Natalie had been found frozen to death in the wild, so she asked Braxton to take her home as soon as possible.

Arya doesn't say much, but Braxton asks Jack for help, asking him to go with the two of them to the wilderness.

Braxton had been in Wyoming for half a year, and knew that it was impossible to rely on the local tribal police to find out the cause of Natalie's death, so he immediately pulled someone's strong man.

In his words, he hates this kind of brainstorming, and with Jack as a professional, he just needs to be in charge of doing it when the time comes, no matter what the problem is.

Now that the Wolf brothers have a relationship with themselves, Jack is naturally obliged, went home and picked up a gun box with a combination lock, brought his own pistol Glock and spare gun FK7.5, and got on the plane overnight with the little couple.

Of course, he still has to take leave, and two days off on weekends is enough to fly back and forth, and it will definitely take more time to investigate the case, but fortunately, BAU has no important cases to be busy with recently, and Hodchner directly approved him for a week of leave.

Rosie also said happily that if the case is difficult, as long as Jack convinces the local tribal police to issue an application, the BAU team is ready to go out and give the greatest support.

Jack didn't expect to meet Jane Banner on the way, and he hadn't been in touch with this murderous girl since the FBI academy separated.

But this girl who looks like the Scarlet Witch in the Marvel movie, he still has some impressions, after all, her legs are much longer than Black Widow.

This also illustrates one thing from the side, although the FBI only sent a rookie agent, which seems somewhat perfunctory, but Natalie's death is likely not an accident.

Because only murder is suspected, the tribal police will escalate the case to the FBI, and the FBI will determine jurisdiction.

Because of the autonomy enjoyed by the Indian reservations, ordinary criminal cases were usually referred to the Bureau of Indian Affairs.

When he arrived at the farm, he saw the local hunter named Corey Lambert wearing a cowboy hat and a vicissitudes on his face, and Jack's curiosity exploded.

He is too familiar with this face, he has a living eagle eye, this must be the plot of a certain movie, he has watched so many TV series in his previous life, and he has never seen these two appear together in an ordinary crime drama.

Jack didn't think he would be surprised to see Black Widow or Wonder Woman standing inside even if he pushed the door open and entered the house.

To his disappointment, however, there was only a yellow-looking mixed-race boy and an old Indian woman.

"Kumar, find some warm clothes for this girl." Corey Lambert, who entered the house behind the two, said to his mother-in-law.

The old Indian woman, who was teasing her grandson, got up a little reluctantly, and looked her up and down on Jane, who was thinly dressed, before indifferently motioning her to go with her.

"What did they think that they would send you here?"

Hearing the old woman's words, Jane looked at everyone with some embarrassment, and then followed her into the bedroom.

Corey Lambert took the three of Jack to sit down on the couch and picked up a kettle from the coffee table, "Drink some hot tea, you didn't come by chance, just in time for this storm." ”

Arya, whose eyes were red and swollen and looked haggard, stared intently, "Uncle Corey, Natalie her"

Seeing that Corey Lambert avoided her gaze, Arya looked at Sheriff Ben Shoy on the side as if asking for help.

Ben Shoy couldn't bear it, and lowered his eyelids and whispered.

"Yesterday Corey was tracking a cougar nearby and found that body on the east side of Boulder Cobblestone, I knew she looked like Natalie, but"

"It's Natalie, I know it's her, otherwise I wouldn't have informed your parents." Corey Lambert couldn't help but interrupt the sheriff.

Seeing that Arya almost fainted in Braxton's arms, Jack decided that it was not a good idea to take her to the scene.

"Braxton, why don't you take Arya to her parents' house first, or find a place to rest, and leave the investigation site to me, her body has only recently recovered, and she is not suitable for too strong stimulation."

Braxton nodded without hesitation, he never dragged his feet, he knew that he couldn't help much here, and taking care of his lover was the most important thing at the moment.

He hugged Arya, who was almost fainting, and said, "Thank you, Jack, I'll leave this matter to you, I'll go to town and find a hotel, and I'll give you news." ”

After saying that, he nodded slightly to the others, and left the house without looking back, holding the girl in his arms, and drove away.

"So, Mr. Tavol, who are you?" Old Sheriff Ben Shoey kept looking at Jack with scrutinizing eyes.

However, although the years have brought him a wealth of experience, it has not allowed him to guess the true identity of the handsome young man in front of him.

"I'm also an FBI and I'm part of the BAU, Behavioral Analysis Division."

Jack showed his ID very simply and stated his purpose.

"I'm on vacation right now, and I'm here at the invitation of Arya and her fiancé, who are my best friends in Los Angeles."

The old sheriff and the hunter Corey Lambert looked at each other in surprise, and their expressionless faces loosened a little at the same time.

Jack had a feeling that the sad and dead atmosphere that had been entwining the room had finally undergone something different at the moment when he revealed his identity.
