"Don't move!" While Jack held down Henry, Hodgner and Red stepped forward together to hold Michael Genesco, who was struggling to get up from the ground and subconsciously trying to protect his son.

On the other side, Henry was still screaming, and Jack removed his wrist joint, but didn't connect it for him.

The thought that the injuries on Jiejie's face were caused by protecting him and fighting Michael Genesco made him angry.

And this little rabbit cub actually pointed the gun at Jiejie in the end, pure and innocent, Jack has a small heart, and he will revenge on the spot if he has a grudge.

That is, there are too many people watching it, otherwise even if this kid is not allowed to open his brain, he will have to lie in the hospital bed for several months.

Hand over the handicap to Sheriff Parker, leaving the rest to the local police.

Andrea White was also brought to the scene by a police car, holding her son and crying bitterly, everyone in BAU understood the whole story, whether it was Emily or Rosie, they just stood aside and watched coldly.

Jack asks for gauze cotton balls, saline, and iodophor from the first responders to help Jiejie treat the wound, while Red chatters with concern.

"Rhett, I'm fine, I swear, just a little bruise." Jiejie comforted him.

"I don't think so, I saw at least two cuts, three bruises, including eye sockets, maybe the ribs were also fractured, I saw you hit your ribs hard during the fight, I strongly recommend you go to the hospital for a CT."

Before Red could finish speaking, Jack slipped aside and threw it to Hodchner, although this kid was not very enlightened in the affairs of men and women, but staring at his own woman like this made him a little unhappy.

Seeing that Jiejie took a small mirror to check a small abrasion on her cheek, Jack angrily put her down on his knee and rinsed her with saline.

"Now I know that I feel sorry for my face? Neither Hodgner nor I are here, and you are in such a hurry to rush in? ”

In public, it was the first time for the two to be so close in front of everyone at BAU, which made Jiejie feel a little uneasy and struggled to get up.

"Aren't you worried that he'll hurt the hostages, Jack, let go, I'll just deal with it myself."

"Don't move, I'm not responsible for the scar." Jack threatened viciously, and she was so frightened that she didn't dare to move.

"In the future, in this case, let Rhett go, his mouth cannon is much better than yours."

Emily walked over from the side, "Hey, boy, this makes me feel like you're looking down on us girls. ”

Jack hurriedly raised his hands in surrender, "Don't do that, I always thought of Red as if he was on your girls' side until he grew to 160 pounds, I was just saying that everyone has something they are good at. ”

Hearing this, Red retorted a little unconvinced, "I'm almost 170 pounds now." ”

Jack pursed his lips with a look of disdain, "The piglets I raised on the Wolf Brothers farm grow much faster than you, they only take a year to grow from 300 pounds, and you have only grown more than 20 pounds in almost two years under my careful feeding." ”

Although there is no such saying in European and American culture as eating people with short mouths, the truth is the same, and Red opened his mouth, and for a while he didn't know how to refute someone's fallacies.

Finally, after helping Jiejie bandage the small scratches on her arm, Jack patted her on the shoulder and made her sit up.

"Try not to get water on your arms, and I'll help you deal with the bruises on your face."

Rosie paced over slowly, and nodded at the mother and son hugging and crying not far away, "Are you really not going to help that child connect his wrist?" He's just a minor. ”

"No, that's a doctor's job, and I don't want to get in trouble with it." Jack shook his head.

Fortunately, there is no real "Virgin" here, and Rosie only casually mentioned it, and everyone put a little depression behind them, and began to discuss the evening's activities on the way back to Los Angeles.

It seems that after every case, it has become a common practice for everyone to get together and have a good time, but this case involves a bar, and everyone seems to think that this time it is a bit unlucky to go to the bar party.

In Eastern culture, it is said that misfortune does not come alone, while Europeans and Americans like to say: "Bad luck always comes in threes." ”

Jack didn't know what these people were thinking, so he simply clapped his hands, "Let's all go to my house, and buy some ingredients on the way." ”

Emily cheered, took out her cell phone and called Garcia, making an appointment to meet directly at Jack's house in the evening.

It was just after three o'clock in the afternoon when he got back to Los Angeles, and Jack had plenty of time to prepare dinner, which he was going to do, of course, with Spanish food that he had been researching for a while.

Grilled lamb chops, Spanish meatballs, garlic prawns, vegetable pancakes, seafood bisque, chili sautéed pork fillet, Basque beep cod, and finally a paella.

As for the somewhat terrible Spanish fritters, it was naturally replaced by Jack, who felt that the fritter was as bad as pouring sesame paste on top of a white-cut chicken.

As for the table wine, Jack brought up a large jar of two-pot prunes from the basement of his part-time small cellar in the underground gun hangar.

California prunes are native to Europe, but before the rise of Xinjiang prunes, prunes from California supplied 70% of the world's needs.

Almost 99 percent of prunes are grown in California, and the prunes ripen in August each year, and these prunes were brewed by Jack the year before, when he was still in Quantico at this time last year.

Compared with green plum wine, prunes have a higher sugar content and a stronger aroma, and Jack poured a small half glass for each person, adding ice cubes, which won unanimous praise.

After a full meal, the girls pulled Red to play mahjong on the square table, while Jack, Hodchner, and Rossi sat in rocking chairs under the eaves of the backyard, opened a bottle of sherry he had brought back from New York, and smoked up.

Hodgner used to not smoke and occasionally drink a little wine, but now he is middle-aged, but he is spoiled by this old and young, and occasionally follows Jack and Rosie, snorting a cigar and enjoying a rare comfort.

"Once unfaithful, a hundred times not used." Hodgner muttered the words, staring at the smoke rising into the night sky.

"Shakespeare?" Jack asked, not quite sure.

Rossi nodded, "From Shakespeare's Lord of Darkness, Richard III." ”

Feeling that Hodgner, who was middle-aged, had really been broken by this case, Jack thought about it and decided to comfort him in another way.

"Today I was in the kitchen and I saw a piece of potato that I had forgotten in the corner, really small, probably just a little bigger than my thumb."

Rossi and Hodgner looked sideways at him, not knowing what he was trying to say.

Jack continued, "I don't remember the last time I saw this little thing, maybe a few weeks, maybe a month or two ago?

It was just a small piece of potato that I had cut off, but when I found it today, I was surprised to see that there were sprouts growing on it. ”

"Are you lamenting the tenacity of life?" Hodgner wondered, as if trying to figure out what this guy had to do with what he was feeling.

"No, I'm sorry to throw it away, because sprouted potatoes are poisonous." Jack smiled in a treacherous way.

"You, Mr. Aaron Hodchner, have a happy life, a good wife, and a lovely little meanness, perhaps because of Genesco, who is also middle-aged, and you have some kind of empathy, but it is completely unnecessary.

I give this example because I want to tell you that I've had a lot of misfortune and struggled to survive, but I don't empathize with a potato that has struggled to sprout and move it from the kitchen to the backyard and plant it in the soil. ”

Hodgner couldn't help but laugh, "Okay, I'll admit that I may have overthought it, I apologize, and there will be no more emotions in the future." ”

Sorry for the late chapter, I'll code the next chapter right away
