Chapter 3: The lie detector

After they got the call, Sue and Jack went quickly to the bullpen. When they walk in, everybody was already there.

'' Hey gang, something is weird here, Lucy brings Levi with her and Sue and Jack come together. '' Said Bobby

'' Yes, it true, Why are they together on a Sunday afternoon? '' Asked D

Nobody answered to this question.

'' If nobody wants to answer, we will assume that they were on a date, don't they? '' Said Miles

'' I hope it's true because this means that our favorite couple recently divorced is back together. '' Said Tara

'' That is a big new, does it. '' Said Bobby '' Just make a sign for the answer. ''

Sue and Jack make a yes in sign language.

'' Finally a good new. '' Said D

When Ted walks in, Sue and Jack got apart and when at their desk.

'' I know we are supposed to be in holiday, but James Scott worked in the personal office here in D.C and this is the fourth murders in one week and they are all make by the same killer. '' Began Ted

'' How do we know that? '' Asked Miles

'' The Killer left a note at each crime scene. Only one word on a piece of paper writes by hand, not by a computer and they all dead by stab. I asked for the information about the other murders. You will have it soon. If you need me, you know where to find me. '' Said Ted before he quit.

'' Do someone knows James Scott? '' Asked Lucy

'' No, he was new since only a few weeks. '' Answered Jack

'' I receive the information. I put it on the screen. '' Said Tara

There was a picture of the first victim, a young boy, and all the information about him.

'' First victim: Paul Victor Graham. 20 years old, single, no child. He was mechanic. Always lived here in Washington where he opens his garage 2 years ago with his father's money. His garage is specializing in tuning. He was the bad boy in his family, he had 2 others brothers all with good education. He was always on party. He was arrested a few times for driving with alcohol. He was finding dead by his friend, Dean Sullivan, in his garage the morning after he was kill. '' Said Tara '' On the note, it was writing: idiot.

Then another picture takes the place, a woman.

'' Second victim: Rose Alexia Fortier. 50 years old, divorced since 15 years, one daughter who didn't live with her. She lived in Washington. She worked as a waitress in a restaurant, but 10 years ago, she was a teacher, she resign, but nobody knows why. She didn't have history with the police. She was finding by her daughter in her house. She had a quiet life and she was about to become grand mother. The note said: Help? '' Said D

The other picture was a young woman.

'' Third victim: Anne-Marie James. 19 years old. She was a Canadian, but lived and studied here. She was a student at George Washington University. She had good grade, a good behavior and a good scholarship. She didn't live on the campus, because she hated party. No boyfriend. She also had a quiet life. She was finding by her friend from Canada, Vanessa Roberts, in her apartment. The note said: Love. '' Said Bobby.

The last picture, James Scott. Everybody in the bullpen had seen him one time.

'' Last victim: James Robert Scott. 30 years old, single, no child. He just got transfer from Boston. He was the new member in the personal office. He was finding by one of his neighbor, name Ayla Munoz who heard nothing weird, because his door was open. The note said: work '' said Miles

While the team described the victims, Sue didn't say a word. She hates that when the case was about murders. All this innocent people kill with no reason. Sue fells so helpless for them.

'' Did they have something in common? '' Asked Sue

'' Nothing is find yet, but we will because they were all killed at their place and it's surprise me if the killer just pick them in the street and fallow them for no reason. '' Said D

'' Sometimes, serial killers are surprising. '' Added Miles

'' Miles, D and Bobby, you go at the apartment of James Scott to see if you can find something more. Tara, Sue and me will stay here to find the link between this 4 victims. '' Said Jack

'' This is so cute, Jack wants to stay here with his ex-wife and now girlfriend. Don't make out in the conference room. Maybe they need to be watch. '' Said Bobby

'' I and Lucy will keep an eye on them. '' Said Tara

'' The only reason why I won't go with you guys is because we're suppose to be on holiday and I'm trying not to see your face until tomorrow, so I can think I'm still in holiday. '' Replied Jack

'' But seeing Sue's face is different. '' Said Miles

'' Yes, because her face is prettier than yours. '' Added Jack

'' He says that because he thinks I will forget that he owes me a lunch if he is sweet with me and if he stays here with me. But Jack, I won't forget no matter what you will do for me. '' Said Sue, smiling at Jack

'' I would never hope for something like that, I know you never forget a free lunch. '' Said Jack with a smile for Sue

'' We're going guys; don't forget to keep an eye on them. '' Said D

'' Don't worry. '' Said Lucy

There they was, 8 pm and with nothing more than they already know since the beginning. Bobby, Miles and Dimitrius came back with nothing more than the police had already find, so they joined the others to find the link. Apparently, the victims had nothing in common except living in Washington DC.

'' Maybe they have just one person in common. '' Proposed Sue

'' Yes, but we can't know that, maybe he meted someone on the internet, the other on the street and the victim never see him until he kills him. '' Said Miles

'' Three victims had a quiet life, one maybe a life too quiet, and the fourth is completely the opposite. '' Said Bobby

'' A mechanic with no education, an ex teacher, a student in dietetics and someone in the FBI. '' Said Tara '' nothing in common. ''

After that, there was a moment of silence.

'' Let's go home, maybe tomorrow we will find something. '' Said Lucy

'' Good idea. '' Said Jack

Everybody get up.

'' Sue, do you want to go home with me or...'' began Lucy

'' I will drive her home, Lucy. '' Said Jack '' Our date isn't finish yet. ''

'' That was what I'm thinking. '' Said Lucy '' Good night everyone. '' She quit

'' The date isn't finish...that is a good sign, isn't it? '' Said Bobby and he hit on the back of Jack

'' So good end of the date. '' Said D

'' Don't do crazy things. '' Said Tara

'' And remember, tomorrow is Monday. '' Said Miles

There was only Sue and Jack left in the room.

'' I think we will never be over with them. '' Said Jack, approaching to Sue

'' Yes, me too. '' Said Sue

'' You're ready. '' Asked Jack near of Sue.

'' Yes. ''

'' And you Levi? ''

Levi barked, happy to be with Sue and Jack.

'' You're so a popular guy. '' Said Sue to Jack

They went out, hand by hand.

A few minutes later, they were at Sue's apartment door.

'' It was an excellent date Jack. ''

'' Yes, besides the return to work and I own you lunch, it was. '' Said Jack

They were about to kiss, but Sue said, a little louder:

'' Lucy...''

The voice of Lucy came through the door.

'' Ok, I gave you some privacy. ''

After that, they kissed.

The next day, everybody was in the bullpen, trying to find the new serial killer. Lucy answered to a phone call, she hangs up and she went in the center of the bullpen.

'' Hey gang; today is the annual test with the lie detector. Sue, Jack, you start. ''

'' Weird, it's our favorite happy couple. '' Said Bobby before they went out

Jack passed the test first. They asked him all the usual questions, like:

'' Did you tell somebody in your family some information from the FBI? ''

A few minutes later, the interrogation was about to finish. That was Jack was thinking, because they asked him all the questions from the past year.

'' A last question agent Hudson. A new one: Were you or are you dating someone in the FBI? ''
