Summary
What if Hannibal never consulted for the FBI and they met on their way to a forensic psychology conference instead?
_____
“Are you headed to LA for business or pleasure,” he asked.
Will was relieved to see that the rude man’s shoulders were pointed toward the aisle seat. After perhaps a second too long, the man on the aisle said “neither” in a neutral, clipped way. And Will detected an accent somewhere in the word – the r was much softer than an American might say it. “I am not going to LA at all, merely transferring planes.”
“Are you headed to Hawaii for that CSI conference then?”
“CSI…” the man replied, confused but with no real curiosity behind the prompt.
“Well the stewardess said something about a forensics conference.”
“Ah yes,” came the velvety voice, “forensic psychology. Yes, I am attending that conference.”
“So what is that then, forensic psychology?”
“It’s the study of humans – why they do what they do.” The man paused for a moment, then added, somewhat pointedly: “Specifically, why they kill.”
