The only evidence Reid has that she's lying is instinct, but he doesn't want to push the matter when he can't be sure that what she does know has anything to do with this. He's met quite a few people now who are familiar with vampires, whether that's because they've come from a world where vampires exist themselves or they've just been here long enough to already have come across their fair share.
Asking more on the subject would likely only feel Rae like she's under interrogation for something she's likely had nothing to do with, because as much as her body language is of the considerably shifty variety, the hint of relief that'd overcome her after being told it's been a couple months since the attacks had started makes Reid believe that this body's the first vampire victim she's seen in Darrow.
"Okay, so you don't know anything," he says, nodding like he's perfectly willing to accept that, "and you want to get out of here, I completely understand."
Reid pauses, glancing over his shoulder at the crime scene before looking back at Rae. He knows he shouldn't do what he's about to do, but he knows what's waiting behind him. Reid knows the M.O., he knows what the wounds will look like, and he knows that unless he digs deeper, he won't learn anything new. Maybe with Rae, he can.
"Listen, I know that seeing something like this can be disturbing. There's a small coffee shop not far from here, you probably pass it on your way to work all the time. Can I get you a cup?"
