Chapter 773: Study on the Incident of Jack the Ripper (Please Vote and Subscribe!!!)

"Found it."

Standing next to the bookcase, Hui Yuan Ai came over with a large and thick book in his arms, stood on tiptoes, put the book on the round table, and said:

"This is an investigative record written by Holmes himself."

[Research on the events of Jack the Ripper]

Everyone looked at each other, nodded and said:

"Sure enough, Holmes is also investigating Jack the Ripper."

"here you go."

Sakaki picked up his girlfriend, put her on his knees, and reached out to open the records.

[On August 7, 1888, the body of a female victim was found outside Whitechapel in the East End. The deceased was a middle-aged woman named Martha Taboulian. She had been stabbed thirty-nine times, nine of which had been across the throat. 】

[At 3:45 a.m. on August 31, another woman, Mary Ann Nicholas, was found dead in a stocking area near Whitechapel. She was 43 years old. Not only was her face bruised and some of her front teeth missing, but her neck was also cut twice. But the most cruel thing is that the abdomen was cut open, the intestines were dragged out, and the baby girl in the belly was severely stabbed with a sharp knife. 】

[On September 8, an old coachman living at No. 29 Hanburning Street found a female body in the fence behind his low-cost rental apartment. The deceased was a 47-year-old female Anne Chapman. Like the previous deceased, her throat was slit and her abdomen was disemboweled. Her intestines were thrown onto her right shoulder, and part of the uterus and abdominal flesh were cut away by the murderer. There were obvious strangulation marks on his neck. It is said that he called for help before his death, but no attention was paid to him. 】

Holmes' investigation records only recorded three murders committed by Jack the Ripper before his business trip. As for the corpses Sakaki and others encountered today, there was no record.

"You see, at the murder scene on September 8, Scotland Yard (London) police also found two rings of different sizes!"

Hattori Heiji pointed to the black and white photo in the corner of the record and said:

"In the previous cases, Jack the Ripper never left any clues!"

This discovery attracted everyone's attention. The rings in the photo were one large and one small. They were obviously a pair and looked a bit like wedding rings.

"Jack the Ripper's targets were all middle-aged prostitutes. Could it have something to do with the ring?"

Conan said thoughtfully:

"It's strange. After Mr. Sakaki Cheng mentioned Jack the Ripper's name, I went to investigate him, but there was no record of the ring."

"This is a game. After all, the case of Jack the Ripper has not been solved in reality."

Sakaki said calmly:

"It is estimated that the ring was a clue specially added by the maker, otherwise the difficulty would be too high."

A case that even Scotland Yard police failed to solve in 1888 is put into a game for all ages.

Obviously not suitable.

Without the help of NPC, it might become an unsolved case again.

Judging from the current situation, Holmes and Watson are NPCs designed by the producers to help players. But now that they have left London, players must work hard to catch Jack the Ripper.

Conan's thoughts were a bit overwhelming for a moment. The game was adapted and was not exactly the same as the real case. The mysterious ring was undoubtedly the key to catching Jack the Ripper.

"Why did Jack the Ripper choose the Whitechapel area to commit his crime?"

After some thinking, Sawada Hongshu asked seriously:

"Now that he has revealed his pattern of committing crimes, wouldn't it be enough to increase the police presence in the Whitechapel area as a precaution?"

"It's not that simple."

Nestled in her boyfriend's arms, Haiyuan Ai carefully blew the steaming milk tea and said:

"London was a mixed bag at the end of the 19th century, and the Whitechapel area was a famous immigration center at that time, with a large number of immigrants from Russia and East Asia, numbering tens of thousands."

"Due to the meager income of the people at the bottom, the Whitechapel area has become a hotbed of poverty and crime, with many homeless gangsters and prostitutes living on the streets."

"And Scotland Yard is the London Police. At that time, the total police force was only 10,000 people. How could it possibly control the Whitechapel area?"

"In this era, behind the light are dank corners full of pustules. There are as many criminals as microorganisms. The police alone cannot do it."

"I see."

Zetian Hongshu nodded slightly:

"No wonder there were so many unsolved cases back then."

Click.

The closed door opened again, and Mrs. Hudson came in with tea, put the cream cake on the table, and invited:

"I have prepared some cakes for you. Let's all eat together."

"No Mrs. Hudson!"

Jumping off the chair, Conan declined politely:

"We have something else to do, so we have to say goodbye first!"

"Leaving so soon?"

Mrs. Hudson was stunned for a moment:

"You can stay here tonight."

"Holmes also said before he left that if the Baker Street team came to visit while he was away, please treat them well."

"You have entertained me well, we really have something else to do!"

"Oh well"

Seeing that Conan insisted on leaving, Mrs. Hudson no longer tried to persuade him to stay. She just put the cakes on the table into boxes and asked them to take them back to eat.

"Right."

Before leaving, Sakaki suddenly said to her:

"Mrs. Hudson, do you have a map of London?"

"have."

Mrs. Hudson turned and walked into the house and took out a detailed drawing:

"This is hand-drawn by Holmes. It records many important places. If you need it, take it."

"Thank you."

Without hesitation, Makoto Sakaki accepted the map. He really needed it now.

After leaving 221b Baker Street, everyone returned to the foggy city and braved the cold wind.

"Where are we going next?"

Ran Mouri said:

"We spent so much time but didn't find any useful clues."

"Ran, we have a lot of clues."

With his hands behind his head, Conan, who was walking in the front, was in a good mood:

"Next, we are going to the poker club to find Colonel Moran."

"Isn't he Professor Moriarty's subordinate?"

Ran Mouri said puzzledly:

"Colonel Moran, who is known as the second most dangerous person in London, will help us?"

"Colonel Moran is Professor Moriarty's subordinate, as is Jack the Ripper! As long as we find Professor Moriarty, can't we find out the whereabouts of Jack the Ripper?"

Makoto Sakaki agreed with this answer.

In an open game world like this, since there is no rule on how to catch Jack the Ripper, there is no need to care about the means.

Why did Sherlock Holmes leave his gun at home when he was on a business trip?

The answer is simple.

The game provides players with a second simple and quick ending method.

Raid the poker club, catch Moriarty, and kill Jack the Ripper!

It is extremely difficult to do this with just a Remington 1858 revolver, but

it also depends on who uses it.
