Chapter 611 Bait for Jack the Ripper

Tick, tick, tick.

After asking Shousha to return the letter found in the hospital to the court, Alice Watson did not rush back, but continued to wander the streets of old London late at night with Mao Lilan.

She was certain that Jack the Ripper would not commit only one crime tonight.

The serial killer's crimes have become more and more arrogant and crazy, and with a scapegoat, he doesn't even have to worry about being investigated by the police if he commits a crime tonight.

This means that Jack the Ripper could potentially commit two or even more crimes today!

"That is to say, after Jack the Ripper made Yashuangyi take the blame and completed his third crime, he would definitely continue to look for targets to complete his fourth crime."

"It's just... I have no way of knowing where Jack the Ripper will appear..."

Miss Alice was a little distressed.

After all, old London was too large. Even if Jack the Ripper only committed crimes in nearby neighborhoods, the area was still too large for two people, and they couldn't even act separately.

Because if we act separately, there is a high probability that we will achieve the epic achievement of one death and one delivery.

"…If Jack the Ripper will complete four crimes tonight, I guess he will also commit a fifth crime tonight?"

Ran Mao Li, who was following Alice, suddenly said.

This made Alice look back at Mao Lilan with some confusion. She didn't know how Mao Lilan came to this conclusion. Why would Jack the Ripper commit the fifth crime after completing the fourth crime?
This would certainly be difficult for Alice Watson, who exists inside the game scene, to understand.

But for Mao Lilan, who entered the game from outside the game and knew everything about Jack the Ripper, this was an obvious thing. Xiaolan said calmly.

"Jack the Ripper would only commit five crimes before sending a letter to the old London police, mocking their incompetence, and then he would stop completely and would not commit a sixth crime."

The reason why Mao Lilan said this is that in the real world, Jack the Ripper has five records of murders that he definitely committed, so in the game it is likely that Jack the Ripper will kill five people.

Now Yasou Yoshiichi has been arrested and an emergency trial is being held overnight. Moreover, the night in old London is so long that it seems as if there will never be dawn... This may be a hidden hint that Noah's Ark gives to players.

If Jack the Ripper is not caught, brought to trial, and convicted before he kills five people, the game will fail and the sun will no longer rise over Old London.

The Kung Fu Girl stepped on the ground. Although she was not good at thinking, she was still trying her best to think.

"But now, we only know Jack the Ripper's clothes. His true identity... is completely hidden in the fog of old London. We have no way of knowing..."

"To catch Jack the Ripper tonight... is simply impossible."

Now most of the police forces of Scotland Yard are busy with the Ya Shuangyi case. Even if they can spare some time to deal with other murders, they can only pay attention to the crime scene of one more murder.

So, if Jack the Ripper killed the fourth person and then went on to kill the fifth person...

I'm afraid the officers of Scotland Yard would not have known that another murder had occurred during this long night until Jack the Ripper sent a taunting letter.

"Do we have to catch Jack the Ripper tonight?"

There was some doubt and confusion in Alice's eyes.

Not to mention the extremely low visibility at night, the police force of Scotland Yard alone is seriously insufficient, and there is no way to properly complete the investigation and evidence collection at the crime scene.

The trial in Old London could be delayed for up to three days. As long as Naruhodō presented an evidence that needed to be investigated or a special incident that needed to be investigated in the court, the case would be delayed until the next day.

Why is Mao Lilan so anxious to solve the case tonight?
The little doctor of medicine was a little confused and reached out to touch his forehead.

A sound similar to the fluctuation of an electrical signal was heard.

"This is Old London Late Night Radio, here for you."

"Late this evening, the abominable Jack the Ripper committed another brutal crime."

"He used a dagger in..."

…Jack the Ripper’s fourth crime has occurred.

Mao Lilan's heart tightened, but Alice was a little confused.

She opened her arms, stopped Mao Lilan who wanted to speed up her patrol, and then spoke loudly.

"Xiaolan! There's something wrong with the radio information this time!"

Having problems with the station information?
What's the problem? Isn't Jack the Ripper going to commit his fourth crime tonight?

The address of the crime scene mentioned in the radio broadcast this time is different from the address where Ya Shuangyi was arrested...

Could it be that this is not the crime scene address of Jack the Ripper's fourth crime?
Just as Mao Lilan was about to ask more, she heard Alice's affirmative response.

"It is impossible for a reporter at a late night radio station to operate late at night because the manuscript is written during the day."

"It is impossible for it to broadcast what happened tonight in real time, unless someone deliberately found a radio station and asked it to broadcast this incident, and it was mentioned [once] instead of [twice]!"

Alice Watson's little face was full of seriousness. She stretched out her hand and raised two fingers.

"Not counting the murder of Dr. Baosheng tonight, there are two cases where Jack the Ripper actually committed a crime. One is the case where Yashuangyi was arrested, and the other is the case that is being broadcast on the radio now."

"The former happened earlier, but the radio reporter did not report it. Instead, he reported the new case information and even released the address of the crime scene of the new case. It's like..."

pat.

Miss Alice snapped her fingers, and her cool pose was exactly the same as Holmes who was still in the underground sewer maze.

“…It’s like a bait!”

"Bait?"

Mao Lilan blinked, not quite understanding what Miss Alice said.

"Yes, this is the bait, and it is the bait for Jack the Ripper."

"The frequency of Jack the Ripper's crimes is getting shorter and shorter, which means his psychology is getting more and more distorted and he is paying less and less attention to rules. Under such circumstances, if he heard someone imitating his name and committing crimes..."

"I think there's a good chance he'll go to the crime scene to see what his fan's masterpiece looks like."

Alice Watson said with full energy.

"That is to say, this is the only way to catch Jack the Ripper tonight!"
