Regardless of his identity as a detective, Lu Li also has the title of Lord, which means that he knows many powerful people. As long as he moves around a little, he can avoid falling into an isolated situation.

"Duke, don't worry about these trivial matters. Continue to dissect the body and see if you can determine the victim's time of death."

"It's a bit difficult. The deceased lost too much blood and the body spots are not obvious. In addition, the abdominal cavity is broken and the internal organs are fully exposed to the outside air. This method of measuring rectal temperature is not feasible."

Seeing that Lu Li had regained his confidence, Duke also wanted to go out and prove himself.

Unfortunately, the corpse was too badly damaged - the intestines were pulled out, and part of the other internal organs and digestive organs were placed on the left shoulder and part on the right shoulder. In this case, there were too many external interference factors, and temperature measurement was not feasible.

In fact, if he had not known in advance that the murderer was mentally ill, he would have thought that Jack the Ripper was performing some evil religious ritual.

Such as African shamans.

"so what should I do now?"

At this moment, Lu Li had the urge to put down his burden.

Why do some mentally retarded people always think they can do it?

Wouldn't it be enough to follow the established clues?

Perhaps sensing that Mr. Detective was angry, the police officer in charge of security took a few steps back for fear of getting into trouble.

"Mr. Detective, I will go and stand guard at the alley. If you need anything, please call me at any time."

"Okay, please."

Soon, footsteps sounded.

Not long after, silence returned to this blood-smelling alley once again.

"Oh, it would be great if we had modern electronic equipment."

Under the solemn atmosphere, Duke looked at the simple scalpel in his hand and shook his head, feeling that there was no place for a hero.

"Just do your best. There is still plenty of time left. Even if Scotland Yard is lost, there are other agencies willing to cooperate with us, such as the East District Citizens' Self-Defense Force."

Do your best and obey destiny.

The dissection involved technical issues, so Lu Li, a layman, pressed him to no avail, so he could only persuade Duke not to give up.

Of course, the so-called Eastern District Citizens’ Self-Defense Force is not just a random thing he made. It is indeed an organization that can be cooperated with.

According to what Officer Wensley said in the afternoon, this civil organization is headed by several retired military officers and its members are all local men in the East District. It aims to protect women's safety at night.

The most important thing is that they can legally hold guns and are well-trained!

When Lu Li lowered his head and thought about his next plan, a foul smell hit him.

"Oh my god, what are you doing again?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his head and started vomiting.

"It's getting late. I'm doing the final on-site inspection. If it still doesn't work, I have to give up temporarily."

Duke suppressed his nausea, cut open the stomach of the unknown female corpse, and gave a helpless answer.

"It would be nice to know when the deceased had their last meal."

"Generally speaking, in addition to the method of judging body spots and the method of measuring rectal temperature, gastrointestinal contents and time of death can also provide a certain reference.

If the stomach is full and the shape of the food is very clear, it can basically be determined that the victim has eaten and was killed within an hour;

If there are a lot of secretions in the stomach and there are obvious signs of chymosis in the food, it can be determined that the deceased had dinner within two hours before he was killed."

"There is no residue in the stomach of this corpse, and there is a small amount of pasty material in the duodenum... It can be basically determined that the time of death was about six hours after the meal."

"Let's talk about the rest tomorrow."

…

West London, Baker Street.

Around seven o'clock in the morning, a carriage broke through the thick fog and stopped in front of the single-family apartment.

"Sir, we have arrived."

The coachman took off his holster, knocked on the frame of the carriage with his frostbitten hands, and said, "I should charge you a total of three shillings and twelve pence."

"Trouble."

Lu Li pulled the handle and got out of the car, then took out a silver coin from his wallet and handed it to the driver. Without waiting for him to change, he turned and walked towards the newsstand behind him.

A few minutes later.

【Whitechapel Murder·2】

Looking past the headlines of this issue, Lu Li, who looked exhausted, cheered up, knocked on the glass window, and looked at the newsstand owner: "How much does one copy cost?"

"Sevenpence, sir."

As he said that, the old man handed over a stack of neat and brand-new newspapers. Lu Li took out his wallet and rummaged around for a while. Since he couldn't find any small denomination copper coins, he handed out a florin: "Do you have the previous issues of the newspaper?

Please give me one, please."

Hearing this, the old man nodded.

While he was looking for old newspapers, Lu Li unfolded the newspaper and quickly read the news of this issue.

[Jack the Ripper! Following the street girl Martha Tabulian, another bloody murder occurred, just one day apart. 】

[Last night, a madman broke into the Whitechapel District Police Station and handed over a provocation letter on behalf of the murderer. According to insiders, the murderer called himself "Jack the Ripper, from hell." Soon after, the police arrived at the dark corner of Brady Street.

, an unknown female corpse was found...]

At this time, the old man guarding the newsstand stood up. He happened to see the guest staring at the newspaper in silence, so he couldn't help but sigh:

"Well, another person died last night, and the executioner threatened to kill two more people tonight."

"I know."

Hearing this, Lu Li had mixed feelings in his heart. He replied casually and returned his eyes to the newspaper, because he felt that except for the murderer himself, probably no one knew more inside information than him——

First, he accompanied Duke to dissect the body on a rainy night, then surveyed the scene, and finally handed the report to the police officer who stayed behind before returning to rest for a while.

Frankly speaking, he is exhausted both physically and mentally now, but the inaction of the police is even more chilling.

special advisor = tool person

After busying around all day, he finally discovered something, but was kicked away by the senior people. This feeling of being reduced to a subordinate made Lu Li want to kill those guys who were in the prime position.

[This murderer is extremely cunning, and his behavior is very cautious. There is no way to track him. Perhaps, after losing the help of Far East detectives, the Scotland Yard police officers can only rely on luck to catch him. 】

After hurriedly browsing the Times in his hand, Lu Li turned around and walked towards the apartment. He wanted to know what gave the police the confidence to interrupt cooperation and switch to another line of investigation.

[Last night, plainclothes police discovered three witnesses who witnessed the murder]

[According to insiders, around 10:30 the day before yesterday, due to a family dispute, Kevin Rankin gathered two other gangsters and made an appointment to kill Martha Tablian. As a result, they arrived one step late and met the murderer face to face.
