at noon.

East London, Kitty Restaurant.

This restaurant, which also operates a hotel business, has just opened. There are not many diners, and they are scattered in various areas, chatting with each other.

"As my eyes gradually adapted to the dim light in the alley, I saw a sight that I will never forget in my lifetime."

"A woman fell there, lying on her back, with her clothes lifted to her waist..."

Everyone has the desire to gossip.

Especially things with a meaty flavor can make people a little more interested.

At the banquet, a man with a beard put down the beer in his hand and asked: "What next?"

"My throat is a bit dry, my friend, don't you have anything to say?" This short middle-aged man with a high nose bridge and a tapering chin raised his wine glass, and the meaning was self-evident.

"Bartender, give this well-informed man a dark beer and charge it to my account."

Lu Li patted the table, turned to look at the waitress whose breasts were proportional to his age, whistled, and acted like he was a regular customer.

Duke, who was sitting aside waiting for lunch, muttered something that seemed to be "acting like a gangster", but his voice was not clear.

A few hours ago, the two of them hurriedly left King's College. When they arrived at Whitechapel, they remembered that they had not eaten. They were so hungry that they could not cheer up without eating.

Then, I finally found a restaurant that was open, only to find that all the diners sitting here were talking about the Jack the Ripper case.

In fact, they were all talking nonsense. As the first person to arrive at the scene, Duke was extremely convinced of this.

Unfortunately, Lu Li was very interested in this.

"Friend, continue to tell me what you saw?"

"That's right, don't keep people appetizing." Duke said mockingly, "If you can make up an interesting story, I can consider refilling your glass."

"Hey, my friend, little William never lies."

After taking the beer from the female bartender, the pointed-haired man took a nice sip and continued: "To be honest, I have seen that woman several times before. She is different from other cheap vagabonds."

different?

Lu Li's eyes lit up.

Frankly speaking, he came here mainly to fill his stomach, but he met a group of people chatting about the recent serial murder case, so he simply stopped and listened.

After all, it is better to believe that something exists than to believe something does not exist.

It's just the price of a glass of wine. If you can really get some valuable information, it's worth another hundred.

"Her name is Mary. She is young and beautiful, tall and plump. She usually dresses neatly and has a smile as sweet as a lily. It is precisely because of her good looks that several men are raising her at the same time, so she does not need to be like most

Like a wandering warbler, he goes to the streets to solicit customers."

"In the end, he was killed. The death was due to strangulation. The murder weapon was probably a riding crop on the side."

Duke sneered, and he became more and more certain that this guy was cheating on food and drink.

Coincidentally, at this time, the waiter brought over the steak that he had ordered earlier. It was only right to concentrate on filling your stomach and get to work quickly.

Thinking of this, Duke pulled Lu Li and told him to eat quickly and go to various nearby clinics to investigate earlier.

"Don't you think that guy is lying? He has a name, a cause of death, and a murder weapon."

Before Lu Li lowered his head, he glanced at the man who called himself Little William. His face turned red. When faced with other people's questions, he became extremely angry and kept swearing.

"Who is telling lies? I saw it with my own eyes. If you don't believe it, just ask someone to go to the police station to inquire."

"The liar will kill the whole family!"

This posture is about to explode on the spot.

Could it be that there were other murders last night?

Out of the detective's professional habits, Lu Li subconsciously started to analyze and think.

Duke put down the knife and fork in his hand and said from the bottom of his heart: "Brother, so what if what he said is true? You know, London is a huge city with a population of one million. There are all kinds of miscellaneous things, and the people are simple and honest.

Does Gotham City know? It’s almost the same.”

"And we only have one pair of eyes, just keep staring at Jack the Ripper." As he spoke, he lowered his voice and added: "Clear priorities, and you must not let the Virgin's heart overflow."

"Don't worry, I have never given up on tracking down the main target. If that weird college is hell, then we must be the ghosts who live the most nourishing life and go to some top class."

Lu Li said calmly:

"But don't you think it's a coincidence? At the same time that Jack the Ripper committed the crime, another murder case suddenly broke out."

"Don't forget, darkness and light exist together. With detectives and forensic doctors, why are there no criminals?"

[Nemesis of justice, join the chaos camp, why can’t evil prevail over good? That’s nonsense! How could you be missing in the city of sin? Please feel free to make a scene. 】

Two days later, the content on the blackboard was still printed in Duke's mind. Lu Li mentioned it casually, and he instantly thought of a possibility.

"Friend, I am a doctor and can help testify." Duke was by no means a fool. He suppressed the various emotions in his heart and said loudly: "The premise is that you can tell what characteristics the lady had after her death.

"

Hearing this, Little William, who was being ridiculed by everyone, instantly looked over and looked carefully——

They were two men wearing dark coats and hard-shell top hats. They were wearing ties and their clothes were well-tailored. You could tell at a glance that they were expensive. Moreover, their temperament was incompatible with Whitechapel. They seemed to be coming from Westminster Abbey.

The master.

"The light is so dim, it's hard to see clearly." He complained softly, and then shouted: "However, I smelled a foul smell, and her face was swollen and her eyes were bloodshot."

Hearing this, Lu Li was convinced that this guy wasn't bragging on purpose. During the autopsy last night, Duke had mentioned the characteristics of mechanical asphyxia: incontinence of urine and feces, and hemorrhage of the eyelids and conjunctiva.

However, nothing is confirmed.

It's just a small interlude before dinner. Just don't affect their investigation in the afternoon.

At this time, Duke, who was the center of attention, shrugged and said, "Okay, I believe what you said, and I will vouch for it as a medical professor."

"Bartender, please give everyone here a glass of bourbon. I'll pay for it."

After saying that, he took out his wallet from his pocket and counted a few banknotes: "There are three pounds here. No need to change. The extra money is all for tips."

After being tense all day, it was rare for him to relax, so Duke simply bought a ticket for everyone.

Seeing this guy being so arrogant, Lu Li smiled and shook his head, deliberately joking: "Professor, would you like to treat me to another bean stew?"

Frankly speaking, the pea stew in this restaurant is very good, fragrant and glutinous and not greasy.

"my pleasure."

"But have you decided where to go first after eating?"
