Arriving at the bar where Kelly once worked, Ahes noticed that the current bartender was a man.
"What do you want?" The bartender looked at Ahs and Moulton.
"Don't ask for anything. We are the police and we have some questions to ask you."
"Police, wait a moment, I have many customers here," the bartender said.
Moulton took out a few bills from his pocket and handed them over.
"Uh, okay, what do you want to ask?" He put down the shaking shaker pot in his hand and approached the two of them.
"Do you know Mary Kelly?"
"Of course I know her. She was my previous bartender. She hasn't been here for a while. What happened to her?"
"Dead." Moulton said calmly. This was the third time he had explained Mary's death to others.
"Dead!"
"Keep your voice down," Ahs said. "We want to know if Kelly was harassed by anyone in the bar."
"Harassment?"
"Her ex-husband Ian said she had done inappropriate things in pubs and we wanted to know if that was true."
"No, this is nonsense. Miss Kelly is an upright person and has never done anything like that!" the bartender said affirmatively, "but as for harassment, someone has molested Miss Kelly, but it didn't succeed. Every time, she has to go out of her way.
Miss Kelly will stop them, and when she gets off work, she will go home with some of our men."
"It seems that Ian said that the lip marks on her body were accidentally left by those men when they teased Kelly, and the cigarette smell was accidentally left on her when she went back with the people in these bars." Ahs thought.
think.
From this point of view, Kelly was not unfaithful to Ian, and their divorce was purely caused by Ian himself.
The investigation at the bar has also come to an end, and there is still no progress in the case.
"The trial in the Book of Mist is really difficult." Moulton said he wanted to go home, while Ahs was smoking a cigarette and walking back to the police station.
On the way, Ahs saw Kelly's mother Flynn.
Flynn was holding the bread she bought in her hand and chatting with several women.
"Isn't she mentally ill? She looks normal. And Lumen would let a mentally ill person wander around?" Ahs thought to himself.
After Flynn finished chatting with the women, Ahs walked up.
"Hello, Ms. Flynn," Ahs said.
"Ah, you are Lu Men's friend."
"No, I'm not his friend." After hesitating, Ahes said, "I'm a policeman."
"Police? But you were..."
"There were some things that made it difficult to explain our identities at that time." Ahes rolled his eyes and said, "I want to tell you something. Your daughter, Mary Kelly, was killed the day before yesterday."
Upon hearing this, Flynn dropped the bag in her hand to the ground.
"Kelly, was killed?"
"I want to know why she moved from home to a hotel." Ahs asked immediately. "Her ex-husband Ian said it was her father's fault, but Kelly's father, your husband Lu Men,
We learned from the mouth that there should be no conflict between the father and daughter, so I suspect that Lu Men may be lying. He told us that you have mental problems and cannot answer our questions normally. Now I hope you can tell me
, the truth about Kelly moving away from home.”
Flynn's body was shaking as she bent down and picked up the bag.
"I do have some mental problems..." Flynn trembled and covered one of her eyes, "But I still know why Kelly moved away."
"Why?"
"Because of Lu Men, he went to find Kelly."
"Then what?"
"He violated Kelly..."
"You, what did you say? Lu Men gave Kelly to..."
"This is not the first time. Lumen has done this kind of thing a long time ago. After learning that Kelly and Ian were divorced, Lumen immediately went to find Kelly. This is probably Kelly.
The reason for moving away." Flynn said with trembling lips, "Lu Men threatened me not to tell anyone, otherwise he would kill me. I, I really..."
Ahs bit his lip.
"But the person who killed Kelly couldn't be Lumen." Flynn shook her head and said, "He was indeed at home at the time you mentioned, and he had no reason to kill Kelly."
"He is a pervert and a lunatic, but he does cherish Kelly. Kelly has loved pianos since she was a child, and he would buy them for her. Kelly would press the keys according to the musical score every time, mumbling something...
It means do, 2 means re..." As she said that, Flynn collapsed completely and knelt on the ground in pain.
"It's all my fault. If I hadn't been too cowardly to indulge Lu Men, Kelly would never be like this. Please, sir, police officer, catch the real murderer to avenge my daughter. Thinking that that guy is still at large, my
My heart hurts so much." Flynn cried as she knelt on the ground, grabbing Ahes' clothes.
"...I, I understand." Ahs helped Flynn up, "I will definitely catch the real murderer, and we will also arrest Lumen, please don't worry."
Afterwards, Ahes contacted Moulton and asked him to arrest Lu Men, while he went to another place.
"Hello." After knocking on the door, a woman walked out of the room.
"Hello, may I ask who you are..."
"I would like to ask for the phone number to order this milk." Ahes said, pointing to the bottle at the door.
"Oh, this, wait a minute." The woman took the milk back to the room, and then took out a note.
"Thank you. By the way, do you know the name of this milkman?" Ahs asked.
"Ah, that phone number is their company phone number, not his personal phone number, but I still know his name, because every time the milk bottle is delivered, there is a small note on it. In addition to the milliliters of milk, the company's trademark is on it.
, and also write the name of the delivery person." The woman said.
"It seems that Kelly tore off the little note."
"His name is John Lacido," the woman said.
Ahs called the milk ordering company and inquired about the milk deliveryman who specializes in delivering milk to Eddos Street, which is the street where Kelly lives.
Arriving at the address, Ahers knocked on the door. Ahers already knew what was going on.
However, after knocking for a long time, no one opened the door.
Just when Ahes was about to force his way in, his neighbor suddenly walked out of the house next to him.
"Hey, what are you doing!" The neighbor yelled when he saw Ahes preparing to kick the door.
"I'm the police!" Ahes said immediately, "Do you know where this family has gone?"
"No, I don't know." The neighbor walked up and said.
"Tsk, damn it." Ahes clicked his tongue and kicked him up. Unfortunately, it had no effect. He didn't have the lock-picking skills of Moulton, so he had to take out his pistol and prepare to smash the door lock directly.
"Wait a minute." The neighbor stopped Ahes at this time, "I saw him take out the spare key from under the carpet some time ago."
"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Ahes immediately lifted up the carpet, and sure enough there was a key underneath. He opened the door, and Ahes found that the house was in a mess.
"What, what's going on!" the neighbor said in shock.
"Have you seen him today?"
"Of course I have seen it. He went to deliver milk in the morning. He is a deliveryman." The neighbor said.
"Hmph, did you realize that you might be exposed and run away?" Ahes snorted coldly and dialed Moulton's number again.
"Hey, Moulton, immediately send people to block the exits of the entire city and conduct a comprehensive search for a milkman named John Lacido."
About half a day later, Ahes received news from Moulton that Lacido had been caught and was now in the police station.
"I said, is he Jack the Ripper?" Moulton asked when he came to the police station.
"I don't know if it was Jack the Ripper, but at least Kelly was killed by him." As he said that, Ahes walked to the interrogation room, where a man who looked to be in his thirties was sitting there.
"John Lacido, a Polish Jew, used to be a doctor. After he injured his hand, he became a milkman. What I said is correct." Ahes said while looking at the information in his hand.
"Yes, but does this have anything to do with you arresting me?" Lassido asked calmly.
"The police caught you at the port. Where are you going?"
"France."
"What to do."
"Travel." Lacido seemed a little impatient, "May I ask why you are asking for these."
"It's nothing, but you are lying, you are not traveling." Ahs shook his head and said, "You have discovered it, you may have been found, Jack the Ripper."
"What are you talking about?"
"Tell me, where were you at one o'clock in the morning the day before yesterday."
"at home."
"At home? Who can prove it?"
"No one can prove that I am the only one in my family."
"The victim, Mary Kelly, wrote three numbers on the sheets, 678." Ahes ignored Lacydo and said to himself, "Do you know what these three numbers mean?"
"Haha, how do I know."
"Kelly liked to play the piano during her lifetime. In her digital music score, the pronunciations of the three numbers 678 are la, xi, and duo. What a coincidence, they are exactly the same as your name," Ahs said.
"What does this prove? It's just a coincidence." Lacido's eyes changed, but he still said the same.
"Let me ask, in your delivery work, do you give one bottle of milk a day to people who order milk?" Ahs asked.
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"I would like to ask, Miss Kelly from 9102 Eddos Street, has she also ordered a milk bar?"
"...Ordered."
"And she didn't unsubscribe. I'm right." Ahes said. "Don't try to lie to me. If you want to unsubscribe, you need to call the milk company to unsubscribe. I have checked their records.
Kelly did not unsubscribe."
"So what?"
"We haven't had time to talk about Miss Kelly's death so far. May I ask, why did you stop sending milk to her after Miss Kelly died, no, after Miss Kelly moved away from home?"
There were layers of sweat on Lassido's forehead, and he was holding his pants tightly with both hands.
"It seems that you are not killing people randomly, Jack the Ripper. You should have been targeting Kelly for a long time, but you have never made a move. After Kelly moved away, you decided to find an opportunity to go to the hotel to give her to her."
Kill him." Ahes leaned back slightly and said, "What a pity. Maybe you have committed so many crimes and the police still have no clue, which makes you a little arrogant. You even forgot to send milk."
"This, this doesn't prove anything..."
"We have shown your photo to the front desk staff of the hotel where Miss Kelly was killed. On the day Miss Kelly was killed, you did go to the hotel and only rented the room for less than one night before canceling the reservation.
." Ahes said, "You had sufficient time to commit the crime, and you also tried to fabricate an alibi. You could not explain why Kelly left your name and why you stopped delivering milk after Kelly died. This is enough to prove
, you are the murderer."
.........
Afterwards, Lacido admitted that he was Jack the Ripper. As for his motivation, it was purely happiness. He felt that killing women was much happier than violating them.
"You are really amazing. Not only did you catch Jack the Ripper, you also caught a gun rapist." Moulton handed over a cigarette and said, the gun rapist was Lu Men.
"What a pity, those women he killed." Ahs sighed.
"In short, justice will prevail." As he said this, Moulton stretched out his fist. Ahes saw this and bumped his fist with him.
For a moment, Ahes' vision suddenly went dark. When he opened his eyes again, he was standing in the underground library.
"The trial was a success." Ahs murmured.
[The Book of Mist] floated in front of his eyes, Ahes stretched out his hand, and with a burst of light, the Book of Mist disappeared in front of his eyes.
