Chapter 364 Father and Son
What? The first victim, Honey Charles, was Jack the Ripper's biological mother?
Everyone showed a shocked expression. This murderer actually killed his mother?
Moroboshi Hideki showed an expression of sudden enlightenment: "So that's it, Jack the Ripper killed Honey Charles to avenge being abandoned? But that's not right, weren't there several more victims after that? They can't be Jack the Ripper's mother too, right?"
Conan sighed, "Initially, it was for revenge, but... Professor Moriarty's killer education, coupled with Jack the Ripper's own psychological defects, eventually turned him into a perverted murderer."
How can a person who was abandoned by his own mother and taught by a criminal mentor to become a killer be normal? It is better to say that Jack the Ripper has only killed four people so far, which is relatively light.
Conan's tone suddenly became heavy as he said, "But Jack the Ripper might have still had a glimmer of hope in his heart that his mother still remembered him, otherwise he wouldn't have worn those rings.
Unfortunately... Perhaps when he saw Honey Charles, she not only had no guilt, but had already forgotten him. So, in extreme anger, Jack the Ripper killed her. "
"And if someone wears a ring of the same size from childhood, what will happen to his finger? That finger will become thinner than the other fingers!"
"That is to say, the real Jack the Ripper is you!"
Following these words, Conan suddenly raised his hand and pointed to the corner of the carriage.
There was a woman sitting there, with a long skirt dragging on the ground and her hair tied behind her head. She sat dignifiedly on a chair and looked very beautiful at first glance.
Ran Mouri, who had been preparing, was about to rush over immediately. However, when she looked in the direction of Conan's hand, she saw that it was a very beautiful woman and was stunned.
She subconsciously retorted: "But, that's a woman! Jack the Ripper was obviously a man..."
Before she could finish her words, Mao Lilan suddenly closed her mouth.
If you think about it, from the beginning to now, they have never confirmed the gender of Jack the Ripper, and Professor Moriarty, the only one who knows, has never told them.
Jack the Ripper, whose identity was revealed, looked over here and stood up calmly.
Jack the Ripper slowly raised his hand and opened it, and everyone immediately saw the exceptionally slender finger, which was exactly consistent with Conan's previous reasoning, and they immediately showed expressions of horror.
Jack the Ripper silently grasped his collar, exerted force with both hands, and tore open his skirt with a "hiss", revealing the killer-like tights underneath. At the same time, he wiped his mouth with the back of his hand to remove the lipstick on it.
Jack the Ripper revealed his identity through his actions, and the passengers nearby immediately fled in panic.
"Leave it to me!"
With a loud shout, Mao Lilan pushed hard on her feet and rushed towards Jack the Ripper like an arrow - now, the reasoning about Jack the Ripper's identity has been completed by Yuya and Conan. There is no escape route on a high-speed train, just like a secret room.
Next, you just need to catch Jack the Ripper, the final boss of this game, and you can pass the level successfully!
Now it's my turn!
Jack the Ripper did not panic at all when facing the aggressive Mao Lilan. He calmly took out two smoke bombs and threw them to the ground.
Bang! The thick smoke exploded instantly, filling the small carriage in the blink of an eye.
Mao Lilan had no time to brake and was immediately engulfed by the smoke.
"Ran!" Conan shouted anxiously, but got no response.
"Yuya?!" Conan quickly asked his childhood friend for help, but Yuya was silent.
Conan's heart sank.
"The one wearing glasses!" Moroboshi Hideki's voice rang out, and Conan shouted quickly, "Quick, open the window and let the smoke go!"
Soon, the windows of the carriage were opened, and wind blew in from the windows, quickly dispersing the smoke inside.
Without the smoke blocking his vision, Conan could immediately see the surrounding scene clearly, and his heart sank.
However, in just ten seconds, the people who were packed in the carriage disappeared.
Not only the passengers, including Jack the Ripper, Mao Lilan, but even Yuya disappeared.
He and Hideki Moroboshi were the only ones left in the carriage.
Two fake children stood in the carriage, observing the surrounding situation in a daze.
···
In the control room, after hearing Conan successfully uncovered the identity of Jack the Ripper, Kudo Yusaku breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at the others, and said: "Okay, now let's find out the murderer who killed Kenmura."
Inspector Megure looked at him in surprise: "What, you already know who the murderer is?"
Thomas Sindora, who had been standing in front of the screen and observing the game situation, was shocked.
Kudo Yusaku said calmly: "The problem in this case is how the murderer prepared the murder weapon."
“There is a metal detector at the entrance of the venue, so there is no way to bring in sharp and dangerous objects.
In this way, it can be concluded that the murderer could not have brought the murder weapon into the scene from outside. Then there is only one possibility left - the murder weapon was hidden in the venue beforehand! "
Maori Kogoro asked: "But where can such a thing be placed?"
Kudo Yusaku glanced at Sintra's back and said, "There are several decorative bronze statues in the center of the venue, and one of them holds a short sword."
Thomas Sindola, who had his back to the crowd, suddenly changed his expression.
Inspector Megure recalled that he did see some bronze statues when he came here, but he was a little puzzled and asked, "But there are so many people in the venue, and I remember that the bronze statues were placed in the middle of the pool. It would be too conspicuous to run in and insert and remove the murder weapon, right?"
"Of course," Kudo Yusaku explained, "Inspector, you came late and you may not know that when we introduced Cocoon, the lights in the venue were turned off. There was only light on the stage, and it lasted about 7 or 8 minutes."
Kudo Yusaku looked at Thomas Sindorah's back, his eyes gradually sharpening: "The murderer had calculated the time long ago and killed people during the lights-out period. The dagger on the bronze statue can just solve the problem of preparing the murder weapon.
As long as you prepare a fake knife in advance, no one will notice that something is missing, and then you can find an opportunity to replace it and successfully hide the murder weapon."
As if to cater to Kudo Yusaku's reasoning, the door of the control room was pushed open, Takagi Wataru ran in quickly and saluted Inspector Megure.
"Inspector, we tested the dagger as requested by Mr. Kudo, and we did find traces of Kenmura's blood on it. We also found fingerprints that match those of President Sindora!"
Everyone looked at Thomas Sindorah in shock.
Thomas Sindorah's heart tightened, but he was a man who had experienced many ups and downs after all. He turned around calmly and sneered, "What can my fingerprints prove? Those statues were originally moved from my home. Isn't it normal to have my fingerprints on them?"
"As for the bloodstains, they must have been left there by the murderer to frame me. I have encountered many such incidents, but this time the enemy was particularly ingenious and actually wanted to frame me as a murderer."
This sophistry seemed to make sense at first glance, and everyone looked at Kudo Yusaku again, expecting what kind of evidence or clues he would give.
