Chapter 962: Arrogance

Thinking of the bloody battle in the forest that saved Zhu Xueyan, Lin Yiqing's brows couldn't help frowning. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In his fighting career, it was a rare battle.

Lin Yiqing had always been impressed by the four Heaven and Earth Society masters in that vicious battle, but what surprised him was that there might be a guy like them lurking in London City now.

And the other side also has quite terrible weapons.

Since Lin Yiqing made a new air gun according to the "Deadly Three Strings" DIY captured in that vicious battle, the ninjas were very interested, so Lin Yiqing handed over the drawings to the Shipmaster Gun Gun Institute and made a batch of air gun equipment for the ninjas, but the ninjas found that although the power of the air gun is very large, no less than that of the musket, and the sound is very small when shooting, it can be said that there are many advantages, but the defects are also very obvious: the volume is too large, it is inconvenient to carry, the range is also relatively close, and it is very troublesome to reload and inflate after shooting. In Lin Yiqing's ninja army, the air gun is only used as a special equipment in the required operation.

But now that this murderous maniac in the city of London has such a weapon, the threat he brings should indeed be taken seriously.

"Xingyue, you arrange a few people to investigate without affecting the security work and see if you can find this person."

"Yes, my lord."

"If you find this person, don't alarm him first, and don't arrest him, see if you can find out who is behind the scenes, and what their purpose is. I don't think he came to the city of London for no reason to commit such a murder, he must have a plan. ”

"My subordinates understand."

"In two days' time, I'm going to visit Armstrong and its major shipyards to tell everyone to be vigilant."

"Yes."

"Inform Rothchild Bank to pay attention as well."

"Yes."

"By the way, what is the name of the detective you said found the bullet marks of the gun?"

"His name is Sallock? Holmes, a private investigator, is said to have helped the Metropolitan Police solve many difficult cases, so this time the Metropolitan Police asked him to come out again, and he also has an assistant, Dr. Watson, and Merrill, a survivor of a recent case, is his wife. ”

"What? It's also too ...... Well, it's a coincidence, you can help me make an appointment with him when you have time, I want to meet these two people. ”

"Yes."

Just two days after the murder, a letter was received at the headquarters of The Times. The letter was signed on June 25, and the postmark on the envelope indicates that it was from a post office in London's East End.

"To the dear boss:"

"The police said they were going to arrest me, but they didn't know who I was. When I heard that they were targeting their targets, I wanted to laugh. It's a big joke to say that the person wearing the cloak is the murderer. ”

"I hate women. I won't stop killing them until my neck is put on a rope. My murder methods are amazing! The woman I killed didn't even have a chance to shout for help, so I killed her! If the police have the ability, come and arrest me! I am a murderer for the sake of killing, and I will continue to kill, and you will soon hear interesting things about me. ”

"Red blood is best used to write about what I've done before, so I put red blood in a ginger ale bottle. But the blood is as sticky as kraft glue, and it is very difficult to use. It's more convenient to write in red ink. Hahaha! ”

"I'll give you the ears of the next woman I killed, to the policemen. This letter is a preview of my next action, so stay tuned! My knives are very sharp and I take action at the first opportunity. ”

"Goodbye! Yours sincerely, your dear 'Gal the Anatomist'. ”

"Just let me use that nickname! I'm sorry, but I put the letter in the mailbox with my red ink-stained hand. However, some people say that I am a doctor, and I think it is ridiculous. ”

This is where the name "Gal the Anatomist" first appears.

The newspaper that received the letter initially thought it was a prank letter and wanted to laugh it off, but out of a cautious mind, it was later forwarded to Scotland Yard, but the newspaper did not take the matter seriously. And Scotland Yard did not pay much attention to the letter.

However, after several more killings and two more women were killed, the letter finally gained traction and was re-examined.

The July 1 issue of The Nova newspaper, while reporting on the recent killings, picked up the letter in its entirety, attracting attention and the public began to refer to the terrible murderer as "Gal the Anatomist." As if to continue the news event, Gal sent a letter to the "United News Agency" again.

"I'm not telling my boss, because whether he likes it or not, I'm going to hear tomorrow about what I'm doing as little Gal as a little Gal. This time it's a double killing! The first guy was a bit of a nuisance, so he couldn't do what I thought he would, and he didn't cut off the ear I said I was going to give to the policeman. Thank you for keeping the previous letter for me before I finish this work. Gal the Anatomist. ”

In the second letter, the killer mentions the previous letter, so it is highly likely that the two letters came from the same person. Strangely, however, the handwriting of the two letters is not the same. Scotland Yard copied the two letters and made them into notices, hoping that anyone who recognized the handwriting of the letters would report them to the police, and the matter had come to such an extent that the name "Gal the Anatomist" set the tone.

However, the letter signed by Gal does not end there. The future development of this matter is completely beyond the imagination of a mediocre mystery writer.

On July 16, Gal sent a third message to the home of Sheriff Girrod of the Synagogue Police District. This time it was not an envelope, but a small package. In addition to the letters, there was also a piece of meat inside the package.

The contents of the letter in the package are as follows:

"Letter from Hell, to Mr. Girrod:"

"Give you half of the kidney you stole from some woman. This is specially for you to cut the kidneys. The remaining half of the kidney, I've already fried and eaten. It tastes pretty good, and in a little while I'll be served the scalpel that I used to cut the kidney. Stay tuned! ”

"If you have the ability, come and arrest me! Mr. Girod. ”

Feeling uneasy and confused, Sergeant Giron sent what he had received to the Metropolitan Police Department, where a forensic examination determined that the piece of meat was indeed part of a human kidney.

In order to make a more precise examination, the panicked police sent the piece of meat to the pathology department of the London hospital, where the supervisor, Dr. Herbert, was asked to do further testing. Dr. Herbert proved that it was a piece of kidney meat that was a regular member of gin, had alcoholism, and had Bright's disease (glomerulonephritis).

Naturally, this piece of kidney meat is thought to be from the left kidney that was taken from the Carlodi? Vincent's body. Carlodi? Vincent had Bright's disease and also had alcoholism. However, her body had already been buried in the municipal cemetery, and no one in the Scotland Yard prosecutor at that time had taken the Carlody ? Vincent's body was exhumed for confirmation, so was it really Carlodi who was sent to Giron's house? Vincent's kidney slices have not been clearly confirmed.

After the results were announced, the next person to receive the letter signed by Gal became Dr. Herbert.

"Hi boss. Let's get straight to the point! That's the kidney on the left. I almost did the same thing near your hospital when I stabbed a knife into the throat of a lovely woman, and because of the police, the game fell through. I'll have my next event soon, though. I'll send you something else when the time comes. Gal the Anatomist. ”

"Hey, have you ever seen a demon? Use a microscope and a scalpel! Check your kidneys! Let's move the slide of the microscope! ”

Because the letter is accompanied by this quatrain, reading the contents of the letter in the newspaper will only give the impression that the letter is a prank. Scotland Yard, the borough police stations, and the newspapers, did receive many hoax letters in the name of Gal. Most letters begin with the word "boss", and American English, which is not well spoken in British society, is often modeled after the first letter.

Anonymous letters are increasingly appearing in the form of short poems, which are gradually becoming popular.

Because the name "Gal the Anatomist" appeared on the first letter was so popular, it was also used in later counterfeits, and the name was determined.

In the end, the first three letters, were they really sent by the murderer? Although this is important, it is a pity that the police have not been able to deduce the identity of the murderer. I don't know if it was to resist the fear caused by this terrible bloody event, and the people of London gradually developed the psychology of looking at this event in a joking mood. In this trend, there is one person who has the misfortune of being clownized. This man is the chief Jason of Scotland Yard.

After the pursuit of the dissecter Gal had not been successful, Chief Jason, who was in a state of flux, went to the scene of the murder and ordered his men to erase the graffiti on the walls, which was considered to be significant evidence, because it was insulting to the Jews and could easily lead to ethnic strife, especially at a time when the persecution of Jews in Russia had led many Jews from Russia into exile to London, and he also carried out an unofficial search with reconnaissance dogs.

Because newspapers reported that scout dogs with a keen sense of smell should be used to track down the whereabouts of the murderer, Chief Jason tried to conduct such an experiment.

The experiment, which took place on August 6 in Hyde Park, involved two dogs sniffing the simulated killer and then tracking them for a mile or so, with good results.

However, another experiment in Hyde Park that night did not go so well. Chief Jason himself plays the role of the murderer, but the dog finds someone else. The dog's sense of smell is supposed to be very keen, so he had to explain this failure by citing bad weather.

Because experiments sometimes succeed and sometimes fail, Jason is also very confused, and he doesn't know whether to use this method to find the murderer. So he conducted another experiment in London's Tuting district. The results of this test are as reported in the Times on August 19.

"Elvis? Chief Jason's scout dog got lost yesterday while conducting an experiment to hunt down the killer. If anyone sees the dog, please contact Scotland Yard immediately. ”

The dog got lost in the fog. And Jason's chief was reported like this: "Jason, who has nothing to do, has to rely on dogs." To know who the murderer is, go ask the dog! ”

Mr. Jason was also very disgusted by the media's long-winded and mean words, so he submitted an article to "Problem Magazine" and published a criticism of the media: "On the other side of the strait, the police are the rulers of order, and the media will not comment on the activities of the police. ”

However, the current chief is not suitable for publishing articles of this kind in magazines. His actions were discussed in Parliament, and the Ministry of the Interior issued an official condemnation of his words and deeds.

As a result, Mr. Jason submitted his resignation, which was accepted. At this point, Chief Jason can be said to have exhausted his bow and had no choice but to resign as chief on September 9. Chief Jason's departure, in anyone's eyes, can be said to be a declaration of surrender to him raising the white flag for Gal.

Ironically, on the very day Jason left, Gal the Anatomist reappeared and created a big case that caused a sensation in the world.

O'Connor didn't know what was wrong with him.

He felt as if he had gone mad.

Ever since the Russian "doctor" injected him with strange things, he found himself changing.

I became dreamy.

I had a dream like that, and it was a day when I had taken opium and slept deeply.

He always dreamed of being in an unknown and distant place - like the end of the world.

The wind was whistling in my ears, and my earlobes were blown by the wind. As soon as I walked, my shoes made a clicking sound on the dry ground. The sound seemed to come from next to the ear, loud enough to shake the skull.

He kept going. It's so desolate, except for a few buildings at the corner of the crossroads, the rest of the place is a desert as far as the eye can see. On the undulating desert like a maiden, the sun shines through the cracks in the clouds.

Come to think of it! He is looking for his love. The woman he had loved so much for a long time. For her, he is willing to do anything. When she was around, he would lift his spirits, and even if he didn't like it, he would do it.

She is a woman with a very strange personality, who does not take trouble with others as a thing, and arrogantly takes pleasure in it.

When it comes to appointments, she is always late. However, it's always better to be late than never, so she doesn't mind having to wait an hour or two at all, and when someone arrives, she asks him to buy her something.

Whether it was clothes, shoes or purse, he was willing to buy it for her. Even if you live in a simple attic, you can live a life with only water and bread. As long as he can buy something for her and live with her smoothly, he is satisfied. She just has such a great charm, as if she were a work of art in the Louvre, with a pair of beautiful long legs that are perfect for short skirts, blond hair, fair skin, and wherever she goes, the men around her will be attracted to her, unable to take their eyes off her. She is his pride, there is not a day that he is not proud of her, she should be his everything. As for which part of him is everything? That's right, everything about his pride.

However, she suddenly disappeared from his presence. It was as if she had been melted by the strong sunlight, and suddenly she was gone.

He was devastated and kept looking around for her. His pride had vanished from the moment she was gone.

She moved. In order to find her, he came to the streets of this desert.

Soon, he finally found a trail of blood on the dry ground that glowed white. It's her blood. He followed the trail of blood, on the yellow ground that had become as hard as stone.

A building appeared in front of him. Although the roof is huge like an arena, the building is new, and it looks like a new hospital.

It looks like a front gate with 39 steps cut into stone. Behind the glass door is a large room like a football field, covered with white tiles, and it looks like an operating room. There are several tables in the room that resemble an operating table, and there are many white buckets on the tables.

A man in a white robe stood in the middle of the room. He wears pink rubber gloves on his hands and a yellow mask on his face.

"Gal? O'Connor, welcome here. The man in the white robe called him by name and continued, "Are you here looking for a woman?" ”

He didn't answer yes or no. Because how others interpret their actions is someone else's business, and it has nothing to do with him. He looked up at the other in a daze.

"Gal? O'Connor, I understand your feelings. But that woman is a bad woman; It's a very unsuitable woman for you. ”

The guy said like a college professor giving a lecture to a student. It suddenly occurred to him that the so-called "father" might be the kind of man of his master, the one who could talk like that!

"The woman is gone." The man in white with the mask said, "She will never make you, or any other man, miserable again." ”

The man's voice echoed through the empty space.

"Now he'll let you see her! Do you know what her essence is? The man said, pretending to pick up the white bucket on the operating table next to him and show him the contents of the bucket.

"Look! That's the best part of her body. This is her 'woman'. The man let go of his hand, and her organs snapped and fell on the white tiles.

He felt his whole body tremble, staring at the two pieces of dry meat, like a cockscomb.

He had kissed them and been crazy about them.

"This is the woman. Do you understand that? ”

He nodded. Somehow, the feeling of euphoria came up in waves, and that intense feeling of excitement was very close to the pleasure of having sex. With a strong sense of joy, he wanted to laugh. (To be continued.) )
