Jack the Ripper died, and this incident didn't make much of a splash in the City of Fog, as no one even noticed that he was dead, killed on the grass in his own home, except for his children and a limited number of people.

When he died, with a bitter smile on his face, there was no such gentleness as he has always been, only bitterness, facing his final farewell to this world.

He was a sinner, and there was no doubt that he would take money for the lives of others, and even allow him to torture the dead and make them face death in the most miserable way just by paying the money.

But Chu didn't know why, and when she killed him, she was complicated.

Maybe it was because Jack asked her something at the end, and she couldn't find the answer.

What is his sin, and what is his sin?

Isn't the capital of fog operating on this rule, and isn't human society running on this rule?

The strong bully the weak, and the weak bully the weaker.

It's just that everyone in the City of Fog is blinded by the fog, so they are even more unscrupulous. Wouldn't it be a sin if it was restrained?

And if murder is a sin, shouldn't you be the most hateful evil person in the first place?

Also, it's because she's the worst of the wicked people that she's chosen as a messenger, isn't it?

This city is a city of sin, and she is the worst of all.

······

The next day, the police station in the City of Fog welcomed its first informants.

They were a group of children, the older holding the younger one in the hall of the police station, and each one of them didn't have much on their faces.

At first she remembered the first time she saw these children, and there was hope in the eyes of each of them, which was something that the fog did not have.

And now, they had become like the rest of the people in the City of Mist, their eyes darkened.

The case that these kids reported was a homicide, their father was killed, by that murderer in the City of Fog, and they wanted the police to be able to catch it and kill it.

When Lawrence took over the case, his expression was very complicated, he glanced at Chu beside him, and understood why she left alone yesterday.

As a police officer, Lawrence took on the case, but he knew in his heart that there would be no progress in the case.

These children have to face only the most helpless results.

The kids left, they were sensible and didn't bother Lawrence and Hatsu a bit.

In fact, they can cry, they can be angry, they can be resentful, and even then no one will blame them, but they are too sensible. Even the youngest child didn't cry, but there were tears in the corners of his eyes.

They silently leaned close to each other, as if clutching their last bit of hope, and then left silently.

It's not like Jack has nothing left for them, and the wealth he leaves behind is more than enough for them to continue living, but they shouldn't want that.

······

Over the next few days, Lawrence often took Chu to Jack's house to investigate in the name of collecting clues.

The children did not refuse, and sometimes, they would keep the two of them for dinner, and there was a little girl named Jennifer who was very good at cooking, and I heard that Jack himself taught her.

Jack's body was buried in the cemetery, and the family seemed to be at peace, but they had changed.

The mischievous Ender no longer plays, Claude locks himself in his study almost every day, Joseph's drawings become dark and scribbled, and Emma's piano sound becomes hollow.

It must have been the sixth day, and Lawrence handed a stack of papers to Hatsu.

"The forces behind Jack have been found out, let's clean up this city. ”

As a police officer, his business ability is still very secure, and according to the limited clues left by Jack's family, he has almost found out most of the forces underground in the fog capital.

In the same way, he didn't sleep for days and nights, maybe because of the guilt he felt about the children, or maybe he just wanted to vent the pent-up emotions in his heart.

Anyway, the task of cleaning up the city was given to Hatsu, and Lawrence returned home, collapsed on the couch and fell asleep.

He stood beside Lawrence, who was asleep, for a while, carried the sloppy middle-aged man to the bed, covered him with the quilt, and then turned around and went out the door.

She'll clean up the city.

In the dark night, the black mist drifted away, and the cold moonlight hung high in the air, exuding a hazy pale white glow.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang······"

The silence of the night was broken by the intense gunfire, which was incessant on the night.

"Concentrate fire, concentrate fire!"

A group of guards with rifles in their hands fired round after round, and the flames from the muzzles of the guns illuminated what they were shooting.

It was a pure black humanoid, and every part of its body was shrouded in black, making it look unknown and terrifying.

It was by no means human, and the guards who shot it understood this, as they had seen their own bullets into the humanoid body, but the other party had no reaction.

The black figure walked towards them, and the guards had to retreat and retreat until the figure came in front of them, and there was no way back for them.

"Ahh "One of the guards frantically fired at the figure, his face contorted, and he pushed bullets into the chamber again and again.

But it was only a futile resistance, and the screams mingled with the sound of gunshots, and a few seconds later, a black figure walked slowly through the bloodstained corridor.

Hatsu walked down the hallway to a door at the end of the hallway, and the person she was going to kill tonight was one of Jack's main merchant. His name is Snyter, and he is also one of the main managers who controls many black market transactions.

Putting his hand on the doorknob, he pushed the door open and walked in.

In the room, Snyter, with his back to the door, turned.

His face remained calm and cold, even in the midst of his current situation.

He looked at Chu Fu and raised his eyes, turned his back and said.

"When Jack died, I thought you'd come back to me one day, but I didn't expect it to be so soon. ”

Chu didn't reply, just walked slowly towards Snyth, the evil in his hand condensed into a knife.

"You're from Lawrence, aren't you?" Snaith said.

This made Chu pause in his footsteps.

Snaith looked at Chu and already had the answer in his heart, and said lightly.

"That's my guess, if you're not Lawrence, you're the one who does things for him. Because he looks like a man who wants to change the city. ”

Chu still didn't speak, she continued to walk towards Snet, the knife in her hand raised.

Snaith grinned and stood in place.

"He won't succeed, maybe he can change the rules, but the essence of the city won't change, because it's human nature that is shown here. ”

When the fog obscures people's eyes and makes them invisible to each other, the good will still be the good, and only the evil will reveal his true colors.

The sins of the City of Fog are just the nature of people who have been exposed.

"Boom!"

The blade in Hatsu's hand slashed in front of Snyter, blood splattering and spilling onto the empty wall.
