The reason why Alexis pays attention to "Parrot" Polly is actually very simple -

Because the other party's trick of putting a bugging device in his hand is really too slippery!

Ever since she discovered the bugging device placed by the other party with the help of the Irish leprechaun's abilities, Charlotte asked Alexis to be careful of the paparazzi.

For Miss Valkyrie, this is not a difficult task.

After all, although she has a body, her essence is still a ghost. The ability to release a trace of soul attached to the other party's body is still there.

Although she can't directly feel the other person's every move, as long as Alexis diverts her attention, she can easily locate the other party with the help of Valkyrie's own fast movement ability.

- At that time, she used this method to find out that the other party had infiltrated the "Hogwarts" castle.

Therefore, it is normal for her to despise the "parrot" Polly.

However, Alexis didn't expect that the "parrot" Polly, who she despised, would then shine in the case report imitating "Jack the Ripper".

The other party even used his skillful eavesdropping technology to overhear some information inside the police.

Alexis learned of this information through irregular surveillance, so she told Charlotte that she knew of a "person who has a lot of information about the case."

- Talking about the "parrot" Polly.

However, Charlotte did not use Alexis's special channel.

He just wandered around the scene of the crime and found an anomaly-

That's not to say that Charlotte has any ability to see things.

After all, his talent points are on mages and trickster masters, and on the detective side, he doesn't have much to order.

The reason for the anomaly will be discovered only because he met a person he had met before at the scene of the crime.

— or ghosts.

"Sure enough, I've come here to check it out, you guys. ”

Hearing the other party greet her in Old English, Charlotte shrugged her shoulders,

"I didn't expect to meet you here, Lord Protector!"

"Oliver, you can call me. ”

“...... Alright!"

When she saw the oldest and most powerful headless horseman in Britain slowly emerging from the ground, Charlotte was ready for battle in an instant.

Unexpectedly, Cromwell who appeared this time was very friendly.

- He even made Charlotte call him by his first name.

- Oliver Cromwell, his full name.

This was unexpected by Charlotte.

According to his guess, Cromwell would have turned against him in the first place, more because he wanted to resurrect Alexis, so he clashed with the law of death represented by Cromwell.

Now, without the conflict of laws, the other party should not take the initiative to find trouble for himself, but it is so friendly-

"Nothing to do!"

Charlotte's heart was full of alarm bells.

And Alexis, who was following Charlotte, was a little trembling.

Miss Valkyrie leaned behind Charlotte with a little nervousness.

No way, when she was resurrected, Cromwell left a deep impression on her.

Even though she had turned into a divine ghost with a name and a surname at this time, she still had a large psychological shadow when facing this ancient headless horseman.

In addition, they were in a dark and narrow uninhabited alley at this time.

Ahead, a cordon that read "Keep out" was barried, and there was still a trail of dried blood, as well as a white circle that had been left by the police forensic officer to identify the location of the body.

"The body was transported the same day!"

Alexis whispered behind Charlotte,

"Based on what I've gotten from Polly the Parrot, it seems that there are still some things that the police haven't clarified, so they plan to revisit the scene later, so—"

Miss Valkyrie shrugged as she looked at the yellow cordon in front of her.

Charlotte didn't answer Alexis's words, he still looked at Cromwell,

"Oliver, can you tell us why you're here?"

"Like you, I guess. ”

Cromwell gestured to the dry bloodstain on the ground.

"So, it's really about ghosts!?"

"Yes!"

Cromwell confirmed Charlotte's speculation,

"It's Jack the Ripper!"

"The real Jack the Ripper!?"

Charlotte immediately understood what the other party meant,

"So, it's not a copycat, it's the work of Jack the Ripper!? What the hell is this guy!?

"It's Jack the Ripper!"

“...... I see!"

Charlotte was stunned for a moment, then reacted,

"So, it's not that Jack the Ripper was turned into a goblin, it's that he became a goblin?"

"Yes. ”

......

After a conversation with Cromwell, Charlotte finally roughly understood the ins and outs of the matter -

It turns out that the reason why Jack the Ripper killed six women in succession in the East End of London was not an antisocial personality or revenge against society, but because he was actually an evil warlock who was proficient in dark ritual spells.

- He killed the six women for a Black Messiah sacrifice.

This dark ritual caused it to merge with the demons left over from even more ancient times, and thus became a half-ghost.

In the following 100 years, the mystification of this series of cases by writers and artists, as well as the continuous imitation of subsequent serial killers, gave him stronger power.

Now, just as "Jack the Ripper" has become synonymous with serial killers, he has indeed become the dark rule of serial killers -

Although you can't see or touch it, the phrase "every serial killer has a ripper jack living in their heart" is more than just a description.

- He can draw strength from the social panic caused by the serial killers, just as he can draw faith from the hearts of the serial killers.

"In a way, he's not just a goblin, he's half a dark god!"

Charlotte muttered to herself, and then he looked at Cromwell,

"But, Oliver, according to you, Jack the Ripper doesn't need to commit the crime himself, does he?

"He did it with his own hands, it should be. ”

Cromwell replied in the affirmative.

After speaking, he used his mana to form a six-pointed star on the ground, and then pointed to the center and said,

"Whitechapel in London's East End in 1888, here it is! and these places—"

And he pointed to the six horns of the six-pointed star.

"Where Jack the Ripper really committed the murder, at that time!"

"That's what happened!"

Charlotte's pupils shrank sharply,

"So, the dark sacrifice you said Jack the Ripper used in the first place turned out to be this kind of spell!?"

"What spell!?"

Alexis behind Charlotte asked.

From just now, Miss Valkyrie had been a little cloudy and foggy.

Now, the curiosity in her heart finally overcame her fear of Cromwell.

However, the chill in Charlotte's voice made her realize that something seemed to be something to be afraid of-

"Extract the leyline!"

Charlotte gritted her teeth.
