Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 544
When the day came, in that damp cheap rented room, Lin Sanjiu moved a chair and put it by the window, staring at the pedestrians on the road for a while.

Near Whitechapel in the East End of London is a gathering place for many impoverished immigrants, most of whom are from Russia or Eastern Europe, so there are always faces of Caucasians coming and going on the street.But occasionally there are some mixed-race people, people can't tell where they are from - if the pair of Tudou brothers put on suitable clothes and walk on the street, Lin Sanjiu might really not be able to tell whether they are players or locals.

It is not difficult to change a player's clothes.

This dungeon must have existed for more than a day or two, and it is absolutely impossible for them to be the first batch of players to enter.If there was an evolutionary who had an accident here before, it would not be difficult for someone to take off his clothes.

The young man also fully stated his guess to Lin Sanjiu: "...that brother said that he was sleeping at home, who can prove it? I think it is very likely that my brother is Jack the Ripper, but it is not easy to kill people with us. So my younger brother walked with us, taking the opportunity to create chaos and distract us, and then my elder brother attacked Anne from the other side... Historically, some people have indeed suspected that Jack the Ripper had an accomplice!"

His eyes sparkled when he said this.

Regardless of whether the young man's speculation is reasonable or why he is so fascinated by Jack the Ripper, he is indeed right in one point: in the context of London, England in the nineteenth century, an East Asian man—specifically, wearing a A denim jacket, a Chinese with a Cantonese accent—he must be an outsider just like Lin Sanjiu.

Then the next question is the penny in my hand...

Lin Sanjiu looked at the copper plate she was holding between her fingers. The slightly concave side of the coin was stained with a white edge under the skylight outside the window.It's thin and not very heavy, and people with small hands may not even be able to throw it very far——

Can it be used to break a street lamp?

Provided the ability is not sealed, this is of course no problem.But Lin Sanjiu tried it in private, and unexpectedly broke a street lamp—because she found that her physical fitness was in a very delicate stage: although the evolutionary ability could not be used, the effect of increasing physical fitness was still there Some were left behind, and at this moment, her strength was roughly equivalent to that of a naturally strong man.

In particular, the street lamps in the 19th century were also poorly made and fragile. In addition, the street lamp was so close. If there were tools such as slingshots, it would not be a problem...

Thinking of this, Lin Sanjiu scratched his hair impatiently, and simply threw away the mess.

Anyway, after Jack the Ripper has killed five people, the game will end anyway, so what if the mystery is not solved?The big deal is that she just needs to be more careful in front of Brother Tudou.

The daytime in the game actually only lasts about 10 minutes; when she pushed the chair and stood up, it was already night outside and the lights were getting brighter.Next, there will be a dark night that will last for about four or five hours-from this point, it can also be seen that a large part of the plot in the game must take place at night.

As soon as she stood up, the door of this narrow rented room was pushed open.The young man walked in and glanced at her. Since he was still holding two pieces of bread in his arms, he turned around and kicked the door shut, asking, "Do you want something to eat?"

He still went out "in the morning", but he only bought two loaves of bread, and it was already dark.

Lin Sanjiu glanced at the two pieces of black and hard bread, and shook his head without appetite.

The young man didn't mind, he tore a piece into his mouth, and asked vaguely, "What about the two brothers?"

After the initial panic subsided, he began to have a great interest in Brother Tudou—that attitude could almost be called enthusiasm.

"Go... to find a prostitute." Lin Sanjiu said with a bit of reluctance, expressionless.She couldn't even explain a word beyond this sentence.

Maybe it's because he discovered his identity as a tavern owner, which is already very attractive to the prostitutes in the slums; Brother Tudou has been wandering the streets since last night, teasing every woman they like , From time to time, he would disappear into the corner of the street with a young prostitute, and he would not come back for a long time.During the day and night in the game, they only came back once, and it was still for change.

Although the old gatekeeper said that he could do anything, Lin Sanjiu couldn't help being surprised.

When the young man heard her words, an expression of "Look, what did I say" appeared on his face—he sat down in the chair farthest from Lin Sanjiu, lowered his head, and chewed He was eating bread, so that people could only see the top of his black head; while chewing, amidst the sound of saliva, he suddenly laughed softly.

"What are you laughing at?" Lin Sanjiu didn't like his timidity and surprise from time to time.To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that Jack the Ripper couldn't possibly be East Asian, she would think that this young man was more like a murderer.

"No...it's nothing." He raised his eyelids, flinched, and said, "I... I just thought, if one of them is indeed Jack the Ripper and the other is an accomplice... That was so exciting."

The two of them didn't light the lights at this time, and the darkness in the room made people feel heavy when they saw it.In the gloomy living room, listening to him describe a serial killer with such a slightly trembling voice was really not a pleasant thing—Lin Sanjiu said nothing, only found a few candles and lit them .

Electric lights should have come out by this period, but the Dalton brothers' home had not yet been equipped with such modern things.The orange-red firelight could only illuminate a small area, and the light and shadow danced in the living room, making it even more faintly unreal.

Lin Sanjiu didn't look at the young man in the chair, but leaned against the window, looking at all kinds of people on the street outside.

"...I think it's better for us to keep up with those two brothers." The young man rambled on a lot, and it wasn't until he said this that he caught Lin Sanjiu's attention: "If One of the prostitutes they found died, and it was the method of disembowelling, digging out the uterus and intestines, so one of them must be Jack the Ripper!"

"If they are really just evolutionaries who come to have fun, it's hard to ensure that they won't be discovered."

"However, you have to go and have a look." The young man lowered his head and bit his fingertips for a while, as if pleading.

However, he did not get a response from Lin Sanjiu.As soon as the young man looked up, he found Lin Sanjiu was leaning tightly against the window, squinting his eyes and looking out—I don't know what she saw. Said: "Come here!"

"What's the matter?" He swallowed, approached in small steps, and cast his gaze away.

In this game, it seems that it will rain only at night.The thin rain was floating in the sky, and the lights on the small road in the distance were all dyed into halos by the rain; in this blurred light, it was naturally difficult to distinguish people. The young man also squinted his eyes, looked carefully for a few seconds, and suddenly turned pale: "Eh, eh? No, can't you?"

The two looked at each other, and immediately after, Lin Sanjiu and him rushed out the door at the same time.

When they stepped on the stagnant water and rushed all the way into the small road, the prostitutes who were talking together under the street lamp couldn't help but looked at them in surprise; Lin Sanjiu looked around and found them The target had disappeared, and he couldn't help frowning and asked the young man, "Did you see it?"

"No, no!" The young man gasped, "Did we get it wrong?"

Lin Sanjiu bit her lip, and for a moment suspected that she was wrong.After only coming out for a short while, her head and face were wet by the rain; as soon as she wiped her face, she was about to speak when she was suddenly cut off by a "Bah!"

A woman's hoarse voice sounded immediately, and as the door slammed open, they immediately turned their heads: "—I hate my old age, and you don't even look at how much money you are willing to pay! No money, you are still here!" What kind of gentleman are you pretending to be here!"

Lin Sanjiu turned her head and found a prostitute wearing a thin skirt, standing impressively at a newly opened door, cursing and wiping her tears as she walked out: "It's just a pig butcher, I still think staying overnight with you will stain my skirt!"

When she looked up in the night, revealing a relaxed and white face, it was Anne Chapman.

You read that right—it really was her, she didn't die!

Lin Sanjiu gasped, and subconsciously glanced at the young man.The latter seemed to be in great confusion at this time, just staring at the prostitute, unable to recover for a long time.

Anne Chapman, in an old faded dress, glanced at them, then turned and walked in the other direction, looking completely unharmed.Seeing this, Lin Sanjiu felt his mind was confused for a moment, and asked in a low voice, "What's going on here?"

"I-I don't know either," the young man said anxiously, not knowing whether he was happy or not: "...Could it be that the two brothers have nothing to do with Jack the Ripper? Well, in that case, we still have to continue follow her..."

Lin Sanjiu couldn't help becoming a little anxious, and when she looked up, she found that someone had talked to Annie first.A man was holding an umbrella at this time, standing in the shadow of the corner, his figure thickened into a black shadow; Annie said something to him in a low voice, then smiled, and put her arms sticky on the The man, the two disappeared behind the corner.

"Quick, let's hurry up!"

The young man jumped up as if he had been stabbed, and ran away; Lin Sanjiu rushed to the intersection, just in time to see Annie follow the unidentified man into a deep and dark path.

"Maybe that man is Jack the Ripper!" The young man was so excited that his voice was shrill, and before Lin Sanjiu could speak, he got into the alley first.

The alley was dark and gloomy, and the road under his feet could only be barely seen clearly by the dim light.The figure of the young man was not far ahead, almost too blurred to see, just walking forward in the darkness.

"After a circle, isn't this back to the starting point of last night?" Lin Sanjiu sighed, and then followed in.

Occasionally, the firelight from a low window on the path makes the place where there is no light even darker.Walking along the alley for a while, Lin Sanjiu didn't even know if she had turned a corner or stepped on a fork in the alley—she and the young man turned around in the strange and dark alley a few times, and even when she came from It's hard to tell which direction it's coming from.As for Annie and her guests, they have long since disappeared.

"Forget it," Lin Sanjiu was also a little frustrated. After all, she didn't care much about catching a serial killer hundreds of years ago.She rushed to the young man in front and whispered: "...how about we go back first?"

The young man's shadow nodded in the dark, and turned around silently, obviously disappointed once again.

There wasn't even a single lighted window on the way back.In the misty rain and fog, everything in Lin Sanjiu's vision was blurred into a mass of darkness; she and the young man groped in the dark, and had to avoid the sundries and puddles under their feet, walking very hard—— Looking at the intersection ahead, a ray of yellow light finally came through, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"It's almost time to go out," Lin Sanjiu couldn't help complaining, "To be honest, even if I see Jack the Ripper himself next time, I won't chase him into such an alley—"

Before she could finish her sentence, she suddenly heard a woman's scream in the distance, which made her jump. However, this time, before the scream disappeared, there were many footsteps, inquiries, and voices. Shouts came indistinctly, obviously causing quite a commotion.

Lin Sanjiu hurriedly quickened his pace and ran towards the intersection.On the road with street lights, many people gathered in panic at this time; when two men walking together hurried past the intersection, their conversations also drifted into her ears: "I heard that Another dead body appeared over there..."

Anne is dead after all!

If Annie was dragged away and killed as soon as she entered the alley, then the period of time she and the young man tracked was just right for her body to be abandoned on the side of the road and found by passers-by.

"It seems that we went in the wrong direction at the beginning, so that Jack the Ripper had enough time to kill—" Lin Sanjiu felt the young man approaching behind her, sighed and said half a sentence, then bowed his head As soon as he saw it, his throat froze.

There are already lights here.Her shadow, and another long shadow, were thrown into the puddles of the stone road together, being swayed by the raindrops; the other shadow had an extra hat shape on its head.

...and the young man, without a hat.
